Best way to protest Gacha?

Is to stop playing entirely, say your good byes and play better games.

IMC does not listen anymore for a reason. It’s not because they hate you, it’s because they’ve given up on this game being big and are content in using gacha to milk the sad people who want an edge in an online game with their real life wallet.

These are observable plans and executions of what has happened and will happen in the future. We’re literally playing a FarmVille game where every step of the way the game reminds you that you can buy Coins and ease your suffering.


  1. Limit players heavily with end game farm being random low % chance
  2. Increase their daily dungeon allowance with real life money
  3. Increase their chances with real life money with Gacha gamble

  1. Limit players heavily with end game monsters being insanely deadly
  2. Offer real life money help in form of hat enchants / gem abrasives / silver anvils
  3. Offer movement speed potions / health potions / protection w/ real life money

  1. Make dungeon loot obsolete without enhancements (anvil/blessed gems gacha)
  2. Heavily limit blessed gems to one dungeon, 2 runs a day for paying customers
  3. Make transcending a year long time investment, and overpowered
  4. Offer help to players via real life money transactions w/ Gacha

  1. Make dungeons long and tedious that need healers to complete
  2. Offer instant dungeon clear vouchers for real life money
  3. Offer dungeon reset vouchers in a gacha cube

  1. Make poor game mechanics (stats / skills / gems)
  2. Fix issues very slowly and offer only 1 stat reset / no skill reset for people who have 10 characters all messed up now
  3. Offer real life money resets, because we changed the meta again

  1. Make gaining experience a grind after certain levels w/ no quests to do
  2. Offer EXP boosts for real life money
  3. Offer dungeon resets and token benefits that stack with other cash shop exp boosts

  1. Make getting silver insanely difficult
  2. Make gaining silver from monsters not scale with their difficulty / level / health
  3. Force players to do mundane grind / Necro-bot to stay afloat
  4. Offer silver in exchange for real life money, also make it Gacha
  5. Nerf dungeon silver gains because ■■■■ you player
  6. Increase taxes on vendor characters, except Clerics. ■■■■ the rest!

  1. Make attribute costs scale up exponentially
  2. Make quests give 10k silver even at the level 330 range, but make attributes cost 10m silver
  3. Make level 310 monsters drop 200 silver at best and almost 2 shot the player
  4. Give whales more stuff to buy and sell to leech what little the normal player has

The only way would have been everyone spending on consmetics instead of playing the game and spending 0 money on it… it is so obvious.

The best way to protest is to quit, and salt the earth (forums, steam reviews) behind you.

The problem with doing this is called White Knight.

If you blatantly state the truth about the situation, they will flag you to hell. Sad times, really.

Apart from that, steam negative reviews are the way to go. These 48k playerbase that quit left for a reason after all.

well… you can’t expect everyone who try this game to stay forever.
The hype was there, it gone.
I mean … Saying it like that is saying it not normal to loose player…
Also every time someting that some people don’t like happen… Those argument come back.

change it back because
-1 there a reason why you loose 90% of your peak
-2 The game will die
-3 Nobody will pay for it anyway

… The same not really constructive idee
Change happen… That you like it or not, yes there will be people who will buy those
Yes, this game is a bussiness and no it NOT FREE TO RUN this game.
Server,people for maintenance etc… those are expensif.
If they get new way to do money then just let it be !!! How is it gona affect your own gameplay ? You don’t like it ? Then don’t buy it.
Someone willl be stronger than you ? Easy peasy whitout any working ? Well it their money and if they whant to use whatever they work on for this game… They can.
There items I will never have whiout paying soo someone will alway have a bigger sword than me…
Soo you say you already max out everyting you had too like atribute and stuff etc… so you complaing about somthin thaat give like +7 statt over your stuff…

Im not trying to be a white knight… I know this game have alot of issue.
I’m just tired to see people complaing about everything that not… Perfect for them

The best way to stop this cash grab is this

Don’t buy.

that’s all but knowing how americans love to buy s,hit and support cash grabs welp is hard to do it.

so enjoy your dead game

what a shame because was a good game

Half of what the op says is way exaggerated and it doesn’t even list a huge thing: attributes. Have you even checked the learning time for an attribute if you don’t have a token?

so to stop the game from being bad you kill the game? I mean you could just tell people not to spend any cash on the game and maybe they will listen. but telling people what to play and what not to play probably wont work no matter how much of a point you have. i mean the game is already dying people are leaving of their own accord. you honestly dont need to encourage people to leave, even when people leave they stay to troll the forums and taunt the people still playing. which honestly is kinda mean spirited and seems very “Stop liking what i dont like!”.

but anyway my point is let the game run its course it will die, in the mean time let the people playing continue playing no skin of your bones. no point in making large posts about why everyone should leave if their all leaving already.

Post it on mmorpg reddit. Not Tos sub reddit

Most people hate these things, but if consumers keep spending on it… You’re going to continuously see it. Somehow even in AAA FPS CoD now, wth man.

Daily reminder that the medal exchange gears are still there and so is the silver lottery that can win you 10m in-game silver.
