    REGARDING THE CASH SHOP!! (Jel's Premium Store)
    I didn't touch upon this in the video because it is COMPLETELY optional. I have found that there are many people out there who believe the game is locked behind paywalls and such..
    THIS IS NOT TRUE! I am writing this to explain to those who maybe confused that the outfits in this game are optional, yes there are some nice ones and why shouldn't there be? It's ultimately up to you as the consumer on whether or not you decide to purchase clothing on this free to play game. The devs have stated many times that outfits are the only way they make money to continue supporting Palia! Nothing in the game will stop you having fun, the community here is wholesome, friendly and headstrong. I stand by this and to anybody genuinely confused, give the game a go and enjoy yourself because THERE IS NO PAYWALL.
    Much love.

    I'm very glad you're making a point of telling folks to slow down and not try to rush through the experience. You really do get a lot more out of being in Palia by taking your time, reading all the quest dialog and learning all the villager's stories and enjoying the culture being developed there. The people are fantastic on the whole and while I Fully and Completely understand that feeling of wanting to sponge it all in as fast as you can.. You miss a ton of the magic of Palia when you're in a hurry. There are enough legit times you'll be zooming around, trust me, and slowing down for the rest will only give you a better experience.
    *Cheers.!
    and thanks.!

    I like that the devs have listened to us and added facial hair. As an older male with a beard it helped me identify with my character a bit more with that addition. Something to add that I think would be nice is you could add color pallettes like warframe has to the cash shop. The palletttes could be themed like Spring colors or autumn colors or holiday themed. That would add a reason to spend a bit of real life cash. I also would love somethings in the cash shop that are cheaper so that if you can only get the 800 coins to get the one pet that there is something to use the coins on instead of needing to save them up.

    I hit renown cap and gold cap, ran out of content apart from resource collection then the achievements got bugged and there was literally no point anymore. I played in closed Beta and the game ran like a dream. Following open beta every update brought more and more bugs which were not fixed and I left. Lack of rewards to work towards like clothing, titles etc leave it feeling like an empty grind. The premium shop is hella expensive and the clothing options in there are not great. very sad really it showed such amazing promise.

When I say upload I mean using something like Macro Music Language where you type or paste in said code and the game parses it and plays a tune.

      Mabinogi utilizes the custom music as part of it's skill systems, so you compose actual items that contains said language script in it, and play instruments using the scroll item equipped.

    I was in the closed beta and carried over to the open beta. I too had my moments of "this game is great, i dont see why my friends are walking away from it". But the more i played (even causally), the more the bugs that never got fixed started to get on my nervers and sour my opinion slowly. I would say "This climbing glitch where I get stuck is annoying, but not the end of the world" but patch after patch after patch it never got better. I said the Chaapa chase event was "okay" at the start and was actually even better after the rework they did for it (I will admit this), but the fact that they had glaring bugs that didnt allow people to recieve their rewards from the limited time event and rather than *fixing them* and helping the players that couldnt, closed the event and basically gave them a 'sorry, maybe itll be fixed next time'. This is *NOT OKAY* to me.
    I believe the Palia devs are doing what they think is right, but I will not be logging back into their game for the time being.
    I understand bugs are bound to happen, but when every patch meant to fix bugs not only *introduces new bugs* but doesnt even fix the bugs they were trying to fix???? No.
    I disaprove that their release style is to keep pushing out patches with new content before fixing the old content. It's like they are releasing it as if it was full release. Its not, its beta where things need to be fixed. I understand the need to push out patches to keep people ineterested.... but if you put out unfinished glitchy patches while not fixing old glitchy patches youre going to lose people to anger and have them not come back at all VS people liking and enjoying the game and just taking a break until a new patch (you lose fewer people this way).
    The bugs piled up one by one over time. The lack of response from the devs in their discord slowly piled up too (It took months to get an accessibility channel despite hundreds of people asking and pleading for one.).
    The final straw for me was after completing most of what the game had to offer (somewhere around August/September) and i was on my achievement hunting phase by catching all the bugs and fish I hadnt already, I looked to see what i was missing and all achievements were undone. I no longer had images of things i had discovered. It was all black. This had been a major bug since Alpha and never fixed. Countless people have reported it. I was so angry that the time i spent getting my joy from completion was lost. Any bugs, fish, or furniture i got after this never filled the black spots. It's like it didnt matter.
    I took a break after this.
    I decided to come back when they did the food rebalance..... This was literally the worst patch. The "rebalance" broke any need to have a social gathering to make foods (formerly "cake parties"). They completely removed the need for Jam??????? in any recipe without any warning. The rebalances were broken because you would LOSE MONEY putting things in to worm boxes. The devs said they wanted cake parties (an entirely community driven idea) to be around for a long time and yet made it not woth the effort of coordinating, trying to get 12-18 people into one place (when housing instances have a cap of 24-25 people. This is difficult for the hoster, especially during prime play times), the lack of profit from it now, and the lack of additional profit coming from the worm boxes. It became no loner worth doing it. I would rather pick fruit and make jams and sell that than fight for instance space, coordination, and time.
    I did not come to Palia expecting a fleshed out game, but I expected better from people who were devs on other major games (iirc many were from WoW/Blizzard).
    I expected players to be heard and they arent.
    I am dissapointed and angry because I know they can do better, not because i want the game to fail.

