I never spent money on FT2 as i'm againist to the freemium trend. But i already bought some exclusive stuff by watching adverts. It may sound boring to watch 75 commericals but if you do it while watching TV or doing some other stuff, you won't even realize when you already got enough. wink

Hello erindors. Just to clarify, the update for Fish Tycoon 2 is a free download. smile

Yes I should have said ,I know it's a free download but,when it is downloaded we still have to PAY 150 GEMS to repair the vending machine.that is what I meant.if it had been coins we could have sold some fish to pay for it instead of cash,which being a 75yr old pensioner I don't have a lot of.and as for watching the ads to get gems I'm afraid I keep falling asleep watching them lol.so as you can see it would take me forever to get the gems I needed,by the way I do love your games I have them all but it was my family who paid for them for me,so I don't like to ask them to pay for the gems as well,

I understand you frown

But this is how they earn their lives, i mean, they have to make money from games so they may keep buying food, clothes etc.
I wish everything was more simple frown

Well, i'm personally not very happy with the new free-to-play thing, like you, as well as a notable amount of fanbase as i see.

And i believe LDW people are also unhappy to do this work in that way. Because i know they do it with love.
But New trend probably doesn't allow them to use creativity fully and properly.
And they have to follow New trend to survive. frown

I really miss back when casual games were actually good.
Here's a great article about it; https://goo.gl/KZ4UnX
There was also a South Park episode about it, titled "freemium isn't free"

Well I guess we are fighting a losing battle against the past and the future of how games are made as computer games are things of the past and it's more games for the iPhone etc,if so I for one will not be getting any more as I just cannot afford it,which is a shame because ,I have been with them for years and I really loved the LDW games so I will have to look for another place to get my games from .
