I do appreciate your reply , and I certainly understand the need for balancing . But I would have to respectfully disagree on some of your points.
Paying $20 for an expansion, to me anyways, was a little steep. I'm not an Arabian prince so dropping hundreds or even thousands on a browser game or any game for that matter is out of the question. But a $20 here and there was doable, because I do like the game and I do find it enjoyable.
But now we're talking $50 to $80 bucks for enough space for one or two culture buildings? I understand that with time the same can be accomplished, what I don't understand is pricing the general public out of being able to or even wanting to continue playing the game at the speed or pace they choose to or can afford to play. If there goal is making money, and I'm sure it is, they would be wise to execute their business model they way they are asking players to play the game ... slow and steady .
See , instead of taking my money a little at a time and providing me the opportunity to keep enjoying the game at the pace I prefer , they have opted to price me and many others out of enjoying the game at the pace we would prefer or rather at the pace our wallets would allow . They are dictating how we the public should enjoy the game ... at their pace and at their price. have they read these post ? It aint working. In fact its rather insulting. It really does want to make you say 'piss on this. Quite frankly I'm almost there, don't want my money , Ok , want me to play slow , Ok , I can do that too .
Its only costing them revenue and making me find other ways to spend those gaming moments. People are not going to keep playing/paying under these terms . I want to buy their premium content and I'll even suck it up and givem a little for the space to put it , but now its just taking advantage of the customer and everyone knows it . Balancing is one thing ... being reasonable is another, the only thing this price hike is balancing is INNO's bank account , that and the numbers of free players vs the number of players saying .. "ehhh na I'm not payin that. Simply put, its going to turn Pay players to Free players . Don't believe me ? read this thread again , it already has .
