Well done, CG. Well done. Raking in money at the expense of gameplay. Of course, your pockets will be full again now because a lot of people who want to be or stay at the top will buy the datacron w...
I actually think they can be a fun aspect of the game, and they give you a way to differentiate your teams. They can also be fun when they focus on crazy abilities for characters that nobody uses otherwise, like the current Sidious spin-to-win cron.
Where I really dislike them is where they give significant defensive boosts to teams, making them almost impossible to beat. This is similar to the Great Mothers datacron we had a while back, where that one team could completely shut down your TW or GAC. We started to figure out ways around it, but it was still a miserable team to fight. I don't think it's as big a deal for offensive teams, since, even if they are OP, they don't ruin your TW or GAC experience. The original Bane DC was overpowered, but I only have 1 Bane, and he isn't very useful on defense, so I can't just throw him down on D and assume my opponent will get stuck. If we end up with a situations where the best you can usually hope for is a 2-shot, in a game mode where it often comes down to banner efficiency, it's going to be a long few months.
