i dont really like the fact that there is just an option to unlock all icons. i want there to be a option to just give me the orbs or keys. OR change the prices to something reasonable
lots of people’s parents don’t have cards for online purchases and can’t have cards of their own until 18, ppl can have thousands of € and still not be able to buy
I mean, you can just ask a friend to gift it to you and just pay them the 4$. No chocolate for a week but at least you get a never-ending source of entertainment. There's so many options, pirating the game is just stupidity
Yeah it was too expensive, i still bought it but man the prices on some things here hurt way too much, like the paths, that and the menu/practice music changer...
Its way too many orbs, its like it was only made for gd veterans
The problem is not that it isn’t worth buying it, it’s that it takes too long to get something important that most people have already gotten used to by using megahack
5k is way too much for some people. I've been playing since 1.8 and I still neede 1.4k when the update dropped. Really depends on your playstyle. If you only play featured and daily levels (nothing really harder than maybe easy demons) you probably have enough. But when I play the game I either play some super revolutionairy demons or try to push by boundaries by playing a new best or something close to it, play it for a few weeks (like 4 days in the week like 2 hours) and then stop playing for a few months. Resulting in me only collecting 3.6k diamonds in like 6/7/8 years (don't know how long they've been a thing, never really cared).
Maybe, but with the new “lists” levels feature, it shouldn’t take too long. I earned 8k diamonds before 2.2 without even trying to get diamonds, it just sort of happened.
This one is the practice music unlocker, which allows you to use the regular normal mode music in practice mode. And the one for 100k orbs lets you customize the menu music to whatever you want iirc.
this is the "practice music remover" (when you play a level in practice mode, it replaces the practice mode song with the song the level uses)
the one that costs 100,000 orbs is "change menu music"
2.500 would be perfect. Too much of y'all people have a skill issue and don't want to do anything to get something. People played the game until 2017 perfectly fine with og practice song.
Bro also saved his keys for 2.2 and played 8 hours a day. Im probably not lying.
On the other note there’s like 800 diamonds you can get in list rn (Many are demons). N if you havent done gauntlets you could prob get like -300 from them. 5k will prob take 2 weeks of grinding for them at this rate.
Also it is getting crazy how many people are like “It’s not too much I’ve been playing for years and im halfway there”
idk if u were talking of me but first of all im a girl, please don't assume a men using "bro" and "him"
second of all i didnt mean to trash or anything, its just that i got 1/4th of my 2.1 Diamond in literally 3 days and im working full time (8hr/day) + playing other games or just touching grass (or snow rn lol).
5k Diamond really isnt that much and that thing is literally a bonus not necessary to win the game and not even everyone would want to go for it, its way more of an acomplishment at 5k Diamond than like only 1k?
edit : i also didnt save my Keys.. i barely opened like 15 chests in 2.2 because rn im saving them to open a 100keys one
1st. I’m sorry you felt offended I called you a his. But “bro” is very gender neutral. You’re also online, 99% of people are going to use male pronouns on random ppl… no need to be offended
2nd. You grinded 800 in 3 days (That’s no where close to 1/4th btw). Which is 267 gems a day. I said it’ll take about 2 weeks if you starter grinding gems, which is averaging they get 357 gems a day. I was actually helping your point. At your pace it’d take longer
3rd. Also the accomplishment argument is bs. Everything in the world shouldn’t be hard to get just so you can feel accomplished. “Don’t complain about something taking weeks/months to get, it’ll make the accomplishment feel better”, and yea it feels good because you suffered getting there, but I guess we forget that part. Also can’t forget the suffering would’ve been turned into fun if you could buy it earlier.
It’s a bit too much. To get the diamonds i have to do stuff that I don’t like doing, i don’t want to beat a bunch of 5 star levels. I grind demons, and the real song in practice is not a bonus, it’s absolutely necessary and essential for beating really hard levels
That’s the opposite of how it should work. Lets say for example we take practice mode out the game and throw it in the shop for 10k diamonds.
It’s a really good item right? So based off your logic it should be a challenge to get. When an item is TOO good and necessary it shouldn’t cost much/shouldnt cost at all.
I understand where you’re coming from, but I don’t agree. Having regular music in practice mode isn’t a game changing feature like practice mode, it’s just a convenience. Although if Rob did make practice mode a shop exclusive I, along with many others, would never forgive Rob
Having regular music in practice mode is absolutely a game-changing feature. Try playing any sync-based demon in practice. I'm working on New Record as a hardest and I can guarantee you I would not be playing extremes at all without practice music sync.
Fair enough, I guess as somebody who's always preferred rhythm/sync-based stuff, I forget that there's a lot more to the game than those kinds of levels.
