Not objectively, seeing how both are valued in RL money.
As in my own preference I agree with you 100% though.

Wanted to lock but seems the last posts got the thread back on track. So let's see, maybe someone is going to add some nice ideas here.

Teleskop, you either start engaging in meaningful discussions, without the insults and without the excessive shitposting, highlighting and whatnot, or you can take a longer time out. (Don't use this thread to argue about that. There is a moderation thread if you feel inclined to complain)

Maybe what they could do is remove subs and increase verification price but make it so that verify gives you unlimited hours then maybe in combination with cosmetics jorb and loftar could make enough money although i still don't see the problem with subs.

I was giving my own opinion. I don't care much for the cosmetic items, but the ability to play whenever I want without constraint to me is worth paying for, but I understand how it's an issue for some.

That's not constant income

It depends on how many new players haven could get per day if it stays relitavely low then yes it wouldn't be constant but i like to think that this game will exponentially grow in time.

Haven bleeds players as worlds progress

And my village's weekend killing-sprees definitely don't help ¦]

Personal opinion here:

Cosmetic only games rely on huge playerbases. Haven does not have that, and due to the niche nature it's unlikely it ever will. I've supported a sub model for the game since long before the devs decided to monetize it, devs need to eat so they can keep making awesome stuff.

I'm perfectly happy with the state of affairs so long as the devs feel they're making enough to live off of.
Lucky: haven is so quirky
Lucky: can be so ugly, can be so heartwarming
