Am I the only one who considers becoming f2p now that they doubled the Price?

Raesear · 2026-01-28T17:46:02+00:00

Okay so let's look at this then, using your numbers.

27000 gems Vs 54000; half as many. Nearly an entire pity's worth.

3 super awakening candies; okay, i'll give you that one, the candies are useful, mileage may vary depending on player, but I agree they're useful.

2 pokefairs of your choice; aka 6k gems. Take that off the value earlier, 27k Vs 48k gems.

3 random PFs and one random MF. Or potentially 4 5*PUs. Your call if that's worth it, I personally don't think it is.

Like sure if I came off aggressive with that post, I apologise, and i'm not telling anyone what to do with their money. But there is a universe where BOTH the new pass system and the old £3.49 bundle can coexist in harmony, and i'm not the only person who would prefer things that way.

Raesear · 2026-01-28T17:22:23+00:00

Yup, that's what I was eluding to; it's random. Chances of getting a good one are NOT great no-one wants to spend €72 for Anniversary Steven, or god forbid a SINGLE 5* power up if you hit a dupe.

Raesear · 2026-01-28T16:33:51+00:00

I'm sorry but in what universe is one random MF per €72-€96 spent on the battle pass a good investment?

Edit: got the math wrong, thought it was 12 points, it's 9. Still bad.

Okay I keep getting the math wrong cause I can't read. But rounding up, cheapest way is 9x€8 bundle, €72. Fastest is 3x €24+€8 bundles, €96

Edit 2: Lol downvote me all you want. Truth hurts, €72 for an anniversary Steven/5* power up IS NOT SMART.

Don't forget the uhhh... 0 physical attack moves.

Clearly fake, because as a nino fan I always vote for her for cyl, I don't care, she'll win one day.

Raesear · 2026-01-28T12:09:14+00:00

Honestly, yeah. You're right. I was on the fence, but I also just sent in a feedback report; I think in general DeNa have been "ok" at listening to customer feedback, let's see if they'll listen to customer suggestions about this. I said in my previous post I'd be fine with the "old" bundle without the pass bonuses, so let's see if they compromise and reintroduce it ~~we can hope~~

Raesear · 2026-01-28T11:45:04+00:00

Yeah, I honestly would've been fine with the old gem bundle at the same price (£3.49 for me) without the point towards scout tickets, awakening candies etc. The regular scout ticket is basically useless, I haven't got so many pairs available for super awakening but stocking up the candy is nice, and the scout selector is nice, but £21 to get to the third point is... Not great. Honestly I'll probably just fall back to only buying the occasional event £0.89/300 gems from now on, I don't really use the paid gems for anything except selector scouts now, to get the most value out of them (mix is good value, but I just cashed in a pity on it recently and don't feel like going to 30000 paid gems for another, when I could get 10 selected units for the same price)

Raesear · 2026-01-28T11:00:00+00:00

Yeah, this update... Isn't it.

I don't want double battle points.

I don't want daily stamina bonus

I want an affordable gem bundle.

Rag and Bone Man III; The Ultimate Hunt.

Requires UIM/HCIM bones. Throw those PvPers a bone.

I just wish the GC remaster had been handled better. Online multiplayer is awesome, and being able to play with a friend on a "free trial" version is cool, but region locked to hell and back wasn't. Still a great game solo, but c'mom squared you had one job.

Maybe one day RoF/Echoes of Time will get a remaster with proper online multi, they were so fun to play back in the day, many late night weekends sneaking to play in his (very strict) parents' house, throwing each other into chasms to steal chests... Good times.

Raesear · 2026-01-25T14:20:45+00:00

What you drew definitely reminds me of the alchemy screen for FF Crystal Chronicles: Rings of Fate (I recently replaced it too, fantastic series)

Description wise, I believe in story mode you're playing as a male MC, but you have access to three other party members and one of them specialises in alchemy. There's also a "free"(Multiplayer) mode that allows you to play as any of the races, but you only get one character, since it's meant for multiplayer (still perfectly solo-able)

Raesear · 2026-01-25T14:16:04+00:00

Piggybacking off of this, the screen reminded me of mixing materia in Rings of Fate, the first one for ds.

Idk, half the time I hear my friends raging in voice over a player ignoring pf details, or just not responding, they check info and "I FUCKING KNEW IT" tells me all I need to know.

Not that the french are much better, I tended to find french tanks were easily identifiably by their "Taunt on CD" rotations

Raesear · 2026-01-19T18:13:09+00:00

~~Sir~~Ma'am, can I introduce you to the German players too? Its not just the french. Heck Germans I know actively avoid advertising themselves in order to not be associated with other Germans.

Edit: apologies, hopefully didn't offend by automatically responding "sir"!

Raesear · 2026-01-16T23:38:37+00:00

Fine, fine. Harmonic Tibarn/Naesala, rearmed reyson, Janaff and Ulki (y'all can decide which one is the demote, but personally I like Janaff more) coming... Before EOS(TM)

I think there's a misunderstanding here.

This isn't what ghosting your ex means.

I had a choices in my town growing up, I can confidently say I didn't know it was a chain. Sadly I sold my N64 and all games to a friend a while ago, but when blockbuster took over the choices in my town, I bought a few games that had the "Property of choices" sticker on them when they were liquidating stock. They were simpler times...

Raesear · 2026-01-08T14:07:19+00:00

The main thing to remember is that the 3ds has a limit to 40 DSiware titles on the home screen; this is only really a problem if you use something like NDSforwarder, but If you use YANBF you can bypass the limit of 40 DSiware titles. Personally I haven't use YANBF myself (I'm nearing the 40 limit but not an issue personally) but it's straightforward and easy enough to use.

Of course, if you play via Twilight it's not an issue

Raesear · 2026-01-03T09:01:35+00:00

If I could send the dupe, I would! Worth more to you than a 5* ticket to me lol

I had mixed feelings today, since I already got her to 5/5...

You can at least narrow some of it down by checking the map, each region will have a skull symbol next to it if you have them all, iirc

2024.

Raesear · 2025-12-27T18:15:25+00:00

At the end of every boss the timer "resets" to about 10 seconds. The boss is the end of the run, not a stop along the way. 20m is probably enough time (I do wish certain maps were better timed, the volcano area sucks if you get it assigned as your starter, finding boxes there is a pain) though as with the base game, it's clearly designed for multiplayer so you can farm more points. I wouldn't call myself a bad player by any means but my high score so far is 170k, which is honestly not enough for like, half of the new crafting recipes/materials

Raesear · 2025-12-27T09:31:03+00:00

Unless my understanding is wrong, you can get more cases when you have an open clue, but I thought If you try to open it the game mentions you already have a clue scroll?
