They're doing socialist shit like nationalizing private companies etc though, and doing these socialist things, whether they've gone 100% socialist or just 90% are the things that have proven themselves detrimental to their economy. I.e. nationalizing private companies, price fixing and trying to steer the economy rather than letting it work on it's own etc

>>389795708
yeah let's try socialism one more time i'm sure it'll work

Man, there are so many other games where they could be making so much more $ per hour. Without risking getting literally killed too. Some of said games even allow real money trading, so they wouldn't even risk getting banned.

The other games aren't free. Runescape has no initial investment so is more desirable for these poor fucks.

>>389798363
You need membership to kill dragons m8. And the game already is botted to fuck, so the free to play section is abhorrent to make any RSGP in. There's also loads of safer and more productive ways than killing dragons, but they're too retarded to realise that. They also don't bother with getting good at RS3, which has loads of $$$ potential by doing PvM.

>>389798159
I'm the guy you're responding too, I live in Sweden, one of these so called "socialist" countries. We have no restrictions on businesses and are one of the freest countries in terms of ease of creating businesses etc, here there's no fear of the government appropriating what you've created. Here, and in our neighbouring Nordic countries the governments would never do what the Venezuelan or other (economically anyway) socialist governments would. They don't price fix and they don't nationalize private enterprises.

So yeah, it does come down to "is this change a (n economically) socialist one". You could argue social marxism or something else wouldn't bring the same problems, but economically, socialism is a fucking catastrophe, even all that oil money couldn't save Venezuela.

Thought you could kill greens as a freebie. Ah well, haven't played RS in years. Still though, that sub fee's gotta be eating into their total profits. Going by that video in the OP, green drags are a terrible way to stay afloat when you consider the other options. RS players are gonna have to be on the lookout for when the Venezuelans jump ship to other farming spots, it's only a matter of time.

The grind in this game is on a whole other level compared to anything else. It kills more people than poverty.

>>389798338

Wurm is technically free, but your skills are limited without premium time (20 out of 100 max). However you can buy premium with in-game currency, which isn't that hard to achieve.

>>389799268
Their economy's so fucked that they're literally making more money sitting on their asses killing dragons than actually working.

Second Life too, not sure about the initial investment though.
Also there was another old one, used to be called Entropia Universe or something similar, no sure if it's still around.

>>389799770
Work also implies forwarding an objective on top of making money and they aren't developing shit for themselves or their own country.

In Second Life I think to become a developer of products you have to pay 10 dollars (6000000*10^14 venezuelan pesos)
There were some people who became millionaire with this. A famous example is a chinese woman.

The game is doing ok actually. Just got an engine update too, looks prettier than ever.

What better MMO would /v/ recommend these poor fuckers that runs on a Venezuelan potato PC and allows them to make the money legally?

I live in a semi-thirdworld country too, never hurts to know.

>>389792562
Maybe they shouldn't be killing dragon like plebshits, then? I log on once or twice a week to flip and today I finished buying a stack of goodies I've relisted for 30m profit. Even playing actively there's more lucrative stuff to do than camp in the wilderness. Sure, you need membership for most of it but bonds aren't hard to get.

you will never get so much as a single cent of in-game money unless you are already premium and can produce 80 quality stuff or higher, or if you autisticly grind 10k piles of dirt over the course of 6 months for less than a tenth of what premium time costs.

buying premium time is literally only for people already established in the game with high skills

Among other things. Sure, with low skill, the action timers for crafting are longer, but you can still gather that 10s for premium in less than a week with not too intensive labor.
If you accidentally manage to turn one or more items into rare or supreme while crafting, that helps too.

>dare mention this fact and get told it's somehow my fault
Sure kiddo.

>>389808305
>misinformation: the post

lets break down just how ridiculously wrong you are.

first of all, you cannot forage and botanize for coin. coins dont just magically appear out of the grass.

secondly, you cannot kill creates for coin. this is partly because, as a new player limited to 20 in skills (including fighting) you cannot kill anything in the game, but mostly because coins do not drop from killed creatures

thirdly, there is no such thing as an unattended token for you to sell junk to. people with deeds will ALWAYS enclose their token and/or traders in a 1x1 hut to only allow themselves to pull coin out of it. you will never find an unattended one.

fourthly, several dozen of any building material is not enough for even one copper. even if materials sold in such tiny amounts (they dont, 10k is considered the standard batch size), you will only ever find buyers for large quantities of dirt and MAYBE bricks. once in a blue moon you may find someone wanting floorboards. either way, you will spend at least 6 months, more realistically a year, making all that shit by yourself since you have low skills and fail constantly, and the money you get in return will still not be enough for premium time

you are COMPLETELY wrong. the only way you are getting premium time is if you spend real money for it, are already highly skilled and can produce high quality stuff to sell to rich idiots, or if you are lucky enough to run into a benefactor who will give you money for premium time in exchange for labor of some kind. usually flattening an area or digging up dirt or some such peasant work

They literally do. Even silver (yes, as in 1s) coins.

They do. Also, plenty of creatures a fresh character can kill. The servers are littered with wild chickens, cows, bulls and sheep.

>no such thing as an unattended token for you to sell junk to
Starter deeds all have public tokens, idiot. Always had.

>floorboards
Just by mentioning that you made it clear that you haven't played the game in many many years. That is why you're saying all these ridiculous things. Even bricks have like 4 or 5 types now.

Everything you seem to know about the game is painfully outdated. Take a look again when you get the chance. A lot has changed.

Why do filthy politics/history students read a few books and listen to a lecture or two on Trotsky, Lenin or Marx and think this is a substantial basis for completely upending the structuring of our economy.
Fuck sake, I would place a large amount of money on 99% of Western Socialist/Communist/Anarchists not knowing how the economy even functions in more than layman's terms, never mind claiming to have a better idea of how to make it more equitable and raise the standard of living.

Socialism is perfect, so if it doesn't work it's not socialism.
