Re: I think the week 4 SQ Objective is missing something
Go ahead and awaken your irrelevant six stars and tell yourself it’s a good reward. There’s a lot of space between meaningless / useful / top tier. Nobody said anything about top tier; just give me something that’s worth more than one seven star sig stone.
Re: Overrated or underrated, Mr Fantastic
There are worse hobbies, guys 🤷♂️
Edison, have you ever wondered if you're asking the wrong question?
You're asking people to 'rate' Mr Fantastic twice: (1) how do they think other people rate him, and (2) how do they personally rate him?
Then they compare the two to decide if he's overrated or underrated.
However, a few years on the forums is more than enough to learn that actually, we're pretty bad at judging other people's opinions.
So two people might both think Mr Fantastic is pretty good. Person A thinks other people hate Mr Fantastic. Person B thinks other people think he's pretty good.
So, Person A says he's Underrated.
Person B says he's Perfectly rated.
So what have we actually learned about Mr Fantastic?
I'd say: nothing. We didn't actually learn either person's opinion about Mr Fantastic, which is that both person A and B think the same thing: that he's pretty good.
So, why not just ask if Mr Fantastic is good?
Or add a scale like Poor-Mid-Useful-Strong-Amazing?

Re: Getting sick of new champions just being Defender or Counter to Defender
This is the second time Kabam releases a champ that gets completely overshadowed by another
Leader NEFARIA
Torres. SPIDER WOMAN
Thankfully everybody respects Jack but it’s almost like he was used to promote bastion
This is becoming a serious problem that will never stop unless champs are designed to differ from others
And as leader didn’t get an upgrade I’m not sure Torres will, which is a shame because I think that he’s so cool

Re: How much monetization is too much?
GW has gotta be the ceo in disguise. With comments like that.The game has been monetized all along, in one way or another. The fact that people are offended or surprised by this seems a bit odd to me. There will always be things you can't have without paying. As a consumer, my job is to decide a) if I can afford it, and b) if it appeals to me. If I don’t buy something, I'm not entitled to it for free.GW as per usual not getting the point. This isn't about spending in general it's about the fact that the more sales we have, the more expensive they get.

How much monetization is too much?
Listen, I get it. The game has to make money to survive. But I worry we are reaching (or have passed) a tipping point of sustainability.
After 3 mega sales/unit draining events I couldn’t be less excited for the reunion event and Statcasts as it just seems like trying the drain whale milk from dried whale bones at this point.
Nothing about this current approach encourages casual spending, it’s all in or you don’t matter… which is fatiguing for the whole community. FTP feels the ever growing gap, casual spenders say “what’s the point” more than ever, and dolphin spenders are saying “no mas”. I gotta imagine even the largest spenders must feel some level of… wtf… another cash focused event incoming.
But maybe this is all just my personal take… and I’m on an island here. That’s ok… but if not I gotta ask… is this current direction a step too far?
