Free Game :: Free Items :: Mafia Wars
Disclaimer: Personal suggestion, no attacks being made on any company out there.
I’ve never seen nothing like this in my life, if you have a free game, and a long time developer myself sees stuff like this is a HUGE turn-off…
I would HIGHLY suggest that Zynga not do something like this at all nor any other gaming company out there. Which they have been in business for two years now and this here really ruins a reputation… Sort of like Evony did for me with their “spamming” of non-stop system emails to us that have nothing to do with the game, just to make the $$$
You all know as much as I do in Facebook, the game is pretty addicting, and with such a great game we all know they are making bank off it as for however many people they have playing online inside Facebook alone, so this is what I call a HUGE NO NO as in-game marketing.
Moral or Suggestion for Zynga and Other Gaming Companies
Once you have one link that goes to the Grandfather inside the game, there is NO need to rubbing it in about “Tired of using energy to get Loot Drops” to get the consumable items to advance. Just not a pleasant thing to see on the gamer end…
