hey there, I have no doubt this thread will be removed, but I feel it's really important to voice my dissatisfaction with this site.
I was playing Dominion online, back with Goko, before they lost the rights, and have since lost the ability to play the expansions I purchased. First let me state, I purchased ALL of the expansions and had hundreds of hours of game time.
now, it seems that dominion online falls to a different company, and they have no interest in keeping their playerbase happy. If there was a 'free year' offered for players under Goko, I certainly didn't receive it, but honestly, even if I did, this concept of 'renting' the expansions is absolutely absurd and downright insulting.
what justification do you really have for charging players monthly for the expansions? I'm sure I will receive a retort of 'upkeep' and 'server maintenance' but the fact is, the only reasoning behind it is pure greed.
I would have entertained the idea of repurchasing the expansions, it would have been nice to get them back considering I had already paid for them, but I understand the temptation to make players pay again considering the rights for Dominion had to be purchased, but it would be reasonable to expect maybe a discount, so as not to insult an existing player base, but to completely disregard them, and then ask a monthly price be paid, is just rude.
and let me be clear, I know the monthly price isn't high, but I would not accept ANY monthly subscription price be paid. Just charge a flat rate for criminy sake.
Just look at Ascension? pay $10 and get the base game AND several expansions!
But I have no illusions, decisions were made, this thread will be closed, my concerns falling on deaf ears.
it's just really unfortunate I won't be able to play Dominion online anymore.
