RE: This Friday is Hivechess fun time - join and win 500 GLX!

Thanks for the additional information. One can see it positive (more games, etc.), or rather a way to suck out money from all the presales, and before one game is finished, the already start working on the next. Not sure yet, which interpretation comes closer to the reality.
Anyway, since I had bought a licence, I get regularly GLX tokens :)

Sort:  

I think similarly, generally, not much positive to see in it (only, the token(s) have some chance). It was pretty much sck out money from presales. :) at least, that's what i was seeing, too. I think, within Hive, they made such a bad reputation, if they don't make extra good game from the Goals, just matter of time, and nobody will be around.

Then you know the lots of delays in the Goals, basically, during this period, last 1 year, more or less the building of Arcade Colony platform (not any other game, just another platform for games) caused the delays. Obviously, it didn't have any visible result for average user like me. I really didn't understand it, have some basics about programming, so if they were working on GLG, how they said, based on result, it would had to take much less time. After a year waiting, just turned out, what was the real reason.

What was really annoying, they kept going with bunch of lies, bullsht through this period, and from 1 day to another, they said: this Arcade Colony is nearly ready, some 3rd party game will be launched on it. Go buy stuff!... :) Not even an apology, they were bullshting everybody through 1+ year...

Anyway, it will hit back to them, as without real, outside Hive marketing, very few people will spend the smallest amount for S2 packs in GLG. Lowest level of trust's gone, so 100% nobody will buy anything anymore from them, before seeing the final product, so this time, they really have to make something, not just promises.

Now a GLG pack costs 3 Hive on the market - 60c. If you imagine they sold it for what? 5$? OMG

Yeah... 😂 "Fortunately", I've found game later, so I bought them on 2nd market for $2.6-2.8... so far I just have less loss than most of people. It was $4-4.5 over 100 packs in pre-sale.

Lucky you, I had bought hundreds of packs in the "presale". A lesson learned forever!
