As for the games, I meant that pvz2 is a masterpiece comparing to all these abominations. PvZ 2 is going downhill though. Becoming more and more pay to win. I like how you used to protect this game and now you're so negative. It surely will be pay to win if stages get impossible with level 1 or even level 3 plants, but currently it's fine.

I'm not being "so negative". I'm just staing the obvious, they added the levelling up system which I'm not a fan of as it's permanent and ruins the challenge of the game, you also have to grind for it so much which is not fun at all and they also ruined the difficulty of the previous levels by increasing the health of many zombies which means levelling up plants has become essential to beat levels.

I used to defend the game because people used to be overly negative, childish and bash popcap for no good reason. I've never bashed popcap.I know they're people just doing what they love and trying to earn a living out of this game. And if you remember I used to defend the game because people complained about the difficulty of the DA and BWB levels, whereas I enjoyed the challange and completed them with ease except for a few extremely unfair ones (BWB day 16). So the game for me at least was fun and challenging. So I used to "protect" the challenge of the game and that's exactly what I'm doing now. I'm trying to protect the game from becoming pay to win and from the levelling up system ruining the challenge of the game.

So I'm concerned about this game, that's all. I liked everything about this game before they started doing things like, giving us all the world keys from the get go and removing the gargantuar statues and changing all the zomboss podiums and making them inconsistent. I didn't care about these things that much because they don't affect the challenge and fun of the levels until they added the levelling up system. And I'm not the only person with these views, my relative who has been playing this game for a long time recetly said to me that the game has become boring.

Are you saying that after they ramped up the zombies' health, all levels can be done with only level 1 plants? Has anyone tested that? What about the locked and loaded and conveyer belt levels. Big wave beach day 16? Wouldn't that become impossible? Maybe the other levels can still be done with powerful plants like the winter melon which I don't like using in regular levels. This ruins the diversity of plants I like to bring in each level and the gameplay would become boring with me using only wintermelon in every level. These are real concerns I have.
