Every thread seems to get hijacked by by the cult of Lucas and his 100 alts, pretending to care sooooo much about noobs and what is good for the gameā€¦when really all we are getting is a 700 post diatribe about what would make _your_ game nicer, and the sheer pretence that this is a ā€˜discussionā€™ when you show zero sign of listening to what anyone else says. ---

> [@Arya\_Yeshe](#): > > The real problem is economical, ingame Omega time tied to inflated PLEX In one sense I havenā€™t felt too badly the inflation because I have been in eve a long time so Iā€™ve accumulated much and have the skills to build pretty much everything, I bought/buy most material in bulk long ago so inflation for me hasnā€™t bothered me too much. But on the other hand most newer player would definitely feel the pinch and thus more upset when losing stuff to others, then looking at the prospect of spending RL money when things are already tough for most people, I can see why so many people donā€™t see long term gain in this game and choose to cut losses. ---

Yeap, thats my point! In the past a newcomer grindy player could grind that ISK doing generic stuff for 20-30 hours for the PLEX and maybe save some ISK. Now a newcomer would need +100 hours. So that profile of player wonā€™t stay in EVE anymore, this puts one more nail in EVEā€™s coffin. ---

I dont actually usually advocate a ā€œget with the program or get out stanceā€, butā€¦ If people think EvE is a game you can succeed at, or compete in, or rise to the top at, they _should_ quit. EvE is about surviving. Thats why its so unpleasant an experience to play. ---

Thats why its so unpleasant an experience to play. I totally agree. And its about whether one survives by just sitting in dock or by going out and taking risk. People seem to want that ā€™ I am a survivorā€™ feeling without ever _doing_ anything that would have put their survival at risk. Medals merely for attending. ---

Iā€™m no game design expert, but isnā€™t it a bad thing for a game to be an unpleasant experience to play? ---
