Cash for SP is just a matter of time. New players can only be attracted if they don't have to spend a couple years training skills. The removal of the learning skills was the first step into that direction, buying SP with cash straight up rather than the current way of cash for PLEX for ISK for SP (character) is the next step.
The only people who are opposed to that are those who don't have disposable RL income because they are simply too inept at life to generate such income. That's not the target audience of CCP in either case, especially since all you do will be raging instead of just walking away. Even if you walk away your $15/mo will be replaced with hundreds of $ per month from people who are willing and able to shell out cash for a game.
So yeah, go suck an egg you poor bastards. Wellfare epics -> that way!
Agreed.
The people who don't generate any cash flow for CCP are customers who can easily be forgotten...
Yeah like everyone in null sec who pays for their subscription via PLEX, they don't make any income for Eve at all.
In fact if they made Eve back to subscription only then your argument would also hold some sway.
Then there is the argument when this comes in, the point of Eve play becomes what exactly ?
$ -> SP leads to quick end game,, what exactly is the point of this "idea" other than making a quick buck and then not having a game at all.
Most people who play games don't have real life responsibilities, they are either kids or adults with time on their hands.
I would much rather go do some over time, go on holiday, go pick up a girl, go do an adrenaline sport, run a business, go drink beer, go do practically anything at all than spend more than a few 10's of $ a month on fail entertainment. Only a social failure would want to spend hundreds of $ on a waste of time. Eve is a replacement for TV,, that's all for me.
Suggest you go lookup the terms sport and game in a dictionary, maybe then you can actually understand what you are posting about.
If you didn't realise it already playing Eve as a game is supposed to be a journey of discovery of choice, enjoying the content on the way. There IS some merit in saying new char content does not exist and established ISK earning is being hogged -> here there really is an issue.
In other words, many games in one universe, your suggesting there is only one game and that is Titans,, epic failure.
Your point is even more laughable when you consider SP for $ is already there, go sell plex and buy a char in the char bazzare and feel the pointlessness of your spent $.
I guess your just bored.
