Its probably gonna get more attention now considering ZZZ has the same gameplay. As you can see PGR has been getting alot more attention in comparison videos.
And those are some of the reasons why PGR is my favorite gacha game. I started playing since Luna Laurel's release. It's the third gacha I've ever played. My first impression is that it's DMC/Nier x Candy Crush hybrid with Souls-like bosses. I don't know if PGR is your first gacha but if it is, you're lucky. Kuro is less-aggressive on the gacha monetization. It's rare to see a gacha game of this kind to have a 100% rate for every new characters. I'm F2P and I literally have all the units and some of their 6 star weapons save for some (don't have some of the original S ranks like Karenina Ember, Nanami Pulse, and Crimson Abyss). I also have most of the cubs. Also, I'm glad you mentioned how PGR leveraged the primary medium it's developed for, and that's mobile touchscreens and innovated from that and did something frankly innovative in the hack-and-slash ARPG overall. While literally most mobile gacha games are emulating AAA PC/console games and ends up producing a mediocre version of it or at least an imitation of it. PGR embraced mobile and produced a product that recognizes what it is. The result is the orb signal system intertwined not just to its gameplay but also lore. And speaking of the lore, the story and lore is also great. Some chapters could be a movie in its own. The current one with Noctis is also good. With that being said, welcome to PGR! this community is small and some are aholes but most are nice.
I played Mega Man X Dive since i love the Mega Man Series, then stumbled on PGR on MMX-Dive global chat after someone mentioned they are making their move to PGR. By comparison MMXD would bleed you dry of resources with little reward. Been playing PGR nearly every day since December and never looked back. Kuro treats their fans and their IP well.
i think kuros knows the gameplay problem (somewhat) bcs they released a new gamemode that ranks u by how stylish the gameplay is but its still in beta testing and yeah that mode has special taunt feature for two characters for now theyll probably add more bosses and characters in that gamemode
Yep, I've heard of this game mode and seen a little gameplay of it and it's reassuring that there's really cool gameplay content coming in the (far) future too! I didn't know there's a taunt feature in that mode, that's badass LOL
@@ToastythunderGD first time it was in S rank hanying patch with one boss and 2 characters, however in the 4.5 livestream for the new patch it revealed we are getting next season, of the mode with more bosses and characters, also the stylish ranking was actually introduced way back in an event called operation un, sadly its last season was in A rank Hanying patch
@@ToastythunderGDadditionally , I believe they are now promoting team composition through synergy instead of just elements . With the introduction of new affix effects , for example ‘Electric Flux’ for Karelia Scire and Lucia Pyroath , ‘True Slash’ for Balter and S Hanying . Future characters may have these new affix effects and thus promote team comps of synergy using this system instead of just , I see fire so I put fire together unga bunga
I found out pretty close to when I started about the anniversary event, so I've been saving all the currency I can for the event and gonna see how decked out of a stigmata I can get when it launches as a mostly f2p player lol
I heard "To The Limit" in the BG. You are king (kind of literally. most CC's just use the big 3 OST, Narwhal, Hikari and Lamia to showcase the music and i'm so tired of it). As for the jumping mechanic, they sort of (shoddily) had implemented it in a one-off side mode sometime ago, which was monster hunter just straight up, so it's nice to see that come back proper (also technically lamia 'does swim' in ult1 mode so lol)
great video, finally i see some new player perspective. definetly helps, cause so many pgr players confuse me and overwhelme with with all the stuff the game has^^
Yeah the 4.5 anniv that featured Lucia with her new frame having aerial combat (her hit box is still on the ground) You still have to dodge but even her dodge got implemented from Karenina:Scire's kit so her entire animation skills are aerial but vulnerable. That shows they're probably planning on having future chars have aerial combat, hopefully the previous ones will have too
that's kinda disappointing she's vulnerable in the air, buuut I'm still hopeful because aerial combat is fun. And yeah, even if it's leaps adding aerial combat back on old units would be sick.
@@ToastythunderGDTbh, if her hitbox is also on the air she will break the game 💀, like how my AlphaCW carry all my current event and pretty much fill the incomplete Warzone team.
3:30 As a PC player (keyboard and mouse) you kinda had to change the ui config for the orb ping from L > R to R > L and move the location of the ping to the left side. that way it at least align with the number on the keyboard and not so confusing as default one.
The keyboard function For me on pc are: For ping(orbs) its 1-8 Movement is WASD Ult is Q Character 1&2 on mouse side buttons(on the left side 2 extra side buttons) Atk on left click Dodge on rught click Cub on the first button along side the number above QWERTY buttons (Cant remember if there's anything else)
hitting 1 - 8 on the keyboard during gameplay without an mmo mouse seems really awkward to me, but if it works for you and others that's great! Having your extra characters on your extra mouse buttons is pretty slick.
@@ToastythunderGD If you don't want to spam L-click all the time you can set auto attack on the F button on keyboard settings. I only use L-click for the Hold attack or timing attack mechanic.
