It absolutely worked in Wildstar. Whatever you think of the game or its lack of commercial success, the in-game economy was vibrant and fairly booming. Luxuries were expensive, but never out of reach. And a CREDD could be easily bought by simply doing your dailies for not even a whole month. Sometimes the price went up, sometimes it went down, but it was never the horrific dystopia you seem to think it would be.
