Gameplay?
>>2018414What if it's not a gacha game?
>What're we thinking?That any vague interest I had in the game shriveled up and died when I read that, I already know I dont want to share a community with faggots like you. You dont post any info or personal opinions you have on a game you're allegedly interested in but want to know how "we" think. Your thread is complete dogshit and in better times you'd be banned for shitting up the board. That's what I think. Thanks for asking.
is this set in the 80s?
>>2018414BA 2.0
>>2018423>looks like a fuck tranniemuke

>>2018414waiting for gameplay
>>2018423
Why did the Blue Archive JP thread die?
>>2018414Will keep an eye.>>2019015vmg is dead outside the schizo general.
>>2018414>What're we thinking?Looks incredibly less soulful than red archivebut honestly I just want her back
>>2019168It used to be so vulgar...
>>2018414Doesn’t it feel a bit too similar to BA again?
Who deleted the previous thread?
>/vmg/why though?
>>2019773Only games that have already been released or are about to be released are allowed, that's why they deleted the /vg/ thread
>>2019773>>2019784to be fair this board is slow enough for a pre release thread like this one to survive
>>2019580BA is their game so no surprises there
predicting a mix of Taisho Roman fashion with modern architecture and some modern fashion
hags and lolis
so where's the gameplay?
>>2019580>what is art style
my bet that this is gonna be turn based game
>>2020121Koreans making Taisho shit would be fucking wield considering the smallest things imperial japan get censored in korea.
>>2020180they should do it just to snub the tiny dicked gooks that simp for nexon out of their chaebol slurping instincts and the corrupt judicial system that sides with their quack lawsuits.
>>2020183what
>>2020180I really dunno what they were thinking with this setting.I know they wanted to attract the jap audience but these people can't even get their localization done properly.how the fuck are they going to get a setting with a ton of jap historical references right as someone who doesn't have/has to rely on a tea, of outsiders' help for the understanding of another knowledge?
>>2020121I'd rather they go 80s showa o
I hope its a NTE 3d driving open world competitor
>>2020220AI MTLs are already perfect, and will be perfect by the time they need it.

>>2018790sorta, seems like an alt timeline dimension. all we really know is magic is real and everyone is a witch basically.
https://x.com/Asora_EN/status/2056557955743420779[Notice from the Special District Office PR Department]World Introduction - Origin of Magic“Hecate, the First Magician”The goddess Hecate, revered as the first magician, is most often depicted holding a torch in one hand and a dagger in the other.A powerful goddess of sorcery, magic, and thaumaturgy, Hecate also presides over the moon and the night, shadows and crossroads, and boundaries. Her authority over boundaries allows her to govern transitions between worlds: day and night, life and death, surface and hidden, city and nature, and reality and unreality.The torch and the dagger are Hecate’s most iconic symbols. The torch illuminates the boundary between night and day, symbolizing the divide between reality and unreality, and represents the key that grants access to the hidden side of reality known as magic. The dagger, in turn, becomes the magician’s will that manifests magic into reality.Though myth has faded and the paradigms of the age have changed countless times, the two concepts of torch and dagger remain the most essential principles for magicians to this day.
https://x.com/Asora_EN/status/2056560472087003335[Notice from the Special District Office PR Department]World Introduction - Kleis (κλείς)“The key that unlocks the boundary between the surface world and world hidden beneath.”Hecate’s torch, and the key that allows passage between reality and unreality.Derived from the ancient Greek word for “key,” the Kleis is an essential tool that allows magicians to wield magic, commonly referred to as an ignition keyJust as a car requires a key to start, magicians must enter the realm of unreality using a Kleis to use magic. Because every magician possesses one, the Kleis is also regarded as a symbol of a magician’s qualification.
https://x.com/Asora_EN/status/2056562990602969201[Notice from the Special District Office PR Department]World Introduction - Artifact“A weapon through which a magician’s will takes form.”Hecate’s dagger, and a weapon that manifests a magician’s will into reality.Artifacts are weapons that possess magical powers.They exist in many forms, from ancient relics steeped in history to ingenious creations born of modern craft.Magicians who enter the hidden world through an ignition key can wield an artifact, which allows them to command powerful magic that would otherwise be impossible.

>>2026399If these are the equivalent of BA's guns then I hope they branch out into staves and books and other magical items

this is the worst gacha game preview rollout ive ever seen
>>2026496This is the real protagonist.
>>2026493sex
>>2026533it's way less hype than kv for suredoll is sex though
>>2026959kv initial reception was free of nexon interference
DOLLPUSSY
>>2027240It's a solid wood, you'd have to carve one out yourself. Also watch out for splinters.
gameplay?
>>2028956who cares, it's gachayou log in, do your dailies and if you're lucky you're out in less than 5 minutes
>>2029056Ok but how do i know whether i can see panties in the game
>>2029070You will see panties because its artists love pantyshots (remember this key visual for Project KV >>2019175) and the same team already released a character design for AO with visible panties here >>2026493
I hope that it will be not as time consuming as Azur Lane. BA had very nice option to sweep, and even skip battles that are not bosses.It would be nice if gameplay wold be good, because from what I'm seeing art is already kino.Invite waterkuma to the party and it will be masterpiece.
>>2028131Just install an onahole.
What kind of timeline are these guys looking at? Judging by the guy constantly saying gameplay doko and the anemic details on the site it appears to be miles off but then I see the pv says 2026.
>>2018414>look at picture>"wow, the girl is so pretty. with megane too? amazing".>see >>2018423>....? the fuck?What a fucking massive downgrade, got my hopes up for nothing.

