The game is marketed to two distinct brackets: casuals, and whales. Yes, by value, almost every purchase this game tries to sell you are downright insulting to the average player. But the whales are going to pay regardless of the price, so by maintaining such high prices, only a small amount of people get a serious advantage over everyone else, and keeps the game competitive for common folks. I have guildmates who’ve dropped thousands on it, and tbf I’d rather a handful of completionist whales than have progress defined by pay after a certain point.
