What will it cost us to keep playing SWGOH??

You completely missed the point and are as tone deaf as the the people making this game.

The math only checks out if you constantly eyeball the feats and remember to get everything from the stores before refreshes every time. It took a 2-3 step process and quadrupled it over the course of a month. Its like the calendars. Same value as if you bought it outright, but if you end up forgetting and missing a couple days, your out of luck with those resources. as for the GC's. First it was pure rebel fighters that was hard to max out without Luthen, then it was tuskens, who you could get literally 0 zero feats done if you don't have them, and now the next one is Jawas...seeing a pattern? All it takes is a quick look on the forums and its very clear this isn't a "you" problem. People are rightfully pissed. They took something that we had for free before, and decided to gatekeep it behind a paywall. A slap in the face is still a slap in the face, even if there is an apology after. I mentioned this in another post, but more people have Rey, SLKR, SEE, JML, Jabba, Leia, and JMK than they do a full tusken team, and I'm sure the same is probably true for Jawas. This update has some good, and a lot of bad. CG just can't help themselves. Whenever they give something to the players, its always followed by taking something away. If CG was a person, they'd be that person everyone knows who even when they're trying to be nice, they can't go two seconds without giving a backhanded compliment. Not exactly good company.
