Black Friday store sales are rather meh. Market sales are fine.
Will there be cyber Monday sales?
yea, nothing to entice me back. Maybe next year.
/Off to spend a bunch of cash on art software, instead.

When I look at what other games are offering or doing for this weekend it makes these meh deals and bonuses feel even worse than they are. Welcome Back Weekends, free access, discounted annual subscriptions, deep discounts on even the newest expansions, character deals and so forth.
In a quick survey of my guildies, hundreds/thousands in lost revenue.

I was ready to spend up to $250 today- sadly this sale is not exciting at all. I don't intend to buy ANYTHING based off this **BLACK FRIDAY SPECIAL !!**
Why don't you ever do anything new or exciting ? Back in Spring, Saltmarsh was 50% off and the other 2 were 75%.
I don't understand SSG at all. I have 15 guildies-most of them whales who feel the same. Do they know they have customers who want to spend money? Do you know how much money you've left in our pockets ??

Sigh same here.
Also would have loved the Trove at 99 points / free quests to onboard my box characters.
Gonna spend elsewhere :(

I would have bought Sharn, but the DDO market STILL does not accept paysafecard as a payment method, even though the DDO store does when you want to purchase points. It also does not accept debit cards such as those issued to pretty much anyone who opens a bank account in Europe. I'm not going to get a credit card just for this, give us more options and make it easier for us to give you our money!
As for the store sales, I guess I'll grab the iconic aasimar unless I already have it.

Black Friday sales are often pretty meh.. they save the best for Christmas
And for the love of the game.. put Trove in every big sale (Summer, Black Friday and Xmas)

There are some MMO's that if you buy the newest expansion, it gets you caught up with all the previous expansions giving them to you for free . Forgot if it was World of Warcraft and or Everquest a while back when it was still going strong. I think there are others ones as well.

In the past SSG offered 50% off +8 Supreme / Upgrade Supreme Tomes, and had Otto's Boxes in the store and all "not the latest" expansions were at least 50% off during Black Friday Sales.

Wow does it , ESO vip gives everything up to latest expac , ff14 just gave their latest expac at 50% off. most mmos want their game to thrive and make money , the only mmo that went down SSG's marketing path was warhammer and we all know how that ended. DDO's server population is historically low and i don't think it's any fault to the player base here really.

Well, guess we should make a post in a Karen style asking for the marketing manager.
Bad jokes aside, for real, it seems they don't want to get our money
