Lmao lemme tell y'all something

Back when tgc announced this TS system, before it was put into beta, the backlash was so bad, multiple people got kicked, and ktjn herself had to put out a statement saying "Its not in beta, its just an idea, calm down"

They defended the announcement, saying they wanted to "ask for the community's opinion before anything"

So well, with that amount of backlash, you'd think they'd think twice about the new system right?

Look where we are now

If ultimate rewards do come back they should definitely be IAP think about it it wouldn’t be fair to be people who actually bought the pass for the respective season and for it just to come free or perhaps have a pricey price on it for new players to get isnt fair they spent money on it and for others to get it free definitely not fair

I thought the ultimate gifts would be coming from the quest giver as a ts and not the whole spirits from a season. I mean, why are they making half of the ts ap access? when the ultimate gifts are ones players only wanting to come back as a ts. Why make it harder for players who can't afford aps on making the half chart of a ts ap needed? the old ones is better imo, so please don't let this test come to live stickerGloomy ( sorry for bad english )

i had an idea for how they could bring back the ults: theyd be IAP but in order to see/buy them, you'd have to have the pass for the current season. then you could buy them in the shop but which ult comes back is completely random. this was just an idea tho and im not even sure if i want ults to come back-

How is the new system unfair?
You had to pay for those items earlier when the season was active and you have to still pay now if you want to get them. What's "unfair' in that?

I think I remember seeing back then, someone in TGC mentioned that the TS change is actually going to reduce income, since apparently a lot of players buy candles for the TS. And if the free cosmetics become added in the AP, less people will buy candles, and more people would get the pass.

The thing is, compared to the candle prices, the adventure pass is super cheap. So, TGC is the first company I've heard of that reduces profits on purpose-

low parrot
#

I think another reason for them making the ts system like that is there might be a chance that they considered an idea for the return of ultimate gifts. Like re-runs for events in other games. At the same time considering our feedbacks on the ts system in order to understand our povs while making more adjustments on our game experience and for the company not to loose too much money for their hard working staff.

I think it’s because there were ults back then and now theres no more ults even if u have to pay?

“thats how the games work, those who dont buy iap wont get it” thats exactly why im worried, why i dont want sky to end up like these games.
you insist life isnt fair when it can be made fairer.

that being said, the pass feature does not discriminate. anyone with the money can buy it

Honestly, I was debating on commenting because I seriously have no chill with people who are pushy. they will release the beta invites when they so choose and not a moment sooner or later. There is nothing you can do about it accept sit and wait patiently and keep your grievances to a minimum. All this bickering is unnecessary. So please. Honor the spirit of patience...

#

I mean at this point I feel like just seeing how the ts system unfolds... I’m just one voice and my opinion won’t really make or break a decision. Ultimately, the company decides what’s in the spirit of sky and what’s not..
I’ll sit on this new system for a bit more again... really don’t want to drop in feedback when I feel so one sided about it...

Until then, maybe I’ll just cut my losses,cry and try to get what I can from the spirits until this system rolls out in live so I don’t regret not getting the items now...
either way, I don’t see it being bad for me now anymore.. I’ll get to take a break from candle running and log in for the daily quests
My only gripe is that the tree balancing doesn’t feel very balanced in the perspective of a non AP pass holder.. the grind would still be there... except now it’s for less items... u_u
I low key feel like glaring at players who complained about the grind now... like they just had to go and complain didn’t they sighhhh

you know im very curious about people opposing to the return of ultimate items, especially older players who seemed to have a problem with this concept
and i would like to know what you guys are thinking about
from what ive noticed, people did not want ultimates to return because of a social status possibly? the feeling of having more than others or not being able to look unique, which is interesting because that moves to the question "why do you play this game?" or "why cant a player have the ability to have the same items as you do?"
to me, i think giving others a chance to have an old cosmetic is fine because I play mostly for the socializing part and being able to express myself through these emotes and cosmetics, but not so worried about others having the same items because i feel like im my own person

perhaps its the limited variety of cosmetics because of this game being little over a year old and not having that many seasons yet.
(also i fully respect everyone's reasons to play sky, im just in a thinking bubble atm) pEyes

I feel the system is unfair to new players, cause they don't even know what is a ts and the period for each ts is short, so new players don't have time to make their decision to either purchase the pass or not
we all play the game for months so we know it's worth to buy the pass, but not for the new players

Just a reminder that there's a huge difference between feedback and rudeness. Instead of bickering, please show some respect to the devs by offering something constructive stickerHeart
I know many of us aren't super happy about the new system, but at least acknowledge that they're trying to fix it. If they really didn't care, they would have left it as is.
By leaving the game, you're removing yourself from the journey to help it. The final decision is up to you, but you'll end up missing the chance to see it grow into something better.

# zinc prawn you know im very curious about people opposing to the return of ultimate items, ...

I think its def the feeling of being able to be identified as a player from which season you are in. I understand to a degree how they would feel but also everyone should have a chance to get it and not be limited based on what time they joined. Perhaps the ults they implement in the future could have slight variations like rhythm hair having a silver band instead of gold accent? Some say to make it look like a trash version like cardboard but thats unfair really... All the heated debate over ults I've seen are just scary

I agree that its unfair for new players since I myself took awhile to know the existence of the TS

Do people who own previous spirit items really care about the TS system? I don’t know. But for me, I think this is a commercial decision. Like Apple, every year new iPhone out with a higher price and the old model get a lower price, does anyone complain? I think players focus on new items than the previous items. But the TS system should be free for new players, because they could not experience the previous seasons even with the TS system. That would be not fair for them if TCG tries to charge them. Only my personal opinion.

I think it's rather unfair not only for new players who don't understand the concept of ts but also who live in third world countries where the adventure pass is too expensive for them to buy

# zinc prawn you know im very curious about people opposing to the return of ultimate items, ...

Honestly hahaha ok. So i guess you have yet to finish a season or you would understand the time it takes to complete them. My issue as a “VET” or whatever you want to call us has nothing to do with me not wanting players to have the items. It’s the fact that I have put in a ton of time into sky for many seasons and why should players be handed items i personally have spent my time working for. If anything I think it’s pretty selfish and says a lot about the new players demanding cosmetics that we have earned and blaming us for being the ones “being selfish” if it’s not all about cosmetics why do u care about receiving items we have worked months for. Maybe that’s the question we should be asking.

Honestly I’m just chilling in beta- I made a good friend who also was new to beta and spirit&realm ran with me for like 5 hours. I got all the spirits, the only thing that annoys me rn is the translation button- I need a toggle for it. I don’t really like the new ts system, maybe they could make most of tree free but only the final, top gift is AP locked? Idk, I’m truly just vibing

Choose your own opinion! There’s a lot of hate on the ts system, and I don’t like it either, but don’t be swayed! Make sure it’s you who is decided whether you like it or not

Make some new friends and keep it cool! Also I joined with first invite wave today- and I was able to get prophecy AP? I have the necklace and can get the AP locked things

It’s no different for when old players were new players .... I was playing sky but didn’t know how to play properly and therefore missed many cosmetics including deer mask ... being a new player is what it is .... you have to learn . That’s how things are unless you research first ..... not knowing how to do something is not anything to do with things being unfair I don’t think.If I had taken the time to read the how to play information the game gave when started then it would of been different and I regret that ....most of us I think was the same when started sky ( had no clue ) what I missed I missed and i can’t blame the game ..... new things will come to the game and a chance to get old stuff in some way ...I think that’s fair that the chance is even given ..

I dont think its particularly nice to call someone selfish because they are just wanting an in-game item back and paying it fair and square with real money, and im sure it wont be cheap :)
i understand you played every day to get the items but people may invest a ton of their own hard earned money for those ultimates so theyre both valid points

To be quite honest it's alright for me if ultimate gifts don't come back--because after all, the others are right, the players did dedicate time in order to get those cosmetics.

to me the ultimates are more than cosmetics they they are entire season wrapped up into one cosmetic, when i think of the ultimate gifts i don’t think of how cool they look and how no one should ever get to wear them again but i think about the experiences i had, the friends i made and the time it took for me to gain the item during the season. it’s not selfish to want to keep those items sacred imho

Eep, we got the Ult discussion and the TS discussion going both at once. Make sure to keep it all polite pAww

I sent this before but I might keep sending it every now and then since things easily get lost here at the moment and its important to make sure there isn't a spread of false information so any feedback can be as correct and constructive as possible:

"I’m seeing a few people feeling unsure about the real life cost now associated with the TS changes in the works and still under development. Just a reminder TGC actually stands to lose money on these changes. I said a little more in my earlier message here: #beta-discussion message
This in turn links to Ktjn’s message where this was confirmed quite some time ago now.

