>Events are starting to get more and more grindy with you needing to own the brand new character and own a brand new event skin from grinding or buying a promoted skin if you want to earn a reasonable amount of event currency.
>People start figuring out ways to idle this because it takes literally a dozen or more hours just to finish some of these events for like one or two skins at best.
>Rather than address the enormous grind they decide to patch the idling methods instead and force matches to be of a certain length of time to earn the higher amount of currency.
>Start testing out a shield system because people were begging for one for multiple seasons and working on different things going forward to retain more players.
>Introduced Elusive skins which are just FOMO event skins that are only available from events so you have to grind even more.
>Hype up season 4 (The current one) with Raven and Marceline as their Squeenix FF7 Remake button.
>Introduce the Fighter Road system where instead of having to earn currency to buy characters you just unlock them with EXP from playing PVP and events instead.
>This gets people excited because it means new players might finally be enticed to come to the game and fix the issues with retention.
>One single character is 15k EXP and it takes like 5-10 hours of battles to earn a single character in a roster of 30+.
>You can only pick and choose from their arbitrary groups, and you can't pick brand new characters.
>New players can't even get Raven without paying.
>The shield system causes Rift AI to become far more annoying and online becomes more stall oriented.
>Also introduce an Arena system where you basically do a bunch of PVP matches to see who comes out as the best team.
>A single run of Arena can take upwards of an hour and feels like it takes an eternity.
and now you're caught up. It's basically been bad decisions for multiple seasons now and looks like it's going to EoS soon.
