So... all those not specific kinds of players don't have alts that they plan to PLEX or that in a time that they are not so active ingame, due to RL issues or whatever In-Game issues even, they would not consider a 1.5 billion priced PLEX a deterrent ...

Let me tell you there is competition in the MMO scene out there too, and many of those are even free to play or something along those lines.

PLEX prices as well as monthly subscription prices do play a role for the majority of players.

Majority, minority, you have numbers to say so? Cool

Op,

Ignore the trolls. I just returned after a year absence and discovered the same thing. Although it was probably closer to 650 mil to 1 bill for plex, in my observations. And I recall logins of 50k+...now we're lucky to get 30k on the weekends.

Will I still play? Sure, for now. I have two accounts...Subbing one, and had some plex saved up for the 2nd account. Once that runs out though -- and I don't see myself being able to pay for a plex every month with isk -- let the trolls insult me and call me a newb, I dont care -- and once it runs out, both accounts are done and I'm outa here. Any serious Eve player needs two accounts, imho.

That, or I win the lottery. Cool

In eve fanfest every year ccp communicates that the majority of players lives in high sec and combined with other stats they consider them the specific kind of player . So alts or not accounts are affected by high PLEX prices. And yes i do believe they constitute the majority.

If you - nana - have numbers to prove that it is a minority, you're more than welcomed to share them with us.

Of course he has no numbers, it's just the usual whine.

When lousy 15 Bucks a month play a role for the majority of the players, said majority should get a better paid job and not waste their time playing video games anyways.

3. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.
