- Do you think this update is good overall, bad overall, or a blend?
it’s a blend at the moment because cg made poor design decisions that the player base is rightly confused by, but it’s good for light spenders while bleh for krakens and meh for ftp once it becomes apparent they aren’t losing anything
For you, what aspects are good and what aspects are bad?
good- the pass replaces conquest 10 dollar pass as best bang for your buck. yes, it is so much better that i will increase from 10 to 20 dollars per month by buying this while dropping my conquest pass purchase
bad- poorly rolled out. cg should have kept the 4 completable feats by non pass buyers while adding in the shard and pass feats. this would have lessened the feeling of “you’re taking things away from me.”
don’t update to the user, but still keep track of quests that aren’t unlocked because of shards. the constant updates are annoying to the player once they realize they’re not getting rewards
front load the omnis and ec on free track- players who aren’t going to buy the pass will adjust but throw them the bone going forward of less overall game time by letting them realize they can skip gcs now and still get their 16 omnis
Are you considering leaving this game due to this update? no
Why or why not?
it’s really not a bad update and with a few minor tweaks even ftp might say that. once players adjust to how the rewards are delivered i think people view this similarly to raid reward changes, bad dopamine rewards but same to significantly better rewards depending on track
