Post EoS news

>>33412437
Huh, I thought it already shut down long ago.

>>33412437
How many years have passed since the anime

>PTD having a collab with Revue Starlight.
When will this game be finally killed by SE?

>>33414696
I hear Revue isn't doing too well nowadays either. Probably not as at risk as SE's typical kusoge, but at least these two will help keep each other off life support for a while.

>>33414696
Never? Tomorrow? It's completely impossible to tell because I don't think anyone could have predicted PTD to survive until now in the first place.

>>33414696
Never just like how years of doomposting tagatame hasn't changed anything

>>33415191
To be fair, SE just announced they killed Valkyrie Profile and Kingdom Hearts mobage yesterday

>>33415294
I really wonder what their criteria is for killing games. And then it's funny when you consider stuff like Mashiro Witch was killed probably a few months in, only for them to announce a CN version afterwards (or at least shortly before)

>CUE is ending service because it borked one update
Are you fucking kidding me? April Fool's is still over a month away.

>>33416235
Why would you kill a game before its announced anime even aired?

>>33416235
>CUE is ending service
Where did you see this? I see nothing in the usual channels.

>>33415532
SE (and Scamco) are hard to guess despite they usually killed most of their mobages really fast but we still don't know why SE finally decided to kill Million Arthur.

>>33415532
As a PTD player since day 1, the time for doomposing is actually really here. The current schedule roadmap ends at March so either the game ends soon or it gets extended for another 6 months. We'll find out soon I guess.

>>33416235
The current extended maintenance is only due to the usual iOS delay though. Nothing was said about CUE's service closure.

>>33416626
>>33416980
At midnight JST the game briefly went up and people saw the service closure announcement then it went down again. Search the hashtag #キュー on Twitter.

>>33417063
Damn it looks like it's real. This is the first time I saw a game end before its anime flops.

>>33417188
I am seriously hoping that it was a "just in case" thing, like if maintenance ends up taking over a week or something, and not actually happening.

>>33417342
At least they don't have to blame the anime flopping for the game's service closure. Now they can blame the game closing for the inevitable anime flop.

>>33417188
>Shuts down CUE
>See you guys in NEW CUE game after the anime!
Will they retain players?

>>33417500
Will it be a rhythm game? Those things seem to be popular as fuck lately.

>>33417525
There is no mention but you can certainly bet on it.

>>33417500
If they wanted to do something like that, I'd rather they update the current game instead of closing it and setting up a new one. This kind of shit is downright annoying.

>>33417188
Well at least there's still another 2 months. Shame, the girls were pretty cute.

>>33417342
Kek imagine living in a world where you have to prepare shit like that

>>33417188
This reads like they plan on improving the app so they take it down to focus on that and relaunch later? What the fuck

>>33419180
Can't wait to play 「CUE! Re:Dive」in 2023.

>>33420728
CUE! 2 - Re:Do

>>33414696
SE is weird with their kusoge, they just never let some of them die. Barely anyone playing multi? Life support for a few years. Some other new game not doing too well not too long after release? Ok let's kill it.

>>33417188
Remind me how this NES era kusoge company managed to stay afloat until now

>>33417500
I doubt it but they do have another game, dead last on cellulan that actually deserved that treatment

>Turn off notifications on Google Play
>Still get notifications that tell me to turn on my notifications
So not only is it sapient, it's also an asshole.

>>33428088
Samsung phones have no option to disable notifications from Samsung.
What is my next phone going to be?

>>33434693
Iphone of course

>>33434693
The ASUS ROG 3.

>>33439112
>not the ROG 5

>>33439202
Wait what happened to 4?

>>33439209
Skipped because 4 = death.

>>33439222
Oh for crying out loud.

>>33439228
It's actually common for mainland chink companies but I didn't quite expect Asus to pull this as well.

Hope the K40 pro is cheap enough in the UK compared to the chink RRP. Shame for the pinhole camera though, I hate that shit.

>>33439490
>UK
Just get the Motorola Edge S

>>33439527
>2 pinhole cameras

are oppo phones any good? found some 8gb ram beast for like $300 the other day

>>33439583
Just hide them.

>>33439593
Oppo phones are generally good (OnePlus phones are the global version of Oppo phones), though there's more than just the RAM that counts

>>33439632
I would end up doing but an AMOLED screen is a must for me. That and the jacked up prices + import fees/VAT wouldn't make the phone worth it

Why does Muka's route hurt so much? God dammit Irene.

