    Okay -- few things I should probably address
    1 - No, I do not support towers in the battlepass even though I criticized the way icebreaker will be obtained. I think solo specifically is too alienating.
    2 - My opinions around skin quality are 100% subjective. That being said, I wish I rephrased talking about the Christmas battlepass. I wish we had more "Winter" adjacent skins rather than just Christmas.
    3 - Im aware john has said 1 path is a thing for event towers, Im still not a fan.

      John says it makes the towers unique. One thing though, different isn't always better

      @purple6597 6 часов назад

      I think what John had going for how the towers are obtained this event is pretty good, of course the solo nightmare mode should not be the way to get the ice breaker tower I believe that having the event towers split between the actual event and the battle pass is a good idea as keeping strong towers like zed relic and cryo heli in the later levels of their respective bp which require grinding, while the grinding might get repetitive and tedious the reward feels much more grander than just beating the event once and getting such a strong towers to for basically minimal work by beating the events as taken for example for chapter 4 of the Halloween event, nightmare mode wasn’t extremely difficult and giving the relic for beating nightmare chapter 4 doesn’t seem like a good idea for a chapter that wasn’t very difficult, although I do have to keep in mind that chapter 4 wasn’t done completely to the developers expectations which does alter the difficulty of the actual chapter it’s still a good example as to why some specifically the strong towers should be kept as one of the last rewards in the bp while still having at least 1 tower in the actual event.
      Edit: fixed some minor spelling mistakes.

      Idk man 2 paths rlly dont matter bc one will always be meta, so its better and more simple to just do 1 path, like wth is 2nd path of cryo heli gonna be? More aoe? That'll make it the more meta path and people will only choose that path then, or it wouldn't be a difference at all, ruining the whole point

      I'm gonna have to agree, event towers were never meant to have 2-paths to begin with, I also would argue it's better to have 1 path so if a player missed out on it, it wouldn't be as damaging if the tower had more content (being 2 paths.)

      if some one found TDX today or more recently i dont think they have a chance in hell to get Ice breaker unless they just spend time only grinding

    Actually, the point where you said the icebreaker tower shouldn't be obtained by soloing both nm modes is quite flawed.
    For example, my friend has an extremely busy Christmas this year, so he might not even obtain cyro heli because of the bp requirements, but he has good towers and is a good player, which basically guarantees him at least getting icrbreaker for this event.
    Plus, people have been asking for an event tower that isn't locked behind the bp for both the tb event and the Halloween event, and when the devs finally made one that is obtainable without being in the bp, people complain about it, like bruh.

    Honestly you missed some more good things about the event.
    The loadout selection for normal is just a nice feature to allow new players to actually play the event and learn about the game.
    The wave design and map are great in creating a cramped, dual lane pretty fun. Mainly because of the Snow Capw’ns, Gangsters, and Cyro Rangers applying pressure to your towers. So now you have a real risk vs reward of placing splash towers near the front where they get the most value.
    You didn’t give Xenon enough credit, she really created a great idea of the little shit that Xenon is and how she knows ( And I mean that in the most loving way possible).

Cyro ranger only has 1 path because like jacobnoob said THEY COULDNT SUPPORT ONE PATH TOWERS and also the event is rushed and john literally said to use both cryo heli and frost blaster thats why you have 6 slots.

    When i heard John mention in his video that you have to solo both parts on nightmare, it made me wonder about 2 possibilities, the first was can i just go and do nightmare solo now no problem and then do part 2 later when it comes out or when part 2 comes out i have to do nightmare solo part 1 again, because if so then it would kind of suck since there is a chance that whatever strat you used now could become outdated or obsolete when part 2 is released because part 1 got buffed, which would create some problems for those who haven't grinded that much or only recently got to the point where they could try, but i mean it could encourage the trial and error idea, although it might discourage some because of its difficulty and what the player has at their disposal at the time.( something similar to this happened on Chapter 2 nightmare during the Halloween event although it wasn't that big of a problem since you didn't really need to get the badge for it or grind the chapter for tokens because of the release of chapter 3 and 4)
    And the second being the chance that the requirements would change from being required to solo part 1 and 2 nightmare to just needing to beat part 1 and 2 nightmare, where it's up to you if you want to solo or not, the reason why i believe there is a chance is because of the badges for the event, where there is no mention of a solo badge and the changelogs which tell you to just beat part 1 and part 2 nightmare with no mention of having to solo it. I hope this one would turn out to be true because i dont know if golden ranger could carry this one, and also so it wont be as much of a pain to do.

