Where is everybody

>>35711570
Playing that game with the horse anime girls.

>>35711658
But Sakura Kakumei is dead....

>>35711570
We moved to the mobile games board bro

>>35711658
wait , i thought we were playing the game where horse fuck anime girls ?
that's why chat was so dead.

>>35712363
How are we supposed to discuss dying games now

GCG should just make everything in the shop free now.

>>35713370
But you guys are already receiving a free 10 roll every day, that is pretty much the only thing of value left in the server.

Giving more free shit is only going to kill the option to data transfer and what is left of hype for global.

>>35713585
99% of the Japanese playerbase wouldn't transfer to Global, most likely don't even know it exists.

>>35713598
To be fair no one knows if global is even going to actually happen. I'm pretty sure that everyone handling it is a fucking retard.

What is the next game to die?

>>35714817
F/GO.

Does Sakura Kakumei have the quickest death of any mega-shilled mobage? They even went through the effort of making an ONA for it, not to mention how much Sega and others promoted it. All that effort for a game that didn't even last a year, and barely got over seven months.

You want to see dead? Look at Punishing Gray Raven. It's absolutely fucking disgusting how they're making a general in /vmg/ even though it has the no generals allowed rule (that mods apparently don't give a shit about) because they're asshurt that people are telling the global players about all the drama the game has, how the president of the company is a major dickhead and how the game absolutely goes to shit.

Feels like Kurogame hired real unironic chinese shills to advertise the game because these people act like you insulted their mother if you bring up any CN drama, problems or shitstorms then they proceed to blame everything on mihoyo out of nowhere even if no one mentioned honkai/genshin like they have the company living rent free inside their heads. Same people constantly crying about the rampant mihoyo shills and shitposters turn around and go shill this shit in every /vg/ general with blatant advertising that never gets deleted because again, the mods apparently don't give a shit that someone is going around advertising the new game to everyone.

>>35720392
Based dramaGOD

>>35720392
Sounds like you are buttmad. PGR is a great game.

Caring about game drama is one thing, caring about shitposters bringing it up is even more pathetic. Resign yourself.

>>35714851
I've seen 2019-2020 era literal-who turn-based autobattlers with 0 advertisement last longer. They really must've dumped their whole budget into promotion.

>>35720392
>talks about how other people are asshurt
>hits you with a wall of text on a general that has nothing to do with PGR
Maybe look in the mirror for once you seething faggot

>>35721846
Clearly he has been hired by Mihoyo to shit on PGR

>>35720392
They are destined to fail in the Uma world

>>35721979
No one cares for horsekek moneylaunderingsume

>>35721820
I'm still shocked Kakumei was killed off so quickly.

>>35723320
They probably expected it to make them a bank like FGO since they went all the way to hire everyone favorite studio DW, and when the monthly reports came in they had a mass panic attack and decided to kill it off before they lose even more money on the sinking ship.

>>35720392
/vmg/ is filled with generals. They just aren't labeled as generals.

if it has the same taste as coca 0 the girls deserves punishment

>>35726023
I'm still surprised how this is not kill yet, when the devs actively abandoned it and they are only putting out skins and such now, as far as I understand it.

>>35728428
Because CN is probably pulling enough profit to keep JP alive I assume it doesn't cost much to carry JP also the previous event was a new story so there's that unfortunately they followed it up with a rehash of the previous summer event

They need one first before they can fuck up.

Don't you have iphones? What are you, poor?

Can you nigger just take your shit to /vg/ and /vmg/? This isn't the PGR thread

>>35754394
Are they burying it here too?

>>35748544
Thanks to PGR i finally started playing Honkai again

I can’t believe Uma killed PGR global

>>35755067
This but unironically. It's evident that Uma butchered the JP server of PGR and they lost so much money on that Kuro was forced to release Global early and go all in on making it a cash grab to regain their lost profits from JP. All of this is literally Uma's fault.

If any game has a sales rank above 100, that's decent right and isn't in danger of closing down anytime soon?

>>35755651
You can go a lot lower than 100 and still be fine

>>35756292
So Pokemas should be safe for the foreseeable future?

>>35756766
It usually depends on the company. Sevens Story is still alive somehow despite it's mostly not even in top 1000.

How much longer do you think before EoS?
Seems they have another story chapter ready and releasing another VR karaoke song for Sakurako, but they skipped all the sought-after summer swimsuit sets this year and stopped adding to their various lewd powercreep semilimited sets.

>>35736536
>made the entire thing insanely grindy
The only grindy thing is the stupid ascension material grind. I don't even know what to call the area but I've long stopped bothering. Tower doesn't take long if you're not being an autist or have the latest powercreep.

>>35767746
As an Idolychad Im glad the game is doing well

>>35767947
The game operated for not even one week in June

>>35767746
That's not too bad so far for how generous the game is with 5* tickets and jewels. The last gacha unit was a perm so it should see a decent boost when the gacha changes later today.

>Quiz RPG main story is scheduled to end next month
I wonder what's Kusopl next plan for it. A new story arc or EoS?

Uma killed another game...

>>35770846
Don’t give umas credit for DW’s sheet incompetence.

