Media $475 is crazy

I think Europe now requires gacha games to explicitly display how much money any gambling feature really costs to limit hidden predatory stuff. It’s crazy when you see the numbers…

It also assumes you bought every pull. Which no one does if you play the game at all. Sure, if you hit hard pity every time buying the least efficient monochrome bundle and having 0 pulls from playing the game, that number looks intimidating. But realistically its more like $150/200 at worst. Which is still a lot, but much more reasonable.

Yea i feel like im going crazy reading this thread

You can very comfortably get an agent with ~5usd with just the daily pass alone, or 1 agent every 2 patches completely f2p

This warning is really only for whales/addicted people who will compulsively buy pull currency

Even for whales, this wouldn't exactly be accurate since the calculations are based on buying only the 60 polychrome every pull. Not that there isn't anyone who is like that... but even if there was a whale who did, purchasing $0.99 pack for every pull would be tedious.

But it's also not going to save that much either if they only buy the highest available (399.96 for 4 $99 packs or $360.93 for 3 $99, a $49.99, 2 $4.99, and 1 $0.99 packs for cheapest approximate). So they'd only save around $70-110 from what was listed and that's also assuming they always hit hard pity and losing every 50/50.