As always be sure to leave polite #beta-feedback to voice your opinion and suggestions stickerHeart"

# golden bear I think its def the feeling of being able to be identified as a player from whic...

if you work your backs off to justify your sole claim on the cosmetics you supposedly own, im sorry but the pass feature wouldnt help you. anyone with the money can buy it, which means that moth who played the game for a whole day can wear your rhythm pants if they can afford, or the player who joined since sanctuary can get the mask you get from a previous seasons if they’re willing to pay huge bucks. all because the seasonal pass is of present season, not the past. because why would tgc put a past seasonal pass up for sale when the season’s already over? you still cant distinguish who is deserving of the cosmetics according to your elitist, pathetic standards. in the end, this feature still doesnt give you the filter you want. good luck with that.

radiant drum
#

It's important to remember that for any changes there are feedback coming from both sides, that agree or disagree with the change. Public perception on these features might seem one sided but it's quite rarely true. Even if you disagree, there could be many people that liked the change, and in the end it's up to TGC to make their choices with the available feedback from all testers and players

I definitely dislike this system, but it’s definitely worth a try to see what it would be like.
Just be thankful they wouldn’t put it into Live without any warning. Give your honest, honest opinion in #beta-feedback , but please give constructive advice of how this concept could be changed.

also remembering the sunglasses are one of my most iconic masks in Live upset me a bit, (I have no idea what I’ll do without them in a way!) but I can find...different iconic masks.

As much as it hurts in the deep inside; I’m attached to my sunglasses. A lot more than I thought I was.

I'm not a new player, but I like the set up as it. many late players work very hard to do cr every day to collect the 100+ candles to unlock the past seasonal items. i would call that an effort. They too put a lot of time into something they want. I also understand how Vet players feel, but I personally like the setting as players do have to work hard and be committed to play througout the week to collect candles (even if they decide to buy candles, they aren't cheap, and certainly be more expensive than a seasonal pass if they want to purchase candles to get those items).

While I do have my own opinions on it, for now I am willing to wait and test it. Everyone are having such bad reaction to what the TGCI decided to put in beta. It's honestly sad.

For now, why can't all of us just sit down and try and help out with giving feedback without coming off as rude or start dividing in the chat. While yes, the system might seem off and wrong for some, others will have their reasons why they would want this to actually happen.

Why can't we just simply listen to each other opinion and not have a backlash on other people opinions? I'm sure that there must be a good reason behind each opinion that is put out here.

For one, I don't agree with the new system, but I am willing to give it a try in beta and see how it goes. Constructive criticism and testing is the main thing each game needs.

So far Sky has been nothing but humble and really nice and sweet with their players!!! So please, please, please can we just stay civilised and let people have their own opinions out here without any backlash? Or being simply rude towards TGCI for these updates.. After all they are in beta for a reason...

Lets just vibe and help TGCI with the ideas they have put forwards in beta for us to test and give feedback on. pCry StickerHugs

TS & Ult idea looking for feedback:
Perhaps could be fortnightly there is an orbit reset. For this to start you must complete at least one normal constellation (so the player isn't a fresh moth and can understand better) You ascend to orbit and in the central node position where seasonal constellation would usually be from home there could be a symbol for each season. Clicking any one of them would then result in that specific seasonal constellation to appear, further clicking a spirit would result in that spirit coming down with their price tree showing and a 2 AC unlock cost first (unless they have already been bought before with their wing buff). Unlocking the spirit from orbit (only one unlock allowed each orbit reset) would make that spirit show up in your world like the TS for a few days during which you can unlock their cosmetics. After that they leave and orbit wont show the seasonal symbols until a fortnight's time. If you fully complete a season then you can open up the season in orbit and call down the quest master at orbit. Like the elders the quest master can be called down for free at any point in orbit to show the unlock IAP prices for the ults (that's why the call down fee is free in orbit for the quest master, so a player wont miss out on a different TS if they realise they don't have enough real money).
Pros: reliable, makes sense from a game standpoint with orbit being the call area, matches in with the elder ultimate gifts, still would take a long time and not devalue the ultimate gifts, allows for vets to hunt down wing buffs and newer players to hunt down ultimates or their favourite look, allows for individual hype with each player getting the new items they wanted meaning less TS cosmetic spam with everyone wearing the most recent TS gear.
Cons: Would result in popular TS items becoming 'common' early on, may take a bit of explaining to understand, return of hard to get but attainable ultimate gifts may leave some unhappy (hit word limit)

I'm an artist that work off of commission. But I am not allowed to get a card hence I can't buy anything even if I had thousands of cash in my wallet.

It would be painful for me to see other people get the pass and at the same time enjoy the items locked behind the TS tree. And that's why I wait for Travelling Spirits with several of my friends, and we would always get excited because hey!

All we need to do is grind and grind and take our time and effort to get it. No need for iAP.

Personally, I got all my candles without buying ANYTHING. Just months and days of Candle running, nothing else.

if you have worked your backs off to justify your sole claim on the cosmetics you supposedly own, im sorry but the pass feature still wouldnt help you. anyone with the money can buy it, which means that moth who played the game for a whole day can wear your rhythm pants if they can afford, or the player who joined since sanctuary can get the mask you get from a previous seasons if they’re willing to pay huge bucks. all because the seasonal pass is of present season, not the past. because why would tgc put a past seasonal pass up for sale when the season’s already over? you still cant distinguish who is deserving of the cosmetics according to your subjective standards. in the end, this feature still wont give you the seasonal divide you want. good luck with that.

As ive said before when this was proposed months ago, I heavily disagree with the new system

I’m a vet and someone whos paid for passes before, and the new system honestly hurts
The current ts system we have in place already works amazingly, so i see no reason to adjust it
And although yeah i see why some are upset about “well i paid to get my cosmetics they should pay too”, the elitist ideology is just plain sad. Who cares? I hear you on the front of working hard to get your pass locked items dude, i had to skip out on lunches for months at a time to save up for passes. But i dont see a big deal between that and someone else working hard in game for candles to spend
Especially since im on both sides of this

Sky is a major comfort game for me, and its main feature is being social and fun
A lot of people collect cosmetics so they can express themselves better, or cosplay their characters, their friends characters, etc
I hate seeing people who just want to lock it for elitist social hierarchy reasons. There should be no place for that in sky
If you want something to take pride in for getting a pass, why not wear the ultimate gift or season pendant? Those things have so far been proven to remain pass exclusive, and I personally hope they do as they represent more than just a cosmetic

really hope the ap lock change isnt implemented into live, many players like me arent able to get season passes and we would miss out on a lot of really cool items from past seasons :(
imo instead of an ap lock it should be a big discount for ap holders and if ultimates were ever to become available only those should be pass-only

I submitted a feedback...

Iam curious if TGC considered keeping the existing ts prices but introducing x% discounts for pass holders. A non pass holder wouldn’t get any discounts, however a pass holder can get an x% discount.
I believe this gives players complaining about the grind a choice, especially since the original intention of introducing this system is to ensure players that are purchasing candle packs wouldn’t need to purchase as many.

Is actually a very good feature and is fair enough for ppl who bought the pass earlier in the season. I felt bad for people who bought, for example season of rhythm, but after that they will know that they will get the same things for free with candles in the future,like bro is just so unfair for ppl who bought the season and they wasted their money just to get a ultimate gift. For me is a good thing and i really like it

I hope ult gift will be free but hard to get when they come back. Maybe players who played the season without pass can only access that seasons ult gift which requires us to complete the season via ts

I believe its justified that ults don't come back, but I definitely understand why people want them to return. I'm kind of neutral in the debate, so this is all I can offer!

