Rebellion Power Creep
So the next card expansion is set to release around 6 months from now already and it will make no sense for players to get into it after they got totally crushed on Chaos Legion.
THIS. I think I lost like thousands of dollars on CHAOS Legion cards and packs. I'm still salty about them increasing supply by discounting CHAOS packs in a Christmas sale and crushing pre-existing CHAOS packs and cards value.
Yeah, to me it's the biggest narrative is Splinterlands right now but not that many are talking about it. The fact that devs need so much revenue and they can pretty much do what they want to get it just sucks on an ecosystem where there is supposed to be a community vote.
It's also just not realistic for players to expect profit on their cards from buying packs at least in the short run. The way things have come down though is pretty brutal and I'm quite sure that many that got in will go 'fuck this shit' one rebellion releases causing them to sell way fewer packs.
We'll see how it all plays out, probably some more pain ahead first before things get better.
