bought some tabs, and a Currency Tab - feedback
the game exists because of those tabs. They could remove them and shut down the game or they can keep them as they are and we can continue to play, basically.
Its a time saving advantage, it saves a lot of time vs making alt accounts and mules. I dont think its a big deal. Things cost money, individual leagues cost GGG over a million dollars to create, that has to come from somewhere. If the idea that things cost money is unacceptable to people then I suggest stop voting for capitalist political parties and when the majority of people on the planet join you we can move over to some other form of system where a company like GGG can make computer games without needing to pay their staff, their rents, their heating bills etc through revenue. Until then we have stash tabs. As players it works out better for us than any other viable option seeing as we need a lot of players playing, its a community game, why make an issue out of it and shoot ourselves in the foot? I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)

Currency and at least one premium tab are absolutely vital nowadays.

" Eh I think that's pretty tenuous. Yes, tabs do give some degree of advantage, but to say that they're "pay to win" might be a bit overboard. I mean, a noob who buys a bunch of tabs doesn't "win". In fact, new players won't really get any advantage from additional tabs for a long time. I'm not disagreeing with the claim that tabs provide an advantage, but I'm not sure that it's inconsistent with GGG's official stance as per their advertisements. I mean think of it this way, if you get "free movie tickets" to go see a movie in a theatre, the fact is that the vast majority of people are going to buy something -- popcorn, a drink, candy, something. But you wouldn't dispute that the tickets are free, or accuse the theatre of false advertising, would you?

Do the ones buying consumables in the theatre get to see the movie earlier than you, or do they get 3d glasses and you don't?
I'm a forum warrior, i was born to post, raised to defend my league. Now my post has been removed, chained and exiled by mods who Ban. Ban is my brother; i do not fear it. I see it in the eyes of men and beasts that i troll. It will take me to play the actual game when i am ready and i am not ready.

I'm fine with either one, assuming of course that it isn't one of the 3d methods that is impossible (or painful/disorienting) to watch without the glasses. The free ticket (free game) doesn't say "You get to sit in the best seat and see the movie in all of its perfect glory".
Clearly either one of us could make slippery slope or straw man arguments out of it. But really, at this point, it's an opinion. What, precisely, does "The game is completely free and will never be "pay to win"." mean? What is "completely free" and what is "pay to win"? One could interpret that as disqualifying MTX, which isn't free, and IS part of the game. And one could interpret it as no upfront/sub fee to install and login and play the game for an unlimited amount of time, with access to all gameplay content, with no option to directly buy XP or items (or currency). Or anywhere in-between. Personally, I think that they're within the bounds of (at least that) statement. Clearly, others in the thread don't.

" TIL cinema is free. GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.

Perhaps this is the solution, if you looked at it this way, OP? Free to Play really means free to try out and no monthly fee. If you like it then you will want to buy some stash tabs. If you really like then you may want to buy some other stuff too.

" that's part of the point. "If you like it then you will want to buy some stash tabs. If you really like then you may want to buy some other stuff too". why not the other way around ? why not start from the other stuff ? tabs are not a "luxury" in the current state of the game where you need more than 4 of them to put all your jewels, maps, cards, fragments, offerings etc', and that's before we even start talking about the actual items. and demand for space will only increase as GGG add more stuff to the game. especially stuff which do not stack. also, I'm not the only one who said it - the stack max-size of currency needs to go, simply because it already is gone when inside the Currency Tab. Premium Tab ? an actual trade system would be better, which works also for those who did not throw money at GGG to have the glorious super-powers of "right click price". so why not have the game cost money to play, then add tabs as quest rewards, then add paid MTX which make your char and hideout look badass - on top of that ?

" Actually, I think that might work too or even better? But they have already started on the other model and I think it might be difficult to "change horses in the middle of the stream" Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all!
