Since the Duets concert hall had all those seats and more than 8 players were allowed at the same time, I was expecting a concert; not on the level of Aurora but something that filled all the seats. Also, that hall had a definite night club vibe so I was thinking maybe we’d get some soft jazz and more than one song for the concert. I feel that my expectations are in line with the venue they presented to us and because of that, the end of that season fell flat for me.
Yeah, I thought the end of the season would unlock some kind of constant concert or something or workers (like the cafe) but it's just kinda there and forgetable
@@midnightnavigatorsame, it is even more annoying the fact that nothing happened bc now we have the concert function on and I hate that place bc of that, at the start of the season I used to love it, it was such a beautiful place and so calming and now with all the floating colourful skykids there... And for nothing, I just don't want to go there anything soon
It's sad. I also expected a small special concert at the end. I can only imagine that tgc made it for upcoming events or something. Who knows? But the festival tech constantly there making me feel more stressed out. It was like alredy mentioned a nice chilly place. We will see in the future what tgc does with that concert hall. Also only 1 song for a musical season? Hmmm made me wonder.
@@PumpKinnii_The constant festival tech stresses me out too. It's such a pretty area and I want to explore it but there's always so many people there! I don't like it!
honestly 15 normal candles is very little nowadays, considering the server errors are still happening.. when you're trying to answer the riddles in the days of moonlight.. or buying anything from shatter spirits.
The riddles They don't even show up for me when I go there, such are the bugs that are happening now... But the candles were related to the big bug that occurred a few days ago where several players were stuck at home and were unable to play for approximately 4 days. That's approximately 80 candles.... And they paid the equivalent of just one day. (a day not complete yet.)
they should have given us 100 candles idc idc. Shattering spirits and the best lightseeker cape all coming back at the same time… insanityyy and I just restarted grinding a month ago
nah fr like 15 regular candles and 5 seasonal? are they shitting my ass right now. this is why i stopped playing cus the game was straight up turning into a chore with all this candle grinding. i used to puff my chest out in pride when id manage to save up 400 candles only to go broke after buying like. 2 items. tf
@@AgentMulder120 they genuinely gave us less that a day's grind now with the double light event on. I never managed to save more than 300 personally but every new thing that shows up drains it all away. I hope you found new things to do that aren't a chore to you
To be honest, it's the reason I quit the game. I spent my first year just grinding my ass off but with all these events and whatnot, I figured "Was it really worth it anymore?" I mean yeah sure I DON'T need to. I can just enjoy the game as is but like, if not to grind for candles, what does this game even have to offer me anymore? Maybe lore but even then, it's sparse and not direct and with the upcoming Moomin seasons coming up, that doesn't even have to do with Sky as a whole. As someone who planned to write fanfiction about the game, I can just read up on what's relevant about the upcoming seasons and implement it from there. What does the game have to offer, other than friends. (Unless you're a solo player like I was.) And let's be real, the only reason why TGC is making the Moomin collab anyway is to get more players into the game as a quick cash grab. It's what happened with The Little Prince and also Aurora collab. Players will leave once there's no relevancy anymore. I've seen it. They need to realize that the players who do stick around, the ones who will play their stupid game are the ones who are willing to grind on candles and they are literally driving them away with these back-to-back events that are causing burnout. Idk, maybe that's just me. I'm just bitter that they changed the old fireplaces. I miss being able to sit there and enjoy the rain from the forest while just being able to collect wax without having to move around few seconds just to burn those wax balls. And to those who are defending the company, GURL be fucking for real. It's a literal company. If they wanted more money anyway, they should invest in making NEW games to have people buy. Not milk children dry out of their fucking savings. They currently only have like 6 games, only 2 are popular and literally are copies of each other. While the rest legit follow the same 'calming and peaceful' style of gaming. And like, they have so much potential, I mean have you seen the concept art for the Sky game? They could have done so much more with that, only to shave it down to the bare minimum because they wanted to make it compatible with mobile players. TGC need to step up or they'll be the ones raking in the losses soon. Sorry if this was long, it's something that has always pissed me off about TGC and oh boy I had things to say.
Totally spot on! It was Aviary that did me in. It felt like this was the Home they wish they could have had at the start, so now they make it now, but it's too big, too spread out, too complicated. I switched back to Old Home and I'm much happier. Dudes at TGC, _just make new games!_ Don't just tack on your new ideas to Sky.
@@kikijewell2967 That's the thing though. It WAS supposed to be in the original game concept but was ultimately scrapped during the early launches because they wanted it to be compatible with Android users (Apple products were capable of withstanding the older versions to my knowledge, might be wrong) There's a TH-camr here called Tara's Sky Journey that has footage of the old aviary during its beta release with footage from all the way back from 2018 (Posted in 2020). It's not the same but still very similar. The video is called 'Sky Beta Memories: Our Beloved Aviary' you can see the similarities.
@@kikijewell2967Yeah exactly, aviary village is unnecessarily big :/ I like the old home space better but I feel forced to use aviary so that I can access harmony hall for my daily candle run... Also I still don't understand why we have to spawn at the very end of the map when they could've just spawned us in front of the realm portal🫠
Finally someone who said this Also i think we wont be getting more and more lore on Resh (eden elder) until the two embers come out but since its revolved around 2 children instead of the elders or so i think the lore would be useless atp If TGC truly care about its community it will have to listen thru the amount of motivation and money theyre drying the players out of it honestly makes me glad some moths never played the game again
Right!? Like at this point I'm probably a veteran player but I just never feel like I'm caught up! I just started grinding for candles every day and it's so tiring it takes over and hour and I play every day. This game is supposed to be fun and relaxing.
