thread for ants
genshin rules, honkai sisters crying in the corner
is it true that the more you win the less you get
Pretty much yea, idk why morons celebrate this shit when it just means the devs will keep being the greedy asses they've been for 3 years now.
Meanwhile in HSR they constantly get shit for free.
shitshmael killed limbus
So what can other gachas learn from the failure of Honkai: Star Rail?
>failure
i dont play star rail but i dont really see getting 20 fricking millions as a failure
fatebros... we are still relevant even with the shitty events and new servants.
play Another Eden
Genshin won
>take-two lost more than 1 billion
Serves them right, I hate the 2K launcher that was forced on my games
You know they'll make all of it back and 5x more when GTA6 releases, right?
At least it's under R* brand and not 2K. There's still a faint hope that maybe they'll close down 2K.
>Embracer group having profits
LOL yeah sure. Isnt false accounting a crime over there?
How in the frick did Take-Two lose $1 billion?
They own NBA and GTA. Gearbox is garbage but their publishing side has made good games.
Diablo 4 sisters, our response? Why is nobody buying Diablo Immortal’s $200 gacha skins or Diablo 4’s $60 mount bundles? Should they have turned legendary gems into waifus to compete?
isn't Diablo Immortal doing just fine?
its Diablo 4 that is in the shit right now with shitty end content and new dlc
ruanmeibros i dont feel so good
Artery Gear chads, our response?
girls will still flirt with you even if you're a literal autist. they won't date you though
The flirting is a test. I guess you failed.
hoyogays keep winning
brown dust 2 won
FAT b***h
PLAY BD2
Isnt this the cuck game?
no why would you think that
because it is
why are you pretending it isnt?
I heard that all the characters have partners and such already and I dont like the idea of looking at other peeps partners like that.
You have to be a sjw-like snowflake or a trolling autist like the bikini-schizo to be cucked by a dumb jrpg with ships
I cant be cucked by that no but i dont like the idea of cucking anyone fake or real either. it just dont sit right with me.
(you)
grow up
Cucklet
players want fat milfs
cuck game
I thought Brown dust 2 was a pure waifu coom game but half of the cast is males some even more gay then genshin twinks
ew gay. Shan’t be playing
behold Brown Dust 2 a waifu game
you guys don't selfinserts as gray to frick all the cuties?
i dont like getting wiener blocked by some homosexual while trying to pull for my waifu besides he is the cliche pervy guy that all the woman ignore
butt game 2!
How the frick is Honker SR still at 2nd ? The game is boring as frick for a 4 homie in a row game
Explain Jujutsu Kaisen and Black Clover's success without "money laundering".
Fujos.
What the frick happened with Black Clover? What with that boost?
It's not really a "boost" the game launched November 30th so it's more accurate to say it's the launch month revenue.
Is Cuckolds and Dragons worth starting?
Limbros...
This is actually suprisingly good considering no event IDs...
>Relatively Stable
>No Steam numbers
Boom?
Boom.
Easy Navia W
I didn't like Black Cover.
I might just burned out on row homie games.
>2024 still playing genshin
They're able to easily coast on normalgay women at this point
males banners are all bombs
So why are they so high up?
because they started releasing female characters again
Literally one year of no limited 5* females, now the pussy is flowing again. Absolutely moronic and suicidal move but I guess it was done to not cannibalize the budding HSR sales
at least that year gave us kirara
Its the only gacha I play, tried Tower of Fantasy for a couple weeks but it was trash.
I did not wasted a single penny on Genshin since almost two years ago, F2P is more enjoyable than obsessing about meta units in a game without challenge
>uhhh you have to jump to the nearest fotm
Explain this thinking
Why quit something I like because it isn't new?
>if you're not playing Genshin, that means you're playing some FOTM!!!!
Why are Genshingays so insecure?
I didn't mean that
The point of that post is that it's "weird" to play a game 3 years after it's launch, which i dont understand
zoomers and morons that spent way too much on the game to stop now, sunk cost fallacy in action
There are no good alternatives
Genshin won
1999 bros...
That list doesn't have Jessica right?
cute
Well the game was entirely fake interest due to the devs paying content creators to do videos on the game, and then blacklist them if they wanted to follow ftc guidelines and disclose that the video was a paid ad.
Brown Dusters, we've won!
Such a scummy market not even China wants it alive.
Tower of Shit EOS soon hahah
God i hope so.
Frick every player that still defend the shit in the game, and still whales in the game.
Matchmaking is literally dead, and powercreep gaps are too big at this point, you are forced to use new weapon as main weapon
Yep, we're so fricking back
that looks absolutely awful
So do a lot of women irl.
HSRbros stay comfy
>collab with garbage coes nothing
Get fricked azur lane.
Get fricked.