Can't wait for the uma killer

>>35771600
It's called Genshin Impact

I guess this image from GCG global's twitter confirms that the global version will have the same level of censorship as the chink version.

>>35772768
Damn. I guess a censorship switch would be improbable at this rate since they're promoting the censored version this early.

>>35772768
>>35772825
unplayable

>>35772768
Is this why they are erasing JP from history?
So that global players have nothing to compare to or whine about?

>>35772768
Hard to say. They are using the old chink assets of the game. I remember the event in CBT had a censored image of Lida but the card itself was uncensored.

Bilibili is in charge of the version so you should brace yourself for their incoming shenanigans.

>>35770846
No one cares for flopshit horsume. And that game was destined to fail since they went for the retarded mecha musume aesthetic.

are they expecting global to pull a miracle or something. even weirder is this would be bilibili's first global game.

They didn't even get to release the planned Index collab they announced during the first anniversary.

>>35779899
>Kill JP version so that hey don't have to make separate uncensored assets for JP in the future updates.
>Release global version with the same CN assets where JP players can move to.
They're just streamlining their operations and reducing the cost of making the uncensored shit just for Japan anon.

>>35780250
Good, index and railgun are shit.

>>35780315
My exact same thoughts. I'd rather keep GCG being the niche kusoge that it already is rather than collab with some shitty anime.

>>35780511
Well it's dead so you got your wish

>>35780264
was there a tldr on how marvelous screw up the JP version?
i only know of CN has a bad launch, emergency maint, which include some accounts being lost, then there's the removal of the touch features and censorship.

Not too long before Compass celebrates a nice 5 years of being alive and well, unlike certain other games. Shame that nobody else plays it and I'm only updating myself

Anyway, Taka's Square has received a temporary makeover which will be available until the 31st August.
A special event is currently taking place where victories in ranked matches will net you a random amount of BM (mostly between 10 and 55, but with a very very rare chance of 2525). This applies between 07:00 ~ 09:00, 11:00~13:00 and 17:00~21:00 (all JST) and will run until the total pool of 100,000,000BM is used up.
Blanche and Noire have both had their base model and colour variations updated to the shiny new high quality versions.

There will also be a short news update at the end of the tournament stream this Sunday.

Isn't PS the console with all of the Japanese anime games that the Genshin community likes? Why didn't they choose one of those? Very weird how they'd go with a choice that'd only be known in the west. Wonder how their CN and JP audiences are reacting to this.

That was the Vita era anon. Now it's the Switch that has the better version of anime games because of the "censorship" that PS supposedly started to implement.

>>35808666
>supposedly
This is an important word since that's nonsense.

>>35809335
To be fair anon. There are some kusoge that has a different version for the Switch and PS4 where the Switch version is uncensored and the PS4 version is censored.

>>35809601
I'm not that anon but isn't that issue overblown by a bunch of fucking /pol/ retards trying to push an agenda? It's always the same few examples and I could name more mobage that got censored in Japan or the West due to China's influence and devs being lazy/cheap and not wanting to make 2 different versions.

>>35797041
I would rather have a honkers collab (though it'd probably be Kiana who I don't care about) but this just felt so out of place due to the quality of the art in comparison to the original characters they dumped on the same day. I also struggle to picture Aloy as anything other than fat.
I don't really care too much though, I'll just claim her and never use her.

>>35815001
>/pol/ retards trying to push an agenda
What the fuck are talking about? Snoy has already gone and said they'll happily censor anything that
>Inhibits the growth of young people
a.k.a anything we don't like for example anime tits or ass meanwhile shit like a straight up sex scene in TLOU 2 gets an Ok pass because it's a big studio. Small studios can't defend themselves so they either bend the knee or go somewhere else if you can't see something nefarious is going on then there's no helping.

>>35815254
I'm talking about people looking to blame it on SJWs and minorities in the West, ignoring that a lot of the recent censorship is also related to China rescinding their 15 year console ban in 2015. Now companies want to push into that market and we're seeing Sony also starting to release their games on PC to cater to the Chinese market where it's far and away the most popular way to play games thanks to that aforementioned console ban making it the only game in town for years.

That being said, it's not like the FF8 Remaster or Atelier Ryza 2 aren't also censored on other platforms either and we've also seen Nintendo enact censorship on some of their Switch games too(Xenoblade 2's outfits and Animal Crossing's over the top political correctness removing things like Merry Christmas as 2 examples). A lot of the stuff that gets removed like touching systems are the same things being removed from Chinese mobage so it's quite obvious what's going on and while you can rightfully blame the Western offices for opting to release the censored versions meant for China, it's the exact same thing we're seeing in the mobile game space right now so singling out Sony here is retarded and shows a clear lack of insight. Looking at a list of what's been censored, there are a few genuinely upsetting ones like Catherine and Senran Kagura but most of the games on it are VNs which have been getting censored on their console releases literally forever so forgive me if I think that anyone who makes that complaint about Sony is a newfag with no idea what they're talking about or pushing an agenda.

Did PGR JP remove its region lock since global release?
Haven't used VPN since the Rosetta update.