I have 900 plus candles, I don’t spend any candles on shattering or ts spirit because I already have all the item from that spirit.. And for me it’s boring cause I can’t do anything with my candles not like others they complain because not enough candles to buy this And that, Even though they grind candles everyday.. I understand that because Its hard for new player But not for veteran.. Hope you guys enjoy playing in sky
@Med-jp5wz my first season is shattering And im not a veteran at all, I feel like this sky tgc became dull of idea.. player got bored nowadays even myself wanna have break from sky..
@@ankur9254fear of missing out, like when collabs happens and things are too expensive (in your end), you fear that if you miss out on those you’ll regret it much more later and then feel “entitled” to get most items out of this, at least from what I understood so far.. not exactly like this but close to it.
The messed up thing is that me and my friends were talking about how much candles was offered and some of my friends were offered less seasonal candles and eden candles than some of my others friends so idk what TGC is trying to pull there..?
That might be a bug. Everyone was supposed to get 15 regular candles, 5 ascended, 5 seasonal. I think your friends should send a message to TGC about that.
As someone who farms 20 candles every day, 15 candles was really a kick in the face for missing 5 days of gameplay (which adds up to still missing 85 candles after the comp) due to bugs 💀 I’m one to very rarely complain about this game, and some comp is better then none, but it feels really- I dunno, like TGC is saying “god just shut up already HERE” and calling it a day rather then actually caring about their players. But they’ve been known for that for the last couple years now. As someone who’s been around since first release, it wouldnt surprise me at all if TGC retires the game by next year
And, as someone who's 20+2 almost everyday, the compensation was pathetic and they also eased things with the double light event but with the laughably low cap on the amount of candles you can gather everyday the light event did nothing for me... like I was getting the 20 regardless. The cap is infuriating and feels like a punishment for playing.
(Current shattering ts group)They made the crab shoulder pet 70 candles, 70 CANDLES, thats the same price as a cape?? Its so small why is it so expensive it makes literally no sense 😭 The butterfly head Accessory is also 50 candles WHY
That's honestly not enough either unless they decreased prices. But there's still the issue of how ridiculously time consuming farming is for the full candle count daily. And hearts still remain a massive issue.
Petition to remove the chevron. As someone who played both before and after, it’s doing more bad than good. The candle limit only exists because of the chevron system.
@@annalin5045 even if they remove it, doesn't mean they'd remove the mechanic implemented behind it, which is the low candle maximum allotment. The chevron just let's people more accurately track about how many they've collected this far in the day. Tgc crippled how many candles we can forge daily & dragged out how long it takes to get the full amount by making each progressive ball of wax collected count a little less each time. It's not the chevron, it's tgc that's the problem lol
@@NoNames-vw3bq Not defending TGC on any level, but the chevron system is responsible for the fact that there’s a cap (more or less) on the daily candle output. Prior to the system, I did not even need to do a full run of every realm to reach my 20 of the day. That meant that, in addition to the new seasonal areas that offer more wax (albeit not as much as they used to like they did for sanctuary and enchantment), the extra realms would have added up to possibly a good few more candles. And that’s not to mention some new events that offer more wax (like sunlight and moonlight), which gives a substantial amount unless you add it onto your gauge after it turned grey. The each ball of wax offering less is part of the chevron system. Each level designated how fast candles can be filled. The amount of wax isn’t dependent on whether it’s the 55th or 56th in the sequence, but on the chevron level. The first five candles part of the first level and are earned at the same rate, the next five are part of the second level and earned at a lower rate (but still the same speed as applied to their level), and so on. Tgc is the problem, yes, but the main problem is their decision to ever implement the chevron system.
There’s a reason I dislike the chevron system when it was first announced and even till now. Most people when they saw it thought “oh faster cr”, but they don’t realize that “fast” only applies to the first 10-15 candles, and makes the rest of the run harder and much more longer. I was very vocal with my friends about the whole hidden agenda of TGC to put a daily limit on candles, and the plan to make the whole candle run sequence longer while hiding behind their “it’s faster at the start” campaign. Of course nobody in the community listened when I posted it on Reddit and look where we are now. I say that they got what they deserved for actually naively believing in TGC. I grinded thousands of candles over the years so I’m doing well, can’t say I really feel bad for anyone except the new players that came after the chevron was implemented.
@@thatspellcastkkid_7672YT Oh no, it’s a thing that’s been around for a few years now. You see those 3 ^ shaped arrows on your candle icon when you start off on Sky each time? Each one symbolizes a level. At the first level (with all three arrows) you earn candles very fast, then after you get your first five candles, one arrow drops off and you earn candles slower. The speed drops with every arrow that disappears. At no arrows, you head into gray candle mode after earning 5 (your 20th candle), which soft caps your max candles for the day. It’s difficult to earn anymore than 21 and that’s if you grab every single wax location.
@@thatspellcastkkid_7672YT It's indicated by the number of arrows next to your candle and it's meant to be a wax booster that helps you accumulate candles faster. The more arrows you have, the faster your candle meter fills up. Every time the day resets you'll have 3 arrows, and after you collect 5 whole candles the arrow bar will drop by 1. So when all 3 arrows disappear you've essentially collected 15 candles.