>Dokkan still alive and kicking
Mad respect, I quit it like 2 years ago but I'm glad it's still pulling in decent numbers. Must be in its 9th year or so
Nikkers staying comfy as always
>Blue archive
THE FGO KILLER THEY SAID
GirlsFrontlinebros... It’s over…
Isnt the game basically in maintenance mode since 2 is getting released soon?
The devs are more or less wrapping up the story this year.
why is this thread so slow? less than 1 post per minute
People are getting smarter about gacha shit.
It's january 1st you should be hungover or sleeping
octopath will go back up once the big tiddie african lady banner goes up.
>Limbus still limping along barely keeping its head above water
>released this year
kek, can't wait for the tears when DevSisters pulls the plug.
Small indie dev, EoS never ever and I hate it
Theres like 20 people working on it I don't think it'll get shut down any time soon.
Hopefully soon so PM knows to never try that shit again
mindbroken
>Nikke's revenue doesn't even include PC revenue
What a scary final boss of what gacha games used to be, the final harbinger of what once was before the advent of MiHoYoslop and open world sloppa.
>doesn't even include PC revenue
Wouldn't hoyoverse games also not include their PC and playstation revenue?
pretty sure everyone gave up on matching genshin anon
They already do, shit game dropped like a rock.
Genshin doesn't include PC, Playstation, China, Cloud. Nikke isn't even available on 3 of those.
Genshin CN IOS revenue is usually about the same as global (what the sensortower chart shows) and CN Android is around 2-3x CN ISO. No idea about PS and Cloud.
>BD2 literally sold its soul to coomers to... double its income from $0.6m to $1.3m while still fundamentally being an anti-self-insert game at its core
ntrchads stay winning
no way they would ever bring over waifugays after all that
its just not happening, that bridge was burned
>while still fundamentally being an anti-self-insert game at its core
Why, what happened?
calling it a cuck game is very much not a meme
BD2 is aimed at ntr fetishists asiatics and thirdies
>sold its soul to coomers
this was the first banner of this game, it's coomer from the start
it's has a typical jrpg story, not a gacha story
so there is a team of MCs, pairings, some side characters do have partners too, game's mascot has a dad, etc
usual no-brainer png collector gets confused, not understanding why the devs added sexy girls if they're not for (you)
what's the point of rolling for sexy girls if they're not for (You) then, moron
to have a sexy animation in the menu
cuckbrains are a strange breed
>usual no-brainer png collector gets confused seeing a jrpg
Yes, we get confused when people like you would pay for a girls that aren't mean for >you
It like paying a twitchthot for her vacation their bf or husband.
>a girls
>aren't mean
>It like paying
>her vacation their bf
You ok, ESL monkey?
Literally moronic.
Play more games, gachaslop liquefies your brain.
why do you think people cant play both
Because people who played enough JRPGs can't have the opinion this dumb.
i can assure you, you're mistaken
maybe you just have limited understanding?
>jumps and shakes in his boots when sees a pairing in his party-builder JRPG
>"y-you're wrong! not me!"
I respect women characters that have their own pairing if they don't wiggle their asses and ask you to gamble your entire wallet to play their characters just like a normal non-gachoid rpg.
If you ask your players to waste their money on a gambling scenario just to play as them then you better make them pander to your players.
you can get every character for free while playing
why bother
how can investors see this and think "yes, this is a healthy market I should totally invest money in it"
To be fair, 80% of gacha games failing is purely because of Square Enix incompetence.
You don't play Genshin? What are you, gay?
I don't play games where other characters have romantic relationships with my self-insert character sitting in the cuck chair, sorry.
I don't play Genshin because I'm not a gaylord like you, idiot.
way too much text.
No, I just have better taste.
Never played Artery Gear but I really like its mecha musume aesthetic which has become very niche, sad to see it doing so bad every month
Give me a quick rundown on brown dust 2. I don't care if it has ntr or its grindy I just want to know what it looks like while playing. Will I be staring at sexo designs or shtity chibi's for 90% of the playtime?
If you keep skill cutscenes on, the former, if you off it the latter.
BD2 kings stay winning
Arknightbros.....surely Endfield will save us??
>grindknights
>Yostar hemorrhaging money hard after fricking up the cash cow that was Arknights to the point where their long-time bote game is more stable
Holy grim
Huh? I thought AK makes plenty of money. Fricking Chongyue, a m*le, sold plenty in Japan.
>You know what our next banner event needs? FURRY BARA MEN AND MORE AWFUL, INCONSISTENT WRITING
I know, right?
WHERE ARE MY FURRY WOMEN, YOSTAR!?
Only one we have is Waai Fu!
I havent played AK in awhile. How did Yostar frick up this time so hard?

