No Rising Tensions?

BigSwifty

Honestly, my spending on the game DECREASES in the current event-poor environment. RT kept me progressing, which kept me interested, which kept me willing to drop a few bucks here and there to the game. On two occasions going into the weekend I was just a few purples off from 400 so I dropped some money on one of the bundles that had purples in them so I could hurry up and get the mythic, and the dupes from the pack would help with crafting and so on. I haven't spent a dime since RT left and don't plan to until something comparable returns, because I don't play the game anymore. I logged on to play the last Coalition event, and went through the motions to do about half the charges on Shadows, but the rewards there are so poor I stopped after progression. The game is fun, but without reasonable rewards to shoot for it's not fun enough.

People with MTG background are unlike others; they are known to spend big. As such, $30 vip is not outlandish in the eyes of d3.

For comparison look at the MPQ's VIP. It's a lot cheaper and the game is leaner.

Boredom is setting in. I went from 1-2 hours a day to 1-2 hours a week. I need something to keep me engaged in this game.

I missed 2 daily rewards this week. I was on a several month long streak of getting 29 or 30 days out of the month. Nothing to log in for. Nothing to hold my attention and keep me around long enough to actually sign up for VIP. Need RT or equivalent back.

I even miss Across Ixalan at this point.

@Brigby we are closing the 3rd week without RT, and I believe player engagement went down considerably.

My team (top10 all time) have 3 spots open for more than 40 hours without any players joining. In the past it used to be difficult to get a 20 minute window without players joining (which add some challenge to making players swap). In the last couple months things were already way quieter than the past, but never close to this.

 I strongly believe the lack of a interesting daily contact simply made players don't play the game during the week. Most of our teams still have good participation on coalition events, but after HoR we had several players deciding to have a break.

Players are using their time on other things (probably other mobile games) some time they will completely forget about MTGPQ.

You need to replace RT for something, we can't stay without a decent daily event. We also need different coalition events, we are playing the same pool of events for more than 1 year already. If you can't add something completely new let us play the old ones. Original TOZ as coalition, in example, would be great to play again.

Please help us stay around. Otherwise nothing can stop this game from dieing.

there are many standard options that are not being considered:
A journey through history,
a world reborn,
AX, B4T 1/2, RTO and Tour de Ravnica.
If we get the above on a daily basis it may keep player engagement. But RT is the best

Want to hear something "funny"? I was one of the players that advocated a fix for RT regarding the XP issue so I didn't use unmastered cards when playing RT. I was happy to see that they fixed the XP issue in RT. This meant I could use unmastered cards again without missing out on XP. But... RT never has never run since the fix... how ironic.

honestly, I haven't played in a week. I only penend the app to see what the hullabaloo was about when everyone was talking about the 2 new PW's, and closed it again.

no games to play......

I'm in the same boat.  Log in every day for the reward and maybe play a game or 2 of TG, then forget about it.

Since it takes 10 min per match nowadays, I really have no will to play more.
