I know this is beating a dead horse, but I came back from a hiatus to play some Subeta games. I played Gravedigger on easy and got 18 sP, okay. I played it on hard and got further and also got 18 sP, not so okay. Are game payouts ever going to make sense? It's these kinds of things that make me not log in for months on end...

The payments for that game in particular don't make sense to me. I can get to the bottom on hard and get maybe 2k, but have gotten 5k on easy before. You would think that hard would have a better reward for completing it but that's not the case.

And yeah, if you don't get to the bottom, you might as well reset because it's only the sP you collect on the way. It's all or nothing.

It's not just me! I've been so irritated with this game, I some how got a score of 4.6k but can't replicate it, even beating medium multiple times! All or nothing explains a lot.

Agreed, the payouts for most of the games are not worth the time investment. 2048 doesn't even pay out anything at all. And my favorite game, Tubular Tiles, hasn't worked in ages. Some of the others are buggy too. The games on here really need some work.

I saw a post from Keith (I think) some time ago. Sorting out games is way down the list of things to do - a nuisance for people who are trying to get the achievements.

There was a very short period in time where you could actually make functional sP with games alone. Sure not as much as questing or restocking, but enough to pay some training, buy a few nice things and such.

These days, you just can't get anywhere. And its hard to justify to yourself putting any of one's limited time into games. Either they're broken, have no payout at all, inconsistent payout, or way too little payout compared to time invested.

I'm a slow quester, but with even just an hour of time invested I can walk away with 5M sP. Investing an hour in games, I'm lucky to make 500K sP. And to do that, I'm not even playing the games I really enjoy, I'm playing the games that payout best and/or run quickest. If I play an hour worth of games I really love playing, I'd be walking away with something closer to 100K.

Yeah, I've never thought of games as big sP making tasks. I usually just play them until I have the achievements and then I'm done.

I don't even really care about them as a "money maker" since I don't play on Subeta much anymore, it's just the fact of the matter that playing it...isn't a rewarding use of my time. I like the games I play, but when you get less than 50 sp, it's just disappointing and unfun.
