Anyone could get it, as you were rewarded medals for 3rd, 2nd, and 1st) Girls were handed out like candy due to the amount of increased rate gachas they had, so no guild had an advantage over another in that respect; and even limited girls wouldn't make a guild broken. Pvp stamina was refilled with farmed currency or running regular dungeons; so the only advantage whales had was refilling reg stamina and running dungeons to increase their guild buff (Which if you take the buff too high; you become a bigger target to the other three guilds.) That was the beauty of their system, it was exceptionally hard to whale to a significant advantage. Their were still people who are able to P2W, but they do so for an extremely paltry reward in comparison to say...a ranking event. Which there weren't any.
Great, so its just some good ol' fashioned money grubbing then. I get the need to actually make a profit and keep the game running, but monetizing basic features that were free on DMM is just scummy. I can only hope all the negative feed back they're getting means we won't see more of it in the future, but I'm worried its going to ruin the game before its even out.

Its just such a shame, the more I hear about the game itself the more I like it. The ranking events is what made me quit Osawari in the first place, so hearing they're not in here is great. Too bad about how its being handled. I guess I'll just wait until release and see what they do with the gachas. If they don't change the draw rates and don't overprice the specials from DMM I can stick with it. For reference I won't touch the step-up gachas on FKG but I'll do some of the cheaper specials.

Thanks for explaining how it all worked on DMM. I'm pretty bummed out by this, but I figure you're even more disappointed since you spent time on the JP version.
