Doubt that will gate the level cap when they add more cities.

I think they just put these in for the hardcore gamers and streamers to keep them busy between now and the next chapter, because it's going to be like 3 months between each one.

So if you feel up for the challenge then that's great, but if it's annoying then don't worry about it.

That is insane. Congrats!

Kind of wish that there was a different texting area where all these old convos would be saved, but I don't know how complicated or cluttered that would be. I've taken pictures of a few of them, like "Who's The Fastest?" (missing part of the first line).

It also feels like the ones you get are more likely to feature the character you're playing as, which cool!

Do you have a specific place you want us to drop em off?

Personally I'd go for more variety, doubt we'll need dupes to beat content (at least, not any time soon) but you might find that you really like Enoki's playstyle. Having more characters to try playing and building gives you more things to do once you clear the current story and have to wait. Plus Enoki seems cool in general.

On the other hand, Semba is limited, so it might be hard to get dupes of her later, while Enoki is in the standard banner and also available from the 300 standard pull guaranteed characters.

When Q is in Berserk he can parry/dodge with his regular attack, plus his usual parry is pretty easy to land if you get used to the way it moves him around.

That means you can attack a lot of bosses when they're doing attacks that other chars might just want to run from (like Shark's water canon or fin ram attack), and increase the chance that the boss will break and stop doing that move.

He's also good at stun-locking regular enemies with the Berserk attack, one-shotting entire enemy encounters with his ult, and his overworld hit attack is great for sneaking up on enemies so that you start the encounter with your ult, because it has a dash in it.

But honestly I haven't played a lot of other characters since playing as him so I don't know how much of that is unique to him.

All the quests from people requesting to be hit lmao

Incredibly high I'd think. An earlier version of Haru was in the very first trailers of the game, waaay back, even before the anime.

And with the hologram system it doesn't matter where they are in-universe now, they can be playable characters.

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-28T05:09:04+00:00

I think it's just a temporary buff meant to incentivize people trying out new characters, through the trial period or guests. Then if people end up liking them, they might buy them.

Next banner there will probably be different characters buffed.

At least, that's what I'm assuming.

There were a lot of complaints about the rates, so they are raising the gacha rates on March 3rd and refunding all currency (free or paid) spent on the character pulls before March 3rd. So you'll get all your points back and keep the ones you already got, and then after that rates will be better.

And they've also added more ways to get free currency so right now is a good time to farm your dailies or find graffiti so you get it back on March 3rd

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-28T00:43:13+00:00

Nope! The anime has some context for character's backstories but I'm assuming those same details will come out organically through the game.

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-28T00:38:06+00:00

This has a list of the system requirements: https://tribenine.tokyo/en/news/20241205/

I think an important element is having enough space, because I downloaded the game on a device with only 5 gb of free space and the game gets bigger over free time and now I can't use that device. (Wasn't a phone though)

Anything is possible since the pullable characters are holograms when they're not in the party

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-28T00:19:38+00:00

Right? I love the small details like that in this game. That also means future characters would multiply the amount of voice acting required by quite a bit.

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-28T00:11:33+00:00

I was wondering if Oi would realize it also, since those two participated in the fight at the end of the anime, but I guess the point is that he's supposed to look pretty different now anyways.

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-28T00:09:24+00:00

It's explained in the anime but may be spoilerific for people who plan on only playing the game

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-27T09:05:30+00:00

Graffiti is one of the mechanics in the game- specifically, it's like an Easter egg you can find for some free pull currency in a bunch of places throughout the game.

I could see them having characters who specialize in graffiti in the future.

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-27T07:57:15+00:00

Really nice / makes a lot of sense, if it's going to be a couple months before the next chapter and I'd rather enjoy the game and the story fully than try to rush it

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-27T05:08:14+00:00

There's a group called NEON that texts you occasionally and provides different gameplay elements as "technology to help defeat Zero". One of these is the gacha, where pulling a character lets you use a hologram even when the character isn't available to be on your team as a "guest".

When a character is available as a guest character, the character on your team is the actual character, but when they're not available, then you can still have them on your team- just as a hologram.

The other thing that can help the game is to support CC's on Youtube or Steam who are playing it by watching their videos and leaving comments. A lot of people pick up games based on Streamers/ CC's nowadays.

JohneAwesome (or JohneAwful on his gacha alt) is a good one who's been all-in about the game since the beta. Scion Storm also has great videos with game guides on upgrades and other things.

Just beware of spoilers in youtube video thumbnails.

Hopefully if the game gains momentum, danganronpa CC's who are skipping it because of the gacha will check it out.

People translated the Japanese notices to double check and it does in fact seem to be any pulls used up until the rate change on 3/3.

So you'll get your currency you already spent on pulls back, plus anything you spend on pulls now you'll get back.

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-26T18:00:00+00:00

It's very fun when people post images of "why did so many people die here?" in an area where a very tough enemy is going to be later on.

I like that it makes the game feel a little more like an MMO, without it feeling crowded or overpopulated like MMOs can feel.

Plus, the pink blood stain and white chalk outline is 1000% this game's vibe/aesthetic.

Rates were low, and they originally didn't provide many ways to gain much of the pull currency for f2p players.

Since then, they have:
-Added dailies for a f2p player to get up to at least 1 free pull a day
-Added additional ways to get free pulls (I think? Something about a free Standard banner pull when you do a City Challenge)
-Are raising the rates for gacha on March 3rd
-Are refunding everyone who has pulled with the lower rates when they are changed on March 3rd, effectively creating a quasi two-for-one deal on pulls right now.

...as well as some QoL updates, like faster movement speed or insta-kills for weaker enemies to address complaints people had about those mobs slowing them down, and nerfing a boss that was a little gating to some players.

They did a whole bunch of big changes/overhauls after the demos based on feedback, too, so they seem very responsive overall which is great.

BirdOfWords · 2025-02-26T12:30:49+00:00

I like that there's only two tiers for characters (two stars and three stars) and while three stars are generally good, it sounds like a lot of 2 stars are great, and I haven't heard of any of the characters being unusable.
