i feel like its gonna eos due to not clearly listening to player and the shady yao skin drama, they should have been honest with it. also their marketing 🗿🗿🗿
Snowbreak just needs to keep updating there game and then start advertising there game so they can get the player base to get bigger. The game still has potential they just need to keep going.
They probably squeezing money to make Mechabreak, the trailer even appeared on TGA which i believe cost them a lot of money. What i don't understand is why the dev making new game instead of invest more on marketing snowbreak?
Mechabreak looks insanely cool! But after seeing how they treat Snowbreak I'm hesitant to check it out. Feels like they lost interest in Snow and want to pivot into Gundam more.
@@missingpage I dont think its wrong to move on from unsuccessful projects. They definitely put effort in and it didnt work out, so rather than throwing the rest of their money and time into a sinking ship and losing everything, doing something else instead might be a better idea. Snowbreak should've been a paid game, since its much harder to churn out constant content in snowbreak than it is for other gachas, but hindsight is 20/20
Probably because English VAs are really expensive, that's why other Japanese companies like Capcom, Square Enix, and Atlus change the English VAs for their remakes quite often while their Japanese VAs stay the same.
this, so many times, the EN VA demand so much more than they're offered. When rejected/turned down, they turn to twitter and cause outrage over being replaced.
It's kind of a shame too. A good example is the Bayonetta "problem" where the original VA wanted WAY more than they were paid for previous games, since I guess they felt they were important for getting a leading role? VA's aren't Hollywood actors, they can be pretty readily replaced. People can take that how they will, but it is what it is.
I've seen this happen before with the game Nier: Reincarnation. I dunno how well the game is actually doing but it's definitely not a popular gacha, where I only see hardcore nier fans even paying attention to it. It stopped it's eng voice over about a year ago and it's still going but I have the feeling they're just pushing through the story and the end will come soon.
With Eng or not, since the global is just an additional income for the company and all their revenue is mostly from Cn/Jp, they won't really care enough to keep it, (Couple of days ago there was a Cn stream to ask for players opinion, but we never had any eng stream, it is obv now, they even removed the survey haha) NA and EU chat is mostly dead and the player count aren't smth for them to think about, I'm happy that the game have a global release to begin with and grateful for that, in my opinion there are way more important problems that need to be addressed change/add to the game, and in general I understand and respect that there are many players who will want to have eng Va, but if that will stop u from enjoying the game Ion believe u ever really enjoyed it (It is not a deal breaker, many had eng va and removed it and many never had it and added it after years from the release).
I also played in English, largely for the same reason as you stated (purists largely don't want to understand this. I played way too many games that lack EN VOs during combat.). I do think it's largely cope to say the game is doing well financially. We don't know how much they have to spend to keep the game maintained, on top of adding new stages, units, marketing, etc. Just keeping servers up is a large financial investment since you have to pay for physical servers as well as the bandwidth. We also have to account for the quality pushed into the game itself, which imo is pretty high. These servers are also in multiple regions and trying to hold what would hopefully be thousands of players across the world. There's also the assumption made in the video that PC players are spending the same if not more than what mobile players are, and this one has always been disagreeable to me. No matter how much you slice it, JP and KR will always be mobile-focused. It's really just the U.S. that has an affinity for PC gaming, but it's also the worst place to push an anime shooter when you have other, more dominant F2P shooters. If the majority of their reveune was coming from PC, I'm almost certain it would mostly come from the West and axing EN VOs would be shooting themselves in the foot. That said the big issue at hand is even if they are making profit, that doesn't mean they're reaching their target return-of-investment. If they're making just enough to make more content, that's just throwing money back into the grinder and not much else. So they're almost certainly trying to slash their budget for a higher RoI.
@@ThoseTentacle The game is built for mobile for the Asian player base due to their busy lifestyles and wanting to play on the go. Someone can correct me if wrong but I believe much of the Asian community between CN & JP don't have much time to sit at a PC or console which is why so much of their gaming is mobile based. The PC players are def those in the west. One of the reasons the game is dying is because it played so terribly on mobile, killing much of the Asian fan base. Its better now but never as good as PC.
