SWGOH is Prohibiting New Users.....
As someone who has been playing two years, I can say the app is just way too much at this point. Too much crap, not enough playable content. There is NO WAY a new user could even start at this point. Everyone is pushing G13, there are too many new toons and reworks, too many factions needed now for TB and GA, just too much. Two years in, I have no G13 toons, so there's a grind for that gear. I'm still grinding toons needed for legendaries that are over a year old. And then there's gear for them, it's not just the character shards. But now I have to work on my Separatists, even with a million other things I should be doing first, because of the new TB, which I need for any hope at G13. In short, there is just so much that you "need" to do, and with no actual playable content added in ages (Geo TB doesn't count, it's just another TB), this app is becoming worthless to most potential players. Forget that it's nothing but sim and auto every day, but that sim and auto is getting you almost nothing useful anymore. I am unable to progress in any meaningful way because of all the things I "need" to be able to play for... for what? More gear!? Where is the fun? There are no longer clear goals to work towards, I have about 50 toons that need nearly impossible to drop gear, that have been sitting this way for a year now. I have toon shards dropping at abysmally low rates over YEARS (33% does NOT hold up, trust me). If you're going to keep adding 'end game' content, then make the mid-game stuff easier to come by, or you will have no one left playing. Maybe all you care about are your couple thousand whales, but imagine what happens if you stop gaining new players, and existing ones start leaving in droves. How much longer will whales spend when they have no one else to beat out on anything. The spending is to get them ahead of the masses. No more masses, no more spending.
