You're the crown's shop customer, what do you want to see?

**Dylan Windwalker** · 1-29-23, 11:44:09 PM

Another hot take, I don't think there's enough feedback about the Crowns Shop. What do you like about it? What would you change?
I'm not necessarily just talking about the products (things you can buy) in the crowns shop, I'm also including an opportunity to talk about the Crowns Shop Menu and the "Daily Spiral". And the sales themselves, are they ever what you're looking for? What should Ki do aside from lowering the prices of the products that would make you more likely to purchase the products that they're selling?

If there's anything you want to say about the Crown Shop, speak now or forever hold your peace (or something like that, Idk lol)

I mean goodness, I feel like the Crowns Shop has been the same for over a decade now, maybe it's time for a makeover...

Take out the gambling that exists in a game marketed towards children. This is by far the most immoral thing that KI engages in and it is utterly indefensible. There are plenty of loot sources that could drop these things instead.

That's it, really. I'm not one to spend extra on a game for cosmetics or XP boosts or whatever. I guess you could also give the Daily Spiral screen a button to teleport to the Daily Assignment and for them to not be tied to the same teleport cooldown as the Commons/Home teleport.

I do not want to see the stormrider hare in the crown shop ever again. It should never have been there to begin with. Capitalizing on the mount that was dedicated to Lady Stormrider has and always will be a disgraceful move in my opinion.

Thanks to this thread from @Pegasus Unbound, that issue has been resolved. The Mount was removed from the Crown Shop, and it should not happen again.

There is one very important addition that is needed in the interface: Add a prominent tab so players can filter items by “available for gold.” From the beginning, item prices have defaulted to crowns in the display. Gold prices in a category don’t show up until you click on a slightly highlighted tab for one item. Deliberate design or not, this can be misleading, especially for young players, as getting the gold prices to show up is not an obvious process.

I would go one step further - move the gold items to a vendor in game and slim down the crown shop inventory. I'm sure they get the occasional sale from those who don't know to check or forget to check but is it really that much?

I wish the window wouldn't pop up on every new login but I can live with that. I do like having the current quest, Majid, and other game navigation there. I wish they'd implement the search box in the Bazaar...

Well aligning with others. I want to see more items being available to purchase with gold, even after 14 years we can't get a perm mount with gold.
I don't want to see any of those 22-30k super bundles.. you know the ones that have like 5 mounts and 15 housing items in them. If KI is going to do those then we should be able to buy those items separately.

There are mounts available for gold, but they're the original ones from when it first came out (horse, tiger, lion). I would really love to see more mounts available for gold, however, or maybe even the occasional select mounts available for gold (on a rotation basis so that we're not stuck with the same ones every time!) every so often throughout the year.

I'd add cheaper prices, but that's a dream.

When i first played someone gifted me enough gold (another story as I usually do NOT ask for gifts nor will I say yes to such but what am I supposed to do if someone just decided to gift me . There currently is no refuse button for such gifts.)to get a perm. mount.There are a few perm. Mounts in the crown shop that you can buy with gold. it is you can NOT gift someone just using gold. Everything is listed with crowns first then an option for gold. HOWEVER there were two mounts for gold option that were removed. and there were NO additional perm. mounts you could buy with gold since at least 2011. they at one point added crafted mounts. there are some mounts in there that should be CRAFTED .

personally they should omit any mounts and pets in packs . Well at least any future packs coming out and just have them in the crown shop. and KI will not lower prices. Fortunately they never raised prices either. All such pets and mounts should be in the crown shop. unless you have a pity system imposed on the packs of no less than 50-100 tries per account. that should be about 19k to 30k crowns. because you have youtube reviewers putting in about 60k of crowns and either they couldn't get choice items or near maxed out the budget.

Wait, so they put it in the crown shop a second time!? I was referring to the time they did it last year, but that's insane to think they did it again, knowing full well there was backlash here on central the first time they put that bunny bundle out.