>>33439961
I actually feel pretty sad about GCG. The new publisher used to be very active when updating their twitter account but now they barely update and it seems like they've given up just like Marvelous did before. I'll still play the game until its last day since I'm pretty attached to it but I feel like it doesn't have that much longer to live.

The absolute madmen

>>33443754
So the new SSR in PoE seems like another single target pure DPS. Her normal skill only does damage. Her ougi hits two targets and deals boosted crit damage if her HP is higher. Her passive also boosts her own crit damage if you have equal or more alive allies than the opponent. She also does an additional 2/3/5% damage for every 10% missing health her target has, depending on her own star.

Not sure how useful she will be in PVP but she seems very strong against single target bosses in guild war especially against the new ones that go into gorilla mode at <50% HP. Against an enemy with less than 10% HP left and at 7*, she effectively has a 45% damage boost, and a 40% crit damage boost that stacks on top of that (whether it's additive or multiplicative, I don't know yet). When you account for things like H.Shou's and Lisa's damage taken increase debuffs, she should be theoretically able to shit out very high numbers. Unfortunately she's suffering from some pretty low modifiers. Her ougi is only 170% and her normal skill literally does nothing else besides the base 135% atk damage that is nothing special.

The new event SR looks more geared towards the AOE battles in guild war. She's very straightforward. Ougi is 100% atk on all enemies. Skill is just single target damage while restoring 100 SP. Her passive dispels shields, and as a guildwar-only effect, seems like she will remove a debuff from a random ally at the start of every turn (very good against the griffon that inflicts Charm for instance). The shield dispel seems like it might have a counter niche when fighting against defense teams in PVP that run NY Francesca and Gloria, as her AOE ougi should be able to dispel all of the shields setup by those two in one go.

>>33444053
That being said, I wish they'd stop throwing new units whose only purpose is to do damage at us. They are really scared of giving us a new SSR with more support utilities since that would probably break the game right now seeing as how strong and meta near-launch characters like Lisa and Sherry still are.

>>33444053
Got her in 46 rolls. It was literally just my guild battle gems so I can actually save this month.

>>33444211
Congrats! I am still recovering from my going full stupid and blowing all 130 rolls I had on swimsuit Ravi only to end up with almost nothing. Will probably skip this and save for whatever new random limited they decide to throw at us next.

>>33444053
>thought about quitting
>got her in 30 rolls
well looks like i am not free

My wife Lisa in the background.

>>33444282
>I'll quit if I don't get this new bitch
I've been saying that since the game started anon. So far, I've got all the characters and 45k gems left without spending even once.

>>33444316
>So far, I've got all the characters
I do not have a picture that kneels hard enough for this.

>>33444053
Got it mixed with the new event SR.
Her passive abilities are switched. The clear works anywhere, shield removal is guild battle only.

Meanwhile in Re Zero land, Formal Roswaal is obliterating my hopes of getting anywhere in PVP.

>>33439593
They're fine, but the processor matters a lot more than the RAM. 6 GB is already plenty.

>>33439716
Well, alright then. I'll just remind you that SD888 has overheating problems so unless you get an active cooling system of sorts (like the Black Shark FunCooler Pro accessory or a Nubia Red Magic 6), stick with the SD870 instead.

>>33443754
Ok, I feel like getting in now, is it a good time to start?

>>33444304
That art looks so scuffed for the quality most of the other shit is.

New skill card is 31% defense for members of the Anastasia camp.
It also provides a 10% heal upon incoming damage.
Now your Julius can be Mimi too!
Or just make Mimi even MORE annoying!
Heck make everyone Mimi!
Have fun!

Cherry Blossom Knight, Julius

Leader Skill: 50% resistance to debuffs for all team members

Passive 1: HP +10%
Passive 2: SPD +10%
Passive 3: ATK +30%

Skill 1: Physically attacks a single enemy with 400% power and has a 100% chance of triggering a coordinated attack.
Skill 2: When damaged, all allies have a 100% chance to increase their action gauge by 30%, and gain a one turn attack buff. At the start of battle, Julius has a 100% chance to activate one turn of guard.
Skill 3: (Initial Cooldown: One Turn) Attacks a single enemy twice with 700% power, has a 100% chance to remove all buffs on target, activates 2 turns of defense reduction on target, and has a 100% chance to grant Julius one turn of guard. (Cooldown: Four turns)

This guy is a nice blue support pseudo tank.
His first skill pairs well with allies like Subaru who has taunt on his basic attack.
His passive let's him do Rem's job with the added bonus of providing a boost to attack.
That being said he can't keep guard up too consistently after the first two turns so if you can get around that he can be safely ignored.
Of course the other option would be to just nuke him outright or use stall techniques to avoid accelerating his team to much.
You could also use accelerator punishers like Christmas Emilia.
Now while he does have the ability to force damage on himself he's not a true tank as he only has a measly +10% HP to his name regarding defenses so you'll want to give him a defensive skill card and back him up with a good healer.
Otherwise he won't live long against dps.
Nice strong nuke on the third skill which also preps for follow up attacks.

