It doesn’t matter. Free spare exps is an extremely weird feature I’ve never seen in any f2p game.
And I think it’s more unhealthy for the game than you actually think.
I don’t see any problem if it was monetized. After all, those exps don’t magically cease to exist. You’ll just have to pay if you want to use them for getting newly added content immediately once it’s released. Or you will have to grind normally like everyone else. That seems very reasonable to me.
And you are definitely wrong about not buying levels for golds. Time exclusivity is for some people more important that it seems. Some would definitely pay.
Your idea (paywalling them) would de facto make them unaccessible as well, unless paying a vastly disproportionate amount of gold to get back XP I already earned.
You could still convert them completely for free to silvers, if you are not willing to pay. Meaning, you would still get some additional resources from it.
So you are wrong.
Unlike what some appear to think, the fact that us veterans don’t mind buying premium content doesn’t mean that we like paying. We don’t get our dopamine shots straight by opening our wallet.
These are two completely separate suggestions. I’m just giving out several ideas for improving the current apparently dysfunctional economy. I have never said they should implement all my suggestions at once.
Rather, I’m just pointing out some directions that developers could take.
And next time, please quote the whole justification and not just a fragment taken out of context.
This is from your POV. From us others’ POV, your idea does NOT improve the core of the economy in the slightest, since it punishes those who reached the end of the grind (most likely by paying, incidentally) without affecting those who are still facing it in any way.
That’s your point of view. But unlike you, I don’t want to live in some pseudo-socialist world. Where everyone gets anything without any effort.
I believe my suggestions are completely reasonable. And I think it’s up to developers to decide what’s best for their product.
It’s neither up to you or me.
You are always welcome to make your own suggestions.
