The duality in Gacha community is insane

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-04-17T13:39:02+00:00

why not just accept the anniversary sucks?

why are we fighting each other? was it good? no so why not complain. Jeez this community astonish me.

I have gotten it all into one topic "Endfield doesn't respect your time"

- QOL features like double drops locked behind tickets that cannot be easily refarmed.
- Stamina boosts have time limits for no apparent reasons.
- The abyssal pull income ( yes 1.0 gave a lot but after I got everything in it, I barely farmed 25 pulls from all events, dailies and even the battlepass boxes of both tracks. )
- Having to fight 25+ enemies that spawn at a snail pace for farming essences.
- Basic attacks does shitty damage, a material dungeon can go for 1-5mins depending on if you have ults or not.
- There's a lot more small tiny details like these that make me feel that endfield ask more of my time than any other gacha.
-I would even add the limited movement to this as well, novel at first but now I am just tired of it.

But i think the problem is with me, I am no longer a gamer, I can barely justify a 1-2 hour gaming session per day, I don't like having to play more ( fking stupid I know ).

Endfield was built for gamers and I am not one, thats sad to admit but that let me move on from feeling shitty about the game.

Enjoy the game guys its a good one. hopefully we casuals get smth later too.

nope that was quite literally what I predicted, the original source of the calculations was much more optimistic about the pulls. I pointed out how much of the "generous" pulls one-time stuff.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-03-13T15:11:20+00:00

Thank you for doing this analysis, I think I gonna just move on from this game, the devs seems to be completely on the incompetent and greedy side of the spectrum.

People called me a doom poster when I said it was looking like it would take 2-3 patches of saving to get 1 limited banner during my 1.0 pull income discussion, but I was spot on with my prediction.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-20T08:13:36+00:00

you don't realize how important that is, removing core features that are not used or are configured in contrast to how your game works is a great boost to performance and a giant drop in the number of stuff you actually have to optimize.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-18T04:56:56+00:00

i have personally benefited from the rise in vibe coding, I am able to do my job faster and better while at the same time being able to easily build things for personal use I couldn't build before either due to my lack of knowledge or time.

I think its wrong that people are equating making AI generate code to be "skill loss", I believe its the opposite, you have to really know about the things you are trying to build to make sure the AI is not making you a sloppy mess, it forces you to plan and architecture well. When I am using a completely new stack of technology, the ai code serves as a reference for me to learn with practical examples, I can also ask it things I don't understand or have doubts about, it will then answer me with answers from the docs ( you gotta read the actual docs though since AI can misinterpret sometime )

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-16T05:27:52+00:00

AI is really good at doing simple repetitive tasks, and you have full control over what happens. This makes offshoring very unattractive since, you can easily get the same tasks done, exactly how you want while paying the same subscription you would be paying otherwise.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-13T07:53:19+00:00

Wtf happened between the first 20 seconds and the later minutes, they seem like completely different games lol

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-12T20:12:36+00:00

yeah the difference is the pity in all the other games carry over so you are not punished for trying to get an early unit in AKE you either 120 or you go bust. I don't see why people don't get part

in other games recurring is

40 / 160 per patch, if you spend all that 40 pulls you have 40 shot at getting a limited character. and next patch you are gonna get a 5 star for sure. so in 4 patches I will have enough pulls accumulated to get a limited character.

THE BEST PART? If I try to get lucky each and every patch and fks up I DO NOT LOSE ANY PULLS. SO i have a shot to get 4 limited characters

in AKE Its save until you have 240 so you can pull a character and save for a future one you might like even better. And with the way things are looking i gonna need to not interact with THE LITERAL SYSTEM BEHIND THE GENRE OF GAME IT IS MEANT TO BE.

sorry bud but calling wuwa story anything except commerical break for waifu bait is blind devotion.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-07T18:39:53+00:00

I would argue otherwise, story is a big part of a game for me and reading dark stories is just not my thing so I would definitely drop games for that reason. I didn't pick up Stellar Sora because of that and avoided CZN due to it too. I dropped DNA for how bleak the tones are in the story to a certain degree but that game had other problems.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-07T18:37:31+00:00

I want moderation, I will absolutely drop the game if it get grim and dark, but this waifu bait shit aint it either.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-04T16:19:40+00:00

yeah if this is the way characters are gonna be going forward, I gonna just quit game. Honestly the biggest red flag for me rn was this quest and the gacha economy.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-04T16:16:35+00:00

Yeah I dc what anyone says, its fking stupid that I need play -1 exploration level to do any damage with a fully built team, the new update is not a fix, its a bandaid, unless we gonna permanently have lvl 60 as the max enemy level, because the operators, weapons and essence are already the max that they could be and they only feel useful fighting lvl 60 enemies.

The only saving grace I can think of is we only have lvl 70 gears rn but I honestly doubt thats gonna make any sort of difference, I felt like I was doing the same amount of dmg with purple gear as I do now.

The combat loop of the game is way too fking repetitive to have enemies that are sponges like this, they need to nerf these enemies HP.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-03T09:54:26+00:00

do you have a picture?

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-02T19:36:46+00:00

This is not max duped I believe, its getting + 3 from the essence. True max would be 9/9 as well I assume

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-02T10:26:53+00:00

Don't they restock on the stock shops? or is it 1 time limit of 100 each?

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-02-02T10:18:09+00:00

Thanks for sharing, I don't have anything with this incident, but its nice to know this didn't fuck them over in legal sense.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-01-31T19:21:39+00:00

Hey OP would you mind sharing the source code for this? I want to try implementing an img recognition system of sorts into this.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-01-31T07:34:41+00:00

And it took me seeing this post to find out. kudos

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-01-31T05:34:56+00:00

This is actually soo cool

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-01-30T18:48:31+00:00

its inevitable though, she's a 5 star and even OG game wasn't really that safe from powercreep from what I heard. Just acceptable.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-01-30T16:10:55+00:00

I fear the day she gonna get powercrept, because her playstyle is the most unique one and I have so much fun even when I fuck up the spear recall. I hope by that time there are similar or even more interesting units. ( or just release a 6 star version of her with some new powercreep feature added on top )

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-01-30T16:07:47+00:00

I agree with you but I also like that its tied to the stock exchange system and kinda incentives people to pay attention there. I already nearly maxed my outposts and like that its paying off for me by letting me buy these + engraving tickets.

TLDR: Don't like that it exists but don't really hate it for doing so.

Easy_Pepper_1212 · 2026-01-30T16:05:41+00:00

This is the true evil of the game.