I feel betrayed after I looked into the sky wiki... I think everyone got fooled cus tgc told us the chevron system would help us collect candles with lesser wax, which is true but only for the first 10 candles. After the first 2 arrows disappear the number of wax you need for each candle actually increased from 150 -> 178 wax😔 Before you only needed 3000 wax to get 20 candles, but with the chevron system you'll need 4195 wax if you want to collect 20 candles now. With so many events back to back, I feel pressured to do full candle runs every day, and even then, I don't have enough candles to buy half of the cosmetics they offer :/
I have seen so many company defenders on Sky's official account on fb. They are very passionate, I must say. But that comment is something else. It's an actual 7 marks worth essay.
Hey I think you misread the letter with the candles. It says no where that it’s a compensation, it’s just a thank-you for us being patient with tgc while they look for a bug fix. Again, not a compensation
Something that personally annoys me is that tickets just poof? Like- seasonal candles turn to normal candles WHY CANT EVENT CURRENCY DO THE SAME maybe not a full candle- but 1/3? That would be SO SWEET (and that would give us a way of turning ascended candles into normal candles)
Wait so is it the compensation for server error for 2 days few weeks back? I thought they messed up something once again after that (as I wasn't playing so I thought I missed it). Oh boy, they should have given more compensation. Around 40-60 candles. There are legit people who collect all 20 candles in a day. There is no reason why they shouldn't do it. "It's a compensation, don't expect free stuff" is ridiculous given its the game fault for having those server errors and they should make up for that regardless of any reason as to why it happened. It's almost like they want to be in this plausible deniability of "acknowledging their game is grinding" or "it's not necessary to grind and players are stupid to be greedy for cosmetics"
With the amount of money they take from all the season passes and all the ridiculously priced IAPs & for how long this game has been around it is inexcusable to STILL have so many server issues & so many bugs (some of which have been around as long as the game itself). Where does all the money go? Clearly it isn't going towards properly maintaining the game or these issues should be far less frequent.
Ah my sweet summer child, I remember real FOMO when android released on Tuesday and Thursday a 190 candle travelling spirit returned, giving us 6 days for players unable to play due to platform support to get 190 candles, though the chevron system didn't exist, there were way fewer candles available, as it was only the "main" maps, no seasonal maps had been added at that point. All days of events cost candles and hearts too rather than a seperate event items. I have since learnt to embrace the mothiness, things will come, and come around again in time, tier rank the things you really enjoy and focus on them, just filling the wardrobe isn't satisfying in the end, time with friends, and their stories are what we will remember after we leave, or the game leaves us. 💜
I'll be honest, fomo broke my drive to get cosmetics. Now, unless it's something that really speaks to me (like the cello, I'll be honest - sky has been overdue for another bass instrument), I just won't try to get it. I'll play outside of seasons and events, finding my own quiet places to mess around and chill. I don't even try to get candles anymore. Because honestly, it just isn't worth it. You know something is wrong when you have more hearts and AC than any other currency.
Also i think they pass through seasons too quickly. I don’t have the energy nor time to dedicate playing the game for hours most days. Just lame when a game makes you spend all of your time, money and energy into it for such little gameplay. The live player aspect is what makes me love the game the most. Love playing with people and there’s always someone who wants to be your friend

People before compensation: Omg tgc we hate you!! boycott!! uninstalled!! People after compensation: Omg TGC we love you!! You listen to the players after all!!! Keep it up!
this is why i quit the game. i realized how much i obsessed over the game even after i uninstalled it. honestly it's gotten from a nice small indy game to a big greedy company.
FOMO is real and i get why some players feel like they have to get it all. I am one of those who would like to have all the nice things too but where I live it's just plain unrealistic. As an example the shattering ts there are only selected things that I like. I know what I will wear and things that will just sit in my closet forever. The compensation was ok but not enough. Happy to get all those candles I didn't have to grind for
i'm surprised im that 1% who doesn' t have fomo. if i like a ts group or days of [blank] skipped so many TS just to save up for 1 cape, i honestly do not mind to skip :v skipping something isn't bad. i think cinnamon roll event caused a lot of fomo but when i saw what the actual item looked like on others. didn't get it since i knew i was most likely not going to wear it. it's too bad some iap or some ts items you cannot try on At the closet before buying it. so it causes fomo for most players.
I Relate a lot to that I came back years after first trying the game in 2019 and after seeing myself being a moth while everyone was dripped I kinda felt like I left out on a lot. The whole feeling went away when I looked through the wiki and saw not only what each ss offered but also the ts appearance timeline. Now I've picked a wishlist for the outfits I want to have and have a rough estimate on how long it'll be until the ts comes back so I have 0 FOMO. (even if I miss out what's a year of waiting until the ts comes back? Sky is a casual game to retreat to not a competitive shopping simulator)
They need too give us more free candles like 50 every other month actually they need to rework their entire spirt system cuz its too hard too get old cosmetics we need more time or smth
i donno about fomo, i think its a bit silly that people take it so seriously. but i sort of get it too. the game is made to make players stressed enough to buy candles. i think the worst part is how unfinished the game feels. like some of the newer inviorment feels so empty and unpolished. nothing gives me the same "i wanna explore every nook and crany of the map!!!". as when i first started the game...'3'
Yeah when they put all the spirits of the previous season like shattering obviously the players must buy regular candles not to miss out all those cosmetics carried by the spirits of the previous season..
yesterday's candle run with my friend kept merging me to a different server and away from my friend. I kept teleporting back to them and the same thing repeats a few minutes later. 😢
When we don't have any new seasons the 5 Seasonal candles we earn become regular candles, letting us earn 20-25 candles in a day (depending how much you CR ofc) but we lose those extra 5 to the seasons, if they can figure out a way to give us both seasonal and the extra 5 regular candles i feel this would calm a bit of the tension, if you know what i mean?
the inflation is awful. it feels like theyre trying to milk the fandom for all we're worth. as much as i like season of moomin, i don't think i'll even particapate in it. there's just no appeal, especially with the grind being so annoying and sky doing too many collabs while not focusing on the game itself and their issues.
