I haven't played it in a year, but I'd say a good portion of the early-mid game is pretty phenomenal. Part 1 story kinda sucks but the writing picks up pretty quick from Part 1 sub story and going to Part 2. But man the late-post game farming is literally cancer, and people get so addicted to the endless grind. The late meta is also super dependent on the nearly impossible to pull ML 5*s.

But yeah rerolls being hard to do is purely out of greed. They want to make it hard to get the absolute shit for the first few dozens of pulls so that you have incentive to spend earlier than not

He ran out of topics like 2+ years ago. The onus was on him to innovate, but he was clearly not as talented as he thought he was

Urgh on one hand she's a part of the KKK. On the other hand, she's supposedly a superhot ninja

That cut off word "hang" certainly doesn't help

Holy balls, the Hiiro event in AS finally expired, leading to a massive conversion on the leftover petals... which gives me a whopping 1.3M gold lmao

But I saw on reddit of ppl having like freaking near 3M gold... That has to be somebody buying stam refresher pack or using gems on it, cuz I rarely ever let my stam overflow, which is easy to do in the game due to the whole Colossus stam generation working aside your regular stam

Feels so good to not worry about gold for once. That shit runs dry real quick when you're equipment lvling or ascending.

Speaking of, I have 10 A3 units now >.>. I'm hoping the event scaling stages are reasonable but difficult

I've seen that shit before. There was a vid on the announcement of Pokemon Unite that pretty much had like all negative comments and comments that had more likes than the vid had dislikes lmao. But the thing was that the dislikes were much higher, but at one point, it was reduced to like 1/10 the number, and my own dislike became un-disliked for some reason.

Shit's shady as fuck.

Anyways, I think people just gotta accept Diablo is long dead. If they don't buy D4, they won't see any more of their childhood crumbling. D2 was my life back in the days, and I've accepted that it's fully gone

People underestimate the amount of hotties in chess because of TV once again misrepresenting something.

Honestly recently Hikaru have said something about how that's how it was throughout history. It's definitely not the case in the modern days compared to before

I mean it's delicious for a reason. It's ultra greasy and has like twice the calories of the typical fast food burgers lol. I dunno about overpriced though. I guess my Five Guys haven't jacked up the price.

If you got Lynn then I think Scintilla might also be worth going for, who has a banner atm. I've heard mixed things about her, but in general, a single element team is just better. Also fire does have 2*s that are pretty great like Akatsuki

God fucking dammit, why do they put the change captain button so close to the auto button in Alchemy Stars? I hate accidentally putting the braindead AI in charge, even if it's just for one move, since it's gonna waste a skill <_<

Lul I guess I can see that being a potential problem on a phone. Honestly the game is just way more comfortable on an emu. They really need to upgrade the AI a bit though. They've fixed like major problems like AIs getting stuck on a single tile or not using teleport skills on some characters, but the overall logic can definitely use a bit of work. I still don't understand why it doesn't go for like free aurora times sometimes

Speaking of emus, I upgraded to Bluestacks 5 like yesterday cuz I heard the performance was significantly better for AS. Holy shit, it's not even comparable. No more random crashes when returning to the main screen, and the game runs like hot butter. It runs so cleanly, I felt like I was actually better at the game

Da fuq. It says you can choose to activate it though :<



It says it can be saved for future use :<

Yeah some of the descriptions are pretty shit. You can't activate it but you can save it for later by simply just not letting Eicy be within chain skill activation. Though usually you just want to activate it ASAP. It just means that it won't run out if you miss the timing on it

Hey how does Eicys Hollow form work? It says you can change after 3 turns, but on the third turn I dont see an option to activate it; only her active skill. Does she have to be captain or something?

It activates automatically. You see that like edged diamond like icon on the bottom right corner of the portrait? It turns white when it's active, and it goes black once used. It will only go away if Eicy lands a chain skill, and you'll get a heal off depending on how many units you actually do damage to. I think it doesn't heal when the damage gets blocked for whatever reason. Pretty small heal, but it's significant because meta Fire teams almost never run a healer and just uses the small passive heals from Eicy and Victoria.

