Hello Community, this is Blissfulkill here, and I am here to rant about the wing boxes. Specifically, what this gacha continues to do from previous attempts. The RNG is not what I am complaining about, but the new wings themselves. In details, I am upset about
-All the "new" wings are hasty recolors of previously existing wings.
-These wings were not able to be custom dyed in the first place, but are instead, they are their own separate items.
Just...why? We had new wings like Bone Blade and Trifold that are enough to justify their separate existence, but most wings at this point are lazy recolors, for something that should be custom dyed in the first place, like virtually every other fashion item. This stimulates profits for Nexon, by allowing the existence of more gachas, while screwing the playerbase over. I mean, look at this.
Virtually everything is underlined. Two things. First off, there is a mix and match here, Where there are Pewter Cutieflies, there are also Pewter Butterflies, which basically states "same wings as before, but different color for each individual style"
So if you have any doubts that "sunset" wings or others are not recolors, they are. An overwhelming amount of the new wings that actually dropped, are recolors.
This is a continued thorn to customization because we need more gachas, more often, with new prizes, and I do not think that should be how it is. This is just a lazy rehash, and as long as it continues, we will most likely get new wings that we will not be able to custom dye, but have to buy a separate version altogether in a new gacha with nothing to offer.
This is pretty terrible, considering that with new content they are restricting options that were previously available to the player for direct purchase or otherwise. Wig slots? Oh who needs those, Nexon will just unleash customization options as coupons strictly found in the gacha, despite this providing no benefit to the playerbase but plenty for Nexon. At best, only the wealthy or lucky will not experience a real change, but even then, they may want to change hairstyles that would forever rid them of their 80 million gold Ponytail. Oh, and limited duration tails, of course!
Separating wings into recolors is crapping on previous freedoms, and this angers me.
One of the problem is RNG, sure, but the fact that this gacha exists to profit Nexon while options that would have been more beneficial to the playerbase's wallets existed but were not taken. In any case, why do we want recolors when this is what we are advocating with out money? More and more restrictions?
A great game doesn't necessarily have to be unprofitable, nor does being greedy guarantee profit.
Just make wings able to be customed dyed.

I agree. Hence why I am telling other people about the nature of the direction this gacha shows. I did not post "Don't spend money". People can spend it however they want, and that sounds preachy if I did.
Look at Tuan wings for existence. Those dyes are what..? 20m for it? (I honestly don't know seeing as I don't care much for these things)
Imagine if they went about it that way. Specific dyes needed for specific wings. Compared to a "wing dye amp" as a whole. Because then people would bicker over Tuan wings being old fashioned and left in their old way.
Also, imagine flashy wings. It's already gross seeing it on the two-tone cupids.
I'm happy to have options for other colors even if it's just for an easy profit for Nexon tbh
There isn't specifically a downside to it being this way imo.. but that's coming from a f2p player. I'm not sure if this is a different standpoint than someone who actually spends money on this game.
My apologies for the wall of text QwQ
All I wanted was Tuan dyes...Spirit weapon Wings...or something NOT recolored >.>
But here is the problem. I am not advocating that there be no different colors. I am advocating that wings, like most other fashion clothing, be simply dyeable like the rest of our clothing, from armor to clothing to even tails. This would allow greater customization, benefiting the player base, rather than players searching for specific wings and colors that are essentially the same.
I dislike flashies, but more power to people who wear them these days.
it reminds me of how they make 14234392 versions of upgrade stones (not lucky or protection, just the normal one) with different descriptions and tags on them to where they don't stack and only some can be banked and some can be traded, some neither some both
Im still worried about: gendered and race restricted weapons- hair eye and mouth coupons being non-permanent re-purchasable items- limited time pets instead of perm pets- gachas that were VERY bad, like tail gacha. stuff like that...- I dont usually say Nay, becuase i want people to agree with things im worried about too... but i cant see this in anyway a bad gacha. its even advertised as just color assorted new wings.
and we just had several new wings implemented already.
I am sure there are any not any new wings that aren't recolors. The point being that they are doing this for profit. If it isn't enough they put appearance options in gachapons, or the debut of tails and several restrictions (Some needed perma coupons or 90 day extensions, with style tab needed) and I ask, "where do put our foot down?" This isn't just one hiccup, but a direction to increased monetization on items that were previously directly purchased, or able to be used by people with enough gold without spending NX.
This, in the fact of several suggestions for wig slots, and several other suggestions about several other options, and I must say, this has got to stop. We even had the free card with premium features that were NEVER ADVERTISED AT START UP converted into 5 cards without such an option in the first place.
My argument being that several of these wings should not exist, and that dying should be an option on generic versions of said wings. I am not sure about commodities though. I don't know many areas where certain things are needed, but this thread isn't about the problem over there. The game has problems everywhere. I wanted to alert people this this isn't the worst part of a gachapon with poor RNG.
- Because there are so many option in color, a lot of the wings are cheap. People complain wings being too expensive, this forces the price for these wings to be cheaper.
- It also takes the guess work out of deciding what color combo you want on the wings. We got more options for these wings than we did before, it's not that bad.
- Wings are a very small part in this game. They do no restrict your gameplay. Wings do not make you a better player just because you have them (unless you got that give of an ego. Ignore bonus from festia wings since they arent gacha). You like em, you play the gacha or buy off another player. Dont like them, dont get em.
They spelled 'dye' wrong. It's a DYE Gacha.
Seriously, 45 gachas and 0 wings.
also i kind of idk like the fixed colors of the wings? because you can just trade them and if you have to dye them its like a hassle to find the right color dye that you like,,?? idk im pretty tame when it comes to this stuff ;v;''
I think the things I'm more peeved off about are expiring things (like tails) or pons being practically useless for dressing room stuff, especially new hairstyles/eyes/mouths since it's all coupons now.
My only fear is that the new haircolors I think are coming out will also end up needing coupons. I thought dressing room would always depend on Pons when it was released, and better hairstyles would cost a little more, but at least everyone is able to get what they want.
Can't...even...keep them...as permanent options.
Seriously? What the hell is this?
you mean
there will be worse?
