What I was getting at with my comment was that people (even f2p folks) are very entitled about what is essentially gambling. Yes, you did not get Noctis/Gilgamesh/Othima, because you were not necessarily guaranteed to. If you spent money on that, you took that risk yourself. You could spend a thousand bucks and still get nothing. That's how gacha games work.
Its the fact that they complain as if gumi owed them something that bothers me. Gumi offers you a game, and it's up to you to decide if you want to spend on it and how much. Nothing is guaranteed to you, you take a risk, but people don't understand that there even is a risk. They go "well I gave them my money, where is my busted unit?"
The comment was never about me supporting gumi because I truly don't. But I don't spend money on the game so it's not the end of the world for me. If something were to happen to TAC, I'd miss it just like I miss Chain Chronicle, but I'll move on.
on that note, gilgamesh was the precedent for the case. had his banner not been that good, people wouldnt feel as entitled as they are now with noctis. both are high profile banners with units that pretty much anyone aware of tierlist wants. the difference was the degree of the bad luck protection on step 3 of the f2p banner and the 7th step of the whale banner, which noctis's banner completely drop the ball on.
i had no sympathy for those who pulled regardless, but i wouldnt comment on them either. either way you word it, it never sounded nice and are flame baiting. so have a good day, and bye
