I have to be honest. I am really tired of the random drop eggs. I have been a devoted player for many many months and still lack the Alicorn. I did not get excited about the new dragon egg because I know the pattern. it is a very slim chance I will get it considering my experience with the game.
A devoted player, who has given so much time to the game, should be able to obtain the egg without spending a lot of money or hoping to be one of the few that recieves a lucky "drop".
The game play has to change or many are destined to leave.
Everyone deletes games when they stop being fun.
