This much outrage on simply a gamemode that you can easily ignore is crazy, It also gives good rewards for minimal effort so won't advice to ignore.
you completely missed the point or chose to ignore it. it’s not just ‘something you can easily ignore’ — they purposely stuffed it with great rewards so we can’t ignore it. that’s the issue. it’s low-effort, off-brand content shoved into the game with insane rewards to force engagement, not because it’s fun or good.
acting like that’s fine is how we keep getting more of this lazy design.
“We can’t ignore it”?. I have since last Wednesday when it was released,..did one run of it for 15-20 minutes and I haven’t been back since,.,and I won’t for the remaining tine it’s available. I don’t think the rewards make it worth playing the mode,.,(it’s that bad),.,so i don’t. …see?,.., it’s easy.
okay, you proudly missed the point, downplayed the problem, and acted like disengaging makes you wise, when in reality, it just makes you irrelevant to the discussion. here’s why:
i’m pointing out that kabam jammed valuable, top-tier rewards into garbage content specifically to force players — especially competitive ones — into engaging with it, whether they like it or not. It’s not about skipping it, it’s about how this tactic degrades the game design and sets a horrible precedent.
kabam’s entire goal with this kind of content is to test how little effort they can put in and still get engagement by attaching bait-tier rewards. players like you ignoring it does nothing if thousands more cave and buy arcade tickets.
You’re right,..i am proud of not participating in what i do not like and enjoy, and i do find it wise in disengaging in this game mode for that reason. (Why would i lessen myself by participating in this if that’s my feeling towards it)? Meanwhile, if you’re the “competitive type”..you should accept that if you are going to 100% every piece of content then some of it you may find wont always appeal to you. Instead you are crying about having to participate in something that you choose to do because of a bar you have set yourself,..pretty sad. And nobody is irrelevant in this game no matter if you’re competitive, semi competitive or simply casual as i’m pretty sure this certain game mode is available to all kinds of summoners. It is also their choice to disregard it or not,..but it’s kind of pathetic when people complain while grinding a mode that they themselves choose to take part in 😅.
man, your responses are full of nothing but deflection and condescension, you just never fail to completely miss the actual point!
you don’t get to dismiss legit criticism from players who did/are engaging with it just because they care enough to clear content and challenges to get good rewards. nobody’s crying, we’re pointing out lazy design and a clear monetization shift. and calling it “sad” to expect better from the game is just weak. you're not above the conversation just because you tapped out early. you're outside of it. huge difference.
you’re proudly sitting out a mode you say you dislike, acting like that’s some deep, enlightened take when all you’ve really done is remove yourself from the conversation entirely!
It’s not that deep,..it’s just logical and common sense,..you obviously have none. If you don’t like it..:don’t play it. If you choose to play it (sure you can have constructive criticism,..but you have to remember that it is ultimately your choice to participate). You’ve just gone off on a endless rant about it and i was very happy to give my initial feedback on it and then leave it be. I’m on an island in the sun and you’re miserable playing this s***,..seems pretty dumb to me. Now if you excuse me i’m going back to my island. Have fun playing game modes you don’t enjoy 😜

you are basically a walking cliché of smug ignorance.
“it’s not that deep” like that magically erases how shallow your whole argument is. “don’t like it, don’t play it” isn’t insight, it’s the kind of lazy dodge people use when they can’t actually address the criticism. i did play it, which means unlike you, i can actually speak to what’s wrong with it. all you’ve done is pop in with your copy and paste “common sense” takes, then brag about being on an island like that makes your opinion any less worthless.
you’re not offering feedback, you’re just pretending disengagement equals wisdom. it doesn’t. it just means you’ve got nothing to add but uselessness. go enjoy your island, man. nobody asked for postcards from ignorance.