>>2042189what the fuck, it's 3D?
now we're talking
>>2042752bout time we see more character designs
all smiles over here
>>2042752I fucking love the designs. It's cute and simpler but beautiful. It's not like the chink over engineered designs
analman
Really liking how omnipresent the anime lens flares are in the animations and designs and how it ties into the shooting star motif.
>turn basedfuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
>>2018414Nice i prefer turn based a lot more nowdays, from what I understand they got inspired by e33?Also how true is this talk about the devs losing goodwill with blue archive players from JP and KR? Does it hold any water or it's just overblown?
>>2043028>from what I understand they got inspired by e33?This sounds exactly like something someone heard from someone else that heard it from something else, and so on.I'll doubt that until there's a source from an interview or something.>losing goodwill with blue archive players from JP and KR? Does it hold any water or it's just overblown?Overblown but no doubt the KV problem will affect diehard BAfags' perception of this game. Rightfully so if I'm being honest.
>>2043059the e33 thing is from reddit and just based on the qte shown in the trailer
>>2043028JP player tends to be more forgiving if the final product is good enough to satisfy them, KR fanbases, however, are known for holding grudge for a long time.
>>2043059>>2043069Tbf gachas tend to copy popular stuff and I remember watching a japanese streamer playing the full game as well too.It's just that usually takes longer and E33 didn't release that long ago for copycats to come out that fast, so yeah I think it's just turn based like hsr.
looks like reverse 1999 and blue archive had a kid
>>2018414>What're we thinking?If the gameplay is methodical and tactical it mite b cool.
>>2043213sure but they could have already been working on a star rail clone and added qtes to attacks and dodging/parrying to make it e33likewe'll see
gameplay probably a prototype NCSoft just made then asked DynamisOne to polish, write story and style it.that's why the development is quite fast
the story seems cringe but other than like gakuen idolmaster there's no gacha with a good story so whateverthe three playable character designs we've seen are great
>>2043891>gakuen idolmaster as the only good exampledaring statement. elaborate on its story.
>>2043028I've seen a lot of my jp follows followed dynamis one. JP doesn't really care much about the drama or not aware as much. It's most likely KR side that are more aware and shitting in them but as loyalty to BA and not for nexon.>>2043059As a BA player, I'd still play this. I want to see these guys' own vision of BA if they're in full control. There's definitely something holding their group back in nexon that led them to such extremes. I actually want to see more BA clones tbdesu and stella sora disappointed me.
>>2043897Not him but it's the only gacha I actually play so I'll give you my thoughts: It's just idolm@ster.I guess the strong character writing stands out a lot more thanks to the relatively small cast
>>2026493You will fuck ze doll and you will rike it
>>2043028>E33 invented turn based rpgs
>>2043975Nta but if it's about character writing, umamusume is pretty up there too isn't?Also damn I tried playing gauken but setting up a VPN filtered me hardMight as well stick with umamusume anyway, umas superior to ningen women
>>2044273>if it's about character writing, umamusume is pretty up there too isn't?Yes, but in Uma you have like 200 horses meanwhile GK only has 13 so each idol gets a lot more focusAlso iirc in Uma the character stories are always the same regardless of what scenario campaign you play, while in GK every new scenario they've released until now comes alongside story progression for most of the girls
>>2043928>JP doesn’t really care muchThey do, and a lot. If we’re comparing it to KV, AO has a lot less followers despite having shown way more, but a lot more detractors. Japanese BA fans straight-up demanded the Famitsu twitter account to remove the “former BA devs” in their ad for it. Diehards despise it and regular fans range from interested to feeling skeptical- and that’s putting it nicely. They no longer have the heaps of goodwill they once had.KR on the other hand hates it with a passion for many other reasons, such as the game being at least partially set in 1889 Japan and being backed by NCSoft
>>2044450They're also banned from comiket after faking their doujin booth.
>>2044450>having shown way moreFew people care about loredump walls of text. What important things (cute girls) have they actually shown? Until yesterday all AO had was the OL hag and some dollcunny. By contrast, Project KV had 4(?) cute schoolgirls with great designs revealed very early so mogs AO by far.
>>2043891>there's no gacha with a good story so whatevertrickcal is pretty good if you like a cartoon-esque setting.
>>2044502they also had people draw the characters to celebrate the announcement. with this game we were just operating on faith that we'd get good girl designs eventually
>>2044568>>2044502Even before they released the designs (or anything, really) they had like 60k followersTheir latest posts had two new designs and they still haven’t gotten much traction Then again, people used to think KV was a BA spin-off rather than a direct competitor so that helped
>>2044502>cringy lore drop>creepy ass NPCs>just another turn based game.They are still riding that BA coattail hard, otherwise this kind of reveals would totally fall off the radar.
>>2044450KV also was like 2 years ago back when "BA devs" and BA itself was crossing its peak.KV, for being something that was actually taking real inspiration and influence from BA, struck at the same ideal time like Genshin striking during COVID. The initial popularity couldn't have been better until most of it from korea turned negative
>>2043975well I'll give you credit for actually responding with a reasonable response
so, did DynamisOne really sabotage BA/Nexon?
>>2045028What makes you think that?
>>2045068i keep seeing posts that D1 sabotaged BA or Nexonwell, some take from neutral stances would be nice
>>2045071They clearly did something shady while working with Nexon, which was why Nexon could easily crush their KV project without them putting any resistance, but to which extend we will never know for sure.
>>2045071sabotage implies that something was ruined thanks to D1. I think BA's state is completely natural.