I literally had over 200 candles and have been grinding everyday, and i might not be able to get what i want from the shattering season spirits :( it makes me sad that i have to take time from my already busy day to do this, FOMO be damned, its making me suffer
I never liked this game. Played it because had a friend that would play it. We rarely played because there’s just nothing going on once you get all the memories and all the cosmetics are crazy expensive for casual players considering it’s a casual game. 😑
Brother. I think the thing that needs to be talked about the most out of all the frustrating things. Is. It feels most of the beta players feedback is useless most of the time eother coz, as one of my friend says, most beta players are just playing for the free cosmetics, not for feedback or TGC doesnt listen to feedback many times. Also. I think. players give TGC too much credit for many things. So accept the wrong things TGC does lightly. Maybe coz most players are kids and dont understand what TGC is doing. I am an older okayer who saw gaming from the 90s etc. I know gaming as an industry has changed a lot. With IAP being the worst stuff. But for a game which says that they promote community etc, for them to become more abd more like genshin feels stupid to me. Thankfully the okayer base was fed up with all the crap ubisoft pulled. Maybe coz the player base is older and knows more about how downhill the game is going on.
This video is edited so well, i'm laughing my ass off Also i fucking hate what tgc has done to the game and completely agree with all the negativity people have thrown at them these past few months (((:
I got so fucked over that I can't complete the season no matter what I do .. even if I buy like 4 of the seasonal candle bundles And I just want an umbrella 😢
most the money they make is from FOMO , if u don't pay 10$ for the AP have fun waiting 2 years for 1 spirit to come as a TS from that season and out maybe a year in between for the others...
having fomo sucks so bad especially with how candles are collected. I am a kid without a job, I cant buy everything nor can I compesate with bought candles. It's so tiring to grind
dude idk WHAT happened that week but somehow my candle count went from two to ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE. like i grinded for TWO DAYS and i had like eighty candles i looked at it went: THIS SHI AINT REAL- i ended up buying a cape a music sheet and a nifty lil hat that week i was like: is this how pro players feel? COS THIS FEELS AMAZING that week was AWESOME
a game like sky needs FOMO to incentivize players buying candles, the game wouldn't turn a profit if they removed the mechanics generating FOMO and therefore wouldn't exist
I'm a common sense person, it's obvious that tgc has been too responsive to the wishes of their players and now can't keep up with the servers. It will go back to normal! That's all anyone with common sense needs to say.
honestly the "grind" isn't even that bad, lets just say u got 15 candle each day, taking approx 30 minutes - 1 hour to do it, u will got 90 candles in 6 days, less than a week, which is shy of getting on of the cape that cost total 95 if u havent played the event, and just 80 if u have, so TGC have give us enough time to buy atleast 1 of the more expensive item, and that with zero candle on the start of the event ( and 15 candle each day ) so i dont think its expensive at all, if u could get everything in one week of grinding there is no fun in it. there will be no feeling of reliefs or joy when u finally got that cape/cosmetic u want after hours of grinding. unless u have severe FOMO then that's a different story....
I think you're a rare case who enjoys countless grinding despite doing it for years. Trust me when I say, grinding will get monotonous and it will suck out the joy of getting those 2 items out of 100 other items on display in 6 months.
@@jaya2572 maybe, im also a gacha game player, it takes you weeks to month just to get an item/build u wanted, so for me spending that amount of to get something is atleast good enough, it def could get better i didnt say the current price is perfect, but for me its not as worst as it seems.
@@johnathan1506 TGC is not a charity company, cosmetic will not pop out of nowhere in ur inventory if u didnt do anything. getting one good/"expensive" item each week is already good enough, again if u think its not good enough, you might need to check ur FOMO. u doesnt need to get every single item, and the game def isnt forcing u to do that too.
@@Clmrn I get you're comparing this game to other games with gacha. But this game isn't like those so I am not sure why others would think the same way as you do? This game is very simple. The main story (which is the main focus of the game) gets over in 6 hours and side stories (seasons) can easily be done in a week or two. The only thing that keeps anyone playing this game is cosmetics and I believe tgc is overrelying on customization items and overestimates the patience of players for these cosmetics. However, if it works for you, great then. I can see where is your patience and perspective coming from.
Even though this game is like five years, the company is building a world. It will take time to make those ideas reality we shouldn’t push the game company but like the long text says, if something is wrong let’s be concise and use our words.
I also suffer from FOMO and i sadly lost my main account that had EVERYTHING all because i didnt link it to anything. i really wish sky had a username and password type of login.
2:00 i farm 20c every day and it does shorten the time by a little bit, but mostly depends on what realm the cakes are in. prairie or forest cakes shorten the cr by like 30 minutes!!!
i personally think we should boycott sky.... or at least the IAPs. I dont really care if its because they're adding more and more or whatever, they genuinely are way too overpriced. all ive ever seen are people being upset or disappointed at the prices and the newer seasons, so perhaps we should actually do something about it?

It was Aviary that did me in. It felt like this was the Home they wish they could have had at the start, so now they make it now, but it's too big, too spread out, too complicated. I switched back to Old Home and I'm much happier.
Dudes at TGC, _just make new games!_ Don't just tack on your new ideas to Sky.
