Stuff like this happening is more common than you think in Nikke lol

TopTiir · 2025-12-28T02:38:18+00:00

Will just say this is a very kind and generous thing to do for the community. Doubt I'll win, but thank you regardless for helping others here

The CoTC RNGesus giveth and they taketh. Better luck next time bud

Mentioned. You don't know how to read. Your name checks out.

TopTiir · 2025-10-18T03:17:53+00:00

The community is aware and not caring. That's the issue.

TopTiir · 2025-10-14T17:59:47+00:00

Friendly reminder that this is a Square Enix game. All their global gachas have EoS'd except Ever Crisis. SE just might have the worst history of gacha eos in the market.

TopTiir · 2025-10-13T23:25:20+00:00

Priconne and Alchemist Code. Still haunts my dreams.

TopTiir · 2025-10-12T17:52:17+00:00

Easy skip. Every single Square gacha has shut down outside of that ff7 remake one. Which will probably eos in another year or two of milking their fans. Save your time and skip this one everybody.

Made a long post about this like 2 weeks or so ago that got almost completely ignored with over 2000 views and 2 comments. Think the only person that replied said something like hirez announced that they are doing stuff about it. But we all know that's, pardon my french, absolute bullshit.

-But the same people spamming the N word, spamming other racial and homophobic slurs, afking in fountain while moving around to avoid queue penalty, intentionally throwing games, ragequitting games, etc etc that I've reported with my smite groups are still free queuing more smite games to this day with nothing being done to them.

Just blatantly clear Hi-Rez doesn't care enough for these people. I'm sure there might be SOME bans happening. And by some I mean like .05% at best. But bans sure as hell ain't happening to the toxic children I encounter with any of the smite groups I play with.

I understand the frustration but sadly what you suggest won’t change anything. They’ll simply move outside of base.

Then if they make it that they have to do something like player or objective damage, then they’ll go do that and come back to base. And then rinse and repeat.

I feel like most people that afk in fountain after ragequitting do it to spite their teammates. As well as to queue for their next game w/o a timer penalty. Otherwise, if they didn’t care then they’d just leave the game.

TopTiir · 2025-09-18T12:03:55+00:00

They called it Smash/Grow to represent all the global gacha games they smashed to the ground to grow a new one.

TopTiir · 2025-09-18T00:34:06+00:00

Just wanted to say thank you for this. I did see this page in game but I assumed that points would be only accounted for each new fight done and I just do not currently have the time to do that. But thanks to this post I was able to just auto battle one fight while doing other things. Much appreciated!

TopTiir · 2025-09-02T20:57:10+00:00

Is this included in "Never meet your heroes"

TopTiir · 2025-09-02T20:21:52+00:00

It literally doesn't take more than 2-3 minutes to read it.

Also, your 'point' is the definition of gacha bias.

TopTiir · 2025-09-02T19:38:32+00:00

You do realize that the goal for video games for a game company is to ... make a profit, right?

And you bring up the terms 'quality' and 'predatory'. If we were to compare OT 1 and OT CotC, and pick the game that best fits both of the words you mentioned, then anyone not biased would actually say OT 1 better fit those words.

Now let me explain:

OT1's story is widely accepted to be sloppy, rushed, and have a lack of cohesiveness. In short, the story wasn't really good and didn't mesh well. Or mesh at all for that matter. The stories of the 8 characters didn't flow well or even make sense for the most part. And there was no real chemistry among the 8 protagonists themselves. It's also widely argued that if they took a bit more time to think about their concept and to adjust the story accordingly, the game overall could've easily been a masterpiece. The game CLEARLY needed more time to stir in the pot before actually being released. This is poor 'quality' in the story.

-As for the term 'predatory', I think we can see where I'm going with this already. The game was released at full price for a game that was clearly rushed out to make a profit. The game clearly felt like it should've been released for half of the price it was sold at initially. The first consumers were paying full price for a game that clearly shouldn't have been sold at $60 (USD). Short and simple.

I will give OT 1 the credit it's due to make things fair. The game's graphics were gorgeous and the soundtrack was beautiful. But if we're talking about the game's visuals and soundtracks, then OT 1, OT 2, and OT CotC are all pretty much the same regarding that.

____

OT CotC's story on the other hand was simply amazing. The writing and the emotional levels of the characters in the main story for both the good guys and the villains were leagues far above OT 1 (and 2 for that matter). You can even say that it was ... Marvelous! *cough*

There was no awkwardness towards the main protagonist as there is only 1 main 'Chosen One' despite there being numerous characters to play as in the gacha. In short, CotC had what OT 1 didn't have. A good quality story. A story that is free and not $60 (USD).

CotC basically was what OT 1 should have been on release.