Its so over
>makes as much money as Star Rail

Nah, still king.
not a king anymore, fatebro
we are still relevant tho
JP + Global combined
>31 million
>Across the entire board
>Against games only slightly lower in one region alone
The absolute state of Genshit
>Across the entire board
Genshin made 500m USD from Furina's banner alone. You see such a minority of the revenue from sensortower.
How does this game keep making so much money when the characters themselves aren't even that overtly attractive?
Weebs are a disease
Because you have security. You play some other gacha and you always have to worry if it'll shut down next month. Even low earners from miHoYo like GGZ and HI3 are still getting updates.
it's fun to play?
There was exposure to crumbs of gachapon mechanics for westerners through stuff like MapleStory, but it was orders of magnitude less popular than Genshin is.
Also it's funny how a ton of the cancer that plagues modern games comes from Valve, battle passes, crates, competitive AIDS.
I'm glad the "god of gamers gaben" phase is over
>I'm glad the "god of gamers gaben" phase is over
people still slurp up gaben
maybe they are too sunk cost in their steam "accounts"
if you want to play a well made huge open world action adventure anime game, Genshin is the only choice. There's no alternative.
carried by baizhu
you're welcome furinasisters
And yet the second that banner ended, it all dropped. So no, they are right.
no shit, it was a terrible banner only worth rolling for the 4*s. Ayato just got powercrept by Neuv and Cyno is the "most regretted" character ever in genshin
>Cyno is the "most regretted" character ever in genshin
What the frick ? I thought Dehya was the worst limited 5* ever exist so far. Cyno is worse than her ?
>Genshin made 500m USD
this is a lie since Genshin only does that much in a year
Genshin totall revenue for 2023 is about 600m
>When Genshin gets only new male characters and rerun it loses to HSR
>When Genshin gets new girls it beats HSR
but this month is the worst month for Genshin
even flops like Eula rerun did 33 million
Genshin better wake the frick up and make appealing anime girls again like Mona/Raiden/Ayaka. Navia is a good start, you'll probably see her banner earn crazy money.
They won't make skimpy clothed female anymore, anon. In fact, they won't have to since people are going to roll for a female character if she's attractive enough like Cappuccino and Cloud Retainer.
Nah, they need all the money for daddy Xi to buy weapons and ships to keep Uncle Sam at bay. There was an attempt to limit games for the young and to cut back on the payment models and they lost like 80 billion in market value overall in their industry overnight, then backtracked. Expect more sexy designs in the future, it's gonna be incremental though.
That doesn't explain the censorship though. That's just explain why semi banning video games is bad for economy. The money they're getting was from censored female characters and big daddy Xi won't lift the banned on sexy female characters.
>this is a lie since Genshin only does that much in a year
That's not true at all. The leaked miHoYo taxes from before SR had them making around $316M revenue per month. What you're saying would have $266m of that coming from HI3, GGZ, and ToT.
it showed Genshin did $4xx and $440 in 2021 and 2022 in china only. These are Genshin best years
2023 Genshin is worse in both China and globally especially Japan
>no pc
>no PS
>no china
are you pretending to be a moron?
Genshin is massively popular but its playerbase also mostly consists of underage cancer who can't afford to spend any money on it.
That's why Genshin despite being easily the most popular gacha game on the market only ends up with a very small lead compared to other way less popular titles.
Can someone explain the appeal of memento Mori ? It's an idle game and there's very little to do in it and almost no story.But it seems to be raking in the cash
people like seeing numbers go up
>Blue archive that low
It's really funny how the game that gets hogged with fanart and everyone and their mothers are tweeting is not even inside the top 10
>It's really funny how the game that gets hogged with fanart and everyone and their mothers are tweeting is not even inside the top 10
blue archive never pretended to be a top earner thoughbeit, there placements in the ranking were in the mid - high mid range.
/bag/got here. There are almost no limited characters. And at least to me it makes the whole thing very laid back. Also nobody gives a frick about PvP so there's barely any meta urge.
The Bluefes is coming and there's a big rateup, so I'll probably buy pakeji by then but right now, I'm sitting on two sparks so I'm chill.
thats a fricking lie lmao, theres lots of limited characters
I just don't get why anyone would actually spend money on blue archive, theres basically no gameplay or incentive to actually whale on characters
My friend whales on BA and he's 160cm tall (male)
Boys that short should be mandated to crossdress. They've failed as men so they might as well retry as women.
>thats a fricking lie lmao, theres lots of limited characters
no it's not? i only pull on limited banners and i'm constantly seething about there being nothing to pull because they keep making everything non-limited
Is that not following Magic Awakening? I have a hard time believing it made under at least 100k. It's a god damn Harry Potter game.
This game is flying completely under the radar and I don't get it. It's got a little of the trademark NetEase jank but it's not too bad. I hear that's a big issue "everyone hates Netease!", but explain Diablo Immortals numbers then.
What’s next for businesses? Surely there is something worse than gacha to come. Perhaps autogacha where you just open the app and it randomly does shit and you can pay money for it to go faster?
Idle gacha games are already a thing.
As in games that have afk modes like Nikke or worse? I played Nikke and the amount of menuing was dizzying. They might’ve kept me if I only had to do a 1/4th of it.
Those meme graphs don't include China, so hoyoslop is undercounted
They also don't include PC, which makes Genshin insanely undercounted
genshin and star rail are basically normalgay games now
I don't think any other gachas come even slightly close if you added together their income from all platforms
Genshin made asian-style gacha mechanics mainstream, the same way Valve made western-style lootboxes mainstream a decade and a half ago
I fricking hate Valve for that. I'll piss on Gaben's corpse for that sin.
its still just genshin in the mainstream though
I just can't see another gacha game actually becoming a household name in the west
