    Here is a good example of how Entropia is funny and rewarding:

    "How would you like to wake up and find that you made $12,000 overnight? Seems like a dream, doesn't it? How would you like to have that $12,000 come from a single drop you found one day while farming in your favorite MMO? Now it seems even more like a dream."

     

    Which other MMO can the above happen? None. Correct!

    ..and that makes "the game" somehow not like a casino then?

     

     

    You can also call the thing we all share, Life, as a casino as well if you take that perspective. Everything in life is a gamble. So your comment is in my pov useless.

• • Entropia Universe: What is it about Entropia Universe?

  • One thing is blatantly obvious when reading this thread. Entropia creates emotion. That is good.

    Another thing this thread proves is that people that don't get gets angry and people that get it gets rich.

• • Entropia Universe: What is it about Entropia Universe?

  • Most people who complain about Entropia seem to have done no research what so ever.

    Of course an online game will not make you rich if you don't understand it.

    This quote is taken from the company behind Entropia, Mindark's, homepage: "The normal service fee for an active user lies between 0.5 and 1.5 USD per hour."

    If you play PvE the system is designed to COST you on average $1 per hour. They are OPEN about it. If you haven't taken the time to find it out, your loss. But pleeeeease don't come crying afterwards.

    The beautiful thing about Entropia is that it is a MARKET where people with litte time but with lots of money can compete on equal terms with those with much time and no money. The people who has become rich in Entropia ENGAGE on this market and trade and deal with OTHER PLAYERS. If you ONLY play PvE against the "system" you will lose a buck an hour. That is why you almost never should sell thing back to Mindark, instead you should try to sell stuff at a markup. Like a free economy.

    People screaming about scams are just ignorant to the facts presented. Players get their real life money when they withdraw from Entropia. There are many, many examples of this.

    If Entropia was a complete scam like some of you suggest, WHY THE HELL do this still exist as a popular online game after release over five years ago? They make money and have pleased customers.

    If you want to have more in-depth figures and financials it is all publicly available on the Mindark webpage: www.mindark.com
