Thoughts on Era

Nowadays, Era has changed by such a considerable amount...I miss some of the finer details of my days as a trial (horrible times. ) I took the time to look around era and I noticed that some fun aspects of era were "nuked".

First off, Player Owned Businesses. Those were fun because it was a great way to make money quickly. Now, the only people who own businesses are either the rich kids or someone who just HAPPENS to know a staff member. I remember a time when you worked to get a biz and it all paid off in the end. Now, its just an overpriced disaster.

Second, I like what's been done with the northern part of Era, the buildings look superb.

Third, why should the cars be 10k or more? When I started era, the cars were 7k and it was very fun to earn the money for the car. Now, its just a pain in the ass.

Finally, these guns, like the Lexel Rifle for example, have plain stupid prices. I mean, 50k for a gun? Same goes for gang weapons too. I'm doomed to live with my AK-47 and $18 ammo for all my time on Era?

Things like these make me want to quit era again.

They're trying to replicate old Chrisz Era and are failing miserably.

Those small business were a gigantic economy killer and needed to be removed.

The price was increased to get rid of more money.

Once again, the prices are all about removing money from the economy, because businesses have to pay such high taxes that they need to charge that much to make anything.

Why are you so concerned about the economy? Why not just leave it the way it was? >:/ It was 3 times more fun and it didn't pose a problem to me, I don't know about the rest of you...

Part of the magic of Era is the social hierarchy.

I try to play it, but the PKing kills any chance for me to try to work, and it seems only those with some sort of connection really get anything.
