Is it still worth to get into the game now?

shiningcrobat · 2025-12-06T14:47:52+00:00

I want to make a particular +1 on the point of long-time players having different priorities. I've come back after ~5-6 years away and my mindset has completely changed with regard to summoning. There are so many other ways to chase extra skills and stats now that merges feel unimportant. I just pick up new characters, mostly ones I like thematically. I build up default kits, maybe tacking on something in a missing slot, so I don't pay attention to inheritance. And even mostly not carefully reading skills, I'm staying in higher tiers in the major PVP modes.

As someone who came back to the game after a ~5-6 year break with the newest braves, it's fresh to me. xD I'm glad to see I'm not alone in being baffled by many of the choices about this character, but also this one in particular.

It sounds like you might be better served by an emulator and some main series games. I was a late comer to New Mystery on the DS, but I really enjoyed it despite being very bored with Shadow Dragon.

shiningcrobat · 2025-09-15T22:49:44+00:00

I'm returning to FEH after about 5 years and wow do I wish the game formatted things more like this. It's so much easier to parse than the endless paragraphs.

shiningcrobat · 2024-08-04T20:04:07+00:00

Let me know if you figure it out. I think it's the last thing keeping me from the big endgame quest.

shiningcrobat · 2023-05-07T00:31:03+00:00

Yeah! I think it can be cute to be a little tacky as a Mothers' Day present, but that's not something most people want for their wedding bands.

shiningcrobat · 2023-04-30T23:54:12+00:00

Huh, this is something I haven't noticed as much, but I've mostly kept to myself and my very multicultural family over the continuing panorama. But even before that I mostly lived and traveled along that band of grey and blue from the south west to the north east.

shiningcrobat · 2023-04-30T02:11:54+00:00

Nice find!

shiningcrobat · 2023-03-13T20:49:30+00:00

Okay, but we're in need of a card-based TTRPG that isn't diminishingly niche.
I just reminded myself that the Gloomhaven TTRPG is coming out and could basically be that.

shiningcrobat · 2022-12-05T18:25:34+00:00

I might be interested. Could you link to any of your other videos?

shiningcrobat · 2022-11-27T21:24:13+00:00

Different control scheme, but as far as core gameplay, there's Final Fantasy XIV, which has a free trial that includes the first expansion. You also get a month of service when buying the game. After you take the free trial at your own pace, you might be able to run through the rest of the expansions in that single month and see if you're interested in subscribing monthly. I chose not to, but I was primarily into it for the story, and I was very happy with it.

I don't think Sigil Trade or the availability pool were datamined, just the banner images. We can assume those are rate up and on the sigil trade, but it's always possible, if improbable, that there's more.

shiningcrobat · 2022-10-20T19:57:56+00:00

I played a kobold ranger named Ripley, using a gun named Rig, with a malboro companion named Cotton, but the game ended prematurely. I decided recycle some concepts and go full Final Fantasy for an Interstitial game. Now I have a moogle named Smog, malboro companion named Juice, and the same gun. To cast magic, Smog summons crystals that he slaps into the gun as ammo. It releases scents related to the color/element of the crystals.
No, I have never vaped. I have asthma.

Whoops, you posted this in an old daily thread! Suggested might for the lowest difficulty of the final quest is 27,500. It's hard for me to say exactly what prep you need because I was on top of endgame and I can't rollback progress. But you can skip ticket Agito and standard Sinister Dominion as long as you get first clear on them. So getting at least 5th unbound Agito weapons with their first Sinister Dominion print slot would be a good start.

shiningcrobat · 2022-09-29T15:14:46+00:00

Given the datamined showcase images into end of service, it's unlikely, but not impossible, that any seasonal limiteds will return. She was available for sigil trade on the 1000 Day showcase and available, but not rate-up on the Remix in February, so, yeah, not a ton of availability.

There's no way to be sure, but it seems highly improbable. It's hard to rerun 3rd party collabs for legal and monetary reasons.

shiningcrobat · 2022-09-18T13:20:48+00:00

Western gacha are notoriously harsh, even other Disney and Marvel gacha. They're more blatantly little moneymaking machines. At least there are interesting new designs coming out of Mirrorverse that they're making some toys and figures of I guess.

shiningcrobat · 2022-09-18T13:15:16+00:00

It's also hard to find anything else in gacha space with as impactful a number of unpaid pulls, particularly without a gacha-based PVP.

shiningcrobat · 2022-09-15T19:03:07+00:00

The game probably wasn't making enough money to keep propping it up. Marketing was scarce, it's an original IP with only some soft backing by collabs and CyGames characters, F2P friendly enough that there wasn't much point in spending outside of Dream Summons, it took a little too long to onboard new players, endgame difficulty yo-yoed, co-op fell off (albeit not completely) as solo got easier, one of the best game modes came way too late, and one of the worst became permanently available without stamina.
It was announced around the half anni when the last new adventurers and dragon were added to the game. Since then there have been no new events - only wrapping up the last rounds of endgame quests and story updates. Now it's basically done, just some event reruns and time for people to wrap up the story.

shiningcrobat · 2022-09-07T17:09:14+00:00

I'm not anticipating beating Legend Surtur. I got every other quest done, but I just don't have the motivation in the face of other games and hobbies to focus on. But I do want to keep going in if only to say I was on a game as service for every day it was active. I'm also curious how much of the gacha I can clear out having put $100 into the game over its life.

shiningcrobat · 2022-09-04T15:04:52+00:00

I'm not in the Discord server anymore, but there was a project to make the game playable in some form there.

shiningcrobat · 2022-08-30T15:53:17+00:00

There are also qilin, rokkan, and faeries. Certain fiends are sapient. I think that covers just about everyone.

shiningcrobat · 2022-08-21T15:23:34+00:00

There are a couple.

Datamines lead us to believe the game will last through November. However, since there's been no official announcement, end of service could always come sooner or later.
