I don’t know why this guy is getting a hard time.

It’s a time of global pandemic. He’s decided not to sit idly by as so many do when there is real injustice in the world but presumably activate standing desk mode and expose CCP for what they are; a company out to make a profit

He’s got money to pay for his own account for years to come at the new price so this is truly a selfless act. Some might just vote with their wallet and stop paying but that’s pretty isk inefficient. You ever tried multiboxing alpha accounts?

He said CCP chose a really bad time for it. I’m paying the USD price but I agree with him. Now isn’t the best time for raising prices or making comprehensive changes to asset safety. Both needed to be done but done either last year or after the world is a lot less crazy.

Raising the price of a ■■■■■■■ computer game is not “real injustice”.

He didn’t expose anything. Most people (excluding you and the other daft one) know CCP is trying to make a profit; it is what companies do,

He did. And he is wrong about it. There is ALWAYS a reason to claim it isn’t the right time for a change in price.

>

Seriously. What is wrong with you people? If you can not (or don’t want to) pay the price for the game … go do something else. EvE is a product. Playing EvE is not a “right”.

I always thought Eve was a game for smarter than average folks. Then someone like you posts. As I said, I PAY the USD price, so your second point only means you couldn’t read my first comment.

You do understand what an unprecedented time we’re living through now, right? I think danger in citadel assets is LONG overdue but choosing this specific time was a douche move. A lot of people lucky enough to still have employment have been working 60-70 hour weeks to keep our companies running. Healthcare workers have been driven like slaves. Some of our cities have been burning. 20% of people employed three months ago are not any longer.

Goddamn, Do your mommy and daddy have so much money that this doesn’t even register with you living in their basement?

So what? I quote you again:

Please show me the relevance of you paying with funny money regarding your comment?

> [@Lucs\_Interior](#):

I couldn’t or I couldn’t be bothered? repeating the same thing doesn’t warrent more attention then I have shown you already.

> [@Lucs\_Interior](#):

Yes, I do. Please explain to me again in what way does this has anything to do with a change of pricing in a country that for years paid less than customers from other countries?

> [@Lucs\_Interior](#):
>
> choosing this specific time was a douche move.

No, it was not (in my opinion). Can’t pay for it, go elsewhere. It is really this simple.

> [@Lucs\_Interior](#):
>

And a lot of people didn’t have to. What’s your point?

> [@Lucs\_Interior](#):

And because of that CCP should raise their prices in Russia. Got it.

> [@Lucs\_Interior](#):

I don’t give a flying ■■■■ even if your entire god forsakken hellhole of a country ( yes, I mean the US) goes up in mushroom clouds.

Daft one? First off I could show you a fridge door covered in reports and certificates that say the exact opposite. Secondly, do you really have to start name calling when someone makes a point that proves you wrong mr smelly breath?

…and when people get really busy again, they will complain “Why didn’t CCP do it when so many people were at home?”

If you can’t afford a computer game’s price change then you probably should be playing it in the first place…

I have no way to pay for the game now. Also, as dozens of my friends do not, and the small Russian clan I played in will also not pay for an expensive subscription.

It’s not about the money. And the fact that more than half of the ru-community will leave the game. In Russia, the situation with money and work is bad due to the pandemic. To double the prices means to drive out Russian-speaking players, the same thing.

Some will remain, but the game will lose a solid layer of content, online and pvp.

Think about whether this will benefit the game. And it’s not about money at all.

The whole “Its not about the money” is commentary about the CCP attitude. People dont think its about the money but about driving out Russians.

I think CCP doesnt care about Russians and their money. Do they want intentionally to get rid of them? Rather not, but they still dont care about them.
