I’ll grab them when I see them available. I’ve watched 3 so far, and this is my option

One more element that may be worth mentioning: given this developer’s history of QA, can we trust that whatever is sent to our phones through the ads truly has zero malware?
I believe this has to do with the regions’ and their own ads available. The first two ads I got were only 10 seconds portuguese ads for Facebook. Today I got another one and the last ad I’ve got was an english one and it really took 30 seconds to finish.

Took a few hours, and an icon appeared on the home screen next to the reward ads. I clicked and there was an ad to watch. So I’ll just wait till I see this icon, and not just wait for the 8 hour window.

I’ll be honest, and sorry for my language. But the only time I will watch these ads going forward will be when I’m on the toilet taking a number 2. Only then is it really worth collecting because I’m not really wasting my time.

I strongly disagree with this statement. In fact I would prefer a finished game version. And I have long ago reached the point, where something I started as a neat half hour distraction every once in a while has turned into an overladen mess, that barely allows for a day off.
The ones interested in new content are not the players, but the publisher, because a player, who has reached a definite end, is unlikely to spend money.
I would not hesitate to choose less content. Strip this game back down to a dozen kingdoms, PVP and maybe 100 creatures and leave it like that, and I’ll like it more.
(As a side note, muting your device while showing ads and not interacting with them does not sound like as much support towards the devs as you think it is. These sort of things tend to show up in analytics.)

I don’t get it though, if I had my phone on GoW while doing that I’d just do explore or something, forget these stupid ads …

I don’t play on mobile but would probably run the ads when taking a ‘bathroom break’ if I did, they bring in some revenue for the devs which is good I guess 
You get double crap rewards that way too

For those of you that are against the ads (whatever your reason), how much TIME have you spent reading and / or replying to this thread instead of “watching” an ad to support a game you obviously enjoy?

Instead of some random petty reward, how about we just get double rewards from our next tribute? Then it would scale evenly for everyone.

The exception doesn’t prove the rule here. If the players didn’t want the content, they wouldn’t play it, simple as that. Go into the search bar and type “request” and you’ll see you’re the minority in wanting less content. It certainly seems like circular logic to say the players who play the game don’t want new content, instead the developers are wanting it for them and the players are forced to sit and play the game until they’ve completed it against their wishes but they have to complete said content because they enjoy it and don’t enjoy it at the same time. New stuff is fun and there are a lot of fun games out there that don’t offer new content regularly so I imagine a lot of the people here feel the same way.
As to the analytics, if it really doesn’t improve their view count there are ways to make a player interact with an ad prior to giving rewards and if it changes in the future I’ll change my approach.
I’d watch some just to support the game but I’ve only gotten this screen ever since watching the 1st. Can’t watch something that isn’t offered to me

I watched 4 ads, and I received 100 gold each time. I know it’s only like 30 seconds or so, but it’s just not worth the time. For the time that it took to earn 400 gold, I could’ve played 2 PvP battles and earned a bunch of resources. The rewards should be improved, especially since you can only watch one ad every eight hours.

I will never watch ads but to be fair I’m VIP 10 so I’ve thrown them plenty of support. I hope they do get more support from more people and that it actually helps them make better content.
