Hello all! So recently I realized that the shop prices has increased by a bit which is pretty unfair, I was thinking about buying some more stuff until the prices got raised massively.

Please leave your opinion below. Thanks!

Does Era have any sort of change log or patch notes for when this sort of thing happens? I know they are somewhat regular in posting updates on Facebook or the server browser, but what about the little tweaks and such?

I don't think raising prices is inherently bad, but I also do not know why they would do this if their overhead isn't increasing. Does Era seem to have a lot more development going on? Do they understand their demographic doesn't necessarily have a lot of money to begin with (allowance from teenagers)?

It's pretty interesting stuff to talk about the economics of a game of this size, as it isn't too large to wrap ones head around.

What prices have they raised? They just released a hat shop where the hats are $250 a piece. Everything has been a lot cheaper lately.

Probably almost half the server has a gun worth 200000, $70-80 from ingame cash, with the other 40% having atleast a gun worth 50k miniumum if they don't already have a bar. And most people with bars have most of the other guns as well so clearly teenagers don't have any restrictions on their allowance, i dare say teenagers spend more money on games than any other age group

We're talking about out of game money.

iEra itself doesn't have much of an economy bruh.

Not really a teen, but I can agree to this, especially when there's something that involves random chance. I hate spending money on it, yet I love it at the same time.
