RE: 🎲 Daily Opening & Giveaway, Ep. 22 🎲 Opening a DICE!! 🎲 50 more SPS up for grabs!! 🎲

I'm SUPER excited about Chaos Legion in general, don't get me wrong.

but I really hate the move to extend Vouchers into the sale. Ultimately, it doesn't do a thing for newcomers, all it does is extend out the sale longer, and make it so new players are held hostage to a secondary market (again) despite being promised that this would be different.

And it will be different, when it finally stops having voucher requirements. That could be a week, that could be months though, and that factor WILL matter significantly. A few weeks will be fine, I think. Months will destroy the new player experience to the point where I think we'll be bleeding all of the growth that's been made over the last year.

It also inflates packs further, and really REALLY hurts accessibility IMO, which is what the game SO desperately needs for the new players coming in, right now. We've been arguing to new players that these packs are their saving grace to get cheap cards, but, just kidding, Collection Power is halved, quartered for higher rarities and prices are doubled, so even at base sale, they have to spend 4x more to get the same average CP and value. Plus vouchers are locked behind another huge paywall, plus those vouchers carry on into the sale, so you're going to need to buy secondary packs from an inflated secondary market that takes all of the benefits of the packs from you.

It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth for small, lower budget, new players. It feels like the ladder rungs are being torn out as people are climbing and there's a glass ceiling being put in its place.

I have faith in the game, I'm sure that WILL change, but right now that's an inescapable reality, and it sucks to have to tell new players "Just wait for it to get better"

Gosh that was a long one, have some !PIZZA
