By saying "it will nullify the investment so many of us have put into your shiny new Negotiator", you ignoring those that saved up for Malevolence, what about their investment ? Screw it, just because you (and others) have Negotiator and want Malevolence right now without spending GET2, sorry that not how any of this works.
First, hoarding an unspent resource is not an investment.
Of course it is. I've invested in the future by holding the required currency. As soon as it drops I can unlock, if I want (hint: I won't, because it might not be better than Negotiator). I also have all the prestige I need to instantly max.
And, again, as has been pointed out, this was extremely obvious. We knew Malevolence was coming. We knew we were getting another GET2 farm. Not sure why people get all uppity about things they knew were going to happen.
Wrong, you have not invested it. If CG said we are giving everyone a 7* Malevolence out of the goodness of our hearts (not saying they will, just giving you a hypothetical) you could still use that GET2 for the Negotiator because it is not yet invested.
Once it is spent, that is the investment. By keeping money in your checking account, you are not investing, you are saving. By buying a stock and riding the ups and downs of it, you are investing in that stock.
No, I have 100% invested in the future of my game by not jumping at the new shiny. Just because you're mad that you invested in Negotiator and now can't invest in Malevolence, doesn't mean I've not invested mine by leaving them in savings.
I'm not mad at anything, I have not invested in the Negotiator. But you are still wrong, you are saving, not investing.
No, I am investing in my future.
I agree with StarSon here. I think it's fair to call it an investment because he's foregoing having the Negotiator now (which he has said he could have already unlocked) to see how the Malevolence plays out. Meanwhile, I'm sure his fleet arena is filled with Negotiators and that has made his climb even more difficult. He's choosing to not have the competitive edge now to potentially have it later.
I see. So he can only use it for the Malevolence? Or could he still invest it in the Negotiator at a later date?
Not investing in a specific thing =/= investing in the future. If you are not investing in Apple stock right now and leaving the money in your savings account to maybe buy some other stock down the road, does that mean you are investing in your future by default? Or is that just called saving?
