DUST Search - I would pay for Legion, would anyone else?

I don't know CCP's finances, but I bet if they had a way to pay a larger crew of button pushers, put the finest polish ever on Legion, came out with exactly what they, as well as us players envision, they could charge as much as any other popular title and people would eat it up just like Destiny. This free game is nice, but imagine the possibilities. Dust has more to offer than the other shooters but doesn't get the spotlight it deserves because of errors that could have been corrected long ago if they took a different approach. Were the profits from Aurum, in any way comparable to what might have been made if it were comparably priced to other games?

I remember them coming out with Destiny pre-orders like 2 yrs ago, I transferred my Destiny pre-order to The Last of Us, thats how long ago they were collecting money for development.

I'd sure as hell, would pre-order Legion and pay for it ike any other game If they can bring this to life. They have a game like no other and I want to see this game get the attention it deserves.

I have already told many people that I hope to see legion mimic the payment model of Eve. Having it subsciption based but able to pay with in game currency is an amazing model. CCP gets their money, newbies are able to effectively purchase extra isk, and veterans are able to essentially play for free. It is truly a win for everyone. It also gives vets a reason to keep grinding ISK instead of sitting around finding ways to screw over the new players. Personally I believe having anything Aurum in the game guarantees that we never get a player driven economy and we never get a deeper link to Eve. Assuming an attempt is made at a player driven economy, having what is essentially a giant NPC station that you can buy things from if prices get too high or even buy to dump on the market at a profit to screw up the current prices is just too game breaking. CCP GO WITH WHAT YOU KNOW, FORGET MICRO TRANSACTIONS SO THAT WE CAN HAVE THE GAME THAT YOU SOLD ALL OF US THE VISION OF.

Hell, I've been crowd funding Legion. But I would definitely pay for it. I'm not sure I'd pay the exorbitant EVE subscription long term, but I'd pay something. In eve you are able to pay for your subscription with ISK, many players have not paid a subscription in 8-10 years of playing the game. If you are not able to grind up the ISK you can get significant discounts for either setting up auto pay or paying a large chunk of your sub in advance.
