What's wrong with Charlie Chaplin?
the sad truth
>game has a pretty decent animu character creator
>the waifus you roll for are fairly generic and could be made in said creator
>meaning players can just make their ideal character and then not give a shit about any of the gacha rolls
really weird system but at least it isn't trying to goad you into paying for a decent character. you'd think they'd have at least went a little more wild with the prefab characters though if this was their gameplan
You still get weapons with the characters, the characters themselves are more of a bonus with the weapons.
The weapons are the characters
Ok, I'm not the far in, but are the characters from the weapon gacha like actually, characters at any point? Do they show up in the story, do they have any personality given somewhere, or are they literally just a skin?
I think the one that looks like diluc runs a fight club arena but I haven't really been paying enough attention to notice anyone else
they're all characters that you meet later on
>the waifus you roll for are fairly generic and could be made in said creator
Nah some of them are flatter, bustier, or shorter than what you can make in the character creator. Same goes for King being taller than the tallest option for male height
There's pvp and it's already going to be a fomo mess that facilitates whales strictly. The game is dead the moment the meta solidifies.
Are you moronic? The charactets are skin attached to the wespons and the gacha is where youget your entire fricking gear and you need to roll meta weapons
I like the e-girl catgirl with the transparent stomach and visible spine. Otherwise yeah a lot of the characters seem generic
>Guy in second town says he's giving you some experimental new weapon modification system
>Nothing happens
>time-gated open world objectives on tutorial island
Blame China
Pretty sure we will.
What are the odds that the Aida homies end up being the good guys somehow
80%
What if you run out content too fast? you can only put open boxes that were locked yesterday or the day before into your daily checklist bro!
ok nerds tell me the perfect strat to get the only cool weapons: ice sword, ice bow and ice staff
get lucky lol
So much did you spend so far?
bump
Are the chests in mainland all timelocked too? How can I tell if I hit the exp cap?
Please tell me we're getting a e-girl mecha pilot character later
wheres the locations for the parts on this hotrod car thing, it looks rad and I want it but I don't even know where the locations even are
Is there any way to turn off the camera's auto-rotation? Aiming with a bow while strafing is impossible because the camera rotates with your movement.
>exploration game that punishes you for doing anything
dead on arrival
All modern gachas and MMOs do that because anti-burnout mechanics work for retention. The game is going to die not because of that but because it's just janky as hell. People are either going to keep playing Genshin or play the next clone that will come out so it will bleed players like crazy.
I've never seen that before personally. Genshin kind of had some slumps when it came out but that doesn't really happen anymore for new players. Either way though it doesn't hard cuck you like this which actually punishes you for playing more than a couple of hours.
Genshin doesn't hard gate you in this manner, but resin was a huge limiting factor and still is.
That's only for a particular kind of progression which is optional. The vast majority of quests aren't time gated especially main quests, and you can explore freely.
You could have opened chests and did other stuff to get past that threshold but yeah I remember how it was, but like I said it's only gotten better since then. You can pretty much blaze straight through to AR50something now.
I've put like ... maybe 5 hours into ToF and got hard cucked twice already and pissed away hundreds of thousands of EXP just trying to have fun. This is just fricking moronic.
When I started playing Genshin I still had to wait at least a day to level up to continue the story and had to do dailies, so timegated story was there, also resin. However this game has timegated chests and more timegated stuff. The thing is that when you're done with Genshin, people don't do dailies and just wait until big patches come out to play the new areas and do the story quests. I doubt this game will do anything close to it and if it does, the quality wouldn't even match Genshin's huge budget, and they kinda now since you have a skip button which I really like.
>and mmo's
Name 3 modern mmos with lots of players that do this.
War Of Worldcraft. The End Of Fantasy 14. The Scrolls Of The Elders.
I was going to ask why, then I realized they all gate fricking gear and progression behind nothing and I never questioned it. I hate MMOs I hate trannies FRICK.
based, frick speedrunner trannies that want to blow their load on every game they play and beat and mmo in three hours. every shared multiplayer game should do this from now on just to spite them. there is no sense of adventure and having fun in here games anymore, just metaBlack folk slavedriving themselves thinking they’ll never get laid if they don’t have x thing before everybody else.
Yeah, no, not touching this shit game
I would have said it can't hurt to try it but honestly with that shit system it's not even worth it.
Why would anyone play this shit? Not only are you timegated levels, you are timegated chest in the open world.
They are timegating chests to "fix" the problem of people depleting all the EXP you get from chests.
Fixing a problem they caused themselves. It's so incredibly stupid.
I feel like it already bombed but yea.
So that you log in every single day for more than just doing dailies and log out
You opening chests in the open world casual exploration is literally a daily chore now.
MMO audience is just gonna get filtered week1 so hard and only gacha addicts will survive
>Day 88
>hit lvl cap yesterday, only took ~2 hours
>any exp you gain after lvl cap is wasted, so no point in playing further
>hit lvl cap again today, ~2 hours more
This shit is so bad. At least make the exp be "banked" and you get it the next day.
>worse gating than Genshin
And people will unironically defend this.
This is day in server(so starting late it's actually good) or day in playing (you're fricked in all the fricking ways)
It's based on your own account, and the quests are time gated too.
explain how starting late in gacha is anything but Bad
you lose all the rewards the initial players got. youre going to be so far behind if youre f2p
I started Granblue last year and i could catch up to rank 280 out 325 and i did all the hard endgame content the game as to offer while being able to achieve top80k in all GW on manual play for 2 hours/day.
But this one i feel it will be unforgiving for laters
Yeah. Especially since the event where you can select which SSR you want is gonna go away in 20 days. I'm still unsure if I should go meta pistols or the Meryl.
You need to login for 24 hours non-stop to reach the next cap.
You mean "is this" and its "days you played" to stop you from blasting through all content in a week.
>so I'll just download the game and immediately quit for a week to get past the restrictions
No it's days you PLAYED so the day counter only ticks over when you log in
"""content"""
All gachashit non games have none of that, its why they have to gate your progression so hard.
it's your side days
If they don't remove it RIGHT AS I POST THIS the game is just not gonna get any new player starting next week already
Never seen something so dead in the water MMO
After thinking about it, I think this is an okay system. Games like this often timegate your level by limiting your exp gain, this is just the inverse: they shove exp down your throat but limit your level. I think the curve could be more rapid but the system itself seems fine.
Yeah. If you look at Genshin you only get exp from doing activities that are timegated with stamina, or in minuscule amounts by opening chests. Story quests gave you exp but were also ran out quickly at launch.
ToF is shitting out exp even from normal enemies so losing out on exp from opening some chests isn't a big deal at all because it seems like you'll easily keep hitting the next level cap by doing dailies anyway.
It also doesn't matter even if you "waste" the limited chests because the game shits out respawnable ones all over the map constantly, and they give the same amount of exp. I've seen them spawn right next to me, I've even seen two on top of each other.
How is that different from any other gachashit?
never heard of this game till today
seeing this and its gonna flop so hard
any hardcore people who survive the first 3-4 months to become max level will only be playing with each other, any new player after those 3-4 months are gonna see all these high levels and once they find out this info are gonna be turned right off.
playing 2-3 hours a day for 3 months straight not only become annoying and a chore but feels like work now instead of fun
It's not based on account age. I rerolled today and I'm at 24.
i dont know what you just said
It sounds like he's claiming the level cap is based on days since launch, and not days each individual account plays.
So someone could start the day an account started on launch day can hit level 50, and have the same level 50 cap as the older account does rather than needing to wait
still dont understand, people are saying you can only get a set amount of exp a day, hence it takes a set amount of days to reach max level if you get that max amount of exp every day for 88 days
so 6 months after the game comes out a new player will still need to do 88 days of playing to max their level right?
Its based on how old the game is not your account
so then there's no reason to even bother with the game till after 3 months
You’re moronic
none of the posts pointed out it was a launchgate
which is still stupid since there no reason to even play till 3 months pass
>people are saying you can only get a set amount of exp a day
For now yes.
>so 6 months after the game comes out a new player will still need to do 88 days of playing to max their level right?
No.
I'm saying it's a rolling cap for the whole game. A new player that joins e.g. on day 7 will have a cap of 36.
the bigger MMO audience is still getting filtered by the gacha anyways
>so where i farm my gear
>open the menu and roll the gacha
What in the fricking christ is this? This is some new-age timegating to force people to keep playing the game.
I'll be honest bros, the game's fun and the world is interesting enough.
If I want action combat with any depth, would Punishing: Gray Raven be the way to go?
>combat with depth
I'd say stop playing gacha. That would be a good start.
Why does that woman have a mustache?
I'm really enjoying just gunning down enemies with the gun I got but man why the frick are levels time gated.
Frick off.
Ill let you know in 88 days
why are they like this? there's almost no content currently in the game for people who have reached the level cap. no wonder the game is so empty. people reach the cap and quit because t here's not much to do.
Artificial elongation of the game trying to milk money as much as possible even though they aren't confident in the product.
I laugh at people spending money on it, holy shit they're idiots.
You'd think it bombing in China would be a wake up call for some people, but hey they'll find out in a few weeks.
Why does the game have blocks like this on top of stamina? It straight up doesn't want me to play.
CCP dictates. They want their games to have mechanisms to stop their men from playing for three days nonstop and dying.
Pft...HAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
wow its almost like this is a fricking mobile game designed around that shitty platform.
>Level cap will eventually only go up by ONE a day
ARE YOU FRICKING JOKING? ONE FRICKING LEVEL A DAY? Jesus Christ, that's hilarious and sad. "Hey guys, you can only go up ONE LEVEL TODAY and then ONE LEVEL tomorrow."
If it's like most MMOs, going from 55-56 would be the same EXP as going from 1 to 30 or so.
So the devs are basically going to make it take like 1-2 hours to go up one level? That's still annoying.
You probably just know that originally they were going to have the words GET A GIRLFRIEND AND OR JOB flash on the screen everytime you hit the limit.
Really though, it's pretty unorthodox.
>"Hey guys, with our work schedules I hope nobody out levels each other. It'd be nice if we could all progress and do the fun content together!"
It's like the developers heard what I said and monkey pawed everyone for it.
holy frickin shit
I figured the level cap thing would end after a week. Like it was meant to prevent everyone from rushing to max at day1. But 3 MONTHS timegated levels? They will lose 90% of it's playerbase before that.
Probably the dumbest fricking thing a company could do. What the hell where they thinking? Genshin time gates its content based on resin, but you could still play all available story quests at your own pace.
I get trying to keep players invested is really hard and I don't think literally forcing you from completing content on a daily basis was a very good way to do that.
it just makes me not want to play until the game is actually completable and with this kind of content drip it might actually die before that
Do you have to login every day to uncap the story/chest/lvl caps or can you forget about it and come back?
So this is more layers of getting fricked if you didn't start day 1 than normal.
>was downloading the game
not gonna bother playing, thanks for the warning
been playing all day. the game starts out kind of shitty then becomes okay but then you realize there's not much to do once you reach the level/daily cap. motherfrickers doing 300k dmg in a dungeon though. also dungeons dont drop gear, or it's extremely rare if they do. they just drop the equivalent of shitty gems that give you slight upgrades to your weapon. there's a cap on how many times you can loot in the in dungeons too.
Any of you guys playing it on android and know if it has controller support? Touch screen gaming is ass so I'll try it if I can connect my ps4 controller.
there's a controller support option but im not a phonegay / controllergay
Sorry, I just want to clarify. You're saying mobile has controller support but you aren't playing on mobile, right.
it has controller support but idk if mobile can use that option
Alright thanks anon back to googling.
nta but my friend tried to use his PS5 controller but it wasn't recognized. I think only Xbox style controllers work
100% of the menus only work with your mouse and keyboard but you can play the actual game with a controller.
>100% of the menus only work with your mouse and keyboard
lmao
i've been looking for a mindless grinding game with character customization for years that i can listen to music while playing so im glad this came out
>tower of fantasy
they really chose the most generic generic mobile game name possible
Well yeah Tower of Fantasy for a sci fi setting is fricking weird.
Phantasy Star is also a scifi series, so it makes sense in a way
Not when they name the central tower that, all it does is let them mine a rock and transfer the energy to other parts of the planet. Imagine naming the USG Ishimura the USG Gandalf or some shit.
Which is crazy since it's pretty heavy on the scifi elements. Like it's more like phantasy star in the setting.
>Max level today is 24
Come the frick on.
how is this not broken in pvp
how do you even PVP yet
it becomes available in a few days
>pvp timegated
THERE IS NOT A SINGLE FRICKING SYSTEM IN THIS GAME THAT ISNT TIMEGATED AHAHAHAHAHA
Welcome to korean/chinese/japanese daily grinder games. Please swipe adult card if you want to play with an additional hour of stamina
Is this game like Phantasy Star Online?
Because more people played Genshin than PSO, so obviously it more like that one
Genshin you roll for character so I couldn't get into it, I heard you make your own guy so I figured they wanted to make an actual action RPG and being set in a scifi world that makes it in the same genre as PSO
I'd day it's less janky than PSO 2 or NGS
I've never really ran into that many janked issues with my time with PSO2 or NGS, but seeing all the falling through the floor, jank ladder climbing, or whatever in the ever living frick this bug is >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JlKyIYqSc8&ab_channel=AsmongoldClips I can't really say.
No, not at all, it's like Genshin, but more jank
Setting wise? Yeah sure, it's like PSO
Gameplay wise? It's no PSO2 or NGS, just a jankier genshin
Is it still gacha?
Game focused on multiple weapons but you start with two type of weapons, everything else you get from gacha.
Imagine Monster Hunter but you can't try any of its weapon outside of sword and dual blaeds, unless you paid money.
Jesus I was thinking about giving it a shot but that sounds annoying as frick
Why do you think this game still ranked under 300 in China despite coming out a year ago?
>reached the lvl cap of 24 in like 30 minutes
now what
turn the game off and wait till tomorrow
tempted to just fricking drop the game
and I just wanted to explore it like I've done for many MMOs, but it just feels like crap to play.
>open chest at exp cap
>waste exp
haha so fun

