Will there ever be a reason for non-whale p2w players to purchase chromium?
There should be a means of leveling them outside of chromium once unlocked via chromium; even if it's only through shipments with crystals or a single hard node that only become accessible once the toon is unlocked via chromium.
I'm p2w, but I'm no whale. The current model discourages non-whale p2w players from purchasing chromium. As it is I have a significant advantage over f2p in both the depth of my bench and the speed of my advancement.
The ceiling should be the same for everyone. Even if that ceiling is glass due to the constantly expanding/evolving nature of this game. F2p will never be able to keep up with p2w as is. On the same track, p2w will never be able to keep up with whales. And that's all fine.
The gaming industry has shown that whales will still shell out thousands of dollars for vanity/cosmetic items. They'll also throw money at games to be at the top, cutting edge, of the current meta and new content. With regular releases of new toons, level caps, content, etc there is no need to gate toons to make money.
I WANT to buy chromium. But the current model discourages it. Will this change?
