NEXO Knights is another LEGO example of Screwing their buyers

The cool thing about ALL things NEXO Knights by LEGO and purchasing the toy sets, comics, books and magazines with the brilliant Knights was that you could gain special powers with all sorts of cool things inside the Android App.

So after you spend all that money to collect everything, LEGO Group just comes in and decides to completely shut down the app.

And you can no longer play at all. What’s the point?

They could have easily made it so you can keep a single player version on your phone, so you can keep playing whenever you wanted to.

It’s a shitty decision, with no justification whatsoever. They just do it because they don’t care at all about their customers.

LEGO EV3 and their horrible practices

EV3 Programming app (all platforms) 1. March 2021 (Replaced by EV3 Classroom app)
EV3 Lab (all installers) None – under retired products
EV3 Classroom (all platforms) 30. June 2023
EV3 Python experience 30. June 2023”

^^ soon to end.

I hope they will keep the app alive.

If they close all access for good, then why the fuck did all of us buy the lego robots, in the first place, if we won’t be able to program them?

Very sad to see LEGO pulling off something like this.

What’s the point in buying any more of their Toys-To-Life sets, if they keep doing this?

The value of each Lego set purchased goes down by at least 60% after the app is closed.

We’ve started writing Lore when I was at the University

I think it was in the first year, actually.

Wow, it’s been quite a while since then.

I remember that in the summer of 2008, we (Luci and I) were filming Lore as a horror/fantasy movie, and then as a TV Show with a couple of actors we found.

So the initial script dates waaaaay back.

Somewhen in 2008 or 2009 we also had the big idea with the world-shifting changes and with the Clock Maker.

58,604 words written until today (the official build) …. each chapter had lots of variants and re-writes.

But we’ll soon have the Beta out.

15 years in the making. Wow. That’s something!

2 Codes 3 Codes

Important to Know: 2 Codes and 3 Codes customers (Sumo-lings) will ALSO get Co-Branding capabilities via Web Dev Kit features, as well as better control over every single ZIP file they install … and great benefits for agency owners.

Co-Branding is NOT full Whitelabel. It’s built for agencies. You can see everything about it here: https://howto12.squirrly.co/kb/web-dev-kit-all-plugin-customization-options/

We’ve created the Web Dev Kit for Co-Branding Capabilities, but also as a B I G request from agencies and developers who really wanted to offer their customers the absolute best – while also being able to install the plugin and monitor the clients from a single account.

Please take a look at this page https://plugin.squirrly.co/web-dev-kit-vs-agency/ – in the section where we compare the Web Dev Kit to the classic Agency plan we sell – for more details.

It’s important to note that the Web Dev Kit is NOT a white-label solution. As mentioned above, it is meant to provide co-branding capabilities (partial customization options).

The Web Dev Kit features are for co-branding only, NOT for completely removing Squirrly branding.

It wouldn’t be useful to agencies anyway, because customers would not believe an agency has sufficient manpower, budget (we’ve spent over $2 Million USD on our tech) and talent to build algorithms for machine learning and do the kind of big data analysis that Squirrly does, so it’s good that they know Squirrly is the data provider and your agency is the one implementing the service for them.
