Birthday girl pantsu
I thought the franchise was doing very well Did I mix it up with some other ancient all girl battle franchise
>>50084509That's Ikki Tousen
Kimura from Cygames also EoS'ed...End of an era...
https://youtu.be/Jn1QqgOhHW0?si=SRXePwGTRQqFTlT7When did LLLL become so sexy
>>50084591Pantsu?
>>50084519I was thinking Queen's BladeI think it is still getting new installment
>>50085498Looks like I am wrong on that alsoThe newest manga series EoS'ed December
#COMPASS has more peak yuri! Did you see new sexy yuri girls!? Oh yeah!!
This is getting pathetic
Am I getting this right? Azur Promilia previously had the girls in spats, but they changed their mind and now they're wearing pantsu instead?
>>50088070Last I heard they use both in the game.
>>50088392It's so weird
Which will die first: D4DJ or WDS?
>>50089047You
If Bushiroad could offload D4DJ to Donuts, why couldn't KLab sell Lapis?
>>50089502Kadokawa and Victor own LapisKlab is the devUsing D4DJ as an analogy it would be Kadokawa and Victor selling Lapis to KLab
Pole Princess only announced a new album and a BD for the 2nd Live...
>>50090354It doesn't look like something popular enough to get a game
>>50091047Maybe popular enough for an anime
I honestly think it's amazing that there are people who spend money on kusoges so that they can continue to provide service.Everyone has their own way of spending money, but I think people who can spend tens of thousands of yen on social games where the characters will eventually become useless are really mentally unsound.
>>50091870It's still better than spending on Only Fans
>>50091870>there are people who actually defending whaling on games that will be totally unplayable one day, claiming "YOLO" and "at least you got to experience it"
>>50089527Lapis was a KLab and Kadokawa project. JVC Kenwood Victor is the music producer, anon.
>>50092501Klab didn't do shiteven outsourced the game to Shenqu
>>50093234They were the ones paying for everything they did alongside Kadokawa, which isn't much, but it is a contributing act. Also, technically they solely own the IP/Trademarks.
>>50093366So Klab could have sold Lapis to Shengqu?
>>50093394I don't think KLab wouldn't give away their IP that easily.
>>50093366>>50093394>>50093418I thought the whole point of Lapis was that KLab wanted an idol franchise of their own instead of being Bushiroad's bitch with SIF.
>>50093844It's more than that. It's KLab trying their foot with original IP. Remember their other original IP in Magatsu Warheit?
>>50093858Which also crashed and burned. I still can't believe the game died so soon after the anime ended.
>>50085648do they not have a song or just unlucky? also did not get them only 2 collab costume for different characters
>>50094511Their song is the first OP of Pop Team Epic, Pop Team Epic.
>>50093418They could have done a D4DJ and sold it to another company, like how Bushiroad sold D4DJ to Donuts. That might be complicated though considering Lapis's entire reason for existence was for KLab to have its own original IP.
>>50096250Donuts are the developers of Groovy Mix from the start, anon
God Fumika is so hot in the new outfit.
>>50096485Nice!
>>50095086just unlucky then 20+ matches with every other person theme
Why is the monthly in gakumas 2k yen
>>50096725Need the collab hero for the collab theme to play even if you are not playing the hero. Also, if you are new, you can just reroll your account for easy collab hero pull.
>>50097018nyot quite new but not my old account…
>>50096740It sucks.Less gems than buying packs.Accessories suck. All the good costumes are gem only anyway.Only one fucking Note.
>>50098489What costumes have pantsu
Imagine what would happen if, many years into the future, Genshin EoS'd
>>50103380Before what?
>>50103559Before what?

>>50107473Congrats!
#COMPASS anons, what do you think of the cards this collab? Not sure if I should roll a bit more to get them. They're unique but unsure if they are worth.
