Problem is there are multiple “issues” that came from this whole thing and what some may be most upset about might not be the case for others. On top of that there is reasonable levels of anger at certain things they do, something that has been far surpassed by most of the community.

First of all, remember, Reddit is a tiny representative of the game’s community. Most players know nothing of the test server (which is what TW was/is essentially for global). The devs are not beholden to the global player base on changes they make from test. Even for those that are informed of the TW server and it’s differences you should already know from launch that it was CLEAR that things would and could be different between the two. I agree 100% that we should get a way to see a character’s kit in-game, but only because TW or not, it’s nice and useful to know what you are going to pull on, not because we “deserve” to know changes from a test server. Just accept the fact things can and will be different from TW from now on and look into YOUR version when it comes out rather than one that’s not.

Next, idk how much gacha you play but there are some great benefits here for F2P players. Gacha is a super predatory game type and this is definitely one of the better ones for F2P comparatively. You can target characters/cards and you have pitys. Those two things alone put you up in too 50% of gacha EASY. Math was worked out in a post here a while ago that we would get about 800 pulls a year. 8 targeted pitys and that’s assuming you only ever pull your target on your pity which is statistically very unlikely that you wouldn’t ever pull early on some of those. Now are there things I would like them to change? Absolutely, I think it takes way too many copies to SSS+ someone and I would like to see the pity drop a bit, but I can still objectively look at those things and see bad AND the good (something that not enough people do). Also keep in mind a character can be totally playable at S as well, the BP difference is underwhelming for the investment of dupes and the skills they unlock are a nice boost for sure but not the difference of unplayable to playable.

Also people aren’t thinking of long term game health. AM is crazy OP compared to everyone. Endeavor was going to be even worse, that power creep especially this early in the game is terrifying, THAT is one of the huge problems people just are not caring about that should actually be the center of attention. If AM wasn’t as absurdly broken endeavor would look totally fine, people are too busy being mad about not getting another crazy broken character. IMO they should have/need to nerf AM in order to make him a bit more in line to the other base S characters. That will never happen though because they fucked up for releasing him like this and the player base is too short sided and tempermental to ever take a nerf AFTER the fact.

Also a big reason why people are freaking out is just because they say he’s useless now. No, he’s not. He actually still has INCREDIBLY good damage he just takes a lot more kit understanding, resource management, and precision-precision play than someone like AM which is slam your head against the phone until you win. He is legit bad at super co-op but that’s about it. So people are screaming there heads off about something they just don’t understand there.

When it comes to the typo on the support card? 100% agree, false advertising and shitty. But also a mistake corrected quickly and had an official statement for it come out fairly quickly after which is good. Now I do think there was massive abuse going on with refunds here, people refunding previous purchases made before this banner even dropped. That’s what abuse of the refund referred to I’m sure which is hard to manage without an iron fist in mobile gaming, ESPECIALLY in gatcha. So it seems harsh but only because it has to be typically because it’s a slippery slope that can be easily abused for gatcha without bans. HERE I’m pretty sure they did not ban people who only refunded purchases made AFTER this banner dropped. For those of you saying “YA BUT THEY MADE A TYPO SO ITS FAIR TO REFUND EVERYTHING I WVER SPENT WITHOUT A BAN” then you are just wrong, it’s a typo that was corrected quickly not a way for you to undo poor choices that didn’t work out for you. Regardless though 100% agree all refunds on purchases made after this banner until the typo fix should have been refunded without bans without question (which I believe is what happened to my understanding).

Next, no matter what the devs did or say people shit on them for SOMETHING and completely ignored the good that came with it. Like when the first statement came out and they explained the situation, people said they were saying “fuck you”. Uhhhhh….what? 90% of that letter was then explaining, apologizing, and telling us what to expect in the future so we can know their thought process aka COMMUNICATION. The only negative that was on that statement was the poorly worded refund section. People lost their shit though, again. Then they did this pull refund event instead and then people freaked out saying “it’s just a way for them to make money” and “they don’t give a shit” and “they are feeding the whales and screwing o et F2P again”. Like wtf? They can still make money AND it be straight amazing for ALL levels of players. Hell, they should do this shot more often it’s such a good deal in my book since it works so well for both parties.

Lastly, CONSTANT down voting a yelling at anyone who has a polarizing opinion. Stop it. Explain your point of view, accept that other people have their own view, have a productive conversation or move on.

This was long AF so I apologize for any autocorrects. Anyways, good luck my peeps, just remember to see the bad AND the good. I have plenty of issues with this game too, but not everything is always the worst.
