its simple really. if i stole 10c from you probably think meh, if i stole half your life savings, that you worked hard for, and its going to take a long time to get back then that’s going to make a difference.
lets not be silly here, you know when you scam 10,20,40 bill its going to affect someone
its not fake money is it, its made from subs that they pay with real money, its plex they may have bought with real money, its months of playing time and effort.
Yes, it is. It only has any value inside EVE. Nobody outside of the game gives a ■■■■ about your ISK. You can spend $ to get ISK (via PLEX), but you can’t spend ISK to get $. ISK is literally worthless outside of EVE.
I spent real money to buy the board game monopoly. That doesn’t make the money in the box real. I’m paying the money for the enjoyment of playing the game… not the fake money in the box.
It’s a sandbox GAME. They enjoy the game by trying to steal your pretend money. You enjoy the game by trying to exploit wormholes for pretend money. Some people enjoy the game by building pretend space empires.
It’s either fun and you play… or it’s not and you don’t. The pretend currency of the game still isn’t real.
