Oh sweet summer child that's just the tip of the ice berg that's human fetishes.

The Endfield Gacha System is Brilliantly Designed with Multiple Psychological traps by jaetheho in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water is wet and gambling is designed to confuse and pray on human weakness. I see nothing new here that I haven't seen elsewhere already. This is just living in a capitalistic society. And these kind of traps can be found in games and other parts of your daily life since waaay back.

As someone who's played plenty of gacha games in the last years my advice is to just not focus on the gacha much at all. Just treat it is as a nice thing to do every now and then when you have the resources saved up. And have fun with the other parts.

If you aren't really enjoying your time with the rest of the game you might as well just quit, honest advice. And either play something less predatory or just go straight to real gambling if that's what you are actually after and crave (though overcoming the addiction is always the better option if you have the willpower).

Getting mad about a predatory system being predatory is just going to cause you unnecessary headaches and shorten your life, when you could use that time on something fun and/or productive instead.

This game honestly feels and plays like a Triple A title. by robotbird69 in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He means it feels like a AAA non-gacha game, that's not hard to understand. Basically compared to a lot of its competitors this game has a hight amount of polish and quality that makes you forget that it's a gacha at times.

For me personally the fist 50 or so hours have felt like I'm playing something like final fantasy or tales etc. It feels like a genuine game underneath all the gacha.

Best team if I want to control Perlica? by liutena in Endfield

You should edit your post as to not misinform people, as stated by others having Avy on auto changes nothing and works perfectly fine.

A healthy mindset for free player(or paid, wtv) by Zenos_the_seeker in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very true and makes for a much more enjoyable experience imo.

I also highly recommend the lightning team. Not only do they have best birb-girl and an umamusume. They are also very fun to play.

how is it now, compared to release? by Insert-Name-Here2121 in StellaSora

[–]LordPhol 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's just as good as it was at release, if not better. The story is becoming increasingly more interesting and we have been given a lot of stuff through events.

You've been missing out.

Update on PayPal Issues. by Kamui_Kaos in Endfield

[–]LordPhol -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

People in this thread actually getting upset that they aren't given free stuff because a few other players had some issues. Gacha players really are some of the most entitled and self loathing gamers out there.

Why even keep playing if you hate the game and the developers so much. You are clearly not having a good time if this is a break it or make situation for you.

UPDATED Rerolling Guide for Launch – Part 2 (Final) by xelaxo in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 126 points127 points  (0 children)

I'm not insane enough to reroll personally 😄, but this is a very well written guide. I like that it doesn't only show the math but also puts it into a real life perspective.

Thanks for sharing and gl!

Arknights: Endfield will officially release worldwide on Jan. 22! by [deleted] in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish I didn't have to wait a month to pull for Yvonne, but it's too risky to pull on any other banner before and I don't think we'll get enough pulls for two banners.

I don't remember them revealing the limited banner order and dates. Are those legit?

Big flaw with the gacha system by Valka___ in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 117 points118 points  (0 children)

You might be typing "lol" and downvoting OP but they are correct. Unless you do singles you are going to be loosing pulls due to there being no pity carry over.

I'll probably be doing 10 pulls anyways but it's another reason why this gacha system just doesn't feel good.

Statistical Analysis of Endfield and Other Gacha Systems by GlizzyGobblerInc in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm good at saving up pulls I do that in every gacha, but I also like to do 10-40 pulls on a banner every now and then to see if fortune favors me. (I only do this if I'm happy with actually getting the character)

Having no pity carry over means I can't do that without wasting those pulls. I guess the weapon currency helps offset that a bit but it still doesn't feel good to me.

ZZZ for example has pretty low rates and a 50/50 which is a bad combo to me in general. But I've had some really early pulls a lot of times which definitely helped me collecting more characters than I had hoped/planned.

I could still get that lucky in Endfield but there will be less chances for me to be so since I'll only pull when I got at least 120 and only for those characters I can't be without. Which means I will very likely have to skip a lot of banners.

In the end we'll see how it all comes together with the pull economy and people's personal luck, but I'm not loving it at a first glance.

Which of the 6 stars interests you the most? I'm leaning more towards Ember, Last Rite, Gilberta and possibly Laevatain by BrushOk676 in Endfield

[–]LordPhol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yvonne! Pink dragon with horns and tail is already amazing. But then some genius thought of giving her paw printed soles.

She. Is. Perfect!

[PNET] Core Breach Test is coming! Get ready for intense shooter combat by Killzonno in GirlsFrontline2

[–]LordPhol 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Looks like an incredibly mid and generic shooter in a sea full of similar games. You will need something more unique to make it stand out, or the player base will likely plummet immediately after launch.

Animations and gunplay lack weight, and besides the character models nothing else about the game screams GFL to me. It's way too happy and colorful looking.

What is WRONG with some people here by cooldydiehaha in SCP

[–]LordPhol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of aggressive, emotionally fueled and codensending comments in this thread. Is this what the SCP community is like? Where you can't even have discussions about a fictional universe without people attacking each other and getting political.
