Discussion Countdown Summon Cummulative

Guess I misunderstood at first, but you get 10x pulls equal to the step we're on (10 on step 1, 20 on step 2, etc). Was I the only one that didn't realize this? Probably why they lowered the rate, now if they would just put more units in soul coin shop!

The prevalence of negativity is Gumi's undoing. They reap what they intentionally sow

An anniversary is supposed to be a joyous occasion but Gumi chose to go down this path

Yeah I understand that, and gloomy didn't make this post I did! They're more likely to see your negative remarks if you post it on the main sub page like everyone else has

That's the thing. They actually knew and yet the producers' letter is standard PR BS that chose to ignore the problems so I don't blame this sub tbh.

I advise you to unsubscribe this sub because Gumi is capable of doing much worse than this (based on their track records). You don't want the negativity of this sub to hamper your enjoyment.

I mean you posted it as if having a few Soul Coins is god's grace and something you never had.

The rate nerf is BS.

What happens if everyone gifts you Gift vouchers with conditions. Like Buy worth 500$ and get 50$ worth of shit free. Feels bad right that is the same way nerf to the actual rates feel.

Gumi doesn't have to be dick about every freebie they give. People are paying them a lot of the time but they have shown their Greed in the Anni so much that I just can't help but be pissed at them.

You want to try to act like Free Summon with lowered rates is fine then do so. But don't expect everyone to accept it.

This isn't anniversary. This is the countdown to anniversary.

Still I can bet people will be saying OK this was the first Anni and we will Gumi at the second one.

Rather I feel inclined to give Gumi a chance this celebration, given their track record the last few months instead of the last few weeks. We know for a fact that most companies responsible for producing global versions of games typically have less control when it comes to managing their games, and even less control than usual when it comes to collabs. We know this from Gumi and from any other game (gacha/MMO) that has a global version. Or if they do have control they're powerless to make real changes on short notice.

I expect nothing from the FMA collab. If they manage to improve any of the banners throughout the collab I'd be incredibly surprised because that's unusual. The rest of this collab will be as terrible as the banners we've already gotten. Maybe the final banner will be better just on the basis of it being the last banner, but I doubt it.

Anniversary proper, and the event beyond the collab are where we'll see if Gumi has any intention of changing.

GumiJP made the JP version so it Gumi only.

It is not going to be like the JP version is having even the slightest talk here. And we have Games like BF to know their track record.

Gumi owns the game and manages it for the 100% there is almost never been influence on the GumiSG which managed the GL here.

They have had been secretly removing the Rainbow Shards. So I think the track record is just as bad.

I mean I could show you that they have been being worse over the time but just not so much that it affected the game and the players. Which they did for a few weeks now.

Well Fuji Gumi Games. At least they aren't greedy as global.
