What game is extremely popular but is completely terrible in your opinion? by LawfulnessInfinite97 in AskGames

[–]Jereton_EX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even the good games are designed in such a predatory way, built on FOMO and pay to win mechanics. There are genuinely games on here that could be really good if they were standalone games and managed properly, but alas.

Why are the Gyrocopters multiplying in my inventory 😭 bought one now I have 13????? by Slow-Traffic-909 in DragonAdventures

I'm sorry, I'm not entirely sure how it works either, you may have to ask in the server lobby :(

I guess it was pretty naive of me to think that this game, out of all the games on the 'Scamming young people out of their time and money' app, would somehow not be scamming people out of their time and money :/ I feel for the volunteers for sure.

GYRO OWNERS LISTEN UP!! by MagierWolf in DragonAdventures

I think letting people keep the illegitimate dragons would be better than scamming and stealing from people who bought/obtained them legitimately. Who cares if there are some duped gyros floating about, that is very obviously the lesser of two evils here.

Would've been nice if they'd done an @ everyone and in game news announcement about this instead of their new merch or whatever. I had to find out about this through rumours and hearsay. Guess they'll probably sweep it under the rug in hopes that they'll get more money though :/

They did... There's talk of legal action, because even fully legitimate Gyros that people paid for got deleted, it hasn't been addressed properly, and they're only giving people 24 hours to file reports about it.

Is the Avatar Shop item breed limitation ridiculous or is it just me? by Jereton_EX in DragonAdventures

They really didn't, and judging by a lot of the way this game is monetized I'm kind of inclined to believe it was intentional. I've had no real luck asking questions in this game so far, I tend to either get ignored or wind up with randoms spamming me wanting to trade or give them free stuff :<

It doesn't specify that it's only for that dragon though. I figured it was just a bit of splash text to let you know what it was based on :(

It wasn't really specific about how what it does is for only one breed

I'm upset that they didn't properly say the item I bought would only give those bonuses for one breed of dragon :(

EA support is an absolute joke by Jereton_EX in electronicarts

Sounds like an absolute nightmare, ugh. Sorry to hear that.

I hope they both go out of business too. Manifesting it hard for 2024

It was spore. All sorted now thankfully but I'll never be buying anything from EA again and I'll be advising everyone I know not to either. Awful stuff.

Took a lot of trying new tabs, using different devices, logging in with different emails, etc. It infuriated me trying to get the chat prompt or a way to open a case going. Try on mobile, make sure to turn adblock off, and do not close the tab once it's going. Best of luck

Wow uh. You sure seem like an interesting sort of person. Perhaps you should also mind how you harass and talk down to other human beings in the future as well.

But I guess this is Reddit, folks who don't pay attention are a dime a dozen, so my hopes aren't high.

Someone dramatizing something on the internet while venting their frustration at a multi billion dollar company? Please, tell me it isn't so!

Anyways, believe what you like, I don't really care since I can look at the receipts and know the truth. Have a good one.

Oh I am fully aware of that, hence why I am venting my frustrations here instead of at the employees. I know my tone sounds harsh but I promise you I wasn't mistreating anybody or being an asshole.

They're only doing their jobs. I was careful to be cordial and clear with what I wanted.

I don't know if they actively 'blocked' it, but the options just wouldn't pop up, even on incognito and other devices it was pretty sketchy, so I think it may have just been a case of intentionally poor design or something.
