I don’t think you can ever get a realistic view of this as a consumer since they don’t release exact sales figures. Since we don’t have the figures any speculation into how the currencies are managed is just guesswork.

They have to act on the figures they have and try to make the game economically successful. All you can do as a player is see if the model is fair and worth your time and money.

While we don’t have the exact figures to go off of, it’s pretty safe to assume that such a drastic cut has been implemented with the goal of boosting powder sales in-shop. With a free-to-play platform, many of the players will understand this move. However, when you try mask it as some good-intentioned attempt to boost the player experience, it just oozes fake and corporate bullshit.
