Forum Thread: Free user or paid user?

Do you spend money on Ninja Saga? I personally haven't found much problems playing the game to the best of its ability as a free user, but perhaps it becomes more useful as you get to higher levels.

Apparently you can spend money on "emblems", which in turn make you a paid user for as long as you have a Ninja-Saga account. These emblems can be used to purchase special areas, quests, items, and skills.  

What are your thoughts? Are the emblems worth it?
