Hi-Rez Studios underhållande Paladins: Champions of the Realm har råkat i blåsväder efter att utvecklaren gjort förändringar som fansen inte uppskattar. I den senaste uppdateringen (som du kan läsa om här) läggs nya valutan Essence och något kallat Legendary Cards till. Det har lett till kritik om att spelet blivit mer 'pay to win'-vänligt och en Reddit-spelare kallad thecrazywizard skriver detta om saken:
"Joshino, Bubblekings, DefNotHanzo, pro players, Reddit users, Forum users, YouTube comments, TEN TON HAMMER. What do they all have in common. They all HATE the essence and rarity systems. Please understand that we are trying to help the game. We're not whining for the sake of whining. We are trying to stop you from f****** up like in your previous titles.
The essence system is a cash-grabbing, RNG, P2W, stupid system that actively makes new players leave, old players protest and potential incoming players don't even f****** bother starting up the downloader (five of my friends and my brother included, side note the five friends don't even want to try Smite because they have zero belief that a company that makes decisions like this can create a good game).
The rarity system is a b******* excuse to not balance cards, and lower the champion diversity which you want to improve so much. Why can't you just admit that you f***** up. From the stupid PrettyHair stream, to PrettyHair's fake-a** excuse and to that smurf test that "never happened cause you deleted the tweet". You dug a hole for yourselves, jumped down, kept digging and still haven't stopped. Skins, avatars, emotes, poses, cursors, global emotes, skins for even more specific bodyparts (like For Honor), sprays, special emotes (furious, dance... like Smite), music, announcers... The list of things you can do for money is near endless so why are you using important game mechanics for the cashgrab.
I can tell you 95 % that if he wasn't working with you, even f****** Raynday would be complaining. And that guy talks about release Sol with a laugh in his voice. Hear the voice of your fans, friends, cashgivers, testers, content creators, and players. Stop this before it's too late."
Klara besked alltså och många håller som synes med personen ifråga. Spelar du själv och vad tycker du om saken?