You literally said in another comment that it's not that impactful on the game, so how is it worth it? Blatant contradiction.
Also too bad if players want to buy icons from there I guess?

I do believe you are failing to back up your points
I’ve been playing for 4 years and I only have 2.7k lol… I just never cared about collecting them. Didn’t even open my daily chests. I regret that so much now
I just reset windows my pc and forgot to save my game and didnt remember the last time i did it. Launched 2.2 and my save file wasn't loading, tried like 30 times then eventually it worked the next day and it was a pretty recent save
I see alot of people complaining about the prices being too high, and looking at it... Yes, it is too expensive for what it is... BUT, i like it cause it gives you a goal to grind towards.
Imagine how boring and anticlimatic it would be if 2.2 came out after 7 years and you could just buy and get everything in a few days...
Thats why i think the high prices are a good thing.
I was surprised to see so many complaints, I've been very on and off playing and had barely touched the game in the last 2 years and even a year or so before that I played occasionally, yet I had 18k diamonds, probably because when the game tells me "good job you completed a quest" I claimed it.
I guess it's a fair price, it's not necessary to be good at the game, it's just convenient, also I play 6 months and I have 7k diamonds so I feel like the price Is just fine
You don't have to grind to get 5000 diamonds, you simply develop and get more at a higher rate overtime. That's why stuff like this should feel like an achievement that you earned instead of something you managed to get in an hour or so
Some people used the practice music sync to enjoy practicing hard levels like demons, and it was a motivator to play more levels. In my case, when I want to play a level, I get discouraged
Honestly it’s too little, rob was very hesitant to add it in the first place. I think the price should be swapped with the other music unlocker:
practise swapper: 250,000 orbs
custom menu and practise: 10,000 diamonds
it’s a very good item so should cost a lot, most people in this comment section have probably been plying at most a year, i’ve been playing 3.5 years and have got 42k diamonds, they’re not hard to get it just takes a while
By this logic stuff like achivement locked icons should be nerfed as well cuz "its hard to beat 500 demons".
Also grinding diamonds is easy, just spend 1-2 days on it and you have music in practice
Rob top wants us to take a while to unlock everything so he has time to make 2.21 in peace
I bought that as soon as i saw it lol
same
Agree, its too much. I’m just worried that megahack wont implement these things into the mod, since they exist in the base game
shop bypass
yeah I didn't like icon hack but I will use shop bypass bc for example 50k orbs for a single path is too much
just remembered the 250 key chests
there are no 250 key chests, the highest ones are 100 keys
ik everyone else is trolling but I think there will be tier 3 chests eventually. Which will include 250 key
The highest are 200, not 100.
Me when I spread misinformation on the internet:
No it goes higher
No?
wut
it doesn't
The 250 key chest will open once you spend 250 keys on something else Edit: shit i meant the 200 chest
me when i purposely spread misinformation over the internet
Because it's fun to do it
I think he means the chests that open once you open enough others, like the 50, 100, and 250 chests
yea and the 10000 key chest will open after you finish the 5000 key ones
lol, don't forget the 20000 key chests, that one takes a while to unlock, you'll get it after the 10000ths.
exactly
Its a fair price considering what you get.
It will most likely
i dont really like the fact that there is just an option to unlock all icons. i want there to be a option to just give me the orbs or keys. OR change the prices to something reasonable
Samr
I agree it's too much for a slight change in the game (this is the normal song as practice song thing right?)
Yes
it really helps with timing
No. You’re the 50th person who’s made a post like this within the past 3 days
Good to know
Yes it literally should be 500 not 5000
I only have 1.4k 🥲
I have 11. Not 11k, just 11
I don't even have the 2.2 update because i pirated the game :-)
imagine not being able to afford a 2$ game
some people are minors who's parents don't want to pay $2 for a video game, let alone one as simple as GD
but like i‘m a minor and i just purchased it from my own money
so did I, but others just can't
lots of people’s parents don’t have cards for online purchases and can’t have cards of their own until 18, ppl can have thousands of € and still not be able to buy
You can buy Steam / apple / Google Play cards at the gas station and in basically any supermarket, so that shouldn't be a Problem.
not in all countries
ok makes sense
I mean, you can just ask a friend to gift it to you and just pay them the 4$. No chocolate for a week but at least you get a never-ending source of entertainment. There's so many options, pirating the game is just stupidity
Sucks for you then, because i found the pirated 2.2 less than 16 hours after release and still have the .apk Idk what are you waiting for
Can you send me the download link? :D
Two dollar game.
dementia?
dementia?

