Agreed 100%.

Compared to the last two Christmases, these gifts seem... off. It's not big surprise that we have Green Ball and a Wobblebobble, however, it's weird how we have two Wobblebobbles this year, which seems like a waste of a gift slot.

At first glance, I hated the painting. However, it grew on me and the gift texture for it is great. So far, it's already my favorite Christmas gift for this year.

The Great Times Gift... oh boy. The gift texture is horrific imo. The content of the item is the Start Times Axe, which is a joke item. Even the person who made it, Creepercompany5, admits that it was supposed to be a joke. Jokes are fine in Lumber Tycoon 2 (look at Bold and Brash for example), however, the axe texture seems to have no effort put into it.

What bothers me the most is that the gifts are almost all retextures. Last year, 3/6 gifts were retextures, which is fine. The Candy Cane Axe, which was also a joke, had a beautiful texture which made the axe worthwhile to own. This year, 4/5 of the items are retextures, with the only new content being the painting.

But that is my two cents. Lumber Tycoon 2 will remain my favorite game in ROBLOX, and I still have faith that this year Christmas will have something worthwhile.