@@kikijewell2967 That's the thing though. It WAS supposed to be in the original game concept but was ultimately scrapped during the early launches because they wanted it to be compatible with Android users (Apple products were capable of withstanding the older versions to my knowledge, might be wrong)
There's a TH-camr here called Tara's Sky Journey that has footage of the old aviary during its beta release with footage from all the way back from 2018 (Posted in 2020). It's not the same but still very similar. The video is called 'Sky Beta Memories: Our Beloved Aviary' you can see the similarities.
@@kikijewell2967Yeah exactly, aviary village is unnecessarily big :/ I like the old home space better but I feel forced to use aviary so that I can access harmony hall for my daily candle run...
Also I still don't understand why we have to spawn at the very end of the map when they could've just spawned us in front of the realm portal🫠
Finally someone who said this
Also i think we wont be getting more and more lore on Resh (eden elder) until the two embers come out but since its revolved around 2 children instead of the elders or so i think the lore would be useless atp
If TGC truly care about its community it will have to listen thru the amount of motivation and money theyre drying the players out of it honestly makes me glad some moths never played the game again
FOMO: Sky always makes me feel poor and left out, no matter how much I play and buy. 😮💨💀
It is bc all the focus ppl put on "veterans" and ikemen, also completionists
Right!? Like at this point I'm probably a veteran player but I just never feel like I'm caught up! I just started grinding for candles every day and it's so tiring it takes over and hour and I play every day.
This game is supposed to be fun and relaxing.
I have 900 plus candles, I don’t spend any candles on shattering or ts spirit because I already have all the item from that spirit.. And for me it’s boring cause I can’t do anything with my candles not like others they complain because not enough candles to buy this And that, Even though they grind candles everyday.. I understand that because Its hard for new player But not for veteran.. Hope you guys enjoy playing in sky
@Med-jp5wz my first season is shattering And im not a veteran at all, I feel like this sky tgc became dull of idea.. player got bored nowadays even myself wanna have break from sky..
as a 4 year veteran, you would think that my wardrobe looks good but its actually so sad for 4 years
I do suffer from fomo, i was diagnosed back when I started playing again and bought a nearly 30 dollar cape.
Why is this literally me rn but w the 14.99 Days of Moonlight frock ☠️
Wgat is fomo...im new to the game so i don't know.
@@ankur9254fear of missing out, like when collabs happens and things are too expensive (in your end), you fear that if you miss out on those you’ll regret it much more later and then feel “entitled” to get most items out of this, at least from what I understood so far.. not exactly like this but close to it.

The messed up thing is that me and my friends were talking about how much candles was offered and some of my friends were offered less seasonal candles and eden candles than some of my others friends so idk what TGC is trying to pull there..?
That might be a bug. Everyone was supposed to get 15 regular candles, 5 ascended, 5 seasonal. I think your friends should send a message to TGC about that.
@@DulyDullahan yeah hopefully that is the case!
Both my accounts got nothing :/
As someone who farms 20 candles every day, 15 candles was really a kick in the face for missing 5 days of gameplay (which adds up to still missing 85 candles after the comp) due to bugs 💀 I’m one to very rarely complain about this game, and some comp is better then none, but it feels really- I dunno, like TGC is saying “god just shut up already HERE” and calling it a day rather then actually caring about their players. But they’ve been known for that for the last couple years now. As someone who’s been around since first release, it wouldnt surprise me at all if TGC retires the game by next year
And, as someone who's 20+2 almost everyday, the compensation was pathetic and they also eased things with the double light event but with the laughably low cap on the amount of candles you can gather everyday the light event did nothing for me... like I was getting the 20 regardless. The cap is infuriating and feels like a punishment for playing.
How are you getting 20? After 2 realms, granny and geyser I only make 12
@@Luluwahkeyevery realm, every candle lmao, the grind is real 😔🙏
(Current shattering ts group)They made the crab shoulder pet 70 candles, 70 CANDLES, thats the same price as a cape?? Its so small why is it so expensive it makes literally no sense 😭
The butterfly head Accessory is also 50 candles WHY
don't buy it then. looks ugly
The point isnt to buy or not buy, the point is that its the same price as a cape and it should not be the same price as a cape
The crab's 70 candles?
God, I'm glad I bought it that season then but WHY DUDE??? IT'S BARELY NOTICABLE!!??
Seems like it could've been a mistake like maybe the hair was supposed to be 70 lol

@@tweenieistired 😂 Wdym it's 40! 👀

Up to 800 candles just for shattering??? Nah I’m so glad I finished that season 😭😭😭
A new candle limit of 25 would be sufficient I think. 100 candles every 4 days instead of 5. The chevron count would have to charge too
That's honestly not enough either unless they decreased prices. But there's still the issue of how ridiculously time consuming farming is for the full candle count daily. And hearts still remain a massive issue.