Today I learned Tower of Fantasy is still alive
>>50108974I've got all except for the red UR card but I've only used the blue UR card.>Blue URIt seams alright. I've used it with PopuPipi and the instant heal is nice but the healing area is quite small and the healing effect doesn't feel that great>Green URA poor man's Momon. I'd rather just have a dedicated attack, defence or movement speed buff card instead of a weaker version of the three.>Red URThe radius for buffing your allies is pretty small but it's basically the normal defence buffs with a 2s shorter duration and a 4s shorter cooldown. It'll be useful if you typically run defence cards.Overall I don't think the URs are worth going out of your way for. The blue SR is actually a pretty decent card if you can cope with the SR stats. It is a ranged card but the lifesteal is frontloaded so it's basically the Hestia UR with much more range.
It would be a funny day in /mbgg/ if Compass actually died. Not that it's gonna happen anytime soon, but still.
>>50112806Before what?
>>50112878Genshin, ZZZ, HSR, etc.
>>50109763Tower of Fantasy made too much money on release
>>50112806It's likely it will make it to the 10 year club at least. Taking revenue estimates at face value, its first two years were top by a considerable margin but it still pulls a pretty consistent amount of money. They just need to pull out the right collabs and they should be fine.NHN still considers it one of their flagship games and apparently Q4 2024 was a record for quarterly revenue.
>>50112979Even if it does die, it is almost certain to have some kind of offline version so it won't be totally dead like the vast majority of games these days.
>>50114433Not with those collabs
>>50114508They could just remove those from the offline version. Others have done that before.

How come Ririsa's game is still alive and Aster Tatariqus is dead, when the latter had a better start?
>>50127880because Ririsa is in D4DJ now
>>50128792Not like D4DJ is going to be alive much longer anyway.

#COMPASS had a BBQ today
>>50139898Blame the Compass posting showing up even in the middle of unrelated discussions

>>50147284That's how slower boards are, the idea that high thread speed is somehow a positive is a third world retard mindset hence why it thrives on /a/, /v/, /pol/ etc
>>50146246>>50146431So it's censored by the CCP?
>>50146246The comments here http://yaraon-blog.com/archives/284589 say the devs are Japanese, I can't find a source though.
When is that digimon yuri card game dropping? Kind of getting tired of Gakumas with its recent focus on P love.

I still feel that if Lapis wasn't given to Shengqu, it might have lasted longer. Who knows if it would still be alive today, but it probably would have at least made it to its first birthday.
https://youtu.be/zxWfCmiDJcwThis is the month of Twisted. Will Twisted save /mbgg/?
>>50167457Lapis' fate is just sad. Pretty much all of the newbies they hired never made it, which is like half of all the girls. 2/3 of my favourite unit never made it.
I did do a few pulls to get those UR I was missing this collab. Even though I was advised they weren't must haves. They seemed like pretty unique cards and I coouldn't help myself. Got everything without using too many pulls though.
>>50167457>>50168006saw a nipponese yuri fan still seething about the male sensei yesterday

Project N will save us
>>50170157Really? It's been about four years since KLab ended the project, and yet these Yuri fans are still salty of what it truly is?
>>50172375The entire fan base of Lapis has been yurifags They should have scrapped that parallel concept once they realized that
>>50172469>entire fan baseMore like fans of the 2020 anime alone. If they were there from the start, they would've fucked off completely.
>>50172662Tough shit, there was nothing else aside from the anime.Shengqu also had to change the name of the game to one of the song titles in case the Chinese fans of the anime find out the game.
Why do you keep butting in with Compass whenever people talk about other games?
>>50172219What is it about? Does it have pantsu?
>>50175036Senran Kagura New Link sequel3 years later, two characters grew up to be JK and enroll in a new school This is furthest we have come in the franchise between Nintendo timeline and Sony timelineSo sort of sequel to everything?
>>50175289I'm surprised the franchise is still alive.
>>50176390Yumi single handedly can sustain the franchise
You guys playing アンベイル ザ ワールド or do you only come here to shitpost about compass?
>>50176867I only play yuri games like Senran Kagura
>>50176867No, haven't even heard of it before. Should've shilled it sooner. Shilling on the release date feels very low-effort shilling and lessens the hype.
>>50176867It doesn't look like it has any strong points.
Stella Sora is out
>>50180798I cannot for the life of me imagine why they released the game on Monday morning in Japan. I can't be arsed to check time zones, but it released pretty late in the evening here in Burgerstan. I downloaded it and did at least enough to finish the dailies for today, it seems pretty deep. It's a Hades clone, which is a concept that really surprised me. I just wanted something to fill my time until Codename Cedar drops, but I might keep playing it.
>>50180798>>50181029Pantsu?
It's alright. Visibility in combat is atrocious, there are only 2 story chapters (not that I read any of it), levelling your account is horrendously slow + you get level gated basically right away, the buffs generally just seem to equate to deal more damage and nothing is challenging at this stage though it is very early on. None of the characters really stand out design-wise either.>>50181029It released at 11:00 Jap time>>50181038They probably are on the models but nothing I've spotted in-game so far
>>50181473No one has posted pics yet?
https://x.com/lifurafa82A hero that we needed
No chance Stella Sora improves
>>50181618too busy drama posting
I'd imagine, if it was worth playing, someone would've posted the gameplay by now.
>>50182999Just google it
>>50181618No one plays game here. Better try /vgm/.
>>50184459We play games here
>>50181473Reached player level 11 and blocked from doing anything else, overall it's not that great and seems like it released a year too early.In terms of gacha it seems pretty shitty. They've basically copied the Hoyo model but added in two currencies to split weapon and character banners. They also doubled the cost of rolls compared to CBT but didn't adjust the income.Can't comment on the quality of the story because I skipped everything. It's unvoiced with basic VN-style scenes. There's also character stories and other bits of lore. There is a date/invite system (text only) but the dialogue is the same for every character.Gameplay largely consists of walking around in a circle and spamming your choice of 1 (one) skill per character once they're off cooldown and then using your ultimates on a boss after breaking their armour. The buffs you get generally equate to more damage and don't seem to offer any interesting changes to the gameplay. There are a few different modes but half of them are still locked and the others involve repeating very similar content with different enemies. Ultimately, the gameplay doesn't change much and it's just not that interesting or difficult outside of massive level differences. Visibility still sucks ass.The game already seems very grindy in terms of how many materials you need to build a unit but at least you can sweep the farming stages. The game also clearly wants you to have full teams, or at least a main DPS unit, built for each of the 6 elements.Character designs are forgettable and the L2D for their sprites is poor. You can also get character skins but they don't change the in-game 3D model.The level gating is insane to the point where you are left waiting for stamina and the daily reset after a few hours. You get player XP from dailies and spending stamina only. Game modes, difficulties and the ability to keep upgrading your characters are locked behind the player level. You level up, you can do maybe one or two new difficulties (which play the same as before but enemies have more HP). You might unlock a new mode but the recommended level is too high and you can't upgrade your units any further because your player level is too low. You run out of shit to do instantly and the shit you can do is a rehash of the previous shit.tldr dark days ahead for Stella Sora. Thank you for coming to my review.
>>50185208>unvoiced>timegate>increased roll costs>battle pass "skin" is a 2D wallpaper>nameswap copypaste affinity sceneskek almost 24h and the game's social hubs are all on suicidewatch for a dev response
>>50185208the main problem I have is that the most fun and most suvivor-like mode is the fucking tower which the game just treats as an easy throwaway thing that you're supposed to get out of the way.
>>50185428Have you unlocked Cataclysm Survivor yet? I've never played VS but I'd guess that's the most similar mode. It's very basic though
>Compass anon is still shilling Compass and butting in when people are in the middle of discussions about other games.>>50185208>unvoicedSo they lacked budget to pay the VAs? That sounds like a disaster already.>>50185261What do you think will die first: Abyssdia or Stella Sora?