if real games still existed i wouldnt have to be playing this chinese malware, but only china is making non pozzed multiplayer games now

two strongest simulcrums so far seem to be meryl and cocoritter? meryl does stupid damage and cocoritter does stupid healing.
Which weapons are these?
the big sword. idk cocoritters.
Did they ever make a good reroll guide?
the tiny level cap is what will kill the game, other than that its a solid dopamine generator
>explore the world for chest
>its timegated as well
yea..nice dopamine generated
>enemies are designed to take too long to kill to get you to whale
>chests are time gated
>rewards waste your exp
yeah nah
not to mention stand 5 seconds to interact with every chest, container, switch
>enemies are designed to take too long to kill to get you to whale
look at this guy
>enemies are designed to take too long to kill to get you to whale
Nah, they're designed to make you focus on using Discharge attacks as your heavy hit/ finishers, IMO. You'd have to build for it specifically if you're going to kill enemies fast with regular attacks. So you're supposed to either build up for it, get good at dodging since Phantasia/bullet time insta-charges Discharge ability, or get help. Some weapons seem pretty good, the Terminator's active fires slow as shit but does satisfying amounts of damage for it.
>Nah,
>the rest of his post literally just confirms what I said
>ignores that discharge attacks barely do any damage
you must be a stupid variety of Black person to be honest with you anon, with my weapons im breezing through every enemy in the game and reached level cap today in like 30 minutes of playing because how fast things are dying
you need to upgrade your weapon. i can 1 shot mobs with a lvl 40 weapon.
i spent no money and i'm two shotting smaller enemies and melting bigger ones too, you just suck at RPGs
the exp waste is awful though
So how is this thing compared to genshin?
Is the exploration better? The combat? And while this is an incredibly low bar the story/dialogue?
I cant see a single thing is does better than Genshin, in fact the time I spent playing last night (to the point where it timegated me) just made me want to play Genshin again, and I havent played Genshin in over a year.
Yeah, that seems like the general consensus I've seen so far.
I played 3 weeks of Genshin on release and this game is far more generous by fricking far. The 80 SSR pity that doesn't reset is nice. Other than that, they really should have spend some more time polishing everything because it's pretty janky at times. It kinda made me want to play Genshin again but then I remembered how israeli and shit it is so I guess I'll have my 3 weeks of fun and then quit.
I think the exploration is about the same, really. The combat's better, but that's my personal preference, especially since it seems like this will attempt to have way more combat styles than just sword/claymore/magic/bow/spear. Those are present plus guns as is. I also appreciate the idea of the equipment you can use both for combat and exploration purposes.
Story and dialogue is pretty generic and not moving, but honestly I didn't look to either Genshin or other gacha games for story for the most part. Genshin's problem is that it highly overvalues its story, to the point where people celebrate this game just having an almost always present skip button.
Just be aware that people aren't kidding that it's pretty jank, lines get cut off or don't play, some things are odd. I think the XP cap will be the biggest thing discouraging people from sticking around, because people don't like having limits on gameplay. I think the fricked part is it probably had the whole one-hour-on-the-weekend-for-kids thing on mind for China. Here you'll just see people like
because they already capped the previous day. They'll have to accelerate the "uncapping" to fix that.
Combat is better but exploration is worse. Not only are the areas uglier but there's zero variety in exploring. Genshin at least has simple puzzles and gimmicks.
>I think the exploration is about the same,
Even compare to shit region like Monstad ToF is still lacking, in 2 or 3 hours starting genshin you can start exploring Liyue and the quality of the area of exploration increased ten folds.
>The combat's better
It's more action based but it's not better.
Combat in Genshin got real fricking samey, and while I'm not saying this game offers much more in terms of overall capability, Aerial combat and the additional weapon types allow for more variety go a long way. Hell, even the whole bullet time thing and separation of dodge charge and stamina do. The game is ABSOLUTELY more combat-based, and I think Genshin's problem is that its combat fricking sucks compared to even other Mihoyo titles. In other words you're arguing it's not better than Genshin and I'm arguing that's not a very high bar to achieve in the first place.
>Combat in Genshin got real fricking samey
There are objectively more unique actions and a much higher APM requirement to play Genshin than Tower of Fantasy.
You aren't being unbiased saying that this
gameplay which literally never changes, enemies just get spongier, is better than this
which are just 2 out of many teams.
ToF has some depth with how you can have 3 weapons but you aren't required to switch between them in the same way you are with Genshin, and combat generally just boils down to mashing and dodging and repeating between breaking shields and doing damage. It gets old fast.
>combat generally just boils down to mashing and dodging and repeating between breaking shields and doing damage. It gets old fast.
So does spamming Vaporize and Melt to do the same damn thing 90% of the time. But you're the sort of guy to think the Abyss is any good, so I'll let you be the rabid fanboy you are and let live.
So then make teams that melt, freeze, shatter, overvape, overload, electro-charge, mono-element, or do physical damage. You're being an idiot. There's nothing to ToF's combat aside from it being action-y. It's very shallow and built to encourage whaling.
>so make things inferior to Vaporize and Melt
Just be fricking glad you finally got Dendro after nearly two years dude.
>Melt
Way to expose yourself as never having played the game.
Yeah, it got so bad that only Vaporize was worth a damn. Electro wasn't for the longest time and when I quit it was just literally fricking energy battery memes. Physical was a goddamn joke, Eula was carrying Ice outside of Ganyu. Melt WAS the only thing putting out comparable damage and apparently even that's not the case anymore. Maybe things changed since I stopped playing in January but I'll tell you what, I'm not going back even if ToF crashes and burns. I'm off the Genshin train. Your attitude is that Genshin's better than ToF and mine is that there are games better than both that I can play, but for now I'll take ToF to scratch the itch to a similar degree. Plus the co-op is actually fricking existent.
>Eula was carrying Ice
>Melt putting out ANY kind of damage, EVER
What am I reading?
Someone who doesn't know your game to the autistic level you do. But you're just proving my point when you're also just emphasizing mine that it's Vaporize or do nothing. Literally both of the fricking end game teams you show off in that clip focus on that.
You're doing Genshin more of a disservice than I am.
Vaporize is boomer style. Freeze is actually the best reaction because of pic related.
You've seemed to have missed the point of the gatcha in a gatcha game for some reason. The meta changes according to who is on the banner, as Spiral Abyss (the only thing you can call an endgame here) is an ad to spend money on the limited banner. That's how Hoyoverse will always make money, by providing solutions to problems they create.
Yeah, neither games are actually trying to be good ol' fashioned fun. Tell you what, instead of playing either go buy Neon White. Just like Genshin the story's cringe as frick but the gameplay's fun, but actually fun this time!
>spending money on video games
And that's why the rest of the gaming world still looks down on you Genshingays. Shit, pirate it, I bet the devs care more about people playing it than getting dosh out of it anyways.
I'd rather play Genshin
I'll give you freeze since freeze teams do feel meaningfully different from other types of reaction-based teams. However, melt, overvape, overload, electro-charged, mono-element, and physical damage basically do the same thing. They're all just very slightly different ways to do more damage. Outside of floor 12 of the abyss where you have to be ultra-autistic with efficiency, these reactions are borderline interchangeable in terms of how they affect the combat.
Also, making a new team in Genshit that's even close to the viability of your current team could literally take over a year of saving primogems, grinding artifacts, and waiting for a character's reroll. What's the point of putting all that effort in? So you can make a taser team instead of a vape team, even though they're borderline identical?
The truth of the matter is that both games have shit combat with little to no depth. You're comparing dogshit to bullshit and arguing which one smells better. Play real games. Don't support this trash game model. If you don't wanna pay for shit, download an emulator.
>I also appreciate the idea of the equipment you can use both for combat and exploration purposes.
I'd appreciate it more if it wasn't functionally garbage thanks to phones not having buttons.
Are the camera and targeting better than genshin? That would sure be nice.
You can customize vertical camera turning as well as horizontal. If you mean with Aiming, it's wonky, for whatever reason you turn while strafing when aiming with a ranged weapon.
Does the vertical camera sensitivity go higher than Genshin's? Because genshin is crazy slow.
By targeting I mean how genshin forces you to attack whichever enemy is closest, regardless of the direction you're holding towards.
What you said about aiming sounds wonky af though.
>Does the vertical camera sensitivity go higher than Genshin's? Because genshin is crazy slow.
3.0 adds a seperate h/v control in a few weeks
How's the music? Anything notable.
Oh shit, is that from leaks? Finally. Now they just have to fix the camera being fricking yandere and never allowing anything to get between you and it.
>There are three different settings for auto-targeting mode.
Yeah that's what I want from genshin. I guess we'll find out if competition works.
>I guess we'll find out if competition works.
this game isnt competing with genshin. genshin pulled so many people in because it's *not* shovelware.
You never know, maybe Mihoyo will say "hey this game does something better than us, we should borrow that to improve our product" lol
i like the jetpack jump thing but then it's funny how ToF instantly shoots itself in the dick by making the gliding speed like slightly slower falling
? works fine
you dont want the character to lock to ladders you want them to be able to circle around and jump off from any direction in genshin.
>i like the jetpack jump thing but then it's funny how ToF instantly shoots itself in the dick by making the gliding speed like slightly slower falling
I like the relics functionally except the stupid fricks completely kneecapped the system by only letting you equip two of them at once with two of them being major mobility tools while others are used to interact with stuff in the world and get more nuclei. I blame phones for this.
>I blame phones for this.
well the pc port is clearly an afterthought, this was likely intended to be mobile only until like active development ended and they announced the game. Just count your lucky stars we're getting anything remotely close to a videogame considering
>count your lucky stars
0 reason to count your lucky stars over tower of fantasy when sumeru is out in 2 weeks. i do count my lucky stars for genshin impact being so genuinely good though.
Does Sumeru have the e-girl brawler?
>check out sumeru
>all the character designs look like shit
Shit on Tower of Fantasy all you want, but don't pretend Genshin isn't just as shit.
they were surely having a laugh when they put nuclei right next to each other that require different relics. it also triggers me that you have to pause menu, relic menu, and then for no good reason they added a deploy submenu to actually change the relics.
>you dont want the character to lock to ladders you want them to be able to circle around and jump off from any direction in genshin.
Jumping off is fine and not the problem, the problem is that you basically never actually want to climb on the side or back of a ladder.
>the problem is that you basically never actually want to climb on the side or back of a ladder.
false. i specifically stated that jumping off in any direction is desired because sometimes you do do that.
probably not the back side but definitely the sides
there isnt anything like the jetpack. joomp isnt directional
I have literally never wanted to do that. Ladders are almost always up against the thing you want to climb and there's no point jumping sideways. And if this were actually a useful thing it would be better accomplished by just holding right or left and pressing jump while on the front of the ladder, rather than your character awkwardly clambering onto the thin side of a ladder.
There's multiple character abilities, and even a universal tool, that provide the same vertical lift functionality combined with the universal directional glide. Unless I just haven't got that far in ToF, which I'm not super deep, the Jetpack is just a vertical takeoff + glide. The only thing Genshin is lacking is the non vertical downward dive attacks, which is admittedly very nice.
Eh, the jetpack feature is in Genshin, it's just locked behind specific characters. ToF really kinda felt like it shot itself in the foot, or the face kind of, making characters literally just skins and separating out the utility equipment like the jetpack into separate things with their own fragments. Genshin incentivizes you wanting characters behind just combat by putting those utility features on the character itself. Not saying either method is good, but ToF really lacks the incentivizing factor for rolling for characters.
>Does the vertical camera sensitivity go higher than Genshin's? Because genshin is crazy slow.
By default it's stupidly slow but you can set it to a normal speed in the settings where horizontal and vertical camera speed are separate.
>By targeting I mean how genshin forces you to attack whichever enemy is closest, regardless of the direction you're holding towards.
There are three different settings for auto-targeting mode. Smart is the default and that's been mostly fine but it does tend to target closer enemies over ones behind them which is a problem for one boss that spawns adds.
>What you said about aiming sounds wonky af though.
I didn't even notice it until he pointed it out, it's very minor.
The whole future is going to be like this, isn't it? Gacha replacing monthly subs, half the people playing on phones.
Hold out for 3-4 decades anon. We'll get true AR eventually.
how the frick did you no life Black folk reach level cap in 30 minutes? it took me literally 12am to 4am to get to level 12
We aren't fricking idiots like you. You literally just follow the quest. If you open too many chests you just waste EXP. It's casual as FRICK to the point it's not even worth playing.
what do you mean open chest and waste exp?
see
If you do the quest and open chests, you're going to end up wasting EXP.
you realize I took 4 hours to get to level 12 right? I'll be fine and still waste no exp at this rate since the cap keeps increasing by day
I do realize you're moronic, yes. But most people aren't you.
intentionally rushing through shit instead of exploring, wow what a genius you are. bet you dropped cash on this shit as well
>literally following the story casually for a couple of hours is now intentionally rushing
Game got timegated level cap, boxes got exp in it just like Genshin.
But if you open those boxes while under level cap your exp got wasted.
Imagine those people who knows nothing about this mechanic wasting all their time on day one.
Opening chests gives exp. If you're level 24, it's a waste to open chests until tomorrow because you're literally throwing away exp.
I've almost completed 100% on Astra. It's just a pain to find the rest of the hidden treasures and waiting for the chests to be available.
I sometimes feel bad for the actual devs who work on these games, but then i remember they are soulless chinks
>soulless

I could feel some fun and passion in the game but then you could feel the weight of, I guess, the publisher. That just turned it all into shit.
>the autistic guy that just wants to play every assassin game

the assasin dude is pure kino. I literally feel like somebody is trying to scam me every time I talk to or watch Chinese people talk though. there is something really unsettling about them that I don’t get from Thai/Japanese/Korean/etc
Played a few hours. Not a fan. On the plus side there's air attacks and some of the models look nice, plus you can give your character a nice big jiggling pair of breasts. But on the other hand the missions are extremely bland, the environments and enemies look low budget, the music is weak, and despite all of the hair options you can't even make a good hime cut. Very disappointing.
Me and 3 friends tried to play together last night but literally every single thing we did was instanced to one person. Has anyone gotten out of tutorial island? Is there actual group content at all or what.
Anyone? Bls
Theres world bosses and some kind of dungeon thing. though theres only 1 unlocked, the rest are timegated :^)
>wanted the fire scythe
>learned that the character who uses it is male
dropped. stop putting this shit in gachas.
you can use the weapons without using the character
Weapons aren’t tied to characters, they just come with them.
The characters are literally just skins you equip and you don’t have to use them to use a certain weapon.

Takes 20 minutes to get your first standard SSR so it's easy. But the game sucks and you get a free SSR ticket if you stick with it anyway(you won't).
It's not even remotely as generous.
Are you really saying that Genshin is more generous? Where a random chest gives me 20 primogems?
You didn't play Genshin for long so I don't blame you for not knowing this, but yes. It's not even fricking CLOSE. There are thousands of chests too you realize, and all of them lead you toward limited characters. ToF leads towards standard crap. Do you know how to get limited characters in ToF? Since the game is already bleeding, 99% of people will never get a single limited SSR you know. 99% of Genshin players got their first within a month of playing.
Constant events shit out gems if you bother to do them. Last time I've gotten every new female 5 star since Kokomi for free. Only time I needed to spend was on Shogun because she dropped right after Yoimiya and Ayaka.
I had no idea then. I remember the first event being some delivery trash and I already explored nearly all the available world so I just quit. I think having a SSR character early would make people try to invest themselves a bit more. None of the free characters were exactly appealing except Fischl and Lumine and I think air Lumine was trash and Fischl without constellations was trash too. Constellations is another thing I find pretty israeli too but dunno how this game handles dupes so I can't exactly complain. Also I end up hitting pitty and got Diluc instead of any of the cute girls so that made me a bit more mad.
no steam no play
I thought it was on steam
The chink decide not to because steam actually track the player numbers.
i was enjoying the game but i actually think the time gated level cap and time gated chests are enough to tell me this game isnt worth sticking with, if i try to get a friend into this game 1 year from now it will take them a year to catch up to the point i was at and they'll still always be behind
>Shirli is probably gonna die
At least I still have Lumine
can I get a SSR before the 30 pity? And if I do does that guarantee one more at 30
i watched 2 of my friends get the ssr bow 15 minutes into playing by using the all the free orbs the game gives you, im fully convinced the game gives everyone a random ssr early on to hook them
lmao no, I got 40 pulls 30 minutes into the game and got three spear b***h dupes.

Any reason to NOT use the decryption keys on those chests?
How far can you go before feeling the need to roll the gacha for better weapons/characters in order to clear content? For those that want to save
5 hours, not because the content gets harder, but because there's literally nothing else to do but rolling the gacha and watch the results.
Which server is the actual USA one?
The Shirli "avatar" is only from the more expensive battle pass? Man she's really cute but I dont want to pay that.
unironically cant imagine anyone paying for shit in this game
What are the gacha rates?
>Finished all the day's story quests/events
Guess I'll wait till tomorrow to do the next round of stuff, kind of hate how they're drip-feeding content with timegate shit, guess they don't want anyone getting too far ahead of anyone else, so this way everyone stays around the same level or has time to keep up with one another.
I also heard the level cap is only going up THREE LEVELS a day, that's fricking nothing, like you'll play for an hour or so and hit max level, and you'll probably run out of stuff to do in 2-3 hours, so it's like you get maybe 2-3 hours of content a day. I'm still having fun but still...
I feel like ToF is the game normal people think Genshin is. There's a lot of 'extra' in every aspect of the ToF, but Genshin is a lot more tame in comparison.
Additionally, ToF is probably what Genshin would turn into if hoyoverse listened to its hardcore audience.
why does this game always look so fuzzy.
Artistic choice
Smarr indie dev prease understandu

its funny how bad the guys look in this compared to the girls
Not only that, but most of the animations/movements of the weapons are so girly (as most are designed with female characters you get from the gacha in mind) and it's shared between both genders. They clearly didn't think this through.
Made a new char on a different server just to change my gender. Thought I did a decent job of making a male MC but as soon as he started moving and talking I regretted it immediately.
I played a bit earlier today. Good stuff.
Trying to play now, I’m in a queue of 800. Ouch.

Bros, the 1 button combat and phone game menus and gacha shit is really killing this game for me, I can't go for more than 5 minutes before I have a sudden urge to alt+f4 and for some reason it feels very much like genshin, like it's a literal clone, there's even a fricking not-paimon fml.
Why would you play this fricking shit instead of just getting any random generic JRPG from the last decade that has that same soulless 3D look with the same fonts/menus and doesn't charge you $20 a pop to gamble for weapons?

Me too. This game isn't ground breaking but frick it, it's good for some laughs and adventures. I hope the dev team gets some success and a lot of experience from this, because it feels like there's a solid game underneath the roughness. Maybe ToF2 will blow us away.

That's even worse because it means you have to scour the map multiple times over.
I can understand that, personally though it would give another reason keep exploring places you've been which sounds nice to me

My wife has trouble climbing ladders
Jesus, this is like the 10th time I've seen someone have trouble climbing the ladders in this game KEK
so it's just extremely janky genshin then
yeah a little Id assume its probs cuz its more online focused your ping actually matters while genshin if you are not playing with anyone its basically smooth?
What's funny is that genshin doesn't technically have ladders; just flat planes with ladder textures that you climb the same as any other surface (which means if you don't jump straight up it your character can wrap around and start climbing the back of the ladder).
It seems that ladder technology is still beyond the Chinese.
why would it need additional complexity for something irrelevant that is expressed perfectly with the existing complexity
>for something irrelevant that is expressed perfectly
Because, as I mentioned, it's not perfect. It's less janky than ToF's ladders, but still doesn't work as well as basic ass ladders from OoT back in 1998.
There is too much content
I am burnt out

No, it's Jinako.

