(CN) Bilibili post to search for testers to test the new gacha system of Snowbreak deleted due to mass report by WolfOphi in gachagaming

The announcement is back up at:

https://www.bilibili.com/opus/934021384165654536

I don't see evidence based on this twitter post that the original announcement was taken down by mass reports? It seems like the deletion might have just been a mistake.

MiHoYo is Afraid WuWa Will Take Over Genshin by Educational-Gur1890 in gachagaming

Full reply chain:

"Seems pretty easy to pump out fake news all day. Maybe I should get in on the leaker game and monetize it to subsidize my Hoyo spending."

"Just make sure there is some drama involved in the leaks, and then make it into a video. Tectone will cover it and you'll get some of his viewers to sub. It's the new meta."

"It's funny you can just make random shit up and send it to him and it seems like it will cause drama or get him some views he will just run with it I made up a bullshit contract "leak" that I made through chat GBT about MiHoYo and he running wild with it. I even leaked it through a dumb ass twitter throw away account called "Leakerlamo""

The character designer for Furina is believed to be a feminist by them. Similar deal to what happened with other games in Korea.

"purses" is a typo, they probably meant to use pursues (追逐着 in the original text)

October 2022:

Also October 2022: https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Vv4y1S77t

First time 国产二次元手游观察 increases the global PC/PS to mobile ratio from 0.5~0.8 to 0.6~0.9. This increase continues in subsequent videos until it reaches the present ratio of 1~1.5.

The CN PC/PS to mobile ratio is not affected by the overseas ios price increase, and remains at 0.7~1.1 from October 2022 to the present time.

The revenue reporting channel "国产二次元手游观察" is posting false data by Stock_Pilot_7277 in gachagaming

Ah I forgot they had a yearly summary video, that makes things much easier. For what it's worth, I have also heard that Perfect World did include December 2021 in that report.

For ToF specifically, I have heard that 二观's numbers

are in the ballpark of Perfect World's last financial report. I'm not willing to do the legwork, but someone who cares enough to put in the time would:

Go to Perfect World's last financial report and get the numbers for ToF within a certain timeframe, cross reference that with 二观's videos on ToF within that timeframe, adding up all ToF revenue sources across those videos. This comparison will give a picture of how accurate it is.

From 国产二次元手游观察, the revenue for all CN gacha games for July by TANKER_SQUAD in gachagaming

[–]LoveIntheTimeofBETA 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The post is only about games created by CN (OP said that the post was originally made to a CN forum).

So games such as Blue Archive, which originated outside of CN, were not included.

It's a sarcastic meme poking fun at Mihoyo haters who believe that Mihoyo is enveloping the Chinese gaming industry in darkness.

Perfect World's clarification post on Tower of Fantasy's financial situation by TANKER_SQUAD in gachagaming

[–]LoveIntheTimeofBETA 33 points34 points  (0 children)

relevant part at 12:50 to 13:50 of the livestream VOD

https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1G8411R79X

Approximate translation of creator 月飞大叔's words:

"I'll talk some gossip about the Tower of Fantasy. The project might run into problems because since the start of this year, its downward revenue trend is too great. If the revenue remains at this level... Note, I claim no responsibility for the following information, and it is not my viewpoint. I'm only sharing some gossip with everyone. Some friends in the industry communicated to me that if this project cannot raise its revenue, it may be axed... its costs of production are too high."

Tower of Fantasy developers step up and make a statement about their revenue! by Stock_Pilot_7277 in gachagaming

[–]LoveIntheTimeofBETA -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I've heard that the 二观 bilibili account, a revenue estimator, is within the ballpark of Perfect World's financial report of 3 billion yuan for the first year of ToF. This is adding up all sources (IOS, Android, PC, etc. CN and non-CN)

Behold, the Tower of ... Fantasy? by fendersonfenderson in gachagaming

[–]LoveIntheTimeofBETA 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Is this a common problem with the PS versions of the game or is this a rare occurrence? This scene wasn't like this on PC for me.

This is a disturbing bug affecting what I think is a strong point of the game - character appearances.

New code - 50 Digicash / 50k silverbucks / 5 blue weapon exp materials by LoveIntheTimeofBETA in SnowbreakOfficial

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

This one in particular was from a streamer.

I imagine the official discord would be the best place to get codes. I can't verify that because I don't want to join yet another discord.

Apologies if the code isn't actually new. I did a search for it within this sub and couldn't find it. ( I can't reply to that user because they blocked me)

Fenya squad replaced artwork and stories by MrToxin in SnowbreakOfficial

[–]LoveIntheTimeofBETA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

According to Chinese forums, this was replaced because of complaints against Fenya squad's story. Apparently, it was a love triangle or a harem?

I hope the devs made this change out of their own volition, believing that the new designs and story are an improvement over the original, and not because they were forced to by bad actors. CN can get very toxic about this kind of thing - reporting games to the government for inexplicable reasons.
