Thread: Gems prices overpriced rip off.

  1. #1

    Gems prices overpriced rip off.

    Just checked the cost of gems the prices are way overpriced not to mention the prices of items or service require a lot of gems.

    Each VIP status cost around 45$, to get to VIP 12 it would cost 540 $.

    This company is way to greedy , never seen a micro transaction game has expansive has this, this game would be classed number 1 in my list most expansive micro shop.

    Honestly they are better micro transaction game out there and that wont break your wallet like a cocaine addict.

    Yup worse microtransaction game, the game will eventually shut down by next year, good luck for those blowing their wallets for a game that's not going to make it, i wouldn't be surprised if the game sponsors are some Russian Mafias.

    To be honest, it's really not that bad. I've known good players build strong accounts without spending a dime.

    Whether you open your wallet or not is down to the individual, since there is a choice complaining about the cost of buying gems is moot.

    Did you check how much the upgrades cost in term of Gems? You would blow through 5000 gems in 15 min and you still wouldn't have the major upgrade required due to the high cost of upgrades not counting its also a gamble, 1 good chip cost 100 gems that's 9$ and their only lvl 3.....
    When people realize its a nightmare grind to advance in this game without gems a large % of the new player who are trying out the game will bail out.
    Normal player who do not wish to purchase gem are not going to advance with those prices who would even bother buying them..
    I guess the server will have top 50 players , and the highest one will be the one with the fattest wallet.

    If you cannot see the cost of gems versus the price you buy items/upgrades for gems is way off the chart then either you turning a blindeye to it or you have not taken the initiative to calculate the costs.

    When i saw the price of gem and saw the price tag 500$ for only 5000 gems that raised red flags for me, and if anyone has common sense they wouldn't waste a dime on virtual items that cost more than a monthly subscriptions for typical mmo's

    The game represent the bad side of micro transaction.
    The VIP plans are ridiculous, instead of selling VIP plan in packages with fixed prices like for example VIP 1 20$, VIP 2 30$, instead the requirement is for player to purchase more gems to upgrade their VIP package what a awful system.

    You need to work on your argument. Most of your premise is unfactual.

    i myself just think that players that spend the sort of cash on a game are foolish. it is one thing to spend a few thousand dollars on a playstation but to spend that sort of money on a game that COULD close its doors tomorrow is just foolish. and no they would not have to give a refund. If most of your players that spend cash would stop and think about it before you decided to spend any cash you thought hey that player there spent only $88 and look how far they have gotten. never did you think hey why would a player spend $88 on a game the very first day and in some cases the very first hour. thats easy they are more than likely accounts set up by the site to lure you in. you can not beat an account that is loaded with unlimited gems no matter how much you try.

    the owners of the site are not doing anything wrong just praying on the need to out do others. so as long as they make one account on each server that will ALWAYS be above yours they have won because some fool will think IF I SPEND $88 I CAN CATCH THAT PLAYER AND BE THE TOP PLAYER IN THE SERVER.


    i say go for it good luck with that only a fool would think that spending hundreds of dollars on a game that has already been online once and removed then replaced about 10 years later just shows you will lose in the end. all the site has to do is close the doors change the name/site and then all the sheep can once again be lead to the paypal slaughter house.

    I think too much power can be bought with gems (if you have a lot of them). I also think gems are far too expensive for what you get.

    10 gems ~ $1 ~ 1950K coins ~ 950K credits ~ 3 to 5 Blue Medals. (Equivalencies are also nearly best case scenarios)

    So for every dollar I can get perhaps one shot at the Legendary Rune Keeper (no guarantee at a yellow or fragment), a few shots at a legendary hero with perhaps a 6-10 spirit payoff, or 1-2 stars (with the possibility of dropping stars).

    That's how I see it. Not enough payoff for what you spend. If I ever do spend anything (haven't yet), it'll be VIP1 and then nothing more. I'd like to get VIP3 for extra queues and auto-collect, but the cost doesn't match the benefit by any stretch of the imagination.

    The problem with having LOTS of gems is you can outright buy hero cards and other rare items that take others a lot of luck to pick up. So if you're basically willing to blow cash like it grows on trees, you gain a distinct advantage over others who only spend a few dollars.

    VIP12 cost MUCH more than $540.00 btw. Where did you get that math from? What people choose to do with their money of none of your business.
