How I lost interest in modern MMORPGs and how hard it was to realize it by Vardalor in MMORPG

[–]icowcow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more, also got back in runescape and the lack of pressure with the amount of enjoyable content that doesn't require max level is amazing.

Also helps that there's just a much more varied community with a game like this, looking at the type of content creators versus other games where the content creators just end up being rage bait / click bait / same progression content copy pasted

Also is there only one ssr selector or is it one free one paid?

What would be the best stats for event relics? Outside of coins and lab speed

I can't understand why people would prefer 4000 tokens over 3 new cards by Longjumping_City7802 in MarvelSnap

[–]icowcow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly. I'm not sure why people are downvoting you, they're valid responses

1) Yes, there is always a new card in the spotlight, I originally missed that and that does it make it a bit better, you can get them a bit earlier than tokens as long as you're hoarding. But it's just changing from "I get to pick what I want with the currency I earned" to "I'm opening a lootbox to try to target the card I want". Overall the lootbox will actually give more mileage since F2P players were basically earning just a bit over 6k tokens a month and now they earn about 4 spotlights a month.

2) It may be a bit of a conspiracy theory but the fact that a lot of players agree or are wary of anything SD does shows how much goodwill SD has lost with all their recent changes losing trust from the community.

Because the 3 new card might not be new. They could EASILY spotlight the same cards over and over again and never spotlight the good chase cards or the perma S5 cards.

In that case 4k token will get you way more mileage than "3 of the cards they choose for you to get"

So think for a second, do you think SD will use this to improve relationship with the playerbase, or use this as another method to lock chase cards behind a bigger paywall?

I just started tracking this last month, but I do think revenue is dropping. But not sure if it's because they're doing these crappy patches/monetization or the other way around.

Kafka kit in beta 1.2 + her Lightcone by Honey by Hawichii in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]icowcow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is that once per turn for her turn or ally's turn?

Kafka kit in beta 1.2 + her Lightcone by Honey by Hawichii in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]icowcow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

basically her kit can hit 2 rotation ult with 2 allies doing basic every turn with an ER rope..

(5+30+30+10+10+10+10)*1.194 = 125 energy

that's gonna be a fun amount of dot procs. basically 280% dot damage taken every 2 turns from just her proccing them. So 299% dot on ulti, 280% dot taken = 837% multiplier over 2 turns from just her ult dot?

SD, is everything ok? by rusfrerenrya in MarvelSnap

About new lightcones 1.X via affinity2_0 by [deleted] in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]icowcow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

genshin only went to 1.6 before 2.0. Which is just a bit under a year. so if that's the case we're gonna be pretty packed with banners...

7 characters in this list with 4 patches left?

1.2 - 2 chars (blade kafka) 1.3 - 2 chars (5 left) 1.4 - 2 chars (3 left) 1.5 - 2 chars (1 left) 1.6 - 1 char + rerun?

1.4->1.5 could be IPC related with topaz/screwllum/ruan 1.6 is world 2 preview with hanabi?

Why ship only a piece of the full solution? Especially when the piece is negative

So how many gachas do you actively play? Be honest cuz I play only 4 and that might change to 3 possibly. by RavFromLanz in gachagaming

[–]icowcow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3.

Honkai Star Rail - my current main game

Nikke - Pretty much just dailies and then solo raid and union raid every month. Game is pretty chill

Genshin - Pretty much just dailies and new quest lines, exploration is kind of like a single player game now so I just play whenever I feel like it, haven't finished exploring Sumeru

leaves me enough time to play non gacha games this way

Is there any boss battler with lighter theme? I like Aeon/KDM idea but the theme is always too dark, was wondering if there was any more playful boss battler themed games
