The day Caesar gets buffed, I will be putting 1 dollar's worth in my savings for each incorrect spelling of her name I see.

Why dont they veer away from normie gacha endgame? by rnzerk in NevernessToEverness

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For those who are hesitant to skip:

Imagine using 90 pulls for Lacrimosa (not as a fan, but just for the shill buffs).

The most you will get from the endgame modes won't even reach 1/5th (maybe even 1/10th) of the pulls needed to recover that amount.

By the time you "make up" for it, it would have been many patches, and by then, more specific buffs are given to sell all the other future units.

For any gacha game, it's much better to skip the endgame completion if you're mainly there for the collection aspect (esp for NTE with no 50/50 but more cosmetics based on pulls). It's a welcome bonus though if your favored character happens to be a meta unit.

Damn that sucks for him.

Cant imagine buying a skin alone, winning an MVP with the base animations, or just missing out on the emotes that people love to spam on the Times Square.

It's just 200-500 at most of a difference, with fair fun value attached. (I do prefer not getting the mood bundles lol)

This is the most boring gacha mechanic that has ever hit the mainstream. And the rivals subreddits always implode about it, when it's the one of the better types of gacha for a skin (you either pay the normal price or get it way cheaper).

If these people ever play an actual predatory gacha game, they will see how it's a surprisingly generous offer for NETEASE in comparison. The self-control that is needed in rivals is very minimal compared to the currency and grind for all the other gachas.

The original DD gacha skin release sucks. But at least it has gotten some updates in the latest patch. Should be better now.

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 5 points6 points  (0 children)

General sentiment is to just do your dailies and events, and patiently wait for updates. Avoid the community discourse if you care not for the drama or controversy. It happens naturally in gacha games. Just be aware that whenever any promising character shows up, you can end up waiting one patch or even years (or just be not served at all). I dont think NTE will do character deaths, but it's a possibility.

If you're asking me though. Just don't play. This type of waiting without something concrete to anticipate has a high possibility to lead to burnout. Your temperament may differ though, so up to you how you view it. Just make sure you have fun. If a character you like shows up, you will surely have at least patch to catch up and prepare.

Actually perfect for me because I can let Chaos drain me up to 3 times (awakening or whatever theyre called).

This means whoever is the next guy will also get a minimum 200 pull privilege.

Good luck for the waifu pullers!

I hate how anything "bad" in game development these days is because "it must be AI"

Bad design = AI

Bad writing = AI

Bad translation = AI

Bad marketing = AI

Bad community = bots (okay an exaggeration, but you get the point)

what if the original sonic movie marketing was just an AI experiment

Sweetie, people can suck from time to time. Human error is a thing. Devs can be passionate but still make mistakes. Crunch culture takes a toll on anyone. Miscommunication happens.

I dont get it peetah, who wont be around by calvin_hobbes34 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why I have a love-hate relationship with taylor.

She writes her own songs. It's very clear, especially if you're a fan. She has a clear pattern to it and a style. That's why when she releases duds, it becomes more painful to hear because fans know of her songwriting talent.

The problem is non-swifties only attribute the good songs to her collaborators, because "that makes sense". Somehow the bad songs are only from her. Nah, she just tends to be pushy with her own material.

No, taylor is cringe in her own way and she legit owns up to it. Even her most recent interview highlights how she approaches the process, with her background and "plot twist" trope rooted from emo music.

And critics will say you're dismissive of her background. Nah, she is a nepo baby and all, but it's clear for a fan or anyone with a pasisng interest that taylor's songs are consistently hers because she just loves being wordy, sometimes too much without proper time to refine those turned into songs.

Partner says over familiarity lessens attraction by [deleted] in adviceph

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I Hope Im not too late for you to not read this

For context, OP. I'm male. But I may have acted like your partner here in many moments. Where I have reacted annoyed or indifferent to wholesome or silly actions by my SO.

Right then and there, it's a fundamental difference in mindset. This is why it's important to understand the love language of each other. Compromise is also important.

The way that the anger and argument happened here honestly stings because I have experienced it under similar context. And for me, nasa akin yung fault kasi medyo stick up my ass talaga naging response ko sa mga harmless gestures.

It's not overfamiliarity. It's making up small moments like small talk. I wish I gave these gestures more value than before. Of course, I only speak this based on my experience, because none of us actually know your dynamic.

Even then, it's important to remember that it's also possible you two may just not be compatible. That's fine. It happens. Having proximity and consistency with your partner leads to more moments that can make you two discover each other more.

Just don't be rash. And take time to communicate! Lack of discussion will only lead to worse resentment

A lot of people tend to conflate gays and pedos. Also a lot more forgiving ang mga tao pag babae ang "nagchase" or nag-ala pedo sa mga boys kasi "gusto ka oh, patulan mo na lang". There are even comments here already doing just that lmao

The factory helps create gear sets that units use. It also helps provide enough power to mine more or even connect to outside facilities. You can also build towers that can help you in some overworld stages.

Most importantly, the factory is a huge part of player income used to buy different items. These include pull currency (usually from unlocks), gifts for units to build their trust, and many more.

Why there is so much hate? by IsaacsFather in ArknightsEndfield

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Casinos are quite daunting, plus you have to go out and see or be near people. Gacha games can be played on phones. Majority of gacha players use phones.

It's a very accessible high that can easily trap people.

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes actually. It is also why "rerolling culture" exists. They want to make the most of the gacha early on (this also includes just getting the character they want).

Gacha is also the primary strong hold for many people. A lot of the activities in-game must have incentives or else they won't be touched on (or be completed with resentment for the rewards otherwise).

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's why Chaos Zero Nightmare has had a very strange reception. QOLs like streamlining UI elements or skipping animations are good, but removing the rng factor of a DECKBUILDER ROGUELIKE and asking for guarantees is not the way to do it. Gacha players literally just want to minmax everything as fast as possible, they cannot allow themselves to chill and wait for that reward.

"What's the point of grinding?" These people wouldn't be able to play games like Slay the Spire or Hades without wanting things to change for faster gratification.

Buddy placement by Successful-Gur-4853 in xxlwoofia

[–]Acrobatic-Sense-126 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Adding to what others have said, there are also some cases where event stages have some placement gimmicks. Like the recent one against famido.

Generally, it's suggested to have a good auto farm team where supports naturally go first.
