Something that becomes obvious in the batch containing StarArena 052 is that: “You Get What You Pay For.” In search of a more economical manufacturing price, your game-smith ordered a “dozen” game portals from a printing giant. And I believe it can all be summed up with the word ‘Giant’, as this company specializes in large-scale operations. Rather than small, delicate precision work… Good-Price, But: No Quality Assurance!
