Poll of the Day > New pokemon masters gacha game is trash dont bother

(+) Yeah! (+)

paid and free gem split with the launch promotion being paid only and free gem pulls not having any 10 pull bonus

they dont even give you enough gems for a ten pull after the first chapter, people are rerolling for 4 single rolls, its sad to see.

worst part is the content is kinda cool but this is looking hella not f2p friendly, AND today they just increased the resources required to evolve pokemon an outrageous amount

fucking laaaaame
---

thanks. saved me the download.

---

reportedly doing all the story content available only gives you just over 3000 gems, only enough for 1 10 roll lmaoooooo
---

The trailers looked cool but yeah, I think I'm gonna pass on this one.
---

Wasn't going to bother anyway
---

man i really wanted to like it

Nintendo is banking hard that people will just do anything for pokemon, but uh, it's not looking too hot anymore.
---

My roommate was showing me the trailers for it. Sucks thats its not any good...
---

The only way I'd ever play another gacha game, is if they're close to as generous as Granblue Fantasy is and it was a franchise I already cared about.
---

Umm... is there a gacha game that isn't trash? cuz i kinda like game gambling
---

Of course it's trash. It's a phone game.

Dragalia Lost is pretty good... And havent spent any money on it. It really gives you enough stuff to do a lot of draws...

this one is pretty bad even by gatcha standards, being super stingy with the gems on LAUNCH DAY which if youve ever played a gacha at launch is when they try to get you into the game with good deals but this is pitiful, they absolutely refuse to give you a decent amount of rolls unless you are paying money

@TheSlinja yo have you played dx2? thoughts? >.>
---

I did play dx2, it seemed fun but honestly the characters didnt grip me and the gameplay just made me want to replay smt4a and I eventually dropped it :v

honestly I think the idea of not being able to (or getting diminishing returns from) playing a smt game for like 30 hours straight turns me off
I devour smt, gacha structure doesnt feel great for that

Actually I found a couple full on RPGs for free on the Google Play store that don't shove ads down your throat every other second. There are some ads, but you usually are agreeing to get something for them. The only ads that kind annoy me are the saving at the inn ones because they happen every other time you do. But unless your cloud saving you don't have to save that way, there's a local save thing right in your menu.

Plus a farming game that's not too stingy, I just got bored with it because it forces you to stay up to 10 pm. That's... excessive. I don't tend to do that in Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons games unless I really have a huge farm going. There's not enough space to make a farm that huge, and fishing sucks. It's not that it's a bad game, but that forced to stay up late just... Why?

Phone games can be good. There's just a lot more bad ones.

watched one preview of it and could tell what it was gonna be.
---

There are some good phone games. I dont say all are bad just because you play on your phone. Especially these days...

f2p is by definition not f2p friendly

Nintendo keeps saying one thing about mobile games and then the games do the exact opposite.

See you say that, but there are hundreds of idiots defending both Master (It's not as bad as other Gacha games! This is probably your first Gacha, right?) and S&S (Graphics don't matter!)

People also defended Nintendo not selling their N3DS at the time with a power cord, it's scary what fanboism does to people
