its just bait atp
What do you guys want out of stocksounds
Okay, they deleted a character with items that could no longer be obtained through normal gameplay. Your point?
The fact that they chose to sell the item that they couldn’t acquire anymore.
A reward trophy isnt meant to give compensation of equal or greater value
idk how much of a flex 30 green coins is other than saying you no lifed wom
True, that was a fumble, but the problem isn’t that it wasn’t compensated initially, it’s that now that it’s even slightly following up on that promise, people are upset because they already threw it out like junk on their own behalf.
Yup, it’s not like somebody will quit their main account and create a new one, just because they want to keep a rare tier old boot with the cost of 75 galleons.
Ofc, there always are people who never re-created their character or was lucky enough to leave all of their boss drops on their alt account. But I am sure, that those people barely are 25-40% of the 4-gen playerbase.
What is this kind of circle argument holy shit
Well id still say thats a problem but atp i had already given up on that so fair enough, lets just ignore that
Because it feels like a second “fuck you” moment for doing what the devs wanted you to do originally
Hello why did the topic die
I still dont get why you guys are angry (it’s an unobtainable item being sold at such a shitty price, which you guys took [to sell at such price] which is absolute BONKERS)
The trophy analogy once again. When you get a medal in sports, do they tell you “your goal is to sell this painted plastic trinket for as much money as possible”? They don’t, because you’re meant to just have it.
They needed to buy caravels and ketches instantly
They chose to sell the item, they chose to delete the item, or the character with the items, nobody forced them to do so.
I just don’t see how they’re the victim just because they got rid of unobtainable items that would later become tradeable.
Thats the thing, the original goal of this medal was, for most people at least, to use it to get a headstart in ao. Its not getting the medal and then being told that, its being told that and getting the medal for exactly that reason. I dont think many people really liked grinding bosses for the sake of it. Like i said before, the compensation was meant to be of equal or great value, obviously refering to gameplay and not emotional value. If it was meant to be emotional value compensation than just keeping the boss drops as untradeable vanity wouldve done just fine
I genuinely question your intelligence, not only because you ignored my previous point about vetex and tech literally wanting you to do that but also because you keep repeating the same argument over and over again. Its not about having the choice, its about having the choice between one option that gives infinitely more gameplay value in every way the devs told you, and another option thats literally only about emotional attachment to a fucking coin
Then I’d chalk it up to misconception. Sure, the reward could’ve been better, but that doesn’t make it a cash headstart.
I mean come on, your idea of a headstart is 75 galleons that you can only get by owning a boss drop?
Because thats literally all you could use them for at that point??? Barely anybody would care about a coin that you not only cant flex, but also cant trade or wear. Either way, it still is a cash headstart. When ao just released we were struggling to upgrade sunkens and get caravels and ketches, something which magius relics were literally made to help with. Also how is it a misconception when vetex and tech literally stated them to be of equal or great value, what else could they have meant?
There’s nothing left for me here. We’ve both said the same thing five times.
“they got rid of unobtainable items that would later become tradeable”
Bro, no way somebody will argue with you. You didn’t even try to understand what happened, lol.
Yk, like… nobody said back then that they are going to be tradeable. Understand? The thing that just happened is a non-planned event, it was never supposed to turn out this way.
I just dont understand how you would argue against what tech and vetex said, theyre quite literally the developers of ao. If they said they would wipe all acris then wouldnt you make preparations to handle such a situation? And if they then go back on their word, wouldnt you be mad you did such preparations? Its more an issue of trust being broken twice than anything else
Because I’m not arguing against it, you’re putting words into my mouth.
I’ve said nothing to imply that I think it’s of equal value to what was advertised. And now that it finally is much more valuable, you’re mad because you don’t have it anymore.
They did say that, and I didn’t sell my acrimonies. Look where it got me, still having all of them.
