Have you considered that most whales are in their 30s with careers; for some spending 500 dollars on a game they enjoy is less than a drop in the bucket.

i could spend 500 dollars as well but i honestly dont enjoy this game due to the terrible "rng" i have been getting for years now. i only play it when really bored. when they adjust my drops like they do to the streamers/whales i will consider buying something

I was talking to someone about this the other day. Dropped 3 or 4 exalts in a couple hours after a couple days of nothing. Anecdotal as well, I've had the best luck at league start. The first few days of heists this league, I got the Farrul Fur cards x 2 and a nurse. I literally never got anything past mostly void cards and 1 or 2 of the omeceyan (sp?) after that first week or so. I was kind of half-joking hypothesizing to a friend that they were increasing exalt drops because of the inflation, when all the omg sparkles harvest stuff hit the market...
You make it sound as if there was a certain loot battery that you deplete by playing and boy you couldn't be more wrong about it, lol.
Then, perhaps you could explain what I am wrong about, because I don't know how the loot system works. That's why I was using words like: "anedotal" and "hypothesizing".

You probably could but I do not care whether or not you do.
You've spent years complaining rather than learning and improving. Don't worry about funding the game you despise so much, we'll do it for you.

Did you also include more everything into your equation? Because compared to last season (which also had people print exalted orbs, just not from mapping) we have more monsters on every map, more mob density and more ways of generating currency from plain mapping.
This anecdotal "evidence" is just that.. anecdotal.

i dont despise it, if i did then i wouldnt play it at all but i certainly dont enjoy it to the point where i would spend money on it.
if i was just unlucky for a couple of leagues then i could accept that,but always unlucky for years? since 2016? never catching a break? no i dont think so
GGG should stop feeding the people who are already addicted to this game and will buy packs regardless and throw a bone to people like me once in a while. it would be worth their while

Oooooooh so this what this is all about. You're one of those people. :D
Well, you're welcome. I'll happily keep supporting the game while you can continue to hate on it on the forums instead of having fun somewhere else. :)

You and many others think that GGG specifically goes into the coding of streamer accounts to boost their RNG.
I guess if you're the kind of person who believes that, you're the kind of person who could never accept the possibility of being wrong.
What is the value of my own life when it is taken from others so easily? Last edited by Noble_Seiken#0706 on Mar 5, 2021, 4:03:10 PM

this argument cant be proven either way so for you to say that i am wrong is just wrong. people can either believe 2 things but at the end of the day neither can be proven.

I'm not presenting evidence, or any sort of equation, aside from pointing out what I know to have happened personally, what I know other videogame companies have done and why I think they would have the motivation to adjust drop-rates throughout a league. The absence of any evidence is actually why I am doing that. It is speculation, you are making a broader and more general statement about the means to get loot. We're not even on the same page.