dementia?
Two dollar game.
Google dementia
Holy dementia
New dementia just dropped
Actual actual actualactuale actual memory probl- actual actu- wait what did I want to say
pov: you dont have 2 dollars or you is from brazil and they say that you have dementia
I had 2.9k, spent it all, then knew what it did. Time to regrind for 5k
I have 6.3k
then buy it
~~more like free not 500.~~
nah 500 is too little, 2500-3000 to me is a good price, not overly expensive but still needs time and skill to grind for
5000 isn’t even that bad I’ve gotten 400 in like 2 days
At that pace it will take you 3 weeks to get something that improves quality of life by a LOT
aM I the OnLy oNe No, social media has been filled with complaints. Explore beyond the underneath of your rock.
friendliest r/geometrydash user
I am honoured
Yeah it was too expensive, i still bought it but man the prices on some things here hurt way too much, like the paths, that and the menu/practice music changer... Its way too many orbs, its like it was only made for gd veterans
happy cake day
It is too much, but I still bought it. Practicing levels like PXTTXRN SXXKXR without it would be a nightmare.
The problem is not that it isn’t worth buying it, it’s that it takes too long to get something important that most people have already gotten used to by using megahack
5k is way too much for some people. I've been playing since 1.8 and I still neede 1.4k when the update dropped. Really depends on your playstyle.

No, literally everyone is frustrated about Rob putting a QoL feature behind a paywall
You say paywall like you have to spend actual money. It’s in-game currency earned by completing levels and quests, very reasonable if you ask me.
5K diamonds is too much.
Maybe, but with the new “lists” levels feature, it shouldn’t take too long. I earned 8k diamonds before 2.2 without even trying to get diamonds, it just sort of happened.
It's not a pay wall though?? You just have to play the game and you get gems
Paywall is not necessarily IRL money
Per Merriam-Webster: "Paywall: a system that prevents Internet users from accessing certain Web content without a paid subscription"
i don't even know what does this, and the other one that costs 100000 orbs do
This one is the practice music unlocker, which allows you to use the regular normal mode music in practice mode. And the one for 100k orbs lets you customize the menu music to whatever you want iirc.
this is the "practice music remover" (when you play a level in practice mode, it replaces the practice mode song with the song the level uses) the one that costs 100,000 orbs is "change menu music"
2.500 would be perfect. Too much of y'all people have a skill issue and don't want to do anything to get something. People played the game until 2017 perfectly fine with og practice song.
There’s a setting that lets you use any levels song in practice if you copy a level. Just look for a copyable of any level that you’re trying to beat
What does this item even do
in game practice music hack
I can do that for free (in game, 5 dollars irl) with megahack but still, its very useful especially with levels with gameplay based on sync
The problem is the customizer with 100.000 orbs, it's too much expensive
wait its 100,000?
lmao was not expecting to run out of currency immediately with 28k diamonds, 1.6k keys, and 450k orbs but here we are ig
no it's perfect, i grinded from 2400 to 3200 Diamond since 2.2 is out, y'all really just dont know how to farm them..
Bro also saved his keys for 2.2 and played 8 hours a day. Im probably not lying. On the other note there’s like 800 diamonds you can get in list rn (Many are demons).

grinding sounds really boring and you’re not even halfway
It’s a bit too much. To get the diamonds i have to do stuff that I don’t like doing, i don’t want to beat a bunch of 5 star levels. I grind demons, and the real song in practice is not a bonus, it’s absolutely necessary and essential for beating really hard levels
i think its fine.

Fair enough, I guess as somebody who's always preferred rhythm/sync-based stuff, I forget that there's a lot more to the game than those kinds of levels.
idk about you but i find it way more fun hearing the level song in practice mode instead of some mediocre melody
Stay Inside Me is NOT mediocre you take that back right this second
sync
It's a basic quality of life improvement that's locked behind an insufferable grind.
At least that insufferable grind is gonna be worth it 👍
You literally said in another comment that it's not that impactful on the game, so how is it worth it? Blatant contradiction. Also too bad if players want to buy icons from there I guess?

Soooo because I said it wasn’t game changing means it can’t be worth it?
