    As a woman, Ras is actually one of the few MCs I don’t cringe to tbh. The dude actually has a plot line for himself, and a valid reason for not fully understanding human emotion. His “lack of emotion” isn’t from the devs trying to make him a self-insert, it’s acknowledged in the game as one of his flaws and (minor spoiler) one of the reasons everything went to shit in the first place. It was even explored in later chapters.
    I find the pacing of the story is weird sometimes bc it’s not a fully animated game and relies mainly on jpeg and texts, but the general plot is one of the better ones in gacha games imo. And iirc, only like two female characters (and one male) simp for him, other major female characters all have their own plot lines and relationships. The writing for female characters is pretty good for a waifu gacha game, or at least better than some of the other gachas I play like Genshin or FEH.
    The gearing system, PVP balancing, and frequent release of hard counter characters though… gosh, those could be improved for sure.

      I played this game since it was launched, got lucky with the gacha pulls and got like 15 moonlight characters as a complete f2p over the course of 2-3 years of playing. But do you know why I still quit the game? The gear grinding in this game was a complete torture. I spent 2-3 years playing the game but I only have 2 pieces of equipment over 20 speed while other players have a complete set of gears with 20+ speed on multiple characters... Like, the pain of dealing with minimum roll, the pain of even getting gear with a good substats to begin with. The layer of RNG on top of RNG of getting the right set, the right sub, the right main stat, and a good high roll is all over the place that I just quit the game entirely. And ofc, if I can't get good gears then having 16+ ml units is just pointless lol. I ranted there soz.

    As a long time player, E7 gives away so many skystones (premium currency) that being a f2p is completely viable. it's why the rates are manageable and eventually you will reach a point where you can get every new rgb on release due to the large amount of skystones you can rack up. However, it's clear you didn't witness World Arena which makes sense since that's the end game for E7. It's the reason I still play the game and one of the biggest reason this game is alive. Also, keep in mind this game is 4+ years old and the developers I would say care about the lifespan of the game enough to add new things to it. So of course it's a time sink, this is meant to be a main gacha game not a side one. Lastly, the rates themselves are not the problem, players don't particularly complain about the rates, they complain about the gear rng which is atrocious. Fuck the gear rng.

    The ai focuses on using skills on enemies of weaker or neutral element that's why you would have your team not focus them. Depending on the character it might not since they might have ignore elemental disadvantage or target due to combat readiness (turn order) among other things. So while the ai isn't great it is still much better than others I have seen.

    But of course, theres also the beautifully drawn waifus and decent gameplay with well done visuals. Maybe the grinding might be too much for most people, but I am okay with it cuz I am able to finish the PVE content and dont plan on becoming a top PVP player anytime soon anyway.

    Honestly this game is fun as heck and has a great combat system with the “combat readiness” bar, which lets me make naturally slow units out speed better openers. And odd as it sounds, the gacha system is really only important in pvp, pve is very possible by just building one or two units of each class and making sure you read enemy skills. All in all, it’s great for a long term game if you only play one or two gachas, though I don’t recommend it if you play more than that or if you are incredibly intent on getting every unit. I’ve played since the first guilty gear collab, restarted when COVID started, and have spent prob round 100 bucks, I don’t have every unit but the amount of versatility this game allows with team comps makes up for lack of good rates. Though you do get some selective summons as you progress and there or occasional 70 free summon events and web events if you are intent on getting every unit ;).

    @marus_circle Před rokem +3

    Hi Stix I just want to add (as a veteran player) though the gacha rate IS bad, for the most part its really not an issue because the game shits out a lot of free 5 star heroes through events or just celebrations or just by being generous. If you actually take a look in the in-game shop there's an item that allows you to purchase a 4-5 star hero book which increases your chances exponentially, which all it takes is accumulate summoning mileage. and for new players the total amount of free 5 start heroes one can get is actually 8 without having to spend sky stones whatsoever. and the fact that by playing the game it consistently gives you a lot of bookmarks and sky stones the rates doesn't feel as bad at all, especially when a 10 summon is 950 skystones compared to say Honkai Impacts 2800 crystals for an equally abysmal rate. But I will agree with the majority of players that the gear rng is the one that takes the most mental toll.