As someone who doesn't play with English dubs (The voice actors almost always never pronounce names right, or the lines are weird, or there's weird accentuation where it doesn't need to be or the characters just either sound too young [My pet peeve with old men sounding like 20 year old dudes] or the younger characters are voiced with an extremely high pitch that is also very loud.), this doesn't affect me, but I will concede that this is a bad thing. I don't really like to speculate why a company would do this, it is a QoL update for those who like it (whatever floats your boat), and removing it alienates that market/player base. HOWEVER, the reason they cited on Twitter was that there wasn't enough people using the EN VO and so they decided to end support for it. (makes sense in a way, if the game doesn't make millions per month like Genshin/Star Rail/PGR does, then there's no reason to do EN VO for a minority who very likely doesn't pay for any in-game stuff either. Cut losses and perhaps bring it back if the game blows up later.) There might be other reasons (abandoning the Western Market although not entirely so as to focus on the Asian market because thats where the majority of their money comes from and the money coming from the West isn't enough to justify the costs. So we might see the Global service shut down with the Asian services continuing as normal in the future.) Personally I think the company was ambitious. Its one of the few mobile games running on Unreal engine, probably the only Gacha game running on Unreal Engine, and the company decided to go with a full world wide release. I didn't really hear about them before SnowBreak, and the marketing around SnowBreak wasn't all that good unfortunately which means it didn't attract many players off the bat. Couple that with a VERY rough release patch and then spending the two next major patch cycles fixing issues in the game, getting the launcher to actually update and connect to the update server as well as trying to pull in new players despite a rough few first months. Now they're releasing another big game before Snowbreak has managed to gain any real traction as well. So we'll have to see if the game can pull off a No Man's Sky and manage to fix its reputation. But unfortunately for them, some services may have to be shut off so they can recoup costs. I am going to continue playing the game anyways because I am stopping with Honkai Impact after this last patch with Griseo. I don't really like the direction Mihoyo is taking Honkai and the recent story patches haven't been engaging enough to keep going for me. I guess my journey in Honkai ended when Kiana saved the universe.
Apparently the community is weirdly hostile towards people who want the English voice over back. Basically ignoring everything I'm saying and just focusing on that one thing.
Maybe they need more funding for their new upcoming mecha game (mech break) and snow break was just supposed to be a milk cow to fund that game, who knows 🤔
I doubt they made Snowbreak with the intention of it being a cash cow. However it is possible they recently decided to shift their resources into Mechbreak. Resulting in what's currently happening with Snowbreak.
if u like the game ur not quitting and as soon as a character ppl want comes out ppl will spend, its literally tht simple, jus saying ur quitting or not spending means literally nothing cause no one rly believes it specially if ur invested in the game and plus theres no proof to show for ur words. Personally i usually ignore these comments and the tess sales will show who rly stands on what they say. I feel like the game is honestly a lil to giving u get a ton of gems ea reset along with events for mats etc as long as ur not blowing everything on trying to build or pull/dupe every character there isnt rly any need to spend on it which is good and bad
And I really wanted to play this, what the heck is going on. Ending English support is a really dumb move. They are fans who would probably voice some of these characters for cheap. I'm really just shocked
I still think it's worth checking out, at the end of the day I still think it's a really fun game. I would just advice people to think twice before spending money, only do it if they REALLY want a skin or character. But yeah it's really dumb especially since the game comes out on steam soon.
I just wish they kept the EN voices for the skins and the like 4 lines the characters say in battle, if they want to drop em for the story events that is fine. but its just a little disorienting when fenny has been speaking in english but if you have her new skin its japanese with no subtitles like. jee thanks
So to english speakers is very hard play a game reading a text dialogue? (desde LATAM XD) Although the gameplay does not affect me, I was also quite surprised that they removed a language from the game, I hope it is because a large majority of players actually prefer it in another language and not that Snowbreak is dying, I will continue buying the monthly pass as a way of support and compensation for the time I continue playing and I will follow your steps of only buying skins that I consider that I will use them, in the same way snowbreak has always seemed like a very F2P game to get characters and their manifestations. If the game is going to fall then we will fall together until the end.
