#Two Hour Limit Feedback + Opinion

I've been a user of WeMod approximately since October, 2023. After discovering it I remember being excited since I was able to customise my games, to either push them to the limits, have fun with friends, or just an easier experience overall. Having cheats available became a huge deciding factor of whether I'd buy a game or not. Then we got "wand", ads, new AI features, and I was ok with it.
Then we got the 2 hour limit. And no matter what the admins claim in every post they reply to (the replies are all VERY similar) this feels like they dont care about the community. The limit felt more like "pay or don't play" rather than a way to earn more pro members (if that was your intention). They also claim "your feedback is important to us and has been read" but there hasn't been a single announcement in the discord, or forums, about that. For an app that claims "Your game, your rules", locking basic cheats behind a 2 hour limit, which is barely enough for most gaming sessions, feels extremely restrictive. The limit being introduced came out of nowhere for most users as well. I did not get an email about the limit, and it was not listed in the app update notes.

I get that maintaining all the mods/features costs money. But this is not the way to do it. People loved wemod for that it was: An easy to use app, designed to customise your gaming experience. Introducing the limit feels forced. I uninstalled the wand app the same day, and I am not sure I will use it again even if the limit is removed. Thankfully most games nowadays have either a dev console, or mods. It wont be as easy to use as wemod used to be, but it's still better than what it has turned into nowadays.

Also, unlisting posts and making them private on the forums, just so other people cannot see them, does not support your "we want to earn your trust back" claim.
The community has already given you plenty of alternatives. It's up to you whether you'll listen to us, or keep going down the same path.

Thank you for sharing all of this. We can tell this came from a real place and we genuinely want to understand your experience better.

How long are your typical gaming sessions? And what kinds of games do you usually play with Wand? We are asking because every player uses it differently and understanding what your sessions actually look like helps us understand the impact.

What feature or moment meant the most to you when you first started using the app? Sometimes knowing what someone loved most tells us more than anything else.

We are listening and we appreciate you sticking around long enough to write this out.

Depends. On average 3-4 hours, but back then it used to be more sometimes.
Games...mostly survival, but I played stuff like platformers from time to time.

#

About the features:

#

Infinite HP/MP was a must

#

stamina, for Valheim

#

game was unplayable without it

#

thats why Im writing all these posts
wemod has been a huge part of my gaming experience

#

or do you think I would have the patience to play hollow knight, or Silksong, without the mods?

#

no way

steep brook
#

Hihi, fair enough, I gave up hollow knight reaaaal soon (and I'm a soulslike enjoyer)

toxic prairie
#

I also introduced the app to a friend of mine and he loved it

toxic prairie
#

I play stuff without mods as well
but sometimes you just wanna sit back and relax while playing

#

wemod was the way

3 to 4 hours in survival games makes total sense and honestly Valheim without stamina mods is a whole different level of commitment. The fact that it made games like Hollow Knight actually finishable for you says everything about what Wand was for you. It was not about making things easy, it was about making them possible on your terms. bongoheart

The fact that you introduced it to a friend and they loved it too shows the kind of thing that is hard to replace

#

I know that sometimes can feel that we do not hear you guys, you wouldn't know how much we care, and I guess we are failing in showing off this to you.

I have looked through many posts here, and the community has offered a ton of suggestions on how to move forward

That's why sometimes we take actions on some rage comments or disrespectful ones, so it's a safe enviroment ❤️

I get that you have a difficult job to do, since yeah not all comments are going to be polite etc
but seeing that my first experience with the forum being
my post getting private a few hours after I posted it

#

you get what my first impression was

steep brook
#

Yes I know first impression is the one that sticks

#

But I assure you that all of this has a resonable reason, that's why we came up with the little chat feedback open, so you can chat through, these ones here (where we are speaking) are meant to be structured like: feedback posted, answered, passed to the team, team will hear and think through ideas

#

That's why they most likely will be closed on this section u know

#

Im gonna go update my friend after this
"I talked to an admin, they were pretty chill"

steep brook
#

Hihihihi, am I the admin?

toxic prairie
#

"support"

#

anyway, I hope at some point in the future, either the limit gets removed alltogether or

#

something changes

steep brook
#

We are all in this together, as long as we can still be a community, we will surpass all difficulties, and if you need to talk, vent, share more ideas, I'll always be here for you

toxic prairie
#

thanks, I really appreciate that

#

I might come back to the app if I see some changes tbh

#

also I dont know if and when this could be done, but I think a discord announcement addressing that you guys do in fact read through the suggestions and feedback of the community, would help a ton

#

discord, forum, in-app...so it reaches everyone

#

anyway, thanks for taking the time to help me.

steep brook
#

Noted!

#

Thank you @toxic prairie ❤️

toxic prairie
#

hey, I'm happy to give something back

#

I just think it would help calm everyone down
