Now that the initial backlash wave has slowed down we have the contrarians popping their heads up

Half of them are poorly disguised attempts at either ragebait or they’re a whale who wants it to happen just “not this much” so their precious f2p players don’t leave so they can continue to lord over them. My favorite is the people who are sheep, just taking everything that comes for them and just giving up.

Then they try and humiliate people for being upset as if they don’t have a say. You do have a say, even if you don’t spend anything because if there’s no f2p, there’s no high spenders who do it to surpass all of them. If there’s no high spenders, there’s no mid spenders who try to keep up by being a bit more efficient with their spending. If the game ends up gaining mass amounts of negative publicity it will affect their bottom line. And while they may not care about f2p, they care about their bottom line.

Hit it where it hurts and you’ll get a reaction.
