I know multiple posts have been made about this , my purpose with this post is to try to get as many people to email customer support / downvote and if possible stop spending money on this game until they revert the change
At some point we have to draw a line , they can't keep getting away , this creates a bigger problem than just this , things like this will keep happening in the future
100,000 + shinedust is too much of a resource to just not give to people who actually spent their time , effort and resources to collect it , we need to make ourselves clear in this front and get this reverted or Dev's giving us some form of compensation at least
This is one of the biggest slaps to face I've ever seen in a game , it's a simple thing to retroactively apply a change but they didn't likely intentionally like others I also suspect that this is to try to hook in newer fan base but Shinedust isn't the way to hook newer players
I do not think that this will hook new players , for first thing new players are hooked with immediate gifts or head start or short term rewards
It takes 14 days to unlock it and on top of that their missions will take an incredible amount of slow grind to win which isn't really stimulating , these 100k are spread across nearly 15 expansions with per mission giving a very very small fraction of that which isn't actually we enticing to new users as we think , this is just a slap to older players
Even under the assumption that this was given in bulk it still doesn't help the case , battling has no connection with shinedust
Shinedust is overwhelmingly used for collection and 2 star swaps which are not the type of things which gives players a headstart
And at some point it's impossible for new players to just catch up on collection , collecting rare cards in ptcg is a slow grind over months , old players will always have advantage the collection most of us have is after 1.5 years of efforts , same applies to most other games new players miss things and they are aware of it , you don't need to fuck older players
Note - these past 3 para were to address some people defending the chance using the reasoning that it gives headstart to newer players
I am sincerely hoping that the community will take a strong collective stance regarding this change and make them revert it either fully or partially , i myself have written to customer support and rated the game 1 star in the playstore
