Feedback on New Microtransactions
First - see the right of my post. All those squares - I buy a lot of shit.
Second - MTX that are specifically for Lightning, Fire etc -- Not a huge fan. I feel let down when I get those in the mystery boxes. Wheres one for physical? Wheres chaos? Third - Portal based on map tier - THIS IS AMAZING. Fourth - Ghost list graveyard - very cool - would like some customization of the lights however (moving them). Finally - the coin on kill effect - its nice - but adds to the already excessive clutter. |

I think that the "no duplicates" box is amazing, and puts a great floor in so people can only get so unlucky before they get what they want. I absolutely love the way that the new microtransactions are reactive under certain conditions. Super fun. The only negative feedback I have, is that the two microtransactions in the Grand Arcanist pack feel super underwhelming for a top tier supporter pack.

Would like to see less/no micros with visual cues giving gameplay advantages. I know you claim they give no gameplay advantage, but I respectfully disagree.

I liked the idea of the new supporter packs, but not the packs themselves. Since I didn't enjoy half of the contents of either pack, I didn't pick any. I always thought there was one mtx I was never going to use, or that it'd be a gimmick to use once or twice.
The mystery boxes with no duplications were nice, but, if I understood it correctly, you can still pick color variations of things you don't have. Still, better than the last mystery box :) I'd like to see more common flask effects (life, mana, quicksilver, basalt, etc), armour which interacts with max life/max es, the level of defenses. For weapons maybe some skin which interacts with accuracy, crit chance, crit multi, total phys, each ele dmg, etc. |

It's really fun to use them, really an out of the box way to have fun with these effects instead of just changing armors and etc that just keeps stacking up.
In the future I can see we having stuff such as things such as an effect that scale with how many pinnacle bosses we kill, and getting even cooler effects if its the Uber versions, or maybe atlas completion, your character delve depth, and so on! Also the Maroider is just the best thing ever, thank you! Thank you for changing the mystery box and how it works, but still getting dupes of different colors is kinda bad but way better than the issue we had before. What if once we get one copy, we can just unlock it's colors variants for points in the store? Oh yeah and could we get to pick what we get in the supporter packs? Let's say when you get one pack you get some form "tickets" to exchange for the MTX you want, and tier gives you a type of said "ticket" to get the MTX related to that tier. This way someone could get the MTX he finds really cool, and still support without having to go all the way and get stuff he's not really into. We need filtering made easily in the middle of all our MTX, for example: the Soul Stunning effect is really hard to find between all the others weapons effects. Some way to filter skins that have this cool kind of effects would be cool, because eventually we will have so many that will be hard to remember and choose. Some MTX had not descriptions of the effects they do, such as the Ring of the Black Star who only says it changes the appearance of your ring, meanwhile the Amber Flare character effect has a big description for what make its special, and both have really similar effects. It's not a big deal and some had those descriptions, other not. Last edited by Kinjim#5190 on May 20, 2022, 8:38:18 PM

Im sure its been said, the new packs are good. i have no problem with different color variations of the same item. i think compromise with those who dont like pulling the same item with different color variations would be nice. maybe separate the packs by color? and then also have the normal packs that are random colors (like they are now) for those of us who do like different colors.

I like the new supporter packs, it's nice getting cool little effects on items without having to necessarily buy the Kirac Pass and only get them on certain items.
I think the new loot boxes are nice with the "no dupes" but I would have also like to have seen some skill Mtx thrown in there as well as the other stuff. Also, seemed a bit weird to have the boxes go up in price. I'm sure it's cause you've technically added more and you can't get dupes, but the increase in price didn't seem all that worth it. |

Truth be told, it's been long time since I bought any mtx boxes, but I did buy few of these, and i think I will buy some more, this indeed is a good idea.
No p2w as always, but does give some fancy things. |

1: I'm torn on the battle pass. On the one hand, if you don't like it don't buy it. On the other, I don't like how predatory the FOMO mentality it creates can be. And the cosmetics themselves are cool and a good value. But again... kind of predatory.
2: Love the mtx that interacts with your character more. 3: The additional league supporter pack tier is good as well. 4: The new mystery box system is misleading and, to steal a term I used before, predatory. "You can't get the same item twice." But then make 5+ versions of the same item with very minor variations. Personally, for #4, it feels like GGG did this because sales were waning and tried to make them more attractive. Sadly I bet it worked. That's my feedback. |
