No apologies need it, I get change is frustrating. This particular instance I'm actually hopeful will be a net win in practice. The area that I'm personally a bit concerned about is people that only rent for brawls. Hopefully we can figure out something there or the cost of season rentals will drop enough that it makes sense to rent for the whole season and play ranked/tournaments/brawls with the cards.
I also rent a few days a week and not whole season so I understand the sentiment of those who are only their for their guilds. It just seems and sounds like a price hike for playing the game rather than an overall better experience.
I do hope they can find a compromise between the daily and season rentals or at least, put this in pending and discuss this further before applying it not like a ticking time bomb that will be applied anytime soon.
Honestly, I feel bad because if this happened, like with what I told to the other person, the only compromise I can see is the daily renter like me, are the ones adjusting. I will be FORCED not to play on the start of the season and just play like 5 or 7 days towards the end of the season because the rental would be too high to rent it at the start of each season. This means the overall playtime of this game would be lower.
Lower playtime means it would also be harder to find investors outside Splinterlands to invest on collabs for this game. It's like lowering traffic on a website, which I think investors also check before doing any investment. Not a lot want to invest on a game where only few people play