Just move on imo, pretty sure that those with good will have already understood your point. Guy with 30+ posts -just today- told you to touch grass, why even bother arguing further. He's just projecting as per usual and is mad for no apparent reason but thinks sliding in a lol or lmao would hide his emotions It should be clear after a while that you shouldn't waste time arguing with certain users including me, I suck

Yeah sure buddy, you're on an island and you decided to go on a mobile game forum to argue with people instead of doing something else. This is not the flex you think it is buddy.
This thread seems to be getting unnecessarily nasty and personal
It's literally any thread with the zola guy, just waste of time arguing. I agree with OP for the most part, they have a point and those baffled by simple, valid criticism are just making it worse without realising. Kabam utilizes fomo really well and we can't deny it, they get you to spend no matter how little. I don't think its healthy for the game quality and balance in the long term but you can see that same people who'll complain the other day support it today so fair play I guess?
I'm ready for the "Didn't you quit, why still here?" comments, bring it...
Except you can actually get the content done without spending, there is no fomo involved because you're not missing out on anything unless you choose to do so. You have enough tickets to get absolutely everything for free, it just takes longer. If you hadn't quit the game you would know this already.
time-gated content isn’t new, but having the option to pay to skip the wait is.
kabam has always time-gated stuff through energy, daily limits, or event pacing — but they’ve never combined that with a cash option to skip forward just because the content is deliberately slow, annoying and boring.
this is a first. and it’s not just about the mode — it’s about the precedent.
they’re testing: - how much friction they can add - how many people will pay to remove it - and how easy it is to disguise a soft paywall as “player convenience”
it’s not the skip button that’s the problem — it’s why it exists in the first place.
think about that
Paying to skip the wait isn't new at all. That's the only thing paying ever does in this game. It accelerates time, aside from the select few things you can't get for free. I hate to break it to you, but monetization has been accelerating the growth of Accounts in this game since the beginning, and it isn't about to stop.
yeah, we all know monetization speeds things up — that’s not some groundbreaking insight. what you’re missing is how kabam is testing it here. this isn’t about buying catalysts or shards — it’s about them sliding in boring low quality content with a time gate so you’re tempted to pay just to skip it. that’s a shift in design philosophy, and pretending it’s business as usual is either willfully blind or just lazy thinking.
They're testing what? You can wait and get everything, or you can pay and get it right away. That isn't a shift in design. It's been around all along. Have you heard of the Platinum Track? Potions? Energy Refills? Hell, everywhere you look in the game, there are ways to expedite the process. Honestly, you're up in arms because there's a Side Quest experiment that people can pay a few bucks and complete in a short matter of time. I can't speak for you, but waiting for Entries is one of my least favorite models. I can't see how this is a bad thing, but it's certainly not new.
you keep saying “this has always been in the game,” but you're ignoring the actual shift. this isn’t like buying potions or energy refills to speed up gameplay you ENJOY. this is kabam designing a low effort, boring mode just so they can see if they can sell you relief from it.
that’s the difference. it’s not just monetizing time within the actual game here — it’s monetizing frustration. and yeah, that’s a new level of predatory. the paid skip isn’t just convenience, it’s bait. and pretending that’s no different than previous systems is either dishonest or just not paying attention.
You could literally argue that any monetization in the game is monetizing frustration. Let me say it again so you can be clear. This. Is. Not. New. I don't know why you have such a chip on your shoulder about this Quest, but you're much more bothered by this than is necessary. People who don't care for paying are just using the free Entries. Which you're free to do. You're also free to skip the entire thing. People are not being forced to do it. If someone lacks self-control, the game is not responsible. They're doing what they've always done. Offering a game you can play for free, AND you can spend on if you choose. That's it.
The amount of effort you spent raging about this could've easily been spent getting 825 units and 20k titan shards.
you really thought you did something with that huh? it’s a time-gated, paywalled mode — nobody’s ‘wasting time’ by pointing out how trash it is while we wait for the next drip of content. maybe read how the event works before pretending you’re the productivity police.
I was happy with the rewards I got for $7 and minimal effort. If you don't like it, that's cool, who cares? I don't like pumpkin pie. But when I go to the pie shop, I don't start yelling at the store for offering it. I just pick a different pie and move on with my life.
Yap yap yap. Go back to complaining about not being able to reparry
Bro, my F2P alt is in mysterium right now while you claim BGs is rigged and that casino poker requires skill and strategy. Stop trying to engage with me you pathetic loser, lol...
I don't think he even plays BGs at all, he's scared of bigger accounts so he just avoids BGs at all costs.
Which is fine, no one has to play modes they don't want. But it looks like he read my thread about how I can't reparry on PC the way I can on mobile and was like: "Finally, something to attack Totem with!" I really think he might be the biggest loser on the forum, which is saying A LOT...

