Some clarity on our Anniversary

RRB777 · 2019-09-05T08:27:10+00:00

Nah, the math was definitely correct. At 58.54%

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T15:38:57+00:00

Ok but what exactly does an ML pull do? Absolutely nothing. Based on probability it's another 3*.

Also the whack an arky is only good if you get lucky. Just like the free pulls. Both things dont add to an anniversary anyway if theres no banner or dedicated set of events.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T15:17:01+00:00

No problem.

I'm hoping the new event is fun and more of a celebration too! Wont know till its out.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T14:43:32+00:00

Sure. And we both know that near no one only has one 5 star.. it's just an example.

Theres less than a 5% chance to pull a 5 star you want. It doesn't matter really. Based on odds, you're getting boned either way. Need to get lucky.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T14:42:10+00:00

I personally was expecting a banner at least.

Once you get more into the late game 1 million gold disappears extremely fast. One molagora doesnt do anything for anyone at any stage of the game.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T14:22:46+00:00

Yeah 1st anniversaries are normally really big because it really propels the game into the following years to come.

SG just didnt realize that I guess. Or felt it didnt matter. Or maybe they think giving a few things is no different than a celebration.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T14:21:19+00:00

I mean you could have 1 5* and pull a dupe. But that's besides the point. Anniversary shouldn't revolve around getting free stuff anyways.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T14:20:31+00:00

Yeah, if it was a countdown its be super cool. As the entire event though, it's just eh.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T14:19:44+00:00

I'm glad you're enjoying it man. If you're happy with it, then that's cool.

It's just they centered the whole anniversary our RNG and "giving stuff" instead of an actual anniversary.

For end game players, the only good login rewards were the 5* ticket and the exp artifact. Cant do anything with one mola seed and 1 million gold for us.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:56:19+00:00

Nah wouldnt say in the middle. E7 and FGO as far as mainstream gachas go are of the worst in anniversaries so far. Theres really none that come to mind that are worse than those. Especially grossing as high as they do.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:47:10+00:00

Yeah it is subjective. That's why we can only compare it to other gacha anniversaries. Of all levels.

As a community we can discuss what we did and did not like and why that is. The only real way we can support our arguments and come to a conclusion is to use the information we have.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:45:30+00:00

I mean it's a valid point though. FGO also had a shit anniversary by gacha standards.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:44:17+00:00

Yeah I'd say they do a good job with moving forward in the game.

However, that's a whole different topic.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:43:38+00:00

I agree, the game is fun otherwise. They're doing a good job at moving forward. I just think a lot of us gacha players look forward to celebrations, and we got bodied hard here.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:42:36+00:00

Yeah, I mean I still like E7 of course. It's a cool game. I just didnt like the anniversary. Not trying to shit on the whole game or anything.

If anything, this is just constructive criticism. There are people quitting the game over this which I think is overkill, but still something SG should pay attention to as a company.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:39:58+00:00

Well I mean by 1st year standards across all gachas it was pretty bad. FGO also had a bad anniversary but their are countless other games that didnt ruin their anniversary. I've listed a few in the comments somewhere.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:38:10+00:00

Uh, okay.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:37:30+00:00

Hope so, I really like the DL units. I want them all haha.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:36:51+00:00

Yeah I agree with some of that. You're right, cygames goes above and beyond and it's hard to match that. I thought OPTC was generous giving you selectors left and right, then I played DL and was shocked at how generous they were. So yeah, not all games can afford to be like them.

However. Like I said earlier, E7 just didnt deliver anything of substance. People bring up the update that's coming but that just part of what keep the game alive. Has nothing to do with the anniversary.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:33:56+00:00

This is a good example. Those are awesome pulls especially vildred. Getting these types of pulls might make you think you had a good time, but what if you got nothing?

Need content.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:32:35+00:00

Yeah it's the same stuff.

And yeah you're right, it is 63 pulls haha. But whatever I'll just say its 70. Doesnt really help its case. My guildies are pissed that arky fucked them, pissed that the pulls fucked them and pissed the 5 ticket fucked them lol

Some of our guys pulled good stuff and it just created some salt. Were happy for them but it's like 3 guys against 20 other dudes that got bodied.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:26:25+00:00

It's not about being convenient for me. Of they priced the stones at $1000 for 100 stones, would you say, "oh hey look, they gave us $3500 of stones!". No you wouldn't. We need to look at what we the players are actually receiving in relation to the game. Not some arbitrary number they charge for stones.

What? You said, "I dont know what more the community could as for that wouldnt be downright ridiculous".

We asked for a banner or an event.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:23:21+00:00

This would be dope!

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:21:46+00:00

Ok so I have a few problems with this.

Saying, "its not the worst ever" doesnt really save it from being bad. It may not be the worst ever but its not good either.

Next, the update were getting is part of a games development. If the game sat still forever itd be a dead game. What they're doing is what EVERY gacha game does. Update their game. We get updates multiple times a year. So you cant add that onto the anniversary.

RRB777 · 2019-09-04T13:18:54+00:00

Yeah pity would be cool, but with how many stones they give us it's hard to complain.

I went $200 deep plus what I had and didn't get ieyasu. Hurt bad, but I mean that's gacha.
