We're in a period now where a select few gacha games are now at the forefront of the genre.They've overtaken the console releases in terms of quality and game design.The online dogma surrounding gacha though have made is so that any serious discussion about these games is delegitimized, but the point still stands.These titles are the games of the year. They're above what Atlus, Capcom and Square-Enix are pushing out, and you should be playing through them to learn what they're doing right.
at least the hentai that comes out of these games as a result is good
>>3659861Imo they come out mediocre because those games literally pull waifu of the month shit and each newly introduced char falls into irrelevance in the story compared to games that aren't live service and have been for the lost part thoroughly completed and released as a whole
>>3659859You need to learn about SEO rankings, my friend. These games are probably not popular by any metric. They're probably just the cheapest games money can buy in developing 3rd world countries where internet access just doubled. That's how you get trends that aren't really trends. It's not a rise in popularity, it's a rise in internet access. People who can't afford $80 games on $500 consoles. They reach for $1 games that can run on their potato phones. It's not even fair to say they like it. It's like going to a new restaurant for the first time. You order 1 thing 1 time as the 1st customer. So then an algorithm is recommends that thing to everyone else as the "most popular" item.It could actually be the worst thing to order. It could leave such a bad taste in everyone mouth that nobody visits ever again. The algorithm isn't sophisticated enough to recognize that the #1 order is cursed and simultaneously the last thing anyone will ever order. For all you know, these gacha games were designed to "poison the well" so to speak.
>>3659859Daphne looks decent because they ripped off an established franchise. I'll play it if it comes to PC and spend nothing. The other two are trash.
>>3659945Retard, these games make tons of money because they bank on the addiction of people and the waifubaiting.
>>3660027yeah, this entire buisness model is set up on what they call "whales", where 99% of people are going to hate your p2w game and immediately uninstall, but 1% of people are going to drop over $1k on your trash game, and it's enough to make a profit
>>3659859>They're above what Atlus, Capcom and Square-Enix are pushing outAnd once again the shill reveals himself
>>3659859suffers greatly from ludonarrative dissonance. their stories are too long and it has no stakes because you're playing as multiple clones of lead characters
>>3660267Reddit post, can't tell who's worse, you or OP
>>3659859They are coomer skinner boxes. Last thing we need is more of them.
Not an RPG.
>>3659859Not RPGs. You gachatards have already ruined /v/ and /vg/ with your slop and here you are trying to invest /vrpg/ too, why are you like this?
Either its RPG or not, I cant stand the way these game look. And its not about graphics, the designs are terrible. Be it characters, enemies, equipment - all of it is trash. No idea how they manage to do it like that.
>>3659859i've never even played a single one of these games, just read about people dropping too much money on them in mangas, same as pachinko. so, i really can't engage with this topic and don't understand what point you are trying to make.
I remember reading about Wuthering Waves maybe a year ago. It was supposed to be "story heavy". From the cutscenes I've seen on youtube it looks more "bloated". Characters take a long time to say that they have nothing to say. Like, you'd expect a pizza delivery guy to just declare the order and who it's for. But with this game's writing they would announce their name, the company's slogan, the company's policy, his life story. Then your brain wakes you up in the middle of the night like "Who the fuck ordered a pizza? Where was the pizza? Is it a continuity error or a conspiracy?">#PizzaGate