Who’s “smug and ignorant “. You’re ignorant enough to say Kabam is being “lazy”, when they are simply experimenting with a different type of game mode that apparently you dislike but wish to play. Maybe try growing a pair or a brain for that matter,,,geesh..get a life buddy.
If Kabam wants to give the kind of rewards the Dimensional Arcade has basically as a promotional tie-in that involves minimal effort, they can do it as often as they want to and I won't complain. I've never played an auto-fighter before, but it's essentially a turn-based RPG that you don't have to control beyond the setup. I like the simple strategy of picking masteries to get the team through the levels more efficiently. I enjoy challenging MCOC content as well, but I think this promotional stuff is meant to be way more accessible by design. It's a break from the usual, and I don't mind taking it.

It’s not about skipping it, it’s about how this tactic degrades the game design and sets a horrible precedent.
kabam’s entire goal with this kind of content is to test how little effort they can put in and still get engagement by attaching bait-tier rewards. players like you ignoring it does nothing if thousands more cave and buy arcade tickets.
You’re right,..i am proud of not participating in what i do not like and enjoy, and i do find it wise in disengaging in this game mode for that reason. (Why would i lessen myself by participating in this if that’s my feeling towards it)? Meanwhile, if you’re the “competitive type”..you should accept that if you are going to 100% every piece of content then some of it you may find wont always appeal to you. Instead you are crying about having to participate in something that you choose to do because of a bar you have set yourself,..pretty sad. And nobody is irrelevant in this game no matter if you’re competitive, semi competitive or simply casual as i’m pretty sure this certain game mode is available to all kinds of summoners. It is also their choice to disregard it or not,..but it’s kind of pathetic when people complain while grinding a mode that they themselves choose to take part in 😅.
man, your responses are full of nothing but deflection and condescension, you just never fail to completely miss the actual point!
you don’t get to dismiss legit criticism from players who did/are engaging with it just because they care enough to clear content and challenges to get good rewards. nobody’s crying, we’re pointing out lazy design and a clear monetization shift. and calling it “sad” to expect better from the game is just weak. you're not above the conversation just because you tapped out early. you're outside of it. huge difference.
you’re proudly sitting out a mode you say you dislike, acting like that’s some deep, enlightened take when all you’ve really done is remove yourself from the conversation entirely!
Just move on imo, pretty sure that those with good will have already understood your point. Guy with 30+ posts -just today- told you to touch grass, why even bother arguing further. He's just projecting as per usual and is mad for no apparent reason but thinks sliding in a lol or lmao would hide his emotions It should be clear after a while that you shouldn't waste time arguing with certain users including me, I suck
You realize if I posted 30 times today then so did he since we were going back and forth right? Lmao I do agree with that last bit tho, you suck at it that's why you went really quiet after I asked you to explain how exactly they're using those Titan shards as fomo when you can get them regardless, fp2 or p2w doesn't matter you get them regardless as long as you play. Furthermore, you're retired and you're still this invested on forums? You too need to go touch some grass.
The amount of effort you spent raging about this could've easily been spent getting 825 units and 20k titan shards.
you really thought you did something with that huh? it’s a time-gated, paywalled mode — nobody’s ‘wasting time’ by pointing out how trash it is while we wait for the next drip of content. maybe read how the event works before pretending you’re the productivity police.
I was happy with the rewards I got for $7 and minimal effort. If you don't like it, that's cool, who cares? I don't like pumpkin pie. But when I go to the pie shop, I don't start yelling at the store for offering it. I just pick a different pie and move on with my life.
Yap yap yap. Go back to complaining about not being able to reparry
Bro, my F2P alt is in mysterium right now while you claim BGs is rigged and that casino poker requires skill and strategy. Stop trying to engage with me you pathetic loser, lol...
I don't think he even plays BGs at all, he's scared of bigger accounts so he just avoids BGs at all costs.
Which is fine, no one has to play modes they don't want. But it looks like he read my thread about how I can't reparry on PC the way I can on mobile and was like: "Finally, something to attack Totem with!" I really think he might be the biggest loser on the forum, which is saying A LOT...
He has his profile set on private for obvious reasons lol.
This much outrage on simply a gamemode that you can easily ignore is crazy, It also gives good rewards for minimal effort so won't advice to ignore.
you completely missed the point or chose to ignore it. it’s not just ‘something you can easily ignore’ — they purposely stuffed it with great rewards so we can’t ignore it. that’s the issue. it’s low-effort, off-brand content shoved into the game with insane rewards to force engagement, not because it’s fun or good.
acting like that’s fine is how we keep getting more of this lazy design.
“We can’t ignore it”?. I have since last Wednesday when it was released,..did one run of it for 15-20 minutes and I haven’t been back since,.,and I won’t for the remaining tine it’s available. I don’t think the rewards make it worth playing the mode,.,(it’s that bad),.,so i don’t. …see?,.., it’s easy.

