Well, to be fair, it is revenue to be used how they choose. But I do generally agree with all that you and buster are saying. This thread has been a train wreck that I just cannot turn away from.
After dust (sigh, just lower case now), I resubbed to EvE thinking I might at least get back into that. I even bought some PLEX and sold for skill injectors. I never felt like such a wh0re lol. I haven't played much at all since that point. The sub is still running but what good is background skill training if I've lost the warm-and-fuzzies? I've stopped eating the 'member berries I suppose.
I miss dust terribly. I would love to play VR, but it's still too much of a novelty at this point. I never bought the Sega Master System 3d Glasses either.  I would love to hear news on NOVA, but at this point reality tells me it will only be a shell of its potential.
Back to the topic: this argument really is going nowhere. It's like a 13-year old girl trying desperately to convince her big brother that New Kids on the Block are the greatest musical talent ever to walk the earth. A few decades late. Because emotions. Then hating him for not seeing the light.
WoD. big sigh and the stuff in the pudding.
I don't know where the line is between R&D and losing the house over a poor bet. It would be a fine line, and hard to predict; it seems more times than not CCP crosses that line pretty regularly. WoD was glaring. Then again, it's very easy for me to criticize from the sideline. So there's that too.

yeah, that's falling into a new topic I think, but I don't necessarily disagree with you. I think that's just part of business. To what degree is good or bad, I couldn't say. I have no way of knowing how much of that subscription total has been reinvested into EvE apart from R&D. I will say that the recent "update" to the skill interface was silly and unneeded. They took something that was completely functional and familiar and changed it a great deal for no other reason than because. A redesign is justifiable if the current element is just not working or creating more problems than it solves. This type of development, to me at least, seems a waste when there are bugs already in existence elsewhere.
That reminded me of how my employer will sometimes have us "change the color" of one thing or another to show progress for a client on some back-burner project while our time is put on more pressing tasks. More pressing to the employer, that is. Usually some pet project.
bleh. Experience colors perception, unfortunately. Still though. New topic? ;)

This might have been posted already, but if not here's some more speculation.
