I too am concerned that zOMG will never come back.
I'm honestly gobsmacked that they went through all the trouble of inventing, coding, designing, etc. an entirely new system for "making" items when they had a perfectly good starting point with alchemy. Yeah it was frustrating, but had they just updated it instead of throwing this random ball of crap at us I think a lot of people would be so much happier. They could have easily implemented the charm system and made it as flashy as they pleased.
I don't understand the logic here. Why have two crappy systems when you could have a single decent one? GAIA, WHAT IS YOUR LOGIC?!
Logic is that it is easier to create a new system instead of fixing the old one, because those who played the old system will whine and cry that they wasted a lot (which they did) utilizing it.
Adding Alchemy items to the charms system is the carrot at the end of the rope. Anyone can see that if we don't succeed in this gold sink, those Alchemy exclusives will be lost on a system barely anyone can afford.
Gold sink for go fusion + the sharp increase of bundles and cash sales on bundles + zOMG down (for Alchemy) + Alchemy no longer feasible for a majority of users = Gaias covert way of making us pay to fix their system.
