I cant remember where exactly but someone posted that the china rules still apply internationally due to them being based out of china.How true that is I couldn't even begin to say but I keep seeing how people are turning this into a item grab and that is sad. People making absurd demands for compensation I understand people are pissed. Instead of trying to get something from the company to shut up till the next issue comes up why not try and help avoid the next situation before it even comes up? Maybe I'am just from a different mindset of gaming but we as players have to accept some amount of blame for this * too.We are the ones that kept feeding the system in hopes we might get one thing or another when countless other people have been saying for months this that and the other thing was rigged. We chose to ignore them and keep feeding the machine. They are a company and they have to make a profit from what is considered a free to play game. The only real thing that everyone on both side of the its rigged argument can agree on is they need to communicate with the people better and more clearly. Knowing now what everyone thinks they do about the system does it make the game any less fun for you? Did they make the game not worth supporting to make it better? Personally nothing has changed for me cause if you have come solely for the game play element no wonder you want to quit. I came to play a game and enjoy the company of my fellow group mates and in the process of that if it cost me a few extra bucks I don't care cause to me it's equal to what I would have spent setting in a bar having a few drinks with friends. The game being worth it is solely one personas opinion and that will change dramatically from person to person. I just hope this builds a better communication lines between the community and the devs alike.
Coming from someone who doesn't mind writing walls of text, or reading them, could you think about adding spaces in between paragraphs? It makes them easier to read. xP
That being said, for the most part I agree with you, albeit what oasis is doing... is annoying... it is still a business, a lot of the things that came to light were nothing new to a f2p model, many people suspected this without streams/Aristeaus doing this. - Some people are even making him out to be a martyr, they are in their 'right' to do so, but yea two wrongs don't make a right... if he signed a NDA when he agreed to his position, I can see him being in a bit of legal trouble.
Speaking of aris, apparently what got him banned, wasn't the fact that he divulged their business practices, but because he tried to blackmail them.
Either way this is a storm that isn't going away, people are going to remember this/in all likely hood leave the game... ergo I for one do not agree with how arist went about with this, I understand he felt like he wasn't being listened too, but regardless I feel he essentially went from going to mom, to dad in an attempt to get what he/others wanted. - Yes the model *s, but it is the f2p model that is at play here, it isn't just oasis, they are trying to keep 'content' for the whales, they have released certain things in time that has helped free players along (medium threads in SA/Monthly event).... but regardless paying players will ALWAYS have a leg up over free players, they are a BUSINESS, without money (no matter how greedy they are being) they can NOT sustain the servers/keep updates coming.
