What the thread starter said should really be two threads. About monster drop scales and the economy.
Monster drop scales are fine, thats not a problem, it all comes in little steps.
The economy is something completely different and cannot be understood as 1 statement. Look at the government, they can control aspects of the economy but they cannot control it entirely. They are like nexon, they can control aspects, but not it entirely.
Whenever Nexon implemented the MTS they changed the economy from a meso based, to nx and meso based. As more and more people are throwing real dollars into this game, they are inflating the economy, creating mesos out of thin air and lowering the value of every meso already in game.
Nexon is basing their success on revenue and profits. Yes, they are a for-profit business, they care about the well being of game enough to make them money. They are allowed to do it, and as long as people are having to spend more and more real dollars in game to keep up with in game practices, they arnt going to change a thing.
So for now, this inflation is good for nexon, not us. But as soon as things get better us meso wise, something new will come and bring the inflation back.
