What most are saying is very true. Years ago when episode came out it was a fun game where in some stories the choices DO matter. And it lead to some exciting endings. Hell you could even make your own stories if you under-stood the mechanics to do so. But now as I'm typing this out...it's a shell of it's formers self. You have to spend money under to make any real choice. Spoiler alert the VIP is no different. The only difference is that you can earn gems by watching ads is possible...WITH VIP!