    First, I'll say I agree with everything you've said in this video. But, for newer players, I would highly suggest that you go on their discord or follow e7 streamers to get into a guild and get as much help as you can.
    Getting 5* characters in this game is actually pretty easy compared to other games. The rate will fool you but they give a lot of opportunities to get a 5*. Also, getting pity for units is pretty easy once you get stronger and reserve resources.
    I am f2p in this game and I haven't had too many bad moments, also the community is pretty cool overall.
    The main issues with the game is the RNG. Get. Ready. To. Mald. There is an innate 15% chance to resist that every character has so you could have a unit that stuns and has a high chance to do so but then a character that doesn't have any effect resistance will have a chance to resist. It is angering, so get ready for that.
    But overall, it's one of my favorite gachas ever.

    as an Endgame and High Champion player, in which Emperor rank doesn't exist yet, who played this game from release(2018), It was a best gacha that no one can compete until after 4 years which is now 2022, it became the worst after they messed up a lot.
    Balancing. They gave free 5* ML exchanger after they nerfed a certain 5* ML. After like few patches when they nerf another 5* ML and didn't give free 5* ML exchanger, Reddit were raging that they want ML 5* exchanger because their character got nerf. So they got scared nerfing another 5* ML characters in which some of the characters are not balanced in the game. They only buff and don't nerf ML 5* Characters even tho they are broken. Then they started releasing limited units also that is broken and can't be nerf. Reddit: "why nerf them, they are limited units!".
    Pity. They became so generous that they implemented pity summons that made the summoning not exciting anymore when everyone can get it anyway because reddit kept complaining "ohh i dont have a 5* ML", "New players should be able to catch up" now what happen?
    During Arena, Guild Wars, RTA, you will see the same team over and over again that you can't experiment anymore because of the Meta, powerspike and everyone can use the broken meta characters because of the pity system complained by Reddit. Now they kept releasing OP ML5* and limited where they don't want to nerf and everyone can get it. RTA and Guild Wars were way more fun before until they mess up the gacha system and releasing broken characters that is unhealthy for the game.
    The RNG on this game will make you rage also like in RTA, 5% will proc 5 times in a row? how is that possible? The gears are also hard RNG in which thousand runs for 1 - 2 good gears only after enhancement. Like even you Top Up lot of money here, gears rng will always be the problem. Abyss is also RNG heavy like you don't want your dps to get hit but they decided to hit dps instead.
    Many of the top players and guild, including me already quit the game because they kept on messing up the updates. and there are no new exciting contents. They only listen to korean or reddit players who suggest bad things on this game and made the game worse. Epic Seven was very fun before but not anymore.

    I am in for 8 Month now ! I absolutley fell in love with it. But its not for everyone. I would say its more of a hardcore game. You really have to invest a lot of time, especially in the begining but the road is so much fun - the world is stuffed with different things to do and you get so much rewards everywhere. The great think in my opinon is that you allways have a goal , first you wanna be strong enought to beat the adventure mode, then you want to do hunts, then you build arena teams, then you try to tackle the abysss and finally you start to go to PVP. While the rates might sound terrible so far as a low spender (15 Euros a month) I could pull for at least every 2nd unit coming my way ! For that you have to do dailys and weeklies and reach a decent rank at arena (PVE) and you need to refresh the shop. I am coming from Genshin and trust me you can pull 5 times more, they are really generous. In this 8 month i had at least 3 events where they gave away 70 x Pulls. I usually do autofights for the grindy hunts and then play another game aside. A big plus is the community and the great E7 Content Creators who help a lot with your progression to the game. I would give it a shot if you wanna Pull a lot, like Waifus and love cool Animation. Stay away if you hate grindy games.

