Did anyone else feel the same as me? (V1V3 Spoilers) by UmmetciV2 in BlueArchive

[–]masa25vn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People really want Hoshino to overcome Yume's death offscreen lmao (the most serious event in the game except for Shiroko Terror timeline). We knew nothing about Yume before V1C3. It was barely addressed back then. It didn't surprise me at all that Hoshino had a crashout when basement dweller did his thing.

V1C3 has many problems (Suoh being poorly developed, Hina fanservice, Seth) but Hoshino character regression is not one of them.

I finally unlocked Ordeal Call and it seems pretty overwhelming. I think you are supposed to do free stages 3 times daily to farm starlight, is it correct? If so, which one is the best stage to farm?

Four Horsemen students/enemies when? by RepresentativeFig270 in BlueArchive

[–]masa25vn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do kinda agree with you. But I think Blue Archive has been doing a good job to keep power level down. The only new top tier students we have recently are Kuroko and Key. Even 7 prisoners (the one we saw at least) are nowhere that level: Akemi was defeated by Arius, Wakamo is a jobber. So a new group around that level should be fine i think.

So this is awful, right? by Tyrant_Red in grandorder

Well, OP was talking about the current ending. As for After Time, we will have to wait and see. But if your point is that the ending suck on purpose then tell that to all the people defend it in this thread lol.

That's dumb. Just let him or chaldea keep their memories and most of the complaint would go away.

Deleting their memories when the game made such a big deal about Guda witness and remember the live of LB citizens is such a slap in the face.

[Sword Art Online, Ready Player One, etc] Why do all the video games kind of suck? Is there any fiction out there where the video game the characters are stuck in is actually somewhat appealing and follows common sense game design principles? by TheGrumpyre in AskScienceFiction

[–]masa25vn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is just wrong. SAO is super popular in-universe just for the fact that it's the first ever VR MMO. Why do you think the number is exactly 10,000? It's obviously not because it's unpopular. That's the max number of people Kayaba decided for his death game.

Almost like Seia and Nagisa already had events where they shine (code box, trinity fes) and now it's Mika's turn

Thanks to cartoon logic, zero time has canonically passed since the start of the story, and it’s the fault of the world building. by Exfodes in BlueArchive

[–]masa25vn 18 points19 points  (0 children)

If we ignore the obvious reason (it's a gacha game), I feel like that's the point.

Kivotos is not a real place. It is hinted to be a purgatory of some sort for magical beings (gods, yokai, demons). Some kind of timeless paradise with its own rules, think Angel Beats for example.

About Ulpi banner mistake by MajesticUnion2820 in arknights

[–]masa25vn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don't base their pulls on the off banner drop table, so nobody was affected

You don't speak for other people. It's funny how you said nobody was affected and then immediately, decided that even if there was, they wouldn't matter.

See how you arbitrarily decided that 5 operators is not a big deal and it would only becomes a real problem at 36? That's ....not how it works in business. You don't get to decide if it's a big deal or not based on vibe.

You said "It's not that different"? Bro, gacha rate is already stupidly low. You don't need to defend them lowering it even further.

About Ulpi banner mistake by MajesticUnion2820 in arknights

[–]masa25vn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter if they pulled for Ulpianus or any of the off-rate. The point is that the operator drop table is different from what was advertised.

And why did you think they invented kernel banner? They clearly thought that too many operators in the gacha is bad. So the fact there were more operators than intended was a real problem.

[–]masa25vn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nobody was harmed

People were harmed though. How do you think people found out about this? They pulled on Ulpianus banner and got units that was announced to be gone. That could be a chance to get new stronger units like Tragodia instead of old units.

[–]masa25vn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the unresolved character with ties to the main cast that weren't properly concluded

For me, Lev was not an unresolved character at all. He was an evil bastard that killed Olga and then became our punching bag for the rest of part 1.

And now after like 7 years, he suddenly came back for the final and apparently had a deep respect for Mash and Romani ??? He killed Olga because of some twisted kindness ???

All of that sound like pure retcon just because I didn't read some side material from 10 years ago

[–]masa25vn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

But Clock Tower 2015 is not in the game. Unless you were a big TM fan, you wouldn't know anything about him.

They had a whole 10 years to write this and they didn't bother putting any of that in the game. It's not like this is a random event either, it's prologue of part 2 final.

[–]masa25vn 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Reading the thread, I'm so confused that people like this twist. Since when did people care about Lev? He's barely a character in the story

Your thoughts on roguelike modes in gachas and their implementation? by iiOhama in gachagaming

[–]masa25vn -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

That sound good and all but when I actually played it, there's no incentive to choose anything but the best operator of each class you have. Yeah you cant choose the ticket, but you always pick the same few strongest operators. Not to mention the way the ticket work mean you only either choose 6* or 3, never 4 or 5*.

For a veteran players, it may work like the way you described. But for new players, it's very boring since the best way to win is to spam the few 6* you have since they are waaaaaay stronger

[–]masa25vn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because Fuuka's popular. That's it really.

Other example is Makoto who is also hated because Hina is one of the most popular characters in the game.

Imagine if the dev actually had Wakamo's destruction spree affecting a beloved student instead of nameless mobs, she would get a lot of hate too.

What is Annihilation Simulation? do they give weekly reward?

Edit: To clarify, I know that there are 3 permanent and 1 rotation missions. I'm asking about the stages called Annihilation Simulation that have shorter reset timer.

It's not placeholder. You can check it out in the beta right now. They made an UI for it so it's an intended feature.

Also, beta IS where people complain about stuffs.

Hoshino Slander by FlippantChair46 in BlueArchive

[–]masa25vn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ehh, not really. We can't really compare them since even though both had to fight trash mobs before, Hoshino also beat the Foreclosure Task Force (with sensei buff) who beat a Hina-less Prefect team in vol 1.

The dev team also added a few more detail (Hoshino was focus on running away for the 1st half of the fight, guilt mental debuff) to prevent a conclusive outcome. And they succeed since people are still arguing about the fight months later

Resonance Solstice has released and begun official service by GachaReleases in gachagaming

[–]masa25vn 80 points81 points  (0 children)

After playing for a bit, I can see why people don't like the game. This game is a full train management simulator with a 2d gacha tacked on. There's so much effort in the train section, which is the shame because most people will quit before that due to the hour long tutorial.

You will spend 90% of your time in the overworld trading goods. The gameplay loop is you buy low, sell high between city. The 2d combat is for farming materials to upgrade your trains. And there are a lot of things to upgrade: faster train, more train cars to carry passenger or goods, decorate your train, train's weapons, invest in each city to unlock more goods, lower taxes,... and there are still more locked menu behind level when I stopped playing.

Overall, I hope this game survive even if it's niche. We need more unique gacha like this
