well don't participate then
Well, that isn't really an option is it? Given every man and his dog, or child with access to his parents credit card has access to manticores and Erinyes all day.
The upshot - we cant hold a siege, or avoid constant attacks from mantis. Your only hope is to keep up with, or ahead of, the Joneses..
I hate the event..point and click, point and click, point and click until my RSI is screaming - and yet, anyone can see I am playing, because if I dont - well I might as well just hand my cities over.
It is one thing to give away harpys - that is a nice reward. Manticores are very different - the whole point of them, is that they are special..and now they arent.
Next game, forget the point and click, just give me the battle token shop and let me go spend from my credit card, and lets stop pretending it is any kind of 'game'.
I respect the designers of this game..I have a long history of computer game addictions, and this is my worst by far - in a good way
I am totally and completely absorbed. For that, the writers and providers of the game should be paid well.
I therefore do not mind spending gold and making sure that happens.
These games, however..and this is only my second..seem to be designed utilising all the well known 'hooks' built into addictive gambling games. You have made something which is triggering human reward centres, thereby
creating an addictive behaviour.
PLEASE be above this - the game is good enough.
I am hooked, I am intending to stay till the end, and I will continue to spend gold to pay for my fun.
One more 'event' like this one, and that will almost certainly change.
