PenniesForEveryone said: TPF Alexis said: Also, I just want to say that the OP really doesn't make a good argument to support the title. Even if everything in that first post is taken as fact, there's so much more to these forums than just player feedback to Demiurge. We get details of new characters here, previews of upcoming events (if not always in time, but mostly), and, perhaps most importantly, they're a fantastic resource for newer players to come get advice about how to progress in the game. There's still plenty of usefulness here in general, even if perhaps not for the OP's specific purposes. A forum is a place for open discussion where ideas can be exchanged - that isn't what we have here. Here we have a toxic community that actively works against the best interest of the playerbase as a whole with any pointed discourse being suppressed for fear of hurting the toxic snowflakes.The rest of the info that is available is helpful for sure, but it's all announcements and info that typically exists in game, and would usually be better off without the comments from the peanut gallery. There are other more healthy alternatives for that info than this forum.

Brigby said: Just as an FYI for those who are wondering why the OP is banned. It's NOT because they wished for the forum to be ended. It turns out PenniesForEveryone was actually an alternate account for a previously banned account. Since alternate accounts are not allowed except for ban refutes, this resulted in their immediate and permanent ban.
DrSesam said: I basically agree with the original poster after having a quick look around these forums for some days. There are useful topics and chilled members to be found but not necessarily here in general discussion. This is more like a sathering (sad gathering) of old men, people who got old together with the game, play in 5-star-oph (old-people-home) and have nothing more to look forward to than to whine and moan about everything new. Dillution of fours! Whine whine! Saving covers! Whine whine! Gambit! Whine! Supports! Whine! Nobody ever listens to me! Whine! I think they can't accept the fact that the game after over 1000 hours of entertainment hasn't anything more to offer to them apart from competing in the always same Gambit-ghettos. This was meant to be a journey where starting with 1 stars and gradually but slowly getting a better roster was the fun way to go at it and not to save up 300 covers so you can champ any new 5 star within mere seconds. Where's the fun about that? Who goes on playing "The Witcher 3" after he has done all the missions? It's the sad truth that every game get's boring after 100 hours and even quicker so the more money you poured into it, levelling up with bought gold. There even are some 5-star players who admit that they would love it when some 4-star players with a champed Gambit in their "baby-tiny-kitty roster" would quit the game. This is old-people-talk from king's who lost their kingdom. I think it's time for THEM to quit and start something fresh and new in oder to get rejuvinated or else you will just get very bitter and your next of kin won't visit you any longer in lonely old 5 star land...

Daiches said: Oh look wins based pvp is back in the form of the most suggested fix on these forums by both sides of the argument. Perfect timing with this thread, D3. Excellent trolling of Pennies.
broll said:Ive come this close to posting something similar at least 4 times over the last 2 months. I even have a draft saved. At this point the only reason I still come here is the falicy of sunk costs and because it’s easier for an old fart like me to keep up with vs Discord and it’s constant stream of consciousness and sometimes multiple conversations at once.

Excellent trolling of Pennies. To be honest I credit Discord far more than the forums. Late into the wins based season a dev asked what was so wrong with Wins based and people said all the things that had been on the forums for months and it seemed like news to them...

Late into the wins based season a dev asked what was so wrong with Wins based and people said all the things that had been on the forums for months and it seemed like news to them... Ehh, Based on the last few course corrections that we've done with player based concerns, I'd actually toss the ball more towards the forums than Discord or LINE. It's much easier and feels more *real* for all the stakeholders to click a few links and *see* user posts about an issue. Compare that to Discord or LINE where it's usually "People were saying this but I don't remember the exact wording to do a search and find the exact quotes". And things like Hadronics charts stick out and feel more permanent than randomly being linked in Discord and LINE. Even pinning those images isn't great there, since they're very much out of sight out of mind there.That being said, the "real-time" communications mediums tend to have a stronger effect simply because it's easy to get quick replies going. A back and forth that requires 3-4 replies takes hours on the forums whereas on Discord it'd be 5 minutes.
