Hey there, happy to have you in our community.
I will try to clarify some things.
Since "Scars of Honor" will be absolutely free-to-play, without any kind of pay-to-win mechanics, we are featuring an online store for cosmetics, mounts (which are purely cosmetic, and don't give advantage), and other things to be added, because we will need to sustain ourselves in some way, and this is the least harmfull for the players.
The in-game mounts will be earned through interesting quest chains, will feature interesting mechanics and you will be able to breed them into different species.
For me that is amazing, but there are players that will focus on other aspects of the game and won't bother to breed mounts and etc.
You will be able to experience "Scars of Honor" fully in whichever way you like. The only difference between you and the player who bought a mount will be in the skin of that said mount, but you will have the satisfaction of going on a "Journey" to get that mount, and you will have a bigger bond with it š
thanks for response...
That makes sense, not gonna lie.
