Game is still F2P no matter what people feel, and it's been pay to win always since I began playing in 2018. I would say it's much easier and less pay today than back then.
Most of your points aren't as bad as you make them out to be in my opinion.
- Contests have always been hard to get high places in without paying Kobans. But it's a side thing, nothing major and no big change.
- Legendary contests have also always been hard because people pay kobans to boost there score. No change there just because of this change.
- PoA is a fair argument, I can agree on that. But that is only based on how the PoAs have been in the past, and no PoA have been identical to the prevoius, so we just have to wait and see how they change it.
- Kisses resets 1 per hour, not 45 min, so you get 10 hours before it maxes out, not 7.30. 10 hours is fair reset in my opinion, even if you work you should have a break or so where you can decrese it.
- You complain about 7.30 hour full reset but say you farm the arena with a 30 min reset? Doesn't make sense, and it has always been a bad farming method.
- The weekly rewards from Leaderboard was really low, just 20-30 koban and few other low value resources. And also dominated by P2W players. Im glad it's gone.
I can agree with you that only real money payment is bad and they should have it for Koban, maybe around 500-800 on Nutaku, but it would still cost, like everything else in the game.
PoA, Legendary Contest, even Classic events have always cost koban to "complete fully", and always more koban than you can get for free, so no event has pretty much ever been free.
It's a new system, some tweeking need to be done, but I feel like it isn't as bad as people make it out to be.