Also the diamond icon works similarly for nearly every character with a similar passive. Generally it means the activation is automatic

GT story is worth the occasional struggle. I don't think there's a competition for how good it is overall in the gacha market. But it is very lengthy, so it's generally recommended you do a bit by bit upon release so you don't get overwhelmed. I think the biggest problem for me is that I'm not always in the mood

Also skin for Eicy. True Order definitely has the best girls. Great designs on the guys too

Honestly, I can't really remember the last time where a gacha with a modest population is basically universally happy about a game. It doesn't insult your intelligence, properly rewards minnows, has systems that reward dupes but not so excessively that you need them for any of the content, really. There are insanely powerful 4*s that don't need nearly as much luck or investment etc.

It's also a good sign when the subreddit is more gameplay discussion than fan arts.

Also the events are super high quality, the story was quite quaint with very likeable characters. The devs are also really responsive with good updates to improve playing experience.

There are just a lot to like about the game. If you don't want to be disappointed and play a good RPG, highly recommend this. The only tip is that if you do reroll, make sure to prioritize converter 6*s that have 2 turn cooldown preemptive. Any element will do because they're all usable and can beat the same level of content atm.

Noice. Little Fade is my favorite champion by far as well. I've literally never lost a run with her yet and am a bit afraid I will lose a random run because of a super incompatible sub class or something lol

My 2nd favorite is the Imp Queen. Super fun style. My friend kept telling me she sucked ass, then I kept conditioning him to eventually get good at her, and now it's his best champion.

I'm just hoping Beth gets some pretty interesting relevance later on. Hopefully her lul post-depression phase has a pay-off.

Did not finish W12 yet, but yeah pretty exciting

Lol nice assumptions, but I first started to play the game like 6 months ago and really enjoyed the overall experience. I mean not a whole lot of end game stuff is locked behind anything. I dunno when you played the game, but sure before you get a spaceship, the range of stuff you can do is a bit limited, but that's just how video games work lol. After you get a spaceship, literally like what can't you actually do? You can activate nearly every quest as long as you know how to, and the Nexus makes it so you can automate for infinite money like pretty much within your first 3-4 hours of playing.

Just get your head out of the ass and accept that the current product is actually genuinely good. Is it for everybody? Probably not. But that statement for anything is pretty pointless and obvious, yet you don't seem to realize it. Maybe you just don't like this type of game in general

Early grind isn't even that bad nowadays lul. You can get to later game stuff pretty early and don't even really have to do the main storyline, which is honestly more or less tutorial. The Anomaly basically made it so that you can get the later elements without having to go through the story, which skips like 90% of the doldrum

Basically usually if you were bothered by something earlier in the game, by this point, it's probably been fixed with some additional content.

Man, making an activated cadmium farm and using infinite money to buy out this insane looking mothership was one of the most satisfying thing ever. Had to traverse quite a few galaxies to reroll for the one I liked the best.

Forest Spire F43 conquered now too, with no A3s on the team to boot. Uriah was a big MVP, and Hiiro is strong, Areia obviously the best big monster DPS in Forest still, though Hiiro is pretty close. She makes up for it in a pretty bitchin' active though. That active is so powerful

Now only Lightning F43 to clear and I'll never have to deal with this shit boss ever again until they appear in the story or on another Spire floor. Not too hopeful about Lightning though... Unless I pull Gronru or Irridon in the near future

Upcoming summer costumes for AS. Vice lookin' cute as hell as always. Her usually thick clothes definitely make you unaware as to her pretty sick assets, and her tail is beeg too

I'm hoping they are fairly easy to obtain. They already teased Carleen's so I know for a fact I'm getting that one, and hopefully I'm able to afford Vice's too
