Ok so its been awhile since I have checked on here so if this has been suggested then please ignore my post or remove it.

I see a problem with people losing interest in the game because they hit the cap and have all the items and tons of money and they ask.....what now?

Well The Legends Casino is what to do after you have done everything possible. Like the name suggests it is a pl inspired casino, in game or as a stand alone app this has potential. You could link your characters and play various minigames either casino related or not. I know for myself even though I have like 27 million I would be more than happy to lay it all on the line in an intense card game. Pocket Legends High Rollers Poker or blah blah blah whatever the name I just really like the idea.

I intentionally didn't go into detail about this because the people on here are very intelligent and I love their ideas. So please everyone start discussing the aspects of this idea.

Just read the title, but no way. Devs don't want gambling, and it's bannable. BANNABLE!!!

The potential for profit is huge and it plays on the greed and the human need for competition. It is just an idea, there is no need for anyone to get all defensive. Like I said it could be a stand alone app and you wouldn't have to play it if you didn't want to.

if its not in PL, why suggest it for PL? why not find a minigame company to suggest it to?

I suggest it because of the need to link your accounts so you can gamble with your gold. So yes it is for pocket legends as it directly effects your income in the game. Without the pl name or spacetime support it would be just another random gambling game.

I personally like the idea, but that may just be because I'm a Texas Holdem addict.

well take into consideration the age groups for PL. it is made up of at least 60% under 18, and if one person can make money one way, then everyone may think they should make money that way. in general will lead to mass gambling and the game getting bad rep

I love hearing opinions on ideas presented, it is true it could lead to a bad reputation but maybe they could put a limiter on it. No one under 18 (almost impossible to implement) and a limit on how much you can play a day. Maybe you could buy a one time ticket in game with platinum to allow you to be able to enter the casino. A high platinum price for the casino ticket would weed out a lot of people and you could also play it without linking accounts so no one is left out. I really don't know how they would do it and lol I'm a Texas hold em addict too. It is just an idea that has been in my head for awhile

I like the idea of gambling, but it generally never goes well. WoW had a casino early on and it was removed. GW even ditched the /roll command because people were running gambling rings with it.

Better to keep the focus on playing the game normally than have people get lost in gambling.

I would like to see anything really, just something that allows us to earn extra gold and have fun. Maybe we could have a Mario party style game instead, either way the potential for profit on spacetimes behalf is huge. The more they make the bigger the game gets so I am all for any idea that makes them more money.

Pokemon had a casino when it came out, and 99% of the people who played were under 18. XD Sorry, I had to.

Mystics not getting defensive :). Hes just rambling on like a mental old man ;). Jk Mystic.

Anyways, yeah the last thing the devs would do is add gambling. They are pretty much against it. Especially with how uptight parents are these days. Run this scenario through your head:

Jonnyboy is eight years old, he downloads Pocket Legends WITH his parents childproof approval.
Jonnyboy gets to the end of the game and shows his parents that he s gambling virtually.
Jonnyboy's super strict and uptight parents have a spazz attack, go mental and take Pocket Legends to court for months attempting to sue them for every penny they own for allowing their child to gamble.

^^ True story btw. Just not with Pocket Legends :o