As far as the new TS system, the new system would make it really hard for me to play on live, I guess? As it is currently, anyways. The TS are what tend to motivate me the most, because I have a bunch of sky OCs that use cosmetics from seasons that I wasn't present for (I joined during Enchantment).
I don't have any means to make money to put towards my own AP, my friend always has to buy one for me. If my friend, one season, couldn't purchase an AP for me, I could possibly miss out on TS that I really liked and have been looking forward to.

I also understand the system, though, and I definitely believe its worth testing out. There haven't been many TS in beta since the system was implemented, so its kind of early to make full judgements. TGC could easily hear us out and make adjustments to accommodate our problems!
Obviously its still okay to debate, though, as long as everyone us respectful stickerHeart

Edit: This wasn't supposed to be a reply so I apologise 👁👄👁 but my point is still there

i generally DO NOT even think about liking the ts system. i think it's not really okay, since many rely on this. it's also the game devs pushing monetization into the gamr, which when i asked my friends what they think about it, they said they don't like it and will most likely stop playing sky. i think the people have shown big disagreement towards this system, so please TGC, take people's voices into consideration too.stickerOK people who buy candles for the ts SHOULD NOT complain, cuz its their own will and noone is pressuring them to buy them. if you don't have time for cruns, just ask someone to cr for u. don't make us FtP hard workers pay for something we don't want.

Literally that’s what we said. We just want to keep our pendants and ultimates for the time we spent playing season. There is no pride- we have families and jobs and life outside of sky and we take time away to play. Because we all love the game. So when all that time wasted by saying here collect some candles or here pay some cash. People who earned that kinda feel like time was wasted.

People have said this and I'll say it again.
The pass should be there so that you can get the items Faster and Eariler plus the ultimate rewards(which are exclusive) . People who did not buy the pass or dont intend to don't have to be put down in the dirt just because they missed a season. Non AP holders still have to wait months before buying a ts item (and even that is chance based). So conclusion, the ap locking is a bad idea imo.

So, a season has about 60 days, TS come biweekly, every 14 days, meaning that during a season, we get 4 TS which some can be repeated.

Aye, buying a season pass will be worth for the current season, but this implementation will be absolute bonkers for people who get it for a TS item. The way I see it it's $10 USD for 4 TS which can be repeated, so the amount of earned cosmetics ain't as worthy as a season pass amount. Unless they implement multiple TS or weekly TS, I personally don't believe in the TS system as a Value thing, considering it was Free before and a price reduction ain't exactly compensating, if you reduce in game currency in exchange for real money.

Do people not enjoy meeting friends from all over the world to learn about different languages, customs, cultures anymore ? To exchange new ideas, concepts in a beautiful environment ? To inspire and support one another ? To explore and figure out new ways to glitch sky ( a joke ) 😆 ? To play music and share stories ? Are cosmetics the only reason you play sky ? Why so many are saying they would quit sky if the new TS system is implemented 🤔🤔 this is really baffling to me because I love sky for the flying and the love I share with my friends ... Cosmetics are the last thing that I care about ... but maybe this is just me ? 🤷🏻‍♀️ anyway good night 🌟

I also saw the beta update and imo it's really a bad idea. People, especially to those people who can't afford the pass will be very upset and may end up leaving the game. Many people who play Sky are still young and are still studying. The reason why we candle run is because of this too and people who can't afford and were not able to buy a pass can have a chance of getting these same cosmetics for free, but way more expensive amount of candles, which is fine. So I don't see any reason to change anything. The reason why we candle run and we help our friends with runs is mostly because of this after all. Take all of that away, and what is the point?

So, I really do hope they don't put this in live version. 🙏

I think people are saying that they would quit Sky is because they dedicated time and energy to candlerun, and if this new system might be implemented, all their hard work is going down the drain. They would stop because--you could be doing anything else. I know that they chose to give time to the game, but it would still hurt to see that everything you've worked for would be all for nothing. Time is something you could not get back, after all.

This is also the reason why I don't agree in bringing the ultimate gifts back--the effort to get the ultimate gifts. Sure, some could just buy extra seasonal candle packs, but most would grind for the whole season, right? So I respect the efforts of AP holders.

(This is just my opinion, btw)

Since I heard that i will be called a "veteran player", i just want to state my opinion. Honestly, i just want my newbie/casual players friends to be able to enjoy fancy seasonal stuffs. I'm not bugged by TGC honestly, but i'm kinda bugged by those type of veterans. I just purchased the SoP pass and gave 2 to my friends, because i wanted them to be happy too. It just really gives me joy of seeing my new friend enjoying the TS stuff. Honestly i just want other player to be happy. So please, if you're a veteran who judges new players because of getting stuffs from TS, please just respect our times of candle running. It took us much more days than doing quests.

For people who think cosmetics are just cosmetics:

I think not. Sky is a game where we can freely express ourselves, that includes with the cosmetics we wear. If people who arent able to buy the AP would just wear the default pants, capes and everything, then imagine how bland that expression would be (or atleast I what think with the non-season cosmetics)

Like how we wear clothes in real life; we express ourselves on what we wear

There would be a line between the rich and the poor where pass holders could get any cosmetics they want while the poor sticks with what's available. It'll be easily distinguishable

Sadly, I doubt they'll change this since this has been an issue months ago, since it was still on planning stage. Now that it's in the beta game for testing, then... ehh SkyShrug stickerGloomy

Everyone enjoys the game for different reasons, but for me there’s just not that many things to do with friends...
I can talk to them... but I’m a little wary about divulging personal information or things that could reveal things about me to people online, so my conversations with most of my friends tend to be limited to sky — granted there are a couple exceptions
How much can I really talk about sky? Most of these types of conversations end for me or are limited to questions like “when did you start the game, how long have you been playing, omg I hate krills etc.. “
And sometimes they do feel redundant, I don’t play music or I get bored of playing it after a while ><

Plus most of the time when I hang out with friends in sky, it’s to do crs and the reason crs are so highly rated is because there’s something to spend the candles you’re accumulating on... at least for me..
I wish there were more things I could do with friends, like chibi races etc.. but currently other than hide and seek there’s really not much to do with friends for me in sky.

@Undertakeя.χ#2794 And the oob exploring is slowly being removed now... I can’t move tables with people on them anymore... idk even ground exploration seems to be slowly limited as more and more oobs that I liked to visit are closing

It might be time for me to really ask myself the question of whether I’m enjoying sky the way I used to or not.. or why I’m playing this game.. this has nothing to do with the ts system honestly.. I still get excited the first 10 days a new season comes out... but then I feel like I have nothing to do for the remaining 60 days in sky...

I don't get why veteran players complain about ult gifts coming back. The most important thing the game has taught us is to be helpful to others and make them happy.

I don't think doing quests is more hardwork then candle run.

As i and many others have said, cosplay and self expression are big parts of the social aspect
Being able to cosplay your ocs or your friends ocs can be one of the greatest feelings ever. Some of my favourite memories are showing off the cosplays of my sky characters to my friends

You cant fault people for wanting cosmetics, as some of the biggest reasons for wanting the cosmetics are social. You cant argue that they don’t care about the social aspect of the game when the cosmetics are a major part of the social aspect of the game

With the amount of cosmetics the game has as well, and how personalized it is, you should be able to see how cosmetics are a massive part of the game
People spend months working hard to get cosmetics because it makes them happy. Being able to see your character exactly how you envision them is an amazing feeling man
Cosmetics shape so much of the social aspect of the game. They express who we are, they add more fun, we can play around with character designs, mess around with friends, anything
Its more than just a fancy pair of pants

To me it's not a hardworking of doing quest for whatever. I feel like it's something that marks the time of how long has the player has been staying with and supporting the game. It is a form of self expression I believe.

As for in real life we have people that walked before us who have seen changes and that we look up to. Ultimate gifts from a season to me have the same meaning and it is an accomplishment only the people that walked the same road before me in sky deserve for their guidance and our similarity in having gratitude for the game. So suddenly everyone has a chance of abruptly having a seasonal item from long before makes it feels meaningless.

The deer mask to me is very prestigious and I wouldn't dare to wear one because i dont feel deserving.

genuine question, with this new system implemented, do ap owners get those items for free or do they still have to pay candles along with it or do we still not know? probably a stupid question

Touching on the bland ults idea- I don’t think they should be bland but they should be different, like instead of an orange deer with gold horns, a blue deer with silver horns looks good, but still lets OGs stay happy, giving the owl hair a different hue works too, making the ult umbrella green also works.