>>50186226>lacked budgetMore like they just want to copy how cheap BA was, down to the lack of voice acting and expected to dig up another gold mine.
>>50186465Damn this is complete trash compared to the actual Dissidia gameplay.
>>50186226abyssdia 100%it's easier to imagine nothing happens and a small minority give in to yostarthose higher prices will keep their already ultra slim game alive as they commission art to pull in suckers
I still see people seething about Sensei in Lapis to this day. Are people really that bitter about him?
>>50189244The problem with Lapis is that there are actual plans to add sensei in the game from the start based on the pre-release info but they decided to make the anime yuri anyway. This made the expectations different since the animecwas released first.
Chaos Zero Nightmare is out. I'm not interested in this one but the servers appear to have shit the bed anyway.Duet Night Abyss on the 28th and Resonance Solstice on the 29th. After that it's back to the drought
>>50190583Do any of them have pantsu?
>>50190583It feels like an indie game on DMM with an expensive voice cast. Still waiting to see if Yostar fixes their game.
>>50190661Play them and find out>>50190702Halving pull costs and issuing compensation for SS would be an easy five minute fix but the rest of the game still feels completely lacking. Sadly that can't be fixed quite so fast.
>>50190702>Yostar fixes their gameBy spending money for more fanart commissions? Maybe.
>>50190729So inorganic
>>50190729>By spending money for more livestreams.ftfy.
>>50193805Come to think they haven't done the usual shilling streams with big name vtubers. Is their budget that tight?
>>50193909Well...
>>50194048Had they picked someone I watch, I might've given it a chance.
>>50194048funny how all the males mostly look normal with ordinary clothes and dull hair colors.then you see the female with triple colored hair and unrealistic clothes which ends up making her look like a clown in a lineup.
>>50194217I'd much rather take her over the dorito chin brigade
>>50190583Apparently gooks are going nuts over just about everything, they're seeing both "the finger" and AI in the art, and also apparently there's NTR in the story as wellLmao
>>50195295If you think a male appearing in the story is NTR, sure.
>Three gacha games released this month>Bored while waiting for them so picked up a DMM game on a whim while I waited>The DMM game ended up the game I'm enjoying the mostWell that's real fucking sad.
>>50180798Gameplay in Stella Sora is okay. It's very mindless and casual to the point where it's like a simpler and watered down Shironeko/Dragalia where your character attacks automatically and your other two characters in the team are demoted to buttons you press for abilities.They also copied the Blue Archive artstyle and other things shamelessly but didn't even have the courtesy to add some cute young girls and everything is just big tits everywhere while the few young girls are relegated to supports you don't even see in game.Yostar really fucked up most things though because the monetization is atrocious, it has a hoyo gacha but no hoyo guarantee so you can and most likely will lose your 50/50 several times in a row while building that pity. On top of the hoyo gacha there's constellations, weapon gacha, weapon refinements and all the hoyo stinkers.There's other really awful shit too like skins being just PNGs for your homescreen, character dates being generic and copypasted across every character, gacha income being nearly nonexistent and you just really have to wonder what the fuck were they thinking or if they pushed this out knowing that just having the Yostar name and the BA artstyle would hard carry the game.>>50190583CZN is also kinda struggling. The gameplay is good, like REALLY fucking good. The roguelike gameplay mode is amazing and I honestly could play that shit for hours since they really nailed the deckbuilder aspect perfectly. It's an actual roguelike for once instead of pretending to be one like all the other crap that releases.But it's struggling because it's a niche game by a nicher company. The translation quality is atrociously bad and good luck figuring out all those keywords without an ingame glossary, especially when the translator might have used three different words for the same mechanic which hurts the enjoyment of it. It also features a hoyo gacha but implemented properly because you get enough beginner currency to pop your pities once or twice and the 50/50 guarantee is actually there unlike with Stella Sora.The designs are also mediocre as fuck too with only a few characters that are okay but this feels like a self-inflicted problem because there's a lot of really great NPCs then the playables or leaked playables are plain awful or generic dime a dozen crap.Thankfully they nailed the gameplay so there's reasons to play it but if every upcoming character's design continues to be mediocre then there's already an easy reason to uninstall.