>its still just genshin in the mainstream though
Mainly because nobody has tried making an actual high effort game with gacha mechanics to cash out
It's all GACHA GAMES not GAMES WITH GACHA, there's a stigma to PNG collectors/harem games/"Senpai" simulators that can't let other gacha games become popular in the west, or at least not enter the public sphere.
All of the derivative "Genshin killers" were also low effort
Mainstream IN THE WEST
Gachapon has existed for decades, "lootboxes" in western games were a watered down version of gacha mechanics.
Japan made it mainstream with FGO moron, that's why every single chink and nip was trying to become the next FGO and only genshin achieved it.
where's im@s? there was a content reduction notice recently too from its biggest game
the frick happen to arknights
People STILL play Genshin after how bad Sumeru was? lmao
Sumeru was bad for the secondary shitters that don't play the game
Which of your favorite ecelebs gifted you that opinion?
Genshin doesn't even have any ecelebs anymore, they've all moved on to other gambling slop.
irminsul was a bad plot device
the way nahida was handled nullified her whole character by literally retconning her back story
scaramouche in general
nothing really progressed in the whole overarching narrative
the characters were mid
Nahida was freed and ended the Akasha system, Scara got slapped so hard he actually grew slightly as a person. Nothing particularly wrong with those stories.
her whole deal was feeling inferior to her predecessor, they just dunked that whole thing in the trash
scara was only redeemed to apease the fujos, guy was irredimable and was turned into a dindu via literal retconning
the fact changing backstory is even a thing is already a shit premise to its core
sumeru is shit and genshin is trash
>grew
factory reset isn't a growth you underage inbred
He got his old personality back, but didn't return to his old homicidal ways. He's still a piece of shit, but at least he took a good look at his past from a different perspective and saw what he had done wrong and who had done him wrong. I honestly liked that part of Sumeru archon quest the best, I'm a sucker for stories about spiritual rebirth.
How convenient of that moron to have an easy, uninterrupted "introspection" on his old life when all of his fricking crimes are deleted and absolved him of every terrible shit that homosexual frickface haver ever done.
You really are like a chink. Forgiveness is a foreign word to you. Mind you he has Nahida to keep him in check in case he goes full moron again, so it's not unconditional forgiveness.
>forgiveness
if I smacked the heads of all the people I've wronged so hard to the point I made them completely forget about me, do you think that means I can consider myself being forgiven by them?
It's possible to harm people around you, then get away with it, and then start to feel bad about it afterwards. I've had that happen. All you can do at that point is to sort yourself out and try to live as a better person than you were before. The people around you may not trust you and you may not be able to apologize for the wrongs you've done, so it may be better to just frick off and travel to somewhere else to find new people and a new life. Kind of fits Wanderer since he's wandering too.
>The people around you may not trust you
Which is not a problem for the homosexual since no one remembers his treacheries and everyone in genshin world has their default state being a nice person
>it's ok to commit mass murder as long as you you feel bad and reflect after it!!! also everyone forgets it about it anyway lol
The kind of mental gymnastics shitters go through to justify shitty writing is hilarious.
>Forgiveness is a foreign word to you
Not everyone and everything deserves forgiveness you cuck, there's a line and a scumbag character like scara had clearly crossed it
>How convenient of that moron to have an easy, uninterrupted "introspection" on his old life when all of his fricking crimes are deleted and absolved him of every terrible shit that homosexual frickface haver ever done.
A woman wrote the questline. Now i hope you understand why and how.
How do we stop Mihoyo?
Mihoisraelite is gonna get fricked by Xi, all that prattling, and they still get cucked like all the rest.
Sounds like great news!
>/gig/ cried likes cucks
Of course
Sure sure, just like when China banned femboys and it killed Genshin.
At worst they have to let go of their first-time offers in gem bundles, and maybe add a few more characters available in the starglitter shop. Which is about time, they've had the same 4*s there since the first year.
>I-its no big deal!
lmao tell that to their investors
>tell that to their investors
Thet aren't a public company.
isnt mihoyo owned by tencent like the rest of companies in china?
no, it's private owned but shitposters don't know that
American education
They tried to go public but getting shamed and rejected by every company for trying to sell anime game as their passion project.
Now everyone tried to copy them.
No. If anything Mihoyo is Tencent's biggest rival.
Tencent came from Shenzhen city.
Netease, another big internet tech company, is from Hangzhou.
Shanghai is the biggest business central but they didn't have cyber industry front, so they invested in Mihoyo back when HI3 wasn't even a thing.
No. Tencent tried to buy them and miHoYo said no. This resulted in a never-ending smear campaign. For example, this AI image generator created by Tencent which purposly makes an image into BotW if it detects a Genshin character.
Does that even matter for a private company like Hoyo? The only ones that lost market value after the news are public ones like Tencent and NetEase.
more like tell that to their higher ups wanting to move to singapore, yeah that "whatever" money is worth more than they want people to believe
one of the world's greatest mysteries
you can't
its like wow or cod at this point, need to wait at least 2 decades
Here is a good first step. Get rid of popup offers/bundles. So many people see them, think of shitty 2012 mobile games, and close the app.
Try making a good game
>good game
You mean try having your game released in a one-in-a-million spot where you could capitalize on unassuming normies who got stuck in their homes with pretty characters and massive marketing legwork
they are already fricked, like all other bug made gacha
>right off the heals of their psychopath fans attacking anyone wanting to waifugay any character
couldn't have happened to a shittier fanbase
China almost did the other day. And they're still re overing from it.
Success breeds jealousy

