"it will be more advantageous to some people than others" and being at a disadvantage is similar to being screwed, to the point where some people could almost consider and use them exchangeable terms
With mobile games, new content/releases is bound to "screw" someone and leave them in an less than optimal position (could be due to something as simple as "not enough credits" or something more deep) though eventually most will learn, do the things needed/required and get into a good position, maybe not in advantageous position compared to the rest of the players but not one where they're at a disadvantageous position that screws them and leaves them comfortable with their progress, since that's the nature of these games, to (hopefully) learn, build and grow
Honestly though I can't see this convo going anywhere else but in circles, plus we're in completely different time zones for the most part so this is just going to be inconvenient if it continues so lets just understand most of eachother's points, agree to disagree with the rest and move on to better things, like preparing for our guilds for Geonosis and the challenge (and hopefully fun) it brings and chilling with our guildmates in the mean time
No, that is not how that works.
There are literally no options that does not disadvantage someone in game design. That is not someone being screwed.
To assert that someone is being screwed suggests malicious intent. It inherently makes it personal, and removes the capacity to be reasonable about the decision or try and view it from both sides. Framing it as getting "screwed" is the most useless way you can frame it, is wrong, is wrongheaded, and makes the community a worse place by fostering toxicity using inappropriately incendiary language over routine matters.
New content release isn't screwing anybody. There's just more game now. That's not a punishment. That is literally what we're all here for.
I don’t necessarily agree that getting screwed implies malicious intent. People say things like “That dodge screwed me” in a battle. We say “Team X got screwed by that call” all the time in sports. That doesn’t mean the officials did it on purpose. Getting screwed can just be bad luck.