>>33448110
Here's his Live2D.
Lots of purple.

>>33448127
And his skill cut in.

Next collab re-run in Compass is Danmachi - it'll run from the 1st ~ 7th with a double UR gacha for the whole duration.

>>33448602
Man Compass looks fun.
Would try it if I didn't have other mobages to take care of.

>>33448618
It's pretty low maintenance, most of the time you only need to win three games a day to complete your dailies that give gacha currency

>>33447671
Anytime is a good time to start since this is a game where the earlier you start the better as most progression in the mid and lategame is timegated. If you are mainly interested in the nopan girl, she is the current free event SR so yes now would be a good time to start.

>>33408093
Have more enthusiasm. Nobody likes a downer.

bump

So what went wrong with CUE?

You know how in Alice Gear Aegis trying to peek under the skirt or simply under the girls activates the censor system? The blonde Ti2 from the Dariusburst collab has that censor disabled, she wears sexy black pantsu.

>>33466228
It got an anime

>>33467096
And so did mashumairesh

>>33467068
Can that censor system be disabled? If not, do we at least have datamines showing the actual pantsu?

>>33469566
No idea, I thought that maybe collab charas were not censored but tried with PTD Yuki and the censor appeared.

>>33469566
Dunno if you can disable it outright, but I've seen enough pantsu screenshots to know there's ways around it, at least.

>>33467068
That censor shit is inconsistent as fuck, a lot of time they decided it's safe to show because it's just a bodysuit with a skirt put on, Another Koyui or Fatima for examples.

>>33469770
>model these detailed panties
>censor them
Dumb decision. If they didn't want to show panties, why bother modelling them in the first place?

>>33470170
>didn't want to show panties
Nah, they just want to make you work for it a bit.

>>33469975
>Not knowing the grit and determination of Japanese researchers
They knew, because they are them.

AGA has great models but hate how the gacha tickets expire and you can't hold more than 50. Used my last 30 tickets to get the Darius girl.

At least they are giving another free silver bag...

>>33471499
Game has fuck awful gacha system that only benefit whales. No spark system in 2021 should be a crime.

>>33471842
A crime that F/GO will forever get away with. Even if actual laws are implemented they won't need to comply/

Another rezero game?

>>China

Now I'm playing 3/5 Chinese games and considering a chinese phone while my favorite characters are from fictional china. Are the chinese taking over the world?

>>33483008
throw more darts and you'll hit more boards

>>33483008
I love my Xiaomi Redmi. They may have a shit government but their tech and games are nice.

>>33483008
It's pretty sad when Chink actually try something new with their games while Jap just endlessly copypaste the same few successful games over and over again.

>>33483274
>Now you remember the 'chinese copycat everything' meme

>>33474878
That makes three.
The Chinese one has cool art but couldn't get access for obvious reasons.
Lost memories is standard fare. Best part is the branching story system.
There's some neat what ifs explored.
Not sure if I have time for yet another mobage though.

>>33483008
China is the USA except more honest.
Communism got replaced by Capitalism as the latter does the former's job much better.

>>33487709
>more honest
elaborate

>>33483008
China could physically do the same shit the west did for years already, now they learned and copied the technique as well. They simply have more people but the same variance, so they have more good shit, but they also have more bad shit.

>>33483274
You don't like FGO clone number 98641658189?

>>33483274
There are some new interesting new JP games imo but most of them don't seem to have a future and usually dead in about 1 year or faster because there are too many mobages nowadays so most of their demographic target will just play established ones instead

Chink games require too much gameplay. They don't understand the market.

>>33466228
No one's playing it

>>33483008
I am still waiting on that Idol Infinity rhythm game.

>>33492302
To be fair most of the real bad stuff never gets translated to JP or EN, so it goes largely unnoticed by most of the world since not many people here follow weibo or whatever.

>>33494226
Tell that to PUBG and CoD mobile

>>33494226
How many of them are rhythm games though?

Soon.

where my sakura kakumei bros at

How can I download a specific japanese APK off the playstore? I don't wanna install other weird software to keep it updated.. I'm trying to get Duel Masters Plays.

