Predownload is up, releases tomorrow. Are you going to play it?
>>1994872I'm going to try it and get my wives Chocola and Vanilla but I honestly don't think this game will last more than a year
>>1994931from the stuff they've been showing since last year it seems that the game has a bit of fanservice but 0 panchira the game is going to speedrun EoS
>>1994872Playing for this brathttps://x.com/nekoconne_en/status/2037046893814128858
>>1994872Don't tell me the game is region locked, still doesn't appear to me
>>1995015I've seen some people say they can't find it, maybe some countries got cucked.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.goodsmile.nekoconne
>>1995023isn't this just the jp version?
>>1995029I think it's both jp and global together, I got the link from my playstore.
>>1994934Because they are nopan
>>1994872I still have no idea what the gameplay is like, if there even is any. They've only shown pictures of the girls.
>>1995041free access to the customers, such a good service
>>1995050You could've opened the google page and see for yourself, it's a typical gacha format, it also has a rhythm game
>>1995029It's both JP and EN. I assume they'll update the APK with EN text once it launches.>>1994931Tbf, this is from the same guys that made Touhou LostWord, and that one's living longer than I'd expect it to.
>>1995041>>1995166They are ready to refill my cup on the spot!
>>1995182It's already in English. You just have to press the button on the top right to change the language.
Incredibly laggy and overheats my phone more than Endfield. I'll wait for PC release or patches addressing this
>>1995255the fuck are you on about? The servers aren't actually open yet.
>>1995288The game's JP servers were unintentionally opened around 10am Jap time for at least 30 minutes, allowing players who opened the game during that period full access to the game. That's probably what that guy's talking about.
It's outhttps://twitter.com/nekoconne_en/status/2043932470320738804
Couldn't even finish the tutorial it just freezes on the loading screen for me lmao
Holy FUCKSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEX
are the servers shitting themselves or something? I can't even download 100mb without timing out
>>1995255I see what you mean. My phone's getting almost as hot as when I play Warframe, despite this game looking 100x less intensive. I also had frame drops during the fucking gacha roll animation, of all things. Oddly the actual game bit runs fine. Wonder what they fucked up there
What a sad fail launch, apparently EU is region locked?
>no jiggle physicsUninstalled
Anybody else stuck on the leading screen for the level 1 of the main story?
Game is literally unplayable as it is now.The current errors are:>Can't downlaod resources>Black screen when opening the game>Slow and overheating on the intro>Some countries are region locked>The game is still with japanese name only in the playstore>Maintanance until 17They're gonna need to do a lot of overwork to fix the bad reputation that this caused, hope they give free stuff
>>1995533They're giving away gems on the 17th, but what a fucking disaster, I'm already annoyed that I can't download the game properly
everything suprisingly works fine on my side, and the "two overseas countries is global" is a publisher thingi get worse times with 4chin's shitty cloudflare cucking
>>1995539ah it has a reroll buttom, nice
There's something definitely wrong with the game performance. It's a very basic 2D game, yet it drains the battery as fast as a full 3D game and the animations still look a bit choppy.
Damn Neko brat...
This game is heaven for chocolate enjoyers
Got used to chinese and korean devs
I can't even clear the tutorial on an Iphone 12, shit crashes on the loading screen when selecting the Soleil store.
Anyone knows where can I download the apk?
I don't know how a game like this can run so badly. At this rate, it will either be canceled and relaunched later or it will EoS in record time.It's a shame, Saffron and Amaryllis are pure sex.
You unlock the rythm mode when you reach stage 80 but it's bugged and when you claim rewards for getting combos and ranks in each song you get nothing instead... give me my 30000 royal fromage sayori!
>>1995596They didn't test the EN version enough, if you play in japanese you will get almost no errors.
I can't put into words how much Saffron turns me on
>>1995629
>>1994872>friends and clubs are separated by worldsSo, which world is everyone playing on?
Currently re-rolling. Can I go for three 5 stars?
>>1995662The tutorial gacha is rigged to only give you one 5*
Still can't beat the tutorial... I guess I'm not playing this
cleared 100 stages but don't know what anything means or doesi just want sex with chocola and vanilla
Game sux
>>1995648EN1 should be kinda based, but the whole idea of different worlds that will be merged when the miniscule playerbase drops even lower sounds like a rugpullor at least would since such games tend to live longer than good ones
I have no idea how to build a teamI briefly saw during one of the loading comics that nekos are actually split into different "classes" of sorts, but it went by too fast and there doesn't seem to be any other menu in-game that explains what the classes are.