    This video is 90% complaining about superfluous problems only you have 10% actually talking about the event. For example, a genuine criticism I would give is "the base cryo blaster is pretty poor without the support of other cryo towers or powerups" not "please give us more exclusive gatekeepable content by giving 2 paths to a cool tower that's gonna be unobtainable in 2 months". Also, while I agree with the comment that this map had good gameplay, you also got entirely distracted from the other big steps forward this event has made. Quests are genuinely super useful for grinding the battle pass. Cutscenes are a huge advancement for the game. Similarly, matchmaking is super useful.
    Also, can you stop talking like that in some of your videos? While your more analytical and formal tone works for things like breaking down boss fights, when it comes to things that are more about your opinion, it comes across as arrogant. I saw a comment pointing out how you don't speak for the whole community, and while I don't think you were trying to, its hard to not get that impression with the way you talk. Just be a smidge less formal, you know? (Also stop finishing your videos with " in conclusion," its not a history essay its a tdx video )
    Sorry if I'm coming across as a bit mean, its just this video came off a bit negative and problem-focused for something that was supposedly an overview of the entire event. I do like a lot of your content, keep it up.

      To address your comment -- I for the life of me just cant stand one path towers in a game like TDX where 2 path towers are a major draw. While I get that event towers can be seen as gatekept, I don't think that's a reason to make them any less awesome.
      As for cutscenes -- I agree they're awesome, Super good thing for TDX, that being said I was waiting till part 2 cause they are (probably) gonna have more)
      Quests tbh I think are a bit too generic, Im considering making a video on them.
      Matchmaking I like but it def. has some kinks. Its not compatible with certain platforms like console which is a major drawback. This event was awesome for TDX and I really do like it.
      As for the motnone voice things its just something of me doing the "RUclipsr" voice lol, I speak monotone when I record.

    I think the whole reason of forcing the completions to be solo rather than with friends is so that randoms don't get carried by people much more emperienced than them and get the tower in a way that doesn't really feel earned, and also that solo is objectively harder with less towers and more micromanaging.
    Granted pre-made strats exist and they would kind of ruin the feeling of "earning" the tower, but
    1. That's kind of a problem with TD games in general because each individual attempt takes so long, people would rather skip the trial and error and just focus on doing a strat right.
    2. Having to beat both parts on nightmare solo still tests their skill more than if they played with their buddies and had them do most of the hard work.

Gotta say it's disappointing seeing a major part of the community just accepting that one of tdx's core aspects is being taken away for event towers just because it's John's choice. Lastly, wasted potential as mentioned in the video. They could've easily come up with some really cool second paths for these towers, and I'm sure people would appreciate 2 path event towers a lot more than 1 path event towers.

    Completely agree with you. Can guarantee you most of these people in the comment section never played a td game outside of Roblox. Having one tower path removes the strategic aspect of multiple paths, as well as making it more boring.

    Personally disliked the halloween battlepass giving out skins that weren't halloween. I was excited for skins for that time of the year but and having some just not be themed around it was just dissapointing for me to see. This is just my personal opinion however, I like that this christmas event has skins themed around christmas itself.

      @AuthenticSaltz That's fair, I saw the pinned comment and I agree with your point of there being more skins that aren't purely based on said holiday. Though when patriotic g jugg came in the hw battlepass I really wasn't a fan of it since it had nothing to do with hw itself. Though if I remember correctly they added it cause they couldn't make it in time for 4th of july.. Still would've rather had it saved for next one or something.
