Well, now i see this "game balance" myself...
I had 5 egacha tickets saved (started saving them after the last Gambit) so i used all of them, and got all 3 R SECs (feeling very sorry that i had to choose http://harem-battle.club/wiki/PeroPe...o:Yae-Marikawa over http://harem-battle.club/wiki/PeroPe...o:Nodoka-Otomo because of the bloody Gambit Multiplier (i really like Nodoka and wanted to get her very much since i saw her, and besides, she is SR, while Yae is just an R and looks not so special at all, but meh - had to make my experiment clean) and what did i got? Exactly. No new SR cards at all, no SR SECs, but still, an insane (for me, of course) Kairo multiplier of 5.62! Blargh, this is just stupid. While i only got 3k Kairo during the Phase 1, i now already have 10k by just using up half of my max Stamina, 25 Radars and like 10 Glasses! Welp... that's just "meh". The Gambits seems to be totally unwinnable if you are low-average level f2p without a decent pile of items kept unused for numerous events, but turns nothing should you toss some dosh @ Nutaku... =__=" And if you can and will spend ALOT, like our top players do, then there's even nothing much to compete for left, except the ranking which almost gives you nothing (except, maybe, some useless - for a player of THAT level SR "Guaranteed" Gacha tickets and such) and is, technically, just a "battle of wallets", which, for me, just resembles a bunch of kids playing in a pile of sand, and arguing like "my dad is cooler - he works as a boss in the office - no, MY dad is cooler, he works as a banker!" while showing off their pricy toys to each other... Which, for me, doesn't make much sense or entertainment...
Sure, i am awful as a buisnessman, and sure i understand that "whales" and other cashers will still shower Nutaku and other similiar companies with money, and those companies will still get their profit from these f2p games like that, but for me - these games are just ruined. I'd really perfer if these games just had a subscription fee, but, at least, were balanced well. But... who cares.
So yeah, my only problems are that these games look good enough for me to want to play them until i get to know how they work well enough, are addictive enough so once i start playing them it's quite hard for me to quit, and a need in something like that, that would help me waste my time every day and meet new people with interests similiar to mine...
Well, my goal during this Gambit is to try and get that 1k Ranking reward card (since she is really cute and is totally worth getting - for me, at least) and to check, if i can actually get enough Kairo to get 51k kairo reward card by saving all eGacha tickets that i can get during all other Events and using them all only during Phase 2 of Gambits... If i'll manage to pull that trick, i'll, probably, stay in PPS for a while. If not - well, then "the end is nigh" and i'll do as i've planned - complete the Story Mode (supposedly, two more girls/stages, since the last achievement says "Free 16 girls from the Naked King") and then - quit. Time will tell...
