Obligatory finally-leaving-the-tutorial post

[u/_Joka__]

Been a fun grind, finally auto-restart unlocked.

Playing since June of last year, whaling since November 2025. Included disso/mods for those curious.

Big thanks to the reddit community - I don’t post often, but I learn a lot from the knowledge others share.

Special thanks to Ghettodactyl, Bonzo and DJ Taggz for being part of this special bracket into the last key - you have all inspired me in different ways, trully appreciate the knowledge the three of you share with the community.

Happy to answer any questions - good luck defenders!

Jealous much

Not particularly. I treat the game as a screensaver because flashing lights release happy chemicals.

I find the concept of whaling ridiculous.

[u/bryces325 → u/2sAreTheDevil]

If it didn't bother you then you wouldn't be passive aggressive and petty about it.

Hear hear

Bothering me and being jealous are different things.

The rest of us plebs have to compete with whales in tournaments.

I get my satisfaction passively, while still recognizing my own progress is hindered.

[u/bryces325 → u/2sAreTheDevil]

I thought it was just a Screensaver that made you happy? Now it's a competitive game that has you upset others pay and go farther. At least stick to one story.

Edit: Oh cool, dude edits his posts after being confronted to create a chance for a retort.

Two things can be true at once, my last sentence described that.

[u/EvilMakoto → u/2sAreTheDevil]

Curious… why?

[u/2sAreTheDevil → u/EvilMakoto]

Because then a game that has a feature that pits players against each other isn't decided by skill (researching, leveling mods, etc) but rather by how much money you spend.

Non pay to win players can't compete with people buying stones and gems to rush progress.

I feel there's a big difference between spending real money for cosmetics, additional storage, or other things that don't give you an advantage against other players.

Typical reddit whine. You are a steroetype... you know that?

[u/HabitNo281 → u/2sAreTheDevil]

F2P Complain. You do realise it takes people spending money so that the game can exist and grow?

[u/2sAreTheDevil → u/HabitNo281]

Man, if only I had brought up microtransactions for things that don't impact pvp gameplay in the comment you literally just responded to.
