Actually they don’t. CCP really is the master and PA the apprentice when it comes to expensive crap.
BDO makes money of selling digital, armored bikinis for 20 bucks and a tent.
There’s no real subscription with locked skill levels or locked content over there, just stuff that boosts your leveling speed for a while.
I will be destroying at least 50bn in materials alone not to mention BPs and such, just the rocks. Screw them.
Thats true and a very valid point. However to my knowledge, only one game on there benefits from multiple accounts being subscribed and thats EVE. True, not much in the long term but when you look at people with just a second account, thats $60 more. And it keeps going higher.
yeah as someone who is an in-game plexer because irl $$ issues, this will be a massive hike in plex prices and will become unachievable. The grind for isk to plex is already making the game far less fun, this will be the headshot that downs it.
Considering that most EvE players have more than one account, this price increase is difficult to digest.
Even if the price increase is lower due to the negative feedback (e.g. €16 or €17), I fear that the next increase will come at some point and the game will die because the existing players will stop and no new ones will be added.
For this reason I will unfortunately have to look around for a new game after 16 years if there is a price increase of any kind, because I fear this development and I want to forestall it.
Hoping that this decision will be reconsidered by CCP…
I was just thinking of using the discounted Omega price for a month and see how it goes from there… and then I saw this. I’m a casual player and this price is a bit too much for me 
Although, I understand… everything is raising in price, unfortunate that this had to result in the Omega price also going up. I wish they had chosen a different approach for raising more money.
You butchered your ■■■■■■■ game and now want to raise prices. What are you smoking? Deliver new content and you’d at least be able to debate the merits of an increase… But you’ve actively REMOVED content the last few years.
■■■■ YOU you’ll NEVER get my subs again.
you know that they announced it on Friday afternoon so they can just go home and just not read the shitstorm they created and hope we all gonna forget about it by Monday ?
Part of why the dual-black-shirt Meta Show tomorrow that @Brisc_Rubal mentioned will be so much fun. Cowards gonna coward.
So rediculously sad that the only think to look forward to in eve has ZERO to do with the game developers or the game itself; its player run content on a streaming platform.
Good luck to your first Omega.
wow at least has a proper dollar to euro conversion so it comes cheaper for me at ~12.99
Complains about world and in game inflation:
Adds Alphas (using the same amount of hardware/support resources as a paying player and pumping more isk into the in game economy)
Blackout (Thousands quit)
Scarcity ( Causes thousands more players to quit, lowering their income even more)
Bad design choices
Selling in game assets for real money
Hikes price by 30% ahead of all other MMOs with more content and player base (and healthier communities)
I wonder who has these ideas…
Actually, they do. THEY have at least cosmetics but also a Premium Account system that lets you life skill much easier. And that’s pretty much it. But the Premium Account system runs on a subscription. So much for your Masters that are shooting themselves in their own bloody leg because their financial dep is too dense to work in the game industry
there, 8 accounts finally unsubbed
between my father, my twin and myself we are unsubbing 18 accounts I wish I could say it’s been fun, but the last few years with CCP being themselves it’s been a real drag. I sincerely hope they are in full panic mode right now.
It took us like 45 minutes to unsub them all with the servers being so bogged down.
Bet you never thought star citizen was going to be the bargain space game. I can go pay 3 months of eve online up front with new prices to get a ship and new content every year.
Players still life skill a lot in BDO? The game is all about end game loot drops. Oh well, I guess if players want to sub there, they can.
ISD’s trying to moderate all the posts
CCP –
You only know me for the money I have spent with you.
For that lone reason you must really love me a lot.
I struggle with this love because, it feels fake, scripted and terribly inconsistent.
Love shouldn’t feel this way…
You gave me an opportunity to climb many obstacles and achieve amazing accomplishments I only dreamed were possible in EVE.
Every step of the way, you made it harder for me though. Your communication was poor, Your empathy was non-existent and you struggle to be consistent on almost every topic you share with me.
I would train my skills in one direction only to learn for the past year, we were going a different direction with our relationship. This happened more than once to be just bad luck…
Each night I went to bed feeling tomorrow will be the day where we will be in sync with each other.
You have shown zero compassion to my feelings and when you disappointed me, you asked me to work harder, understand, be flexible and most importantly trust you.
Every time I try to live up to the direction you are taking EVE, I have been abused.
Today, I wake up to find out, you expect me to pay more for this lifestyle in EVE.
What will I get in return that is different than the abuse I have taken for years?
I hope you are not the jealous type because, the friends I have made in EVE are still together but, just not in your game as much as we once were…
