Thread: At this point, I am no longer surprised

One thing to mention about this. I won't deny that you are right in a sense: that is the best approach for these players, but it isn't the best approach for Nutaku by a freaking mile. This is the nature of these games, they are designed for you to have many things to do each and every day (wait until we get AW and extra dailies, will people ask for breaks because they can't farm monday daily because of the other daily?) so you need to decide and manage your gains and losses with the opportunity to pay to soften those choices. This is the case with many, many games that tely on an energy system that refills over time.

Having said that, I already said that I favor one week break times from time to time. If they would implement those extra rates like in DMM it would be perfect. Even so I would complain on no breaks after like 3 back-to-back farming events. But...

Not the case. The most "oppressing" case was two farming events back to back with no break (Charlotte/Ada) and one of them got a direct upgrade not too long after (Horace, a Star Rush). According to this, we didnt need a break after Rowanna, Shiho (because we already got one), Gold Rush and Azami (because we already got one again). Even if I favor the regular one-week break in the way DMM has implemented it, this is just a mess. I don't know how DMM gives Nutaku the tools and events, but things could have been done way better than this.

Also , the fact that dmm does that means that even in japan they don't relelase event after event like eab would like (i mean , i guess you could still call this an event , but it doesn't sound like actual events) , which is good. It means the devs aren't complete tools and do realize that their newbie or f2p players do need some downtime to restock , WITHOUT having to chose at all times , which imo is the best aproach possible to the game. If we get that here , i have no issues if we get no normal breaks.

Except typically, DMM literally has twice as many events/dailies/etc. going on at a given time.

IIRC, 1.5x drop events didn't show up until after AW dailies showed up. Not that newbies should be doing AW dailies anyway, but the "pick and choose" aspect is still there. Not to mention all the revival/subjugation events that go on.

This is DMM 2-3 weeks ago.

Upcoming Maintenance on January 7th Between 10:00~15:00:

Contents:
-Emergency Mission "Gold Rush" Ends.
-Revival Mission "Lord of the Dead's Daughter" Ends.
-Subjugation Mission "Senikki Yagyou" Ends.
-Story Mission and Daily Mission Drop 1.5x, AW Orb 2x, and Skill AW Fairy Drop 1.5x Campaign Begins (Jan 7th~14th).
+For Millennium War Aegis, Millennium War Aegis R, and Millennium War Aegis A (iOS).

Other:
-Premium Summoning Chance-up Units Changed.
-Revival Premium Summoning Extended.

So they had three concurrent events prior to this "break".

Point is, they have no shortage of shit to do. We do. Which is why I find it so baffling that you're so adamant against people wanting more (besides the obvious stubborn attitude you have going on with not wanting to concede to any of my points).

That said, I do kinda lean towards lolix's viewpoint, in this sense that I think it's better for a game to have some level of newbie friendliness. Of course my gripe isn't with the pacing of events, but with the number of things that are rather unclear for a new player and how easy it is to make rather dire mistakes....

The only really dire mistake is 30CC'ing or otherwise getting rid of Katie/Cloris/Bashira.

Not that I'll ever understand how people manage to fuck those up.

they don't. you can either copy/paste the jp text to google translate, drop by here and wait for petite soeur to translate, or ask over here.

But newbies/normal players don't need that much downtime. Either the event is better than the normal/daily/mission maps, or it isn't. If it is worthwhile, either I can do it, or I can't. If I can, I do. If I can't, I do dailies or missions with my stamina. Either way, it's not that difficult to get any new units up to my main team's level if I'm new. Maybe if there were multiple events going on at the same time, or after two-three weeks of events, it would be nice to have a break afterwards. Otherwise, bring on the events!

it looks like they having at least 1 event i saw a girl with fox tails and 2 new witches but can't understand any words

top 'witch' is a curse user, current ongoing farm event
bottom 'witch' is a mage that can be obtained by switching account over to iOS

Yeah, the lower is the non-awakened form and the upper is awakened.

that's what all starters get lol.
and the different pose/art is due to AW. most units get different art on AW, but there are exceptions like nyashira.
