Blue Archive new thread Anonymous 07/21/2024 (Sun) 09:42:41 Id: 7e86db No. 992219
Making a new thread for the hit game taking the comiket doujin world by storm! The last thread >>793596 hit the bump limit, so I decided to make a new one as well considering we're close to the anniversary events >What is Blue Archive? A mobile game on iOS and Android, you play as a male teacher in a world where the only other humans are all female. Command your students as you take down enemies and learn about the world you've been thrust into. You're sure to find a favorite among the many students available to you. Also the soundtrack of the game is easily top tier. >Is this a gacha game? Yeah, it's a mobage, but F2P users are capable of winning as well on their own pace, and in the late-game, the gap between F2P and P2W is very small indeed - perhaps even nonexistent. Many of the students in this game are available for free (and useful on raids) without even rolling once in the gacha system (Over time you have a chance at unlocking students by beating the hard mode levels) >Are the girls cute? Yes For the loli fan out there, sate your thirsts on this game with the most lolis per capita out of every mobage out there. For the hagfan or oppailoli fan, this game can cater to your needs as well. >Isn't this game censored? Since China doesn't like nudity in any fashion, the game was split so that the chinks have their own censored version. The NA and JP versions are unaffected and the lolis untouched. >Can I play it on my PC? Yes, with the mobile phone to PC emulator LDPlayer or Bluestacks >How do I play? Here are some useful links https://bluearchive.nexon.com/home https://rentry.org/how2playba
Also, they're officially reducing the gap between servers to 3 months. This is pretty big news. Apparently the plan is to reduce the time that total assaults and certain pickups take.
>>1065808 I hate it. I've already submitted multiple support tickets from various email addresses telling them it's a terrible idea.
>>1065811 Why, because you want more time to hoard pyros and for meta strategies to be devised that you can follow to the letter? Some of us want to enjoy the story and new characters while they're still fresh. I hope they eventually reduce it to a one month gap or even less.

>>1065812 Losing three months of farming every resource in the game is devastating. It takes 3400 AP of Normal missions to farm enough gear to raise one unit to T9, assuming all three drops are useful (they aren't; your AP will be wasted on unneeded slot 3 amulets). It takes 5000 AP of Commission to farm enough exp reports to raise one unit to level 90. It takes 6700 AP of Commissions to farm the 16 million credits for the gear upgrades and 9 million for the levels. Maxing skills is another 40M credits, so 10800 AP of Commissions. 26,000 AP total. For one character. That's over 21 days' worth of AP. Fortunately we get 2x weeks to bring it down to "only" 11 days. Meaning three months of skipped "dead weeks" would be enough for eight entire characters. I do not even have a single character in my entire roster who is level 90 with maxed skills and gear, and now we're skipping enough farming time to get that eight times over. And then there's hard missions. Three months is the time it takes to recruit a 3*, or to farm enough to upgrade a unit by one star, if she has one Hard node. If you need Kayoko at UE40 for Insane Hod to get her CC duration high enough, and let's pretend gacha elephs bring her to 3*, then you need 142 days of farming both nodes. An acceleration of 3 months means losing 64% of that farming time. Skipping three months' worth of resources because ADHD faggots care more about "hype" than about playing the game cripples the ability to actually build characters to a usable state. And note for the Kayoko example that having only 3 months' gap means that there's not enough warning to farm her to the level of being good enough, if you wait until the raid hits JP. That's not "following meta strategies to the letter". That's just what it takes to get the most accessible unit for the boss's gimmick to a suitable level to run it at the third-highest difficulty. >Some of us want to enjoy the story and new characters The new characters you can't ever afford to pull for because the kikes at Nexon have started running three Fest banners at once, in a game where it takes six months of f2p to save up enough for three guarantees, and are now planning to accelerate so we have less than six months to save for them and all the other banners in between including multiple Limiteds?
>>1065911 >Skipping three months' worth of resources because ADHD faggots care more about "hype" than about playing the game cripples the ability to actually build characters to a usable state. It's not about ADHD or hype, it's about burnout, enjoying the story before it gets spoiled for you, and quicker gratification. I came from FGO NA which is a whopping two years behind the JP schedule. What do you think that means if/when JP eventually reaches EoS? What do you think that means for the people who want to but can't enjoy the newer content and instead are probably stuck on a rerun or a dead week or month? It's embarrassing and sad. It's why I jumped ship off of the NA server three years ago even though I had invested my time in it since it began. That was hard to do but they clearly never wanted to bridge that two year gap despite the fact that they'd be making players suffer the gap weeks with absolutely no content in it. I want to experience BA at the same time and get the same benefits as JP players. There's really no reason for any gap since translations can be done on the fly and ought to be done on the fly considering how much money the game makes and how many resources Nexon has to bear. Short term loss in resources is fine but I doubt they won't compensate in some way, like increasing the span of double/triple resource periods. F2P meta whales already have all the meta students so they won't suffer, plus they'll probably have tons of pyros saved up by now even if they have shitty luck. Ask the anon who posts his raids ITT how many pyros he has saved up and in how many rolls was he able to pull Armed Hoshino and Kuroko
>>1065787 >no mention of Mutsuki's tummy slits It's impressive that even despite my low expectations for shitty twitter maymays, I can still be disappointed.

