Thread: Sengoku Providence announced!

Ok that settles it. I was interested in this, because of the premise (medieval Japan, cute girls battling it out, you know that stuff), plus there was one of the girls I really like.
PLUS I rolled a 5* in the pre-reg.

However this pretty much nails it. I will not log into the game, I will not play the game, I will not give a fuck about the game. Even though I rolled a 5*, even though I really like the setting. Unless the game would undergo drastic changes that would bring it closer to its DMM parent version.

If it was just the Gacha - ok whatever, but Autorun and 2x Speed ? Really ? These game are already a bit slow to my taste with all the "Blick blick blick BOSSSSSSS, BLIC BLIC BLICK GATEKEEEEPER BLICK BLICK BLICK SECRET GARDEN !!!!!"
OMG I GET IT ! I dont wanna look at it for 10 seconds, take a picture, and then go make a coffe while waiting for the stupid ingame notice boards to dissappear. ... Now imagine this bullshit, plus the fact there is no 2x on the combat.... yeeeh... NOPE.

TTS: Nice summary, and cool post on the Discord. The fact that they closed the thread immediately... lol If this was a Steam game, I can imagine the hate, heat and bad rep. this would do immediately as the community would pick up their proverbial Torches and Pitchforks and either see the thing solved, or the game burned to ashes (seen this happen a few times, the power of gaming community that is).
If this was made even more public to non Forum, non Discord players oooooh boy..

Overall this is one ugly, disgusting, lack of backbone thing they did with the whole release and the game itself. Extremely dissappointing to see a potential good game die like this. Even greedy companies like EA and the later incarnation of Blizzard (post WOW) dont dare to do something like this, and thats 3A titles we are talking about, as they pretty much know and fear the possible backlash of the community, should the greed be shown to such an extremes.
I will keep an eye on this thread out of curriosity how, and IF, all of this plays out.
Kudos to you for showing balls, yet still being able to be polite and civil about all this mess

Just curious, is Honda Tadakatsu guaranteed on the first 10 draw?

Both my accounts acquired her.

i didnt get a 5* and i was gonna do the tutorial just to see how the game was, but i can't even play

This game is loading so slow that it will break your enjoyment (it takes 10 minute just to log in). Bugs every where, i have to reload multiple time to finish just the tutorial. A shot of my first minion in the game.

If it only takes a couple dollars to unlock the auto features, fine. If their website is still bullcrap and won't lemme load up, screw it all.

I'm mostly just interested in seeing how they take the stories for the Takeda and Uesugi clans. Personally, I woulda preferred to have seen Kagetora instead of Kagekatsu; Kagekatsu was an ass afterall and backstabbed Kagetora to take control of the clan after Kenshin's death

logged in to give it a chance the loading and ugh of it + the paywall I knew of....yeh lost all interest - not coming back

What browsers do you guys used for this?

Getting loading issues just like Brave Ravens

I'm using chrome and I only had a problem once during the tutorial; but I've only played a little, so I'm not really a good test of the stability.

Had an interesting exchange with "smbgames" on their discord.

"smbgames" is the developer representative of Nutaku's Sengoku Providence. Our little chat gave me a little insight on just how exactly he feels about this game.

->Open Spoiler<-

At this point in time I was a lot more aggressive in my chat, because not only had he censored the suggestions channel, but he was getting his pet Moderators to delete negative comments from the chat room, and threatening to mute people.

->Open Spoiler<-

Basically, he's justifying making everything more expensive and restricting the Freemium options for casual players by saying:
We believe that our players should grind a lot more than necessary, or spend a lot more than necessary. 8 hours a day for free players!
...or at least, that's my interpretation of it.

He suggested that Free Players can actually get 5* gacha units pretty easily! How you may ask? Why, by using the shitty normal gacha and gathering 150 gacha 4* units and selling them all, of course! This should be par the course for any free player, right?

For those who don't know, there's this system called Senki Points in the game. You gain these points by selling any units. You typically only get 1 senki point when selling farmable units, like those shitty Youkai units from daily missions or generic soldiers. But gacha units sell for a lot more senki points. 3* units give 500 senki points and 4* units give 1000 senki points.

Below is the difference between farmable ingame units (Youkai) and a gacha unit. BTW, Youkai units are shittier characters of the same tier with lower stats and can't be used in one of the game modes in-game (Total War)

How many Senki points do you need to exchange for a 5* unit? You need 150000 points.

->Open Spoiler<-

Let's do the math. For argument's sake, let's say you are somehow able to pull 10 4* units for every free magatama 10-draw, which is 40 free magatama each. Since you need 150 4* senki units, you'd need to perform 15 free magatama 10 draws, which amounts to 600 free magatamas at minimum.

You heard it right folks, our boi smbgames believe all free players should be able to gather the minimum requirement of 600 free magatamas and sell all the 4* units we get to obtain a 5* unit of our choice. In a timely manner, of course.

Honestly, you're more likely to draw a 5* from that shitty 2.61% drop rate by then.

Also, he pretty much confirmed that Nutaku's gacha will never be the same as DMM's gacha as that system "failed to pass the review" so there's no hope for this game moving forward I'm afraid.

EDIT: They kicked me off their discord for like 1 day lol.

Good Gameplay
Beautiful OST
Nice Art
Funny dialogues


But the gacha....Oh come on, this game is great, why they had to ruin everything?
