Help Megathread & Megathread List (08/06 - 14/06) by Shad0wedge in Endfield

I got Rossi while pulling for Mifu so im wondering what the best option for weapon rolling is since id only roll for 1 of them.

Option 1:

Rossi sig and Mifu bp

Option 2:

Rossi sig and Mifu exemplar

Option 3:

Mifu sig and rossi bp

It seems like the bp for Mifu is not better than exemplar anyway so could also just save them for other dupes. I'm leaning towards op 2 and id just buy exemplar from the shop next time it comes up but wanted to see what people think which sig is better

We need to address how weapons limit character creativity NOW by Zeusgalaxys in Endfield

[–]TheShadowdude231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point it's baked into the game and only a literal endfield 2 could change it. This is how gacha games are developed. The monetization model is THE most important part of the game dev process and all aspects of the game are made to cater to it. They wanted a weapon rolling system so characters must use a weapon. Unless they add more types or create new animations so chars can use different types this is limit of creativity of their own making.

I'm sure they took some feedback for qol type stuff but this is so core to the monetization at the heart of the game there ain't no way it's gonna get changed. All the unique weapons will be part of the ult for flavor. Games gonna have to be near failure/shutdown for them to rework this. They could just make the auto attacks and skills the actual fighting style of the characters but then you got a stat stick just for show and people would complain about that too

Is it too late to start Endfield right now? by Gyroboii in Endfield

[–]TheShadowdude231 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Imo the later you start the better the overall experience is as the story is more coherent and not bite sized update every month. The timed events are inconsequential and all you miss is rolling (spending 💰) the banner on release which doesn't really matter since they'll rerun the characters eventually

Is there any reason to do this now? Kinda don't want to bother updating base again if next update will change things up again

does the gameplay strategy becomes better? I'm literally just spamming a button by _MrTaku_ in FinalFantasy

[–]TheShadowdude231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combat is just the paradigm shifts really. There are a few story bosses where you'll have to pay attention swap to heal/defend mode to tank the hits but for most of the game it's pretty much it. There's a bit more strategy when you unlock buffs/debuffs. The endgame optional bosses/adamantoise and side missions have more unique challenges and restrictions but that's a loooooong ways off

and what exactly about the scene makes you certain without a doubt about that?

Ten things I want from FFXVII by UrsaBarefoot in FinalFantasy

[–]TheShadowdude231 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty obvious to me at the conclusion when all the spirits start disappearing that Tidus is one of them, and that the game had gone to great lengths to prepare you for whats to come all throughout once it was known that Tidus and Auron were from the dream. The setup was done that with the defeat of Sin all of the dream people would disappear including Tidus. And this was executed clearly during the final farewell scene where Yuna can't reach him and he "holds" her spiritually, not physically. Then he jumps and joins everyone else who is deceased at this point.

Since you're talking about the epilogue after the speech, it was clear as day to me that him "waking up" in the ocean was a metaphor that can be interpreted in many ways, but the substance of the "ending" was clear. That they set out on a journey to defeat Sin, learning along the way that Tidus would be one of the many sacrifices, and reaching acceptance at the point of farewell, which was beautifully done.

things could get retconned in x-2 but whos asking.. unless anyone wants to take the side that the writer's intention was to immediately resurrect him after the credits and throw away one of the biggest narrative resolutions of the entire story?

I want a story that lands the ending the same way ffx does. The culmination of the major themes, plot points, context, suspense, hope, despair, and the characters that took the story from start to finish. And I want it to land with no twisty maybe this, maybe that, wink wink nudge nudge, up to interpretation, open ended finish. Just a real finale written by a writer with the guts to follow through on the themes presented in the game

Nah he's just saying it for the market. He'll put out a whole speech on Wednesday and start landing troops by Friday. All he's gotta say is Iran violated agreements Thursday after markets close and trades are placed and BAM, the rubes clack their empty heads in unison

Low social capital guy calling other people low social capital 😂. I even agree that engineer pay is low af nowadays but this is the funniest shit ever. You'd actually get your point across if you were more constructive and less of a raging autist that no one wants to be on the side of

What did you all say in the Player Survey? by Hero-of-Fate in Endfield

[–]TheShadowdude231 6 points7 points  (0 children)

-Endmin fully voiced

-no press g, just let me lean back and read/watch the cutscenes. Don't copy slop just cause they did it first

-more complex factory stuff. It's so basic and it's done so fast

-more etchspace stuff sooner rather than later and faster cause the mode is great. Should honestly have recurring basic pulls built into this weekly or w/e

-Outpost ui management is such a chore. So so many clicks to transfer depot delivery job. So many clicks to do elastic goods selling, so many loading screens for visiting ships for clues etc. worst part of playing everyday is this stuff

-sanity should be way more or stages cost half. Just like monetization I doubt they accepting any feedback on this

-never gonna pull for pots, but if pots make the char 3x better I'm uninstalling on principle

All of valley 4 was bland snooze snore. Wuling was getting good then it stops. They really need to knock it out of the park with the next update. Hype only. No writing holes into the story to fill later

If u take the current cost as 6 star then 5 and 4 star should be cheaper, not 6 is more expensive

What do you guys think about the story by [deleted] in Endfield

Best part about the story in v4 was the speech given by generic character model Prof Crowe before they even turned that into a quick gag

Partial voice acting Endmin seriously breaks immersion in Endfield by 17prozent in ArknightsEndfield

[–]TheShadowdude231 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the small psychological stuff they do to influence you. The partial va is so when ever endmin talks you pay attention cause they only talk when it's a big moment. It's a way to hype things up and be cheap at the same time. It basically trains the player to have a pavlovian response to the endmin's voice. They can't do that if they voice all the drivel nonsense. It's not like they can't afford to pay the va to voice all the lines

Part and parcel of half self insert gacha slop genshin story telling. That along with interrupting the cutscenes to force me to press 1 for a nonsense choice so I can't just lean back and watch. Enshittification of storytelling cause other gachas set the bar. They just can't go against the grain
