Why is premium so expensive?

Why is premium subscription so expensive? 

For 4 months its 130€, are they okay in the head?

What wrong with tanki devs? what makes it worse is that there was a time in tanki where premium subscription (for a given amount of time)  could be earned as a reward from missions and they removed it now???? like why??? whats the point???? they are losing fans/customers/players this way in the long run?

 

Have they just given up on saving tanki at this point. Its like they have and they have accepted that this game is dying and these are their last ditch effort to get as much money as possible from the players before the players finally desert this game.

 

130€ for 4 months? xbox subscription is 20€ for 3 months,  play station sub is 24€ for 3 months, nintendo has a sub for 8€ for 3 moths. plus 5-9€ on each for an added 4 month to make it fair. NONE of them is 130€ for 4 months??????????????

 

Atleast add subscription to the containers???

Shop prices in general seemed overexpensive for a few years now. But to answer your question for premium specifically, they reduced the number of ways f2ps have to obtain it, and they have added more benefits to it than previously. 

 

Premium gives you the luxury of not worrying about challenge progress, even if you missed a lot of days. The new system allows you to gain meaningful amounts of stars for challenges in battle rather than it being locked behind 2 weeks of continuous completion of daily and weekly missions. 

Most of your crystals to spend come from containers. With Premium, you can increase how many you get from battles and if you're grinding during double battle funds, it comes up quite nicely over time compared to a normal player.

You get a reward for having premium account every day in the missions (1 Common Key). You gain access to extra missions that give extra Epic Keys per event and an extra set of weekly missions if you play enough.

I think the most impactful would be participating in Challenge Accepted as you need premium to place highly, less you spend too many hours a day for 2 weeks continuously playing battles. 

 

I would assume it's expensive mostly for points 3 and 4.

Absolutely insulting to the customers. They must realise the way this looks and how it affects the game, so perhaps they are indeed planning to scrap the game soon and this is a last ditch effort to get as much money as possible from the whales.

Hazel claimed in an interview with Taspens that they do not need desperate cash grabs right now, even though some players think so. He stated that they are not planning to get rid of the game, and that the dev team is optimistic about improving it.

I hope that's true. I want to see the game improve.