Perorodzilla Torment Well we've got the new Premium students, so it's time to make a Torment raid more accessible to F2P players. The raid itself is quite easy, just hyperbuff Hoshino and Peroro will die. The only RNG stuff, is if Kayoko will be hit by the laser or not, or if the mini Peroros will die too early. All in all, not a hard battle, maybe not as easy as Hiero Torment, but easier than Hod or Goz. This will be my final clear that I will post, I have a lot of things that I want to accomplish IRL, and sadly this gacha is taking too much of my time, even if it's just 30 minutes a day(unless there is a story event or Raid), it's still too much, I would rather play an actual game, or got though a VN like Utawarerumono with the free time I save from not engaging with this gacha anymore. I will also not be engaging with any more gachas in the foreseeable future. Six or seven years ago, I decided to see how it is to go through the hell that is mobile garbage mobage so I went through GBF, after 3-4 years got burned out of raiding, so I started Blue Archive, and now I am burnt out of it as well. There are definitely ups and downs, especially when receiving the free pulls once or twice a year, and while serotonin and dopamine were released by my brain whenever I got the pink envelope, it's simply not worth it. I now know what it is like, so it's pointless to continue to engage with it. Do I regret the time I wasted? No, but I will be grateful for the time I will save in the future. Do I recommend other anons to install it? No, and I don't think I have ever recommended it. Will I be watching the story events on jewtube? Probably not, I am tired of it. I also didn't bother with the GBF events when I left the gacha. Is there something I am proud of? Only, that I have never spent a cent on the gachas, I only wasted time. The closest thing is that I bought Granblue Fantasy Relink, but that was on it's own merits and long after I left the gacha, so there were no in-game rewards to incentivize me. Maybe, I will do the same with Blue Archive if they ever have their own Relink. Could I just take it easy, ignore the raid and just enjoy the story? No, I am too much of a tryhard to do that, plus, not engaging with the raids means I get fewer pulls overall, meaning I get fewer students. This is not some bait post, I have already left the Club, signed out and uninstalled the gacha, so there is no turning back for me. I might reply to a few anons here and there, but I will not install it ever again. Have a nice day, anons!

>>1067558 See ya Sensei, at least this means I'll have an easier time getting plat on future raids.
>>1067558 All that effort for nothing, bet you wishes you rolled for students you wanted rather than the meta students, eh? Maybe that would have increased your enjoyment if you treated it more like a game and not a job. But you fell for the GBF meme before and that tells me you are just gullible like that. Hopefully you find a game that is actually fun and well made and doesn't require you to make a full time job out of it to compete in the useless meta dicksucker competitions.