For me I prefer using the mouse cursor (left Click) when pinging orbs Q & E for camera rotation R for ult tab & caps for 2 qtes Mouse side button just for manual enemy locking (optional) Space bar for dodge C for cub right click for basic atk (I know this can also ping orb but im just using it to avoid using left click too much) WASD movement I know some people call my setup weird but this is what's most comfortable for me when using pc
My setup for PC is reminiscent of how I played mmorpgs like aion and FFXIV. WASD for movement. For orbs I have Q,E,R,F,1,2,3,4 Dodge is space bar ULT on SHIFT Cub is Z QTE is my mouse buttons My basic attack is right click. TAB for switching enemy I use the camera mode that has the cursor on screen so enemies (especially bosses) are easily locked on like mobile. If you have the free camera mode on you have to manually move the camera to follow enemies and that's very inefficient when fighting bosses. Overall my setup allows me to have everything within short reach of my fingers. I also changed the orientation the orbs are ordered in (instead of right to left, it's left to right) and put it where my ability bar would be in an MMO.
@@imcat1236 even if I fumble ping order, I can still clear high difficulty stages just by holding dodge, spamming cw core and ult. Run out of orbs? Just spam swordwave. It's just that braindead.
@@imcat1236 there's no top list for clearing high difficulty modes, hell even babel ranking is useless since most players can easily max risk with gen 2. Competitive modes are more on who whales the most than skill just like any other gacha games even top lists' build are sss+ gen 2
4:00 I play it in pc with a consol controle and is pretty good too, however only in mobile you can properly manage the orbs, because the controle doesn't have enough buttons.
3:36 My PC setting is IIRC before movement: WASD orb pings: 1, 2, 3, 4, Z, X, C, V basic atk: J dodge: K signature: L QTE: Q + E CUB: R Now movement: WASD orb pings: click manually by mouse basic atk: Z dodge: right click signature: X QTE: Q + E CUB: R
Yeah I could originally see a full keyboard set up working, but the camera is, uh, interesting at times in this game and I want to be able to adjust the camera freely. I could try clicking manually though, I'd just be scared someone dashes behind me as I'm trying to click orbs
I mapped mine a la Warframe. Movement: WASD Attack: E Ult: Q CUB: R QTE and Character Switch: 1, 2 Shift: Dodge Mouse 3: Camera lock, switch, and unlock. Then I manually click the orbs with the mouse. But yeah, I can't use the default keyboard controls, it's cumbersome for me. I've tried control and it is surprisingly good to use. But the king is the mouse pointer mode or frankly, mobile touch screens. 😂
Goated vid. Nice perspective. For every character I learn to play is to make the character's Core Passive the centre of your gameplay and ping skill orbs in accordance to activate Core Passive ability and then simply ping remaining skill orb to do extra damage or continue with team rotation and some guides from @Spider2B . Skill orb mechanic truly one of the mechanic/gameplay truly set apart PGR from the rest of other similar game like Honkai Impact 3rd, Genshin and even WuWa. It is almost completely different experience when I transition through these games. Currently, I think right now quite a good period to play PGR. 3rd Anniversary is near 🎉 (which mean 100% rate up banner until Alpha CW). Current patch and Alisa patch will be a great patch to save up Black Card and since you want to complete Fire team (me too😆) is gonna be quite a challenge. S-rank Lamia Dark Attacker, S-rank Watanabe Fire Tank, S-rank Qu Ice Attacker, S-rank Hanying Physical Tank. Since new character released starting from Lamia patch will be quite stronger and it would be quite regretrable to skip them. (This is may sound like quite an understatement but the current (Global) Ice team, the least performing team is now one of the best in CN server). This quite a lot so I will leave comment to the end here. Byeeee
thanks for the feedback! I'm excited to pull for stigmata finally in the upcoming event! I think my current strat is gonna be: roll for stigmata in alisa patch, and make my already main physical team, clearly my best team get brs for a stand-in fire attacker (sophia is literally the only fire unit i own lmao) get empyria on the lamia patch s selector, but pass on lamia roll for watanabe roll for qu then probably save until oathbreaker, my dark team will just have to suffer, rip in pieces
My setup for PC is reminiscent of how I played mmorpgs like aion and FFXIV. WASD for movement. For orbs I have Q,E,R,F,1,2,3,4 Dodge is space bar ULT on SHIFT Cub is Z QTE is my mouse buttons My basic attack is right click. TAB for switching enemy I use the camera mode that has the cursor on screen so enemies (especially bosses) are easily locked on like mobile. If you have the free camera mode on you have to manually move the camera to follow enemies and that's very inefficient when fighting bosses.

I also changed the orientation the orbs are ordered in (instead of right to left, it's left to right) and put it where my ability bar would be in an MMO.