>cute catgirls eating cakes>click>click>dystopian lore dropwhat did Sayori cook
>>1995826>dystopian lore dropQRD? I can't play the game
>>1995821P = main points gainersB = buff the team's points gainH = recover team's staminaD = debuff opponentsE = supports with different effects
>>1995828Nekos are genetically engineered beings made by an AI that's also controlling the entire world
>>1995831Is there like guide list on which cat is good at what? The UI is so clunky that I only know my Vanilla is getting MVP for 70% pts but her ult triggers near the round end. So I just dump gold on her to lvl up. Seems like I need another copy to fully awaken her and unlock the special animation?
>>1995828>>1995836there's also robots that they have to intentionally limit when they are around humans, and that was just the first chapteri didn't play vol 4 and after tho, if something like this was there
>>1995837just make a color-matching team, current "guides" are subjective at best and ai hallucination at worst
The game doesn't turn my tablet into a heater anymore. Good.
How is everyone emulating the game?
>>1995862I'd wait for the steam version that should drop in these days
so where to get more delivery tickets?
>>1995862as far as I know this game doesn't run in emulators
>>1995919The battery points? just from passive farm from la soleil, remember to change the catgirls from there every now and then because they buff the amount produced but stop when tired.
>>1995633didn't get her, though my pulls were good enough to not bother rerolling :(
>>1995983How often to rotate?
how has she been subjected to being in an all-ages game? is this punishment or something?
>>1996192Sayori will upload a lewd saffron to her fanbox this weekend
so is there a club exclusive to us?
Finally it's playable on emulator
And it's bugged....
>>1996520play it in japanese or try the repair option and then batch download all the data, it helps
>>1996504What did you do? I'm also using Mumu but it crashes as soon as I open it :(
>>1996586Yeah I did that early and it fixed>>1996587I've been trying to run the game for the last few days, Today I updated Mumuplayer to the latest version V5.25.0 and now I'm able to play it.Game is kinda laggy regardless of your settings and it's annoying that you have to switch around landscape mode to the VN parts and Portrait mode for the rest of the game
GOD it makes me so sad it's sfw FUCK. Might just pretend this game doesn't exist and wait to come across fanart/videos/doujin
>>1996607don't lose hopealso Sayori is dying to lewd her new cargirls check her fanbox this weekend
Game went on maintenance,By the way, on the trailers we could see some of the neko's pantsu but in game the pantsu gets offscreen when their skill animation hits, is there any way to see the full animation with something like having a higher bond level or is the pantsu impossible to see?
>>1996617When you reach awakening 5 you can use the skill animation in the mainscreen but there was never pantsu, just ass like here: >>1995041
Maintenance started 2 hours earlier than announced and now they extended it for 2 extra hours... my catgirls, are they safe?
>>1995633This game panders to me
Speaking of characters, is there already some kind of tier list? I picked Vanilla from the first 10 rolls and I got a dupe of her in using some other 10 tickets
The costume price is so expensive bros...
so the free tickets can only be used on the standard banner? and we are only supposed to get something new in form of PAID skins?
How much fanservice is there anyways?
>>1996790just ass glimpses and defined nips through clothes
I dont want to add a third gacha to my roster especially considering im a gameplayfag and i also only play on pc but i feel like i would be a massive poser if i didnt read the story considering ive been a nekonigger for 10 years>>1995836if I was a benevolent ai and I took over human civilization the first thing I would do is obsolete women to accelerate development
oh my god a skin is 65 euros not accounting for the one time launch bonus
>>1996838The store is broken, there's a combo that's for 45 yen but if you try to buy it with any other currency it increases to 30USDs
>>1996906I think missions and other texts are also broken, no text appears in that
It seems that the sex is still happening, just offscreen
>event story is strictly timegated>if you skipped 2h of the first day you have to buy extra attemptsgame's not gonna live long if everything will be as is now
I'm getting fed up at how clunky the UI is, and going from one point to the other is slow as molasses. I'm not sure if it's an emulator issue but i'm getting really annoyed
>extremely basic waifu collecting game>very buggy>runs like shit somehow>turbo jewI love Sayori's art, but this is a big nope for me.
