Okay, hear me out. I know I said I wasn't going to buy Hello Kitty Island's new expansion, City Town, because it costs more than Wheatflour Wonderland, until it went on sale, but I've done some serious thinking in the meantime, and I feel in the current cozy game market, Hello Kitty Island Adventure is still significantly more honest, upfront, and reasonably priced than other cozy games being pushed right now. Sure, there are a lot of free to play games coming out, but listen, the games run on servers, and servers cost money, so they'll get the money out of you one way or another, and I feel that HKIA's competitors are doing so much more deviously. I feel more comfortable giving my money to Sunblink for solid expansions full of content and costumes, then getting individual outfits sold to me in lucky boxes or whatever. I still feel that Sunblink is being honest and fair, and they have yet to introduce gambling mechanics and predatory microtransactions.
Could they potentially turn around and introduce gambling mechanics and predatory microtransactions? Of course, we're in the worst possible timeline. Everything horrible that can happen, is happening. But I don't feel that Sunblink has reached that point yet. Yes, they said they were going to introduce smaller content packs this summer, but I'm not going to judge them until they're out. I only have a few months to wait. In the meantime, I'll check out City Town, and judge it on it's own merits.
