The economy is not broke

I have heard a lot about the economy being broken. And plenty of ideas as to how to fix it. Here’s an idea! (Little bit of tough love for some, but some of yall need to snap out of the old ways)

“The economy is not broke. Your prices are too high.”

I get your opinion but I can only assume that part of this is a result of my post since a few people posted the same thoughts.

Jump Starting The Economy

Well, there became a surplus of materials and a shortage of coin and people, so everything dropped in price hard and no longer felt worth acquiring to buy or sell. Newcomers became scarce so low end items lost even more value. The forging changes made it possible for newer players to get into forging MUCH easier, but 100% did not change the fact that lower tier tools are not very useful once you start using titanium and gems. I mean, that’s just how any game is. But as a result there’s not…

In transparency my post was a result of talking to James during an Oortian call where we discussed the economy. They have metrics that show various things around this and felt work needed to be done regarding the economy. So whether you want to use the work “broke” or “jump start” or whatever, it IS something that the developers will be working on.

The problem does go beyond “prices” and the data proves that. Obviously an honest conversation about prices is welcome so I am not disputing your post. But, I don’t think it is fair to say it is “not broke” when data and others feel that the economy could be better.