>>50196775I want to like czn but the pc version looks very blurry and low quality on my screen
>>50196939Weird, that's not a problem i've heard before. The usual issue seems to be people crashing when using the mindbreak cards and that gets fixed by reinstalling since it's caused by corrupted data.Have you tried checking the settings and seeing if it's using low quality options?
>>50196953Meh thanks but I already uninstalled
>>50196775Stella Sora has pantsu but what about CZN?
>>50193909>4 nights nowis the budget actually tight???
>>50199633>Have money to hire VAs to do those pointless streams for 4 days straight>Can't be ass to use that money to actually fully voice the dam game.Have their priority straight I guess.
>>50199803Yostar won't fix shit because people will slurp it up. People were enraged at how bad the game was day1 but now everyone has reached acceptance and decided to just stick to it and spend on it because everyone else is playing.If anything, Stella Sora just proved (again) that marketing and advertising is everything. If you market your game as the next biggest thing then you can keep everyone playing your game even if it's the stinkiest turd ever purely through FOMO and peer pressure.Thinking of what if Colopl added a *worse* hoyo gacha without guarantees, constellation systems and made it so that monthly income is just 10 rolls legitimately makes me laugh because it's just so bad.
>>50199848They have given themselves a lot of room where even a half step back will look substantial. I'm not sure a half step would be enough for me to stick around. People already spending after being given a free 10 roll is funny however.
>>50199848When was the last time a hyped/super shilled new IP mobage actually EoS'd?
>>50200459Tribe Nine?
>>50200526I don't think tribe nine was super shilled though, the makers were pretty unknown. Meanwhile Stella Sora is by yostar, it could (and is) be the stinkiest piece of shit ever and still be a smashing hit purely due to the Yostar branding and them shamelessly copying Blue Archive's style which gets the average idiot to associate it with BA and also leverage Blue Archive's branding.Actual, real proof that marketing and branding is more important these days than anything else.
>>50200748The amount of effort they put into that IP far exceeded of what Yostar has been doing to Stella. Anime, webtoon, stage play, but since the IP flopped most of it got cancelled, the usual fate of multi media marketing.Compare to Yostar, what they even did to shill that game? Pretty much all the hype was coming from the uninformed yostar fans who think their god and savior is going to shit out another ground breaking masterpiece.Like you said the branding was what attracted people attention to that game in the first place, Yostar didn't even need to lift a finger to do the prerelease marketing.

There was a Compass news stream earlier today that included the announcement of the next original hero, Meloonya Lancerna, who will be added after maintenance on the 29th. She is a gunner from the same universe as Stellea and Lovey.Her hero ability lets her summon up to 5 spirits. Each spirit increases her normal attack/hero action damage and deals an additional, weaker attack to enemies hit with normal attacks. The spirits will deal attribute damage.Her hero action fires off an attack with variable range but it can go extremely far. The number of projectiles corresponds to the number of spirits she has active.Her hero skill does two things. If you have less than 5 spirits, using it will summon another one. If you have 5 spirits, using it will fire a long range beam that does instakill damage (unsure if it goes through 100% shields - probably not).Using her beam will consume one spirit but death has no impact on the number of them. All of her card casting speeds look pretty unremarkable so her best decks will likely focus on survivability and defence debuffs.Preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5ks8ImePoMIn other news, the SAO collab will be rerun from the 30th to the 5th of November and November's season is themed on Tesla.That is likely everything until the anniversary in December. I'm placing my bets on a Frieren collab as that seems to happily whore itself out to every game.
