Prize Bulbs On Sale For Rainbow Stars

@shurikeninjaIt does harm players though, which others have talked about why in this thread. I couldn't disagree more about the prizemap being "really really easy" to complete, neither can I relate to bulbs being just too plentiful! The "difficulty" of completing the prizemap is highly subjective. I can say without a doubt, that most people just don't have time for this, and with the strict time limits.. it just puts pressure on them to buy their way out of it if they don't want to miss out on something. That's the entire point. This is harmfully taking advantage of people susceptible to this fear... and of course children.. You just aren't considering the fear of missing out, which might not affect you, but you have to understand that it does affect others! The purchasable bulbs just adds some more pressure to people who don't think they can finish the prizemap in time. Its really just more FOMO garbage. I realize my post may have come off as overly negative, but I still do stand by what I said, which I also don't think it was an overreaction. There hasn't been much good news about anything lately, and now they decided to add a little fun surprise for everyone in their latest patch, which just adds onto my already least favorite aspect of this game. This is very off putting for a lot of people, which may not include you, and that's fine, but you really have to consider the feelings of others here. Just give some of the other posts in this thread a read, there are some nice ones that might help you understand. Like it or not, this is going to hurt the game and its playerbase. You know, the patience of a loyal fan is a lot more than any other person who bought this game. And... when we get to the point where there is a majority of long time players bringing up their concerns about this........ well.. there might actually be a problem here. 🤔

You said it yourself, this is a "dumb idea". So why are you okay with it? Why should it be allowed in the game? Why keep your standards that low? You paid for this game, and really shouldn't be rooting for anything anti-consumer. It just doesn't make any sense defending this when absolutely no one benefits from it. This is purely harmful.

And your comments about GW 2 I can understand, but you keep failing to consider that nearly every single thing in GW 2 was able to be unlocked for FREE. It also didn't push extremely strict time limits, other than Rux (which could also be bought from for free, unlike BFN). Nobody is trying to say that GW 2 was perfect monetization wise, but it was undoubtedly better! 

I'm of course not saying your opinion is wrong, just that this is subjective and you need to consider that. However, something I think everyone should be able to agree on is that they absolutely have no business in pushing ANY FORM of monetization when their game is in such a poor state. Once again, if they want to keep being anti-consumer with an already upset playerbase.... you might as well just close the game's servers right now.
