Endfield
>Arknights>But without the character you like>And with generic chink mobile game gameplayWhy?
>>724542130and without the excessive, meandering prose from the original
>>724542210EVERY Chinese game has that though.
>>724542038arknights wasn't even goodflopfield will kill itit also has the WORST story out of any gacha, which is incredibly funny when gachafans usually brag about their game's story
Seething guncucks
>>724542239Azur Lane doesnt
>>724542038AK lore seems interesting. And I like the diverse character design, with many different races (I just love girls with horns). Also, Endfield features my gacha voicefu, whose character doesn't get much content in another gacha I "play". The Factorio autism looks fun too, not something you'd expect from gachas usually, but probably not surprising from devs, whose original game is a tower defense.I'd just like to know if it's ever coming out. I couldn't get into the beta... Also, a little bit unfortunate that the devs supposedly went back on the more tacticool RTWP combat with positioning, and made it more of a generic rollslop anime ARPG. But it's understandable why they'd do that.
>>724542038I hate the shitty highlighter yellow they insist on using for this games main color. It's fucking UGLY. Also Ch'en and Talulah are my wives.
>>724543095Black+Yellow is PEAK industrial color scheme though.
>>724543086>and made it more of a generic rollslop anime ARPGThats my biggest complaint, they could have distanced themselves from the countless Genshin clones we already have but I heard people are making a big stink about the dodgeslop so we'll see what the next beta test period will bring.
>>724543262I doubt they'll ever go back. They need the zoomer audience, and zoomers can't into gameplay with action commitment and positioning.
>>724542038What about it? These motherfuckers don't show anything and it still won't be out till probably Q4 next year
Another beta test announcement tomorrow. Hopefully its open beta this time.https://www.youtube.com/live/Qi6yJQRsZk0?si=aJW6Poy-wCGYXF4F
>>724542038i don't play arknigs but finds their design really cool, will try this one for sure
i dropped AK for like 3 years after getting bored from grindy and heavily-meta gameplay. CC was literally unplayable despite i tried to use some brain and didnt use guide.
>>724542130The main problem is more>Without the world and setpieces they spent half a decade building upShit is mind boggling, the most liked area of Endfield is literally a massive Arknights reference. Their existing fans would've been hooked by being able to walk through Laterano or an Aegir city but no, it happens in a world people give less than a shit about and most of the characters you liked are dead but will be brought back as shit copies when they need money. It's like if Blizzard released World of Warcraft 20 years ago which doesn't have said world and happens enough time after Warcraft III for most characters to be dead.On the surface it feels like they are trying to appeal to a new audience by removing everything that made the setting interesting and removing as many references to Arknights as possible but since they still design for a niche with their factorio and TD systems, they will alienate both their old and possible new audience. The massive changes to the tutorial dream sequence being the most telling example of it.
>>724542038More like Whenfield
>>724542038Only upcoming gacha that I have hope for
JP Twitter accidentally posted what looks to be the game's low rarity fodder operators (or reserve operators)https://streamable.com/6amap9
shill me on this
>>724545625They look really cool. I really like the design in this game. Still expecting garbage but I'll check it out in forty years when it releases.
Avywenna's aussie accent makes my dick hard. Its not even that special really.
>>724545625Gavial got demoted to fodder...
The characters are cute and I like that combat isn't switching shit like Genshit. I heard that testers say the story is boring trash even by gacha standards.
>>724545625What's the point of these characters? To get people to waste level up mats on them?
>>724542038>Arknights>Doesn't have Batma or the Joke in it
>>724546469In Arknights the low rarity operators are used by new players and in game modes like the the roguelike where they're cheap to acquire.In Endfield, probably to be the gacha fodder cause there's no weapons/artifacts/lightcones/etc to fill up your gacha pulls
>dodge slop>genshin slopI don't understand who is this game for. People who want reaction based gameplay don't want autism factories. People who want autism factories don't want roll slop.Dodges and parries also make defense worthless. ZZZ has whole class archetype that is literally worthless because of it. What is the end goal here?
