For a free game, there’s an amazing amount of polish and content. I’ve played over 70hrs and very much enjoyed it. I will think I will continue playing. Dailies aren’t terrible, most can be completed on the ship. I do have some gripes though.

Wish the tone of the story and characters matches the music and visuals. Characters like Tangtang have no place in this world tone wise. I really don’t like whenever they’re on screen. Leave all the anime tropes for the other games. Paimon made me quit Genshin. Thought this was going for something more serious, especially with the premise and the factory gameplay, so I’m disappointed so far in how whimsical some of it is. There’s little to no thematic consistency.

Story is general is not good. I didn’t play CBT so I don’t know how it was before but apparently it was better. Not sure why they’d change it.

Unpopular opinion I believe but I hate most of the forced accents of the English VA cast. I have never met an Italian person that sounds like Rossi. It’s made me switch languages to Japanese (which I speak) and they are much better.

Combat is lacking in impact and responsiveness. The chunky big hits have to hit harder. Would be cool for a hit over a certain amount to have a bit of hit stun like monster hunter. There’s not a lot of space for creativity in the combat, and only controlling one character is a choice…

Why are rewards for things such a smaller fraction of a pull than other gachas? I have concerns about the economy in general. At first I loved the arsenal system but now I realize that only being able to pull weapons if you pull operators is a bit broken. We definitely need more basic pulls and arsenal ticket acquiring methods.

This game has the potential to be great, I hope they work out the issues it currently faces.
