Just wondering if GGG has ever thought about doing some kind of daily login bonus rewards. I think it would be a good incentive for those who don't come on as much to actually log in and a good reward for those of us that do play regularly.....

Daily log in bonus my ass! This is the most stupid bullshit a game can offer. No... just NOOOOOO

Dumbest idea a game can offer? I think you're pretty far off with that statement but thanks for your input, it seems like the majority of the people who have posted in here are against the idea which is quite surprising to me.

We literally have daily missions already; however, I think what the OP is talking about may be a bit closer to certain daily rewards for other games, i.e. Warframe with its potential discount in the daily login reward.

Maybe something similar on certain days (like, you played every day for a month? congrats, 10% discount on one points package) would both reward players AND encourage more money being spent on the game (if you have a 10% discount, you may buy when you otherwise wouldn't), without anyone really feeling like they're missing out. The only problem with this approach is that at least some people will feel it's essentially player bribing. I personally would not be opposed, but I don't know how a majority of the player-base would feel, and I can not pretend to speak for them.

As this person has stated I thought some kind of promotion for %off on pack points or something along this line would be a pretty good idea as it would maybe prompt someone who usually doesn't buy points to actually spend money on the game. And as the idea for %off on your next mtx purchase it could be for any MTX item in the store and sure there are daily deals which random MTX goes on sale like the Dragon armor set today but the %off would work on a single set piece like if you just wanted the face mask you could get it at a discounted price since the individual pieces aren't on sale.

daily bonuses would punish those players who can't play on a daily basis but play longer if they can. but there is no reason for it, if i play 10 hours every third day it's basically the same as if i played 3 hours per day.

this unequal treatment is the reason i didn't like it when they introduced the masters daily login bonuses, it disencourages those players with a life and work against f.e. kids who can freely play after school.

i know many players, especially european ones, who don't like to be pushed to do the things we already love:
- we support the game because we like to play it and not because there are "sales" which , at least for europeans, indicate the subject is rather worthless. try getting a porsche 40% off the shelf.

- we play the game because we like it, not because of some minor bonus for doing so.

I bet it is because almost every player has already played a game that had offered a daily log in bonus. It is just horrible, really. And VIO explained the why very well in my opinion:
