Thread: Sengoku Providence announced!

I'm really not sure what to make of this. Seems like this game is already garnering a lot of ill feelings.
I'm still willing to try it. Hopefully it doesn't take 5+ minutes to load, and require a refresh almost constantly like BGR.

Now what I'm curious of is listings of the 4* girls, their FB page only displays 5*. Shame that the consensus seems to be that with the paygate for slots they lowered the chance of 5*, and $30CAD is way too steep, so I will not hold my breath for a 5*.

Though I do like the premise of this game (female samurais bashing it out in the fields) is appealing, If this is ment to be mostly pvp focus I think I will not join the ride. I am not big on PVP, never enjoyed the aspect (other than LoL but thats a MOBA so the concept is different), plus I dont think I wanna keep up with more than 2 browser games at a time. Flower Knight Girls and X-Overd are games I joined from the beginning and have been enjoying them, and while I might be able to join this game from the start as well, I think it would severly impact my time managment I have for these games.
If the game came before X-Overd the situation would be different though... maybe, depends on the PVP factor mostly.

I'm actually expecting to drop X-Overd for this game, which I'm quite bored with already. The character designs in this are by far more appealing, especially with them all by the same artist so I don't have to deal with inconsistencies and I'm not even big on traditional Japanese armor either. I'm just hoping the battle system isn't gonna be... how would I say... lackluster?

Expecting to drop this game unless i for some reason get really caught on it :P
Never did try X-Overd, in the end i could not be arsed.

How the fuck do you get 5* from the gacha? I keep using all my tries and not getting shit.
Do I need to do something special? If they're all paywalled, then fuck this game.

They're just super rare, like 1% chance to get one. Higher chances and more 5* choices if you pay though. But you can get them if you're a free player.

I'm about ready to give up on this game.

Day #6 of doing this pre-registration gatcha, and not a single 5*. In the Japanese release, people were getting one (sometimes more than one) 5* in their first set of ten pulls, and they had the option to go beyond the ten daily pulls by sending out a tweet. Unfortunately, we don't have this option. They also had a feature where after they did 49 pre-registration gatcha pulls, the 50th was always a guaranteed 5*. If we had this in the Global release, I would have had my 5* by now (since this is Day #6 for me, and I do ten pulls per day).

I find it humorous that the supposed "reason" for SuperHippo giving us increased slots (for Nutaku Gold!!!) to keep additional characters, was because Japanese players were receiving so many 5* during their pre-registration gatcha that they had a hard time deciding who to keep. With the way the standard/default rates were lowered for the English version (unless you purchase those additional slots!!!), that's really not a problem, since you have such a slim chance to pull even a single 5*, let alone more than that. We never even reach the point of getting more 5* than we can handle, UNTIL we purchase the extra slots and receive that "increased chance for 5*" (which was probably the default drop-rate for the Japanese pre-registration gatcha). Kind of backwards.

Basically:

- SuperHippo lowered the default drop-rate for 5* girls, compared to the Japanese version. They also locked certain girls, as well as the standard drop-rate for 5*, behind a pay-wall.

- Want 2x/Auto Battle? Better pay!

I'm okay with them giving an increased number of slots if people wanted to pay. However, altering the rate of 5* character drops until you do defeats the purpose of the pre-registration gatcha. I doubt many people participate in these kinds of things for the 4* girls, I know I don't. I'd get enough of those by simply playing the game. As for locking game features (2x/Auto Battle) behind a pay-wall? I don't need to explain how awful that is.

At least this destroys any interest I could potentially have had in this game. The art is nice, and I enjoy the setting, but greed this early on is just inexcusable. I guess I'll just continue to support/pay money in Flower Knight Girl instead. I know Sengoku Providence won't be getting a single cent of me, or a minute of my time.

Even in [Idol Wars] Pre-Reg it's only 1.6% for 5*, but there's constantly SSR flying around the selves because there's the milestone rewards ( which prompt people to make more dupe account )
and xtra pulls from twiiter user.

for [Sengoku] it's harder to get 5* probably because:

1.People are probably being put-off by the paywall.
2.No milestone rewards.
3.only limited to 10 pulls.

put 1,2,3 together and there's less people doing Free Gatcha = Harder to get 5*.
It's like [Shooting Girl] Pre regs, most people got their 4* at the end of the event or none.

...wait are certain heros locked behind paywalls

and if so can you unlock them in game

...and yeh heavy PvP = wha;e fest and epenis game
