It says that it's pretty much like online gambling. If you invest in it, and the developer goes bankrupt, then you have very little protection from the EULA and other stuff.


The game itself is some sort of inter-galactic economy simulator, amirite?
...

It'd be wise to wait for OUR economy to shape up, but even then this thing looks very risky.

All in all: It's no scam, but it's not a wise decision. Invest in something better, like Enron Fanny Mae WaMu EA Blockland :D

Unless you are very smart with money, this game will run you dry. It took me a month to take my nothing and turn it into 100 PED, ($10 US). So even when you make money, at first, it is very slow. I don't recommend this game to anyone without a patience.

No it's not a scam, but it's a really stuffty game.

[Teal]

Nah, it's not.

It's like Second Life where you can exchange ingame money for real life money.

who's the guy who paid like 100k real life money for a space hotel or some crap like that.


And he said he's made like 2 million back already from it?
