3) I'm a little confused here. You say this isn't just about Nutaku making money...but then you say that the change is for them to "make a quick buck" (I disregarded the "fracturing the playerbase" bit because it's nonsensical). So it's not about them making money...it's about them making money.

Yeah, and? Calling one fanbase "spoiled" for not being accepting of worse features doesn't make you right either.

I don't blame Nutaku for not giving out freebies like candy, or holding gacha sales like they're going out of style. I have every right to blame them for making a competition out of a game that wasn't meant for it.

Apparently, this may come as a surprise to some people, but I don't buy rainbows for e-peen. I buy them to beat the odds. It's just common sense by now that spending $100 for FGs is not a good investment when you could wait for the right sale and pick the rainbow you want for half that cost.

"Just get over it" when some of us have stuck with Nutaku for a year and only now implemented a garbage mechanic is just excusing the devs' poor decision. Do veterans not have a right to complain in your world?

Keyword: not "just" about making money. Try to keep up.

The weekly sales are fine because they only affect the portion of the playerbase that actually pays. If a sale is bad, those people ignore it and wait for something better.

The TP rankings are NOT fine, because there's a distinct possibility that free AND paying players alike could get shut out amongst themselves because of the way they've prioritized their resources. Ampied the wrong girl? Rolled Water Lily instead of Peach? Leveled Calla instead of Edelweiss? Good job, you're now in tier 4 instead of tier 3 and missed out on X rewards.

(P.S. Who the fuck in this day and age still doesn't know what KanColle is?)
