With Christmas coming up, I thought it would be important to express my gratitude for this game, its developers, and the entire franchise. Thank you SO SO MUCH, Popcap. The original was a favorite of mine the moment it came out- and although I wasn't old enough to understand the strategy and play the game yet, I adored watching my brothers playing it. I still remember a specific day when my oldest brother had finally gotten to the final boss not long after the release of the game, and me and my brothers were so excited about it, we all crowded around the computer one summer night and watched as he faced off against Dr. Zomboss. The whole thing was magical to me. I loved humor of the game, but also loved the whole idea and the strategy. Fast forward 2 years, I was around 7 and finally started playing it myself and it became even more amazing to me. Then with the release of the second game and the garden warfare spinoffs, I have been absolutely loving those. So I guess I would just like to say, thank you popcap, for creating a positive experience and fantasy for me to grow up on and to foster my love and skills of strategy, creativity, and planning ahead. Thank you and happy holidays to everyone!

@spIash_damage I'm sorry I wasn't trying to say that others are ungrateful for the game- I understand it must of seemed that way but I was honestly just feeling many grateful for many things lately and felt I should express that to the game developers.

My loving the game isn't much different than yours with the exception I'm VERY OFFENDED they're trying to force us to financially support this game, especially in the current state. To be fair, I made some of my fondest memories to date with my son in GW1 and daughter in GW2. They both refuse to play BfN and they're the only reason I tried GW1. It's SAD to me. You offended me zero and if anything, made me smile.I didn't want the 2nd guy/gal who posted to misunderstand us... that's all. I also don't believe we're being communicated with enough to thank the devs (Team Swap, FOMO, currency exchanges, Rux items returning or not, etc, etc, etc,).=]EDIT: typo

@dwooten77 I love to play the pve and garden ops, and I spend almost too much time in giddy park messing with friends 😂. My favorite role is support
@Splash_Damage Apologies for that misunderstanding on my part

I bought gw2 a couple months after it came out. I loved it, but after all the single player, I kind of stopped playing.
When battle for neighborville came out, I got more into online multiplayer and I gotta say I love this community! Such a positive experience to what I’ve experienced in the past😂

@PineapplePianoOccasionally we might get grumpy in the forum (thinking of my own moaning!), but that's because we all love the franchise & want to help BFN be the best it can be.

The PvZ games (which like you I've loved for years since my son got me to play GW) are the only multiplayer games I play, BECAUSE of the community.

I'm so glad I got involved in the forum this year, as it's great to know there's a whole other kind of extended family to help even if we don't all play together because we're on different platforms in different places!

It's so good to see your positivity & enthusiasm - enjoy your holiday play! 😊
Edit: clarification!