>>724546625It uses dodge offset like bayonetta since combo finishers are an actual thing. It's not just a braindead genshin copy.
>>724542038It still doesn't have a release date? Didn't they start teasing it like 6 fucking years ago or something?
>>724546857Its getting its first livestream tomorrow......to announce another beta.
>>724545472you're lost
>>724542038I want to sniff Endministrator-chan's pantyhose!!
>>724546908
>>724546857Early 2026 for sure this time we swear please look forward to it
>>724546964
>>724546857>>724546989A random leaker on telegram said that they're enabling payments for the upcoming beta, which means release MUST (must) be near
Surtr is the only good design this series has had.

>>724545625The fuck did they to my boy 12F
>>724547037Hnnnnnnnnnngggggg I want to worship her legs all over...
>>724547098Do you like her 3D incarnation though
flopfield
>>724542038I fucking hate tails in this game. They look like buttplugs sticking out of characters' asses.
>>724542038Dropped Girls Frontline 2 so im looking forward to this.
>>724546704Combos are no longer interrupted by dodging, as shown in last month PS5 demo.
>>724542413It does when it actually has a story event.
>>724547492Did GFL2 have any redeeming features outside of their 3D models?
>>724543095isn't Marathon the game all you faggots love this color scheme?
>>724547475how is that a bad thing
>>724547475>They look like buttplugs sticking out of characters' asses.You say that like it's a bad thing?
>>724547554unfortuantly the quality of story telling and missions we got from Girls Frontline has not manifested in the 2nd game. They create the trials so we know they are capable of making the game more complex but just cater to the idiot gooner audience.
>>724547554Endfield models won't ever be this lewd will they...
There's no way my toaster can run this shit
>>724547554Not really, reverse collapse was their real game and GFL2 is just a cash grab.
>>724547554In an alternate universe, Lowlight never made Arknights and he'd still be at MICA modelling string panties on tight asses
>>724542038Can I play as the horse knight people?
>>724547716Beta required 1060 and an old i5.
>>724547871There are horse people in Endfield and there are Polish people in Endfield but we haven't seen a Polish horse yet.

If this and Silver Palace suck then I give up on gacha.
>>724547992Arknights as in the Knights of the Ark
>>724547420>>724547186HOLY SEX
>>724547992it's Ark***hts
>>724542038>watched the first season of the anime>like it>previously tried the game but decide to try it again>no voices and the writing dragsWish the writing was more streamlined and the presentation was a little more polished. I like a lot of the songs though.
>>724547992Arknots
>>724544652>Their existing fans would've been hooked by being able to walk through Laterano or an Aegir city but no, it happens in a world people give less than a shit about and most of the characters you liked are dead but will be brought back as shit copies when they need money.Let's be real, there's absolutely no way they could have done any of those cities Justice in a 3d game.
>>724548129https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcLfb0PhfO0
>>724548116I like the world building and lore, but reading the actual story is an awful experience
>>724548116It's pretty much agreed that the actual story and world building are really good but the actual experience of reading the story is a drag because of the writing style.It's absolutely worth it but it took me a while to actually push through it all.
>>724542038Very worried that the quality of gameplay or content won’t be there like what we keep seeing with all these pretty failures
>>724547543Not really, nice try though troon lmfao
>>724548131They already more or less managed to do it with the Sui area in Endfield so I feel like it wasn't completely out of their reach. The fact that they decided to go for a more Xenoblade-like approach for their world (not fully open world but massive areas) makes it more manageable.
>>724548413So far I haven't been disappointed by any HG product. The fact they where willing to adjust the gameplay so much since the original closed alpha does seem to indicate they are trying to push out a good game.
>>724542038By the way, where is he?
>>724547924on minimum settings with the draw distance of 2 meters?
If tomorrow's livestream announces another CLOSED beta I'm gonna lose it
>>724542038But does it has incestual relationship tho
>>724548767Lose what?
