Spent exactly 9k gems so far

Currently sitting at 3295 + 2 red weapons.

Every single pull I did was using the 5 challenge and then gamble, and then immediately cashed out. I did waste 20 coins by trying to do 2 10-coin challenges that failed and then gambling the 3rd since I thought the 3rd was guaranteed to succeed, turns out that’s only for 3 straight challenges.

I will probably not be spending anymore and just get the 200 free tickets from the matching game to get my hero outfit.

Typically in the crane events in the past, I’ve spent 700 to reach the hero skin, so this one was a bit unlucky. I only hit the 900 jackpot once.

Had some friends over last night and we were playing the free MK1 on ps+ catalogue. Decided to buy all the contents because we were having such a good time. Bought it through the in game store for $30+$50, only to find out the definitive upgrade is only $12 on PlayStation store. The worse part is the ultimate pack is on sale for only $30 which includes the actual game as well as the expansions AND an additional game.

So I spent $80 and i don’t even actually own MK1. Tried to reach out to PSN and was told to go kick rocks. I know it was my mistake but still feels shitty to not have any leeway at all.

Also typically when there is a store sale there is usually an in game sale to reflect that as well, honestly feels kind of scummy of MK1 to still have it full priced in-game.

Not sure if this is usual practices but when they added the fuel pump and icee game a month ago my nephews would get the jackpot pretty often on both. Just went again today and the pump game, you can’t even add more swipes to increase prize, and at the max difficulty it was really fast/near impossible .

Icee game where we would consistently hit 50, we would now only hit 45 with zero errors. Kinda shitty of them to do that. The icee game before you already had to do a perfect run to hit 50, not it seems like it’s RNG like a claw game where it would only sometimes allow a win.
