RE: Understanding The Splinterlands Crowdfund on Fundition and Kickstarter

in #steemmonsters5 years ago (edited)

First, I am really excited about untamed, the additional awards through kickstarter such as chained golem, and I realize adjustments have to be made along the way, HOWEVER, this really should have been explained or thought out at the start. I hate to be critical, as I'm looking bigger picture, but people made financial decisions the first day or two based on a physical rewards kickstarter with the added time pressure of seeing packs sold on the site with a 100k cap for airdrops. Now any splinterland site preorder pack buys that were made the first day or two are vastly inferior to those through the kickstarter. Digital kickstarter now gets the pack bonus, chained golem, and probably potions. And kickstarter can be adjusted as more information comes out while pack buys on the site cannot. Also some of the lower reward levels on the kickstarter are a better value than the higher ones which will require multiple kickstarter accounts to be made. I totally understand adjustments need to be made along the way, but this will make me hesitate until I absolutely have to commit for future promotions (which I normally do regardless but was wanted the first airdrop).

Additionally, it would be nice to know more details on the physical items. One reply in kickstarter said the book will be available for purchase later. Also, still unclear what will happen with physical cards in the future. Answer on the kickstarter said there are future plans but does that mean they might affect the digital world or that they will just be sold or given out later or both?

Honestly should be rewarding splinterland pack buys with the same rewards as the digital packs buys through kickstarter. Especially since most of that information came out after the pack buys were in full swing on the site. But overall, I'm still positive about the promotions.

Good feedback, doing the best we can. May need to bake this into next year's crowd fund. I'll see what I can detail for this current one.

I may have been a little too harsh. I just like having as much information as possible to make decisions and avoid regret. Appreciate all the work that has gone into this!
