I could write a response to each negative part with counter arguments... SPL has come a long way, and the progress is made on each level. The community is key here, as I mentioned several times, it's important to get new players in touch with this, HIVE and Discord. The rest is a downhill battle.
Especially for new players it's becoming better, with the new challenges and new cards that are usable. Even with only investing the 10$, one can have a lot of fun - and sure, if you want to make money, you have to invest money. What kind of game let's you make 10$ a day by spending only 100$? I think the spending-earning is quite balanced, as I recently calculated, the current ROI is still attractive, though SPS has fallen a lot again (time to buy!). And there are SO many ways to make a few DEC on the side, it's amazing. It just seems expensive if you only look at ranked battles, and not at all the other ways to make money.
And if anyone complains about low Alpha/Beta values... The buying pressure is still huge on those, due to land.
Okay, now I am contesting all the points. Dang. Anyway, thanks for the post! Interesting to see what the "negative" arguments are. In fact, they make me even more bullish about the game.
Maybe you should write a response to each negative part and that will be a post.
You're late. Already working on it 😝
Then I am early :)
Done. Took longer than expected. More words than expected. But hey, it was fun to re-assure myself on why I like this game so much. https://peakd.com/@beelzael/splinterlands-is-awful
