I have been playing Secoundlife for a Long Time and seen many things, along different Alts, From Flexi to sculpts to Mesh, Secondlife is Evolving so Amazingly, But one thing that hasn't seemed to change is a Sim, and there prim count. Mesh has helped out so much in saving on prim counts but isn't it about time second life, upgrade a little, I know I can't be The first The bring this topic up, which amazes me as why nothing has changed over so long it is $1000 usd to purchase a full 15,000 prim sim. with monthly installments of $300 usd, That's $15,600 a year... That is a ton of money, for such a small amount on Secondlife personally I was extremely egar to buy a sim, after playing so many RPG games, I wanted to create my own city on a sim, but The big shock for me was I would need to purchase 9 Sims to create it, The way I envision it, this is my own personal limit. while playing other games I realised it can take like 5 minutes to cross a area of a map, where secondlife it could take seconds to cross a sim, this was personally a huge let down. I wound not mind paying The 15k a year if I knew I was getting something worth it, but to be honest I can't see a good reason to bother considering it, it really is a lot of money for such limitations and considering how far sl has come, I still can't see why no upgrade has followed. They way SL is Right now, in amazing creations take such large amount of space in a sim leaving barely nothing for anything else which is a massive same. I love exploring main lands and seeing just how huge they are (Even encountering sim crossings still was huge) they obviously have The technology for huge mainland's, Why not make Sims like 20 times larger, Could you imaging a forest on a sim The size of 20 Sims put together no crossings, actually having a purpose have ground teleporters as it takes ages to walk from one side of The sim to The other and having a prim amount of like 200k The possibilities of creations would be breath taking. The sad fact is, this may never be reality, I can't seem to figure out why they have not done this, there are literately thousands of Sims people have purchased so they obviously, earning a good income 2,000 Sims alone brings in $31,200,000 a Year not to mention The $Lindens people purchase, they must be able to afford The technology to upgrade Sims by now So many previous sim owners I have met have told me not to bother, because "It is too much for too little" this post is mainly my own personal opinion on try to figure out if it is worth buying a sim, spending $15,600 (not including Lindens) a year on something so limited I would personally love to hear others opinions, maybe if enough speak a change might happen, Do you think they should upgrade Sims from what they are now?