welp, for some reason this game refuses to boot on my android tablet, and the "help" page is all in japanese so I don't think I can play so soon
Even the japs are barely touching the game, its hard to find information and all I could check was this reroll tier list>>1997087>>1997087either reinstall the app, or if you can get into the game, use the repair app function
>>1997097I tried googleplay and apk in qooapp, both crash the moment the app opens, can't see any screen of the game
it really sucks how one of the last good eroge devs are torpedoing themselves like thiswatching lose implode after they tried selling a japan only all ages vn was hard enough to watch
>>1997087Disable usb debugging
>>1997249what the hell, it actually worked! thank you anon
is it worth throwing gem at the event stages just to get more event points for shop exchange? Pretty dumb to limit daily especially for those rushing last minute.
Anyone know any good comps for each color? Best I have rn is Pop w/ 4 5-stars (Fraise, Ak dut, the blonde chick I forgot her name, and Palmyra) and a 3-star on cook filler duty.
Damn they reduced the price of the costumes thanks to Sayorihttps://x.com/sayori_nw/status/2045497884100235376
>>1997436>paidhmmnyo
>>1996719>>1997097>>1997398I found this doc in a random server, take it with a grain of salt tho as there's no realiable tier lists as far as I knowhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Nx_sulJVx-sxuNhsfedlSgcL6QNjPB1t-v5uYOzeNog/edit?gid=2015992205#gid=2015992205
I'm experiencing this bug where everytime a skill activates the game freezes, I've been unable to play this day
>>1997935have you tried to limit the skill animation to once a day? game is bugged as hell though
>>1997936I used the repair app option and it fixed it, also the event finally appears unlocked
jesus christ, this is a disasterand the bastards are forcing sayori to run damage control for them
I curse the vulture who was close to sayori and convinced her to enter and proceed with this project. With how incompetent and laughably greedy this dev team is, it's clear they just wanted to use sayori and didn't care to make a quality nekopara product and didn't even care if it would bring more eyes to the franchise. This shit might as well EoS before year ends at this rate. I just feel so sorry for sayori, it looks like she genuinely wants it to succeed and she must have spent ungodly amount of hours drawing all the artwork...This game is shitty even for Japanese gacha standards, which are already pathetically low compared to what gacha are popular nowadays.
>>1996838> paid 9800> + free 19.600Holy shit, they don't even give extra paid gems for first purchase? I thought that's become a standard years ago.See picrel, orange is first purchase bonus doubling up the amount of paid gems you get, green is subsequent purchases giving small amount of extra paid gems. THAT is how things should look in modern times.
>>1998137it's not like she doesn't get the cut of those sales lol
>>1998153Of course she does but if the game was better and more popular, she could have gotten way more while reaching more fans and delivering more satisfying content to them which is what she truly cares about, much mroe than money itself, she can earn money in hundred different ways with her skills.Also her working on this game means she wasn't working on other things meaning less NekoPara content for people who don't play this game. Use your brain you retarded irony poisoned zoomie. Things are complex, don't just go around dismissing shit with mindless oneliners. They don't make you look clever, they expose your mediocre thinking.
>>1998137I think she just wanted to have a long running game where she could update stuff regularly and monetized to keep it running and gacha was the "perfect" match for that... in theory
>>1998276That makes sense. Sounds like a very safe plan... unless you happen to sign a contract with wrong people. Yeah, this genre can be amazingly profitable but it also has very high turn over rate. Some games, like GBF which I'm playing, are still going strong after twelve years with no signs of stopping (bloody hell, the highest individual bracket has 100 000 people and they might be forced to extend it if players keep getting more and more active) but there are countless titles which had to be put down in less than two years and that would be bad for sayori I think. Interestingly, gacha which tend to die the fastest, are the ones tied to already existing IPs, in my experience, as those are most scummy cashgrabs who quickly lose player support.Steam page is saying that Nekopara Sekai Connect is developed and published by Good Smile Company? Is that true? That sounds unreal... Absolutely gigantic and well-regarded company but one which has little experience in the gacha market... impossible to predict what could be the result and it looks like things didn't work out well here, they must have hired some greedy failures.
>>1998281>Steam page is saying that Nekopara Sekai Connect is developed and published by Good Smile Company? Is that true?Yes, they are the devs, Sayori was already working with them on figures and other artwork I guess
>>1998281Yes at first it was Nekoparaiten developed by Yostar but they end up in development hell and it never released, then it got revived as Neko Sekai Connect by GSC.GSC has already another gacha game for a Touhou gacha and I haven't hear good things about it besides it being resilient and people surprised it's still alive.
