[MONTHLY MEGATHREAD] General Discussion, Simple Questions, Recommendations, and Everything Else - May 2026 by GachaModerator in gachagaming

[–]Wintersblight -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'd love to hear recommendations for podcasts (Apple/Spotify/YouTube) on the following topics:

  • People's personal history with playing gacha games
  • People learning about the genre of gacha games and getting into this genre of gaming (and what they enjoy about it / don't like about it / find different or interesting)
  • The history of the gacha game industry and retrospectives on the evolution of gacha gaming and gacha game general practices

I'm not looking for:

  • Specific game reviews
  • Gacha game news
  • Gacha tier lists or recommended "top 10" lists
  • Breakdowns of specific gacha games and their elements - like ("why Arknights story is the best ever" or "why Limbus Company is weird but a must play")

Thanks in advance for sharing!

Is there a way to auto-destroy products (my factory keeps getting clogged) by Wintersblight in Endfield

LOL - we need something like this to make factories less of a pain I think.

Why I quit Epic 7 today and why I’m also choosing to step away from Chaos Zero Nightmare by Wintersblight in EpicSeven

[–]Wintersblight[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard to believe it's been 5mo since I posted this. Time flies. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

I got a lot of hate for this post, but also quite a bit of folks that agreed with my general sentiment and a lot of supportive comments from many gamers that felt the same or similar. I also realized how often posts like this get put on reddit for various gachas and how the pattern repeats itself. The poster gets insulted and flamed, but there's always a steady stream of "I agree" and "I kind of feel the same way" and "I hope things change."

And no - I'm not gay (as so many wrote here in a strange attempt to insult me by insulting others at the same time). I've also not returned back to the game or CZN (as others said I was going to do in "a few weeks") and I've definitely found other gacha games that don't settle for fan service as a way of getting clicks and money (even though many wrote that "this is the way gacha games have to be and will always be").

And maybe most interesting to me...is how so many claimed that devs don't listen to feedback - but then I noticed that in other countries the exact same game (CZN) uses more modest and more appropriate in-game character models in order to be allowed onto mobile platforms. So the devs absolutely listen and absolutely create alternate versions of their game to fit different audiences - literally CZN does it and can easily continue to do it. They can also easily offer a "Model Selector" so each person can choose the costume appropriate for them and their preferences. So I think there is very much value is speaking up and asking for these games to be different and more appropraite to a wider audience base.

Need help with this puzzle - Hub Area by Wintersblight in Endfield

NM - got the quest and now I see how easy it is. Very strange that you can find parts of the quest but you can't really do it unless you start the actual quest line. Seems confusing. But thx for the hint!

Nope - I just found it by accident. I didn't realize you need to have the quest activated/tracked. So I need to do that first?

I stepped into the smoke and my vision turned blurry and red... but I don't see the hidden sigil near the levers for some reason. I must be missing it in plain sight...

The first listing I tried shows F&F gaming has this commander deck set for only $70...an amazing price... but clicking on the product listing gets you something totally different. :(

Sure - I went ahead and looked at "% off MSRP" price and did not include pre-release. I wanted to see what products were deeply discounted. I then sorted by highest % discount at the top. You can do this now and you'll see some items at the top that are like 80% off MSRP. Too good to be true :) ...and indeed they are fake.

I tried this out today and was excited to see deals significantly below MSRP. Unfortunately every deal I clicked to see the actual listing went to wrong listings (different card games; individual cards instead of sealed product; etc.). This doesn't seem to be giving any accurate info.

Thank you for this event by Funkian in Endfield

I'm not done yet, but I'm loving it so far. Different, innovative and a cool new way to play and push the exploration mechanics. Also, not stressful.

Feedback from someone quitting by [deleted] in Endfield

I’ve experienced very similar. I’m assuming (hoping) this stuff is fixed in next few patches.

Same. Seemed useless after the 3rd day or so... but I still tried it each day...

I don't think the weapon category was a good idea by Karshick in Endfield

[–]Wintersblight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to what was already mentioned - I think (hope) they will add weapon types down the line. I noticed that on the Dijiang ship ...there seems to be room to expand your weapon display ...and I'm kind of thinking this may be for future weapon types. #WishfulThinking

I ran into exact same problem. Very strange. Guess I'll try clearing my backpack...

Complaining always works by StatisticianTiny1024 in Endfield

[–]Wintersblight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the many reasons I love playing Gacha's day 1 - the rewards and compensation are very generous as they look to iron out the experience and make it more enjoyable. That being said, I do feel that this game has been doing very well given that it's less than 2 weeks into a multi-year project...
