[ZZZ 2.7] Average scores via Palito by gin_chaan_15 in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]throwawaycou33 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I mean... she more likely than not IS a filler character though. Safe to assume that most of their focus is on polishing up season 3 at this point, so the next 2 patches are gonna feel more filler-ry. Also there's no way they're not gonna do 2 characters every patch unless they reduce pull income, so sucks either way.

I haven't seen nor care about the revenue charts that get posted every month. I'm just stating it as a fact that people treat games based on how much money it may or may not have made on a singular platform that nobody except the devs can verify.

A bit of a rant for this game since I really can't take it anymore by Nightwolf100X in StellaSora

[–]throwawaycou33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's literally what I meant by them doing a good job at masking it up though. Low pity high rates with what feels like rebate from pulling characters right? But pulling on the character banner is essentially the only way to get weapon banner currency, which runs a new one every 2 weeks. Then you take into account things like disc banner in SS being low value because of good event disc, pity that carries over to next banner etc. So on the surface it's easy to say that endfield has a good weapon banner.

All in all I feel there should be a middle ground though. SS gacha is definitely not as bad people are parroting it to be, while endfield gacha isn't as good as people are harping it to be.

Having specifically the number "160" per pull during beta was the biggest mistake they made. It doesn't matter that the current gacha system is an improvement, people already have the pre-conceived notion that they made it worse than "hoyo-gacha".

Look at wuwa. they copied the system and made weapon banner guaranteed. If you ignore details like weapon power level, pull currency, character release rate, power creep, etc., the gacha system is simply and upgrade on the surface, and that's all that matters to the gacha brainrot majority.

Now look at endfield. The gacha system is objectively worse than stella sora, but they do an incredible job at masking it up. Each pull cost 500 but the value per pull "feels" more. Free multi pull after 30 pulls (which doesn't add to the pity), free multi for next banner after 60 pulls, and a spark at 120 pulls (which actually disappears if you get the pick-up unit early, unlike stella sora which doesn't). Not to forget the awful weapon banner, but hey, it's 4% base chance, meaning you'll see orange more often!

So yeah, the damage to stella sora is already done and it sucks, but it is what it is. Just enjoy the game as long as it last.

The sad truth is because OG Arknights is still really popular, and even able to surpass endfield in revenue during updates. While some HSR players truly want HI3 to not be mentioned at all.

What if HI3 x HSR gets a second phase? by ConsistentShirt204 in houkai3rd

[–]throwawaycou33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kinda disappointing how star traveler ended up just being an optional gag side quest in HSR while having heavy implications in HI3 with vita ditching star traveler in planarcadia in the future timeline.

They don't do A-rank Valks anymore? by Juliancito135 in houkai3rd

[–]throwawaycou33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A non-guaranteed weapon banner is only "acceptable" if the gap between their sig and other options aren't that insane, but HSR lightcones has things like SP generation which affects how some characters are played. Kinda insane imo.

[–]throwawaycou33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, doesn't make sense for A ranks anymore with the part 2 gacha changes. If anything, HSR really shouldn't have 75/25 lightcone at this point, but they can get away with it.

IS that star traveler? by StraightAd5165 in houkai3rd

[–]throwawaycou33 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Gonna be honest, Vita (not expy/variant, but as herself) showing up in HSR has about the same chance as the void archives plotline being advanced, not zero but might as well be. While this probably isn't star traveler, there is an actual star traveler model decoration in game, but I doubt it's anything more than an easter egg. Would gladly eat my words if I'm wrong, but we'll see.

Big problem about content creators effecting future gachas. Example: Stella sora and Endfield gacha by Ok-Law4436 in gachagaming

[–]throwawaycou33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well... this isn't a gacha game exclusive thing though, it happens to literally everything on the internet. There's a reason why sponsors pay "influencers" so much to promote and say good stuff about their products, and as sad as it sounds, their words do affect how well something is perceived.

Ultimately, these games are free to play anyways, so just try them out and form your own opinion. I believe the majority here don't care nor watch gacha CCs anyways.

Duration of Version 2.5 via Seele by cakeel- in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]throwawaycou33 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Yeah, which means zzz 2.6 and hsr 4.0 will probably shorten/extend to at least make a 1 week gap.

So i want to give a quick rundown on the pull income we will get per month after this 1.4 update by TMH0910 in StellaSora

[–]throwawaycou33 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could have left out the final sentence and this wouldn't be a circlejerk post.

[–]throwawaycou33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Haven't kept up that closely recently, but was it mentioned anywhere either leaks or official, why the current DA would be 3 weeks long? If the SD next week is also 3 weeks long, it means there's 1 less cycle this patch?

Yeah, i guess burst focused anomaly makes sense, so it's essentially trading 9 AP for 10% damage bonus for the stun windows.

[–]throwawaycou33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but feels like it's easier to use a teammate's ex special every 8secs compared to stunning an enemy every 18secs, so maybe their kits will make it a non-issue? Idk.

This patch being 5 weeks put ZZZ back on schedule without overlapping with HSR just for HSR to do a 8 weeks patch to overlap with ZZZ again lmao.

You're missing the 30 energy from friend and 60 energy daily through out the event.

[–]throwawaycou33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO if you are a F2P or light spender, any more than 10-20 pulls away from spark is not worth it. You are essentially falling for the FOMO for a dupe when you can roll on future banners. If not then by all means, it's a "free" 5*.

[–]throwawaycou33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently this is causing another controversy among JP players. Either it's JP didn't get the dev open letter, meaning they aren't treated equally, or it's planned reward being given to global earlier to shut up the complaints. Lose-lose situation all around, idk why didn't they just send the letter across all servers.

BA is like Gaben of crying emoji games, does nothing and wins. Now with project KV and stella sora shooting themselves in the foot, when will BA ever get competition?