>>50206936Still a bit confused about her mechanic. Not too sure how she accumulate spirits, the only source I see is HS. Looks to be a purely auto-attacker. Maybe she is a gunner Marcos.
>>50207470You just need to use her hero skill. One use = +1 spirit

Man I wish we had more games with fun storiesIt feels most gacha stories either suck gigantic ass, are boring slice of life stuff or are just misery porn
>>50209787Weird way to spell ***!
>>50209833What constitutes a "fun story"? Feels like there'd be quite some overlap with "boring slice of life stuff".
>>50209861Something in the middle like a lot of visual novels.Not overly depressing with someone dying on screen or suffering miserably every chapter to show how the game is for deep and mature audiences but also not devoid of anything happening and it's just the characters having their perfect daily life where nothing ever happens or changes.
>>50209875>nothing ever happensThe common route can be boring too.
>>50210028By nothing ever happens I meant the statuos quo never changes. Maybe the characters will go out and do something but wacky hijinks forces them to start 1 and by the end of the story it's like nothing happened. The story didn't progress, the characters didn't grow, nobody ever mentions it again and it was just like a side story.
>>50210045So... A typical event story? An entire game of event stories...? Eh.
>>50210080Huh? What? I said I didn't like that.I mean I want something in the middle instead of either extreme like reading a normal visual novel where there's the common route, some conflict in the middle and resolution without having to murder and torture half the cast along the way.
>>50209875So like D4DJ Groovy Mix?
>>50209875You should play trickcal. Its just undiluted soul and fun, kinda like season 2 of dog days.
>>50210285Trickcal looks and sounds like it falls perfectly into the cute SOL game where nothing ever happens category.>>50210258A rhythm game?
>>50210291The story is pretty bonkers
>>50210291>cute SOL game where nothing ever happens categoryWrong. Stuff happens, is just that the story has fun while it happens. But it does has some pretty serious moments, or rather emotional moments, because of the contrast of cute and silly to serious.https://youtu.be/pnQfr1NkLlw
>>50210291Not going to lie, I did got teary eyed at Ui story. Her mom abandoned her sisters and her, and put a spell of eternal sleep on them. Ui woke up and got so depressed that she wiped her own memories and cast a curse on herself, that she would be physically unable to feel any emotion expect happiness, its very fucked up.https://youtu.be/jg_4aOyusSQHer VA did this song which is very cute too.
>>50209875HBD taught me there's nothing worse than a good story gatekept by terrible gateway.
>>50210694*HBR
>>50210694>>50210730HBR anime when?
>>50212853Never. But at least TWST anime this month.
#COMPASS rave
If it weren't for the male MC, would BRS still be alive today?
>>50214672No it was a shit game overall and the BR series has a small fanbase in the first place.
https://x.com/smile_channel25/status/1982718533638508722Where is Lapis
Happy 13th anniversary, Girl Friend Beta.>>50215076At least Project Tokyo Dolls is there.
Fuck, Assault Lily Last Bullet is going to the same company that took over Symphogear XD for 2 years before EoSBascially the retirement home of gacha
>>50215513>https://assaultlily.jp/news/info/9174/>From WFS Co., Ltd. (a.k.a. the guys behind HBR) to Kingpawn Co., Ltd.You should probably know that the writing is on the wall when So-Net ditched your English version to have full focus on developing the BGHS spinoff.
>>50215764Why didn't WFS make a 3D Assault Lily? It would have been more sexy and popular than HBR
>>50215775Many factors, but I think WFS, on a business standpoint, just knew that they had to let it go and of course they got the darlings of HBR, Magia Exedra and Isekai Slime under their current gacha portfolio. That or Azone Intl. saw the writings as well.
>>50215764English version was DOA. Terrible translation quality, not enough players for the pvp system, and of course, breakneck speed in an attempt to catch up to JP.>>50215513Honestly, if it lasts two more years that's nearly 7 years, pretty good run.I'm pretty surprised it's still going on to be honest, I know the stage plays and live shows are pretty popular in Japan, but I doubt that audience is enough to sustain a gacha game.
