Is it possible to get a little feedback on the post relic launch reaction?

I genuinely would love to hear from CG. Not complaining or celebrating relics. Just curious to know what they think?
Did you expect this level of strong reaction?
Seeing that some of the damage boosts seem to outweigh the health / protection boosts, are there other balancing mechanics I'm missing that prevent future battles from being simply who can one-shot the other guy first?
The power surge does genuinely seem huge and really surprising. Any words to frame it in a context that makes it more understandable?
It seems like it would be incredibly daunting for a new player to join the game right now. Unless you're wrapping everything up I'd expect an influx of players when the movie comes out. How on earth are you going to allow them to feel they could compete and contribute at any reasonable level within a year?
Cheers

I think they are not responding on purpose. They are not going to risk fanning the flames. Notice even the moderators aren't commenting on these posts? That's rare. That's weird. That was probably an order not to.
They are waiting till we cool off.
I'm starting to think the new guy with no connection to the community ran this through and I don't think he will be too community friendly going forward.
They’ve never commented on customer feedback because players overreact on everything every few days
Last time they did reply to the outrage they got tons of negativity
They over tuned how much gear you need for the relic parts further upping the gear bottleneck that has been tightening more and more over the last couple months.
The only viable thing they can do is finally create a better income of old bottle neck gear required to get to G12.
However their best bet is to act sooner than later as more krakens invest their money. The blow back from waiting for such a major roll back or change will cost them ALOT of money
Krakens don't outrage, they just pay ) And that's a huge problem for the game cuz 1% krakens give them 99% revenue - so they don't care about f2p
I guess they only "play" test accounts with unlimited resources, if they had real accounts we would have know that
If they aren’t going to scrap or redo the whole thing, I don’t see much value in a statement. There wouldn’t be anything they could say that would make anybody happy and it would just cause more complaints about how they’re “not listening to the community.”
Have they ever listened I've seen many people moan but nothing done I've stopped caring anymore I'm just doing the game at my pace an what I want I find the more it bothers you the bitter you get grab your CUP an gear him up it may be irrelevant but you will have the best CUP ever
The relics we are seeing added right now, all have the same theme of being weapons. This makes damage being the primary boost, make sense.
It is possible we will see others that do the same for health/protection or other stats in a more significant way.
New players are in their own shards and do not compete with older players, unless they are putting themselves in particular situations intentionally.
They can contribute, at the same level as every other player that will be joining at that time.
They have also spoken to some extent about changes that they are looking at making regarding gear influx. We will have to wait and see how that rolls out.

When you say that do you mean, possible for the same character to receive multiple relics? Wouldn’t that just be yet another paywall, and cause even more backlash? Don’t let them do that lol
They replied pretty quickly to the Jawa vs Geo feedback, and even made a quick change regarding the Bossk/Jawa interaction.
The part about getting outrage to their replies is spot on though lol. They really can't win.
Even though one of the biggest posts about relics is by...a kraken lol
So when this huge widening of the gap between ftp and p2p came about, it seemed confusing, because you would essentially have 2 isolated groups, and the p2p wouldn't have the same relative advantage. (They would, but it wouldn't be as visible).
I suddenly realized what is really happening with this. They are now separating the whales from the krakens, and ftp are totally left behind. Now whales will fill the role of the players that the krakens can lorde their power over.
This is not true. Young Han Solo, for example, has his bronze dice as his artifact.
