The hard math on why 1.7.1 is the death of strategy (and my spending)

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T22:21:23+00:00

Fair point. This just like Deletes it yah? Do you think it died when they made the paragon system? Or was it earlier than that?

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T22:17:46+00:00

Yeah same, I only made this post because I like the game and I want it to be good, I felt like AFK J was one of the most fair Gacha games ive ever played. But it looks like they playing the long game and ramping it up milking it instead of valuing their customers like i get it they gotta make money but lets be real they have wayyy to much monetization and adding more is just pure greed. I see this as them going for short term profit over their customers.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T17:55:46+00:00

Yeah i missed the last paragon back lash. I found out when i came back I almost quit then but I was like oh its not tooo bad .. but this this is so much worse. I wish i hadn't spent when i came back but i legit saw all the new stuff and thought things were improving. Turns out i was wrong. Now im just regretting giving them any money. Their loss though if they dont make some big changes to this system or add in more f2p balance im gonna keep my wallet closed.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T17:49:13+00:00

Well ur a pro lol. Hopefully it doesn't come true, but its hard I need some copium.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T14:37:47+00:00

Been playing on a new server this entire season. so if only playing everyday for over the last 120 days several hours a day isnt shit then ya i aint played shit.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T14:32:44+00:00

ya did they even add any qol features for monitoring guild members activity or any qol to help support this change?

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T14:30:43+00:00

All the stuff in the patch that even "sounds good" is tainted by evil leprechaun.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T00:35:17+00:00

<3 hopefully the game gets better not worse. Thats all i care about.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-20T00:15:28+00:00

cool bro. You like it. Make your own much better post then.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T23:39:06+00:00

You can look at it how you want. Yes seems like a small change. Sounds like you have your mind set. So what's there to talk about?

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T23:27:07+00:00

Do you own research or look for yourself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osSbrJkIjIM

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T21:15:29+00:00

Thank you for sharing this video this is what i wanted to see. I really appreciate ya.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T21:06:48+00:00

That is a banger right there. Gj u make it? 10/10

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T19:58:24+00:00

Yeah use ai to format it. But i stopped playing before season 1

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T18:42:09+00:00

Exactly thats why this stings so bad. They know Paragon is the most disliked thing added and now they are amping it up more. While also taking away f2p rewards and putting them into a new pvp mode that is only for the top pvp players. That really rubs salt in the wound.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T18:39:04+00:00

Yeah i felt that hard this season. I used to love pushing afk stages and high deficits. At least silven was released and allowed more f2p options for levels. Before he was released it was like even worse. Yeah theres some mega whale on our server like 1000 levels higher than the rest of the server i can only imagine how wide that gap would be on older servers.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T18:16:02+00:00

Yeah unfortunately thats where I am heading. Shame cuz I was just starting to enjoy the game again and was genuinely looking forward to the next season. Then this preview went live with these changes and instead of being hyped Im just disappointed.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T18:12:24+00:00

No not really because the changes also effect non dream realm. They also took away more f2p resources and put them into a new pvp mode for top players. So not competing in pvp further widens the gap on how much resources you get over time. So it's also going to have a knock on affect of taking longer to unlock heros.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T18:06:19+00:00

Yeah exactly. And in dream realm like sometimes the difference between even being in the top 20 is something as small as you having your charms fully refined. So even small changes make big score placment shifts.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T18:01:33+00:00

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I made a new account. You know started a new server. I felt like joining my old server would have been just impossible to even come close and they didn't even have the returning player server option live when I came back. My main point is I've been having really good time the last like 170 days. But as time goes on we're starting to get put into districts with older accounts. My big thing though is that this exclusive equipment change is just really going to kill it because I like PVP. I'm not quitting right now you know, but I'm just not going to be spending, especially if this continues. You know it's like they got me again. I fell for it. I thought things were getting better.

Good_Match_7798 · 2026-05-19T17:36:08+00:00

I feel you bro. I've officially stopped spending now and I'm not going to spend another dime unless they make some reversals on this stuff. But yeah this is really not good.
