User blog:UnRaging Tsu/Figuring Out Why Does Zynga Do Stuffs We Probably Hate

After getting back on game, and of course on wiki, i kind of having one impression in mind: Zynga 'hates' us and we 'hate' zynga too.

I found that a lot of people are complaining for the hard events and 'money-hungry, greedy bastard' zynga. Also that lots of free players are quitting the game due to 'zynga won't let us get good cards' problem.

Well, let me share my thoughts here.

The minimum ratio of free players and cash players in a game is 20:80 out of 100. Usually you'd need to pay a lot for a good deal of card, yet we all still have a life to live - so maybe that's the main reason for free players not to pay anything. AGG is only a game too, so no wonder people hate buying stuffs.

But hey, lookie lookie. I've been playing AGG since a year ago, and to be honest, i'm really happy playing this game because it has no ads. Just like almost all card games out there, AGG is fun to play because it has no ads (unlike the super free casual games - ad banners everywhere.) AGG doesn't even have any pop-up ads. Everyone should try playing games like Rage of Bahamut, lol. Once i found a pop-up adv before hitting the home button. And it's a free card game too - just like AGG. (Am i the only one who found the pop up adv?)

And then this game is free to download and play. Zynga doesn't ask you to pay the game just to get a few 3 star cards and lots of 1-2 stars. Zynga only asks us to pay for some real great cards. Except litchi princess.

And there's this 30 day rs. Before it appeared, we'd need to pay 9000 gold coins (approximately $99.9 / i don't know for sure) to get 30 cards from rare summon. I know that mostly the cards we can get is shitty 3*, but you still can get at least 3-4 good cards from the 30 cards you get! I had a week full of good luck during the 30 day summon.

Although if you're a mild casher / whale, 4* are pretty useless too... Don't judge :P

Overall, i understand why did zynga make the last event tower - TATOI - impossible for us without using any items. They need some serious amount of money to develop the game, and after all the sacrifice (lol) they made, there's no question that their income is decreasing. How in the world do they develop the game to be better if there's no fund to it? Therefore, the reason to say Zynga is SUPER greedy is to no avail.

Well yeah, go play RoB to know what does a real greedy developer looks like. Can't believe i survived playing that game without spending a cent. My guildmate (they call guild as Order) spends $200 per event, and that's considered cheap. Hell.

But it doesn't mean i'm defending Zynga - i only gave reasons for free players to stop complaining.

I also think Zynga is kind of greedy, but not that much. I never use my money to buy stuffs in game - only once, just to buy the 30 day rs + 2 sw. 2000 gold coins in total.

I'm considered a free player too. I survived sealstones battles, soul gems, and events only using dedication. Oh, i do love this game. I dedicate almost 3/4 of my sleeping time to play. I even let myself play before going to school, while i'm supposed to get ready. Or when dinner, where i usually starve to death.

So, my point is, there's no need to rant about the goddamn game system. I love EG and would be reaaaally happy if Zynga decides to put back EG, but what can we say? Zynga knows EG doesn't give that much of profit (and we know it too - that's why we love it lol) unless if whales decided to buy lots of SW to get the top daemon in the count of hours. Maybe they'll put back EG in april or June, but who knows?

There's no need to hate - just enjoy playing the game! Games are supposed to be stress reliever, not the source of stress itself.

Happy playing! X3
