I'm not sure if you were guaranteed rare/legendary cards on the last journey but if that was the case then yeah, it's a lil bit sad.
Did the devs give any guarantees for this one..?
If they didn't then we can't actually do anything but still they should've known that dedicated people of this game would spot the difference of this journey's rewards (coming at the same price), a sneaky blow imo... not a devastating one really but it leaves a bad taste.
I was beginning to wonder if I had upset the gods of RNG again, or whether it was just another sneaky CDPR stealth nerf to rewards. With only my own small sample size, I couldn't tell, but hearing that more people are seeing the same thing makes me suspicious.
For the Geralt journey, the mystery cards I received were 0 Commons, 12 Rares (5 being premiums), 4 Epics (2 being premiums) and the 1 guaranteed premium Legendary at level 94. This was for all levels between 22 and 100, I'm not sure if there were any mystery card rewards before level 22 as I don't have screenshots for them.
This Ciri journey so far (level 67) I have had 12 Commons (4 being premiums) and nothing else.
I also went back to check the daily login cards I had received since the start of April. I had 2 Epics in early April, 2 Rares in late May, 3 Rares at the start of July, and only Common cards since then. So that's 43 cards in total since the start of April with 36 Commons, 5 Rares and 2 Epics. So I'd call that slightly suspicious, but very inconclusive.
Only CDPR know for sure if they have lowered the drop rates for higher rarity cards in the journey and possibly the daily login bonuses too. It doesn't look good for the Ciri journey though at this stage. Just another thing to make future journey purchases that bit less appealing. Way to slowly strangle the golden goose CDPR ....
