Best Of

I think you guys take this game too seriously, to the point of arguing and venting your frustrations on someone who doesn't necessarily is the one making the decisions, he's just here to explain why certain decisions are made so we can understand the rationale behind the decisions

This is just a game, in fact I play multiple games at endgame level

These are but digital resources, I have hoarded so much digital resources in another game that totally became useless the moment I reached endgame status

Am I upset that I can't use these digital resources bcos they have turned totally useless? Not at all bcos I know it's just a game. I don't make myself upset over digital resources or a game

But I do understand the feelings players have towards a game they invested time and money in

You can let your opinions be known to the game team but it's kinda pointless to be upset about it

I appreciate Mike’s comments here but I don’t think it really changes my feelings on this matter. There has to be a middle ground between “wipe the metaphorical slate clean” and “whales with literal millions of relic shards saved get all 180 relics as soon as they launch without spending an extra dime”. The deep dive stated that there are no plans for new battlecast relics at this point, am I expected to hold on to these shards for another 2 years until you all finally have the time to make new ones and these finally have reasonable value again? If the problem is “too many people have mass relic shards that would trivialize collection”, then letting people sit and collect more shards only exacerbates the problem when you eventually do get around to it, which kinda erodes my trust that it ever will be “worth it” for Kabam to make battlecasts. I don’t see how my aforementioned limited conversion idea is impossible; give the folks who have been saving relic resources for the day y’all finally released new relics a bit of a deserved head start without letting them max out their collections instantly.

And as a bit of an endnote, with no promises of battlecasts coming in the future, this makes battlecast relics shards a bit of a “dead end” resource; eventually you can collect them all and you can reach a point where they have literally no value (technically duping relics gives you a bit of gold and embers but let’s not pretend those really mean much of anything). I don’t think this is something that can be allowed to stand. Champion crystal shards always have value because there’s always new champs to collect, and their associated rank up and level up resources too by the same token. Mysterium, gold, radiance, loyalty, battlechips, they all continually offer some value in getting these always valuable resources. Battlecast shards are now the opposite, where I can reach a point where there is almost literally no more value in collecting them besides speculative hope - and yet Kabam will inevitably continue to offer them as rewards in content like the event and side quest. I strongly urge Kabam to consider this point heavily when considering the future of battlecasts, and realize that trying to kick the can down the road like y’all are doing now will only lead to a more explosive result when things come to a head.

Yeah you pretty much expressed everything I meant to say in a way more respectful manner.
I guess I was a bit harsh on my side due to being questioned about being objectively.
Anyway I apologized if I sounded as if I was attacking Mike on a personal level.
Just take what Squidopous is saying.
