In point of fact I don't even mind rng. I've played many many games using rng structures to award prizes. But I do see a problem with stacking rng upon rng. If used too frequently it can create a chasm of rewards and kill a game.
Now, one time isn't a huge deal. 2 times maybe not so much, but at what point does this type of reward structure create too much harm. I don't pretend to have the answer to this but it is a legitimate concern for players to raise.
OP raises a valid criticism. That's it. No hate. I myself benefited from this structure, duped my 5* Domino and pulled a 5* Winter Soldier for the first time. Kinda irrelevant to the conversation though.
The F2P game industry, flying directly in the face of loud vocal opposition to random lootboxes, is the dominant player in the industry, both in terms of revenue generated, and also more importantly in the number of players who support those games compared to others. This says something much more specific about what "too frequently" is.
We can debate preference. But there's no debating efficacy.
On a meta level: You say you don't "hate" random rewards, but this betrays the fact that you clearly believe they are inherently bad. Because if you were neutral on them, you wouldn't suggest that they are okay in tiny amounts, but that some apparently low point they obviously become problematic. A neutral person wouldn't mind if they were 20%, or even 50% of all rewards. They wouldn't say "one or two times isn't a huge deal" because a neutral person would believe they had an equal place among all kinds of reward systems, and the only other kind of reward system are the non-random kind.
I get it, you don't agree. Cool, wasn't trying to change your mind nor anyone else's. Y'all's opinion is also valid. I just think that there is a danger and a valid concern was raised by a fellow player. As I mentioned above, at some point, whether it is once , twice or eleventy-billion people reach a breaking point for what they will take. That is different for different people. Recognizing the potential for harmful effects doesn't mean I secretly hate something, it simply means I can see POTENTIAL for harm. Emphasized for y'all.
None of that is the point of me posting. The people who matter, maybe they see and rethink...maybe they don't. It's all good, I've done my part, I had a concern and voiced it. I'm good.
Your comparison does not hold value.
Wether you get Iron Patriot or Aegon you’re getting the same reward and the same amount: 1 5* champ.
In previous season crystals you did get the same rewards (mostly) but you didn’t get same amount. So not really comparable.
I agree with the OP that RNG rewards should not exist in content.
I hated completing 6.2 and 6.3 using thousands of units and time to get a 3* from cavaliers.
Those crystals shouldn’t exist in content like that.
Now, for this specific side quest I don’t think it’s that bad. It’s not like it’s too difficult and it doesn’t take much e. In this case, I’d prefer not having that crystal but it’s nothing terrible.
No one wants RNG rewards but how many games are you going to find like this that don't? But we are all putting forth the same effort for the same rewards. If I complete 6.2 we both get the same thing reward wise. Crystal pulls will never reflect effort put forth.
But if your point is there aren’t many games without RNG then we’re in agreement. This is an RNG game (like most out there).
What I just wanted to clarify is the RNG in a 5* crystal isn’t the same as a cavalier crystal.
And even though you’re right (6.2 has the same rewards for everybody) completing content that difficult shouldn’t even have a chance at a 3*.
So while I believe in this month’s side quest the crystal is ok, in other parts it isn’t. For example in AW I thought it wasn’t.
Nothing wrong with being one. Was just curious to know what you were.thanks for confirming. I’ll be more sensitive to you next time sweetheart.
Ah. Sorry mr husband
I'm seriously offended at the behavior of you @Scholia
