About diamonds, ads and premium version

[rare_metal]

Since TT become business project (for making money, not for fun) strange things are added. Not good or bad, but strange. Yes, i'm about diamonds! IMHO diamonds are useless, at all. I will explain it below. And now about other things.

There are 3 ways how devs can make money.
First is premium version. It's simple, so move on.
Second is ads. And devs are using it wrong. Ads must be shown to every "free" gamers and must not be annoying. But there is "don't show ads" setting. It's good for gamers and bad for devs. What should be done is to remove this setting and show ads in main menu only (maybe in paused game too). "Watch ads to get some theons"-feature is really good, both for devs and gamers. "Watch ads to get some fast speed"-feature is NOT good for gamers and not bad for devs. It's not neutral but bad for both. Because that ads are annoying. Every gamer wants to use fast speed and not to watch ads, so compromise is not to use fast speed. That's weird but it is. Not every "free" gamer has fast internet, so they really don't want watch video-ads. What should be done is to make fast speed free and add "watch ads to get some ULTRA-fast speed"-feature.
Third thing is IAP. Building packages are nice and useful. "Get 100k theons for real money"-feature is good. "Uncock rank for real money"-fueture is not good. What should be done is add "unlock" button into rank info window. Because gamers want to see what they will get with next rank. If they want to unlock they will. Somehow.

So why diamonds are useless? In other games gamers BUY diamonds (or crystalls or something else) for real money to get in-game features. In TT gamers collect FREE diamons to BUY premium version. That is really stupid. Every gamer able to get premium version for free someday. And who will watch ads?..

Most games that have diamonds, crystals, and the like also give you some free every day, but have the option to buy more. (Because you always seem to need more than you have to get something that you want with them).

In my opinion TheoTown becomes one of that typical annoying games on google play store where you always have to pay a little amount just for playing the game regulary...

I dont want to buy diamonds or to watch ads just to be able to use fast speed mode... sometimes you build things in TheoTown and then you just have to wait how things develop. That's why it is sometimes necessary to let it run on high speed for a longer time. Forcing the player to pay for standards like that destroys the fun of playing the game.

I would prefer a premium version in which you pay one time for buying the game and then you just can play without any further trouble...

Of course, this is my personal opinion.

[Ahmad Nur Aizat]

And mine too

Maybe mine too...

At least it isn't Clash of Clans Smurf village. Buildings build instantly that's another good thing, you aren't forced. They need money to keep developing.

What's clash of clans Smurf village ??
Or is it clash of clans , Smurf village

[Ahmad Nur Aizat]

What's clash of clans Smurf village ?? :shock:
Or is it clash of clans , Smurf village

None of the above but, you get the point if you see the gameplay...

[Ahmad Nur Aizat]

Exactly. Like SimCity BuildIt. Tap, wait few hours, tap, wait few days, tap, wait few weeks, tap on building, wait some more weeks, tap on new building, wait more and more. Sadly, they have best rating in PlayStore for some reason.

That's why I love TT more, those games were old and trash. Only noobs play them

You just called whole America and half of the world noobs. *cries happily* that's the evilest thing I can imagine

Wait WHAT!? X.D

[Ahmad Nur Aizat]

No, the most evil thing is saying that everyone on the world is a noob. Waiting for someone to be evil and say that.

Everyone in the world is (normal/diamond/noob/idk)
