i'm rlly happy abt this update and how the sights are all treasure (getting gems isn't hard, but i'd rather save them when treasure is easier to get...)
but tbh it just feels like a damned if they do, damned if they don't situation for the site staff :/
(also why ppl are blocking each other over this...uhhh i don't understand why but You Do You)

a lot of ppl seem salty abt this update (which i think is fair but at the same time nobody forced you to but scattersights...like tht was a personal choice/investment)
[/quote]
I wouldn't say salty, more like "lead on for a long time and now are being treated like bad guys for being upset"

i know a lot of ppl have been up-in-arms over the eyes issue, but i've only ever seen said ppl get referred to in a negative way if they're the ones tht always complain abt it?

This may be a hot take. But if you want the "challenge" of hatching your G1 Primal. Go ahead?
No one's making you buy the new vials. Not to mention Primal's pretty steep to buy and throw on everything. Not to mention it's in the treasure mp, so prepare for rarity and snipers. So? Honestly? I think once the market properly stabilizes. G1 Primals will still be there (and only a touch more common than they were before).
It's like saying Tricolor Scatter scrolls would ruin the G1 market. They clearly never did, because no one's going to drop multiple 350g on top of a G1 egg they bought.
So I suspect saying that buying Primal vials "ruins" the G1 market is pretty similar to saying that the existence of scatterscrolls "ruins" the G1 market.

The problem with the Vials of Scattersight is the hard reality you could need [s]an infinite amount*[/s] a very high number of vials (and clicks) to get the desired eye on your dragon(s). That's frustrating, stressful, and not fun. If we had to go back and make the choice again, we wouldn't release the item.
Galore did present a way for us to find a compromise on natural eye type implementation. We agree with you, this could have been implemented better and we're working on that.

It's been known that they were actively working on it for at least two years per public statement in various threads requesting that eye types be released as a vial OR to un-retire eye scatters and make them readily available.

I could have sworn there was a more recent suggestions thread locked on the basis of 'the mechanic won't change' - the original posts in regards to it I remember. But thanks :3
This makes the whole thing eeeeextra complicated if the "best" example we have is 2yo though. I guess just anyone who bought stuff in the last few months then? xD
Edit: for thr record, once again, I spent nothing - I pretty much ignored the eyes thing entirely but I just feel bad for people's irl $.

I chose to go with the statement that went the furthest back, closest to when the eyes were first released, to show how quickly they saw community feedback and stated they were working on a way to fix it that would (hopefully) make everyone happy. It shows that they have been actively working on it as opposed to ignoring community feedback or pulling it out of nowhere.
As for that thread that got locked, I remember seeing it. I do not recall them mentioning the mechanic will not change, but they did have to close it down for similar reasons as to why this one most likely will--the sheer toxicity of the community on both sides and breaking TOS.
That aside, welcome! Happy to help, haha.

The real question is why is this update worded like the original update came out last week?
Did it really take the staff three years to realise they made an uh-oh? It's not like they had to reprogram the whole site to make this change so why wait this long. I think we at least deserve a real explanation for this.

Yeah, but it's pointless now. Before it's fun because we can't obtain one any other way than buying, but now we can just pluck vials from the marketplace

i just want to point out that some people aren't upset because they have or have used scattersights! sometimes updates just ruin the fun for some people. not all the backlash is money related.

yep, never used/bought a scattersight before