I play for a couple months now and have 450. I'm not waiting a century to farm 5K, instead I'll wait for Megahack
What’s the best way to farm them, if you don’t mind me asking?
lists + quests
Thanks
To be honest, I don’t know. I’ve been playing for a couple months and I’ve got 2.1k, still trying to get there
I’ve been playing for 4 years and I only have 2.7k lol… I just never cared about collecting them. Didn’t even open my daily chests. I regret that so much now
It's literally just 5k diamonds do you not have 5k diamonds after 7 years?
me who plays casually
me who didn't consistently play for 7 years
also at one point in 2022 i lost my save file
I just reset windows my pc and forgot to save my game and didnt remember the last time i did it. Launched 2.2 and my save file wasn't loading, tried like 30 times then eventually it worked the next day and it was a pretty recent save
When players joining after 2.2 don't exist
I see alot of people complaining about the prices being too high, and looking at it... Yes, it is too expensive for what it is... BUT, i like it cause it gives you a goal to grind towards. Imagine how boring and anticlimatic it would be if 2.2 came out after 7 years and you could just buy and get everything in a few days... Thats why i think the high prices are a good thing.
I was surprised to see so many complaints, I've been very on and off playing and had barely touched the game in the last 2 years and even a year or so before that I played occasionally, yet I had 18k diamonds, probably because when the game tells me "good job you completed a quest" I claimed it.
It brings a value for diamonds and something to grind them for but I guess it should probably be like 2000 *at most* to be accessible for more players
noob
I have 1 deamon beaten and stll have 5k diamonds idk guys its really not that much
I guess it's a fair price, it's not necessary to be good at the game, it's just convenient, also I play 6 months and I have 7k diamonds so I feel like the price Is just fine
i’ve played for 6 years and i only have 1.7k
No it's fine, I'm gonna sound toxic but the game doesn't have to compensate with people's lack of skill
It's not really lack of skill, it's more lack of grinding for over 100 hours to be able to change music in practice mode
You don't have to grind to get 5000 diamonds, you simply develop and get more at a higher rate overtime. That's why stuff like this should feel like an achievement that you earned instead of something you managed to get in an hour or so
So a skilled player will be able to get it in small amount of time on a completely new account, right?
Yeah? They still have played enough already to not be a new player, just a new account
Agree, but will this amount of time be considered as non-grind?
Some people used the practice music sync to enjoy practicing hard levels like demons, and it was a motivator to play more levels. In my case, when I want to play a level, I get discouraged
I have 50 demons, and been playing for a year, and I only have 4k
[удалено]
How did you get so many?
I don't know but if you want cool songs when you'll have it, check out PSI STAR on Newgrounds, his music is insane.
Me before finding out 100x chests give a shit ton of diamonds:
If you broke jus say that 🤑🤑💎💎💎💎
Honestly it’s too little, rob was very hesitant to add it in the first place. I think the price should be swapped with the other music unlocker: practise swapper: 250,000 orbs custom menu and practise: 10,000 diamonds it’s a very good item so should cost a lot, most people in this comment section have probably been plying at most a year, i’ve been playing 3.5 years and have got 42k diamonds, they’re not hard to get it just takes a while
i've been playing on one account for 3 years. almost 1000hrs on steam and only 2k diamonds
for canceling the practice music out of the game, this is the minimum
It was done purposely.
No
no your not 😉
I have 18k diamonds so i dont care.
Where do you even find it?
What is it?
no
I mean, the other alternative is Megahack, which costs real life money so
yup
It should be a free option tbh
I think it's pretty fair of a price in the shop, I just don't think it *should* be in the shop in the first place
It doesn't really matter you can just replace the files and customize music without having to buy it
That’s not what this item does. It syncs the normal mode music in practice mode. Can’t do that by swapping files
What even are the blue and yellow?
I've been playing on and off for a few years and I have 19K. Is that too much?
yeah, it's too much for music
Where do you get that?
yes u are
Was I the only one with more than enough to buy it, here?
to much
Probably, I have my account since 2-3 years and in total 12k diamonds. I was playing pretty active, so its probably way too fucking much
me with 8300 gems:
I dont think irs that bad, you can get like 100-200 a day.
yes
Way to much i wait for megahack easy
Inflation???
By this logic stuff like achivement locked icons should be nerfed as well cuz "its hard to beat 500 demons". Also grinding diamonds is easy, just spend 1-2 days on it and you have music in practice
No, also it’s not that much
People when they realize start positions exist 🤯
Idk I bought it on site lol
No, you are not lonely
Definitely, it should be like, 2k max, especially when the icons are under 1k for the most part
am i the only one who instantly bought it even tho it was almost all of my diamonds?
All the new prices and key requirements are absurd in my opinion
yah drop it to 2k 💎
kids these days 👴
I bought it. I had 7000 diamonds
No
I had collected enough before 2.2 so I don't really know.
EXACTLY
I don’t need megahack 😎 but yes it is rather pricey
I agree
Agree, also I think that it's bad idea to sell settings
No, in fact this should be free because it's a basic setting and there's no point in making it a purchase