>>1998309>>1998312I see. Did some research myself and saw Touhou Lost World, remembered one of my friends used to play it, inquired him about how the game was handled and he said that monetization/gacha etc. were fine enough, if nothing extraordinary, main flaw of the game was apparently lack of vision of what it wants to be long term. He dropped it pretty early though. don't know if things improved.
Is the game playable now?
>accessories only contribute to the set if their parts have same raritywere devs choking on cocaine when making this up
>>1998552You will get the full SSR set and you will like it.
>>1998519I'm not sure how's it going on the phone, but it's "Playable" on emulator, currently there's a bug going on that hides the text of your missions dailies, plus the UI could be a long better, also I can't seem to go above 30fps even with max settings
God damn it, how is this UI so fucking annoying?>want to level nekos>click neko>can't cycle through them like in other gacha>have to go back and forth and select them one by one>cancelling some quests forces you back to the title screen
I can't run the game on mumu for shitTried all of the tips I could find, tweaking some emulator settings and updating mumu to 5.25.0. Nothing worked for me.The game ran pretty badly on my phone and I also hate smartphone gaming so I really wished I didn't have to wait until Steam version to play thisOh wellIf anyone has any idea of what could be causing this, I'd really appreciate it.
>>1998681is the emulator running on android 12 ?
>>1998690Yes
>>1998700Try to juggle around the emulator settings, Im using android 12, 6GB ram , 6 cpu cores, Vulkan graphics. not sure what else to say
Hope they release cute domination ost soon, that's literally the only thing in this game worth attention
>>1994872I need them to crank up the lewdness of the skin and cargirls soon, there were so many alternative costumes they could've turned into skins but they chose the boring idol stuff
These new nekos wanna rape me...
Got Kurumi from the ad banner, I was thinking that the rates for 5 stars were much lower in that banner
>>1999182I think it's the same 4.5% for all banners? it's a pretty generous % of drop ngl but I guess it got countered by the fact that you need like 20 copies of a catgirl to full limit break and max awakening her.
>>1999206>I think it's the same 4.5% for all banners?yeah I just noticed the banner rates after she came out, considering how small the cast of girls are, it kinda makes sense on how many dupes you need to max them out
>>1999182thanks for the hot period tip off anon
>>1999014Has anyone even tried datamining the game? I tried to, but I think this is one of those gachas that save their additional assets to root directory and the only feasible way to get those files (at least until Steam release) would be to download the full game on an emulator, enable root, and grabbing the data from there. For now, I've managed to get vgmstream to implement the HCA key needed to decrypt the audio files.
>>1995029Why would you play the non-jp version though?
>>1999323I don't think there's a difference, it's all in one app except different servers
is there a particular reason why were not allowed to see panties anymore in video games?
>>1999408Because mainstream storefronts don't exactly like that sort of thing? They have a business to run.
>>1999408You can thank burgers for that.
>>1994872>luv my nekos>game is shitnooo...
>>1999212hot period was true, but I got the negro.
>>1999309I was able to grab the assets data of the game but the folders and files were encrypted and divided into random parts, to reverse the encryption I needed to get the key from il2cpp.so but it was also encrypted... Tried several methods to get the key but I wasn't able to.
The nekos menu is so fucking laggy in the emulator and it makes leveling such a fucking pain, is it the same on mobile?
>>1999309>>1999621this grabs all the asset bundles straight from the server and decrypts them. From there you can open them with AssetStudioGUI and pull out all the spine files or whatever.https://litter.catbox.moe/dbc255.7z
>>1999664retard here, could you help this anon with a small guide on how to use it?
>>1999622not laggy but the game crashes sporadically on mobile when navigating menu's
>>1999673nevermind I just needed to install python3.14 and run the script, thanks anon
>>1999664How did you get to make that webm? my spine viewer isn't working with these files
open .ab with AssetStudio, extract Texture2D and TextAsset, put them all into the same folder. then drag all with the same filename into a spine viewerI used Spine Viewer Vue then cropped the webm it made. but there's probably better ones out there.
>>1999723oops>>1999717
>>1999664Neat. Now check this out. https://awoodesu.github.io/NekoAni/
>>1999876Heh
FRAISE SEXOBtw how do i download the animations into a single file like mp4?
does globohomo make neko sexbots for the poor or is it still a privilege like the regular nekos?