>>724548116They improved in the writing since chapter 7~8, now you only really get flooded by text if significant shit happens in it like in the last two chapters but yeah, early on even the events could end up being absolutely massive drags that had no reason to take so much time to read through given what happens in it, the whole Nearl arc being unforgivable for the amount of text it has compared to what happens in it. Even something as simple as the second event Arknights ever had took several hours to read for something that you could sum up as "volcano in tropical resort is about to explode, they need to relocate".
>>724548413A friend who played it at a con this summer told me the gameplay was extremely floaty and uninteresting.
>>724548814Yes. The entire first chapter is just brother and sister sex. Lasts 20 hours.
>>724542210Arknights could have been way more popular if they kept it simple like Nikke and BA
>>724548751No, they have actual talented developers working on it who know what the fuck they are doing, which is how they managed to make it still look good while running on dogshit specs.
>>724548572Yeah of all the most hyped gacha Endfield certainly does look a cut above the others especially in the fully animated motion cycles vs the usual lazy unblended jank. Feels like the last time I’ll ever try a gacha game I got excited for if it turns out mid
>>724548940Alright, you convinced me
>>724545472It amazes me how much China has been BTFOing the nips at 3d anime games left right and center.
>>724549040>pubesKINO
>>724549047
>>724548849My sanity of course
>>724549149>>724547420is it just me being ignorant or are these the highest quality 3d models we've ever seen in an anime-style game?
Why the hell is it taking them so fucking long to make a basic Genshin style gacha? A million have come out since they announced this game.
>>724543262I remember a video of a dude complaining that there is always a fucker asking for something to be more like mihoyoshit.>>724543574Well, now CC is only once a year and harder because if you want the full reward you need to check most boxes, excepto now all effects are connected in a tree and is way harder. Is worse and has less Liberty of choice.
>>724548859Floaty like Nier Automata where it’s polished but the camera settings are loose or floaty like Code Vein having unresponsive combat? If that makes sense
>>724548413A friend who played it at a con this summer told me the gameplay was extremely solid and interesting.
>12F is Lowlight's self-insert>Gavial and Angelina are two of his favourite operators>All are in EndfieldAh...I see...which other operators does Lowlight like?
>>724548640Donkey girl didn't win the ticket to the moon.
>>724549498Do you even need to ask?
>>724549253GFL2 models are pretty good too
Picking male Endmin so I can have an ideal marriage with my wife Perlica
>>724548116What's wrong anon, don't like reading about some old farts npc fighting or cops talking about croissant and pizza?
>>724549596What's up with chink gachas and hard-locking the player into a single gender? Why can't we just swap between the MCs at any time? It's not going to help them with demography.
When's the beta?
Is the plot point where half of your characters are afflicted with turboaids and will die soon still in or did they resolve that in the Arknights main story at some point?
>>724549418Floaty as in your hits don't have any weight/oompf and the slow response time wasn't allowing nervous gameplay either. I didn't test it myself though so take it with a huge grain of salt.
>>724549685It's still in but nobody has mentioned it for a million years.
>>724549685We are going to punch out cáncer ex wife inside the rock.
>>724549685It's still in, in one of the beta's it's shown they have better treatment for it but not a full on cure still.Also the game takes place in the far future and the vast majority of the characters from the original game are dead, with a few exceptions like the vampire girls
>>724549253Endfield and GFL2 are the market leaders I think
>>724550014>lowlight worked at mica to make GFL, with a lot of his art being foundational for the games tone>left shortly after it's launch to found HG and make Arknights>meanwhile GFL2 became complete coomer bait with no other redeeming qualitiesReally makes you think
>>724549549No....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>724549685Our wives are dead by the time of Endfield...
>>724550213It's okay, because you can just 3D print them again from Tiberium crystals.
>>724549876
>>724550176
>>724546098Gavial was a 4 star you got off the credit shop when the game came out.
>>724547992Arknyaght
why the fuck would I play this over Genshin?
>>724550518It's not Genshit
>>724549253Yuzhong's 2hu circle was one of the first weeb circle in mainland.
