They just confirmed that this update was supposed to be the final update, and the next update is the only extra one they added because of the unexpected game sales.
2 new quest have 2 new enemies (eyeball monster reskin and notBehemot from GW) that drops the materials needed to trade for the recruit ticket for the 2 new characters.
No its not a live service at all. They have been giving free updates every month after launch, adding new content with next month being the last and they are explaining it in the showcase.
[...]
idk what GW is but they are adding 2 quests, basically 1 end game and 1 mid game quest so people can grind a currency to unlock the 2 new characters.
Most autistic shit in any gacha game ever conceived.
That said, Relink's version is just two 2 quests for some drops, not people racing raid clears to stack honor points in a 4 round/day pissing contest.
so this game is just a live service game
No, but it's funny that a lot of people believe so, particularly hoyogays who somehow feel threatened.

What is this about GW? I'm not watching the stream because I'm at work right now and I don't need a second job...

not sure why they are going through all this trouble adding all these new features if it isn't a live service but i guess it isn't
That one is basically a long corridor that leads to a big open area where you can always see exactly where you are in relation to the four corners you need to visit. Getting lost there takes some serious skill, nipponese players truly operate on another level.
I was kinda thinking the same but seeing their are trying to get GB away from the mobage, which would by dying I guess, and that they spent a lot of time and money developing this game I expected them to support it and drop DLC for it for a year or so.
You know what they should add is
Ummm an endless dungeon kinda mode or something
No all we need is ways to lessen the RNG grind.
That is the only issue with the game.
If drops were guaranteed even after X amount of time it would be fine.
Shit as it is now I still dont have the damage cap V+ sigils I need from bhamut and now they rarely drop from him, only lucy.
>Buffs to most characters and bufixes >zero changes to ghandagoza
They aren't even going to try and make him more useable by increasing the time before his shit decays.
They probably see him as a lost cause from player data.
Its not a fighting game is it where each character needs to be balanced, some can be shit and some can be OP. Play who you like, they are all viable anyway (with some exceptions against lucilius)
I mean, they could've addressed some of that, I'm sure they could've at least slowed down the decay or maybe speed up some of his animations, but the poor guy got absolutely fricking nothing, meanwhile every other character is getting damage cap boosts to skills/attacks or extra effects during link time and shit.

I have not really played as him, doesnt stout heart and other sigils that allow him to tank hits and not get rekt like vasaraga has negate his issues as a character?
His problem was that building up rage is slow as frick and that by the time he could finish a single combo the enemy already fricked off elsewhere. Then you have to chase the enemy and when you finally get close again your rage already got drained completely.
That was the issue I had with him when I played him. Played him in the demo and tried him once in game but as I said there might be sigils that negate that issue.
idk what his personal sigils do either.

>idk what his personal sigils do either
They both improve his big charge punch, but you need full rage to maximize its strength so it doesn't fix any of his problems.

Does he have gap closing skills and are they on a short cooldown?
If so stacking cooldown could help him.

>Does he have gap closing skills
He does, but you still have to do a full combo afterwards to build some rage.
Yeah its fun.
I mean the whole point is grinding, so you do X quest to get Y material so that you can get Z item so you can do X quest.
That is the gameplay loop, constant building your characters power to do harder quests.
End game is repeating the harder quests for materials and drops.
The core gameolay though is combat, and each character plays completely differently.
Something like 95% of character rebalances in Granblue are complete farts in the wind nothingburger changes in any case. Cygames would do some dumb shit that does nothing for Ghandagoza's fundamental problem, and then claim they buffed him. Cygames devs don't even play the games they work on (who has time to? KMR makes everything a stupid-tier grind.)
Rosetta getting damage cap for her roses that need you to run 5 attack buffs to even hit the current damage cap is a good example of not playing your own game buffs.
It happens to me as percy and I have a sigil on that gives me stout heart while charging his schlat, pisses me off as it hits his DPS hard loosing a charge, and messes up my rotation.
I'll probably never play Relink again, I came back when they put in Lucius or whatever the frick his name is and it was the dumbest shit. Spent half the time watching cutscenes of this motherfricker fighting some other dude who they made look so cool and epic, what the frick was that shit.
HYPEEEEEEE
I dont expect any significant changes tbh, only the 2 new chars.
Would be at least nice if they fixed the drop descriptions in missions.
They just confirmed that this update was supposed to be the final update, and the next update is the only extra one they added because of the unexpected game sales.
More story instead of more boss fights
Better be more quests.
Oh shet
Ghadaghoza really is the least played character
Pretty sad he has a cook style, just damage output is weak.
More people watching Granblue than Segas MMO they spent a crap ton of money and more dev power than FF14 on which is hilarious.
FRICKKKK
Seofon looks badass
>unite and fight but its actually not

Ok, good, it's just the boss fights, not the actual guild war pvp mechanic somehow mutated and put inside a relink.