But... But you were the one who had the audacity to tell someone to touch grass, it was you I think? Actually waste of time arguing with a creature like you, I deliberately ignored your question for me to explain just cause I knew that I'd get sucked into the same loop if I did. And I'll repeat myself since once is not enough for you to grasp, I won't get into an argument or share my personal analysis as I think that the comment I referred to explained my thoughts quite well.

It’s not that deep,..it’s just logical and common sense,..you obviously have none. If you don’t like it..:don’t play it. If you choose to play it (sure you can have constructive criticism,..but you have to remember that it is ultimately your choice to participate). You’ve just gone off on a endless rant about it and i was very happy to give my initial feedback on it and then leave it be. I’m on an island in the sun and you’re miserable playing this s***,..seems pretty dumb to me. Now if you excuse me i’m going back to my island. Have fun playing game modes you don’t enjoy 😜
you are basically a walking cliché of smug ignorance.
“it’s not that deep” like that magically erases how shallow your whole argument is. “don’t like it, don’t play it” isn’t insight, it’s the kind of lazy dodge people use when they can’t actually address the criticism. i did play it, which means unlike you, i can actually speak to what’s wrong with it. all you’ve done is pop in with your copy and paste “common sense” takes, then brag about being on an island like that makes your opinion any less worthless.
you’re not offering feedback, you’re just pretending disengagement equals wisdom. it doesn’t. it just means you’ve got nothing to add but uselessness. go enjoy your island, man. nobody asked for postcards from ignorance.
Who’s “smug and ignorant “. You’re ignorant enough to say Kabam is being “lazy”, when they are simply experimenting with a different type of game mode that apparently you dislike but wish to play. Maybe try growing a pair or a brain for that matter,,,geesh..get a life buddy.
nah you definitely fit “smug and ignorant” — look at you tripping over yourself trying to defend a mode you didn’t even play and didn’t like apparently, while pretending i’m the one wasting time. you keep talking like you’ve got some elevated perspective when all you’ve done is offer the most surface-level takes and then duck out behind “it’s just an experiment” like that excuses poor design.
kabam is being lazy — experimenting isn’t the problem, phoning in the execution is. and if you had actually engaged with any part of the discussion beyond your own ego, you’d get that. but nah, easier to toss out “get a life, im on an island. 🤪”
it’s just all classic insecure deflection with zero awareness, desperate posturing, and somehow thinking parroting “get a life” is a mic dropper.

you’re a joke dude, you come off like a smug, self-righteous contrarian who thinks acting dismissive makes you look above it all, trying to sound logical but constantly contradicting yourself — calling the mode “abysmal” while still defending kabam and mocking anyone who criticizes it. then you fall back on the tired “don’t like it, don’t play it” argument just to shut down actual discussion instead of engaging with the real point.
you hide insecurity behind condescension, brushing off other people’s valid frustration and criticism with the game as weakness or a lack of “common sense.” and when you run out of anything meaningful to say, then you start throwing out random insults or weird flexes about being on a beach, like that somehow makes you right, pretending to be above the debate while still hanging around in it — clearly bothered, but too proud to admit it. 😂😂😂

