Most every game I've played I've been skint. I couldn't fly my ship from Coruscant to the next planet when the game 1st came out, I had to go back and kill more Justicars etc to farm credits so i could leave the spaceport. Eleven years later I might have 6 billion, I wasn't so bothered with amassing wealth and just mucked around having fun. Some of the player suggestions are a bit scary for me though. 1 billion for this a billion and a half for that. It seems that while 11 years ago 6 billion was loads, now it borders on skint again. Yes I would likely use Cr for somethings that are now only available with CC. But CC is oftentimes expensive when you add currency exchange and GST/VAT - 5500CC costs $39.99. For me thats $53.54 CAD + 13%GST/VAT ($6.96) = $60.50. Sure its a personal choice to buy or not, its probably more likely I'd spend my billions (all 6 of them) on something in the Cartel Market.
