Thread: Sengoku Providence announced!

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.

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.

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.

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.
