Love how y’all worded it like we need more “dedication.” No, you want us to spend our entire damn paychecks. Not worth and especially not worth considering you ignore your player base’s requests repeatedly on how to improve your game. The jab at someone unprovoked is so incredibly unprofessional. 😷
I’m cancelling my subscription. This is ridiculous. You should only have to own ONE avi to get furni drops. I’m not buying Avis i don’t want 💅✨
Exactly this! 👏🏻 This isn’t just an “oops” moment. I sure as hell am not accepting 2 lite boxes as compensation for her mistake, they can shove them lol. What she said was disrespectful af and SHOWS they don’t care about ANY of the PIMD community. Disappointed but not surprised in the slightest, though.
Shut your broke asses up, the 110/110 avi isn’t supposed to be for everyone lmfao. Expect them to give it out for free? Wake up
My bank is crying just reading this post and I'm not even planning to open any shards. Seriously, all 7 avi just to start the story quest for a chance to get the furnis. So you either gotta be bento rich or make poor financial choices kinda rich to even get a start on it.
Honestly…don’t hate the idea, just one little tweak. 🤏🏻 Make the shards drop from parties for FREE if you’re going to do something like this. It’s a lot already to get the 110/110 avatars and we have so many shards in the shop right now. If the shards dropped from parties for free this would be amazing! I definitely won’t be paying a penny for these shards when they don’t even look good (imo). I also hate the weird shading on them.
I think there's also a misunderstanding that this is SP btw. I keep hearing people say you have to get all of this for story pass... which isn't so lol. This is separate. For the Chinese Zodiac Avi, I remember people also having to collect a bunch of avatars for an additional set. I guess this one is more difficult than that.
Oh piss off. A lot of the people complaining are the ones who have spent on pimd since day one. The heavy spenders are even tired. Buying seven avis you don’t like is ridiculous and purely out of greed. Oh piss off. Try reading first before you come in acting ignorant and incompetent. I am sorry that reading and basic comprehension are difficult for you.
I think people are using story pass because Marcie used the term story quest, which the Chinese Zodiac also included -- like one tier that required you to post in Campus chat, equip the basic avi, and drop a few cats. So sort of a super mini story pass.
I'd like to start by apologizing for my "English," but it's not my native language and some language barriers may arise in this comment. Honestly, I'm not a dev, but I think it's safe to say that ATA is breaking itself. With "events" like this, ATA primarily finances the Black Market, more than it finances itself. This is because, given the discontent of the players, there will be some players who will perhaps spend all that money, just to be able to sell shards and get bentoes and, at the same time, There will be just as many players (and, perhaps, the same ones) who will sell bentoes for real money to those desperate people who want to have the dorm and the 110/110 avatar. In short, fewer people will spend in the app, because buying bentoes at the black market will still be cheaper than opening 9 boxes of shards (if we pretend that with 9 boxes you can have all the avis without duplicates). Furthermore, the game is now starting to get quite boring because it is more focused on finding a way to earn more money, on your part, than on the players' enjoyment and requests of the player base. Upgrading and growing in the game seems almost impossible without spend money. Even the trading prices within the game have increased because everyone is hungry for as many bentos as possible to be able to buy, trade, everything that is not affordable for them. Until recently, you could buy a 999 for 15-20🍱, now for almost the same amount, you can buy a recycling 999. 🤷🏻♀️ You should consider making all events accessible to all players, with a free and a paid option, a bit like with story passes. In this case, I would have done an event like this: - Once you've obtained an avatar, you begin this special quest, which requires you to complete the dorm. Once completed, you'll get 60/60 avatars. - By obtaining all 7 avatars, however, at the end of the quest, you get the 110/110 avatar. This way, more people would have spent. Not just those who can afford to spend hundreds, but also those who might have spent to get 200 ecs. There wouldn't have been all the discontent that ensued, you would have made more players happy, also creating something different. Instead, even those who can afford to spend hesitate a little because they feel cheated. As for the originality of the event itself, I don't really like the avatars. They're a bit of a collage of the avatars you get with Pluto and the current Animal Soul Shards. That would be fine, if it weren't for the fact that you ask players to talk to you, conduct surveys, do and say things, but then you don't want to listen to our needs and requests.
You do in other subforums (for 5 minutes after posting), just not in announcement threads by devs unfortunately. I recommend using the Preview option to verify it looks the way it should before posting. Click "More Options..." and then "Preview" and it will show you how it would look upon posting so you can make sure it looks correct!
