After 2.5+ long years of playing this game.. it has changed a lot.

MTS has made meso and nx basically the same but in different currencies, and obviously people who pay money should get the benefits, keeps the game free for those who don't. If you don't want to pay money but think it's unfair that people who do pay money get the benefits, it just means you're too lazy to MTS nx for yourself. Hunt time pieces at oblivion 4 to convert to meso then to stuff to sell in MTS, or if you're not strong enough for that, sweep 19 channels of kimeras with cassandra's 2x drop, you're bound to find a 60% overall scroll to net a good 2k-3k nx every time. I haven't spent a cent on this game since MTS was released yet still find this game fun.