>>33504311
Make a JP google account, turn on a VPN and clear data on Google Play and Google Play Services. Open up Google Play, swap to JP account and hit install on your app. You can cancel all of them and turn off the VPN, then resume after that. It doesn't work for some people apparently so I guess good luck.

>>33504343
Is there sites anymore that will download the APK for you? or are those no longer safe?

>>33504370
Never used them, I always just used a VPN until they stopped you from nation hopping without making another account. Then once QooApp started throwing retarded ads I just said fuck it and made a JP account.

>>33489110
It's a one party system vs the two party shenanigans in the United States.

>>33501561
Aptly named.

>>33500120
Barely any? Do chinese have music people want to play?

Pls tell me that this is just another AFK shit reskinned in pricunny coating

>>33501561
should i try the global , what makes this game different from the other 100 cute girls i should be playing ?

>>33508645
For starters the characters are not chibis or jpgs, so that puts it above 90% of similar games by default.

>>33508713
sounds like an easy way to make the phone consume 50 % more battery

>>33508745
Your BatterySaver bro? Though the only 3D intensive game I play on my phone is PGR and have not noticed the battery draining faster than usual.

All of the co-op portal key capture missions have been completed in Compass - don't forget to redeem them for a stab at some UR cards.

>The rerolling is still a piece of shit in PoE
Ok, I guess not even fetishes can keep me from trying it.

>>33521834
The only time that was a good time to reroll in the game was when they were giving out free daily 10s for 18 days back in January. They might do something like that again during anniversary but that won't be until July.

Apparently Warau Ars Notoria just released. What do we think about it? The artstyle reminds me of something but I can't put my finger on it

>>33523231

>>33527144

>>33523231
I like the art, but I guess thats the main point
Too bad we live in a society where game != horse game => game = bad

>>33528088
Not that it isn't like most other media out there, but it's somewhat saddening how kusoge's popularity, and thus financial success and livelihood, are largely dependent on name recognition; there's a lot of decent games out there that go unrecognized because the studio behind it a literal who.

>>33537267
Brand recognition is kinda important for mobages since at least it ensures that the game won't fucking dead randomly on a nice day because the literally who studio can't keep up with it. It also help people to avoid well known traps like SE kusoges.

Looks like PTD will still live until its 4th anniversary. Truly an immortal zombie game.

>>33523231
Grand Summoners look-alike since it's same company

>>33544251
Hmm yes.
All of these will do.

>>33544251
I love PTD. Its one of those games that remain installed on my tablet together with Honkai and AGA.

>>33544928
I think I know how you feel anon. I've been playing since day 1 and I haven't missed a day for some reason.

>Tenka is trending on JP twitter
Tenka bros is this our chance?

Is it possible to get a good phone for mobile games for around $300?
Would prefer if it can run something intensive like Genshin at a playable level.

>>33548140
Why? The because of the coming collab?

>>33549449
It depends on your location and service providers but yes it's possible with a good deal and contract

>>33549521
https://twitter.com/AKEroot03/status/1367475313345589248?s=19
This set it off

>>33550827
>Cute dad mistake makes Tenka trend on twitter.
I wouldn't have believed this if I didn't see it.

>>33549449
For new phones you can get something decent but not amazing, the game should still definitely be playable as long as you turn down the settings and can accept frame drops.
For more flagship phones you'd have to look at either spending more money or looking for older phones on sale - I have a Snapdragon 845 and Genshin was definitely playable at medium settings (though it gets hot and the battery drains fast), so you will want that or higher if you want good visuals and performance from it.

>>33549449
What's your country?

>>33553923
>>33549594
Any model suggestions of good phones around that price without a contract?

It's 1999 yuan on the official site but the cheapest one on Taobao is currently 2199 yuan. Either get that, or get someone to buy it for 1999 yuan and ship it to you using Parcl or something.

just started dx2 and pulled yoshitsune on his 2nd step up. would it be better to switch to rama step up instead of going all the way for another yoshitsune?

Redownloaded a game I was really interested in but dropped a month in. Went to go check its Twitter, tweets 2-3 times a week, all with <10 likes.
Damn, I hope it won't be kill soon.

>>33576452
Twitterbucks are not a reliable indicator of financial state, and I've seen plenty of games get by with tiny levels of twitter interaction... but I'm not sure THAT little is a good sign. Enjoy it while you can.

Yes.
Not to be confused with Alternative Girls 1 where best girl Airi was brutally killed and reincarnated into AG2 with a permanent cold.

5G was the biggest mistake for budget-flagship phones. Drives up the price to provide something that most people won't benefit from for a long time.

