I've watched plenty of MMO's die. This isn't even close yet. Maybe the English community, but not the game. They obviously though it was worth a version in hong kong. Which again is NOT Japan(Where it will obviously flourish the most)
i find the english community in this game rises and falls constantly. As some english players leave, a good amount seem to come in. Lots of the english players like myself get kinda bored of this type of grinding in game eventually. I did the Aion grind from 1-50 (did 1-30 in the korean beta before us release). Needless to say, if you played that game you know it was very grindy with very little quests to do like any korean game.
That being said, DBO is fun, but it can get old around level 41-50. I am happy to do repeat quests, and even just grinding is alright. Obviously it would only be smart to do the faster of the two which would be repeats. the only thing about it is I noticed the travel distance for the few rpeats in the 40's seems to be ridiculous. I am happy it is very easy to kill 46 (i think is the number of walrus' you need for the one, maybe its 65) of one mob. But making you go all the way back to the bottom of the map to turn it in for xp and travel all the way back up to do it again. That is just plain bad game design in that department. It is to time consuming to do that. I don't mind some traveling to turn in a quest, but from bottom of the map tot he top that is just bad.
ANY WAY to keep my post on topic lol, You could probably make 80mil, maybe 85 mil outta that amount of cash shop points i would guess. Hoi Poi stones sell well ussually (not sure how the market is at the moment seeing how I have no looked at the AH in about a week or 2) But you gotta sell at the right time. Same goes for any other cash shop item. pets can take a while to sell sometimes. But they can be worth a pretty penny as well. So if i had to suggest anything, it would be those 2 items to try to sell.
