[_I_] Nibenay78 Players 3,266 posts 27,734 battles Report post #126 Posted August 1, 2021 I'm surprised why people bother discussing why WG charges differently in the various regions. They charge the price that they think should give maximum profit based on buying power. (Edit: and then it is up to each of us to decide to buy or not for the adverticed price.) I dont care what RU prices are but I am surprised why anyone would pay over €100 in EU for a pixelship. I would be more tempted to buy a starship in Star Citizen, knowing full well that it will not be released in our lifetime :D 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm done spending money on a product that the owner is doing it's level best to ruin (imho). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can only drink 10 beers a day, so the rest of the money you can spend on obscenely priced russian paper ships I can easily drink 20 beers per day and if I start early enough, maybe 30. But that's not the point. The point is, everything should be calculated in "joy per penny". AKA in beers. Now, for a good and entertaining ship (say: Ark Royal, or something) I'll buy it on discount for about 10 beer. I'm willing to give 10 beers to WeeGee to have some fun. Like a bet with some mate, that he can do (this or that), ten beers. Or a round at the bar. It will be enjoyable at the moment, we'll have a few good laughs later, maybe remember and LOL again in a few months. I dunno what that mate would have to do to earn a 100 beers... I have an idea but I'd better not put it here. 100 beers, would be like you have a party and YOU buy all the beer. WeeGee doesn't produce anything THAT good. Certainly ONE ship cannot be worth that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