Existing En voices will still be there. But all future content wont have it, unless they change their minds and bring it back. But that's just wishful thinking at this point unless the game randomly blows up, and becomes way more successful.
English being removed is a red flag - i doubt its because of gigabyte size or voiceactor costs. This game barely has variation of quotes - ive literally memorized them. Even the japanese ones lack variety, since my friend plays it in japanese and i can hear they repeat same quotes in battle or menu screen all the time. If anything they should be adding more audio, not removing it. The only reason i could assume, might be if they want to add new characters more easily - but even then, they only add 1 new character every 40 days. And most new characters are SSR copies of purple ones anyway - 40 day events, means barely 7-8 new characters per year. I haven't seen them promote a 2nd character for next event, so removing voices doesn't make sense. What's most likely is they might be abandoning the euro and american market, cuz most of their profits are probably from Asia customers - that's the only real reason i believe they would do something stupid like remove english from the game. I like the english voiceover too - i find japanese voices too squeaky and young, while chinese language i find funny and their voiceactors usually lack emotion. Not that the english VA is perfect or anything, but i prefer it.
does it feel familiar? like....Athem from EA? yeah thats the feeling playing this game... its like 5 mounth? and allmost nothing is new there only 3x5* and 1x4* unit thats all. first impression of development of the game is most important thing.
I really suggest you read the System Notification and pause on each sentence for understanding. Your video message can be easily misunderstood. EN VA is not getting removed, it is no longer getting support. Meaning the available ones are there and stays but newer ones don't get it. Summarizing it would be "EN VA is no longer getting updates".
Launch with really really good Eng VO and then kill it, disgusting! I play the game in silence now. The back and fourth of 2 languages is killing the experience for me. They're finally giving me the character models I've wanted and the game is fun.. when I can play. The lack of content is annoying but gives me time to play other games... those other games are going to continue to get more and more of my time and money if Snowbreak/Seasun games doesn't get their act together and support global. There really is not excuse when a game like Aether Gazer, one of most fully voice acted games I know of, with more content than I have time to play, with 3 week patch updates makes roughly the same amount of money. There is a lot of really poor management going on at Seasun and poor management can be death to anything.
ok to defend weebs, i play in japanese too, i do the same for hoyo games too (be it hI3, starrail or genshin) yes i know that are not japanese companies, i just like the sound of this language. and in case of hoyo games, the voice actors are often big in the anime scene. but to your point, i can understand it, a few years a go one friend of mine read a book in english (he and i a german). as i asked him why, he said because he like the original, and me "bro you know its from an Italian"
100% agree with you with the things you say. Im really sad to see this, not only is it a blow for us EN players. Im as a starting player are used to how the operetives speaks ENG. Now just like that they just stop? I mean there isnt so mouch to VA in the first place? a few lines in game and there signature line when beating a missoin. To drop it so fast is really a red flag....
"Best" is relative. I absolutely abhor the signal orb bullshit. But other than that its fine. (I honestly prefer Honkai in this aspect because I don't have colour orbs ruining a boss run because signal orb RNGesus decided you didn't need to do it that quickly. I don't mind a boss run being rekt by a lack of skill, but not by RNG.)
@@castronimussi6050add on to the fact that new release constructs dont rely on orb RNG anymore and just rely on mechanics too. PGR is just getting better everytime
Like I said in the video regardless of wheatear or not you personally used it, getting rid of a QoL feature like an entire language, is not a good thing. Especially since the game is going to be on steam, Having English a widely spoken language is important. Believe it or not, not everyone wants or can read the small dialogue boxes in the middle of gameplay. Because SHOCKINGLY not everyone is a hardcore weeb. Look at how successful Mihoyo English Dub has been. Defending this decision is a weird hill to stand on.