>>50216033Still in a race to EoS with D4DJ then...
>>50215076>Has Project Tokyo Dolls, Takt Op., Tenka Hyakken, and other gamesLooks like Lapis wasn't really liked after all bro.
Stella sora remains the biggest disappointment of 2025.Yostar really deserves an award for making a game that makes me feel immense disappointment whenever I remember it exists.
>>50216326Had no expectations for it and didn't play but still disappointed looking at it.
>>50215076>>50216141BRS? Engage Kill?>>50216326At least it has pantsu.
>>50218059>At least it has pantsu.But is it actually visible in-game
It was obvious Team C would be rerun with no other changes but it's such a shame that Team A and B are left in the grave. It's understandable since Yuki and Yamada were the most popular but a surprise second banner would be really nice.
AGA has ressurected another dead series. Truely the necromancer of mobage.
>Only got Yuki with my ticketsIt's over for me PTDbros...
>>50215513so does pokelabo only have the madoka game now?
>>50216326But did you quit and uninstall
>>50219251Technically yes. Pokelabo as a corporation is dead, but it is still used as a sub-brand of WFS.
>>50219236Their swimsuits will be available again? I have 9 bags and really want Yuki black bikini
>>50219363Yeah the swimsuits are back and I finally completed them too.
Why isn't new yurige coming out?
>>50219624There's Stella Sora I guess? The female mc is vastly more popular there
>>50219333damn I didn't even know they got absorbed at the start of this year
Happy 3rd anniversary Shironeko Golf !You may be permanently maintenance but at least you are alive!
>>50219639No one cares about apparent cope popularity, as long as Male MC exists it will never be yuri.
>>50222082Theres plenty of yuri between the units, more so than in BA, if that interests you. The game is shit though.
AGA has yuri already and lot of it.
>>50216141Lapis didn't even last a year. Those other games each lasted multiple years.
You know what game has lasted 10 years though? Yokai Puni... I kneel...
>>50225065Takt Op also died in less than a year yet people there miss it.
>>50225194W-why are Raden and Towa blobs...?
>>50226863That's their real form. The stream form is fake.
https://youtu.be/AsKxW5WzbJAShe's finally got a song in Re:StageWell it's not really her but still
Compass has updated and Meloonya is now available. The usual new hero things for her will be available until the 9th.The SAO collab is also available from now until the 5thThere has been some card balancing today - mostly buffs across the board and the changes are primarily to the stats of the cards.As for hero balancing:Tesla:>Health modifier increased from 1.35 to 1.40Istaqa:>Defence modifier increased from 0.55 to 0.60>Health modifier increased from 1.20 to 1.25>Close range card activation speed is 3% faster>Normal attack range increased by 1m>Hero ability bonus damage for normal attacks increased from 33% to 40%, cards from 40% to 80% and hero skill from 400% to 9900%Aqua:>Dash attack bonus damage multiplier on shield break decreased from 4 to 3.5Kitsunegasaki:>Attack modifier increased from 1.25 to 1.30>Health modifier increased from 0.85 to 0.90>Normal attack range increased by 4%>Hero skill duration increased by 1s>Hero skill range increased by 3mRyza:>Attack modifier increased from 1.25 to 1.35>Hero action healing increased from 7% to 9%Bugdoll:>Health modifier decreased from 0.80 to 0.75Stellea:>Hero action damage increased by 2%>Hero ability silence duration for hero action hits increased by 1s, >Hero ability silence duration for normal attacks increased by 0.2s>Fixed an issue with the hitreg of normal attacksLovey:>Hero action maximum lifesteal increased from 17% to 20%>Hero action minimum lifesteal increased from 2% to 5%Rimuru:>Hero skill requires 13% more to chargeRoxy:>Defence modifier increased from 1.25 to 1.35>AoE card casting recovery time is 0.2s faster>Hero action damage increased by 50%>Hero action movement slow increased from 15% to 20%>Hero ability bonus damage for normal attacks increased from 33% to 35% and for cards from 40% to 50%>Hero ability now increases the duration of debuffs on enemies by x1.3Nanigashi:>Health modifier increased from 1.05 to 1.10>Hero ability cooldown reduction increased from 25% to 35%Collapse:>Defence modifier increased from 1.35 to 1.40>Normal attack speed increased by 27%>Normal attack hitstop reduced by 50%Milipoyu:>Defence modifier increased from 0.75 to 0.80>Hero action charge time is 0.2s fasterPopuPipi:>Health modifier increased from 1.20 to 1.25>Improved hero action movement capabilities when turning left and rightNot sure how I feel about Meloonya. My runs with her were in the shitter and I just couldn't get a deck that consistently worked well. When you've got someone with no defence then she can absolutely rape them but innately high defence is pretty common and everyone seems to have a billion instant cast shields up the ass that she can't deal with.To this day I still seethe over the existence of the 6 second instant cast 100% shield - the Mega Man collab is a stain on humanity and should be erased from the timeline.
