Alternative pricing scheme to boost extra character slot/stash tab sale

For free PoE accounts, 24 character slots and 4 stash tabs are provided free. Extra tab or slot cost 30 points each. I think that 24 free char slots are too many and extra slots too cheap. 24 slots are more than enough for most players, even ardent devotee of PoE, so they hardly buys extra char slots. On the contrary, I find 4 stash tabs too few and extra tab too expensive to light user. Paying $3-$4 to store just 30 virtual weapons and armors? Thinking of $15/month subscription fee for WOW or $60 price tag of Diablo 3, it is bit expensive.

I find this little bit odd for online RPG game. Many F2P RPG games limits number of character slots severely (like 5 slots per account) but provides quite large shared or per character stash space (likes of > 1000 items total) Character is hard to build and takes long time. So char slot is more precious/high value resource. Stash tab fills fast. Each character needs multiple stash tabs to support it. So it is low value resource and should not cost so expensively to sell more.

Too many free char slots and too expensive shash tab price results in same old "storage character syndrome" as it did in Diablo2. It can be avoided. Char slots should be scarce and expensive resource. Ideally, revenues from char slots sale and revenues from stash tab sales should be similar amount in money value. AFAIK, GGG doesn't sell char slots much. Mostly stash sales.

Fully filled up stash space become play time limiting factor to some light users, which is not good for business of GGG. Make them play PoE more and longer, then money will roll in automatically.

So my suggestion: Reduce free char slots to minimum and make extra char slot expensive. Reduce price of stash tab and provide more free tabs. This will abolish storage character and it will boot sales of expensive character slots to heavy users and sell inexpensive stash tabs more to light users.

An example : A free account will have 6 free character slots, one per class. It will have 6 normal stash tabs free.
Extra character slot should be expensive: 100 points per character slot. It comes with one additional premium stash tab.
Extra stash tab should be inexpensive : 15 points per normal tab, 20 points for premium tab. (Half of current price) Premium stash tab may be assigned to specific charter as exclusive tab.

Before PoE will go real public service later this year, there will be an inevitable restart/wipe of characters/stashes, I guess. Then, apply this new pricing scheme for real service.

How about that?

Having only six character slots would stifle diversity. Many players want to have a try at different leagues so they need slots for Standard, Hardcore, Onslaught, Anarchy characters. That's not to mention all the casual characters created by short-term event leagues. These need to be processed and deleted (or kept I guess) and you need spare slots to handle all that.

Twenty four slots seems a fair amount to me but I think the cost of new slots is too high. I think it should be packs of six slots at a time, maybe for 50 points?

Character stashes are limited but they are on the large side and I think 4 stash tabs is fine. Remember you get different stashes per league. I think the price for more stash tabs is a little high but I didn't mind paying this. As I saw it this was sort of an "honesty payment" to support the developers that I, personally, was more than happy to make.

There will be no further character wipes; this is it!
