So, im a cheapskate kind of player, but after almost 3k hours of Gwent, i decided to spend money on it, with the Journey pass.
Im the minority, that actually waited and leveled up past level 100, only then i bought the premium pass. I already knew i would get all the rewards retroactively, but itwas overwhelming:
-Instantly got 82RP, 10 kegs, a few resources i probably missed and a sh**ton of trinkets
-Part of the reason i bought Premium was actually to get access to the premium quests and contracts, that would keep me busy for awhile... only to find out i had already done every single premium quest up to week 10 by accident (i never even took a look at them, only the basic ones)
-I also instantly leveled up journey from 127 to 152, which is 25levels, which made me panic, thinking i accidentally bought the more expensive skip 25 levels pass, but then i realized it was from all the crowns from the premium quests
-I have to say this wasnt as rewarding though, getting all those trinkets at the same time is overwhelming and then you can only use one at a time, you end up feeling like you got way more than you needed, the players who progress with premium from the start probably get a better experience by gradually obtaining the rewards
