Chapter 494

Chapter 494. 4th Anniversary of Possession, Congrats. (1)

But as I read on, I realized that the 4th anniversary wasn’t the real issue.

[Global Announcement]

<<[Astral Lagrange Possession 4th Anniversary Event Notice!]>>

[Attention, Commanders!]

[It’s already been 4 years since you Commanders entered this world.]

[So much has happened in that time—even one faction was reorganized by you Commanders.]

[Truly, it’s been a series of eventful moments…]

[But despite all that, a new year has dawned, and we want to share this joy with you, Commanders!]

[Event Details]

[4th Anniversary Random Box Giveaway and Sale]

[During the event period, a total of 10 random boxes will be distributed to Commanders for free over the course of a week!]

˪[From Day 1 to Day 5, 1 box will be given daily. On Day 6, 2 boxes, and on the final Day 7, 3 boxes will be given!]

[In addition to the free boxes, boxes will also be available for purchase at 1,000 gold each!]

[Important Notes]

“Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!”

“You’re screaming like a high school girl.”

‘Is this crappy game really giving out this much?’

How shocking is this?

For three years, I was away, and when I came back, the so-called “return reward” was just one guaranteed gacha pull and a guaranteed superhuman gacha (?) that unlocked every time my base hit level 5.

But now, for the 4th anniversary of possession, they’re giving out all this?

It’s truly a sight to behold.

And of course, I wasn’t the only one thinking this.

Title: Is this event notice for real? Is this crappy god-tier game really giving out rewards like this?

This game always picks fights with users,

When it’s time to give rewards, they just slap on an apology and call it a day,

They got caught rigging probabilities and got hit with legal hammers,

When gacha errors popped up, they went “No, we’re right, you’re wrong” and got sued.

Is this really the same crappy god-tier game?

My heart feels so grand right now, fr.

Comments:

-[LMAO what’s with the last part?]

-[LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL]

-[Ah, those were the days]

-[I heard they fired all the people pulling that crap like 2 or 3 years before possession started]

-˪[Oh really?] (Author)

-˪[Wait, for real? I didn’t know that]

Veteran users, in particular, were reacting with disbelief, saying things like, “There’s no way our crappy god-tier game would do this,” as if they were in denial.

And it wasn’t just the regular users reacting this way.

Title: I’m a mod, but this is really hard to believe.

I’ve never seen the devs of this game go all out with rewards like this before.

Sure, it’s annoying that they’re making us buy boxes with in-game gold, which was a paid currency, even though it’s the 4th anniversary.

But still, giving out 10 boxes for free is something, right?

Comments:

-[Back in the day, they’d give out 1 box at random, LOL]

-[Maybe the users finally whipped them into shape?]

-˪[But we’re basically hostages here, right?]

-˪[If you can’t avoid it, enjoy it. Those who try hard can’t beat those who enjoy.]

-˪[Exactly that.]

Title: It’s Really Amazing

The staff are really going all out with the giveaways.

Comments:

– [Wow, I’ve never seen this person post in this gallery before]

– [They used to post a lot, but lately, they’ve just been managing stuff]

– [For real, the giveaways are so generous it’s kinda shocking]

– [They used to say users shouldn’t turn into pigs and didn’t even give out feed, but now this? Feels like just yesterday, sniff sniff]

—————————————–

Even the passing ‘rankers’ and user moderators were all equally shocked, so you can imagine how wild it is.

But anyway, the event is indeed happening.

And it’s not like other events where they announce it a week in advance—it’s starting right now, immediately.

As I was looking at those gallery posts and going “Hoooooeeeee”…

[Event]

[‘4th Anniversary Random Box’ Giveaway!]

[Details]

[To celebrate the 4th anniversary, a random box has been distributed!]

[Result]

[Received ‘4th Anniversary Random Box’ x1]

—————————————–

[Roulette System Guide]

[This system can be used anytime during the event period, but it disappears after one use!]

[Would you like to use the system?]

[Y/N]

—————————————–

With a flood of system messages popping up and the ‘Random Box’ plopping down in front of me, I nodded to myself and decided to spin the roulette first to get some resources.

==========

And 5 days later.

Unlike me, who only got resources and thought, “Well, that’s my luck for you,” while stacking up the boxes, other users were really enjoying the event to the fullest.

Especially, the most talked-about topic was, of course, the ‘Random Box’…

—————————————–

With random boxes being spun left and right, some users—though not many—were pulling out ‘Super Dreadnought’-level items that are usually impossible to get.