#

I saw the potential implementation of the pass and I'm really upset. Not everyone has the income, and the way Sky is locking cosmetics behind a paywall is encouraging a diversion between spending and non-spending players.
I understand money is important, but maybe make it so you can just access the items faster, not lock out people who spend hours getting something they missed.
The purpose of Sky is to ensure everyone is together and as a community, and this implementation will create a diversion, because whether we like it or not, cosmetics play a big part in how we express ourselves and connect to people.

I hope this isn't implemented. And I also hope the Veteran capes are changed, those look awful (no offence, but they look like they've been dipped in GW water). If the aloha cape is possible, hopefully the original beta capes can be implemented

I guess just to add, I started playing during January 2018, and i am supportive of ultimate rewards coming back —Android players didn’t have access to a number of them, for one thing. In fact when seasons were first introduced, I was initially expecting seasons would be recurring. But it only happened for Gratitude and Rhythm, since those came out in soft launch. I was expecting seasonal items to return in some form, as not everyone can dedicate that time to playing seasons all at the time

so yeah not everyone’s opinions are the same, regardless of when they started playing (I don’t really use the terms moth/veteran much, to me when someone started the game doesn’t mean their opinion is weighted differently )

I dont have ults before sanc and although i want them, i feel like bringing them back would be unfair to those who have them. they were there at the right moment so they deserve it, not others. ults are much more valuable in comparison to the other cosmetics given by seasonal spirits. but that’s just my opinion.

My general take of the "bringing ultimates back" is that it is good to allow people who had no chance of participating in any season the chance for an ultimate that they like, if they are willing to pay for it.

People who are restricted solely because they didn't own an Iphone in 2019 shouldn't be locked out of these items purely because sky didn't run on their platform/ they were unaware of sky.

That being said they could make the price of ultimates worth the amount you would have to pay to complete an entire season (75-80 dollars) so it would weed out people who really wanted those items to those who just kinda like it keeping it semi-exclusive for those who played the original season and grinded (or purchased) those seasonal candles for those

I understand that vets like to be unique but what is the difference of someone using real money to buy everything while the season ran vs someone being able to use real money post-season as long as the cost is equal SkyShrug

I do think seasonal pendants could be kept exclusive to represent the participation in that particular season but this is just one mans opinion.

spark lance
#

But new players aren't being handed the previous items for free, we are working just as hafd to be able to afford them and the constellation items. We put in our time too so we should have a fair chance. And not the game isn't just about cosmetics it's about the friendships we have made as well, but as some others have said, getting to express our skykids individuality is important. And I am sure thag if the ultimate gifts are ever brought back it will be in a way that is fair for all.
This ap locked system though is not fair and should not be implemented in live.

I understand the possible frustration from older players, and the possible reason for this new update, but as people have already mentioned, it would make candle running (a big part of the game) redundant for many players.
I believe ult items should stay locked. They show the player was there, in that season, and for paying players it's a way to show uniqueness. Re-colours that you could buy with candles would make these items less valuable, and in turn less people would end up purchasing the AP.

The current system is pretty good in my opinion. If you want an item, you work for it, and I believe its worked so far.
People that complain about not having enough candles for Ts can always buy candles to make the purchase.
I believe that if you are required to purchase the AP for certain items, the game would loose a lot of players that play daily simply for candle runs and candle farming.

Anyways, that's my opinion :')

# radiant drum Traveling spirits were never meant to be a way for players to get items for free...

Err forgive me but I beg to disagree

I've already said this before but they aren't exactly free if you spent your internet bills for data, patience, and days and weeks of free time just to get candles from "just cosmetics"

If people wanted to get candles faster for the cosmetics, there's already an option in-game for you to buy candles. Adding AP for TS just makes it harder for more people to get what they worked hard for

Plus if the target audience of the game ranges from small children, how do we expect some children to gain money for the pass?

But if Ults would return, I think it's a valid reason for TGC to make them payable with pass or something. Afterall, they're exclusive for pass holders and that's understand.

I feel like the subject of ultimates returning is quite divided in opinions. I’ve been playing since 2018, so I’ve been around for a while. And as Tracey said I did initially think seasons would return too.
I’d love to see people getting their hands on past ultimates— I feel it brings us together, that no item is truly unobtainable. Sure, how you obtain it might differ from the season itself, but ultimately you’ll have the option or not to get it. And I think that would be a wonderful thing down the line

Even if you’re just starting Sky, and you’re just discovering ultimates— every opinion is valid, no matter how “experienced” you are or not. Completely new players provide a lot of insight into stuff like ultimates that those who have played for longer “don’t have” cEllieSkyHeart

I sent in my message for all new players out there, I do hope the devs will change their minds because I don't want to see new players unable to know about TS and realizing that its little too late for them to be able to get that item because of not having the seasonal pass from Prophecy

And I also dont want them to be pressured by the need to buy the pass

Oh my godd- dudeee even though I can afford to buy ad pass I don’t like the change at ALL. Some of my friends cant get ad pass and our reason of staying without getting bored is the ts itself!

I don’t get why past members think that its unfair for them but clearly people who buy cosmetics from ts works harder than the people who bought ad pass in the past seasons😔 personally for me Im fine with people getting the cosmetics for free because thats the fun in the game. It gives you chances and excitement. Now if we get a ts that is wanted, people with no ad pass will only feel frustrated hhh 😔

What if you could chose which Ult you get when you get enough seasonal hearts to get an Ult? So those who want the past ones get them but will just have to wait another season if they really want the current one. And Vets will just be able to stay on track. Maybe that’s be cool? Idk. That way you still gotta out the work in

I started playing sky in December 2019 from Android soft launch. I'm aware of the game since January 2018. I didn't get a chance to participate in early seasons because of the platform. So it would be fair for ult gifts to come back

Many cosmetics are not AP required ? Season of prophecy has 2 free capes , hairs and I think masks ... I can’t remember.. ALL ARE FREE ... if I remember correctly? I never FAULT anyone for wanting cosmetics... please don’t put words in my mouth 😊 I said I was baffled that many are threatening TGC that they would quit sky if the new TS system is implemented as if sky doesn’t mean much to them other than cosmetics... you are all entitled to your reasoning ofc . I was just stating that sky means much more to me than cosmetics and I do love to dress up . And I certainly have seen players who look awesome with free seasonal items ...

All in all, this new TS implementation is for Beta and not live yet, a lot is meant to change. Possibly, your feedback can shape and mold the final outcome to a happy medium for everyone. Just make sure to write to #beta-feedback in order to make that difference!

Although I'm not happy with anything in the idea, I do like the fact that is full timers can have less commitment to the game and enjoy our daily lives with family after a day of working hard.

Perhaps everyone will get something they want out of this. All of your feedback matters.

I feel like I can't really give an opinion on this given I buy the pass, but I agree that the candles people farm daily is a lot of hard work for them to save for each TS stickerUmm Perhaps the system is fine as it is. As my parents say, 'why break a plate if it still works'

Still though, let's all be respectful in this channel and remember with feedback that the Devs are human too and that we shouldn't insult or be rude in feedback stickerCelebrate

TS motivates me to play longer than just doing 5 minutes daily quest. Taking that away, I don't think I would spend much time on the game.

I think the current TS system is fairly nice. I mainly think that only because everybody having a chance to get cosmetics from said specified season is a way to spread a kind of, cosmetic equality? Brings more diversity to what kind of moths you meet too pEyes

I already barely have enough money for the ad pass and a lot of my friends aren't even allowerd to buy it. I think it's extremely unfair to make the ts unavailable since it's the thing that keeps us playing the game. Everyone should have an equal chance to get the emotes and cosmetics, finding the game first shouldn't be the reason you get to have more cosmetics.

I buy the season pass not because they are exclusive, but simply to get them early. I would hope that players who spend hours running for candles are allowed equal access. Not easy, but not everyone has the opportunity to afford amazing cosmetics. As someone who loves the community, I would really hope this pass isn't implemented.
I understand Vets being unhappy, but in a sense I honestly think that if players are putting so much time and love into this game, they deserve to access these items.
As in the current system is really, just fine. Everyone deserves equal access, and if someone wants early access, they pay for it. It connects the community as a whole and everyone is happier. Why should we divide people who are willing to spend hours into this game?
In the end, they really are just cosmetics and people deserve a chance with them, since we are already working so hard for them.

