    Step-Up Gacha: 5950 gold for guaranteed rainbow



    Although she's not listed, Daisy is in the pool (and presumably Iris and Anthurium as well).

    My rolls:
    Step 1: Kikyo Bellflower
    Step 2: Jasmine
    Step 3: Violetta Tulip #12
    Step 4: Yulan
    Step 5: Strawberry Candle (new)
    Step 6: Daisy (the rainbow I wanted most)

    I also did a single roll on the player's gacha again for kicks, and got Rose.

    Today is a good day.

    Hmm a guaranteed 5 and 6 star, tempting, but I think I will wait for a 'better' deal at xmas, hopefully.

    Technically it's 4000 gold for the rainbow, and 1000 gold for the gold (and 500 for a chance at another gold).

    But yeah, it is expensive. Definitely moreso than the previous rainbow gacha.

    I'm hardly gonna complain though, since I got the rainbow I actually wanted (and she wasn't even supposed to be in the pool to begin with).

    So it's a random draw? We don't even get to pick the girls we want?
    Nutaku really expects me to cough up 100 bucks for random girls? Knowing my luck I'd probably just end up with dupes.
    That's a very crappy deal imo.

    It is shame that the cost of nutaku gold is so absurd.

    Confirm Anthurium is in the pool, as I got her as my 5*, and Fritillaria as my 6*, both new units so I am fairly pleased with that.

    I will say the same thing about this as I have posted on FB.
    60 bucks is a lot of money for a bloody microtransaction. These sums cannot be even considered "micro transactions". Not at this amount.
    If the devs used their brains and would decrease the prices people would be more inclined to buy something.
    Example: Paying 20 bucks 3x times a month, does not feel that bad as paying 60 bucks straight up front. Its the same in the end but feels different in person.
    If they reduced the prices they put in the game (mainly the cost of nutaku gold) people with lower budget might be able to afford them, and they would actually make more money since more people would like to buy something, rather than the miniscule amount of wealthy players who dont care about throwing around hundred of $$ each month.
    Many devps. know this and thats why games like Dota2, League of Legends, etc earn shit tons of money, Because the Micro transaction is small enough to feel insignificant - but once you buy multiple of them you still spend a lot of money at the end of the month. Korean MMORPGS do it this way and works, heck even WOW is doing Micro transactions these days, seeing it as a working business model.

    Thing is, they are not. These are premium packs, offering you their rarest commodities. You can't really expect a restaurant to serve you a full-course gourmet meal for a couple of bucks, after all.
    And they already have "micro" parts in place, allowing you to draw Premium and one of Limited gachas for a mere 1$, once in awhile, and 3$ after that. And even regular draw prices outside of a free gems are not that big at 5$ when you exhaust discounted pulls.

    ^ This. It's been established numerous times there is zero NEED for a 6* (or even a 5*) to clear all game content, so the 6*s, and to a much lesser extent gacha 5*s, are purely premium content/bonus content. Furthermore, nearly all the games you mentioned make a huge portion of their money from subscriptions, something Nutaku does not have. Without that subscription money, the store for premium content must inevitably be more expensive (granted, as a portal/part-time developer its costs aren't in the same league as subscription-based MMOs).

    Theoretically, you could make an argument that due to much lower costs, the subscription point is invalid, looking purely at the premium store prices. "Micro transactions" are designed to make you spend a little here, a little there, over and over. This is a LIMITED TIME OFFER, thus the whole point is "spend a lot now for an extremely rare item (in this case, a girl lol)" and thus cannot be fairly compared to the "micro transactions" that permeate many online games' daily offerings. As ZeroZet pointed out, this game DOES have its own micro transactions, and this is not by any means intended to be in the same category as them.
