Welcome to the club. I lucked out and didn't have it happen to me when the change first happened, but one sleepy morning when I was just going through the motions I got about 800c deep before I realized I was buying trash toons I already had maxed instead of the for credits gear. CG knew what they were doing no matter how many times they claim it was to help us out by putting 4 year old toons up there for crystals (in the CREDITS shop) where we've been conditioned for years to click mechanically 4 times a day.

You admitted that the only time you made a mistake was when you were sleepy and weren't paying attention to what you were buying

and then you "gaslight" CG for your own mistake

CG made a change that isn't intuitive and that has put players in a position where it's possible to make a mistake. The change was made to take a bit more money out of the pockets of players. As 'phase 2' making those crystal purchases specifically aimed at players never happened; I really can't see how it can be defended.

How, is having crystal/currency/crystal purchases a positive change over currency/crystal?

The less simple something is, the more likely a user will make an error. If you make something less simple to use than it was before, you should be culpable.

Its not a positive change but CG can move things around at their will and there is nothing wrong with it since its a freemium game

As long as the items are available for the same quantity or more, at the same store, for the same price or less, I don't see much of a problem

For sure, they moved it around so that people would spend more crystals, and would look at crystal related items before going to credits, because I know, I used to get the 4 credits and then never looked at anything else

The idea here is, "Hey there is some great toons available for crystals, you should look at what we have not just the credit stuff" rather than "Gotcha accidental purchases" imo

Either way, we both are in agreement that they made it so that people would spend crystals and I don't think its something to chastise the developers over it since, again, they didn't take anything away from us regarding what we used to get, they just moved some of the existing items around which can be annoying from a QOL perspective as a player