>>33602062
It really detracts from the visuals. Would've probably been fine if they made them more neutral colors like grey, dull blue, etc.

>Do a 10-roll trying to get at least rate-up SR in a kusoge

Rate-up is a lie

>>33587034
I'll never know why the replacement didn't record in her own style instead of trying to mimic the original. All of the catch phrases ended up weird but she seems okay in new content.

Whatever, that was an eon ago. I'm having a hard time remembering when I got a rateup 4-star without issue.

Is crash fever still alive? Seems like it would be a good puzzle game to scratch that PAD itch.

>>33614087
Supposedly yes and they do an Anos collab recently

Man, I understand how having a wide range of voices is important and it's kind of expected by now, but the difference between Rena from T7S and Airi from CUE is still jarring as fuck even now.

Looks like Code: Seed is out for global; didn’t it get shutdown in Japan?

>>33631775
I didn't lose faith with Tenka I didn't lose faith with PTD I sure as fuck ain't gonna start now

how does one figure out whether japanese is saying increase or decrease cooldown?
I feel like there's an inversion here.
I translate it to increase cooldown but it seems to speed up the timer?

Nice I managed to win first try. I Was hesitant to roll because I wanna save for the collab but I like her attack animations.

Animae Arche releases on the 25th.
Starting with 30 rolls at launch sounds comfy assuming the reroll process isn't hell.

It's Chinese. Try again, anon.

Yikes!

>>33642798
It slightly bothers me that China and Taiwan (and probably others in the Sinosphere) indicate gains/positives in red text and losses in green.

>>33642798

>>33642798
Chink action game devs need to realize that nips hate it when they have to actually play the game. Genshin is probably the only exception to this.

>>33644773
>nips hate it when they have to actually play the game.
Explain why rhythm games are so popular then.

>>33644992
majority of nips just roll for cute girls and watch the concerts
very very very few nips are the rhythm game autist type that spends hours getting good enough to 100% perfect FC every hard song in the game
in some games where you have to "grind" for event rewards there are mechanics ingame that allow you to AFK while still completing songs so you technically don't have to play at all

>>33644992
Because you have to move around when playing an action game
>Pick a song and start playing during my train ride home awesome!
VS
>Oh fuck I actually have to go through the stage to fight enemies? I ain't got time for that shit!
Nips love shit you can pull out on the fly and play straight away when you have 5 minutes or so that's why turn-based games were you click a few times and then watch the animation are super popular

>>33645142
>very very very few nips are the rhythm game autist type that spends hours getting good enough to 100% perfect FC every hard song in the game
You know the majority of people who are like that are nips, right? Outside of Japan there are actually much fewer such autists.

>>33645147
Most stages take like 3 minutes to clear.

>>33644992
>He doesn't have a full auto team in SS

>>33645167
just because maybe 0.0001% of western gacha players are rhythm game autists vs japan's 0.01% doesn't mean rhythm game autists make up most of japan's mobile game playing population

>>33645167
>Most stages take like 3 minutes to clear
Yes which is very little time while on a train ride home and you get to listen to your favorite music and seeing your favorite girl do cute dances on stage while in an action game you're much more focused on evading and attacking while listening to default music that you may or may not find very shitty. It's just easier for the normal nip to get into rhythm game even if they're not that good while a bunch are more hesitant to try an action game.

>>33644992
Rhythm games don't really work well on a normal gamepad so your choice for playing them basically comes down to; your phone, playing a game which has a specialized peripheral you can buy, or going to an arcade, so for a lot of people a phone is simply just the best way for them to play rhythm games.
With other game types though if you're actually going to play them you'd just get better gameplay playing something on your console, so not having them being low effort auto dopamine simulators is kind of a downside when you can just play something better.

>>33642798
Imagine thinking I care about profits lmao. Game is free and will play until service shutdown, then move to the next game.

If the game is shit I stop playing way before service shutdown so the game dies early for me,

bro...

The new Luna-Tower-esque content in PoE is stupidly difficult. It's like the equipment tower stages except scaled to be 4x as strong as you. Enemies have around 2.7m power in pic-related. Their normal attacks hit for around 700k if you guard, and around 1.4-2m damage normally. Their skills hit for somewhere around 2m+, with certain special moves just instantly killing you like pic-related.

Feels like they want you to bring a gorillion attack debuffs because going full glass cannon doesn't help either since these enemies actually have a decent amount of HP and defense.

>>33650080
Well here's the endgame content for PoE then.

Finally finished now to wait for Ready Player 2 Reimu

>>33650080
Damn I could only get to the 4th stage. They really hit like a truck.