  • @gitsy8055
    @gitsy8055 Před rokem

    To be fair, epic seven's PvP AI works as follows - if a unit is of a certain element, let's say fire, they will target earth first since it is weak to them. Then fire because it is equal, then light and dark because they are neutral to them. If there is no other than an ice unit remaining it will be targeted, if all units are of one element the one with the highest attack will be targeted, although some units like a.cidd and a.coli will aim for the target with highest speed. the same goes for cilias provoke.
    I must say that I am unsure about if equal element gets attacked before light or dark since I never paid attention to that specifically, so please do correct me if I am wrong.

    One thing these older gear based games could learn from some of the newer ones is too forego the min and max rolls on stat lines. Just praying for the gear to drop with the subs you want and the rolling into the sub you want is hard enough without having to pray for a max roll at each step of the way. Also imo this game should drop the need for charms needed to upgrade gear. Most games just require you to use 1 resource such as gold or mana for some reason E7 require 2 which is pretty annoying. Lastly they added a gear pity in recent but all that does is garentee an epic piece of gear in the slot you need. I think the crafting pity should allow you garentee 2 out of 4 of your subs or you main stat on right side gear. Probably not the best place to be writing this but here we are lol

    TLDR: There's really no point for FOMO because summoning for RGB hero in this game is basically guaranteed. If you missed a limited hero or missed a limited collab, it doesn't matter. Custom Banner exist to allow you to create your own banner(yes you can create a banner with 3 limited heroes on a single banner if you want). They rerun collabs so much that new player will start realizing that collabs are becoming less and less special. I mean fuck man, they're rerunning Re:Zero right now and I know for a fact that a rerun for Slime collab will be right around the corner. New players are guaranteed 3 5* heroes that are built specifically for Hunting, Sigret, Cermia and Vivian.
    There's literally no point in you in pulling banners in early to late game. Unless you're in the late late game where you're building 1-shot teams for hunt, Guild Wars, Arena and Expedition, pulling banners in the early stage is a dumb idea.
    I am a day 1 global player and I can say that the PvE and gacha in this game are absolutely amazing. PvP wise, it's the most broken is the absolute worse part of the game.
    Gacha is pretty easy in this game, as long as you're not chasing Moonlight heroes then you can essentially get all RGB heroes while being F2P. Though that is expecting that you know how to hold back during the earlier stage and not do the dumb shit of immediately wasting your resources.
    I obviously easy to see that new players are the one that's at a more advantage because old players like me were force to do all of those impossible bullshit, example being the fact that back then pity didn't even exist. There's also the fact that new players can immediately get their first 5* Moonlight hero.
    Also limited banners in this game is useless as limited doesn't mean shit when they keep rerunning those same limited banners. I mean fuck, there's no point in having that FOMO with collab banners when they rerun the same collab for like the 6 times and now they're rerunning the Re:Zero collab the 2nd time which would follow up with the 2nd rerun of the Slime collab. Also another thing that just removes FOMO is the Custom banners where players can literally create their own banners. Meaning if you wish to create banner that has 3 limited heroes in a single banner, then yes you can do that. Same with Mystic Summon that allows for Custom Banners and even now choosing which hero to pity, either the 5* or 4*.
    The biggest problem in this game that this PvP whining fucks seems to keep forgetting is gears. SG keeps giving us ways to get more gears but doesn't solve the root problem which is the horrid RNG in gear substats drop and enhancing. I basically almost have all RGB heroes, I have all the collab heroes and despite all of that I only have like 10 actually built hero in the game.

