We just got a follow-up announcement to Ben Brode and Second Dinner's decision to axe nexus events after recieiving a fair amount of community negativity over them.
The post was made on the official discord, and their respective twitters reading;
"Hey Everyone!
Last week, we removed Nexus Events from the game. We have another update for you today.
Let’s just run it back and start over, eh? We’re going to give back all the gold y’all spent on Nexus Events.
Whether you spent 360 or 36,000 gold, we’re just going to dump that amount of gold back in your account with this next patch. Additionally, even if you didn’t spend any gold, we’ll be granting Jane Foster to everyone who doesn’t already have her. (Brand new accounts will find her in Pool 3.)
I want to extend my personal thanks for providing your feedback and sticking with us as we continue to improve the game. We have big dreams for the future of MARVEL SNAP; We want to build a game that can stand the test of time! To do that, we’ll be working on fair and fun ways we can add new cards to the game. As we test new monetization features, we’ll be keeping in mind that we need to be providing value and creating a player-friendly experience. We don’t have all the details quite yet, but we'll be hard at work until we do. 💪"
This is an amazing piece of news and an impressive step for the devs to take, any time the team behind a game is willing to change things based on the community's wishes is a win for the players and a great indication of what to expect from the team!
