I would be really keen to see some sort of real life collection cards related to the game. This game has a nice character design/sketchy style and seems to have lots of love in term of art, could we extend this love to a new level?
Some merchandise could intrigue additional fans interested in collectible cards like Magic the Gathering, add a more real collection, and one day when this game will be history, you will still own some memories.
I suggest:
- cards you buy for money or gems like special pets already sold as virtual model and retain their value with a color scheme, silver card, gold card… depend how executed it would bring an additional fan base, good set of merchandising, new marketing experiments and possibly additional revenue for the gem shop
- cards you can earn in game, card to top achievements like world completion, legendary item card upon a legendary completion in game, and anything that really needs lot of efforts to complete, it’s not giving any advantage but a solid art piece of that legendary item you earned printed in high quality thick paper and signed
Create a separate system for it, to collect them as virtual card, and when a player reach a certain number of card collected
- like 10 for cards bought in store
- like 1 for card earned
they can manage the card fill an online form for delivery (possibly we pay the delivery, so less cost for anet other than storage/packing, easier for them to do), and the cards “possibly signed by the artists (obviously printed signature)” will be delivered.
Franckly I’m a casual player with very little time, pro designer with over a decade experience and ex-MtG player so the below would be an additional point for me to care more about getting a legendary item or any other difficult achievement over time.
