I am for this paywall as long as there’s going to be other ways to get shards OR turnips. Make them part of the seasonal event, as I hope you were already planning to!! Make turnips tradable too, and ppl can build up their bonus without the only real way (theater and daily log in give very little, which is fine since they’re guaranteed) being to spend money to fit within the timeframe the pets are available.
Thank you by the way! I am genuinely thinking that this is progress and I’m excited for the seasonal event!