#

the TS purpose is to deliver the cosmetics from past seasons to the game so that moths and the players who didnt get the cosmetics cuz of the platform or money can get these cosmetics, doing this change and binding the TS cosmetics to the pass is like forcing players to pay or lose their ability to get the thing they want, most of my friends i know cant buy the pass and the TS and collecting for its items is what keeps them and me excited to stay playing, and when you return to the truth that the candles we spend on the TS is way more expensive than the pass you will feel like you were collecting candles to earn these cosmetics, buying the pass will be just a shortcut and even if it was you will need to go on this shortcut to get what you want so basically this feature ruins the entier meaning and purpose of the TS and will make most of the players feel unfair and quit the game

To me ap are just for u to get the ults and the early access to items. Not the items as an exclusive thing. People have to wait at least 6months for a ts from the current season to return, and theyre random.

I'd say ts is the only reason i keep candlerunning and occasionally meeting new friends from that. I have a lot of candles in stock to prepare for ts. Were this system to be implemented, are my candles going to waste? Theres nothing wrong with playing for cosmetics imo..

I bet one of those things that stuck with tgc is that “less people will buy ap when they know that ts will come, free”, but the willigness of one to buy ap is independent of whether ap covers the items.
-people buy ap to get ults.. as long as ults stay locked someone will buy it.
-people buy ap to get things quicker. Im sure yall have seen those people who got the ults on the first day of the season. Same with the purchase of candle packs. People are just lazy/impatient. Most of us who have ap want to get the stuff during the season, knowing they'll eventually come back.

||I have posted my feedback uwu||
I also agree with the majority that the new TS system is not really appealing. The current TS system makes it possible for the newer players to have a chance to get the emotes or cosmetics that they want. Yeah I know that the game is about experience rather than collecting the cosmetic and emotes but it is really nice to see that the game with the current TS system is giving a chance for the newer players to get the cosmetic and emotes that they can use to express themselves. Although I joined only at the beginning of this year, I am happy to see that the friends that just can't afford AP every season or they can't pay IAP get the cosmetic they wanted from previous seasons that they couldn't join ;w;. And I am also AP holder in the live ver and haven't found any unfairness from the current TS system

yes cosmetics expresses your self but I really find the TS changes fair to the people who bought AP. You gotta support the developers, and yes that involves money. No game can survive if everything is handed out for free. Besides, correct me if I'm wrong but TS was created as a catch-up mechanic (not to be given for free, yes, even if you did candle-run).

I also agree to the people who said that there's more to sky than cosmetics its about kindness, friendship and memories you made. I just find building relationships just because you are looking cool in-game defeats the purpose of making genuine friendships. Albeit, cosmetics do indeed add more social interactions with each other, still, it doesn't mean you can't build a good relationship with one another.

Why not just not make the TS available to all but to those who bought AP will get those supposedly AP locked items for free? Whereas, those who didn't, will need to pay for the candle price. 😂

woeful dawn

I think the update would be interesting honestly.. a lot of people seem to demand a lot of Sky and for them to pander to people who can’t spend money when most games usually just outright neglect players feedback for stuff like this and have stuff be far more expensive.

I believe the original TS was here to compensate the Android players who couldn’t play. Almost every spirit has returned by now though and if the issue is you hadn’t noticed/known about sky after android than...it genuinely is something on you? And yet this still is giving a fair amount of compensation to get these items again!
Every game has items that were exclusive or limited as well, that you would’ve missed out on and have no chance to get. Seasons were originally meant to not be reran, this is nice as is?

I think this also gives MORE of a reason for people to buy the AP, because now you can also get the older seasons items instead of just waiting out for free traveling spirits. Plus at some point in sky we had no ts and all these items were passlocked, this is simply bringing it back to the way it was but with another way to get items again.

Those who couldn’t buy passes in the past, this will be similar, you’re able to get items that weren’t passlocked still. I think people are viewing this as far too “unfair” because of how kind Sky has been so far, this is still something very nice and far more kinder than simply never letting items return.

PLUS new players have had this weight on their shoulders of exclusively focusing on traveling spirits while they should be thinking of the NEWER seasons yet to come. Sure you missed some cosmetics and now they’re pass locked but there will be newer BETTER items to look forward to. You should be thinking of this more.

Once again, every game has old items people may of missed, there’s nothing much to it. Sky is already giving hefty compensation, this is just a nice way to make it seem more fair to newer and older sky players.

Do people really have the money to be spending $50+ per ultimate gift item. I'm an adult who plays sky and the pricing of the Halloween masks and Cape this year was out of reach. I'm a bit at odds over how sky wants players to remain engaged with the game when so much of the engagement is becoming transactual. This is what I don't like about the travelling spirit becoming apart of a season. I have a younger sibling who religiously plays sky, she is not of working age and spends most of the money she is given on passes and candle packs to catch up on candles she missed out. The reason why she buys the candle packs is become of her commitments to school and life. I'm worried that sky is taking advantage of younger players in this way and I believe its unethical for sky to release items and expect another transaction to receive it when these players have already dropped $30 for a season pass and own an office Cape. If sky is to bring back ultimate rewards from old seasons why can't it be an event that people can earn the items. Do they have to be the same items or slightly different to the original? I feel that charging people is becoming an easy cash grab for sky.

I have seen how some "vets" treat newer players just because they don't have certain items. i do understand that people have dedicated a lot of time to playing sky/candle running daily ect.

but someone else having the same item as you shouldn't decrease the worth, especially a digital item in a social game that provides no advantage whatsoever.

I compare it a lot to shiny pokemon in a sense it holds more value if you earn it vs buying it and other people can and will have the same thing but yours should be special for more than just "exclusivity" and "bragging rights". Those are common causes of toxicity between veterans and newer players

I agree with this statement that payers can get the AP locked items for free, and others have to pay the candle prices. For the ultimate gifts, as an AP purchaser I would be very happy for others to access them for free, as the AP for me is a means to get the items earlier and for less candles. However, I do think that the ultimate gifts should be in hearts or a new currency eg ascended hearts :>

As an AP purchaser I consider the AP early access to items than will come back later, and the quests usually only take from 10-30 mins instead of a 3 hour candle run so it is fair that the ts items should be free for everyone. I think for ultra though, they should cost either a lot of hearts/new currency as well as being purchasable as IAP, this was people who can’t afford to purchase the pass but work hard can achieve the ults, but they still keep their worth. (Also Miriam are reactions what you mean by spamming emotes? And how is slow mode not affecting you?)

Honestly, I’m just so amazed TGC-Sky is not the same with other greedy games. I just buy APs and IAPs just to support them. They also need money too. How will they be able to make newer items. I think it’s expensive to make new seasons.

#

On spamming emotes: When chat is quiet, or when people are bored/waiting for invites, it might be tempting to send a single or several emotes in chat, as a way to pass time. This usually wouldn’t be considered spamming, but when slowmode is long and there are many people in the channel, it can encourage others to do the same- resulting in an incredibly spammy chain of messages.

It might not seem like it, but there are hundreds, perhaps thousands of members watching this chat as well as your messages at any given moment. One emote might not seem like much, or 5 people sending a SkyBoogie might not be a big deal, until it’s hundreds of messages that become unstoppable. We’ve had unpleasant experiences in the past with this, including a server-wide crash- something that we just cannot let happen because of invite waves as well as the other 190k members on the server.

Because of all of this, mods and staff may delete emotes, or short messages, and ask members to stick to regular discussion. It may look harsh, but please keep in mind we only have everyone’s well-being in mind pSkyHeart

How about for example 1 ts has 2 items, the one is locked by AP, the other can be bought by regular candles. And items locked by AP shouldn’t be totally free for current AP holders so that acquiring it will not be the same with the vets who had them first.

TS items shouldn’t be locked tho?
Femur literally gave the best example earlier lol, make it normal-priced for the average player and discounted/free for AP purchasers

#

The wonderful and very unique thing about sky that really drew me to the game is that it is based of developing friendships and sharing, for prophecy i spent well over 100 dollars on gifting passes to people i met on sky who couldn't afford it.

