It's not a very important part of the game, but ok. I dislike the roulette system, I think it's poorly weighted and presented in a bad way. However, the game provides a better chance at better tickets by collector level; playing more means a higher probability. Over time, playing more means more chances at better stuff from roulettes. That's not a defense of the system, that's a fact. I'm not misinformed.
Just because you want to cheese and grind the game as fast as possible by VGTing everywhere doesn't mean it taking longer is all that bad. I'd prefer there to be a more organic way to get these parts but let's not act like it's gamebreaking or like it's ruining everything.
Where did I say it's ruining or gamebreaking?
Go re-read my post. I said it was just one more thing disappointing me.
It's not just this, in fact, if it was just this bs, this game would've been great. But it's the combination of all these small details that make the game a horrible experience.
And whenever did I say I want to VGT everything? I posted that in another thread to show which event was the one that gave the most credits per time and this time to prove to you that little effort should not be so easily rewarded.
And again we have this advocate of "it's not that bad to grind longer"... Yeah, it's just hundreds of hours. Maybe for the 1% of players (like you I assume?) who are casual and/or have all the time to play it and/or only play one game, it may not be as bad, but how about everyone else?
Grinding isn't bad.
Grinding for overagerated and borderline sickening time periods is bad, and it's even worse when the main reason the game is designed like this is all due to microtransaction profit.
And please, don't try to defend this. There is none.
PS: What's with all these new accounts with less than 10 posts suddenly logging in this forum and trying to damage control this madness?
EDIT: Collector level is capped at level 50. Which is not that hard to reach, so yes, after this point, it doesn't matter how longer you play. So yes, you are misinformed.
