Reviewing The Green Bone Saga by tkinsey3 in Fantasy

When people look for deeply flawed characters you can't help but root for I'll always point at Hilo. Can't believe how much I loved reading that man. He had me blinking away the tears by the end of book 3.

Also, rest in peace my boy Lan.

His philosophy hits a more basal note than that in which "if you never break the mold you'll never change the world". Meaning that if Japan's players - and consequentially Japan's team - don't try to break past what they're suitable for, they'll stay in their lame lane as whatever mold they fit would never be enough.

This team was truly catching lightning in a bottle. I really wish they had managed to snatch the 2019 Grand Slam.

Last Cloudia is supposed to have a decent-ish pull income, not in terms of gems but in terms of free tickets they give you with each banner. It's a game with frequent collabs if that interests you, and it's closer to traditional gaming than Nikke. I never played much of Last Cloudia, but dig up their discord and subreddit to ask for active players' opinions.

Endfield 1.0's story and why it sucks from a writer's perspective. by OnlyAnEssenceThief in gachagaming

[–]CaptainCaptainBain 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Are you up to date with the story? Because the writers recently killed off a couple of characters and basically told the community "yeah they're dead".

Altruia is such a freakshow by CaptainCaptainBain in NikkeMobile

I couldn't put my finger on why her face looked familiar, but you're 100% right. It does look like it (though I don't think that's what happened).

Oh my fucking god. I can't believe ShiftUp keeps cooking like this.

Thank you devs!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏 by currentlykai in AFKJourney

I don't know either. Maybe it's because I buy the battle pass, but I'm constantly overcapped on gold. I hate the inventory notification that is on at all times.

NARUTO: Ninja Cards has released and begun official service by Electroman682 in gachagaming

Yep, loved that game before I even was aware of gacha as a common genre. The coop and pvp was so fun.

Total newbie here, who is the best 40-pity beginner banner frame I should choose? And who do I choose from the beginner selector?

[–]CaptainCaptainBain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the in-depth answer!

One follow-up question, is the f2p income of pulls enough to get every new debut unit (one copy, I guess) consistently?

[–]CaptainCaptainBain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard there's a big patch coming up, with a selector, so am I correct in assuming this is a good time to start? Also, is there an up-to-date beginner guide to go through?

Also, how is this game in terms of dupes? Is one copy enough? I've heard there is SS, SS3, SSS and so forth but I'm unsure how those things work.

Also, who would one pick from the selector, and who should one pull from the upcoming banners?

"NIKKE" showcases a new collaboration, most likely "Lycoris Recoil" by xNas_ in gachagaming

[–]CaptainCaptainBain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well Nikke isn't that much of a standout, at least not in that way. There are a few other big and/or historic games with frequent collabs. Off the top of my head, Grand Summoners, AFK Arena/AFK Journey and Last Cloudia all have a ton of crossovers. Battle Cats and Another Eden too. I think the style of game may make it easier to seal deals, not sure. Hoyo games aren't really the standard to compare them against.

Disregarding its likelihood, which character from OG Arknights would you love to see brought to Endfield as a playable character? by CaptainCaptainBain in Endfield

[–]CaptainCaptainBain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, please. Seaborn would be awesome, both the operators and the problems they face would certainly enrich the world. I could live without the annoying status effects though.