>>50227148It's still alive? Wow?
>>50229353>IstaqaUnnecessary HS overbuff>>50229353>AquaShe'd be weak without a good enough dash attack>BugdollUnnecessary nerf. I'd have wait to see if his winrate dropped more.>StelleaToo much silence might be OP.>>50229353>RoxyIt's a lot of buffs and I tried her, she does a lot damage.>MilipoyuAt some point, they just need to let the playerbase deal with their own problems instead of giving them infinite buffs.>PopuPipiThis fundamentally changes how they can operate/function a good amount. Could be quite strong.
>one 10 roll the new banner since I hit 50 tickets>YamadaShe did literally the same thing the first collab, now I have both versions of her.
>>50229353might be a me issue but they should gives tanks more defense since most of them have garbage defense
>Digimon new anime OP song>MADKIDStfw you remember when MADKIDS did an insert song for a standard Dragalia Lost in-game event? Does anyone else miss Dragalia Lost?
>>50231188Could be you because tanks seem to be performing very well lately. But could be they have very dedicated mains. That's the theory at least.
>>50231188The problem with buffing defence is that it only really counters a small number of heroes e.g. Meg Meg, Milipoyu and now Meloonya to an extent. 99% of the time anyone playing these heroes will also be bringing a 100% defence debuff with them so ultimately it won't make any difference.I also find it harder to fit defence-heavy cards into a suitable deck that would be able to take advantage of it.
https://x.com/Rance0323/status/1983775876543344761?t=z1mKpE6zb1xgGNg-4wxzAA&s=19Thoughts on this theory?
>>50235173>Stella Sora
>>50235173D4DJ?!
>>50235173it's over
>>50235173>no *****s*Their bubble won't be happy about this!
>>50238220#COMPASS didn't release on October
>>50240695Exactly.
>>50235332The Yostar of Generosity has blessed this game to live 10 more years by choosing the correct release month. Theory is right.
Why do all the fight choreography and effects in Chinese action mobages look so samey and soulless. Even Dragalia's action felt more 'real'.
>>50242682I don't play chink mobage but if I had to guess, it's the same thing with their action choreography elsewhere. Chinese commit to the few martial arts they are repeat their most favorite moves over and over. If you see Chinese action enough, you can just recognize all the few dozen of the popular cinema fighting styles. This applies to sword and weapon fights as well.
Stella sora is shit
https://x.com/lifurafa82/status/1980305192060092902/photo/1Stella Sora has pantsu!
>>50243005
>>50242682It depends on how good the director is. For example I haven't seen a mobage have fights like this:https://youtu.be/7ZANYMihNZMOn the other hand wuwa fights look like this:https://youtu.be/HXwBiZW-VrcMobages don't usually use the environment, which is used a lot on chinese movies.
