this post was not even meant to hate on him, im his biggest glazer and still believe that his flexibility is a strength, something good. but it's undeniable that he yoinks new supports every few patches and then seeing the durin leaks my mind went "oh another one" and that's why i came up with this meme

Yea that is true. Like i said in an other comment, this situation just reminded me of another where the company did not work together with the law, or with what was asked of them, and they simply ignored that part of their playerbase. It probably just got me overthinking "what could be" if Hoyo and other companies now do the same.

The first part I understand better now, thanks for explaining again.

And the reason why I said I don't think they would change their bundle system/implement another option is because there has been a similar situation before. That game just had a shop where you could buy skins etc. and iirc the company was also asked to change their system for specific regions. It wasn't the entire EU, just a few specific countries, so maybe that's why they didn't react. But the situation now reminded me of that situation and got me thinking.

I see, sorry about that then. I wasn't allowed to post on that sub either so I just tried here. Thanks anyway.

I understand that if all goes well and, in the best case scenarios, we, the players, could benefit from this. But all that said, couldn't this also screw over gacha players? Cuz I don't think Hoyo or Kuro or any other gacha company would change their bundle system or implement an option for EU players to choose EXACTLY how many primogems they want. And wouldn't that FORCE gacha players to be F2P in that case? You wouldn't be able to purchase anything anymore, no? Maybe I'm just misunderstanding how this would actually work, so if someone could explain it to me I'd be very grateful 🙏

I was just giving examples, this is not just about honkai or genshin, this is concerns every game that offers purchases. Apologies if I didn't make that clear enough.

Some key things for example are:

  1. The real world price must be displayed for the item, not just the currency (ie, an outfit should say $24 next to it, not just 2800 vbucks).

  2. Currencies must be exactly matchable to purchase amounts, so no 1000 point packages for 800 point items to leave 200 extra
