This update isn't as bad as we thought!?
ALRIGHT I feel like we are missing something big here. The content creators and a lot of the community seem to be operating on this premise that a game is only fun if you are better than the other players you're playing with and if you're at the top of the pile... You guys say all kinds of stuff about how it's not fun anymore because it's P2W... You know why that's wrong? Because the model of this game was built on collecting and gearing up star wars characters. That's what we are all doing and you are saying that it's not fun anymore because someone else can do it faster than you if they spend money..... Read that again!
That's their prerogative to spend money And if they do, I'm happy that they are getting more character development and are able to reap the rewards of that sacrifice. It doesn't change the fun track I'm on because they are doing so. It's not a competition. The game only has one pvp game mode because it's not a pvp game. In ga, you are supposed to be losing half the time because it's a game mode that gives you another way to enjoy your roster but still needs to reward those who have been playing longer or paying.... Which it should! I would want to be rewarded for work or money!
I play because i get excited about the next chase and collecting the characters. For example, I chase jabba because he is fun to play with and so I can get the faster mod growth. I build my roster so I get further in conquest. I have personally seen the wisdom in CGs big changes like the great nerf, the grand arena skill match change, and now this. They aren't always perfect and sometimes their changes have to build up before they make sense... like how the nerf set up omicrons. They are building an environment where we can all get that rush of building your own unique collection. I'm f2p and love that I just finished profundity, not sad because I can't play with the new characters...oh wait! Now I can!... and I don't HAVE to play coliseum every day if I don't want to. There are still all the other game modes and if I choose not to play, then I'm still on the same track I was before, not having a high gear new character, which is fine. Plenty of other things to play with. Just please remember that despite what a lot of commentators are saying, a huge part of the swgoh fan base is here not for the competition but for the collection. For which this update helps.