dokkan went to shit after the 7th anni and never recovered from that. Game is borderline unplayable last time i checked.
we are so fricking back pridicky bros
you guys shit on hoyoslop but outside of them can gachas even be called games?
none of them even come close to a hundredth of genshins gameplay
They respect the player's time
you're a zoomer who got tricked by gaming industry for thinking le open world is the pinnacle of game design
genshin is nothing special but you are comparing it to other gachas which are 90% autobattlers or some puzzle shit
I love Genshin's open world and fricking hate elden ring compared to other soulshit and their tight worlds.
Am I an independent zoomer thinker now?
Worse, you also let your dick do the thinking
>and fricking hate elden ring compared to other soulshit and their tight worlds
Thank fricking God I'm not the only one. I crave a proper Dark Souls sequel.
Roll for Vitch.
Play her game.
I dropped GFL 1, PLEASE TELL ME GFL 2 IS GONNA BE GOOD
It was released in CN, not looking good.
What's bad
What's good
JP's recent devstream on youtube and Reverse Collapse page on steam is being raided by chink account (with obvious bot username), screaming don't play their games, it's NTR games, the dev is gigajew, etc. That's not mentioning the weeks long raiding on their CN pages.
If you want to believe chinese bots, it's bad.
If you don't want to believe them, it's good and they're probably bot team deployed by rival.
It's good. I like it.

Where does this data come from anyway
Is it verifiable like Famitsu is
>When Genshin gets only new male characters and rerun it loses to HSR
>When Genshin gets new girls it beats HSR
I hope Mihoyo learns from this
i dunno about that anon, HSR is on a waifu train also....
>I hope Mihoyo learns from this
they know, which is why they released nothing but males around the release of HSR to give it a chance to take off
They also made the mistake of releasing hsr during Genshin 3.6, which was one of THE best updates in the game, packed with content. No way was I going to try Star Rail while dealing with that. And seeing how autistic Honkaigays are (I genuinely thought most of them were shitposters trying to be divisive, but it turns out Honkaigays really ARE that awful), I have no interest in ever trying now.
They aren't even "honkaigays", they're just mindbroken and want Genshin to die by any reason possible
Ever hsr community revolves around Genshin, all the discussion about their updates and freebies to tempt the bleeding playerbase to return is about "I bet the genshitters are seething right now"
Insanity
why are you behaving as if there's no genshinroaches that keep bragging about their game to every single place, including their sister games?
Come on now
I play both games and notice this shit
HSR announces freebies and what becomes trending is "genshin would never"
They transcend rent free, they transcend chip on their shoulder, they have reached a level of parasocial seething never considered possible
All you're saying is that you're a selective homosexual who ignores one side of the shitposters and lay all the faults on the other one
Talking about other games in a miniscule part of Genshin discussion
Meanwhile HSR discussion is overwhelmingly dominated by trying to one up Genshit
That's the difference
left all the females in that game cuck him with the other males
right has a harem but it cost that game the mainstream appeal
HSR is also actually fun to play and is challenging. Genshin gameplay is braindead and the openworld get boring after the first hour and is a chore to explore
How is it cuckshit in Genshin when the females aren't interested in the MC?
Do people think every anime is cuckshit when it has romance between side characters?
It has a self-insert male character, and the girls (you)'re rolling for prefer any other male character instead of (you).
I play as a girl tho.
Females in anime didn't ask you to shell out your monthly salary to experience everything they have to offer
There is no romance in either of these fricking games. Self-insertgays and shipgays are living in another dimension, I swear.
Newest HSR leak shows that the game used to have dating sim elements for both March and Dan Heng.
homie, genshin got hang out since 1.4 and none of them was about romance or shit like that.
If you want self insert game play Blue Archive.
lol
Now post the quest logs.
lol
and this is after the shipping survey
>edited blush
the absolute state of genshin haters lmao
Your honor, may I present Exhibit B: Shipping AMV on Youtube.
No fricking way
Black person the leaks literally told that players could've invited both March and/or Dan to watch a romantic movie (or other movies with different genres)
No frick you! you moronic Black person, game is too much trying safe route, dating sim mean you actually confesed your shit to your romantic partner, not just hanging out between friends like in genshit.
I cut all my balls if mihoyo dare to create one, even one confesion scene in any future "hangout" that you Black person keep calling fake dating sim.
since you can't think other than two different ends of the horseshoe I'm not gonna entertain you anymore, here's your last (You)
>"HSR is also actually fun to pl--"
LOL Alt-tab simulator!!
>HSR is also actually fun to play and is challenging.
>genshin and star rail are creating an entire generation of non playing gamers
Honestly, based.
I will never understand how these people think others will "seethe" over free shit being given away en masse. That's a pretty good indicator that they can't retain players.
When you actively brag about something like that, you look like Baghdad Bob, telling everyone you're winning while shit is literally crumbling around you.
>getting free shit is bad actually I should be proud that the company fricks me over
FGO players are mindbroken beyond belief lmao, funniest part is that SR makes more money than FGO.

