I think it is a BIG DEAL.
10% more cards matters. That was the point of saving 5000 gems, so you can get that extra 10%.
More importantly, the general rule of good business is if you were giving something to your customers before, you should never take it away.
And as a customer, I am not happy this was taken away from us.
I was saving for a long time to get that extra 10% cards.
Well, leave. Seriously. Find a card game that gives you more and go enjoy that. That's how capitalism works.
And what business do you run? EA runs a very successful one. So do i. I used to give free estimates, i had to stop that due to gas prices. Still in business. But thanks for the lesson in business. You're obviously the one to ask.
But leave. Your entitled self won't be missed. And frankly, i don't want my few hundred bucks supporting ungrateful people like you.
If i had to guess... you're a millenial and a liberal... I'm right aren't i? Cause apparently the world owes you, and logical arguments don't matter as much as how you feel.

LoL. You are not even close.
In fact I am a conservative.
I also happened to be quite accomplished in business.
And yes, I am considering leaving.
Not so much because I don't enjoy the game but as a matter of principal because I feel betrayed by EA.
Yes, my feeling matters. A drop of poison can spoil the sweetest dish.
As far as logic goes. Perhaps if they gave something to replace the functionality they took away, I'd be more accepting. But they didn't give anything, had they.
In fact your "logical" argument is basically "swallow whatever they give you and be happy with it".
Finally, it appears to me that you haven't contributed any value to the discussion except telling me I should leave. Obviously my post has somehow agitated you. Perhaps it is you who'd like to leave the forums.

Okey, first of all...are you some kind of billionair? A "few HUNDRED bucks"!!! Who would spend so much money in something like this? Even if that is your fav game of all time, the amount of money is just crazy, but its your money so I dont care, it just shocked me.
So yes your right all card games are P2W, REAL card games, where you get REAL cards that you can sell on ebay or amazon, but this is a mobil card game, these cards are worth nothing.
Of course they have to get money from the game, but not in this extent. I know Popcap for years and they werent always that money hungry.
That game was made for kids, but like any other kids game, adults play it too. The majority is still under 16 years. And you can get all cards too, without spending real money, but the amount of time and gem grind is overwhelming.
- 8 years agoCan you sell your hearthstone cards easier? Animation throwdown? Do those game give you as much for free? Huh, new to me. Even go fish has in app purchases. Again. Name one that is better. So far nobody can, but you ask still talk about how unfair this game is... you know why? Because you like this one. You know what you should do if you like a product? Support it.
Emp... what did your remarks add beyond entitlement? And EA did add... they gave you up to 200 gems a day from 30. Then gave you time to exploit it. You just want more, emp. You want your free deck to get you to ultimate (instead of matching you with other free players for fair matches) you want the decks i paid for through whining, not effort or paying
Schattenpflanze, what does it matter to you what i spend my money on? Do you have cable? Because i think tv is stupid, but i wont judge you for probably spending thousands on it at this point in your life. But my spending is with a point. I regressed to buy ea for a few years. They were horrible. Ive chosen to give them money on this game because i like what they're doing and i want them to continue. It's called capitalism. Im telling them how i feel with my wallet.- 8 years ago
@daalnnii I dont watch TV, maybe the news. Also I got the game to play it and not watching adds all day. The result of pay to win games is a grindy guy spending money all day into the game before he realized it was to much, now he is addicted to it, maybe you should see the game from another perspective, maybe from the perspective of an child that wants to play a mobil game without spending his whole lifetime and/or money into it to get the feeling that its fun. Thats the reason young players quit it soon, while the 40 year old republican businessman still plays it.
PS: That was just an example for what I see the game becomes.
