wow!

most games people like, whether conveyor belt based like factorio, or trade route based like Stronghold, Anno, Setterlers, cities skylines, openTTD, etc. have SHOCKINGLY flat resource trees

and from the little I saw of Arknights 2, they were not doing that

im not saying its super flat but from what ive seen it seems pretty basic

and it's a sinking feeling with a gacha, that it's going to be a time sink without any sort of satisfying payoff

which to me, just comes off as a chore

its most likely going to be the equivalent of doing your quest or grinding mats in any other gacha

except instead youre playing factorio and doing clash of clans-tier wait 12 hours

which i have absolutely zero interest in too

I liked the basic tower defense gameplay of 1, I thought it was a good fit for a gacha this gives me serious concerns about the sequel

that + you still have to run around and """explore""" and pickup resources

^

I am curious to see what out-of-touch chinese slaves make

when told to emulate factorio

I think that's genuinely going to be interesting

because like you, I don't think they'll get how to make it fun and not tedious

i had a little interest before in this game but ive lost all interest now

I've been giving every gacha a try at the very least

but if they can't be played fast paced

I'm out

the stupid dress up one Max, there are unskippble micro-cutscenes when you perform pretty much any action

fuck that

starfield

sorry have to sit in my ship

Starfield had their shitty Factorio machanic too!

ok Max

Obsidians secret fallout game

turns out to be a gacha

can a non-weeb gacha even succeed

no

cookie run kingdom is the closest

but thats still korean

coookie run is pretty massive

though mostly with women and children

seeing adult women talk about their sexual fantieis with these anthromorphised cookies is something

I had no idea it looked like this

I just assume all mobile games are either weebshit or look like clash of clans

i mean like spooky

?

maybe not blackie

but that trump cookie in the top left

you know making a gacha aimed at kids

is pretty ddiabolical

"mommy can I have 10 dolllars to spend on coookie runnn"

the amount little kids spend on vbucks is also crazy

those $50 and $100 cards in the store are always selling through

my autistic stepbrother for like 3 years straight

spent every christmas and birthday money

on vbucks

(my dad now uses his account)

so it was likea reinvestment

that account unironically probably has 1k+ of skins

Yeah, I guess valve kind of got me when I was young too, buying stuff in tf2

All I know about Cookie Run Kingdom is an autist telling us the lore is sick and twisted.

and like kirby

peak tf2 game night

I dropped the 1st game specifically because i did not like just playing a tower defense game. It might be samey but i just like the 3rd person action combat, no matter how many different games i've played that are that. and i also like the running around exploring stuff. it was my favorite part of genshin and wuwa, and was the best part of BOTW and TOTK. now the factory stuff idk. I am not a factorio fan, i always get bored after an hour or two. I dont like trying to make some efficient factory production line, it just doesnt scratch anything for me. So i might be the odd one out, but i actually would hope the factory stuff in AK Endfield is just a basic thing you dont have to think about very much.

>best part of botw thats a weird way to describe the eventide island and master sword trials

those were good but not my favorite parts so yes i rank the general exploration better than those experiences on their own.

@Spooky Phijkchu would you play a bloons gacha

i think if bloons made a gacha itd do good

Would you pull for monkeys?

Idk if I'd really get invested in looking at monkeys

you already can pull for monkeys in btd6

lootboxes or whatever

theyre giving them himecuts though

because the amount of people suddenly drawing porn of them

new expansion apparently

the pity pack point system can only be used on the expansion the pack was pulled in

same pack

why did they make heads an 80% chance in this update

Haven't played, only opened packs so far and got shit

As a Misty enjoyer that's great news
