Why all the trend towards single player?

I believe that making event quests/adventures limited gem items might be going too far as it requires players to repeatedly make purchases during an event. However, making an event have a gem buy-in to simply get started or beyond a very early gateway might be a viable way to make money.

However, doing something like this opens a certain pandora's box in that each and every player who pays to participate in this manner will likely have a higher expectation of the event itself. Changes midstream, failed removal scripts, etc are things that would be highly flammable topics when the entire participating population in an event is composed of those who wanted it badly enough to pay for it. And rightly so.

With adequate planning and good execution I'd be in favor of such a model.

my point being is that players that are die hard free players complain a lot about not getting everything available. believe me I was one of those players. but after a while I cowboy'd up and bought some gems and since then have had no issue with any event

Agreed.

Witch of the Swamp dropped a potential of 100 eggs (28.04% of the time) and was available in the shop for 95 frags. 8 minutes to complete from the time the generals land.
