I think the reason is Americans would use VPN to fake a cheaper country. But to be honest, these prices are waaaaa too expensive for me - and I live in one of the most expensive places in the US! It's out of control.
I miss when the game was just about exploring and learning the lore of the spirits, even the minor ones and how the cosmetics were designed like they were made from the world itself. Now it just feels like rebranded movie star planet, NO I don't want my ember honking flying fantasy character to wear denim jeans and have an apartment
I’ve been playing this game around 5 years, and I am ashamed of what it has come to. Yes, they’ve added things we’ve asked for; however, it took years of begging. Bugs get released and are seldom solved, constant crashing and server issues. And my oh my the INFLATION. I remember the day they sent a worldwide message that they’d be raising prices and at the time I thought “it won’t be that bad, I bet”. Oh how I was wrong. This game, though lovely, had given me extreme burnout and a spike at anxiety. I feel upset at myself for not playing daily, but I know it’ll ruin what sleep I have left and which the addition that I have a very busy life now. This game kept me living at one point in life, and I thank it for that. Sadly, I think I’ll have to depart from it one day.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, i appreciate it and feel less alone in this issue, for some of your words even resonated with me. I hope you Have a good year :3
Been playing since 2020 and recently quit because of this. Sky’s so peaceful but the IAPS and events and high candle and real costs make it so stressful. Don’t get me wrong; I love the Worldbuilding, the music, and the story told through moth of the spirits. But it feels like TCG has put that on the backburner in exchange for costly seasons with less content than some of the older ones. A Sky death sounds nice :D I might try it some time. Your style of videos is so relaxing to watch, I really like it! And your Sky character is adorable. Hope you have a wonderful day stranger :>
I’m really glad that ppl are starting to call tgc out more on this. For too long the forced positivity TGC can do no wrong attitude that everyone had to have had been really toxic.
What a shame that the game has changed. I’m F2P, solo and lately role player. This game made me to become role player. Candle run and price are not my problem even tho I have some IAP things. I like all seasons and events, my favourite ones are Performance and days of bloom because they are relax. I actually like how season of Duet ended, their song and reunited together made me cry. Do you know it will be season of Moomin after current season? I can't wait for it, it’s not because of cosmetics, but it’s because my family and I watched it when I was a kid and that would be nostalgic to me. Sky is just a game, the game about relaxing and online. I have played it for 4 years and it’s still one of my favourite games. See you.
Yes! The next season will be Season of Moomin. I'm also excited, Moomin brought me a lot of comfort within a difficult home environment as a child. Although the IAPs have gotten me worried, I think experiencing the quests will be something special.
Yep, ive heard of the new season and i also know the show from a meme. Season of duet wasnt awful but i did expect a reason for the party feature. Thx for sharing your thoughts/experience with sky :3
I feel like hearts and lights in constellations should be based on how much of the friend tree you have unlocked. Thus, it makes sense to have special and close relationships instead of accumulating “light buddies”. Another thing would be that gifting light to friends also gifts a slight amount to you as well, promoting “selfish” altruism- not the best, but it gives incentive.
Im a "new" player, Ive played for 10 months now and kinda saw Sky make major changes slowly over time (the heart system on shared memories being one i regret I didn't use as often) But seeing and knowing how much has changed is saddening.. i only really go online for my friends since we group candle run sometimes. Other than that, my solution to the candle issue was to go back to focusing on the main game and items, some event come back next year (increased prices or not) I'd be better prepared to handle them instead of tackling each event with a "paycheck to paycheck" mindset. This year, i got nothing from the days of Shattering and light event, and while im upset by it, honestly. I know this won't impact my life, and i can spend my irl money on a meal instead of candles I've also played less and started solo playing again
Yes! I'd love to have minigames to play with fellow players to earn wax and candles. Give us card games, "football" or just go wild and figure out new types of games for us to play withing the game to chill, vibe & chat with other players. Give us REASONS to interact with out fellow folk and make it fun. It's just feels to me that game is .. Very lazy atm. And i am recently new player and i am already starting to feel burned out and man... That's not good.
I can't really afford any IAPs and anything that's IGC has sparked the FOMO in me so bad that I've forced my sleep schedule into a ditch (right after fixing it lol) just to be able to stay up at reset to grind my quests and 20-22 candles of the day ;0 I need to stop, but I'm too scared I'm gonna miss something I'd REALLY want to have- I think I'm gonna use this moomin season to take a break or so ;0
Here in the Philli we can't afford them IAP some might cause y'know rich, but honestly I played this game to have fun but now it's getting grind grind grind and not staying longer after a run it's getting sad sometimes how more people got dragged in all of that and missing the Fun... It's just sad.
SAME!! Journey is in my top 3 favourite games (along with OneShot and Yume Nikki btw, pointing out cause I see you have a Madotsuki pfp) I like it more than Sky even, tbh. And I really love how they inserted the Traveler to Sky, but man it's SO expensive in my currency, it's literally 2 months of lunch money for me. The fact that I'm in college and have to deal with it's education prices doesn't help either.
I wish IAP pricing was dynamic e.g. countries with lower purchasing power would get IAP pricing lowered.
Same
It's too expensive in my country

You guys are lucky, a normal purchase in Saudi Arabia isn't 20, it's 40, 65 riyals for SANDALS. 100 riyals for journey pack.......
@debokepothegoober hey, its also almost 100 ringgit in malaysia, are our currencies similar value rn? 😅
@@Despotic_Waffle We suffer the same method 🫡😔

Facts. However i actually like the nest idea, always wondered why spirits had homes but not us skykids in the early sky
This. So much this.

@@Peepaboo-0-0 agreed. Why have Event Tech like Aurora without using it?
Maybe there is something for the future?
These heartfelt replies have deeply moved me. I hope all of you are living your best lives now. ❤️

I just wish the game had more to do than candlerunning, at least make the grind fun by giving candles in minigames...

I like the relaxed pace of this video, and good points. Also i love the song at the beginning! You said to name it so here goes: "Appraisal's muse"
Ahh thank you for the constructive feedback!!! And i like that name! XD
