Every update that increases power and every new ninja increases the gap between p2w and f2p regardless of what you think. P2Ws can max the power given by the update in a shorter period of time in comparison to F2P will take a while to do so. Just because people are bored easily does not it will benefit in the long run.

He probably does understand that but the people he was referring to want stuff ASAP do not. They see flashy new updates/ninjas (minato's bond skills, madara five kage, etc.) from China regardless they know about the timeline between when it was released and how far between the updates were in China (we should be finishing off the updates/ninjas released back in 2016). It's just a discussion of what should be happening vs. what will be most likely to happen.

A clear motivation of "money first" would be if China plans to introduce a new permanent treasure then we get it a couple months after. There's no good reason (without disrupting the game environment) why one server release a new treasure if another server had the latest one for almost two years while the former had it for much little time than the latter? If you started on China back then, you would have gotten a SR regardless you spend or not and some f2ps most likely even have both already.

I'm not saying every update. I'm saying updates that gives out power and new ninjas, who do you think will be able to max it out first or more likely get the ninja first, people who are going to spend or saved for months. Some updates don't make the gap between players and some do. based on your list, some don't increase power. For new clothing, not all people will get it once it comes out but people who do can spend or have saved up (but by doing so they have to give up something else).

If you still don't understand, I'll give you an example. Let's say one week we get we can a wandering merchant where we can get event ninja frags. A f2p would see this as an opportunity to piece event ninja like masked man, shisui, edo deidara, etc. so you use your coupons. The p2w will do the same. Since the f2p has spent their coupons, they will have less to use the next time they see something interesting. Since you want updates come quick, then let's say the bond system comes the week after or two weeks. If the p2w see's value in it, especially if he has the necessary ninjas to make a bond skill happen, he be more likely to fini* faster than you and since you spent your coupons before, it going to take a while for you to see value in the bond system. Too fast release updates, you will fall behind much quicker.

There's a difference between holding back content vs. releasing content to earlier. Updates like ultimate training should have been here while updates that were released a month ago in China shouldn't be released in other updates have. I'm for getting updates that we should have gotten and following a schedule is because I am able to plan out how to use my coupons effectively. If they were to release the bond system (released in Spring 2017), give us kakashi susanoo, then scroll system (released in 2016), give us madara five kage, then update that gives out power via crystal-like material (a very recent update)., it's going to hard to figure out what is coming and spend what I want. I want to be able to adjust to an update that give power/ninja since most f2ps aren't likely to get the ninja or max out an update within a short period of time.

What will happen if you want updates to released back to back in order for Oasis to match exactly like China, it will end up with the event cycle with the event we normally see since this does happen in China. I don't know if people aren't used to this but recycling events happens in a lot of games there are produced in Asia (excluding the major ones) so don't expect updates to be released based your expectations.

You should probably wait until he pops up in the next event that he can be brought. Not very smart of you to spend on him when #1 he doesn't cost that much, #2 you need to land on him multiple times to 3* him and #3 it isn't guaranteed.
