RE: Was It Worth My Time? Why I Quit Playing Rabona

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Thank you for this mindful article, which touches some interesting points.
ich regard to the commentary - this is mainly indeed a time problem. The backend does already calculate about 200 actions per game - so I would "just" need to take the effort to get it out. I was not sure how important players would take this over other things. Maybe I have to make up my mind on this.

With regard to the pay2win characteristics: At the moment it is indeed possible to freeze players over the end of the season and thus avoid the skill changes. This is something that will be addressed later. Also, the whole payment system is likely to be adapted over time.

Lastly, with regard to the league system - it is very critical to switch from four leagues per level to two. I know its tough to get up again, but at least you do not have to appreciate 6 league to come to the top.

Best regards, Tim

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, it's really cool to see both Oli and you come here and reply to my post!

Keep in mind that I can only speak for myself on these points. For all we know, I might be the only one missing the commentary as bad as I do. Maybe do a poll in the community to see how important it is to the rest.

I really like the reverse NFT auction you are doing, this could be a cool way to generate additional income for the game without being a too obvious form of Pay2Win. Maybe you could do something similar for stadium NFTs, auctioning out historic/current stadiums that come with minor bonuses to the game?

Keep it up guys!

Oh, come on. Printing 100 OS/100 TP players off thin air is the second most obvious p2w mechanics I could think of. Number one is auctioning a win in the next match.

I mean the mechanics itself is great as it adresses two major issues (low player liquidity at the top and high RBN inflation) at once. But releasing 100 OS/100 TP players is a poor judgement when the (non-GK) superstars are at 85-90 OS with various TPs.

I am going to profit from it as it actually does not generate income for the game. That's an excuse. Longterm, the message is awful.

Oh, wasn't aware that they are that good.

My rationale was that is was only a single player that's also going to grow old eventually.

I see. They are going to be released one by one, the auction surely takes a while and they might be kept frozen anyway. They would have been 100 % frozen if their skills met the skills of the Season 1 LoC winning team (which is a much better lore btw).

...and they might be kept frozen anyway.

That is the thesis.
If that doesn't happen, we won't do any more auctions and it was a one-time fun thing.

Definitely agree with that. Plus...

All proceeds from the auctions will remain in the Bank of Rabona (BoR) account. The balance of the BoR will be in the control of BoR shareholders. It is also possible that part of the balance will be burned before we release the BoR module.
