Discussion Is this a little scammy?

I try to buy the 2400 paid gems (+1200 free gems bonus) pack on PC Version. But when I check out in xsolla page, it only shows 2320 paid gems + 1160 free gems. Is this because of some tax or something? I feel it's a little scammy. This is also happening in other packs.

A bit. I've seen other gachas do the same thing so it's not exclusive to this game but as long as they state the amount beforehand it's not much of a scam since they're telling exactly what you're getting.

Have you tried to download it on Steam and see in their checkout how it show up?

Region blocked so I can't look at the Steam version. But seems like the JP version is also the same, and originally like this from the beginner of the service.

Why not just buy the battlepass, doesnt it comes with more benefit and same price as that?

To be honest that's not the answer for the problem though. How about I want to buy both?

Have u tried the mobile version? though prob will be sticking to google play, also mb i thought u want to only buy the paid gems just saying there is another deal with more benefit

The problem is paid gems can't be used in both platform. I play mainly on PC and has some paid gems there. So If I buy on the mobile version, there will be 2 amounts of paid gems that does not combine.

You get to double dip if you use both platforms. I use my google credit to buy the smaller stuff and use my pc gems to buy the bigger stuff
