Lilith games touching the lore thoughts…
I may be outta the fandom, but I still love this game - and what devs are doing is Stupid. Devs, for the love of earth, stop what you've been huffing and fix this mess.
What did rep quests ever do to you? Removing Battle Drills? Okay, fine, I guess. Maybe? I dunno.
But removing lore? Touching the lore - which you literally advertise since ever, 'cause it's an OPEN WORLD RPG gacha game? …Y'know, something that literally needs a story? What gets players hooked on the product and keeps them around? Yeah?
You do know people who don't care about lore can SKIP and get their rewards? Or just.. not bother with clan rep quests?? Right? So why, oh why pray tell, remove it??? And just - what're you doing, Lilith?
Yeah, I'm not happy with what you did to Starter Story, replacing it with Homestead ( but there's still lore in a way, so it's ok ) or the Voyage of Wonders thing.
But those I could kinda look aside - except for when you touch the damn lore AND REMOVE IT!
Also, did you not clock in that artists, theorists, lore players, fan-writers and others are like… dunno… MARKETING TEAM in a way? Sure, we ain't hired and paid like typical official marketing team, but we still do a lot of promoting. And it's effective. More than your ads!
You want that marketing & advertisement gone, devs? That's gonna lead to dropping revenue. Actually you losing a lot of money!
Ye, big spenders give revenue, but… you need numbers, big numbers, to keep the product relevant long-term or you'll end up with something like Overwatch.
Spenders will quit, too, at some point. Because they got no competition in rankings. It's already started happening! You know, what gets you revenue? Them buying all those packs 'n what-not. To stay top ranks, competitive, etc.
(Nevermind that many folks also found friends through this game, although you don't seem to care about that. Only money.)
Also, buying cosmetics from travelogues and Rosy cosmetics, which have been, in my humble opinion, getting just wayyy too expensive. ( Rosy store and cosmetics was a mistake from the start, but whatever- )
Recently poor designs too for Fable Road ( Taurus outfit- ) and not to mention the mostly bland ones from Velvet Store!
Lilith games, do you really wanna speedrun becoming Overwatch and have a dead game? ….Like your other game, Dislyte? (Even though I hear that one's still floating - unlike Overwatch. But you get it.)
Guess you don't actually want money - enshittifying your product in all directions with stupid decisions, driving off marketing (let's face it, your "ads" are shit. No one likes those bullshit ai ads.), ignoring major part of your player base (low-mid spenders, f2p. ) and their feedback… What're you doing?
If you want money, stop this stupidity. Fix your mess. Improve the product actually, and why not… make a merch-store where people can buy stuff? If you got one, promote it more & better, 'cause only contests ain't good enough. (Also, apparently, even those rewards were reduced???)
And, while at it…. Cut back on shoving ai down our throats!!!
(Being a Chinese company ain't an excuse or a pass, because I've seen some people are trying to justify stuff like these with these kinds of replies. If the devs want to, they can do quality stuff over quantity! Saying that " they can't do that, because they're a Chinese company " is a bland af excuse!)
I promise you, humans, most humans, actually like and want HUMAN-MADE stuff! Trust me on that!
Seriously, fix your mess and stop with the stupidity.
I've said my thoughts, Finch out.
