Slight rant (4 AM post, bear with me 🙏)
I’ve been seeing a lot of posts here complaining about the devs being greedy, and I just can’t sympathize.
I literally just set my alarm, claim my fish/food, watch an ad or two, and close the game, and I have yet to miss an event’s final rewards. I do this probably around 7 times a day. People are like “ah the devs are greedy because they want people to buy things” but like, developing apps is their job? Imagine if you were at work and people started review bombing you because they didn’t like that you were selling something (actually happened to my wife once when she worked at DSG).
Sure, they made the second run of events harder, but that makes sense because the people who want to pay can get more items, and the people who don’t can still finish. I’ve seen people with like 3-5 bouquets and that’s fine, but complaining about only having 1 bouquet? My friend, you get a free egg every 7 days (or less if you watch ads)! You can finish an entire dragon in less than a month rather than spending around 1600 gems to lay the eggs! Please be patient with the devs and don’t review bomb the game simply because you feel like they’re being greedy.
If you think these devs are greedy, I IMPLORE you to look at 90% of games nowadays. Ubisoft? Pure greed. Epic games? Pure greed. Bungie? Oh good God, the kind of greed they talk about in the Bible. Steam? Nah they get a pass because steam isn’t actually as greedy (but still slightly greedy).
I have played enough games to know what greed looks like and this is not greed. If you want to see a greedy mobile game, check out raid or clash royale or one of the thousands of gacha games.
My point is, if you don’t have the patience to wait, spend money. If you don’t have the money to spend be patient! I like this game, and the devs design cute dragons. The main reason I play this game is because it makes my wife happy to name the dragons that I get. If you like the game, great! If you don’t, that fine, but don’t go review bombing the devs!
Anyways that’s all folks. Sorry for the rant. Feel free to post your own opinions in the replies, I may get flamed for this but it’s my opinion 😭
Tl;dr: the devs aren’t greedy, please treat them kindly
P.S. I am not a dev just a concerned citizen whose wife likes the cute dragons. Her favorite she has named is probably Fungy Bungy (my spotted moon cap for reference). My favorite she has named is Gütenberg (scruffhorn).
Edit: before people try to flame me for something like being unemployed or having a lot of time, I am a college student and I have a full time job. I have a “drink water” alarm that I set to go grab water, and it just so happens to be 90 minutes long, which isn’t to correlate with events or anything, I just happen to get thirsty almost exactly every 90-ish minutes……
