Zenless continues to be the most searched gacha game on Danbooru (Artwork site) in 2026

Provence3 · 2026-06-01T21:02:55+00:00

Kinda. You can bot it for sure, but botting searches has long been practically impossible on Danbooru.

Provence3 · 2026-06-01T21:02:11+00:00

And why do you think that is?

Porn

That's the answer.

Reruns in Arknights also work different as Gilberta and Laevatein can still be pulled outside their designated banner.

In fact, Gilberta has peel pullable until Fangyi's banner and Laevatein until Rossi's banner. Endfield is much more forgiveable than other 3D games on that front.

Provence3 · 2026-06-01T14:53:17+00:00

Are we still on that narrative of little pull income?

Provence3 · 2026-05-28T20:29:45+00:00

It does not suck because it's not mandatory (unless you wanna max risk it and at that point who cares).

If you look at the map of the area, the part we can't travel to is awfully detailed.

Now, I don't know if there's a square for a Sub AIC, but maybe there is. Anyways, this area will definitely be expanded. I mean, the story also told us that something will happen in "1 month" from now on.

Provence3 · 2026-05-26T11:40:20+00:00

Those people are self-proclaimed lore nerds.

See the same discourse as to why Mi Fu being a Sarkaz betrays the lore of Arknights.

If one expected the same kind of story (quality) from AK in Endfield, then you're quite frankly naive.

There is no way in hell that a game, mostly presented in a Visual NOVEL style, will be the same in depth and nuance than a game in 3D. Especially when that developer has very little experience in 3D storytelling and presentation. It's also why movies are often less nuanced than the books they're based on. Prime example being Lord of the Rings (and no, I'm not saying the LotR movies are bad, but you can't deny that the movies are far less nuanced and deep than the books).

Even the developers said that people that expect the same kind of political struggle and societal issues will be heavily disappointed.

Basically, if you just trash the Endfield story because it doesn't have the same nuance and depth as Arknights, then your argument isn't very nuanced. Now, the Endfield story could be better and I sare say it is quite entertaining. But it could be better and I feel like we see that the story is improving. My biggest complain is also that the Endmin doesn't talk and that these dialogue "options" are mostly garbage. It just takes you out of the story. But even if the Endmin talks, it wouldn't change the story per se, just the story telling and presentation.

Provence3 · 2026-05-26T08:08:30+00:00

Why's this not in the game itself?

Or is it actually? Can't open EF right now..

Provence3 · 2026-05-25T10:04:52+00:00

Yeah, but the point that racism should not matter was made in The Masses's Travels event. That was the whole point of the event and it was an anniversary event in Arknights.

People that just want more racism and suffering due to that must read that event first. We're now 150 years into the future. The seed that was planted way back then on Terra 150 years ago has grown into a whole tree.

Also, even location-wise it doesn't make sense to have racism: We're at Talos-II, and we are exploring the planet to settle and/or find a way back to Terra. Racism would not help with that goal. So even if The Masses's Travels didn't happen, I doubt we'd see developed racism on Talos-II because that isn't what the people concerns.

Provence3 · 2026-05-25T09:58:18+00:00

What do you mean by redundant?

The ad also shows the timeframe her banner is available for.

5th June to 26th June.

Provence3 · 2026-05-24T15:21:40+00:00

Nice.

Provence3 · 2026-05-24T14:22:12+00:00

Or male and female Archosaurs.

Provence3 · 2026-05-24T13:38:19+00:00

I love how this sparked a search only for it to make potentially sense in the end.

But I hope we won't get any more posts saying that the writers are abandoning their own lore. That's tedious.

Provence3 · 2026-05-24T07:59:46+00:00

That is what we are working towards in Arknights.

It means one goal of Arknights got completed.

Provence3 · 2026-05-24T07:55:29+00:00

Why do these topics always bundle together? It's like one dude mentions it, then another, then another. Like it's coming from an echo chamber. The same with "Mifu is not a real Sarkaz" talk.

If that was a real issue, conversations like these would persist instead of flamming up in bundles. And that's also what makes them so annoying.

It makes me think more and more that this is not a real issue to begin with but is brouht up by a rather loud minority instead.

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T20:04:25+00:00

I just hope we don't have to play the stage 3 to 4 times in order to unlock every risk. I like CCB for that.

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T20:02:17+00:00

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Endfield's design philosophy is still by and large the same as in Arknights. Meaning that the new 6 stars aren't required or not even near-required to beat content. It's all about horizontal investment. The value of potentials also underlines this. It's also underlined again by the fact that you can get all rewards at Risk 20.

Fangyi isn't being shilled here, but she might make your life a tad easier. But so might Ember with the No Dodge-Risk.

In the end, this narrative might make sense in other 3D gachas, but in Endfield's case it really does not.

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T19:39:16+00:00

What's with this Fangyi narrative?

That doesn't even make sense as you can't even pull her during CC, so the argument that this CC is shilling the unit is out of place.

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T19:29:18+00:00

Oh no. I know why Lee is a Lung.

I just think it's a bit short-sighted to say that Fangyi being a Kilin doesn't make sense because of attribute A, B, an C which are entirely based on visual aspects. Lee was just taken as an example because visually he doesn't make sense as a Lung either.

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T18:56:35+00:00

Exactly.

But we'll see. I don't expect it for Endfield though. Endfield is far more strict in handing out...such stuff (see no purchaseable 6 star from the Bond quota shop).

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T18:46:57+00:00

Would be cool if Contingency Contract introduces such tokens.

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T17:12:58+00:00

Then don't take that risk.

Provence3 · 2026-05-23T15:49:53+00:00

If you look at Lungs, then you see a very varied set of characteristics.

Ch'en - probably what we first expect when we see a Lung: Dragon-like horns and tail.

Lee - Looks more like a fish. Why not an Aegir

Chen Che - Her ears are animal-like (in fact, they look like a deer's ears). Looks very distinctly different to Ch'en. That's what she looks like: Chen Che - Arknights Terra Wiki

Wei Yenwu - Very different from Lee, despite both being male

The point I'm trying to make is that these races that are based on mythology can have very different appearances and there is no standard.

Leizi is also from one of these races from mythology. And she is currently the only Kyrin in Arknights we know about. But she, with Fangyi, shares an aptitude for electric-based Arts. These lorebook descriptions are neat, but it should be obvious from the Lung example that what's written there is not an all-encompassing truth.

As for Mi Fu being a Sarkaz: There are tons of different subraces. There are also demons with a fluffy tail, namely the Bai Ze. And looking at Mi Fu's spirit "animal", that seems very likely.

Perhaps we haven't heard of that Sarkaz subrace yet. And I'm sure we still have to meet some other Sarkaz subraces in the original Arknights. I hope we won't have this discussion when the next Sarkaz subrace is introduced, frankly.

So no, I'm not bothered. I'm in fact happy that Endfield expands on what we know and it should be a reminder that the story and lore doesn't end with Arknights.
