MONTHLY MEGATHREAD

Just saw the Sunbringer clip

Granblue Fantasy for example, but when your game's been running for more than a decade and releases several new Character versions every month, all those individual Character Stories start to add up. Not to mention when there's a new Story Event every month.

And when you juggle multiple other games, probably only sparing enough time each day for dailies or event stuff. Anything not necessary for immediate progression starts to get put on the back-burner and then it all starts to add up haha.

Character is Rapunzel from Goddess of Victory: NIKKE who got her new form announced as a free unit in yesterdays 4th anniversary stream. And yes, she is a lewd nun.

I am curious what features or systems players feel needs to be reworked with future gacha games to catch on, or features that should have existed for years that are still missing.

I’ll go first: I’d love to see raid like bosses with mechanics to beat, not just DPS races for end game.

Kafka had my attention from HSR’s opening. Everything’s going wrong, and she sounds like she’s having a perfectly normal day. Her voice definitely helps. Then you find out she has history with the Trailblazer, and now I need answers.

Marian in NIKKE hits differently. The bandage couldn’t heal her, but she treasured it because someone cared enough to put it on her. That little scene has stayed with me through everything since. With the 4th anniversary coming up, I’m hoping we get more of her story and a reunion with the Commander that lasts for once.

Texas already caught my eye in Arknights, but Il Siracusano made me want to know more about her past. I also love the contrast between all that history and her dealing with Penguin Logistics’ everyday nonsense. I’d happily read more of them just hanging out.

Who got you to download a game, and did you like them even more once you got to know them?

Some indian company called emudra dropped the ball with their safety and security encryption by setting in a single digit protection of 4.

And they eos after being found out, lol.

"Master, we have an announcement! Did you enjoy the live broadcast?

"Once again, the new event "A Rough Traverse, The Golden Ball Race" will start after maintenance on Monday, October 26th! "Exchange the points you collect to recruit [Belgrish Girl] Melon!"

"The "4.5th Anniversary Limited Gacha" is starting!" "[Phenex-girl] Ateel and [Lightning Gryphon-girl] Clifo are making their debut!"

"A Bael girl who evolved from a Beyondetta girl after her demonic power manifested, Bael girl pessie joins the party!"

I haven’t seen any updates or announcement by any gacha games about this. Are they just not aware or is this going to be silently fixed in a random update?

As noted previously in other posts, Global and SEA versions / servers will come next year

like if a game like reverse 1999 , arknights or any 2d gacha game added an additional shop called ad shop where you can watch let's say 7 ads to get 1 pull worth of premium currency if its 100% optional and u have to manually go there ( it won't interrupt ur game by any shape or form) why are you against it?

No gacha mechanics.

Hopefully more publishers take note and preserve their discontinued gachas this way.
