So I'm simply not understanding the reasoning behind ramping up the difficulty this much, and I'm hoping someone can make sense of it for me from a business perspective. How is this going to encourage people to buy more pots/gems, exactly? To have such a jarring discrepancy across the two halves is only going to piss people off and encourage them to sit out - it's incredibly unsubtle. Was the first half just a little treat to pacify the boycotters?