Gustav's season has started in Compass and will run until the 21st - usual stuff applies.
883 BM and 8830 energy have also been given out as part of a Papamin/Delmin Twitter campaign from a bit ago - people who play Show by Rock will also receive something

>>33654394
Youmu ?

>>33658814
Yes

>>33655525
Game Bazooka Girl has also been buffed today:
>Attack power increased from 1.30 to 1.35
>Movement speed increased by 1%
>Reduced the gap between cancelling the first normal attack by 0.1 seconds
>Reduced the minimum time to activate her hero skill by 0.4 seconds
>Reduced the time before you can move after using her hero action by 37%
She definitely seems a lot more viable now that her hero action isn't as risky

Her full song was also released: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4hb4Fyyylc

>>33659853
did she finally hit puberty and got chuunbyo ?

>>33645167
Starlight Stage made it so that you could clear a song on any difficulty (previously it had to be on master difficulty) in order to unlock MV mode. They might have an autistic crowd but being Japanese doesn't magically remove casuals from the population.

>>33664983
>previously it had to be on master difficulty
Wait, Master+ doesn't work?

>>33665438
I forget if master+ for normal songs was around when they implemented it, but completing it on master/master+ for event songs would unlock the MV.

Might be a long shot but does anyone have any team comps for demon tower? I'm not really good at team building so I just end up blowing my load in 1 floor, using my free heal, then blowing my load in the next floor.

>>33655525
>>33660935
Based compass anon. Game is pretty great, it’s like tf2 mixed with mega man battle network and has a smash bros concept of crossovers.

To that one anon who recommended me picking up Sdorica: Thank you.
Halfway through the 2nd season now.

Do you need a VPN to play Compass?

Nope

No problem!
Game's quite a treat for its story alone.
Come hang out in the /vmg/ thread if you want.
It's nice and slow.

>>33684242
Yeah they said spring of this year but
>EN
No point in starting on a server that's gonna be way behind on girls, cube gain nerfed from the get go, and has a high chance of shutting down prematurely. Besides I got chuni Youmu and Marisa forma Roja who are both strong limiteds I won't ever get lucky again.

>>33686942
Good point.
I will try it out regardless since I chose Cannonball instead of Lost Word for my Touhou mobage.
Since the former died might as well check the other one out.

Glad the changes are as effective as they seemed, definitely gives her the capability for a more aggressive playstyle

>>33474878
Apparently this is a DMM game so I'm not sure if it will be on phones.

>>33691517
They've been giving those out every weekend for a long time though.

>>33692511
none of them

I am kind of surprised the Google Docs in the OP post is still updated.

What confuses me about DMM games are the ones that are only on DMM and not on phones as well.
Do Japanese really like browser games?

>>33698001
What are you doing here then?

How DO you play Kancolle even?
Kinda want to experience history.

>>33705891
>Kancolle in 2021.
Don't do that anon, even if you really hate yourself that much.

>>33706061
It can't be that bad.
What could an old game throw at me that newer ones haven't tried?

>>33706072
>what could an old game
>game

>>33706087
Wait.
Kancolle isn't a game?

>>33706092
it's a RNG simulator for people that hate themselves
Azur Lane has more gameplay

>>33706109
So it's like my calculator?!
What fun!

>>33705891
>>33706072
I personally still have PTSD. Anyway you're better off asking their general.

>>33706092
If you want a better, improved Kancolle, just play Girl Frontline.

>>33706138
Didn't know they had one.
Thanks for the advice.

>>33705891
Kancolles golden age was over when they decided to release LBAS in Spring 2016 and fuck ressources and new players.
Literally every event since spring 2016 has been maximum RNG because the devs expect you to kill everything with LBAS, fucking cancer game

Anyone else stuck on infinite loading on title screen for Code Seed?

>>33722114
Mah boyo!

>>33718412
Jewish and gameplay is honestly unfun.
Character art and designs were overall low quality.
Rigging designs were pathetic.
Rate of character release is super slow and seems to be no rhyme or reason to how they pick characters to release. I mean, I understand the ship-girls genre is a crowded niche, but come on, drop me a Yamato or a Bismarck or Iowa or something.

>>33722350
Unfortunate that it panned out badly.
Enjoy your freed time.

>>33706109
I'll never understand why they didn't do more with the franchise. Other than arcade I guess.

>>33723137
Because that requires money and they want to spend the least amount of money for max profits.

"Casual mobile game".

This is very difficult to use to describe Kantai Collection while keeping a straight face. I wonder who can, because indeed it is hard.