A real shame. The english dub was pretty good. To bad too many global players seem to be "purist". Looking at the replies on the internet, I read too often exactly this: "Why play with EN, JP is the way as this is an anime game" I don't know if I can ever adjust to the JP voices of the new content for the old characters. Just imagine Fritia without her british accent makes me already sad. And all the other voices are also part of the characters (for me atleast), so having them speak with a different voice in the future content will be something I will have to get used to.
3:00 i think it's not such a biiiig deal, but defenitly is for some players, ASeasun is not doing any favor to Western customers, by doing again wrong decisions, in the west there are sooooo many Hardcore shooting game fans, Snowbreak did already wrong right from the beginning by limiting stamina for the little content that SBCZ has, making farming soo slow as shit, it's not my opinion but it's based on what most gamers have claimed, look they also remove complete little limited events to replace it with new complete little event update after update, ASeasun never thought lets keep at least the maps of each previous events and add it in a co-op survival mod, players are desperatly asking for more co-op, about skins they added Enya for free by clearing missions, now it feels like ASeasun are pissedoff because they needed to fix stamina and soo they removed all possibility to F2P players to get at least 1 skin out of the 4 skins they recently added, Seriously who care about that vehicule skin, if you will use it only in that event, not like Enya that is an permanent skin. ASeasun defenitly look like they don't know what they are deciding, it feels constantly like they want to punish Players mostly F2P, but if they don't make any balanced favor to F2P players it means they are shooting them selfs in the foot, because if ASeasun is not able to atract F2P players coming back or trying SBCZ, it will be just a matter of time that the whales will have enough of their nonsense decisions and loose those Whales players. F2P players are also potential supporters if they purchacing some skins or gamepass, ASeasun behavior is like making fun of them, i'm not saying it's a fact but it's how it feels for F2P that quitted or just login for a try.
For them, And in general most games have shit free skins or they never really add any free skins to the games, there are exceptions but not for most of the famous gacha games, like genshin or hsr, and for the stamina, a game that makes billions like hoyo, they added that stamina increase in literally 2 years, than hsr devs learned to add that too early to satisfy the community since most players think turn base games are not engaging enough/boring, as for Sb I think free 4* skins will come only when they have a big events not in every update, enya was 2 patches ago right? Chenxing was before haru patch, they even gave u an option to get skins by simply buying a 5€ monthly pass, stickers and new face look for the adjutant in the base, yao and feeny 4* skins so by just getting ur 90 crystals u can farm very easy those 45 tickets and get the skins from there + 30 presence, which is one of the best deals I saw in a gacha for the Mp. For events in my opinion?? They sucks completely, it is just the same damn events over and over copy and paste disappointing yes, hopefully they will improve thats why I still play it and I'm seeing improvements with each update no one can disagree ab that, The new perma event is a nice addition to play for hours everyday for 2 or 3 months at least so we have some kind of an end content we asked for, hard enemies/elites and annoying bosses. The devs decided to focus on skins which is a wise decision instead of making characters literally destroys other old units and gave u an ability to choose which character is good for u and what to skip, no operative is important that much or a game changer, but all of them works, events are okay for casuals and the lvl of grinding is okay compared to other gachas, logistics are beyond easy to get with only 2 substats to care about, and a free 4* event weapon to get to tier 5 instead of forcing u to summon and waste pulls, whales can even chill and get the tier 2 sig weps instead of 5 copies pretty easy. For Eng Va as someone who likes and understand Japanese I believe u can play the game without it if u reaaaallly like the gamestyle but other than that it is unacceptable to remove it when u have a global and an eng community for the game, this is stupid yes. but it is reality for now sadly... there is 2 options no more, play with or not... Many games didn't shine before at least 1 year, so hopefully they will meet our expectations properly to keep us playing it for some time.
Wish Genshin Impact had done the same. . . The issue with English voice over is their direction , not their actors/actress I think, Japanese and Chinese has better in game inmmersion because their directors and voice actors knows very well what are doing as well what we like as players It's simple as that.