They are labeled as version numbers, that should be enough to tell you everything.
Ok anon. What CPU are you using? x8086? Did you buy all of them up to i10? moron
What a flat out brain damaged Black person trying to be some pseud intellectual.
If we play along with your sarcastic analogy you forgot the part where you'd leave the inbetweens for later purchase and still see them as stat upgrades.
Anon you are the moron here
Lets look at this scenario:
A copper sword, 1g
An Iron sword: 9999999g
A HF Blade: 10000000g
Now, you start off with a copper sword, and you happen to kill enough shit to get yourself 10000000g, why the frick would you buy an iron sword then, when you can literally purchase a better, HF Blade?
True, but my bad didn't realize you were autistic and you were looking from it at this angle, one look at the upgrade sequence in game should tell you its not a fricking shop but upgrades built onto the last.
You want to argue about whos moronic here but you could not grasp a simple 1 way upgrade tree somehow.
Ok this is bullshit
In genshin you cant just flat out buy artifacts
but here you can literally buy matrices and pay to win
i'll probably drop it after a week

you don't have to side with either of them
mad CCP super mad with MHY since they cant control them
Then why does Genshin keep getting censored to shit?
Cuz China reviews their own rules regarding "sexy content" almost twice a year, it doesnt apply to only genshin impact but every work or gacha out there. Last time it happened a lot faster cuz three different communities reported girls frontline to the CCP and it ended up with Mica removing damaged arts from the Chinese vers. Meanwhile other "much more cooming" games like Azur Lane had ships removed too(like Taihou). So chinese devs now develo two different assets one for china one for their global audience, genshin had the drama with Rosaria, meanwhile games like Azur Lane had few ships litteraly removed from the game.
Black what in the goddamn frick
That is literally how the chinese have done business for 20 years, actually.

I only briefly used Chakram girl's skin before deciding I liked my created character better. I'd consider using other characters if they let you set them to a given weapon instead.
Sure wish the player character's mouth moved when they talked, though. And speaking of talking, the player character's personality is completely schizophrenic with how different it is between the main story and sidequests.
letting you set an appearance to each weapon would be such a no brainer idk how they missed it.
>I'd consider using other characters if they let you set them to a given weapon instead.
I don't understand. From what I see, skins and weapons are totally independent. For example I'm using the Pepper skin (the medic SR) with other weapons and without using her weapon at all.
this is such a misstep/bad idea/just complete failure of devs
people are so attached to the characters in genshin and they just made characters totally not matter and weapons be the thing you "want"
LOL...one thing i can't stand is when people have a road map in front of them and still frick up, ie. starbound is a good example. this is just sad
>"do we want people to think of our characters like they do Mona or Zhongli?"
>no, we want them to think of THUNDERING STAFF
Yeah I was thinking about this before, how this system works and how they even advertise the "characters" has the weapon name be put first and foremost. Ridiculous as it will undeniably hurt people giving a shit about their characters.
Imagine this in genshin, caring about the bennet lad? Nah my wife is the wielder of ULTIMATE BUFFER SWORD 2000 and not a thought to its original owner.
Yes, anon. That's the problem. You set one skin in the menu and that's it. That's the only skin you use until you go into the menu and set a different skin.
What I'd rather they do is let you set it so skin is tied to a weapon, so you can use character 1 with weapon A, character 2 with weapon B, and character 3 with weapon C. You'd be able to swap characters without going back to the menu, and use a specific character with their weapon.
how could they get this wrong?
the game already has all the functionality in place for you to "swap characters" like genshin and that'd be so much infinitely more satisfying than just changing weapons
like........how do you make the wrong decision here
>What I'd rather they do is let you set it so skin is tied to a weapon, so you can use character 1 with weapon A, character 2 with weapon B, and character 3 with weapon C. You'd be able to swap characters without going back to the menu, and use a specific character with their weapon.
I think they just cannot implement character model switching without too much jankiness. Their technique level isn't enough
nonsense
say what you want, but none of these clones can ever compare to the feel of botw
genshin feels cheap, this one feels cheap and janky with severe lack of polish
botw had a lot of effort and care put into it, and no other game has yet to copy the feeling of awe and wonder when you explore the overworld
>no other game has yet to copy the feeling of awe and wonder when you explore the overworld
nah, don’t get me wrong I don’t play gacha trash but I never understood this meme. Botw is such a forced meme, completely empty boring overworld, nothing of substance to do. it has a charming art style, Zelda nostalgia and that’s it. there was no “awe”. the most fun thing to do in that game is windsail.
I'd say shield surfing was more fun that the windsailing but it has the problem of destroying your shield
That awe and wonder evaporates instantly after an hour or two when you realized 99% of any actual rewards you obtain are dupe weapons or another fricking seed. Like, oh wow, another weapon I'm not going to loot because my inventory is already full of it or better stuff. BotW's 'wonder and awe' factor is severally over exaggerated by people who didn't actually play the game beyond a handful of hours.

The timegating isnt that bad honestly every game all the reterds play gates you in some way, god you fricks dont remember early genshin do you how you basically had to do dailies day to day if you didnt have events to fill the XP gaps or most MMO's restricting how much of an item of currency you can get. its no different than this apart from being a bit more in your face. what do i expect from v/tards
Genshin didn't lock world exploration behind an arbitrary time gate system. Games usually lock equipment or other character power systems behind an energy or time gate. That's normal. Locking actual world exploration and generally insignificant in the overall power level scope of things behind a forced time gate, that's absurd and not nearly the same thing. The bending over backwards to forgive the game this is fricking hilarious.
I dont even play this game but genshin locked more than just exploration behind paywalls or timegates with resin and weekly fights so i think it all adds up. also genshin had no plans to release with Liyue added from the start but added it in later once they saw how dumb and small the game was. so unless there is more to tower licking stuff than just time locks? i dont see it as a bad thing like frick just make an account and dont play for a week you all have other things you can do.
You're acting like ToF doesn't have the same time locks for gear, leveling, materials, etc that Genshin add. It ALSO locks all world exploration as well. Even when you expended you're energy and shit in Genshin, you could go grind out enemy materials and explore the content you did have. You can't even do that bare minimum here. "Yeah, just don't play the game in order to allow yourself to be able to play the game" is the most fricking backward ass logic I've heard. If fine if you like the game, but don't try to spin it like this is some normal mechanical feature every game has. This is excessive by any measure of the genre.
>I dont even play this game but genshin locked more than just exploration behind paywalls or timegates with resin and weekly fights so i think it all adds up
genshin doesn't lock anything behind resin gates except rerunning the same challenge in a room. the entire world, ie the actual content, is never locked

lol, this game has been out for a year in china...and you are calling development polish. it needs more development, this is feels very beta
The writing is completely fricking inept, holy shit. Haven't played it today yet but I finished available shit yesterday. also loading screen spoiled that sick girl became the Nemesis? amazing
Yeah it's seriously terrible from these first two days' worth of story content. You have zero time to get attached to Shirli or anyone else before everything goes to shit. It then races through a bunch of locations and events with minimal explanation so within two hours you're already solving the mystery of your lost memories and past. It briefly introduces time travel and then promises to explain it later and sends you off to another location where you meet a kid who says ten lines and then you have to watch him tragically die except it isn't tragic at all because once again you barely just met the fricker.
And that's not even touching the horribly edited script where the flow of the conversations is just awful, it's like every single line was translated in a vacuum.