"Casual", you say, while grinning like Voltaire did. "Casual", it is its description. But then, thinking of "casual", you think about all the players who fell into despair trying and failing to clear the penultimate map of Ironbottom Sound. You think about all those who failed to clear 2nd SN even with hardcap resources. You think about the Tei difficulty level which was added because Hei was still too hard and how many of them still struggled to clear events despite a new lowest difficulty level.

But then, the funniest is coming: "mobile". Yes, now, you cannot contain your laughter. "Mobile", it is called despite the fact that this "mobile" spreadsheet simulator literally banned people for playing on mobile devices for four years before finally adding an Android port, an app so user-unfriendly and unintuitive that the majority of players refused to touch it. A nightmare to play anywhere other than on PC, yes, but still being called "mobile".

And now, here is the end of the fun: "game". Now you fell on the ground, laughing so hard that you cannot breathe. A "game", a spreadsheet simulator made of dozens of pure RNG mechanics, all determined by a roll of the dice, giving either success or failure with a single click, full of hope or despair. A "game" which will stay as one with no gameplay other than RNG, while the great developers of actual games will create fun gameplay for all around the world.

>casual
>mobile
>game

>>33723137
They tried, but they failed miserably so they just stopped. Like that shitty Kancolle kai game on vita, dozen of manga spin off that got axed after a few chapters, or the crappy anime that somehow got season 2 greenlit yet after years still show no sign of getting released.
Now they just milk the franchise through those real life events and collab products.

>>33723165
All of this just makes me want to try it out even more.
Sounds like a great time.
Games that induce despair are the best!

>>33723643
>Games that induce despair are the best!
Like every game with gacha system?

>>33723165
this is a good post

>>33723667
A fair point.
Kancolle sounds like ultimate coalescence of all unholy attributes into one.
Reminds me of that one long weekend I spent with an old RPG called Bloody Warriors where approaching the final dungeon has an event that randomly induced permadeath on some or none (if lucky) of your party.

New owl girl in poe:
Skill: Attack 1 enemy and regen 150 SP
Ougi: Attack 1 enemy and inflict Blind for 1 turn.
3 EX skills
1: For the first turn has +20% ATK/DEF.
2: If an ally dies restores SP according to star level. 3/5/7 stars = 150/200/230 SP respectively.
3: Attacks penetrate the invul shield evante has. Assist attacks are exempt.

Another shipgirl game in Spring 2021. Pre-reg has been up for a while. Been playing the TW open beta and it's a decent rpg. Art and anime cut-ins are good too. Only bad thing is these devs can't make their minds on what their game is and each major update changes the game completely. Hope they get their stuff together in the JP release.

>>33728052
how would you compare it to AL ?

>>33728052
>Another chibishit autobatler botegame
I pass, I wish they could try with planes or something else instead of just releasing the same botestuff, we got enough with KC and AL, why would we need another.

>>33729478
There were plenty of games about planes out there, but most of they got shut down because planes aren't as popular as ships for whatever reasons.

>>33728052
Is that the one that made you pay premium currency to unlock events?

>>33728660
never played AL so I can't personally say, though those who have played both say they are somewhat similar to each other.

>>33730774
never had to pay any paid currency to unlock events. paid content is for the usual premium skins and crystal packs.

>>33728052
unironically looks soulless I know people like to copy what's currently popular but this doesn't really look like it's briging anything new to the table. I've never played a ship girl game before but what makes this one better than AL is what I would ask the devs what can I get here that I can't get from AL.

>>33728052
I remember seeing vids for this a long time ago. Doesn't seem like anything special except you can play as the edgy antagonist faction from the start?

>>33731384
>except you can play as the edgy antagonist faction from the start?
this sounds pretty special
i'm always pissed because enemies tend to get better designs for my taste but i'm never allowed to pick them.

>>33731410
That's usually because devs tend to make them playable later down the line. It's just most games take too long to do this and fail to realize most people can only wait so long.
For instance I picked up Girls Frontline the moment I saw the leaks for playable enemy faction girls but the game didn't actually get the update until around two years later which was far past the point of when I dropped it.

>>33731300
Well, the core rpg gameplay is samey as any other rpgs out there. I'd say one "unique" thing about Abyss Front/Dark Boom/Black Surge Night (please for the love of god, pick a title and stick with it devs) is the abyss function where you can abyss a ship for more edge and stats.

There's also a map system where you take over enemy ports to progress in the main story. However, enemies can "invade" a port you have previously taken and kinda forces you to make a defense team to defend the targeted ports or let it be taken over by the enemy and take it over again. Even after completing the entire map, there will still be enemies outside the map to send their forces to invade your nodes.

