User blog:FyiL/Zynga Haters

So this is something that I've been thinking of for a while. The people who seem to enjoy bashing on Zdog for whatever reasons they could find (ie. 'ugly' art, reducer skill, etc.) To be honest, I don't ever remember getting even slightly annoyed at Zynga. I'll try to show y'all my point of view over this matter. And please, I am in no way trying to start an argument with anybody, I'm just a normal samaritan expressing my opinion here :-)

I think what I'm going to type is directed more towards those free players/very light cashers, as I believe that it's understandable for the heavy-ish cashers to complain over bugs, since they are technically paying for this game.

First thing's first. I'm grateful that they even made this game. Before even thinking of getting pissed at them, I think we should take a moment and remember this. I find it difficult to find anyone making a game with such complicated coding/time consuming art/time consuming story making for free. Zynga's a company. A company's goal is to make money, not to 'create entertainment out of the goodness of its heart'. Plus, it would be quite unfair to the cashers who are doing us a service by keeping this game alive to favor the free players as much as GMT apparently does. So, in my eyes, complaining over how this game is not free player friendly is a little... dumb :p

Next thing is when people complain over a skill. Seriously. If all skills were op increasers or all daemon decreasers, this game would've been super duper boring for me. Variety is what improves a gameplay experience and asking for less reducers is honestly asking the game to be more monotone (in my eyes :>)

And the art. I've lost count on how much hate some of the arts are getting and all I have to say is to go ahead, gather your friends/surroundings, and boom. create 10 detailed, appropriate, and anime-like characters with backgrounds and such in a week. Besides, I think having some 'bad' art makes the game more interesting :-)

Now, the bugs. I think the cashers have the right to get mad over a bug that may completely ruing their event experience because they payed the company to do it right, etc. However, when free players rage at Zynga over a bug, in my eyes, it's the same as telling a dancer to entertain you for free, but when he accidently trips, you get pissed and yell at him. For example, the Mira bug caused a lot more controversy than I think it should have. Or, for example, the recent 7 days shrine bug, where I had a free player guildmate completely lose it.

And finally, the events. I agree that everyone has their own preferences and it is completely normal. But when people get mad that x event is going on or are saying that y event should get removed and that it sucks and that it should burn in hell (I am not exaggerating, I have literally seen people say some pretty extreme insults), I think there's something not quite right.

Ss event: lower levels wanted 5*? There you go. To all of of those high leveled people who get unreasonably annoyed when an ss event is going on or who say that ss should get removed, you are basically saying that low leveled people should lose their perfect event for chance of an easy 5*.

Tower: ok I know it used to be a safe heaven for free players and that Zynga buffed it (and I think that the frustration from that buff is understandable). In my free player eyes though, it's nothing more than a challenge. A fun one. Besides, SWGs are perfect for those cashers.

Cq: well most people like them, so...

SG: seriously. Free items and a break (for a good majority of the people) Why would you not like that. If you wanna farm, go to the lower chapters. You won't run into that many gems.

GCQ: again, I don't see many people bashing on this event either, so... Besides, guild cq brings people around the world playing this game closer and I myself have made a bunch of friends thanks to this event, so I like it ^^ :p

Please don't take this blog the wrong way. I am, in no way, trying to offend anybody here or to create a conflict >< I'm simply trying to perhaps make others understand my point of view and to make some people see some of the elements of the game that they don't like in a more positive light :3

Thanks for reading,

Fy