Get your eyes checked, better yet dunk entire head into hydrochloric acid infront of your loved ones after strapping them to chairs and forcing their eyes open so they can watch and hear your agony as the chemicals eat away your flesh and you embrace the monster you've become.
Unthinking.
Unfeeling.
Become the ultimate warrior and eat gamerfood.
dupes are good moron
the game has constellations and some weapons are shit without their 1* effect
not if you dont like the weapon you got a dupe for though.
>playing a gacha without any tiddies in it
>ask for tiddies
>posts low poly ass
even in that departmend I got you beat
The masturbation must have made you go blind because there were huge breasts in that image too.
Been playing for a couple of hours, the game is pure fricking jank lol.
However I gotta admit the story is way better than Genshin. It's nothing special, but atleast it isn't a boring slog with people talking paragraphs of text without 0 important information like genshin does all the time. The broken english they got makes the story more easy to understand since they only use 1 or 2 sentences to get the point across.
Yeah; I can't tell how much of the combat is fidgety because of my shit internet or how much of it is just not very polished, but the introduction clearly communicated the world, introduced a bunch of concepts without too much infodumping and gave you characters to get invested in.
Not to mention this is the closest we're getting to a good Phantasy Star Online 2 successor for now. I'm willing to give serial numbers filed off science-fantasy adventure the benefit of the doubt.
Now if only they'd fricking give me back my pure and innocent cinnamon roll. 27 pulls so far.
>gave you characters to get invested in.
you're capable of getting invested in ugly, throwaway characters like that?
Compared to Genshin where the sibling literally doesn't fricking show up for two continents after being like supposed to be "the most important thing"? Yeah, it's kinda easy.
I get it, it's cliche, but the anguished loving older brother with a dark past fits nicely with the naive and friendly girl catching space aids and I'm looking forward to seeing robocop again sometime soon; though preferably in an SSR roll.

? genshin throws characters like amber, lisa, klee, diluc, jean, kaeya, venti, etc at you at the very beginning though

you actually didn't skip every possible sequence? :
trying to act like this game has anything going for it when genshin is somehow lacking, in regard to things like characters, is just cringe contrarianism
>bUt Ur SibLiNg
no he just prefers it you moron learn to have an opinion.
where do i spend my vitality points?
There's another question
Can you complete the quest that requires VIT?
>fight normal difficulty boss solo available today
>dude is dropping multiple 5k ranged hits on me
how the frick do you beat this
apparently you have to be good at dodging and eating behind cover while running and gunning. the missiles go through/around walls tho and hit you anyway. good luck meleegays.
why did they give mi-a such a shapely ass?
>mihoyo designers looking at finished picture of paimon
>"we did it. with her cute demeanor and diaper-like dress, we saved paimon from sexualization."
>game launches
>within 2 hours 150 fanarts of using paimon like a fleshlight
what do i do about the musical platforms near the ring of echos?
>make serious, cold looking character
>immediately ruined because they give her nerdy ass ochako's voice
this is why silent protagonists are a good thing
How good's Cuervo?
>typical literal mobile game tier gacha with anticheat spyware
>LOOK LOOK YOU CAN MAKE FEMBOY HITLER IN IT THOUGH
I'm going insane with how repetitive these transparent and blatent tactics to shill games on here. I am the only real poster here.
>countless limitations imposed on the game to make it work as an mmo
>0 people at world boss on day 2
huh?
there's a world boss?
There are three actually in the playable area right now.
i'll look for them i guess
>people run out of stamina doing their things
>people are filtered by timegated exploration and grind
>log out
>or just unistall
>WHY NO ONE IS ACTUALLY PLAYING THE GAME?!
Switch channel (not server). Ask in chat if they're raiding a boss and then ask where the channel is
there's a 30 min cd on switching channels. now im stuck without a group.
You can change for free if you have team members on other channel.
>that globohomosexual GUI
>level caps
damn, even genshit is better
let's see how it goes
Is Pepper good? I got her but haven't used her staff thing at all.
not him but i have her staff at 2 stars. it's really fun but does pitiful damage and the healing isn't that great.
i wonder if its like bow where the ssr version has the exact same moveset as the sr version except far better.
I've got Coco and Pepper's staffs, the moveset is the same, and the special move is similar (Pepper's healing field is stationary, Coco's follows the caster).
I havent compared the awakenings step by step though
do you find coco good? i'm going to have to decide between her and the shield girl for my pick your own ssr box because all 4 of my ssr rolls ended up being nothing i cared for.
I havent played with her much, but she seems like she might just be an ice flavored upgrade to Pepper.
Can't say how her awakenings compare since I haven't upgraded her stars yet
the SSR dual daggers are insane compared to the basic pair you get and bai ling's bow can kill most hyena minions with one good charged shot, thought kinda sucks as a physical damage weapon
it was harder than i figured, but there were several people there too so it went well. loot was kind of shit. also i discovered you cant heal people unless they're in a party with you?
very mid. im just playing her because i always play healers. i did decent healing in a dungeon earlier though. 40k healing? just spam arrows and switch to your healing weapon's ult for aoe heals.
i didnt know you could duel
This game sucks balls. See you guys in two weeks for Sumeru. The wait is nearly over.
how do you get up there
