Compromise: Just Charge $5 For Now. Once 2.0 is Out, Then Charge $12

[whoopeeragon]

I wonder just how many people are sitting here laughing so hard at the pure absurdity of certain branches of coversation going on in this thread. And I see JackDaniels to be exposing his 'more words no action' motto over this thread as well.

Ignoring the economic side of things, it really is a matter of personal mentality. Some are of the opinion that version 2.0 is 50% complete, whereas the current version is near to acceptable launch level, as I also believe. We believe that, short of a few things which hinder our enjoyment which won't be fixed until 2.0, that the current game is playable for the full cost, as we mentally envision this game to not have any correlation with the next version in playable immersion. We enjoy what is being offered as a wholely game in itself, without thinking of the effect with the next version. Put into exaggeration, we believe the version 2.0 to be a completely new game to start off with, while the current game is whole to itself.

We then have the other group, which believe that we should pay only half or a compromised price for a game they feel is unfinished or not to the standard they expect. Different opinions are everywhere; what may seem better may be unpolished in another's eyes. (I believe Belial and Sierra made a point about this.) They also believe that with the advancement of the next version, what we do now is -kind of- obsolete and thus should not deserve the full price. In exaggeration, they believe the current game and the new vesion to be the same, with the latter being the true beginning of the game.

These are just the extremes; there exist many of you who will sit in the gray area between the two. I'm partially like that, though as I said, I swing more to the former group.

So which group is correct? Both of them, and none of them. It depends on how well you justify your mentality. Renta's done a pretty good job; some others also have. Others, however, have yet form their own cohesive ideal; others have chosen to express pure negativity or positivity, others yet again join in bandwagons without proof of why and how they came to that particular aspect. I would advice those of you to do so and just think and justify why you came to your conclusion. Inappropriate responses will be, for example, nearly all of JackDaniels' posts for the past twenty pages, as well as stoned's purely negative, insulting, harsh and cutting mutterings which provide no substantial feedback and information whatsoever. Think on what it is you try to say, envision your mentality, justify it, accept that others will have differing opinions, and learn to compromise.

From a thought process perspective, that's my opinion in a nutshell.

For the economic side of things, I leave it to you adults who have more experience regarding businesses and finance than a teenager like me.