      I come from Genshin where everything is worse. The rates are worse and the rng is worse and the greed is worse. So while I can understand where ur coming from I don't agree with you at all. And maybe that's because I'm a new player and not a vet or maybe it's my luck but I doubt that. People complain way to much about gear rng. I roll multiple pieces of good gear anytime I craft gear for myself. And I have so many xp penguins that I can lvl any unit up to max. I have atleast 10 geared units and I just started playing like 4-5 months ago. Outside of gear rng the other thing I disagree with is the Collab and limited units. no one wants to wait a year for 1 character or a Collab. Running collabs and limited units in a smaller time frame allows for people that have the unit to pull for dupes or allow anyone who didn't or wasn't playing a chance to get the new shiny character. Which honestly after 6 months has probably fallen off. Is rimuru great. Yeah sure. Did they create and solution to him. Yeah they did. Did they then create a solution to the solution for rimuru, you bet, and actually within a shorter timespan than 6 months. A character doesn't stop feeling special because other people have it. It stops feeling special when what it can do no longer feels worth it. SSB will always feel amazing and like a limited unit because of how she plays and what she does not because only a few people have here. Just silly. Again tho I understand where you're coming from, just disagree due to my own experiences.

    Story wise E7 is just standard, after chapter one and two, MC not being able to clap everything (even nerfed or not) made me skip some parts of the next chapters cuz it felt like a text dump for nothing, people doing political shit and power greed battles is nice and all but when MC just wants to let them know that there was a being who already destroyed the planet 6 times and another approaching greater danger and asking if they want an alliance for when the time comes, the proper answer should be "well shit, I guess I don't have a choice" instead of tricking, lying and making MC do their shit for meaningless things.
    MC's Profile: Ex embodiment of the goddess who after gaining humanity was trained by a god of war who can clap no diff a galactic individual who binded his soul to a star for unlimited power, do you see this guy really struggling in the world?

    Guild wars is or was a huge part of the game. My entire Discord community of guilds was essentially centred around it at the time (and well, it's still going today). Unfortunately very P2W, especially with the 5 star moonlight characters. I did dolphin unfortunately. Still had rotten luck with that and more. One banner in particular drained me a lot as the artefact doesn't have pity. This is my perspective from before the game turned 2 and they slowly became more generous, as these games are wont to do. I got burnt out by the insane RNG, as well as their back-to-back controversies from the time - eg Alencia refund fiasco.

    Day 1 player here.. Three weeks is too short amount of time for this game I think. But oh well. There's been SO many improvements in the past two years. The game is incredibly different than when it first started out and is a lot more fair to f2p now than before. Newer players don't know how lucky they are...
    gacha rates are low but they give u so many freebie 5* star tickets over the course of the year that just playing passively you'll be earning 5*'s without trying...only downside is once you have enough heroes you start to get duplicates lol.
    Also the pity system at 120 pulls for RGB units is very manageable. Especially at higher ranks of pvp where the weekly skystone rewards increase exponentially and it takes about ~8000 skystone to pull for an rgb 5 star unit, where you use your skystone to roll for bookmarks in the secret shop. Dailies give 50 skystone, hunts give skystone, story gives skystone, free bookmarks are given constantly in events. Stuff is everywhere but you do have to be playing the game to see them. Basically, the longer you play the game the easier it gets and the less time sink it is.
    I'd also note that real time pvp does exist and you unlock it at ar lvl 65 if i recall correctly. And it's quite literally the "end game" of the end game in Epic 7. Not newbie friendly since ur competing with people who have had months to grind. But it's still fun.
    ml (dark/light) pity now exists too for the standard ml banner. 30 summons for 4-5* guaranteed. It's gotten easier with every update. I will say though the grind for your first ml hero as a new player is...still substantial to say the least. For veterans it's about two months.

Save your skystones and ONLY use them for refreshing garo's shop to get summoning bookmarks ( The horned bartender in the lobby/main menu ) You can absolutely hit pity for almost every individual character banner. Except when they got a collab event and release 2/3 units at once. I get the 5 star without fail even if I have to hit the pity which is 121 summons.
    Don't use 950 skystones to buy 50 bookmarks directly. Thats a scam, plus when refreshing shop you might chance upon a decent gear to buy and some mystic bookmarks. People that complain no skystones and 5* need to manage their skystones better.

