It is called ** Legal gambling ** , you are getting something for your money ,,
It might not be what you want , but thats the gamble isnt it ,,,,
It is not a Lottery , where you either win or Lose , With Shards you WIN ,,,
you can get a rock (common), a Lump of coal,(uncommon) a Piece of Lead ,(rare) a Gold bar(Epic) , or a rare Diamond ( Legendary) .. and even these have Duds and Specials
P.S. THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS !!
P.P.S. there is not one game worth anything that is not better when you PUT CASH INTO IT
P.P.P.S. all games have a Shelf life ,,, Most are Lucky to see 5 years before the Devs just put them out to pasture and Milk what ever they can get from them ...... ( there are exceptions)
P.P.P.P.S. ,, we are NOT Hellhades, Ash or Ayumi love who can either aspend 10s of Thousands of $$$$$$$$$ on a game , or Just go into the Code and Build your own heros any way we want too ....
Oh to be a DEV and load up 10 Legos with lvl 16 GOD GEARS and walk through all the Dungeons without a scratch ,, but then thats kinds Boring after the first or 2nd time through
