You're actually WAY wrong about that. The average age of the typical gamer is 33 years old and has been playing games ~12 years. If you're gonna quote facts, pull 'em from the web, not out of yer butt.

Interesting link, now I want to see such a statistic for european contrys.

imho, it looks very similar to the us statistics but who can say without proof

I won´t compare EU to other MMOs. Most other MMOs suck.
The significant difference to other MMOs is the RCE. Thats what keeps me at EU and not any other MMO.

Tried out another RCE MMO that was in Alpha, but damn that needs a lot of improvement (OK, EU needs a lot improvement, too).

I would really like to see more RCE MMOs so we can really compare the games. All what isn´t RCE sucks, imho!


back to topic:
because they can afford it !

sorry but you cant just go self-defining a new sub genre and then say we are the best in the field. if you are in a field of one you are the winner and the loser.

lol, now you change and compare to google which was competing against dozens of other directly comparable competitors. make up your mind.

fact is the "not a game" thing is confusing the related media outlets so they leave it alone, so the potential audience isnt even hearing about it. wasnt there recently a best of swedish game companys article that didnt even mention mindark? says a lot really.

Thats why they call it Alpha. But the way it looks in Alpha is WAYYYY better than PE looked in Beta

Very promising.

But hey, This is about EU, not other games.

Lets say one person makes 50k usd a year and has 15k dollars a year to blow on entertainment. He can afford to depo 15k a dear.

Lets say next person makes 50k usd a year and has 500 dollars a year to blow on entertainment. He can afford to depo 500 dollars.

Lets say final person makes 15 million dollars a year. He can afford to tt mod faps.

Make sense?

If you're going to deposit no matter what amount .. this should be your first purchase in-game a "GOLD CARD" .. If your not going to deposit but you are planning to play for a very long time, this should be your first purchase a "GOLD CARD" .. Please learn from my experience under this thread ( Please Help ! ) .. GL ..

From my perspective, I'm actually not a gambler, in fact I won't even gamble for tiny stakes in a poker match. My problem is I'm addicted to games.

As for my depositing habits, I actually treat this as a savings account, a rather risky one but one that is way more fun than a normal bank

I thought I had gotten myself into a rut with this, but after I had chipped out all my skills and sold everything, I realised I wasn't much farther behind than the deposits I'd made. Which led me to my own personalise realisation of what Entropia Universe is for me.

I don't know that I'd be having this much fun with my money with an ISA or the like.
