This is AMAZING! Its a credit to a lot of insanely talented people who have worked on and supported the game over the last ~8 years, but as a lot of you know our team size is pretty small - we don't have some enormous creative media team, or CG animations team, or million dollar budgets for live-action or anything like that. Near 100% of our video content is real gameplay generated by real players on live environments (many of you have even joined us to help record trailer footage, for which we're eternally grateful!). So thank you ALL for helping us get here!

Its a financial technicality that selling a virtual currency creates a liability the bean counters want us to believe is important, in reality RPG will bank what they get from coin sales immediately and can use it whenever they want leaving the liability as a paper credit that they can devalue on a whim as there is no way to cash it out and the exchange rate is entirely controlled by them.

So tldr, yes its good that you spend it, but if you want to support RPG dont worry about the accounting, just buy the coins and spend them whenever you want.

^This. I'd add that you also support our team just by playing the game - our player count (user base) is just as important a metric to the health and success of the game as revenue.

tl;dr as long as players are playing and having fun, PS2 will be alive and well :)