    To be fair the gacha is not that bad in this game and they give you a lot of tickets and free pulls with which you can get 5* characters and there are many 4* and even 3* that are really useful and even needed for pve. The problem is not getting your units (unless they are an specific moonlight) the big problem is to gear them. A very frustrating process, specially at the beginning since aside from the awful rng and the long auto farming, it is also a resource intensive process and you even have to pay gold for swapping your equipment (horrible mechanic that shouldn’t exist).
    The game requires dedication but that could be a good thing or a bad one depending of what you’re looking for.

    Epic seven is an amazing gacha game with a great sound track.
    Still very populated for pvp. World arena is much better than regular arena because it is real time pvp so both players are playing their teams, but it is very pay to win.
    My problem with epic seven is the bad gacha rates. Yea we get more gacha currency. But to hit pity would probably take a month or two without using skystones for more resources. And trust me, you'll hit pity a lot. Or at least get very close. I went 121 pulls without a since 5* hero or 5* artifact. Not even a random artifact.
    Speaking of gear, you thought artifact farming in Genshin was bad. Hunts is the most played content after world arena. The characters aren't the pay to win in epic seven but the gear is. Whales will have many more chances at getting the best gear ever while ftp, good luck on that dream.
    Worst part of epic seven is it's time sink. It's the polar opposite of Genshin in a way. Genshin has no content but that means you can play it and another game at the same time. Epic seven, to use all your daily energy, it might take half a day. Even if it was my only game, I wouldn't have time for it. Work you know.
    This is why I like Azur Lane. You get the same play time but you don't feel pressured to play all the time. You can store your oil to 25k, it's hard limit. You can hold your mail indefinitely up to 1000 mail.
    I have 100k+ oil in my mail. So I could play for a few weeks with what I have. Or take it slow and play something else while I wait for more oil. I don't HAVE TO play it.
    Currently, while I'd love to see rem ram and Emilia, epic seven is on daily pull only mode right now.
    Mostly because rank up packs have to be purchased with a week after you reach the pack's max level so you either buy or miss (I obviously want to buy) so I'm not playing there. No time so not playing there, even though I should since I usually do events and only events.
    The main plus side of epic seven, is I can let it play at night.
    One auto play session can last a couple hours with the right difficulty and right team. Sometimes even a whole night if you set up a unkillable team with low dps on a hunt.
    But right now, my time is focused on azur lane and honkai and arknights with a dash of girls Frontline. Sorry Iseria, I'll see you later my sweet

    As some have already pointed out, getting units isn't really that much of a problem. Of course, the game has 3 years under its belt so for someone starting today it will take some time to catch up on units. Even so, they keep making it easier for new players to get good units.
    The REAL issue is the gear. Getting GOOD gear for a lot of the units is hellish. And you need to gear a lot of units if you want to do PvE content and have a good pool of units to choose for PvP. It's the one aspect of the game they barely improve, so it remains bad (even if it was much worse before). For example, for the recent Awaken update they showered us with MolaGoras (the material for enhancing skills), they basically gave a really good 5* unit for each of the main Hunts for free, gave us some group selective summons to get the units we wanted, gave us a bunch of materials, and so on. While on the gearing aspect of the game they only implemented a pity system that barely makes any difference because it only ensures you get an epic gear of the set you want every 20 or so pieces you craft... which isn't much... really.
    Oh, and did I mention you have to pay gold to unequip gear unless you have the free unequip buff? Sure, you can get a 12h free unequip buff every 2 weeks or so and they sometimes give a whole weekend of free unequip buff, but that still forces you to sit down and do your gearing when they want, not when you can.
    Anyway, it sucks beating on the game because other than that, it's really good. The production value it's great, they care about the story which is rare in a gacha, they engage with the community, etc. But it's just so... tiresome...
    BTW, last thing I wanted to point out, Ras isn't really that kind of protagonist you mentioned xD