Meanwhile, if you’re the “competitive type”..you should accept that if you are going to 100% every piece of content then some of it you may find wont always appeal to you. Instead you are crying about having to participate in something that you choose to do because of a bar you have set yourself,..pretty sad. And nobody is irrelevant in this game no matter if you’re competitive, semi competitive or simply casual as i’m pretty sure this certain game mode is available to all kinds of summoners. It is also their choice to disregard it or not,..but it’s kind of pathetic when people complain while grinding a mode that they themselves choose to take part in 😅.
man, your responses are full of nothing but deflection and condescension, you just never fail to completely miss the actual point!
you don’t get to dismiss legit criticism from players who did/are engaging with it just because they care enough to clear content and challenges to get good rewards. nobody’s crying, we’re pointing out lazy design and a clear monetization shift. and calling it “sad” to expect better from the game is just weak. you're not above the conversation just because you tapped out early. you're outside of it. huge difference.
you’re proudly sitting out a mode you say you dislike, acting like that’s some deep, enlightened take when all you’ve really done is remove yourself from the conversation entirely!
It’s not that deep,..it’s just logical and common sense,..you obviously have none. If you don’t like it..:don’t play it. If you choose to play it (sure you can have constructive criticism,..but you have to remember that it is ultimately your choice to participate). You’ve just gone off on a endless rant about it and i was very happy to give my initial feedback on it and then leave it be. I’m on an island in the sun and you’re miserable playing this s***,..seems pretty dumb to me. Now if you excuse me i’m going back to my island. Have fun playing game modes you don’t enjoy 😜
you are basically a walking cliché of smug ignorance.
“it’s not that deep” like that magically erases how shallow your whole argument is. “don’t like it, don’t play it” isn’t insight, it’s the kind of lazy dodge people use when they can’t actually address the criticism. i did play it, which means unlike you, i can actually speak to what’s wrong with it. all you’ve done is pop in with your copy and paste “common sense” takes, then brag about being on an island like that makes your opinion any less worthless.
you’re not offering feedback, you’re just pretending disengagement equals wisdom. it doesn’t. it just means you’ve got nothing to add but uselessness. go enjoy your island, man. nobody asked for postcards from ignorance.
Who’s “smug and ignorant “. You’re ignorant enough to say Kabam is being “lazy”, when they are simply experimenting with a different type of game mode that apparently you dislike but wish to play. Maybe try growing a pair or a brain for that matter,,,geesh..get a life buddy.
nah you definitely fit “smug and ignorant” — look at you tripping over yourself trying to defend a mode you didn’t even play and didn’t like apparently, while pretending i’m the one wasting time. you keep talking like you’ve got some elevated perspective when all you’ve done is offer the most surface-level takes and then duck out behind “it’s just an experiment” like that excuses poor design.
kabam is being lazy — experimenting isn’t the problem, phoning in the execution is. and if you had actually engaged with any part of the discussion beyond your own ego, you’d get that. but nah, easier to toss out “get a life, im on an island. 🤪”
it’s just all classic insecure deflection with zero awareness, desperate posturing, and somehow thinking parroting “get a life” is a mic dropper.
Uh actually if you read i did play it,..disliked it and then had the foresight to not play it anymore because of that reason. And who is defending it,..I initially stated that i think it’s abysmal but i disagree with your assertion that anyone is “forced” to play anything no matter what type of player you are,..that’s just weak minded thinking my friend.
you’re a joke dude, you come off like a smug, self-righteous contrarian who thinks acting dismissive makes you look above it all, trying to sound logical but constantly contradicting yourself — calling the mode “abysmal” while still defending kabam and mocking anyone who criticizes it. then you fall back on the tired “don’t like it, don’t play it” argument just to shut down actual discussion instead of engaging with the real point.
you hide insecurity behind condescension, brushing off other people’s valid frustration and criticism with the game as weakness or a lack of “common sense.” and when you run out of anything meaningful to say, then you start throwing out random insults or weird flexes about being on a beach, like that somehow makes you right, pretending to be above the debate while still hanging around in it — clearly bothered, but too proud to admit it. 😂😂😂
And you come off as a self righteous idiot that rants and cries about a game mode he thinks he’s “forced to play”. How simple minded and weak that is. Keep crying ****,,..not once did I contradict myself and i am not defending kabam,..just their right to experiment with game modes. I never said i liked it or endorse it,..in fact quite the opposite,..i stated no one is forced to play it which was your dumb ass statement,..that’s not a contradiction at all simpleron.
This much outrage on simply a gamemode that you can easily ignore is crazy, It also gives good rewards for minimal effort so won't advice to ignore.
you completely missed the point or chose to ignore it. it’s not just ‘something you can easily ignore’ — they purposely stuffed it with great rewards so we can’t ignore it. that’s the issue. it’s low-effort, off-brand content shoved into the game with insane rewards to force engagement, not because it’s fun or good.
acting like that’s fine is how we keep getting more of this lazy design.
“We can’t ignore it”?. I have since last Wednesday when it was released,..did one run of it for 15-20 minutes and I haven’t been back since,.,and I won’t for the remaining tine it’s available. I don’t think the rewards make it worth playing the mode,.,(it’s that bad),.,so i don’t. …see?,.., it’s easy.
okay, you proudly missed the point, downplayed the problem, and acted like disengaging makes you wise, when in reality, it just makes you irrelevant to the discussion. here’s why:
i’m pointing out that kabam jammed valuable, top-tier rewards into garbage content specifically to force players — especially competitive ones — into engaging with it, whether they like it or not. It’s not about skipping it, it’s about how this tactic degrades the game design and sets a horrible precedent.
kabam’s entire goal with this kind of content is to test how little effort they can put in and still get engagement by attaching bait-tier rewards. players like you ignoring it does nothing if thousands more cave and buy arcade tickets.
You’re right,..i am proud of not participating in what i do not like and enjoy, and i do find it wise in disengaging in this game mode for that reason. (Why would i lessen myself by participating in this if that’s my feeling towards it)?

