Thread: paying for items.

Hybrid View

  1. #1

    Default paying for items.

    I would like to know people views on paying for cents.

    My view is that it is unfair ( yes i know it is how the game makes money) but people that have more money the other people gain more advantage over other players. You can tell who these people are because they build faster and have about 20000 prestige before their beginner protection have been taken off.

    I am not saying that they should stop selling cents but i feel that people that don't buy them should be given other rewards to try give them a chance.

    Debates welcome.

    You can play this game just fine for free.

    Cents are the option for the r33t powergamers who think they are getting ahead by spending their money on pixels.

    thats not true of all players.... and i hate hearing poor/lazy kids say this because they cannot afford it.


    I have extra money that i would waste on beer/games anyway. But because im playing THIS game, i spend 0 dollars this month on new games...

    so instead i donate that money to this game, because its provided me with 30 bucks worth of entertainment.

    thats the long and short of it with me. I donated the cash because the game entertained and is worthy of my money.


    Granted lately though, with this lag.........

    Nail on the head right there for most of the mature gamers i would wager. Besides one thing cents cant buy is skill so does it really matter?

    Hey, I has 25K prestige before my BP was up, and I didn't spend a dime until weeks later... and when I did it was the mini premium rewards, hehe.

    lol.

    you do realize evony exists for the company to 'make money' and not for your enjoyment right? so while you 'can' enjoy the game for free... they can and will do everything in their power to encourage people to spend money.

    just be gratefull you have a free non subscription based game to play.

    I had about 60-70k prestige when I took my BP off and I took it off 2 days early, never bought any cents, and never won anything good from wheel cept for penicillin

    And I had to walk uphill every day both ways in the snow from my bed to my computer