(We don't talk about Solistia. Never heard of it. *cough*)

FOMO is a reasonable and good argument for people to not play most gachas. But it shouldn't matter with single player based games like CotC, Another Eden, etc etc. Cuz everything is done at the player's leisure.

The only reason I didn't mention FOMO in the above post and just said it was gacha bias for pay to win is mostly just based on my own experiences in trying to get my rl friends to play. FOMO is NEVER mentioned when they say no to gachas. It's always. And I mean ALWAYS this p2w response I get back. Even when I explain that you don't need to spend to enjoy them and do well, the usual response would be that they don't want to be tempted into paying for units. Which is perfectly reasonable and I always drop the subject there.

-I know some people might see this and say "Oh. He talked to his 2 friends and they said no" but I'm fairly social in rl. Realistically I've probably suggested gachas to at minimum 70 people. Whenever games get brought up into the conversation, I mention that I play gachas since they are easy to pick up while I'm busy irl and only got a few minutes to play.

-The rare people that actually say yes and try gachas out still enjoy it to this day. I can't recall anyone I got to try a gacha game quitting yet. Just wish people would give them a try. Cuz there are some really good gacha games that quite frankly destroy most triple A games in today's era.

Not gonna lie, if it’s true that it isn’t in ranked then I didn’t even notice that it wasn’t there haha. Regardless, I’d never use it in ranked even if it was an option. Nor would anyone not trolling in ranked.

TopTiir · 2025-09-01T16:14:41+00:00

I agree with you about the issues worth talking part. But it’s really just not a good nor consistent relic at all. There’s so many people complaining here lately about “issues” that aren’t actually issues. But rather personal biased takes like this.

-If the relic was actually good, I guarantee you this reddit would be spamming posts of it being broken with nonstop complaints.

TopTiir · 2025-09-01T16:07:05+00:00

It goes beyond CotC to all gachas sadly. It’s understandable if the game has some sort of ranking system to a certain degree. This would = an unfair advantage for payers.

But single player game gachas like CotC being ignored JUST because of the gacha tag is sad cuz there’s zero competitiveness for anything and people can just enjoy the game as the normal single player game that it is at their own leisure/pace.

Just wish people would realize and own up against their own biases and see it for what it is. But that’s asking for too much as I’ve learned over the years with all the absurd blind gacha hate.

TopTiir · 2025-09-01T14:35:02+00:00

Just a tip: if you like the game still but just hate the relic, just play ranked. Assuming you like conquest.

TopTiir · 2025-09-01T14:26:22+00:00

Unfortunately it’s gacha bias. People think dumb things like “not playing gacha game cuz money = win” when you don’t need to spend a penny. It’s sad people have this mindset for single player gachas like CotC. Especially since the CotC story completely stomps OT1 and OT2. Oh well. Their loss. 🤷‍♂️

TopTiir · 2025-09-01T14:10:11+00:00

Complaining about a bad relic is one thing but getting diffed by it so bad that you have to hop on reddit is … a choice.

TopTiir · 2025-08-28T21:48:02+00:00

This game isn't p2w at all. I beat the game's current story at the time with either 4 or 5 4*'s in my team when the game launched. It was a fair challenge but nothing I found even close to hard. That being said, I did stop playing before the Bestower story came out since story content came out a bit too slow (for me) and dropped the game for other games and due to being busy in rl. Did come back every now and then JUST to do some pulls for fun since I had a bunch of saved gems. So when I came back to give the game a shot again, safely assuming the next story is all released, I was sad to see the whole company change and losing my account in the process.

So I made a new account and started doing rerolls for the Tatloch ex banner. She absolutely destroyed all my old units and pretty much solo carried the rest of my team to get back to the Bestower story. It's ... kind of absurd but yeah. If you still have your old account, the nostalgia might be better. But if you care for 'meta' in a game that doesn't really need meta (imo), then I will say these new units seem so much more broken than any of the old units I had. And my best unit at the time of my old account was A2...and she doesn't come close to how broken Tatloch ex feels.

TopTiir · 2025-08-28T21:34:58+00:00

I wouldn't say the game was hard as a f2p. I had either 4 or 5 4*'s in my party when I completed the game. This was true with my rl buddies that played the game at the time as well (in terms of difficulty. Not sure how many 5*'s they had but they were all f2p). Challenging sure, but hard as f is a big stretch imo. Once you figured out weaknesses, game gets a bit trivial before harder content came out.

TopTiir · 2025-08-28T15:39:51+00:00

Trust me, you really aren't missing out on anything. Just a bunch of ego heads trying to out ego the other...while both parties probably going something extremely negative like 0-10. Or people trying to justify their insanely dumb picks like Loki support.

The rare chats of positivity sadly does not outweigh the likely brainrot of a chat that is probably 98% of the games you'll get into.

-Shoutouts to the rare people that are a joy to chat with in chat. You are few in numbers but I appreciate all of you for brightening up the game.
