...how despicable this is???

Not only do they make us pay for increasingly expensive membership, but they are now charging 400rc, about £8, for an additional 'pass' system and, get this, an extra £4 for extra daily keys.

Do they not understand that this is why people are quitting the game en masse?

Edit:

Wanted to put in an observation. COD was the biggest nextgen console game. It had the top sales and the biggest playerbase. They continuously ignored the players and released shoddy, broken, incomplete overpriced content. Not to mention, completely tedius in places. They became stale and people started diversifying.

Along came Fortnite. The game is free, one can play and not be bothered by popups asking to buy v-bucks (ingame currency) and enjoy it completely. The mtx system is purely cosmetic and as such will never break the game. Fortnite overtook COD. They make, by one source, over 200 million dollars a month and yet continues to listen to its playerbase and bring the updates we crave.

I suck at Fortnite, yet still find it far more enjoyable than this 'thing' we once loved.

to finish the title: no they don't.

No matter how much backlash is against them or how much the community speaks out, they only listen to the money the people who pay for it give it, not the money they are potentially losing.

Did you see the video about the history of the game? It explains why they ended up adding memberships. A company needs paying members to stay in business. Plus the treasure hunter and Solomans is also a way to keep the money flowing. What makes me mad though is the updates are not really interesting anymore.

Fkn despicable!!!!
Ironmen pay 400 runecoins and only get half the rewards! I say put more rewards for ironmen!


Honestly tho, spin sales are probably decreasing now that everybody is 5,4b. This runepass shit isnt the worst thing they couldve come up with. I rather have that then them starting to sell expansions and other content like that. Atm they are only selling cosmetics and some exp junk (I havent rly looked at it since irons only see cosmetics).
400 runecoins isnt that bad anyway for so many cosmetics. If they were in Trolololomon, they would probably cost even more + you get free exp too I guess....

I dont really care about Runepass either way but its defo not the worst thing they couldve come up with. TH is much worse STRIKE FIRST!
STRIKE HARD!

They stopped adding voiced quests because it was costly, time consuming and didn't add much. Fine. They stopped adding many quests because it is low replay/value for time. Ok. They stopped adding enjoyable content because it takes time, effort and only vaguely brings them profits while TH is quantifiable. This is why they are doing poorly.
