身為資深懶散窮人打工族。樓豬必須表示,最近e世界工資的瘋狂下跌,令本來依靠工資維生的樓豬心痛不已。從宏觀經濟學的角度來講,這是一個典型的反向 物價-工資螺旋,必須小心應對。

當然,引起工資下跌的罪魁禍首是物價下跌,不過,顯然,目前工資的跌幅要遠遠大於關鍵物資的價格跌幅。工資從火箭剛推出時的330至360跌到了100以下,跌幅超过70%;而物資方面,以樓豬每天要拿一炮一糖就必須買的Q1包及Q6武器為例,則跌幅只有33%至40%左右。而且,因為組裝火箭以及建造其他一些低級別建築物所需的CC是固定的,所以,這一輪通貨緊縮最大的受害者,其實是低等級的玩家。長此下去,玩家手中的現金越來越少,消費慾望變弱,而減弱的需求又會導致價格下跌,再次導致工資下跌,形成惡性循環。

既然如此,偉大的e中國政府是否能做一些事情呢?當然最好的是直接給樓豬這樣的青年打工族直接派錢,哈哈哈。不過,現實世界中還是有其他較為婉轉、非行政手段的方法的。例如,央行可以用減息(e世界好像沒有這招)、提高貨幣供應量(現在的版本還可以隨意印錢嗎?)乃至直接投資股、債市(e世界里就是進市場掃貨嘍,好像也不行耶)這樣的財政、金融手段來應對。不過,當然,最快的方法還是派CC給樓豬啦。

那麼,英文版之後,就是福利時間啦。

As a long-time low-level lazy-ass working-class player, I must admit, I have been hit hard by the recent deflation as my salary dropped dramatically. This is a typical downward Price/Wage Spiral in macro economics and deserves some attention.

Obviously, the culprit of falling wages is lower prices of products. But, in this round of deflation, it is easy to see that the rate wages are falling far outpaced that of prices. The daily wage at eChina has fell from a high of between 330 to 360 CC when rockets were first introduced to under 100 at present. At the same time, two of the items that I purchase on a daily basis -- Q1 food and Q6 weapons -- has only see a price drop of around 33% to 40%. Considering a fixed amount of CC is required in the construction of rockets and other low-level buildings, the biggest victims at the moment are low level players. However, if left unchecked, deflation can drain the cash from all players, causing a lower willingness to purchase products; this reduction in demand will in turn cause a further drop in price, which will cause a further drop in wages. This is a vicious cycle.

So, is there anything that can be done by our venerable eGovernment? Of course! The easiest way is to send me some money, LOL. But, of course, there are other policy actions that have real life parallels. The central bank can, for example, increase the supply of money (are central banks still allowed to freely print money in this game?) or even participate in the markets directly (again, game mechanism question here). But of course, giving me some CC would do just fine.

Anyway, time for some benefits...
