Dont charge people real $ to open piggy bank

*Face palm*
This is something that should be free...
-
So you make players put in the work to even progress the bar, then lock it behind a small paywall?
-
This makes me feel alienated and even more disconnected from the game...
-
Like i understand your a buisness and need to make money.... thats apparent already....
-
But making people pay for something small like potions in both their time and money??
-
This literally made me facepalm.
In real life.
Come on... seriously?
-
Its not enough that people put in the time playing your game?
-
It makes me feel like you dont value your players..

A blaring advertisement and reminder that your only goal, is how do you sqeeze every last penny out of me?

Its only potions ffs..
I know that you guys already implemented it. So your probably not going to change it.
-
But i dont suggest doing deals like that.
Dont ask for both peoples time and money at the same time.

There are a million games to play out there. It advertises that you dont value people even playing your game... that... paying in time isnt enough....you have to charge them too?

Constructive criticism.
It doesnt matter that its a "small" fee
Its not a good look.

    It's not only potions, but I do agree that it should contain more units.

    I have spent thousands on this game.
    Its not about the money.

    Locking ingame progression rewards behind a paywall is slimy.

    Its wrong anyway you shake a stick at it.

    If you disagree, you have become blinded through habituation.

    How would you guys like to see your monthy quests locked behind a paywall?

    I refuse to let kabam think that its an acceptable practice.

    What is going on here is wrong.
    Its not about whats in the offer...
    And how much...

    Its the fact that its even happening.

    No kabam.
    No.
    Bad kabam.
    Not acceptable.
    Go to your room.

    How is it locking in-game progression?

    How is it locking in game progression? It’s not like a ‘to enter this content pay money’, it’s just items for money but with a bit more effort

    You know.. if you don't like it.. just don't buy it.. that will probably have more impact than making a thread on the forums.. also.. the fewer people who do buy it.. the less likely we are to see something like this again.

    Its an in game event, challenge, mission etc.

    That you "progress" by completing "in game" objectives.

    That you cannot unlock without "real money"

    Im not being unreasonable.
    Things like this should be apart of something like an exclusive monthly subscription if only things like that existed.
    *cough* sigil *cough*

    Im looking out for you guys.
    There is already a platform that exists for challenges/missions like this and its called a sigil.

    If you want to see more of this behavior by kabam by all means.

    Wait till it gets worse...the objects become more desireable, the in game challenge to unlick the progress bar becomes harder and then they cap it off with a heafty price tag.

    I refuse to be forced to spend $
    Collect rewards.
    For something i put in the work to complete.

    Its a bad practice and im sorry you guys dont see it.

    I feel bad for you all. That you have been conditioned through habituation to that degree.
    That you dont even see the wrong in it.

    Ive said everything that needs to be said.
    I will leave it at that.

    Please kabam keep these things in the sigil or not at all.

    That is all.
    Mahalo for your time.

    But here's the thing. Did you really put in work to fill up the piggy bank or did you just fill up the piggy bank as a result of playing the game?

    What ingame progression? It's a bonus discount on some Items.