Snowbreak makes me Bipolar with all these decisions😭😭 One second im excited, the next im talking about EoS
i feel like its gonna eos due to not clearly listening to player and the shady yao skin drama, they should have been honest with it.
also their marketing 🗿🗿🗿
its gonna go down just like other gacha game that failed.
Snowbreak just needs to keep updating there game and then start advertising there game so they can get the player base to get bigger. The game still has potential they just need to keep going.
TOF still keeps EN VA despite being "dying"
PGR is now adding EN dialogue in Cutscenes and Trailers
They probably squeezing money to make Mechabreak, the trailer even appeared on TGA which i believe cost them a lot of money.
What i don't understand is why the dev making new game instead of invest more on marketing snowbreak?

There is a lot of really poor management going on at Seasun and poor management can be death to anything.
The game at the beginning look so fun, what it name
Indivisible
ok to defend weebs, i play in japanese too, i do the same for hoyo games too (be it hI3, starrail or genshin) yes i know that are not japanese companies, i just like the sound of this language. and in case of hoyo games, the voice actors are often big in the anime scene.
but to your point, i can understand it, a few years a go one friend of mine read a book in english (he and i a german). as i asked him why, he said because he like the original, and me "bro you know its from an Italian"
100% agree with you with the things you say.
Im really sad to see this, not only is it a blow for us EN players. Im as a starting player are used to how the operetives speaks ENG. Now just like that they just stop? I mean there isnt so mouch to VA in the first place? a few lines in game and there signature line when beating a missoin. To drop it so fast is really a red flag....
The developer really doesn't want their game to be successful.
Upsetting
It is not that downhill
Have you tried PGR? It has the best combat of all gachas in my opinion
I've actually started playing it recently. Was planning on making a video talking about it soon.
@@missingpage Cool
"Best" is relative. I absolutely abhor the signal orb bullshit. But other than that its fine. (I honestly prefer Honkai in this aspect because I don't have colour orbs ruining a boss run because signal orb RNGesus decided you didn't need to do it that quickly. I don't mind a boss run being rekt by a lack of skill, but not by RNG.)
@@HunterSteel29 in PGR it's always a lack of skill, the RNG of the orbs doesn't affect that.
@@castronimussi6050add on to the fact that new release constructs dont rely on orb RNG anymore and just rely on mechanics too. PGR is just getting better everytime
Who needs EN VA?? japanese is enough
purists?
most people didnt even use english VOs in the first place.
in my opinion not much was lost.
Like I said in the video regardless of wheatear or not you personally used it, getting rid of a QoL feature like an entire language, is not a good thing. Especially since the game is going to be on steam, Having English a widely spoken language is important. Believe it or not, not everyone wants or can read the small dialogue boxes in the middle of gameplay. Because SHOCKINGLY not everyone is a hardcore weeb. Look at how successful Mihoyo English Dub has been. Defending this decision is a weird hill to stand on.
I have only heard bad things about this game.
taking off the english dub means nothing, only 5 people on the US play the game anyway...
snowbreak become honkai impact
A real shame. The english dub was pretty good.
To bad too many global players seem to be "purist".
Looking at the replies on the internet, I read too often exactly this: "Why play with EN, JP is the way as this is an anime game"
I don't know if I can ever adjust to the JP voices of the new content for the old characters.
Just imagine Fritia without her british accent makes me already sad. And all the other voices are also part of the characters (for me atleast), so having them speak with a different voice in the future content will be something I will have to get used to.
good to know that I shouldn't spend money
Omg i always use english va in any anime game i played 😭😭😭 and i actually like scz english vas
it just dropped on steam with almost all positive reviews lol
3:00 i think it's not such a biiiig deal, but defenitly is for some players, ASeasun is not doing any favor to Western customers, by doing again wrong decisions, in the west there are sooooo many Hardcore shooting game fans, Snowbreak did already wrong right from the beginning by limiting stamina for the little content that SBCZ has, making farming soo slow as shit, it's not my opinion but it's based on what most gamers have claimed,
look they also remove complete little limited events to replace it with new complete little event update after update, ASeasun never thought lets keep at least the maps of each previous events and add it in a co-op survival mod, players are desperatly asking for more co-op,
about skins they added Enya for free by clearing missions, now it feels like ASeasun are pissedoff because they needed to fix stamina and soo they removed all possibility to F2P players to get at least 1 skin out of the 4 skins they recently added,
Seriously who care about that vehicule skin, if you will use it only in that event, not like Enya that is an permanent skin.
