big payed staff: a reason why most other online games go bankrupt; EA and Sony made loss last year with their online games; we are a small company and even have problems with paying ourself
Well that answers everything but gameplay, guess it really is a chat room.

why are we paying more for something that is less? The updates are minimal, no new quests no new jobs, there is less and less to do! So i say lets boycott graal!
no one pay means price goes down or graal gets shut down, either one is fine.
Evan:
Dude, shut up. Graal is fun and I love it. The price is fine and i'll pay it anyday. No, I am not some rich kid infact i have to earn everythign I pay, but it's worth it. IF we don't pay more graal can be shutdown. It's not alot after you look at it. So, upgrade your account for 1 year then save about 3 dollers every month and at the end pay for a new one. Is that simple enough for you?

If you want to compare the prices of graal to any other game compare it to another game which supports hundreds of players playing the same game together at the same time.


If you compare it to that. Graal is a very cheap game.
You took the words from my mouth... err... I mean, from my fingers..

It's because Stefan doesn't know how to manage money. He runs bandwidth for all of these extra playerworlds that really no one plays (which costs a lot of money), and then he makes 2k2, which totally bombs, yet instead of getting rid of that, he keeps the bandwidth running for that (costs lots of money), and then he has 2k1, Classic, N-Pulse, and Unholy Nations which usually have around 50 people on, and those are really the only servers he should keep, but instead he insists on keeping these other playerworlds up, that no one plays, and just puts a big hole in his pocket...

Servers that get barely any players aren't taking up bandwidth. Bandwidth is only being taken up when data is transferred. Thus, no players, equals no wasting of bandwidth. Plus most server rentals come with a flat fee of unlimited bandwidth per month.

Stefan could probably put up 100 playerworlds, but if no one is on them, they aren't costing him anything. P2P money is spent maintaining a couple servers that host 2k1, 2k2, and the playerworlds. You should really know what you're talking about before you make some big post about something.

I just thought of that..GFX team is global yet they don't do anything for playerworlds (or for 2k1,classic, and 2k2 either) I don't see them make GFX at all :/
