Or you can try their new strategy of spending 98% of developer's time designing new "Station Market" items for the weekly updates in which you can use real life cash to purchase advancements and novelty items in-game. Leveling too slow? Buy exp potions for $10! Just bought someone's character of eBay and need to look like you're not playing a stranger's character? Change your race/sex/name for $40! The amount of pure trash items you can buy for cash is astonishing.


sounds like Evony... hey P5ot!
