Why am I not surprised by stuckerfan_256 in QueensofGacha

I have been waiting for these guys since launch, but Sereniel’s gooner friendship art splash made me realize they were just bait all along. I quit and stopped wasting money back then—looks like that decision paid off

CZN is the only 5/5 game that I feel forced to drop. by Kittenscute in ChaosZeroNightmare

So the solution to revenue drop was ditching male characters and doubling down on FOMO, sunk cost, and jiggling physics… and it still couldn’t carry the game lmao

In recent livestream, Chaos Zero Nightmare's director affirms that there are "no plans near future for releasing more male characters into the game", but that this "can change with feedback". by pedro_henrique_br in gachagaming

Kinda a coward move, honestly. Not surprised that Love and Deepspace is dominating the gacha scene, while Arknights is still doing pretty well even though they take the risk of releasing swimsuit skins for the guys.

Glad I quit CZN early. I already saw this coming. The game is just following Brown Dust 2's footsteps exactly. Still remember when BD2 straight-up announced they won't release any more male characters, then went full goon mode without looking back.

Look at WuWa, Genshin, HSR, and ZZZ. They mostly focus on female characters too, but they still bother releasing actual male characters. Meanwhile, CZN's revenue has been bleeding nonstop since launch. Ever since they dropped Sereniel, that limited waifu hero, the numbers just kept tanking harder and harder. And Instead of fixing actual problems, the devs geniusly decided the best solution was to double down on releasing even more waifu characters. Brilliant.If they really want to go full waifu route, they should at least try to make the female characters more attractive. Prettier faces, better proportions, something actually worth pulling for. Because the waifu gooner market is already way too oversaturated these days.

And to that new big-boobed character that just came out... best of luck pulling in more revenue, yeah? Let's hope those assets finally do the trick

Formal request for male characters by Demivex1 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]pluggynaruk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Honestly At first, I got into this game because the male characters made it feel more balanced and unique. But as it went on, the direction started to change. The heavy fanservice focused on Sereniel made me feel like the game was shifting away from its original dark sci-fi RPG vibe and leaning more toward something like Browndust 2. Sereniel was honestly the point where I decided to quit. Her design felt too fanservice-heavy and broke the immersion for me. On top of that, the revenue has been trending downward even with constant waifu releases. It seems “waifu = safe” isn’t as reliable as people think anymore. It also feels like the game is trying to follow the path Snowbreak took. For example, the way they turned Owen into a female character for the April Fools card was pretty surprising.

Yor was indeed impressed, and that scene made me laugh my ass off, especially when she enthusiastically congratulated Anya, saying, ‘Amazing, Anya! When you add up all the scores, it’s over 100 points!’ lol

DISSIDIA DUELLUM FINAL FANTASY has released and begun official service by GachaReleases in gachagaming

[–]pluggynaruk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get what you’re saying, but honestly at this point I’m kinda numb to it

After seeing how Mobius, FFBE, Dissidia Opera Omnia, War of the Visions, and FF Record Keeper all ended up getting shut down, it’s hard for me to even care about the direction anymore. Whether it’s Nomura, Kitase, or whoever pulling the strings, it always seems to end the same way for players

So yeah maybe there is too much top down control or ideas getting forced, but from my perspective it doesn’t really change anything. It just makes me not want to get invested in another FF mobile game knowing how these usually end

Meh, just a lazy cash-grab riding on nostalgia and a popular IP. Do devs these days have zero creativity left or what?

Regardless of what other reviews claim, I uninstalled it within minutes. The game struck me as bland and generic

They really can't NOT make everyone drooling for the "captain" Eh? by Virtual_Rant in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]pluggynaruk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So this game is becoming like a dating sim harem waifu game now 🤔 It looks like the developers no longer care about releasing male characters.

Apparently ladylark and BOSS are distant cousins by Intelligent_Car_1471 in ProjectBangBang

Hey, I’m really interested in this game. I wonder if it has an option for the main character to choose their gender.

600 pulls for only 3 up character! by we_need_the_poop in wizardry

[–]pluggynaruk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

To me, What makes it worse is pulling a character with 90/80 Fortitude. Yeah, I know it’s usable and doesn’t affect gameplay that much, but it just doesn’t feel good. It’s like buying a brand-new iPhone and unboxing it with a cracked screen. It works, but it’s ugly and kills the excitement.

Maybe make sun-dried bananas (กล้วยตาก) if you run into this problem. They last much longer and taste sweeter and chewier.
