Timers... So many timers.
yarnfang
Always timers.

By timers do you mean that you do some things in the game, and to do them again you have to either wait a certain amount of time, or you can just pay some secondary currency?
yarnfang
Jupp.
yarnfang
Also no direct presages, instead you buy currency that you spend
PegPeregoGaucho
that ruins the point of the game lol
yarnfang
Because ofcourse
yarnfang
EA don't give a fuck.
yarnfang
They're just trying to find how far they can go
yarnfang
And then plan to milk it
PegPeregoGaucho
they already went too far ^^

"Asterix and Friends" has that for crafting items (you can wait for an item to be crafted and not pay any helmets, or you can pay some helmets to instantly finish the crafting process)
PegPeregoGaucho
thats super common in these games
yarnfang
It's pretty basic.
PegPeregoGaucho
spend money to do things faster
PegPeregoGaucho
yeah
yarnfang
Idea being that early on you get things somewhat fast to build investment. And then when you're invested there's a smaller chance you'll leave and then they gradually increase the pressure to get you to open your wallet up.
yarnfang
:/

I mean, it's hella smart. But fuck off abusing it xD
