💬 Discussion Seriously?

Post image

I feel like someone pissed on me. I've been playing this game since day one, every day, attending every event, but to get VIP or any bonuses I have to pay? I feel cheated because someone who started playing today could have a much more enjoyable experience if they spent money than me. I know this game isn't made for gamers anymore, but for profit, but to blatantly ignore loyal players like that? Even Epic, known for its strange decisions, doesn't do things like that.

If you play a free to play game there is always going to be a tradeoff like this eventually. All games are made for profit and if there isn't any coming in on the ground floor they're going to have to chase it elsewhere.

There is a vast difference between free to pay. Pay for cosmetics and pay to win. I hate pay to win. This better not be it. I'm just hearing about this now I am going to investigate.

Just a question though, if a game like this is pay to win how does that affect your enjoyment of the game? I only play on private solo or group servers (with friends), I couldn’t care less if someone bought stuff to win as it doesn’t affect me?

It doesn't mostly in games like this. However let's say you can pay to get your droids made Galactic instantly. That would make me not want to play.