Petition to remove the chevron. As someone who played both before and after, it’s doing more bad than good. The candle limit only exists because of the chevron system.
sky inflation
@@annalin5045 even if they remove it, doesn't mean they'd remove the mechanic implemented behind it, which is the low candle maximum allotment. The chevron just let's people more accurately track about how many they've collected this far in the day. Tgc crippled how many candles we can forge daily & dragged out how long it takes to get the full amount by making each progressive ball of wax collected count a little less each time. It's not the chevron, it's tgc that's the problem lol
@@NoNames-vw3bq Not defending TGC on any level, but the chevron system is responsible for the fact that there’s a cap (more or less) on the daily candle output. Prior to the system, I did not even need to do a full run of every realm to reach my 20 of the day. That meant that, in addition to the new seasonal areas that offer more wax (albeit not as much as they used to like they did for sanctuary and enchantment), the extra realms would have added up to possibly a good few more candles. And that’s not to mention some new events that offer more wax (like sunlight and moonlight), which gives a substantial amount unless you add it onto your gauge after it turned grey. The each ball of wax offering less is part of the chevron system. Each level designated how fast candles can be filled. The amount of wax isn’t dependent on whether it’s the 55th or 56th in the sequence, but on the chevron level. The first five candles part of the first level and are earned at the same rate, the next five are part of the second level and earned at a lower rate (but still the same speed as applied to their level), and so on. Tgc is the problem, yes, but the main problem is their decision to ever implement the chevron system.
There’s a reason I dislike the chevron system when it was first announced and even till now. Most people when they saw it thought “oh faster cr”, but they don’t realize that “fast” only applies to the first 10-15 candles, and makes the rest of the run harder and much more longer. I was very vocal with my friends about the whole hidden agenda of TGC to put a daily limit on candles, and the plan to make the whole candle run sequence longer while hiding behind their “it’s faster at the start” campaign. Of course nobody in the community listened when I posted it on Reddit and look where we are now. I say that they got what they deserved for actually naively believing in TGC. I grinded thousands of candles over the years so I’m doing well, can’t say I really feel bad for anyone except the new players that came after the chevron was implemented.
Hey, I gotta ask. What's the chevron system? I haven't been keeping up with the news till recently
@@thatspellcastkkid_7672YT Oh no, it’s a thing that’s been around for a few years now. You see those 3 ^ shaped arrows on your candle icon when you start off on Sky each time? Each one symbolizes a level. At the first level (with all three arrows) you earn candles very fast, then after you get your first five candles, one arrow drops off and you earn candles slower. The speed drops with every arrow that disappears. At no arrows, you head into gray candle mode after earning 5 (your 20th candle), which soft caps your max candles for the day. It’s difficult to earn anymore than 21 and that’s if you grab every single wax location.
@@thatspellcastkkid_7672YTThe 3 red stripes on your candle every daily reset.
@@thatspellcastkkid_7672YT It's indicated by the number of arrows next to your candle and it's meant to be a wax booster that helps you accumulate candles faster. The more arrows you have, the faster your candle meter fills up.
Every time the day resets you'll have 3 arrows, and after you collect 5 whole candles the arrow bar will drop by 1. So when all 3 arrows disappear you've essentially collected 15 candles.
I feel betrayed after I looked into the sky wiki... I think everyone got fooled cus tgc told us the chevron system would help us collect candles with lesser wax, which is true but only for the first 10 candles. After the first 2 arrows disappear the number of wax you need for each candle actually increased from 150 -> 178 wax😔
Before you only needed 3000 wax to get 20 candles, but with the chevron system you'll need 4195 wax if you want to collect 20 candles now.
With so many events back to back, I feel pressured to do full candle runs every day, and even then, I don't have enough candles to buy half of the cosmetics they offer :/
Why is nobody talking about how sasha just got eradicated at the start and just didnt appear again😂😂
I have seen so many company defenders on Sky's official account on fb. They are very passionate, I must say. But that comment is something else. It's an actual 7 marks worth essay.
Their might be editing mistakes close to the end but then again ur not real im not real and both of us are probably in an asylum so
Maybe.
At this point, anything is possible.
I am the attic
Hey I think you misread the letter with the candles. It says no where that it’s a compensation, it’s just a thank-you for us being patient with tgc while they look for a bug fix. Again, not a compensation
The wrong *yor'ue
@@ChicaGaming_Z ur sure?
Something that personally annoys me is that tickets just poof? Like- seasonal candles turn to normal candles WHY CANT EVENT CURRENCY DO THE SAME maybe not a full candle- but 1/3? That would be SO SWEET (and that would give us a way of turning ascended candles into normal candles)
Or at least let’s us buy tons of spells with them!
what about hearts though, why can't they turn the tickets into hearts
@@roadcement That’s a good idea!
If doing candle runs daily to keep player base making candle running a chore, then there is something wrong with the game
The only sky based news source I trust
Wait so is it the compensation for server error for 2 days few weeks back? I thought they messed up something once again after that (as I wasn't playing so I thought I missed it). Oh boy, they should have given more compensation. Around 40-60 candles. There are legit people who collect all 20 candles in a day. There is no reason why they shouldn't do it. "It's a compensation, don't expect free stuff" is ridiculous given its the game fault for having those server errors and they should make up for that regardless of any reason as to why it happened.
It's almost like they want to be in this plausible deniability of "acknowledging their game is grinding" or "it's not necessary to grind and players are stupid to be greedy for cosmetics"
"Players are stupid to grind for cosmetics" well they're making it a cosmetic grinding game what do you expect??
@@blu9547 That's what everyone is saying except for passionate company defenders!
I make about 24 candles a day or more, grandma helps out lol
@@partypartyyeah303 in my case, grandma is the saviour!
With the amount of money they take from all the season passes and all the ridiculously priced IAPs & for how long this game has been around it is inexcusable to STILL have so many server issues & so many bugs (some of which have been around as long as the game itself). Where does all the money go? Clearly it isn't going towards properly maintaining the game or these issues should be far less frequent.
istg, this channel needs more recognition frfr
Ah my sweet summer child, I remember real FOMO when android released on Tuesday and Thursday a 190 candle travelling spirit returned, giving us 6 days for players unable to play due to platform support to get 190 candles, though the chevron system didn't exist, there were way fewer candles available, as it was only the "main" maps, no seasonal maps had been added at that point. All days of events cost candles and hearts too rather than a seperate event items.
