    This is a mad grind. You would have to play every single day just to reach the daily max total you could earn each month.
    Now you're getting it.

    This new system isn't for every player. It's for those who do log in and play everyday, and this is a reward system allowing them to select an item or two, and work toward them as a goal.

    It's a means to an end, as the cycle will repeat itself once new crates come in.

    Of course, those who "designed" this insulting system are still banking on the dedicated players' impatience as they rush to gamble their money away, but you can bet they're watching closely. If this new system begins to show any sign of decresing revenue, you can bet the daily amount will be dropped (I'd guess down to 40 per day).

    I have never seen a company go of its ways to generate revenue like this. Rather than open up an actual store, offer everything ever released as a direct purchase item, this company forces its players to grind or gamble to acquire the items.

    Baffling. Absolutely baffling.

    As for me, I'm ignoring the new system (as best I can since the game now onscreen annoys me with my "earnings" while refusing an option for me to disable it). I have no desire to partake in a clearly insulting design as some sort of "compromise" to those who can't or won't gamble their money away for an imaginary pet.

    I'm not a dog. I'm supposed to be a customer, but clearly someone lost the memo.

    This was my process:
    - Oh yes, endeavours are such a great idea. I can't wait for them to come out!

    Endeavours go live. Check the prices and how many seals you can get per week.
    - Yeah, you know what... I wasn't even THAT excited really... :|

    like is this MMO 101?

    every announcement lately gets me really excited!
    i put my OTHER games down and come back and play...

    AND BANG = no, the companions cant do this and cant do this.
    then the endeavors = the prices are crazyyyyyyyyyyyy

    then im like, i'll give it a chance, then...after doing 3? its like, "thanks, come back tomorrow to earn 50 of the 7000 coins you need for a reward."

    ahahhahhaaha
    "The red pill and its opposite, the blue pill, are a popular cultural meme, a metaphor representing the choice between:

    Knowledge, freedom, uncertainty and the brutal truths of reality (red pill)
    Security, happiness, beauty, and the blissful ignorance of illusion (blue pill)"

    Insight to Agree to Awesome Ratio = 1:6.04:2.76 as of 1/25/2019

    Compared to people that I've ignored = I am 18% more insightful, 20% less agreeable, and 88% more awesome.
