Didn’t think this needed to be said re: Drops, but they’re actually healthy for the game…

More exposure is always a good thing both short term financially and long-term for the player count boost, however small it may actually be.

The drops being doodoo is also a good thing, such that they're not handing out broken gifts that we have to weed out in the coming weeks (see the infamous BP Christmas gift, or being gifted a GL40 or something along those lines).

Yes, the game is taking a beating performance wise. Yes, BSG's inability to prepare for and ramp up as needed is disappointing given these woes not even being new (see: every single Twitch Drops event prior). But I'll gladly take this if it provides extra funds for production (hopefully optimization in itself) as well as a health player population both immediately as well as however many newbies keep playing well into 2022+.

Lastly, the 22 hours auto-claim necessity is genuinely absurd – but it is what it is.

I'll take my downvotes fresh with a can of sprats, thx. Oh, and y'all got any of them purple baubles?? /scratches neck feverishly/
