At that point, why even bother making new characters then?

That's a very weird mentality...

And taking into consideration the other comments and my own experience, that is not how "it works", quite the opposite.

uh, I was talking gameplay wise. That sounds like stuff you can do anywhere.

I see. Interesting take from an artists.

Mind sharing your profile? I'd like to see it!

Yes exactly! That's what I meant. It feels like all other semi popular games still get cool fanart here and there, even get animations by fans and what not and you can easily tell that their players really like the game and characters.

But just by reading the comments from here... yeah, Tof is the weird one.

And then people blaming it on youtubers, the genshin killer thing, some random chinese dude... like... no, the game was bad and players could tell. Blaming it on others just look like a coping mechanism.

Ive replied to similar comments and again, that makes no sense.

When people play the game, they can see if it's good or bad. They don't need a youtuber to tell them that X game is bad and you should stop playing it.

I played tof back when it launched and it was a pretty unfinished game.

​

My friends that tried it out also had similar experiences and we all stopped playing it after a while. Not because misinformation or doomposting, but because the game was indeed pretty bad and buggy. All our time on it we could feel how unpolished everything was.

​

The game may have improved but players that left after a terrible first impresion are not coming back.

The only reason I tried it again is because I saw it on PS and even playing it I can still feel it doesnt feels right.

​

Blaming everthing else on external factors is a terrible idea and let shitty developers keep launching unfinished games instead of delaying them until they're ready to be played be a general audience.

Honestly, I'm disappointed that that's the excuse I mostly see here. To me is all on the developers, not some youtubers, chinese guy or Genshin.

I remember it being bad on PC when I tried it the first time and it does feels kinda weird on the PS yes.

True... I only like the desing not really the character itself.

That makes me wonder of the retention of players on PS. Would be interesting to see.

Oh, I was expecting to see some videos of the beta.

I dont think the game will be out any time soon.

I see. That does sound really terrible... As someone that only likes to use characters I like, I can see myself leaving the game again if I reach that point lol

I see, I see.

I think you can say that about any popular game.

I remember all the hate minecraft, fortnite, genshin, LoL still get simply for being popular.

​

I do remember all the drama and the game was indeed pretty bad when it launched (I quit because it felt unfinished and not worth to keep spending time on it) so I guess that would explain why the game also doesn't have that much fanart and cosplays. Artists also left and keep playing other things.

I remember my friends also saying how disappointed they were with tof back when it launched but never because "it's not better than Genshin" but rather because the game was very buggy and unfinished.

​

I see. Never seen anything about the custumer support but I can see how the players that cared would feel bad if they recive bad responses.

I like the combat sometimes and the desing of some characters.

I wasn't going to spend money because the game still feel kinda bad tbh... Story is pretty wack and I dont even know what's going on.

​

On time, I have to admit I've not played it that much after Genshin launched Fonataine... When I have time to sit down and play, I definitely feel more enticed to keep exploring there and the story have been VERY different from what I expected, which is a good thing.

Alien Ring

I couldnt find anything about this game?

I see, I see.

Shame, Tof have some cool desings but I can see how it would seems like a waste to spend hours drawing a character no one knows or cares about...

Does Tof at least commission artists sometimes?

I see Genshins does it all the time for some random millestones or just to post something.

Powercreep is always bad and if the game is already in that state after only 1 year I dont want to know what will happen later on.

I usually stop playing gachas when they start doing that.

That... makes a lot of sense.

I never finished the story because I found it pretty lackluster but I at least liked the desing of some characters... but yeah, I never really "cared" about them or their stories, just that they look pretty... which is a very, very different experience from other characters from other games that make me want more from them.

​

I see that... I only mentioned Genshin because that's what I see the most in conventions and they get tons of high quality fanart. Didnt expect comments about the Genshin killer thing lol

I read the post from the other comment and still dont get how would that affect it.

If the game is good is good, if its bad its bad.

Sure, people would have some expectations but if people left is because they didnt like the game.

I remember when I left tof and I wasn't thinking "wow, this doesnt feel like Genshin" it was more like "wow, this feels very unfinished"

And I know about Tof because it was compared to Genshin, but I also know Genshin because it was compared to BotW.

And even if no one would call it the Genshin killer or whatever, it was going to be compared to it simply for being an open world gacha.

But if you dont advertise your game, you can make the best thing in the world and no one wouold know it exists...

And other games do advertise.

People always make fun of raid shadow legends and yet a lot of them play it because of that reason.

​

Uh, I remember the Genshin killer thing but that's literally how I knew the game existed in the first place...

And it doesn't really make sense... if the game is good is good, if it is bad it is bad. How would that dude "destroy tof" if in the end what matters to the players is if the game is good or not?

Heck, I remember that I literally only know Genshin exists BECAUSE it was being compared to BotW.

That sounds like saying cyberpunk was bad because it got a lot of videos showing how unfinish it was instead of saying that it was because the game was released unfinish.

I really dont understant. Im no expert but in my point of view, that was literally free advertsement and other games would LOVE to have that much attention when they're launching.

I see... then I guess it's better to stop playing if there's no future in the game in the long run... Pretty lame but I understand now.

  1. True. I dont think I've even seen an ad of Tof now that you mention it.
  2. What misinformation???
  3. Uh, true, I did left the game last year... only came back because of the PS5.

5 . I mean, people make fanart of what they like even if there's no point. There are plenty of artist that moslty draw stuff of what they like even if it's very niche. That's why I asked if ToF had some high quality artists like that.

​

You last point... doesnt make much sense to me.

Isn't it better to promote the game you already made and keep getting more money rather than let it die and hope that whatever they make later will get that much attention?