    I am/was on the fence, but the fact you do not even touch on the cash shop makes me even more wary of this and shy away even more from this game. I did see in a video that one can only receive certain pets ONLY IF one spends RL cash and I understood it was not cheap. I understand people must make money, but adding a cash shop in Open Beta, and Paywall items even before Full Release is a big no no for me. Too bad, because many aspect do seem very nice, bad sadly for me do not out balance what I consider the big no no. Would also be nice to have this on Steam. The real downside is I will miss out on a seemly wonderful community.

    • @refinedzero
      @refinedzero  Рік тому +16

      The reason I don't touch upon the cash shop is because its only optional. There is nothing making you use the cash shop in the game and they just recently added a free character customization mirror where you can go back and re edit your Palian. The pets are a bonus to purchasing an outfit from the shop which is nice but the game is free to play, the outfits in this game are the only ways they make money and considering it is ultimately up to you to decide on whether or not you want to do that. I don't know where people get the idea that this game is a paywall.. it legitimately is optional.

    • @oomfoofoo6873
      @oomfoofoo6873 Рік тому +3

      @@refinedzero I do not claim the game itself is a paywall, but it has items that ARE paywalled. To be clear, my personal view of a paywalled item, means the ONLY way to get such item is to play RL cash, there is no in game way to get it via playing only. This in itself is not a bad thing per se, but to paywall items in a non full release game is considered bad etiquette.
      If the game is good, and provides me with many hours of entertainment, I am more then willing to buy cosmetic items that appeal to me, because this is the way to keep the game running as long as possible for people (and myself) to enjoy.
      But to offer overpriced and/or paywalled items in a beta, just gives me bad vibes.
      Saying it is optional, for me, is not an excuse for paywalling or overpricing items in the cash shop.
      To me, the way a cash shop is presented, also shows intent (making one feel like a customer supporting a game one loves, or a cashcow to be milked).
      The claims I make are my own personal feelings, and I hope you can understand this.

      @@refinedzero I disagree with this. Palia is marketed as a cozy game, and predatory cash shop prices goes against the spirit of this type of game. It feels like there is a direct disconnect between the vibe of the game and opening the cash shop and seeing you have to pay more for an outfit in a game than for a meal in real life. Pets are a HIGHLIGHT of any game, but ESPECIALLY cozy games. Same goes for fashion and customization. I enjoyed Palia, sure. I was part of the closed beta, I fought so hard to get that damn key on twitch, but opening the cash shop left such a sour taste in my mouth that it made me not want to be a part of the game anymore. And every cash shop addition I hear of makes me proud of my decision. I will take my time and hard earned money to less predatory pastures, I do not like what this company stands for.