I genuinely love meeting a new player and watching them grow and develop their own "personality" through emotes and cosmetics and helping them get enough hearts for an item they really want.

I think a lot of people have forgotten what sky is all about, as much as cosmetics are amazing and let you express yourself. The game is about meeting and befriending new people and helping one another regardless if you played since launch or started today

I think the new TS system is going to add value to those who purchased AP in the past and those who purchase it now. Most F2P games have ALL cosmetic things locked behind a paywall which TGC doesn't. Remember the devs do need to earn money somehow.

They could just make it cost more candles for F2P and make it free for pass holders SkyShrug but I have friends that will spend 20+ dollars every TS in lives current system because they are unable to dedicate enough time to candle run between their jobs.

toast: aside from the fact that you can play with friends and see them grow which is a huge part of the game what drew me in was that there was literally no paywall. This is not a competitive game so it made sense? The fact that you could get most of the cosmetics if you are just patient enough and farmed seemed awesome to me. But be that as it may in the end a game lives and dies with its longtime motivation and that's where I see the real danger here.

i think AP holder should still pay some amount of normal candles. im that kind of person who cr for candles in order to spend it once the ts arrives. let it be ts i like or not, i'll at least spend my candles on it regardless of the stated reason. if its free, what am i gonna spend my candles on? pCry I've completed all constellation two months ago anyways. (talking on behalf of a friend as well)

I really do think that the ts system should just stay the same and make the ultis not free at all but make a ts for it. imo

fathom river

and if you think about it. they were originally ap locked back in their season which is actually paid by real money. tgc is generous for giving the ts, actually giving non AP holders items that are actually free.
also remember the free spell/ trial of the halloween cosmetics giving you the idea whether to buy it or not, like bruh, if that's not generous enough

There are players who buy the AP and also buy candle packs for TS when they haven’t had enough time to CR. If AP items were discounted in TS, they might actually spend less money in game because they wouldn’t neeed as many candle packs, just one AP

I'm pretty sure sky is earning tonnes of money from their sky shop and AP which already cost a bomb, especially in countries outside the US due to the difference in currency. This new TS implementation will definitely be their downfall, I have never seen sky as a money grabber game and always admired that about them, i see this game in a new light now. 👍

I don't think there's one correct definition of what sky is all about. It can be sociailizing, music, art, or cosmetics, or all of them. Strongly agree with the notion that cosmetics are an important way of self-expression, just like how we dress irl. With more options, we can have more fun celebrating our different tastes in fashión SkyLOL . (also: please don't encouraging the spamming of reactions or threaten anybody, everyone deserves to voice their opinion 🧅 )

Ktjn actually said tgc stands to lose money because of this change, as lots of players purchase candles on top of the AP pass. I do not agree with the current idea, but I appreciate that TGC has put a lot of thought and effort in trying to make changes to the system even if it means less profit

Oh, I’ve a question I’ve been thinking of. I mentioned this in another server but is there really harm in people enjoying having exclusive items like ultimate rewards?
If people aren’t being cruel and rubbing it in your face there really shouldn’t be a reason that we should shun people for wanting to keep a nice item that they were around for?

I hope no one finds this rude but I’ve gotten comments in sky directed towards me from new players who seem to dislike the fact I have an older ult or an item that hasn’t returned? Where they’re frustrated they haven’t gotten it yet and seem to take it out negatively (mostly passive aggressively) with their comments towards me. It was surprising to experience !

At the end of the day, the most important thing that we should all remember is that, Sky is serving a bigger purpose in our lives. It teaches us about important values and life skills essential for survival in the real world.

Financial literacy.
Patience.
Valuing friendship.

I'm not a fan of this new BETA TS system either. Certainly for those who bought the pass it's cool.

But as a person who buys passes since playing/ buy the two boxes in shop, I find it unfair to the people who can't put money into video games, they got an opportunity to have Items that they dreamed of and that they had not been able to have in the previous season.

Moreover TGC will lose money many people bought candles for the TS
Either way I support TGC, but I'm against this new idea for once...stickerUmm

I’m already up working on coding homework so I mean, might as well have discord open ya know, also I totally get the feeling of wanting to have a nice item that you were around for, I feel the same way about season of lightseekers, and when the twirl emote came back I was both kinda sad, and happy that others would be able to have it. Personally, I think that if or when the ultimate gifts come back, they should have a variation in color of some kind, to make the original still stand out. Like how they did that with the beta cape and the founders cape. The beta cape is white on the inside and the founders cape is black, a perfect example of how the ultimate gifts returning could look stickerCelebrate

Not gonna lie, the idea of the new TS system kinda makes my gut sink. Like I get how some of the people here say that people should be able to enjoy a cosmetic they were there for or that you get to make friends and allat through AP but y'all gotta remember that not everyone's been around for a while and we all don't have money laying around. or we just can't buy anything online.
Honestly this hurts a lot of players who want these items that they weren't around for or couldn't afford. I really do think it'll impact a good majority of players negatively as well as tgc which is something I dont wanna see

spice mason
#

Gacha games are naturally predatory with pop ups and the like. Sky never shoves the shop option in your face. So calling it a money grabber would be a mistake. Though I will say I'd rather that the new TS system incentivised buying the adventure pass over forcing it. For example.. . Players who don't have the pass can still buy it with candles.

rugged pivot
#

I think they should still allow people who didn't have the current AP to purchase the AP-locked items with candles just like before and AP-locked items shouldn't be free at all, but rather at a discounted price only.

Umm I have a question. Is it possible to put the ap thing on ts in live version?

At least the 2nd and 4th Level of Emotes should be spared. If not then, there is no motive for me to collect Hearts.

autumn elk
#

Exclusivity can cause elitism and toxicity and it can go both ways.

I think equal opportunity is important for sky overall, so maybe if the past season ultimates come back every two seasons with a hefty price tag and at random it will allow people who earned those items in the original run to have a guaranteed 6months of being "special" and "exclusive" but it doesn't discourage newer players because they joined after the cool item that their friend from 2019 had will never come back.

and a possibility with the TS being bundled with the season pass can give benefits towards discounting the IAP for ultimates based on how many spirit trees you "complete" in that ultimates constellation further providing more value to passholders.

gentle creek
#

I do think that ult.gifts should come back someday though? Maybe as IAP or smth
Like, sure, it's special, but consider the fact that players like android users never even had access to sky when some seasons were taking place. Like iirc android sky came out on April 2020 while ios sky came out aaallll the way back in July of 2019 lol;;

mystic cloak
# copper hollow I beg to disagree just because of the TS changes Sky became a money grabber. Jus...

You have to see this in a broader perspective a percentage of the players have been playing for months and have already completed the game. They are now looking forward every 2 weeks to get the TS cosmetics which they have missed in the past. Now with the new implementation they won't be able to get the cosmetics as there's no way of purchasing the AP for past season :) also I think it was a plus that they were generous enough to make them free, but also keeping in mind that they are charging at high candle price. People who are not able to grind for that high amount of candles pay money for the cosmetics as well. Just keep that in mind.

I feel the discussion is turning in circles around the same thoughts and opinions. Instead of keeping to repeat ourselves here we should try to bring up new ideas to help TGC improve what we dislike about it now! So how about if we bring up some creative thoughts?

One I particularly liked was the idea of keeping AP-items free for AP-holders but let non-AP-players unlock those items with candles just like before! This would give AP-holders a benefit and reduce candle running stress for them, while everyone even without a pass still has a chance to get them.

We're a creative community! I think we can muster up some more ideas to provide some help! What do you think?

Paying for discounted candle for ts idea is one that I can certainly vouch for, as well as paying only for ult gifts on future ts if that happens. Furthermore, it would defnitively be more helpful if people left constructive and helpful feedback rn to explain why they feel strongly one way or the other

oh looks the everyone is mad about the TS huh ?

winged tendon

I just found out that TGC stands to lose money if they implement this update (a message from Mirian a few scrolls up), and if anything, it’s all the more reason for this TS update to not be implemented, because we want to have both an enjoyable experience and ability to support TGC. If this garners less profit for the team, then this really is a no.