Fricking how? Game must be like 10 years old and at this point they cannot think of anything but making the number bigger again and releasing another moronic anime collab
>my pile of shit makes more money than your pile of shit!
jesus christ
cant tell which is worse between gachatards and eceleb threads
Only game I play on this list is Genshin. I tried Nikke and it was horrible - so much menu bullshit and cliche story, and then the gameplay was completely pointless. Especially since based on the player survey I got, most people only use autobattle. I got some sexy 5-star units too, but I didn't even care. One of them literally had her hand over her tit with her shirt pulled up. That's just trying way too hard to make players horny.
Installed Blue Archive, haven't tried it yet. My guess is it's also bad.
That's babby's first falseflag if i ever saw one. Probably some poltard on a quest to start gacha turf wars. The mention that he's a "/bag/ger is too on the nose.
The antihoyoschizo is very real thoughever
No debate there.
I remember the dumpster fire of the ZZZ general where every second post was "pointing out invading railkeks" and to "frick off back to /hsrg/"
He unironically won in making /hsrg/ unusable too
What the frick are you guys doing over there?
It's called /vg/, the board that doesn't discuss games
I don't get why there's a competition between mihoyo games when all the money goes in the same pockets. You can't save all the morons and it's better that they're an endangered species.
What is the Ideal gacha game for investors?
$31m is really low for Genshin probably the lowest revenue in a month so far. The game didn't recover from Sumeru is seems
Looks like Honeymoon is over for Star Rail I think this is the average revenue for that game from now on
Expected a higher drop for Nikke since their Christmas banner flopped in Japan but glad the game is getting fanart now, Lewdmilla is pure sex
Blue Archive revenue is way too low compared to how big that game is in Japan. Do players spend their money on doujins and merch instead of the game?
lolel
lol why did you quote me? This was indeed the lowest month for Genshin.
>random article paid by the ccp
lmao, why are you so proud of that? even if it is real, It's not like Genshin is a good game and deserves that success
Genshin, Star Rail, Nikke and anything with a PC version is misreported because the revenue charts are just Apple store and Google play.
so why do people make these threads? what conclusion can one accurately draw from these numbers?
So they can go shit on Genshin and Honkai for only being x total relying on people not realizing how severely undercounted the number is. For Genshin you can assume the actual real number is about three times as high as what is reported by sensor tower. At least.
>For Genshin you can assume the actual real number is about three times as high as what is reported by sensor tower. At least.
but it is not chink shill the majority of Genshin revenue is from mobile
PC and PS5 numbers are 30% of the numbers reported here at maximum
source?
Those numbers are only IOS. It doesn’t include android, pc, playstation or any China revenue. It is severely undercounted. Stop trying to trick people into thinking your shit gacha game is close to Genshin in earnings.
>Those numbers are only IOS. It doesn’t include android, pc, playstation or any China revenue
it does include android
PC and PS numbers are not as high

Truly the comfort woman of gacha
Yoko Taro parades her, dressed like a common prostitute, for ojisan IPs to have their fun with her for a pittance
It's really amazing how many gutter trash gachas she features in... i thought she was better than that...
I genuinely think he just doesn't like the character and is salty that Automata was far more successful than the rest of his pet series was, so he debases her for easy money
>attractive female character is featured over and over because of her design
>trannies seethe and use dehumanizing language against attractive female character
At least you achieved womanhood in petty jealousy if nothing else.
Not a trannoid, I just think it's a cheapning disservice to the character as a whole.
>I love this character so much I want her featured in dozens of copycat gutter trash PNG collectors with out-of-character personality and appearance
Thank christ for low taste subhuman coomers like you that let platinum cash out on their lightning in a bottle

jesus christ those designs are awful
>jesus christ those designs are awful
Generic but not as generic Genshin and especially HSR
Blue Archive and FGO are the only gacha with good designs
Don't worry, they heard you and are making everyone wear black in their next game.
not the guy, but I have to agree. The designs are passable, but there's something fundamentally unappealing with the renders as a whole. They're all too flat, too angular and it makes them seem poorly drawn.

