Holly Longdale

That will always be its primary focus And then, on the other hand, we're trying stuff. They're not very vocal, but there are some players that ask, 'I don't have time to get all my Tender, I'd buy some of this stuff,' and so, you know, we try it out.

Comment by dabone1337'I don't have time to get all my Tender, I'd buy some of this stuff,'Comment by SinfusionGive us more for completing it so we can buy everything then. Complete corporate bull$%^& to say they're a "catchup"Comment by primalmatterbro... just admit its a shop you gotta have a better excuse then " some players just dont play the game but want rewards" to cover it lol.Comment by LandaiIf it's an "experiment" for those who don't have the time to play, then why don't they count towards the monthly cap?

It's because they want to make more money off their playerbase, otherwise there wouldnt have been a price increase on the latest transmog set.Comment by RahfalzIf it's only to help, put a cap on how many you can get per month to be equal to what completing the log for the month would give. So no matter what, whether you pay or earn, one cannot be higher than the other.

They will not do this though.Comment by GornondThe thing has always been that there's not nearly enough tender given to even buy a third of the months stuff, not that there's not enough time to do itComment by scopel'I don't have time to get all my Tender, I'd buy some of this stuff,'Comment by cheesystuffThis is an admission that the bundles were always about the tenders and not the transmogs.Comment by AerisotOhh, she $%^&ed up...Comment by PhanderaWell, sucks to be those players. They should play the game if they want nice things. Used to be such a simple concept.Comment by BenjenIf Holly told me she was a compulsive liar, I'd not know whether to believe her or notComment by KongStewieIt’s funny how they managed to hear this part of: “They’re not very vocal, but there are some players that ask”Comment by nytroman30 days to finish 1000 points of the trading post , sorry but you have plenty time to do it, especially if you check beforehand which task to do, its just BS to say that to justify the implementation in the shopComment by SoulebreakerIt's gonna be like the store. The store started out for charity and when that became accepted and comfortable, it became full blown. Eventually they'll ease in tenders on their own.Comment by SrelathonIf that was actually the case then they would be putting the tenders into the shop directly and not into bundlesComment by voreoJust throw tenders on everything on the store.
(And give them to people who already bought things)Comment by 0wlerI'd like to see who is sad they couldn't complete in a month what is doable by most players in a few hours.

It's ok to admit to want more money, but at least be honest. I don't believe a single letter of "Some people don't have time to complete the challenges"Comment by ZymtexOkay, so basically her statement is: "So, yea, some players are not able to collect tender that only take 3 hours max to complete in a timespan of a WHOLE MONTH. so we gonna help!". I'm sorry, but what kind of bad lie is that? And if there are really people, who can't complete this work of 3 hours, they shouldn't be able to get the items they want.Comment by dankmaymay88"dont have time to complete the monthly log"
this has to be the most hilarious excuse ive seen in a minute
this thing completes itself passively while playing within 5-10 hours of playtime
if you "dont have time" to play an MMORPG for 10 hours a month then just quit it, my man.Comment by Rellynehahaha it's always that "someone asked me".

It's just a store on top of another store.
