Holiday Ops is just plain terrible this year.

1. All you have to do is collect resources twice and do your dailies.
2. The celebrity stuff is kinda cool, but it's all just accidentally doing missions and claiming predetermined mediocre rewards, so no fun there either.
3. After 2 days you get over 1/5 of the points required, so it's 10 days to complete all the atmosphere levels.
4. There are way fewer decorations for no apparent reason, so it's hard to decorate your village however you want, and it just becomes frustrating.
5. Even if you like the available ones, collecting decorations isn't fun, because you just upgrade the areas and get predetermined decorations. No brain required.
6. There is no incentive to even bother using decorations, and imo the stock garlands are the prettiest.

I don't know what happened, but it seems like wot blew their entire budget on a YouTube trailer and celebrities, so they had to cobble something together for the actual game with 5 bucks left… But then why not just take the holiday ops from last year or, even better, 2021? Or maybe they hope to make the event so boring, that people will search for fun in gambling with loot boxes? That's also pretty dumb…

R.I.P. Holiday Ops I guess 🙁
