i think the NA players probably sub or at least verify. i get the feeling alot of the Russian/polish/Ukrainian guys might rely on tokens due to cost of the subs and they also make up like over half of the player base. i think the number of active subscribers is not that high. they probably make less than you think.

I'm pretty sure 90+% of faction players have sub one way or another

Combination of rich players and poor players as well means there's an ingame demand for tokens and there's a steady supply of tokens, of which the value is determined by how many people buy them

So you have a constant influx of tokens from buyers etc. and basically everyone is subbed I'd say

They make a good amount probs

Btw this is a typical dumb western question...cause we were brought up to think at this way.
An interesting thing is , for example, that Bhutan has GNH (Gross National Happiness) instead of our GNP (Gross national product).
Now, videogames this days are most of all products to make money from.....and one of the reason why I love this game is exactly cause HnH is one of those that doesn't think at this way.....and there are very few of them.
Not everyone use money to estimate the quality of life, but we, dumb western populations, cannot even understand this concept nowdays.

Yeah it's a eastern philosophy, and we know they are more clever on a lot of things than us....if we have some guys from there they could explain us a bit more about that.
P.S. Btw this is related to Customs Clients matter also.....make it easier to "win".....typical western mentality....pretty dumb, to me.

The need for domination makes a lot of sense in every way, it's not just "western mentality", I can guarantee you everyone likes to win

Useless I'll try to explain you in English language, if we could speak in Italian I could try to explain you why....but in English I have no hope trying to explain you.
Btw your answer is exactly the common western mentality.

Meh.


Now we assume non PVP servers would prolly would bring in a good portion of steady income we already have the answer that the goal is neither a steady income nor to serve fun to non PVPers too ...

... while i'm still not sure if there are just 2 more guys wasting their overwhelming talents by simply mirroring the shithole RL is ...

my personal solution: i don't want to waste my time on that anymore and drowned my chars today

Meh too

I like how people think there are sub tokens everywhere like coins and everyone has a sub as a result.

If only it was true.
