As the gaming community gears up for the launch of Season 1 of ‘Marvel Rivals’, discussions surrounding the mechanics of battle passes take center stage. Players are facing uncertainties regarding which tokens they will retain and which will be reset with the new season. According to a report by Forbes, players will ‘lose’ approximately 50% of their existing tokens with the reset, fostering concerns about the perceived fairness of the new system. The introductions of Helldivers 2 and the related battle passes have sparked a broader debate in the gaming community. A contributing opinion from PC Gamer emphasizes that battle passes, much like those in Helldivers 2, should ‘never expire’, highlighting players’ preferences for a more player-friendly approach. On the contrary, CBR elaborates on specifics that players should consider regarding the currency involved in ‘Marvel Rivals’. As it stands, the conversations surrounding upholding player investments in these games are intensifying as the launch date approaches. In a recent tweet, prominent gamer @GamerGuy2022 expressed, ‘I’m not okay with losing tokens I’ve worked hard to collect!’ Such sentiments reflect a growing trend of player dissatisfaction that could lead developers to reconsider their approaches to monetization in future seasons.
