As for the yocash items, yocash is what generates their revenue, so I can understand asking more of a premium on some of those items. One does not need to get one in every color. Simply choose one or two you like the best and get them. If you look at the 19yocash Medusa Costume, you are getting a lot with that 19 yocash. Granted, it is not interchangeable which turns some off, but you're getting a hair, a hat, eyes and lips which would all normally be yocash under Zynga. Hair alone would have been 18 yocash. I don't know how many times I've seen players say to release one piece costumes again like they did in 08 and even exclaimed they would be willing to pay yocash for them... Well, here they have done just that and people aren't happy.

I myself enjoy mixing and matching items so single pieces are more my forte, I might pick up the Medusa anyway because it's a loud piece and I might enjoy having it in the future. I don't mind paying the 19 yocash for it because I see what it includes.

So, while I see your point, I can also see where BVG is coming from. Give them some time to get their feet planted solidly on the ground... In time, I think you will see it will even itself out. But you also have to be willing to have an open mind. When we fought for this game to saved, we had to learn to accept whatever that might mean. A different company means different policies. We will all learn to accept the new norm, we just have to be patient on the path there! :)

I liked the Hulk and bought myself it. I didnt like the look of the medusa lady myself and the willy wonka looks poorly drawn to me so I dont want that. I bought a Cthulhu cos i thought it was cool. I just want to see other things myself as the frozen things do nothing for me. So while I wait I only want some ways to earn coins that dont involve me dismantling my rooms.

The Hulk was pretty interesting. :lol: Everyone will have different likes and dislikes though so I hope they continue to release something for everyone's taste. They will get better I'm sure, they're just getting started. The frozen theme doesn't do much for me either, but I did get some pieces to make work with other items in my inventory. The Wonka was made back in 08/09 right? It seems to have the same quality of the original 08 costumes. And Yes those Cthulhu are cute, but I am not much of a Yober person so I passed over those.

I do hope they come up with more ways to earn coins though, aside from hoping to get people to buy them. I really don't see many players turning to the purchase of yocoins IMO.

It is difficult to make coins now compared to the past, due to not having free gifts or other reliable ways besides the factory. But I think this game is all about being savvy and understanding economics really. It can be difficult to get in the big leagues when it comes to coins, but its doable if you strategize. I also think they are still testing prices and getting the hang of running our game. I'm glad they kept us open and it will become easier over time! :)
