I said it when Executor was first announced...
If you force such a high price on a ship where nothing has ever cost anything remotely similar before, then you end up with 2 possible outcomes
1) The ship is a GL of ships in a context where there is no other GL and easily destroys everything thrown against it, on offense and defense, which is terrible for gameplay and for fun.
or
2) The ship is a good ship, no better (or only incrementally better) than other good ships, and is clearly not worth the investment.
When you force your customers to race their Tesla sedans against an Aston Martin Vanquish, no one is happy and your business does not prosper.
When you put an Aston Martin price tag on a Tesla sedan, no one is happy and your business does not prosper.
This was never going to end well, and the only reasonable thing to do was implement jk Luke type pricing to get folks used to the idea of relic pricing for ships while you slowly ramp up the power levels.
This was an entirely foreseeable failure, CG. I do hope you have learned your lesson this time.