>brag about how easy you kill bosses in ultra mega hard raids
end game is easy, no powercreep and no real bosses raids for now (just wait one or two months)
>FTP level up characters to the max in a little time
like I pointed before, no powercreep, you don't need the top notch chars (6 stars) to beat the game, you can do it with 4 stars chars.
but farming the right amount of mats for a FTP is pretty hard if you want the character you like at full the same day you got it, those with 5 and 6 stars specifically

where's the lie
hell, i've heard of twitroons who flip out if theres any pandering
is a single one of these games worth the time besides Limbus Company which is only worth it due to investment in the story that it continues on from previous non-gacha games and not for itself.
Genshin for grooming underage Russian girls (EUchads only)
BA (but you can youtube the story), GFL (It has very similar lore autism like PM from what I have read, FGO if you like nasuslop (but it's also better to youtube it).

Good one moron anon, that’s made by netease
Not really. Kafka is one of the first times in a while that Mihoyo actually leaned into (You)pandering. Blade and Kafka only get ship art, and nobody should ever take ship art as canon. People are coming around to MarchXTB because March has starred in quite a few events alongside TB while Dan has pretty much been absent from everything since the end of Space China probably because Dan got so much focus in Space China.

From what i understand, HSR has a fraction of Genshin's playerbase so they can use that as an excuse, but what's genshin's excuse when they dont make money?
From what I understand, genshit is dying and only has 1/100000 of HSR player base.

the mobile industry needs to be purged
so genshin is the wow of mobile gaming?
Yes.
i will never play mihoyo games but their 3d models are top-tier. i only wish they were subcontractors for some nip companies because clearly nips can't make a 3d anime game with good models/animations to save their lives
>i will never play mihoyo games but their 3d models are top-tier
the frick are you smoking? Genshin 3d models are trash, especially the faces
HSR is much better but far from "top-tier"
>Genshin 3d models are trash, especially the faces
as opposed to-
>as opposed to-
most anime games? even tales and trails are better
Genshin has better animation than these two but all their animation are mocap
>most anime games? even tales and trails are better
nope. i've played up to kuro 1 and the animations are straight up bad. the face models are derpy too, agnes straight up looks like she has perma downs. the same with arise, their mouth movements look especially uncanny since they unwisely made the mouth openings large in speech
the only game that i can evaluate as having better 3d models and competent facial animations was scarlet nexus, but that game heavily used a ton of pngs and talking heads rather than actual cutscenes like during bond conversations. xenoblade 3 has the best facial animations out of all the 3d anime games i've played but the models in general have a blurred, almost color pencil-like textures which i'm not sure if it's because the switch resolution is just garbage or a more fundamental problem with the artstyle
yeah look at this top tier 3d model
lmao
Tales and Trails 3d models are trash not gonna act like they aren't but still better than Genshin
you could have toned down the shilling and only mentioned HSR since it is miles better than Genshin at least
You fail to understand that a model rigged with actual facial features and this expressive was virtually unheard of in the gacha market when it came out. It's what separated genshin from the rest of the gacha trash and made it cross into "real game" realm, which got millions interested (and now terminally invested) in it.
L2market
>gacha
What? We are still talking about genshin vs real game, right?
the problem with arise is that they allowed too much definition to be added to the faces, the artstyle are of anime characters which normally should have very flat features, but the arise's textures reflect light like they're some blown up wax bratz doll
definition to 3d anime artystyle faces isn't a numbers go up thing where more equals better, you can absolutely frick it up and drop into the uncanny valley
I don't see the problem with Arise's models. The issue is Unreal Engine fricking sucks for PVE games. AI problems out the ass for combat and level design has to fit pak chunks.
homie what? Guilty gear models look miles better than anything in Genshin
>Every Genshin character models
>reused 5 skeletons
>reused animations
>reused 5 body models
>everyone face look the same
lol even Code Vein character models look better than this
Is Aldo the best protag in all of gacha?

