Thread: Sengoku Providence announced!

Had no idea we were losing out on THAT horribly many things. Sheesh, greed at its finest.

I wish DMM would run the English Version of FKG too. At least we have got the Autorun feature for free and we will get a free Event 5* every two weeks. I have thought after the amazing Black Friday Deal (pick a 6* Girl for 10 bucks) they are moving in the right direction but after i have read about the Sengoku Providence announcement and the huge differences compared to the Japanese Version my hopes are crushed.

It's sad cause i like Games based on Japanese History and Sengoku Jidai is a very interesting time period but i won't spend money for necessary Features cause they should be there in the first place.

Shame on you Nutaku

I finally got my first 5* today (Nankoubou Tenkai). She wasn't the one I wanted (wanted Oda Nobunaga), but I won't complain. A 5* is a 5*, and her stats are a complete mirror of Oda Nobunaga. The only difference are in the skills and that Oda's leader skill is a 20% increase to all types, while Nankoubou is 30% to Wind units.

I guess I'll give the game a try, having pulled a 5*, but I definitely won't be supporting it, even for $5. They don't deserve a cent from me, not after how they're handling all of this. I guess I'll never have 2x/Auto Battle because of it, but I'd rather that than throw money their way. Maybe...MAYBE...if they change their perspective, and re-adjust the game, but that's only after a stretch of time has passed and they've proven themselves to me. Without that, I can't in good conscience, give them my dollar.

Honestly, if they don't make amends for their early mistakes, I'd be surprised if this game has a life-span of more than six months. It's already turned off a lot of people (rightfully so), and while whales are always willing to pay, I doubt it'll be enough to keep the game going. But then, I guess it depends on how many whales there are.

You do know that they are after licensing, because if you take their "investment", your IP belongs to them. In short, yes, this is a way to drive up their "shareholder" value before ever going public (or attracting an acquisition). Think of it this way: If you were in a brothel, and you were competing with 9 other women, being displayed like an object for sale, and some rich dude walks in, I'm sure you're going to pull out all the stops you can.

Many tech companies have done this before, under the guise of "fostering nurturing or budding development", but all they were after was some no-name basement dweller who had this brilliant idea, and they wanted to own the next "Facebook", "Snapchat" or "Twitter". I know a lot of people in the investment community, so these kinds of things are quite common. I'm interested in knowing who exactly is pulling the strings behind Nutaku (and not the public face of some PR dweeb)

Wow, our pre-reg really is horrendous compared to what JP got. Like, no comparison at all.

I got really lucky today, got one 4star and nine 3 stars

Yeah same...

If i don't get a 5* through luck i won't try that game...No way i am spending Money on this shit^^

from what I'm reading this is looking super greedy and things we need long term are behind paywalls

....I think I'll try on release but I'm not even sure on that

Yeah its a real shame. I could forgive charging for the extra slots, but they completely killed the chance of getting a 5* in the free one - and this is coming from someone who lucked into Oda Nobunaga. Putting 2x/auto behind a paywall is just excessive.

Its funny, I didn't even know about the game until I read about how scummy they're handling the pre-reg. I took a look at the game itself and I really liked what I saw.

Cute art, patting/touching mini-game, multiple unlockable scenes per girl with some animated like in Osawari, and a more turn-based version of FKG...just kind of bummed out that this is how I ended up hearing about this game.

They said they did this as a way to make up for removing P2W features but well, they'd have to make some pretty big changes and put out some damn good offers like the recent FKG ones to make up for this. Maybe someone who's familiar with the DMM version can comment how bad the P2W aspect in the original version was.

Anyone has some idea of when could the pre-reg end? Not sure if it's worth to purchase slot now...
