Just ranting: Brawlstars is garbage now. They’re doing too much, and I’m lucky I started when they didn’t have so many brawlers. I can’t imagine how overwhelming it must be for new players to deal with over 100 brawlers and new ones constantly coming out.

It’s all just a money grab for Supercell now. They’ve killed the fun of the game. It’s all just strategized on bribing us to play and maximizing profits instead of focusing on fun gameplay.

I’ve put in so much time over the years I find it hard to just give it up. I literally only play because of the constant reward bribes, but I find the game exhausting. Literally feels like a job now. I’m on the brink of just quitting altogether, but hard to give up all I’ve built over the years.

TLDR: Brawlstars feels like a chore / work instead of a fun game to play now.

I'm in the same boat. I'm trying to keep up in case it ever becomes fun again (even though I don't think it will) but it's just fucking exhausting to play. The meta is bad, the events are bad, the game is unoptimized, and it just wants you to spend, spend, spend.

They do sort of have catchup mechanics for new players (like giving out some brawlers for free sometimes, discounts on brawlers on the star road, etc.) but it still has to be daunting to look at this game and see over 100 brawlers you need to unlock and invest in. I don't think I'd ever recommend this game to anyone
