Thread: Post your opinion of the Christmas/New Years Package here!

    Many F2P games need support to keep running and your support shows the value of the product. However, many players are unable to contribute $30.00 dollars. Personally, I have played many games over the years and have supplied money to them all. Unfortunately, times are tough and the money supply runs low. I'm sure others feel the same. Therefore, I feel the monetary value of items purchased should match a lower price. For example, a minimum $5.00 package could contain fewer items. Then an increase to $15.00 with more items and finally the existing $30.00 package. The question is, would you purchase a $5.00 package over a $30.00 package? I know I would!

    That would depend. I would if the wording of the advertisements for the packages did not make false claims about there being 'gifts' involved, or them being free in any sense other than the milk and cookies, when quite plainly, they are no such thing.

    Opinion Opinion Opinion. Good, bad, best or total rip-off it's all in the eyes of the consumer. Bottom line is if the company is getting the results it wants it was a successful offer.

    However, a savvy company will look at trends, customer comments and several other factors such as competing games to see if their packages/offers will continue to be successful.

    Personally my opinion is that the entire coin system is inflated but obviously the company has met it's marketing/economic needs as the system has remained much the same. I've bought the $5.00 offers and would consider purchasing them again. $30.00, even once a month, is more than my budget will allow no matter how many "frees" "bonus" "goodies" etc. are thrown in. A bonus package can't even begin to compare to a good steak, srry Evony but my stomach has spoken

    Why not make our friends give us a package that has the milk and cookies in it? It doesn't need to have all that special stuff just like 10 cents and some produce items, that way evony isn't buying us stuff, our friends are. We don't need to get the same package as the person who spent money!

    Well, I'm sorry, but I find these packages quite offensive! You receive something as a gift from a friend or a member of your alliance, and guess what it is as much use as a chocolate teapot unless you give Evony-Free forever (HAHA!) 30$...

    Well, it might be a fun game, and all that but, it is a real cheek. Close to deception in my eyes..

    Good, Bad, or Indiferent, my opinion...

    The fact is that in order for the alliances member that is not an Evony "Paying" player to get the "Free" package they MUST purchase $30 worth of cents to get the key to open the "Free" package.

    ...therefore it is NOT a "Free" Christmas gift but a ploy to entice more people into the ransk of the paying customers.

    ...that said, I suspect that the entire promotion had to have been rather successful for Evony as the paying players DID get more for their dollar and the non paying players did get some benifit if they had a few paying players in their alliance.