>>724550518Different types of games? I will play this because I don't like character swapping combat and I can skip boring cutscenes.
>>724550176The trade off for aesthetics when Lowlight left was that the story got much better but now you dont have either with GFL2 what a shit ass game.
I haven't paid attention to this for over 6 months. Did they cave to Hoyotards complaining the gacha system wasn't like Genshin's?Fucks me how one would complain about characters being added to standard pool after their banner.
>>724550628I saw some gameplay a while ago and it looked exactly like Genshin swapslop. What's different?
>>724550518The story doesn't look like it's made for early adolescents to digest for one
>>724550734Your party members are on field and you can place turrets.
>>724550176The sad part is reverse collapse was a proper game with cool gameplay and no coomerbait, and it flopped.
>130+ posts>still no gameplay postedlet me guess... turn base slop?
>>724551162genshinslop
>>724551194another one?
>>724548890incestchads keep winning
>>724551162
>>724551162genshinslop with factorioshit
>>724551236Exploration is different, you can't climb or fly and instead build ziplines like desu stranding. Zones instead of openworld. Factorio for toddlers mode is supposed to be a big part of the game, but then it's build once and done kind of thing.
>>724549040My great great great great great great grandaughter.
>>724551312alright, at least it looks better than other copiesmaybe they will also use a different UI for a change
>>724551312Are these 3* operators or our reservepipis?
Give me a (You) or this little boy is your first 6*
I was going to play it but I found out its a sequel to a gacha game that I never played. I wont know what is going on with the story and characters so Ill just skip.
>>724550518Genshins launch story is ending soon even if Hoyo want to drag its corpse around forever there’s no value in the game anymore it’s being given the ff14 treatment to fund other games
>>724551874what are you even on about?
>>724542130>The good thing about Arknights is the lore, characters, world and setting>we could have had a fully 3D game where we can explore Tera, play our favorite characters in full 3D and more exciting stuff>instead we get thisI'm still mad
>>724551772why is one of his armpits exposed
>>724549253Wuwa has the best ones but the Endfield ones are pretty good.
No Reed with a fully modeled massive tail, no buy.
>>724549253GFL2, Wuwa and Endfield are easily top 3 I've seen.
>>724551946>ywn explore the city nighlife of Kazimierz or the jungles of SargonWasted.
>>724549253>not one reply has mentioned ZZZ yet
>>724552461Because they arent anything special? very animated but the models are just okay.
>>724552461Yeah there hasn't. And?
>>724552461I really don't like the character designs in ZZZ
>>724552013slut
>>724552461The models themselves aren't very impressive.
This is your Party-approved 5* character. Say something nice about him.
>>724551942>Nearly every teased region character lore bit from launch year has been revealed and expounded on>Basic lore of MC twins is explained enough despite infinite delays >Content including story in an ever worsening stateGenshin is kind of over with Snezhnayas reveal/MSQ unless you’re brown and over-attached. Besides the money you buy gems with just goes to other shallow Hoyo slop while they waste your time with AI generated “quest” text. Literally.
>>724552461good, keep my girls outta this mess
>>724552913looks like he's wearing a diaper
>>724552913soft tummy
>>724553224there are at least 3 years to go with nodkrai, snez, celestia, maybe even new khaenri'ahmost people are praising nodkrai story so far, even bitter quitters like you that used to make up shit just to be upset
>>724553479I actually did play Nod Krai because I’m sticking around for the Favonius Knights + Alice which feels like it’s going to be another Hydro Archon cliff moment for the game. It’s not quitting to be tired of the bullshit it’s just the truth that most people aren’t interested in an indefinite story. Natlan alone was 20 hours of disappointment. They’ll never improve and now the games on the backburner yet again while they chase Palworld money. Watch these careless retards buff venti without letting you aim his burst, the most basic QoL, that’ll just be icing on top. Snezh is the end for me and many others and I’ll just watch somebody else play it. Celestia is toilet paper like anything related to the Honkai realm I don’t even care about the mystery and there’s no reason to be excited when everything turns out lame like Capitano.
