I honestly can't decide whether I should take the offer I have on my account now, before CitCon, or hold out for the inevitable hype spike among the Faithful Citizens afterwards.

Today I've made my monthly donation to a local charity. I could have bought a constellation ship and cruise the 'verse with all the cool guys, instead some terminally ill child will be able to spend more time with their family. But hey, that child is going to die anyway, so next month I'm definitely buying the fastest and meanest jpeg of them all.

See you in the 'verse.

It just hit me in full how completely insane this ship pledge system is.

You'd better buy this ship for $900 now, because if you wait until the game comes out and you can actually fly it, it will cost either 10 hours of playtime or $5 in RMT spacegold to have the exact same ship.

It's like economic "The Happening" where CIG has found a toxin that reverses the time value of money in humans.

the canon response to this is people are happy to donate now because they're "investing in the game", so of course they wouldn't be expected to get their money's worth

but when you cross reference that with their comments whenever a ship is released (the endeavor is cheaper than I thought it was going to be! gotta buy it!!)...the two don't really square. some part of them absolutely thinks they're getting some kind of good return on their investment

it's got to be the result of marketing, propaganda, something, because the diehards have two mutually exclusive ideas in their head, but both of them are conducive to spending more on jpegs

it's p amazing psychologically speaking

literally any time i start getting used to the idea of sc in general, i like to remind myself that even if this game had released on time and under budget and was the top tier wow / halo / cod killing game of the decade, people have individually spent tens of thousands of dollars on video game star ships

i wonder if zynga’s CEO has just been watching all this and furiously taking notes

i also wonder how many of the whales have poo poo on people for buying things in f2p mobile games and their brains just never came within a country mile of connecting the irony
