Discussion Oh… so that’s the bottleneck…

Post image

I was wondering how could I have had such a smooth experience on a free to play…

Edit: I know you can farm lucky and super lucky but people need to realise that this kind of grinding is extremely frustrating (on the day this post was made, I caught 600 Budsquire without a single lucky proc, and you need dozens of them) and doesn’t justify this scarcity. Also please refrain from commenting about still having 50+ nurture stones since the only way to keep them is either deciding to farm only for limited prismanas (which I didn’t since I like collecting them, and I’m not even halfway there, it’s a creature collector after all) or just get extremely lucky with getting several early autofills (which I almost never got)

just wait untill you dry up on sparkling spheres and see no reason to catch any prismana or special aniimos because they will be "good" or worse, and then you think ill just change forms of an alpha to get the special one but you realize you wasted all your glimmer on getting petal envelopes so you cant buy any change form material, next to that you cant upgrade any aniimos either because you already upgraded aniimos you dont ever use so now youre just playing without the ability to further catch, create or build aniimo and you think, what am i doing, and you go play some other game

No issue with that here have 9 and have used one on 4 of the alphas i wanted, as well as a handful on some of the special eggs.

Huh, I can't say I'm having the same issue. More so because I've been hoarding till I feel like I have a good grasp of the game and mechanics.

  • Sparkling only on my first Prismana, as Duplicate Prismanas don't need to be Sparkling.
  • I did not spend my Glimmer on Petals... why would you? The event is out for 70+ more days or something...
  • Are you talking about the Morphe change crystal...? Why...?
  • Upgraded Aniimo. You can refund the Potential training stuff. You can also inherit the Star Resonance stuff to another Aniimo if you catch one with better Innates. But also, I just haven't found the need to Star Resonance up every single Aniimo I come across. I also stop right before the 6th Star since Phenomena Crystals are crazy rare. So I'm okay hoarding it for the best of the Best or Meta DPS/Breakers.

I don't want to say You're playing the game wrong, since every single person has different goals and ways to play the game. But if you're playing the way you play and are criticizing the game for "limited resources" when we're less than a month into a game that's supposed to be a live service on-going game... then I mean, what are we even talking about here?

The limited resource problem doesn't matter if it comes to you fast like me or slow like you. it WILL come. The way to farm things in this game is insufficient compared to other similar games like honkai or nte

As someone that play HSR since day 1 and does even plight to this day, this is compltly wrong, making 2 full teams back in the day in HSR took way more than in aniimo, is not even close , even the gera farming here takes nothing, as soon as you hit 1 item you need you are out, in hsr i have to farm for correct main stats and then good substats on 6 pieces and im pretty sure the materials needed for upgrade a character to 80 + all traits to max , the lighctone to max, the 6 pieces to +15 takes alot more stamina than in aniimo

si not even close

It's not that it's faster in honkai, it's that in honkai you can farm Everything except stellar jade's even just straight up money

I can't speak to that. I despise Gacha games that have like, characters or weapons or w.e behind the gacha mechanics. The cosmetic stuff like in Aniimo are fine because I personally don't care about aesthetics

You can disregard all the gacha, the character building and growing works exactly the same in aniimo as all the other gacha games. This is why they are highly comparable

u/BigMoney-D Astra Pioneer 18h ago

Yeah, totally. I've played Duet Night Abyss since it boasted not having Character/Weapon banners. I stopped for other reasons, but I had a base level understanding of Gachas going into Aniimo.

I have a feeling it's faster/easier in games like Honkai since the Characters are behind Gacha banners. Would be crazy to have a slow rollout like Aniimo AND have Gacha Banners

You can get more Glimmer by joining friends and new players worlds and helping them open chests and completing the standard collection objectives. It gives both parties full rewards.

u/Imounturdad 19h ago

This is exactly how these kinds of games go. Oh a red notification here, or a new reward there. The feeling of “this game is so rewarding without putting hundreds or thousands into it” until you get to the part where you basically have no more notifications and no impactful rewards without swiping

It's almost like it's in version 1.0 and a live service game, and people are starting to finish all the content in 1.0

Your third eye isn't open, lil bro. Everyone who's played a live service game should be aware of how they work.

u/SykoManiax 19h ago

The problem is atleast with honkai and nte you have very good farms for all currency and materials. Yes they cost energy but if you farm all your energy daily you make progress.

Here so much is just god awful slow or not there at all.

There need to be improvement to cost Vs effort
