Effect of IRL Recession on MMOs??
|
|
The only MMORPG that I play is the Entropia Universe, so with other games I have no idea how the IRL recession has impacted them, specifically those with a real cash economy.
I have seen how it has impacted the EU a little bit. The game is by no means dying but the value of some things has gone down and things have slowed a bit for some.
Being a very active trader, and runing a soceity that has traders, pilots, shop owners, land owners, stylists, employees, event promoters, crafters, hunters, miners, etc etc, I see how it has affected some groups of people. I also think we are very near the bottom of the devaluation of items. I suspect in about 1-2 months we will see things starting to stabalize and go back up but in a more slow and healthy way.
What have the rest of you seen? |
