hey, Nevergreen games, or at least whoever is behind the development decisions on this game in particular, if you by some chance are reading this, please hear out my advice.
you don’t want to have both AI generated content and monetized gameplay at the same time, if you want the game to have a flourishing, lasting playerbase.
listen, I’m not a game dev, so i probably don’t know nearly as much about game development as you, but I and those I had previously recommended the game to were nearly all unanimously willing to spend money on it, but that was with the impression that the AI images were placeholders, but now said placeholders are starting to overstay their welcome as said placeholders were replaced by yet even more sloppy placeholders, despite the game currently in open beta already having payment options available, which makes us wonder, where is that money going if not (hopefully) towards keeping the game online, feeding devs, and commissioning actual visual artists to design the card arts. I’m just warning you out of personal interest in the game that adding payment options into your game, especially in open beta, will naturally come with increased expectations for quality.
Kind regards - Desmodante.