I have since learnt to embrace the mothiness, things will come, and come around again in time, tier rank the things you really enjoy and focus on them, just filling the wardrobe isn't satisfying in the end, time with friends, and their stories are what we will remember after we leave, or the game leaves us. 💜
bro the intro goes so hard
I'll be honest, fomo broke my drive to get cosmetics. Now, unless it's something that really speaks to me (like the cello, I'll be honest - sky has been overdue for another bass instrument), I just won't try to get it. I'll play outside of seasons and events, finding my own quiet places to mess around and chill. I don't even try to get candles anymore. Because honestly, it just isn't worth it.
You know something is wrong when you have more hearts and AC than any other currency.
I’m just so tired of the ear muff glitch and Eden being so complicated. I lost 60 wings the other day for 6 ascended candles 🙃
Also i think they pass through seasons too quickly. I don’t have the energy nor time to dedicate playing the game for hours most days. Just lame when a game makes you spend all of your time, money and energy into it for such little gameplay. The live player aspect is what makes me love the game the most. Love playing with people and there’s always someone who wants to be your friend
People before compensation: Omg tgc we hate you!! boycott!! uninstalled!!
People after compensation: Omg TGC we love you!! You listen to the players after all!!! Keep it up!
I wanted 60 candles at least, so no, this is the bare minimum.
this is why i quit the game. i realized how much i obsessed over the game even after i uninstalled it. honestly it's gotten from a nice small indy game to a big greedy company.
just noticed i haven't seen Sky COTL news and sky Cotl news and Sky Cotl News yet 🥺
what an absolute masterpiece of a video
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS EDITING HELP 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Switched to Wuthering Waves and haven't turned back. And I'm a vet, been playing since before CoViD so u know it's bad.
fomo made me stop playing sky 🥺
The editing is the best thing ever
FOMO is real and i get why some players feel like they have to get it all. I am one of those who would like to have all the nice things too but where I live it's just plain unrealistic. As an example the shattering ts there are only selected things that I like. I know what I will wear and things that will just sit in my closet forever. The compensation was ok but not enough. Happy to get all those candles I didn't have to grind for
im so glad season of shattering was legit the only season other than aurora that I completed o-o
i'm surprised im that 1% who doesn' t have fomo. if i like a ts group or days of [blank] skipped so many TS just to save up for 1 cape, i honestly do not mind to skip :v skipping something isn't bad. i think cinnamon roll event caused a lot of fomo but when i saw what the actual item looked like on others. didn't get it since i knew i was most likely not going to wear it. it's too bad some iap or some ts items you cannot try on At the closet before buying it. so it causes fomo for most players.
I Relate a lot to that
I came back years after first trying the game in 2019 and after seeing myself being a moth while everyone was dripped I kinda felt like I left out on a lot.
The whole feeling went away when I looked through the wiki and saw not only what each ss offered but also the ts appearance timeline.
Now I've picked a wishlist for the outfits I want to have and have a rough estimate on how long it'll be until the ts comes back so I have 0 FOMO. (even if I miss out what's a year of waiting until the ts comes back? Sky is a casual game to retreat to not a competitive shopping simulator)
Same, all I do I get my wing buffs and that's it for some traveling spirits.
I think the feature for the concert hall is made for something else in the future. We are being too hasty by complaining so much.
It probably is. But that doesn't justify it being a constant festival tech zone right now.
I'm subscribing. Just because this video.
They need too give us more free candles like 50 every other month actually they need to rework their entire spirt system cuz its too hard too get old cosmetics we need more time or smth
I've been complaining about the lack of compensation in candles not because the bug bothered me but bc I just wanna get free candles lmao
Yes I'm rich but I'm not rich enough for my liking
i donno about fomo, i think its a bit silly that people take it so seriously. but i sort of get it too. the game is made to make players stressed enough to buy candles. i think the worst part is how unfinished the game feels. like some of the newer inviorment feels so empty and unpolished. nothing gives me the same "i wanna explore every nook and crany of the map!!!". as when i first started the game...'3'
Agree I love exploring, even as a seasoned player you can always find new things...the grinding issue does bug me sometimes though
I have mad fomo, but every time i get back on to look at the new items, I am smagerg blasted (flabbergasted but silly) by the prices
Just lower the price of stuff it’s all so expensive
Let's appreciate for a moment the increase in production quality of these videos. ⚡💥🧨
Yeah when they put all the spirits of the previous season like shattering obviously the players must buy regular candles not to miss out all those cosmetics carried by the spirits of the previous season..
yesterday's candle run with my friend kept merging me to a different server and away from my friend. I kept teleporting back to them and the same thing repeats a few minutes later. 😢
This is the most epic intro i have ever seen. If only all news were like this. Id love it
When we don't have any new seasons the 5 Seasonal candles we earn become regular candles, letting us earn 20-25 candles in a day (depending how much you CR ofc) but we lose those extra 5 to the seasons, if they can figure out a way to give us both seasonal and the extra 5 regular candles i feel this would calm a bit of the tension, if you know what i mean?
the inflation is awful. it feels like theyre trying to milk the fandom for all we're worth. as much as i like season of moomin, i don't think i'll even particapate in it. there's just no appeal, especially with the grind being so annoying and sky doing too many collabs while not focusing on the game itself and their issues.