I believe the main reason why people look forward to the TS is not because they couldn’t afford the cosmetics back when said TS was AP-locked during their own season, but because people haven’t even joined the game back then. A lot of us only joined recently and thus missed past seasonal spirits, and the current TS system is already a fair way to get the cosmetics to return imo. Hope they change their mind about the TS update.

placid linden
#

In my opinion, this TS change is a huge mistake and a clear power move from TGC. The TS were a great incentive for F2P players to play on a daily basis and keep an active and healthy Sky population.....What a way of taking away a beacon of hope from players who can't or don't participate in IAP. In the long run, I believe this will affect active playerbase and people will not bother playing Sky for multiple weeks or months.

I think color variations for the ultimate gifts are the way to go. Like having silver horns on the deer mask instead of golden ones, a different design on top of the lightseekers ultimate umbrella, silver triangles on the rhythm mask instead of gold, perhaps a cosmic manta cape instead of a normal manta cape 👀 (not sure about the bonfire yet since it’s technically a spell too) not only would it keep the originals, original, and let newer players get the items they really want, but older players might even get the variation versions of the ultimate gifts too if they like the color changes :> overall I think it would be a win for both the company, and all players involved. Again going back to how the beta and founders cape works. The beta players were given a special cape exclusive to those who played the old beta. That item is now available in the game, but it’s a variation of it, to differentiate between the two. Tgc has done it before, I don’t see why they couldn’t do something similar for the ultimate gifts 😄 obviously it would be in app purchase lol, maybe around the same price of the founders cape but only be available a certain times. I know the conversation has moved on but still

Same thought also

My thoughts of this and this is my copy paste of a comment I did from a yt about this haha

Lets be honest here.
hope this doesn't come live to the official sky game. It isn't highly fair for others who worked hard on running the map almost everyday to get something from a traveling spirit since they can't afford paying a season pass from each seasons.

I would suggest better if,
IF a ultimate gift spirit, like mister hoot or enchantment sama, will come back as traveling spirit, then that's is more reasonable for us a need to have a seasonl pass. Since alot of people or some, payed a seasonal pass to get the ultimate gift soon as possible and for fair use also.

Just my words idk if others will agree

Honestly, candle running for hours is what makes this game for me. I meet with friends, we do our run together and enjoy some quality time with each others. Why would I want to make the candle run obsolete? It's what ties us together and gives us a uniform aim. Not to mention the soothing quality of running all the realms flying and taking in the mood of the game!

Ah well, theres also the issue of
Money, and the fact that android players literally could not join a whole 4 seasons

Candle running for TS is still, no matter what anyone says, one of the main driving factors of why we stay. Making it obsolete for f2p is.....a bad idea.

Also, im sure a lot of us have already sent feedback. No need for so many reminders <3

#

you also have to remember that a sizable chunk of the community couldnt have even played past seasons if they wanted to, traveling spirits have been a great way for andriod players to get most of the stuff they missed out on. and putting that behind the season pass again just didnt sit right with me. maybe if it ends up just being slightly cheaper, so theres an incentive to get the ap for ts

and on the topic of ult gifts. yeah there should be some way for those to be available again, android players werent able to access the game until season of enchantment, and switch onlys are going to be 7+ seasons behind

The issue is that some people enjoy candle runs and others hate them. TGC cant make everyone happy.

Gatekeeping in-game items is never a good look. I understand that the items (Ult gifts) were released quite a long time ago and that it's very special, but please consider the fact that, once again, users like Android users never had the chance to get them?? And giving new players/players who missed the chance to get their dream item another chance is always a welcome idea.
Maybe they could add some sort of pass-oriented system, or make the ult gifts obtainable through IAP by meeting certain requirements or smth?

#

The whole purpose of the AP is to get access to Ultimate Gifts. Anything else, the bonus was collecting other cosmetics from the seasonsal spirits along the way. If they AP lock TS spirits, what's even the point of playing as a free player? To get 2 emotes, 2 spells and a heart every 2 weeks? While a Season takes place and you purchase the AP, all you really need to do is collect the daily seasonal candles and you're 100% sure of getting all the cosmetics + ultimate gifts....heck you'll even get extra candles by the end of the Season!! Whereas if you are a F2P player you have to gather ATLEAST 150 candles / 15 hearts every 2 weeks to get a chance of being able to afford the upcoming TS. What requires more play time in your opinion? What does TGC value more, people who play the game or people who pay for exclusive content? I guess it's a game of equilibrium...Although this decision seems to be inclining the balance on a certain side...

• NON AP HOLDER – Still able to purchase the AP-locked items with regular candles.

• AP HOLDER – Gets discounts only, NOT FREE.

• ULTIMATE GIFTS – For players who discovered the game late, sorry. But let the veterans have it. There are far more greater things ahead.

I think this will solve the chaos.

ok here is my idea on what is going on with whole TS system even tho ım late oooff: Now the debate is endless since both sides has their rights .Of course people who had bought the pass can agree since they actually paid real money and may think it is unfair because everyone else can get other cosmetics as TS for free . While people who didn't buy the pass/bought late/missed the season can disagree because it is their only option to get the cosmetics . Now if TGC really brings this update to game , I think other than not getting cosmetics many people will feel extreamly unmotivated to candle run and I fear some may quit the game . Of course most of us play for the fun but we all also play for the cosmetics too .I have fun with my friends everyday because we all candle run together and we have a reason to candle run . I also think it would unfair to link the TS to the pass because I have always seen sky as a game where everyone can be equal (of course ultimite gift is something else I want to regard it as a reward of hard work ) I just hope TGC finds a better solution that will make everyone happy (also ı hope ı didnt offend anyone I just want everyone to be happy and enjoy sky ; w ;

Its not Android players fault just because you use an iPhone and have a chance to play game first. Spirit comeback to give all players who missed have a chance to enjoy game. The ultimate gifts is not exclusive items, you buy adventure pass to got the ultimate gifts not the spirit.

I understand we need pay our bill, TGC need to pay their bill too. So I understand why they do that but not all players is old enough or rich enough to have money I have a friend who just 14 years old and can play Sky once a month because her school policy.

I really don't know if I shoulf think about current ts system as positive or negative, because candle run tought me so many lessons that even school couldn't, I am very careless person and often get bored of things quickly candle run for ts is teaching me self-discipline and consistency for even if your are bored, you have to do some effort no matter how little to get something in return, so I really enjoy candle run especially for ts with friends it's always more fun, doing candle run do feel grindy and a lot of work but in the end everyone can agree that it is always worth doing these runs and that makes us feel proud of ourselves and happy about it, I really appreciate how this game is made and communication in it, I just hope Tgc can find better solution.

...idk i think ult gifts should be paid for. Like, have the current seasonal pass. Or pay additional 10 bucks.

Yes... 10 bucks can be a lot (even if some cosmetics like bat cape cost 10 or more) and yes. A lot of people are minors and cant pay (just like me lol,i cant pay). So what? They cant pay but they couldnt have payed if they got the game during the old seasons either.
So i think they should be bougjt with real money if they really need to come back.

I lowkey think they shouldnt come back at all. like demigodMe said some messages above me. But idk I know a lot of you all think its unfair and you have a point so im going to be unbiased (i guess not everyone gets satisfied with the current cosmetics they have, unlike me, and thats completely valid)

"people who discoved the game too late" oh what a nice way to welcome new players AND people who aren't interested in overpriced phones like ios pPopcorn
my suggestion is to put Ultimates behind AP (and maybe a quest to get them) and that's more than fair, since we candle run like crazy to get TS stuff

"veterans want to be exclusive" so you are not ashamed of admitting that you just want to flex hard and create castes between players lol

This TS update is damaging, some players can save up irl money and buy passes but for people outside of America like me the AP are unaffordable because the translation to my country's currency makes the price 5 times higher. This game has given me many good memories with friends and we do candle runs but what's the point if I can't even hope to afford pay actual money. The current system is fair as it is and it has pushed me to play more sky, I have a daily goal to collect 10 candles a day for traveling spirits, but all of that will have no use now.

hhh lemme share my opinion about the TS change (WARNING = BROKEN GRAMMARS LOL)

positive = it is looked fine tho, we can save some spare candles for other like, the locked part is already free, and also there are lots of veterans from gratitude, and other season that possible to be called as veteran buying AP to complete buying the cosmetics, then their effort can gone to waste once the spirit became a TS and experienced players have it without wasting their money like stuff

negative = the locked part is free but lets be honest, not everyone can use their currency (dollars, etc.) for a game, but they can use IG currency, maybe bc of too young or just cant afford it, also im not an American or live in America which means the price of the AP is almost too expensive, for individuals or even package for a friend

ok thats it, sorry weird opinion and broken grammars and dont attack me please SkyRespect

these cycles are for the best pSkyHeart before when it would be 6+months before invites, ktjn said out of 35 thousand invited players there was only about 50 active daily users. (#beta-discussion message)

this new cycle allows for higher participation and testing, which is better for the Live game! sConfetti

Its also a good reminder for all of us that this environment is a testing zone and not to get attached to your beta skykiddo.