Behemoth was one of the monsters I wanted in, alright! Now gib elemental bawds.
2 new quests is great, I was only expecting 2 new characters.
Plus he said it drops sigils so maybe we can use the excess stuff and get sigils...
>GW in Relink
As long as that monkey KMR is in charge, Cygames will never not put some pointlessly grindy shit in their games.
so this game is just a live service game
No its not a live service at all. They have been giving free updates every month after launch, adding new content with next month being the last and they are explaining it in the showcase.

not sure why they are going through all this trouble adding all these new features if it isn't a live service but i guess it isn't
It's live service, but compared to other games that actually fricking adds content that has substance it feels like it's just fluff.
>adding all these new features if it isn't a live service
To add content for players to play.
WTF is there you cant understand.
its not live service, we are getting new free content and thats it. idk if they will release DLC later on.
Cygames is a gay company for not making her playable.
lol those are some frontier type emotes this shit is just granblue frontier
>people getting lost in the story map locations
stuff that never happened
Japanese players are moronic I assume that at least one case did happen
at least we're getting a neat photo mode with it.
Also I imagine that this game bought in some players who are just mobile players who have never played ARPGs before.
Maybe they got lost in the desert? It's on the only open world part of the game.
the game straight up tells you where to go, and also takes control of the camera during it. you just go to the pillars on each side and thats it.
The rest of the game is a linear rollercoaster, how else could they get lost?

SONG'S SONGS!
Cute
hahaha
the 3d live concert was kinda alright
Have they fixed the awful fricking matchmaking yet
SIGIL SYNTHESIS COMING IN MAY
Thank frick. This was a no brainer to do to lessen the grind. Not fair that 100s of my V+ sigils are trash traits.
new quests and side quests too
Pretty neat, I was honestly expecting them to just drop Lucilius, the two eternals, Sandal and then call it a day.
I was kinda thinking the same but seeing their are trying to get GB away from the mobage, which would by dying I guess, and that they spent a lot of time and money developing this game I expected them to support it and drop DLC for it for a year or so.

and thats it.enjoy your super hard mode rerun fight with luci next month for those that can even manage it
Relink 2 when
Do you actually get to pilot the airships around in this? Or does it always just put you on the islands?
Neither, its a monster hunter like game with doing instanced quests and grinding for materials.
Bummer. Was hoping it would satisfy my desire for a modern Skies of Arcadia.
Improved the visibility of damage numbers that have hit their damage cap.
This is actually useful
>Buffs to most characters and bufixes
>zero changes to ghandagoza
They aren't even going to try and make him more useable by increasing the time before his shit decays.

Its not a fighting game is it where each character needs to be balanced, some can be shit and some can be OP. Play who you like, they are all viable anyway (with some exceptions against lucilius)
Ghanda is unironically not viable for a lot of the harder fights though. He's just too slow and his rage decays too quickly.
I mean, they could've addressed some of that, I'm sure they could've at least slowed down the decay or maybe speed up some of his animations, but the poor guy got absolutely fricking nothing, meanwhile every other character is getting damage cap boosts to skills/attacks or extra effects during link time and shit.

Where does it say that?
the official news page on the granblue fantasy relink website
I don't any buffs could make ghandagoza actually good
Am I late to the party if I haven't played since before the Luci update?
no you aren't late at all a lot of the update is for players like you
and the pyet a fight seems more cracked out
But I've missed out on everything Luci drops now.
I have zero interest in the gacha but I do like Versus well enough. Should I get Relink? Is it fun?
Yeah its fun.
I mean the whole point is grinding, so you do X quest to get Y material so that you can get Z item so you can do X quest.

I've got about 100 hours of fun out of it. Will probably play more when the update drops.
Move on already get the frick off the PS4
Why yes, I run FoF and I'm proud of it.
But do you run the mods that made Charlotta naked and give her pubes?
Has anyone said if this'll be on sale/discount anytime soon on pc?

>Environmental factors such as strong winds and ground tremors should no longer cancel Ares's summoning during Ares Pactstrike.
Thank fricking god
It happens to me as percy and I have a sigil on that gives me stout heart while charging his schlat, pisses me off as it hits his DPS hard loosing a charge, and messes up my rotation.
No Babu no buybu
1.2 is such a dead patch holy shit. You might as well just skip it until next month for 1.3 where the actual cool shit gets added.
Don't think the game is getting updated after 1.3. It launched as a complete game.
I'll probably never play Relink again, I came back when they put in Lucius or whatever the frick his name is and it was the dumbest shit. Spent half the time watching cutscenes of this motherfricker fighting some other dude who they made look so cool and epic, what the frick was that shit.
