[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 9450118, member: 6801845"] Whales account for 60-70% of the money spent on online games (at a guess, it depends on who you ask). But guess what? You don't personally have to spend more than you want to. That could be $0, it could be a basic subscription whatever that is. But if you do get just the basics those whales are in essence subsidizing you. Meanwhile, in order to stay afloat they also have to have a fairly broad base of players so that the whales still keep spending. So for those that don't want all the extra visual bling, it can actually be a decent deal. Unlike video games there will be no way to get anything that actually more effective, you will have enough basic stuff to run a game and can always fall back on 2D image files. I fail to see what your concern is. I could go to a car dealership right now and spend more money on a car than most people earn in a year. Doesn't mean I'm going to do it. [/QUOTE]
