1. "All plants can be obtained without paying real money". Wrong. The only plant that requires real money to unlock is the Cherry Bomb (along with the turbo feature)

2. "Chinese version is full of "features" designed to nickel-and-dime you out of every penny." Don't forget that the international version is also like that (just different in certain aspects).

While in the Chinese version they want to force you to pay, you can bypass all of them and unlock each plant (except for Cherry Bomb) with grinding. But in our version, there's no way to obtain the Premium Plants for free.

3. The worst thing (IMO) in the Chinese version is that even though there are two types of currencies (gems and coins), everything in the game requires gems.

The coins are virtually useless. Nothing in the game except for unlocking five plants needs those damn coins. I have about a million coins which is completely useless and after the latest update, there is no way to get those free gems.
