THREADSTOPPER: WHY BLUE ESSENCE FEELS LIKE CRAP; PLAIN AND SIMPLE
Old system: You played a game. Thanks for playing! Here's a bit of currency to spend on something nice in the future.
Old reaction: Bruh you gave me 51 IP. That's fucking tiny. But okay fine no problem, I'll just grind.
New system: WOAH DUDE YOU LEVELED UP! HERE'S AN AWESOME CHAMPION SHARD FOR YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS! AND IT'S WORTH MORE THAN 51 IP THIS TIME WE PROMISE! :D
New reaction: Oh, that's pretty coo--wait how do I redeem it? I don't have any spare blue essence.
New system: YOU HAVE TO BURN ALL OF YOUR OTHER HARD EARNED REWARDS :D
:D