I literally had over 200 candles and have been grinding everyday, and i might not be able to get what i want from the shattering season spirits :( it makes me sad that i have to take time from my already busy day to do this, FOMO be damned, its making me suffer
I never liked this game. Played it because had a friend that would play it. We rarely played because there’s just nothing going on once you get all the memories and all the cosmetics are crazy expensive for casual players considering it’s a casual game. 😑
Brother. I think the thing that needs to be talked about the most out of all the frustrating things. Is.
It feels most of the beta players feedback is useless most of the time eother coz, as one of my friend says, most beta players are just playing for the free cosmetics, not for feedback or TGC doesnt listen to feedback many times. Also. I think. players give TGC too much credit for many things. So accept the wrong things TGC does lightly.
Maybe coz most players are kids and dont understand what TGC is doing.
I am an older okayer who saw gaming from the 90s etc.
I know gaming as an industry has changed a lot. With IAP being the worst stuff.
But for a game which says that they promote community etc, for them to become more abd more like genshin feels stupid to me.
Thankfully the okayer base was fed up with all the crap ubisoft pulled. Maybe coz the player base is older and knows more about how downhill the game is going on.
I actually like festival tech, it makes the place lively
**laggy
Dang that's a long comment, thanks for shortening the news!
This video is edited so well, i'm laughing my ass off
Also i fucking hate what tgc has done to the game and completely agree with all the negativity people have thrown at them these past few months (((:
lowkey, i would watch this news channel every morning (just like the today show in nyc)
I got so fucked over that I can't complete the season no matter what I do .. even if I buy like 4 of the seasonal candle bundles
And I just want an umbrella 😢
Love how ghetto the editing style is XD
barely a compensation lollll
you’re my favorite sky youtuber now❤❤❤❤❤❤ ITS TRUE!!!👊💥
most the money they make is from FOMO , if u don't pay 10$ for the AP have fun waiting 2 years for 1 spirit to come as a TS from that season and out maybe a year in between for the others...

LOVED THIS VIDEO LOL
Good thing I stop playing
dude idk WHAT happened that week but somehow my candle count went from two
to ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE.
like i grinded for TWO DAYS and i had like eighty candles
i looked at it
went: THIS SHI AINT REAL-
i ended up buying a cape a music sheet and a nifty lil hat that week
i was like: is this how pro players feel? COS THIS FEELS AMAZING
that week was AWESOME
a game like sky needs FOMO to incentivize players buying candles, the game wouldn't turn a profit if they removed the mechanics generating FOMO and therefore wouldn't exist
If Sky actively needs FOMO to exist then maybe it shouldn’t exist at all. It is such a predatory practice.
It existed just fine before the greed got in the way & turned it into what we've been seeing for a couple years now.
I'm a common sense person, it's obvious that tgc has been too responsive to the wishes of their players and now can't keep up with the servers. It will go back to normal! That's all anyone with common sense needs to say.
honestly the "grind" isn't even that bad, lets just say u got 15 candle each day, taking approx 30 minutes - 1 hour to do it, u will got 90 candles in 6 days, less than a week, which is shy of getting on of the cape that cost total 95 if u havent played the event, and just 80 if u have, so TGC have give us enough time to buy atleast 1 of the more expensive item, and that with zero candle on the start of the event ( and 15 candle each day ) so i dont think its expensive at all, if u could get everything in one week of grinding there is no fun in it. there will be no feeling of reliefs or joy when u finally got that cape/cosmetic u want after hours of grinding. unless u have severe FOMO then that's a different story....
Wow... one item... TGC is so generous...
I think you're a rare case who enjoys countless grinding despite doing it for years. Trust me when I say, grinding will get monotonous and it will suck out the joy of getting those 2 items out of 100 other items on display in 6 months.
@@jaya2572 maybe, im also a gacha game player, it takes you weeks to month just to get an item/build u wanted, so for me spending that amount of to get something is atleast good enough, it def could get better i didnt say the current price is perfect, but for me its not as worst as it seems.
@@johnathan1506 TGC is not a charity company, cosmetic will not pop out of nowhere in ur inventory if u didnt do anything. getting one good/"expensive" item each week is already good enough, again if u think its not good enough, you might need to check ur FOMO. u doesnt need to get every single item, and the game def isnt forcing u to do that too.
@@Clmrn I get you're comparing this game to other games with gacha. But this game isn't like those so I am not sure why others would think the same way as you do?
This game is very simple. The main story (which is the main focus of the game) gets over in 6 hours and side stories (seasons) can easily be done in a week or two.
The only thing that keeps anyone playing this game is cosmetics and I believe tgc is overrelying on customization items and overestimates the patience of players for these cosmetics.
However, if it works for you, great then. I can see where is your patience and perspective coming from.
Dude -w- ur intro is too long I know ur trying to entertain but dang it too long!
Even though this game is like five years, the company is building a world. It will take time to make those ideas reality we shouldn’t push the game company but like the long text says, if something is wrong let’s be concise and use our words.
I also suffer from FOMO and i sadly lost my main account that had EVERYTHING all because i didnt link it to anything. i really wish sky had a username and password type of login.
2:00 i farm 20c every day and it does shorten the time by a little bit, but mostly depends on what realm the cakes are in. prairie or forest cakes shorten the cr by like 30 minutes!!!
i personally think we should boycott sky.... or at least the IAPs. I dont really care if its because they're adding more and more or whatever, they genuinely are way too overpriced. all ive ever seen are people being upset or disappointed at the prices and the newer seasons, so perhaps we should actually do something about it?