I really like the idea that old items become “free for all” and I personally hope it stays that way, some players really can’t afford a pass every season. That being said tho, I respect and understand tgc’s decision to lock certain items with ap, they are a business after all
Plus, those items required a pass when they were first released, it’s lucky that we were able to buy them without for the past few months

I would like to propose some alternatives here for consideration,

  1. Items remains the same price while allowing pass holders to buy them at a discounted price;
  2. Certain items are only for pass holders, but non current pass holders can buy them as well. (Meaning as long as you can afford one pass, you can eventually get all seasonal items);
  3. Remove the whole ts system, but have a past season running simultaneously with the current one, with ap for the 2 being sold separately

well, I am still worried about it so imma talk about it. Why would they put the AP lock in beta if they hadn't been planing to put in in live. It makes no sense, like the passes are unique for each season, and makes the game p2p even more. I get these are only the cosmetics, I understand the pain when you are no longer exclusive and all, but TS's were good, because now when you choose not to pay you had a chance, and because you had to work hard for it it was ok

I feel like it is kinda fair, being exclusive and all but It just makes the game p2p and it was not about it, was it? Its a unique hangout with ur friends, no adds and stuff, but.. I don't like p2p games, k? I understand that they need income but this miiiight be getting out of hand...?
at least its not p2w. Yet.

I really love this game and I have been playing since it became live on but if they put passes on traveling spirits I won’t have a purpose to play this game anymore
I can’t buy seasonal pass all the time ,dollar is expensive where I live( I buy season pass time to time )
But if they put season pass locks to ts I don’t see the purpose of doing candle runs and playing the game (I play alone most of the time so no friend group that I play with) it makes me really sad and I know tgc needs money so there is not much I can do just feel sad

I was a beta player last season and didn't delete the app (I still have my progress). I clicked the link and it doesn't take me to the page with the blue "I'm a tester" button, but straight to play store and there was just the Open/Uninstall button. Does that mean I'm a beta player for the next season? T-T

The devs need to change the TS meta, this is definetely just a move for money, this is a straight forward slap against non AP holders, this wont aid at all, this movement is just for money, you're just making things harder in sky

Which at some degree i can understand but its unacceptable they are messing out the only chance for getting items that required AP

Also makes CR useless since without a AP u cant get most cosmetics

Also increase on prices?

This move is just to earn money noy improving the user's experience

This is a dirty move TGC, you're ruining your own game

I'll make it clear, this cant get into live. Unless you want to be seen as money hungry company than the devs we respect and admire.

This proves that indeed, the comunity shall be divided among ones with common sense and the ones who will defend TGC to their death

To people who are arguing about the AP TS update recently:
A lot of people in the past was furious about this but please understand. TGC is doing this because the new players are not able to save up enough for the ts making it hard for them TGC is making it easy for some players so they can at least have some items. Not having everything is not so bad either at least you get to see the ts again SkyTada
Please so respect TGC's choice if this made it in live and don't ruin the app because of just one small thing in the gameSkyPray
(I had to wait for slowdown people were argueing about this earlier)

I'm just concerning about the weeks of season break, like, you have to pre order a product that you didn't even know it's going to be cool for you only to get your favorite ts itens? TGC make teasers and announcments but still, it's concerning pEyes

# maiden minnow TGC said back then that they're actually gonna earn less money from this move. M...

I don’t understand the sense you’re applying for this? This move will either force people to spend money or mostly just quit. TGC should’ve taken into account their vast demographic.
Because

  1. People from all over the world play the game, and all of them have different currencies whose exchange rates from US dollars depends completely on however their own government and economy is.
    And 2. Huge percentage of players are in school, minors or in college and not yet earning yet.

Don’t get me wrong. I love and respect what the devs and artists have done for us. This is really my opinion and my understanding. When I joined the game and slowly learned the TS system and the past seasons, I legit thought it was A GENIUS CONCEPT for newcomers. This new system is so unfair, I can’t even - SkyNoThanks

there’s a 15 min cool down so excuse the cold ping.

Please refrain from using negative emotes on someone else’s messages, regular members or moderators alike. It comes off as rude and dismissive, and while slowmode is long, taking the time to explain why you disagree is a much better way to express yourself. Continuous toxic behavior will result in a mute

the main purpose of beta testing is to give constructive feedback on the game's updates and progress, you don't have to worry about not being able to purchase anything in the beta app. besides not everything from beta will apply to the live version, please don't jump onto conclusions so suddenly SkyHeadpat

Buying candles is a lot more expensive than a season pass. I'm a student who has no means to spend money online easily, but I still managed to find a way to get my pass. (Shoutout to my college friend, hehehe~)
Although, I do agree that the season pass LOCK isn't the best move/choice.

An idea me and my friends have been bouncing around is having the pass give a discount instead.
So, a season-locked TS item without the pass would be 100 candles, with the pass it would be 50.
This is just my idea though, I'm wondering what you guys thing.

PLEASE write a review in #beta-feedback

before the new invite waves me and some other people were throwing around the idea that if you had the AP you got the item for free, while people without the pass would pay 50/65/whatever candles for it, seems fair no?

The devs do listen to every single feedback there, but please keep in mind there are both positive and negative feedback regarding every change. It’s important to share your personal opinion with them if you feel strongly about it, as they will consider it, but please don’t see it as “if people complain they will change it”. They have all the feedback as well as their own intentions and vision for the game when making these decisions

NOOO I WAS IN CLASS I MISS BETA INVITES AGAIN- 3 times pCry

Yup, the discounted candle idea seems like a win-win situation to me. As some players were stating that cr was tedious, those individuals can save time by purchasing the discount. As a result, they do not have to spend as much time candle-running. At the same time, players who are F2P can still obtain the items from ts. They will have to spend more time collecting candles. SkyYay SkyHighFive edit: im glad that it is being tested in beta first to see the feedback from players : )

I really see the point of us testing the new traveling spirit system but I think most of beta testers played the Sanctuary Season so bringing two spirtis from such a recent season is not a very good idea....most of beta testers won't have the chance of getting anything from the next two traveling spirits in test because they're from a recent season...I think it would be better for feedback if the next traveling spirits in test were TS that never came before so TGC would get the most of beta testers feedback from this huge change in TS System!

Wait a sec. I tried going back to the TS in beta right now, the left side of the spirit tree is free. Everything else needs candles.

This doesn't actually serve the purpose of TS.. don't you think? because android players missed almost two seasons and F2p players and newly joining players will only face a disadvantage..but then it's fair for vets

The vets probably have most of the TS anyways. I think they’re trying to put more importance on APs.

Yeah, plus this people quitting will make a butterfly effect, since 1 of the reasons the people play is because of their friends, if they quit, a butterfly effect will happen, I think everyone respects TGC thinking logic, since yea, it's stressfull to play the game 2-3 hours in a day only to get candles for your favorite cosmetics. I just don't know if the community can change something about this, since they're working soo hard on those mechanics only to dump everything on the trash.

There's a lot of gaps in those mechanics we need to think, like:

-"I buyed the season pass in that season, but the rules say I need to have the on going AP" is something i think is not fair

  • From this recent TS we could have (karate dance spirit) we could see the fair changes, still a lot of candles are need to be used in this TS (oof)
  • The preorder thing i said earlier, even that beta exists and spoilers and stuff, it still a pre-order of something you don't know you're going to like it, only making you panic about that and get your favorite ts itens betweeen season breaks.

I would support this mechanic but I'm scared of the butterfly effect mentioned before, and still have one more thing, what will happen with the other ts that already came for free, for the future players will be paid as well? this isn't fair.
