Welcome back. While conversion rates suck in general. My sub went up $5. Do i think $15, much less $20 per month is too much? Yes, but ccp sees all the numbers and sees it as less players, higher subs, but its not working. I understand inflation and they have bills to pay too. But they need to find a happy medium to get more players without squeezing us dry.

Apparently, there are some Capsuleers who seem to be causing a ruckus in here on this thread.
It is fine to vent about a topic when at the end of the day we can just be friends and get along.

But we all too addicted.

im tryin elite dangerous at least you pay only once, now its 10$ on steam in special its better than that hostage situation with ccp. they got my patience and they wont get my wallet.
CCP once again using a dirty marketing trick to make more money.
By increasing prices then putting offers on they have a win win
It looks like they have given in a bit.
It creates buzz around a sale or bonus or other incentivized price while actually not affecting the bottom line. It takes advantage of saps willing to pay the higher price.
Over time they get to throttle down the incentives while keeping the high price effectively normalising the higher price and higher profits.
Never forget that CCP deal in digital assets that are massively marked up to start with and make insane money. While being exposed to minimal market fluctuations from things like materials supplies or supply chains. CCP had no financial pressure to increase prices. They just wanted to maintain profit increases.

ā¦you should be aware that digital assets are made by people who earn a salary which ideally should keep up the pace with cost of living, and the retail price for those digital assets hadnāt changed since 2003, quite unlike the aforementioned cost of living and salariesā¦
You should be aware that the devs earn susbantially more than players that are struggling to pay for bills and food rich girl.
Last time I checked, F2P games were plenty, and even EVE Online can be played for free.

Is that so? Did you do your research? What is āsubstantiallyā more in numbers - and relative to what?
(i find a number of under 40k dollars not that substantiallyā¦it is actually 5-15k lower than the average in the US or UK). And donāt forget, you have to relocate to iceland, which has high living costs.)
A: According to Iceland Statistics, the average salary in Iceland is ISK 635,000 (US 4,370 , EUR 4,200) before tax per month
Iām a returning player who was looking forward to getting back into Eve after a long breakā¦ but that subscription price is a no-go and is pure greed. Looks like I wonāt be returning after all, very disappointing tbh.
Yea alpha gets no respect, they get the 1400s up the ass.
Thereās a deal offering 3 months and skins for Ā£30.39.
It includes the MCT, so itās not really a discountā¦