Aside from those, you have PVP, abyss leviathan (daily missions), challenge missions (inc. restrictions for factions, ship types, specific ships, etc.) for skins, guild/alliance raids, ruins for farming ships, lightning sea (think it's like a tower system), etc.

Events are also varying since these devs love to experiment. One event could have a raid-like mechanic where you spam a boss to reduce their HP (while farming currency to buy stuff from the shop) and another event can have you clearing a fog (by also spamming a node several times). Some events are more tedious than others, especially that dumb fog one.

Gacha-wise, the rates are okay-ish. 4% for an SSR and 10% for SR. No guarantee SR and above in a 10-roll. For limiteds, pity is at 15 10-rolls to buy the limited ship in a separate shop.

There is a UR rarity where it requires you to do "analysis missions" with five specific SSR ships. Getting 100% on all five will give the UR ship so it's a long-term investment for just one ship. The only one right now is Yamato which requires Shoukaku, Zuikaku, Yuudachi, Akagi and Kaga.

Aside from all those, everything else are things you've seen before.

PS: Prinz Eugen is best girl.

>>33732150
explain the abyss functon in detail

>>33732150
Ohhh, so this is the game where you need to roll 5 SSR (some of them limited) to try and get the UR one. Didn't Akagi and Kaga had a split rate up?
Hard pass, I'll stick with AL.

>>33732150
Being able to turn your boats into edgelords sounds cool but I just picked up AL again last week so probably gonna be a pass for me.

Apparently the Re Zero DMM game pre registration event has a daily free 10 rolls of a pre registration gacha where you get to keep one character you roll to get for free on release presumably.
There's also a chance on winning physical stuff like figurines but good luck getting that if you're not in Japan.

>>33729831
Really liked the plot and setting to Kotobuki, but so few plane otaku and the planes all being Japanese that the game lasted but a year.
Dammit Scamco, you seriously couldn't have shoveled a billion or two of the mountain of iM@S yen into anything more than the show's plane models and sound effects.

>>33734851
>>33734851
>Being able to turn your boats into edgelords sounds cool
yeah it is here is a normal bote girl

>>33738299
>>33734851
and here is her abyssal form

>>33738299
What a pattable tum.

>>33738299
I like the idea but I like her normal art more. What's gem gain for rolls, etc I'm always down to try trash.

>>33736982
Is this gonna have If storylines or is it just gonna be a by the books gacha?

>>33732315
Abyss is split into three parts:
Experiment is where the actual abyssing happens. You use the abyss mats farmed from dailies and other places to transform the shipgirls/dolls to their abyss/ghost forms. The mats differ between rarities.
Equip Reform is where you spend BP (money) and mats to increase the stats on your abyss ships.
Analysis is where all the research for the UR ship occurs. Currently, all the ships needed to get Yamato are all non-limited SSRs, though future URs may include limited SSRs.

>>33738650
Gacha uses tickets only. And normally, it costs 100 gems for 1 ticket. However, the shop sells 1 ticket for 80K BP (refreshes everyday) and can sometimes have another ticket slot containing 3 tickets that can be bought with 80 gems. There are other places that can drop tickets like rewards from retaking a port from an enemy invasion, cruiser/excavation, tasks (daily gives 1 and weeklies give 10), panel missions, achievements.

Gems can be dropped from finishing story nodes, 1st clear on basically everything, alliance/guild missions, achievements, tasks, etc.

Generally, it's a generous game for currency. Not getting spooked by Lutzow and Acheron during limited banners is the hard part when it comes to gacha.

>>33739490
Not entirely sure.
Story seems to potentially semi follow the main plot though the setup might allow for variance.
From what little I can glean it seems to have standard fare combat.
Will let you know if there's any neat gimmick thrown in since I'll likely play it regardless as I'm a sucker for the series.
Come to think of it Re Zero Lost Memories also has pretty standard gameplay though it has a cool branching system in the story mode that let you explore a bunch of what ifs.
For example, you can manage to get Ram killed in the mansion instead of Rem or get Subaru fired from his position as butler.

I am fairly new to this DMM system though so I'm a bit confused why the thing says TOUCH.
Supposedly I can't find this on mobile anywhere so not sure why the browser game would use such language.

This doesn't feel the same.
But won't have to worry about the escalator getting to the top while I'm away.

>>33741114
>I'm a sucker for the series.
Me too I hope it doesn't take a long time for S3 since arc 5 is my favorite I want to see Subarus speech and his close moments with Wilhelm animated
