Do you feel that this is the optimal end-game? Would you perhaps be willing to make changes on the design from a perception of power to legitimate power so that players feel a more substantial effect of progression toward that end-game?

As someone who has no interest in politics, I can understand the players that do want to go down the rabbit hole. These changes don't affect me as a mercenary as much because I'm probably not going to be gaining much [DK] from it. The perception that I'm aiding my corporation through daily missions is cool and all but my corporation isn't really after districts, so there isn't much we benefit from this.

Now, as an entity that would be after districts, I can kind of see the unique flare but I worry that it will become unpopular due to the same frustrations we deal with in FW: A separate currency with which is ultimately unattainable unless we are in FW and with which does not benefit us in any other market. ISK is a powerful motivator because, while a lot of players do have massive wealths of it, it is a general application currency that can be used virtually everywhere and can be made virtually everywhere.

DK, LP, and Aurum are sort of like 'store credit'. Useful in application but only in that confined spectrum. I -HAVE- to participate in PC to get DK, and I can only use DK in a confined market. Thereby, it is more novel than functional, and my time and efforts are probably better spent attaining ISK.
