Would you believe it if we said that things were too easy during Beta?
I could beat the game within a couple hours. I used 4 AoEs monsters as my starting lineup. Didn’t lose a single one all throughout master league. MASTER league. I just spammed the same moves. Would you have preferred that game? Sounds like you might…but the rest of the world probably wouldn’t.
I’ve made it a VERY good point as a tester to delete my account and restart. With every single new build up through development. Including the release.
And guess what? I’m on my second run through of the game. Yep, already beat it. Admittedly, at that point that was my account from a bit before release, and fruits were easily obtainable back then even in Advanced League. However, most of the gameplay I went through in the new, public version.
However, I’m strutting along on a perfectly new account. As a player, not a beta. No bug-fix gems. No lasting fruit/silver/ingredient benefits. No inflated hero level. Nothing. I’m starting from the same point as everyone. And I’m doing just fine.
Things are hard. Of course they are. It wouldn’t be a substantial game otherwise. And again, you can get youthfruits outside of the youthfruit dungeon!!! I’ve said this so many times.
And if you thought the last ruins on the ice island is overpowered? Try the last ruins on the last island for Blurbeak. I dare you to try that. I could do it. Granted, I was lucky…I know it’s hard. I barely won. It was as hard as the Grand Champion battle.
But it’s possible. And again, progress is exponential. Be patient. Don’t try to rush through the game.
