Thread: 4.2 changes & monthly fee

If you feel you're not getting your money's worth the best option is to vote with your wallet and unsub. For those of us who enjoy the game, we're staying subbed. Myself included. Sure, I'll balance it out with other games but even with all these supposed "price hikes", I still feel like I'm getting my money's worth. So I'm staying subbed. What's that phrase again... "You don't pay my sub!"

Nope. Not likely to happen, and IMO doesn't need to. The restriction is being placed to improve quality of life/gameplay for everyone.

Makes me think, what if SE were to quadruple the service fee for those who had hoarded houses? So from £8.99/mth to £35.96/mth. Of course, we'd probably need popcorn for the ensuing rage, but aside from that I wonder what would happen?

Lol, yes! If they'd treat extra housing like they do retainers and charge $2 per estate, the grandfathered hoarders would start dropping plots like hot potatoes once they were informed their monthly sub would be around $150. Now that would be a show, lol!

I think he's talking about the recent drama with item codes from physical merch, not cash shop items. Those have always been presented as account-wide, until recently when SE literally ninja-edited pages on their physical merchandise site to accommodate the sudden change, and were caught in the action by the playerbase. I want to say there's been an apology sent out since, but that no changes have been made to the items to make them account-wide again. Anyhow, it's a subject for another thread.

I don't understand how you came up with this assertion. The only chance it removes is that you (general you, of course) can make tons of in-game money by buying up and then price-gouging the playerbase for houses that would otherwise be up for grabs at their intended values, or the ability to decorate an entire ward as you please with absolute privacy. The chances it would give are to average players and FCs who want housing access but don't have time to level every crafter and corner every market on their server just to scratch up enough to afford housing in a game where the devs originally intended houses to be worth no more than the in-game prices they're set at.