I still don't understand the point of elements besides the VR towers, all it seems is that teams of the same element buff each other, also I feel like lvling your nekos is expensive
It's amazing how much better this shit runs when you lower the graphics, still randomly crashes after watching stories tho
new cat
>>2000518Paul, John, and George when?
>>1999884
>there's around 305 notes on "My Dearest">you have to score 300whoever thought this is funny should be hanged
>>1999664it seems to be missing some assets like stickers and stuff, how can we pull those too. theyre not in the android apk either
Steam release when I can't wait to mod the game after learning that almost all catgirls have pantsu textures in their l2d sprites
>>2004346>Steam release whenAutumn 2026
>>2004390Hopefully the game is still alive by then
Seems like you can only interact with the daily missions menu by switching the language to Japanese. At least on mobile
>>2004566that should fix it so once you can see them in japanese you can go back to english... if that's not the case I recommend using the repair data button in the title and then the batch download button inside the game
>>1999664anyone able to re-up?
>>2005158https://files.catbox.moe/t14upb.7z
>>2005166much thanks, anon
>they just give you new neko for freeso the whole vn part is free and competitive shit is just to make whales pay while f2pGODS reap the benefits?they're THAT based?
>>2005559you won't be able to level up your nekos if your teams aren't strong enough and in turn won't be able to unlock their stories easily
How the hell do you leave your club.
>>2005586Go to the members' tab and at the top right there's a "leave" button. It seems that kicking and leaving clubs is not allowed at certain periods of the world cruise matches so if you get kicked to the title screen try again after the current period ends
>Free pussyhum either this is just a one time thing to compensate for the blunder or maybe they intent to give the new cats out given how many dupes you need to lvl up ascensions and limit breaks.Also in case anyone hasn't notice, Apple in Japanese is:りんご (ringo)
>>2005559I got locked from watching the event story for not having a super META team, so I suppose that's going to be the GETCHA of this game, want to read the stories? Better star pulling and farm 20000 hours.
>>2005729was that like 200k power? that's beatable with 3* and 4* of the same color if you're willing to spend resources on themthe only real limiter for regular level ups is the time you're willing to spend on MANUALLY CLICKING every normal and hard story stageand there's auto for that, but it's PAYWALLED
>>2006223Auto being paywalled is hilarious because it's such a basic feature in other gachas that it's baffling here, the game is already annoying to navigate
>>2006253I have an autoclicker just to progress and brute force repeat failed stages.The game feels more buggier after maintenance, I am practically playing jp language since eng keeps freezing up inn certain menus like missions.
Thank you 5 star ticket, very cool
not sure if this is good
>>2008570I think that's under their expected first month income but enough to let the game keep living, I think EoS will be in the horizon if the income goes around 50k total... but maybe they will need to cut staff for the steam release and delay it.
Delicious brown
Quit the game, the free rolls honeymoon were decent but awakening/LB and raising level was annoying. Might return if they do some limited collab or rehaul the entire gameplay that doesn't need me changing language almost every day to fix mission.Playing another game that has two cat girls to cuddle with. Hope for the best to Sayori.
maintenance killed login. games such a buggy mess still
>can only do 2x10 rolls on brownies banner per daybut why
BROWNIE SEXO
>>2014203I didn't get saffron with the free tickets. Owari da.
Do you need dupes? Want to play for Brownie.
>>2014828not entirely, but possibility for harder content, game seems to give you a bunch of dupes all around
Game is broken now isnt it
>>2014918The only issue I keep having after the update is that certain daily missions are not tracked even after doing them, what's still broken?
>>2014923Game's like this when I open it >>2014010I cant play
>>2013796I'm guessing you're the mega whale holding the game up since now everything broke lol. Also NTE looks fun.
>>2014938switch your language at the start up screen to JP. you'll have to keep it like that for now since the game only works on JP.EN currently dead
What's the best way to get money? Leveling characters is really expensive
>>2015298do quest as long as you can, also the new event has some cheap money exchange for 100 tokens.I think one of the gift quests lines is also a good way to make money
Holy shit I got saffron in a 10 pull with 2 other 5 stars.
holy sex this game better not fucking die
>>2015827Their premium stuff is just too expensive for the game to sustain itself. I think most whales have already been taken by other games.