your whole response basically proves the exact point i made about you — defensive, smug, and deeply insecure. you just opened by calling me self-righteous while throwing out childish insults like “crying” and “simpleton”, then you try to walk a tightrope between hating the mode and still defending kabam’s “right” to experiment — as if anyone’s arguing they don’t have that right.
also, i literally just told you how what you said is contradictory but you either chose to ignore it or couldn’t comprehend it. what you don’t seem to get is: saying “no one is forced to play it” isn’t some profound counterargument — it’s a dodge.
you can pretend it’s not all you want, but throwing tantrums and name-calling doesn’t change the fact that youre just trying to shut down criticism with empty platitudes and a superiority complex.

It's... Different Game mode, but literally You can get everything just waiting and farming, You can get 81 entrances For free, so, You can do 100% without problem.
Btw you just Need 5 dollars to do it fast, way cheaper than 50 dollars fantastic keys lol
Okay, this subject went from too deep to too personal. Take a break, take a walk, take a breath.
it gets exhausting how often people in this community dodge real criticism with smug, surface-level takes like “don’t like it, don’t play it” or “it’s just a game.” or “crying” instead of actually saying anything meaningful.
they try to act above it all — and that mindset is exactly what lets bad design slide and the game suffer. sometimes people need to be told flat out.

yeah, at this point it’s like talking to a wall. you keep repeating the same surface-level point like it’s some kind of revelation, completely ignoring the actual issue. no one’s arguing that the content IS literally locked behind money, it’s not, it’s also super cheap! but do we want more of this kind of content in the future and potentially in a worse form? I DONT.
the criticism is about how it’s intentionally designed to be low effort, annoying, boring and time gated with a currency so that paying for tickets to skip feels like the better option to grab the rewards faster. it’s a test to see “how low can we go and still profit?”
the fact that people keep parroting “you can just wait” proves they’re either missing the point or refusing to engage with it. either way, it’s frustratingly dense.

I mean, You can play that daily in 10 minutes, prizes still there, like the 21 days poker mode, like the 21 days Ping mode, is not pay to win, is pay to fast, You don't Need to pay Any cent to get everything, just play daily and that's all, can't get why this amount of tears For a test mode, a test mode that Will dissapear in days, no one Will make You play it if You don't want, is like cry about Baldurs Gate because was goty and is roguelike lol.
Thank god we can decide what we can play in this Game bro.

This. Is. Not. New.
I don't know why you have such a chip on your shoulder about this Quest, but you're much more bothered by this than is necessary. People who don't care for paying are just using the free Entries. Which you're free to do. You're also free to skip the entire thing. People are not being forced to do it. If someone lacks self-control, the game is not responsible. They're doing what they've always done. Offering a game you can play for free, AND you can spend on if you choose. That's it.
But it looks like he read my thread about how I can't reparry on PC the way I can on mobile and was like: "Finally, something to attack Totem with!"
I really think he might be the biggest loser on the forum, which is saying A LOT...

You’re ignorant enough to say Kabam is being “lazy”, when they are simply experimenting with a different type of game mode that apparently you dislike but wish to play.
Maybe try growing a pair or a brain for that matter,,,geesh..get a life buddy.
Lmao I do agree with that last bit tho, you suck at it that's why you went really quiet after I asked you to explain how exactly they're using those Titan shards as fomo when you can get them regardless, fp2 or p2w doesn't matter you get them regardless as long as you play.
Furthermore, you're retired and you're still this invested on forums? You too need to go touch some grass.
Still posting 4 hours later 🥀🥀🥀