ASeasun defenitly look like they don't know what they are deciding, it feels constantly like they want to punish Players mostly F2P, but if they don't make any balanced favor to F2P players it means they are shooting them selfs in the foot, because if ASeasun is not able to atract F2P players coming back or trying SBCZ, it will be just a matter of time that the whales will have enough of their nonsense decisions and loose those Whales players.
F2P players are also potential supporters if they purchacing some skins or gamepass, ASeasun behavior is like making fun of them, i'm not saying it's a fact but it's how it feels for F2P that quitted or just login for a try.
For them, And in general most games have shit free skins or they never really add any free skins to the games, there are exceptions but not for most of the famous gacha games, like genshin or hsr, and for the stamina, a game that makes billions like hoyo, they added that stamina increase in literally 2 years, than hsr devs learned to add that too early to satisfy the community since most players think turn base games are not engaging enough/boring, as for Sb I think free 4* skins will come only when they have a big events not in every update, enya was 2 patches ago right? Chenxing was before haru patch, they even gave u an option to get skins by simply buying a 5€ monthly pass, stickers and new face look for the adjutant in the base, yao and feeny 4* skins so by just getting ur 90 crystals u can farm very easy those 45 tickets and get the skins from there + 30 presence, which is one of the best deals I saw in a gacha for the Mp.
For events in my opinion?? They sucks completely, it is just the same damn events over and over copy and paste disappointing yes, hopefully they will improve thats why I still play it and I'm seeing improvements with each update no one can disagree ab that, The new perma event is a nice addition to play for hours everyday for 2 or 3 months at least so we have some kind of an end content we asked for, hard enemies/elites and annoying bosses.
The devs decided to focus on skins which is a wise decision instead of making characters literally destroys other old units and gave u an ability to choose which character is good for u and what to skip, no operative is important that much or a game changer, but all of them works, events are okay for casuals and the lvl of grinding is okay compared to other gachas, logistics are beyond easy to get with only 2 substats to care about, and a free 4* event weapon to get to tier 5 instead of forcing u to summon and waste pulls, whales can even chill and get the tier 2 sig weps instead of 5 copies pretty easy.
For Eng Va as someone who likes and understand Japanese I believe u can play the game without it if u reaaaallly like the gamestyle but other than that it is unacceptable to remove it when u have a global and an eng community for the game, this is stupid yes. but it is reality for now sadly... there is 2 options no more, play with or not...
Many games didn't shine before at least 1 year, so hopefully they will meet our expectations properly to keep us playing it for some time.
The EN dub was super low quality anyways, and they probably have data on how many people use the EN dub and it was low enough to consider dropping it
Bruh... How's the SAG-AFTRA Strike affecting VAs Internationally...?
This is it... English Voice Acting getting axed...
nothing of value was lost
Wish Genshin Impact had done the same. . .
The issue with English voice over is their direction , not their actors/actress
I think, Japanese and Chinese has better in game inmmersion because their directors and voice actors knows very well what are doing as well what we like as players
It's simple as that.
Eww Genshin
@@denji4740 How cute 😂
@@TheRambest Zenless Zone Zero is okay though
@@denji4740 Hadn't played yet but I would when CBT is finished
So can't comment about 🤷
The english voice over in fontaine is literally better than any other voice over. Stop coping, purist.
Imagine playing with english dub lmaoooo
Ah yes Imagine playing a game in a language you understand LMFAO
all i heard were cries of a little girl... dont like the desition? just quit the game, its not that hard to do...
🤡
Game without english va is trash nuff said
Welp no more money coming from me. It'll shutdown next year imo
I can already tell this comment won't age well.
@@saltykanchou2717 lol probably won't