Shit was bland as frick to be called dating sim, even every single of Diona's router was just cringe shit about her obsession with wine.
You self insert moron are fricking pathetic.
hangouts are the best content in genshin by far, none of the character quests come close
Still not romance dating sim, if romance actually exist in it whale would be rioting because none of 5* character hangout exist.
>Mihomosexual literally too afraid to put actual dating sim content in their game
>they're just more fetch/workholic quests instead
>dating-sim
you never played a dating-sim and it shows
you're too fricking laserfocused on the definition of dating sim moron. we could just have a hangout that actually shows player character and their waifus/husbandos do couple-like activities without any NPC Black folkhit and it would still fall in the realm of dating sim content even if it doesn't have confession or sex scene
Nobody care about the romance. It's implied for some characters and that's a it. Genshin is a family game and not some excuse to sell png of "waifus", if you want harem homosexualry play a porn game.
>nobody care about the romance
yet every single genshiBlack person only talks about wanting male genshins to penetrate their asses or seeing scissoring actions between every single female character
nta but I've seen the back and forth between you and other anon and I see the problem here is that you're thinking that the cancelled "hangout" contents from HSR is on the same level of safe shit from Genshin's when they supposedly have spicy shit like movie dates. Genshin hangout events in comparison are so fricking stale and safe to the point they look like a bunch of normal "collect bear asses" or "talk to various npcs" kind of quests with flavorless dialogue choices.
Does it ended with actual romance or not, that's the main point.
Does the character goes UwU over the MC during the hangout or not?
Blue Archive got multiple characters stories between the MC and their student and every one of them subtle want their sensei's wieners.
If Mihoyo dare to do this same shit in their own games(beside Tears of Themis) then I will cut both of my balls.
>Blue Archive got multiple characters stories between the MC and their student and every one of them subtle want their sensei's wieners
Yeah that's why the hsr cancelled dan and march movie date content was brought up by the other anon, to show that israelitehoyo was willing to entertain a possibility that there are HSR waifus/husbandos (assuming that not all the characters get said treatment) that are willing to engage in couple-like activities like movie date and shit with the player character
I believed it when they show the actual chat logs of said hang out instead of some moronic anonymous Black person on the internet.
Even Noelle "dating sim" story was bland as frick and the ending looks like this
FGO win again baby
>Low effort gacha shit still racking million
>Still the franchise with the most circles in C103
Talking about Nikke, seem like they're stealing artist work, then people point it out so now they're apologize and promise some kind compensation for this artist
Nikke needs to change their k's by g's now.
They even copied design from disgaea and used AI numerous time
Well the whole game is just Nier tomato ripoff with billion of fillers anyway
>cuck this
>ntr that
Play the fricking VN already, gacha games aren't a dating sims
Yet gacha devs rely on their players attraction to their characters to make money.
Are gacha gays the most delusional subgroup of people in gaming industry?
Yes. That's why you see people getting "cucked" when devs aren't pandering to a (you) homosexualry and just make a normal game with a gacha system.
Normal game doesn't ask you to gamble your wallet on every new character release. And such requirement would also require a hefty amount of emotional investment from the players side for your characters unless they're esportshomosexual (who also could bring a whole new can of worm)

WOTV have an MC's parents in gacha
BD2 has a playable daddy with an adopted child though
>Parents
>adopted
Like I said, gacha is fricked because they tried not to offend their audience too much.
Even the rumored Klee's mother in genshin will never be a playable character despite being one of the strongest witch in the game.
They're literal MC's parents.
Also you can roll MC's girlfriend's dad, dead wife of MC's friend, MC's brother, etc
Is this why they keep calling Browndust as an NTR game?

Wait, am I actually FRICKED as an Arknights player? Of course Endfield is coming out but I really enjoy AK's tower defense gameplay, unit design and the diversity in art and how well they take care of their artists. Now we're finding out that they're down 70% in JP AND GB? What the frick.
People are probably reluctant to spend because they know Endfield is coming up, and once Endfield is out then people will start to think it is just a matter of time before Arknights is EoS'd.
you're playing gachashit anon, you're already fricked beyond help
Rolling on m*le characters is disgusting. If you rolled on Argenti I hope you die. Imagine having the ability to vote with your wallet and you vote for more wieners in your gacha game.
I only roll for males. Is there a game for a man like me?
You could try hitting up a brothel with only male gigolos, it’s basically the same thing
Brown dust 2
Genshin had almost a year of only male characters being released.
So from reading this thread you morons basically only play top 10 shit. How are you any different from Fortnite normies?
How the frick is FGO still that high
What the actual shit? The game has done nothing interesting for months. Absolutely moronic
FGO whales might as well be investors
Brown Dust 2? more like Brown Turd 2! LOL
leave the multibillion dollar company alone chud!!!
Mihoyo can't be defeated. They're too strong.
I find it amusing no one bother to said something about number 3 and 4 games, one of them even more than a decade old gacha game.
Gacha are known to credit the artists of their character's illustrations
But no gacha ever credits the modeling of their characters and animations, that's a real tragedy
Isnt the economy bad? How the frick are people spending so much money on gachas.