I haven't visited this general since Honkai went JP and you guys were on /vg/. Sorry in advance for the blog.

Is tenka the game with the 2d beatem up gameplay and sword girls? I think I stayed up till 7am rerolling for that girl in the white swimsuit-like during the first event sad to see it gone now. Alternative Girls used to be THE game for me I dumped 300 bucks into it and it's still the only gacha I ever paid up for, fucking Ren. Can't go back to it now though. I came here to check what games are being played and fucking PTD?? Project Tokyo Dolls is alive somehow still after all the "will close NOW" posts constantly? Should I just pick it up and start playing it like I always should have apparently, or is it one of those games where everything was time gated and it's not worth getting into now?

>>35828096
Haven't played it in about 2-3 weeks but when I last did I still needed. I'll have to try it out later.

>>35828096
Seems like it I still remember using one for Grand Blue so it's a welcome addition.
>>35828105
Yeah Tenka was the sword girl game and it's a sad sight so see it go down after clinging to 4 years of life but there might be some hope during the last Livestream. As for PTD I can't help you there I assume it's like other old games where

I don't get how watching a RNG cutscene of girls racing over and over again is fun

>>35835153
It's the RNG raising I'm guessing rather than the actual races.

gameplay sucks in literally every mobage, I don't see how this can be a reason to dislike one over another. the only thing that differentiates them is the characters and writing

>>35835458
>gameplay sucks in literally every mobage
Ahem
AL , GF , HI3 and most of their copies

>>35835607
I played AL, and it was fun for the first few days, until you realize that basically every stage plays exactly the same and the "gameplay" ends up consisting entirely of putting it on auto and browing 4chan while the game plays itself

>>35835897
you're right i forgot Bandori , how could i

>>35835843
good luck using auto on the later stages , even if you run heavy ships with "tank build" or fulll evasion build you will never get to complete a stage on full auto , or even a battle in some cases

>>35835928
So at some point you're actually forced to spend hours of your life playing the levels that are all functionally identical to every other level in the game thousands of times in order to grind out trinkets? Wow, I shouldn't have quit a few months after JP launch like I did. Seriously, playing these games for the "gameplay" is like watching JAV for the intricate storylines.

>>35835458
No it doesn't Auto RNG "gameplay" where you have no input and hope you do good is the ultimate bottom tier even fucking turn based is better

>>35835607
Chink games are the absolute bottom of the barrel gameplay wise. They don't understand that nobody wants to actually play these games regularly.

>>35835916
Bandori is jank compared to T7S and ProSeka though.

Why are you not playing Puzzles and Dragons, anon?

>>35836675
Yet Genshin Impact is the most popular game in the world. Cope.

>>35837550
Popularity is not a correlation to quality, retard. Rather it's the opposite because the bottom of the pyramid has infinitely more people than the top.

>>35837550
You mean a ripoff of a japanese game? The only thing the chinks did was to add a gacha to cater to the western audience.

Further proof that popularity and good sales worldwide doesn't automatically make a good game.

>>35838168
Copying other games is what popular mobage are all about. Every Cygames title since maybe RoB is them directly ripping off another game and trying to make it better. Genshin at the very least removes some of the major complaints from BotW so I don't see the issue.

>>35838168
>add a gacha to cater to the western audience
...what? Gacha is more reviled in the Western marketplace than anywhere else. It's nips who love it and expect it as a given in every mobile game. if anything catering to the Western audience would mean REMOVING the gacha

>>35838168
>add a gacha to cater to the west

FUcking kill yourself retard

>>35841302
>>35841299
>West hates gacha

>Makes CN and JP games look like pocket change
When will the West stop pretending to be above the cancer and accept they are the cancer?

>>35841568
Candy Crush is not gacha, anon... Are you an ESL who thinks gacha and mobage are synonymous?

>>35841568
Nigger
shit that's popular in the west like candy crush or those village building kusoge are not gacha
the high revenue is also a result of those games being insanely popular
if 10% of players spend 5 bucks a month average on one of those games and those games have 10 million active players then that's fucking 5 million dollars a month and that's not even including any whales or retarded kids that will pay 100 dollars so they don't have to wait a week for their stone quarry to level up

>>35837082
Because I don't like puzzles or dragons.

A new screen translator is available from Qooapp. It uses a similar setup to Tap to Translate to quickly translate whatever is on the screen at the touch of a few buttons.

It's OCR handling is pretty good compared to other screen translators. However, if you aren't already using a patched version of Tap to Translate or Screen Translate, than the QooApp version will run you about $2~3 a month

>>35842891
I forgot to mention, during trial mode, you get 10 free translations per day, but you can still talk to your maid/butler. but they only have a few voice lines.

Compass has updated today and brings some new things along with a number of hero buffs and nerfs.
First of all, August's season will be themed around Nidhogg - no dates yet.
The Irregular costume event has returned - this time it's for Luciano and Blanche. Simply play with/against someone who has the skin equipped and you will unlock it after the match has finished. No specific date but it should last for a few weeks.
The event where BM is given after a ranked victory is still going and is at roughly 43 million BM left.
