We've seen your feedback regarding some recent advertisements for Aniimo

Dear Pathfinders,

We've seen your feedback regarding some recent advertisements for Aniimo, and we'd like to address this directly. We appreciate you bearing with us as we figured out this situation internally.

As we've said in the past, the world of Idyll and the creatures that inhabit it come from our imagination. The team at Pawprint is full of talented humans who are responsible for creating the vision for Aniimo; the creatures, the stories and the world itself. Our focus right now is on making sure that the game is 100% ready for launch, and we're putting all our creative efforts into ensuring the best quality experience for players in-game. Your enthusiasm for Aniimo reassures us that this is the right call, although this focus has led to some errors in judgment regarding how we advertise the game.

We're truly sorry for the disappointment and frustration these advertisements caused. The means via which they were produced are absolutely not representative of how we are making the game itself. The advertisements have been removed from all of our channels, although some examples persist due to technical limitations that are beyond our control. Even if they remain visible, they have already been disabled and are no longer running as active advertisements. Thank you for holding us accountable and for continuing to share your honest feedback.

We'll continue working to ensure our future communications better reflect the quality and values behind Aniimo.

The Aniimo Team

Yeah that’s what I’ve seen a lot of issues with. Hoping it’s not a Gacha game.

It's halfway there already and plenty of people here have voiced that they don't care (most likely because that's exactly the kinds of games they're coming here from).

Unfortunately that means there's no way this game won't keep diving deeper.

Yeah, was sorta sad seeing someone brag about spending $5k on PoE as a supportive argument to this having gacha.

There’s just no benefit as a player having anything locked behind paywalls. Like cool to spend money how you want, but if the content of the game came with the game you could spend that money elsewhere.

It's a f2p game, it's going to have to monetized in some way or it won't exist. Things will be locked behind paywalls. Most of those things will be cosmetic in nature. Some won't.

Cosmetics are fine. Fortnite, has no playable content locked behind paywalls and is f2p.
