When people need to bot in a game just to enjoy it? They needed to find a new game a LONG time ago...
I don't think it's about stimulation, the farther you go in game, the more useful you find focused characters. Just like real life, one character cannot be good at everything, at least not for many years. That depth is what keeps people playing long term. Not to mention, if you live in 0.0, alts are a requirement....Unless you like going to highsec and dying to the constant wardecs. And then listening to your corp/alliance and leadership tell you what a dumbass you are...
So, I guess if you ever leave highsec, you'll understand....

You really think CCP can afford a 20% hit in subscriptions?

The botters live off Plex....people are buying and hoarding more Plex than are used already, so CCP is making their money regardless. I think both of you are missing the fact that this "20%" figure is something made up on the spot by a botter trying to defend his own actions, with no evidence to support it.20% is a lot. It's 1-in-5. Do you really think 1-in-5 people who play this game bot? If there are more than 4 people in your corp, I'd be concerned if I were you...
Your not looking at it correctly....
Perhaps the actual number of people might be 5%. But most botters I've seen or heard of don't limit themselves to one bot. They have 5 or 10, or 50. So you can take that 5%, which is probably low and multiple it by 10 accounts on average..... Looking to stamp out apiphobia in my lifetime..... |
