I took some time for myself to think about the game this afternoon. When I saw the event I honestly didn't know what to think, too many events, all unlockable with kobans for bonus rewards.
The thing that bothered me most was the creation of these new events shortly after drastically reducing the league prizes. I'm speculating, "Do you want to do more events to allow players in high league positions to spend the kobans they earn?" Is an excellent idea. "Do you want to make him burn the account of the Kobans they have saved in these 3 years (since the leagues have existed)?" Bad idea.
That there were dynamics to change was evident (personally I appreciate the idea of gems and the ability to take the girls to level 750, it made the league more competitive, at least for a while.) But to force players, even older ones. , to spend to maintain their positions after all that they have earned with the game in f2p I found it a lack of respect. You send the message that the efforts made in recent years are worth nothing.
I say one last thing: I have told my guild members to ignore the PoA (both this one and the next ones) and to focus on the PoV, at least as long as there is xp among the bonus rewards. Do you lose 4 or 8 girls a month? It doesn't matter, if you like it you will find them in a few months in the Mithic Pachinko, otherwise patience, they are useless 3 stars so you will never spend gems to max them even if they had both bonuses for a week.
