I disagree....ItGÇÖs better for CCP if plex goes down. CCP doesnGÇÖt get any additional income from the plex at higher prices just the opposite. They make their money regardless of what the plex sells for. The more isk a player gets for the plex the further it goes in game and the longer it takes till that player needs to buy another.
Higher plex doesnGÇÖt benefit CCP at all, their real money is already in the real bank.
If plex is costs more, more people buy more plex to sell on the market, ccp make more money. |

The price will start to crash as soon as plex hoarders start unloading anyway. Big isk will be made by the first to sell it all off, and big $$$ will be made by ccp in the buildup. And those who were too greedy and waited too long will probably make a loss.
I don't think we'll be seeing 300mil prices again anytime soon, but the rush to unload is going to leave alot of hoarders left in the dust as prices go down. Should be fun to watch  . |

Except when everyone stops buying plex because they refuse, or can't afford, to pay that much for it. Then people start abandoning their alts and CCP loses money.
True but lack of demand will cause the prices go down pretty rapidly. |

Yes, but will that be enough to make people want to dust off their inactive alts after they've become comfortable with using just one account again? I think the community would need some incentive, probably in the form of free game time (essentially countering the profits CCP have made from this current Plex boom).
This is all speculation though. I'm not an expert and I have no actual data. I'm sure CCP have spent many hours running the figures.
Depends how fast the markets react, but really I think the moment people stop buying, the price will go down so quickly to a level people are happy with that those alts won't have reached the end of their playtime before they get replexed. If theres as many stockpilers as people are saying the market will be flooded.
But yeah, speculation all round. |