I played from day one, and I think that the new characters have too much i frames, that makes their gameplay loop kind of braindead since you don't even have to dodge anymore, crimson weave is the perfect example: hold dodge (autoparry), press ultimate (timestop), hold attack (i frames), hold dodge, hold attack, ultimate, repeat. I hope they can go back to the old days where you could die anytime
and people keep defending this, even Rexlent, which is so absurd to me the game lost what made it special because of this design philosophy, so much stupidly long boring, repetitive fixed combos with one invulnerable animation after another
@@kskr8610 I feel the same. How tf is rex and everyone else acting as nothing happened? At least I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one that noticed it
@@sumas7 me and my friend actually said something like this to Rex on twitter once, stating that Gen 2 characters aren't fun at all and the bosses have become sloppily designed and HOARDS of Rex's followers along with the guy himself made fun of us, even to the extent of calling me an alt account of the other guy just because I agreed with him. I have lost most respect for the guy and the PGR fandom ever since. Most of the fandom really just want the game to be flashy, nothing more. Current PGR feels like playing HI3, full of animations, you spend like half the fights watching animations. The game hasn't become completely braindead easy, Babel is still "hard", but it's just not fun to play.
@@kskr8610 well, that's fucked, can you link me to the post (if it doesn't get removed by yt)? Also, hot take, babel is also braindead easy for the same reason that we discussed earlier, it just takes more than 1 rotation to clear
Created in 2019 I wish it had more popularity Because My friend say IF IT AINT POPULAR IT AINT GOOD even if its a joke it has little bit of truth it saddens me that such good game is overlooked so much ( i just want to talk with friends about this game lol )
Regarding orbs on PC, I highly encourage players to assign orbs number 5, 6, 7 and 8 to Alt + 1, Alt + 2, Alt + 3 and Alt + 4 respectively. This makes pinging them much more convenient and intuitive. The default keyboard and camera control scheme sucks imo, so remember to press Y to remove the mouse cursor, which allows you to control the camera with your mouse. In addition to that, try experimenting with the orb placement and size. I like to place them in the middle of the screen, about 30% from the bottom margin of the screen, with the left to right placement. It will be much easier to see and controls orbs if they are customized to your liking, since the default right to left placement might not feel very intuitive for a keyboard player
pc is easy to get used to, you just have to really learn where your numbers on the top row of the keyboard. i see some people play by clicking orbs with their mouse but i don't understand how they do it
how can someone play PGR in mobile without a stroke (for me it´s extremely difficult) on PC with keyboard and mouse I use: 1-4 for first 4 orbs and Space+1-4 for the other 4 orbs (really comfy for me)
@@ToastythunderGD it is unless you already use that keybind for another thing for example: If you have Rapid Fire binded to Space then you won´t be able to do any double bind with Space. And If you already have Space double binded then you won´t be able to single bind any action to Space. Only happens in PC port but the camera in a emulator is wonky
@@ToastythunderGD the timing😂😂 some enemies do feint, so I actually baited to attack sooner than the actual timing... It way easier to dodge... Man, skill issue really hard
I have! I installed it and played the tutorial mission, but haven't picked it back up yet. Idk if I can stomach another gacha lol, but I am kinda curious what Kuro is cooking with a second game
@@vozzy06 the problem is Wuthering waves is trying to be something other than it self by copying another game. PGR hasn't does shit since it launched and veterans still love it after 4 years because Its unique and its different from every other gacha game whether its the story or combat of PGR
@@vozzy06 In the process of development of Wuthering waves it lost its own identity by pretending to be something else other than it unique self and that's makes the game dead for even. It has only pretty cutscenes and empty husk of a world.
@@Ssilhouette73 PGR hasn't done shit since it launched? I disagree. PGR innovated alot. From Vera Garnet's Ult straight to Character Passive (SS Rank), Karenina's aerial spinning attack, Haicma's mechanic, Uns dodge attacks and finishers, PGR keeps on improving their games. And I got the same faith for Wuthering Waves, because Kuro Games' is behind it. And we've seen some good stuff, especially Calcharo's enhanced intro, Jinhsi and Changli's aerial combo, among other things.
@@doedoel035 Read my comment again u dimwit. What I meant is that it is doing its own thing rather than copying others, Seriously I know about all the stuff PGR has no need to remind of that, I am a PGR veteran myself.
I heavily dislike the orb system. a) The fact that its made for touchscreens is a huge downside for me. I hate touchscreen controls, and using the orb system with a controller is much worse. b) It introduces RNG into combat where in my opinion there shouldn't be any c) It distracts from the actual combat itself. Instead of watching the cool fight scenes, you're staring at the orbs trying to figure out what to hit. I think you should be able to control your character without looking at controls, and orb system makes it impossible.
You bring up some good points and I don't entirely disagree! a) This one feels mostly personal preference and even for myself pgr is the first game I've even liked touch controls. b) I agree, for action games like this minimal rng is generally preferred, but I think it would bother me more if I felt like I ever actually ever fully lost BECAUSE of the rng in this game. I can't remember a time where like "Oh man, if I had I blue orb here I would have won!" There's been times where my combo didn't do as much damage as possible, but didn't really cause me to lose. And there are plenty of games where rng is in it's combat outside of action games so this hasn't bothered me that much personally. c) You should be able to control your character without looking at controls, I agree! And the orb system alone definitely spits in the face of that, but I think the Matrix mode helps alleviate this issue in multiple ways. First and most apparent, the time slow gives you a window where you can look at the orbs with nothing else to worry about and solve the orb puzzle and once you've solved it you can press your orbs in peace and watch the sparks fly! Second, the first ping in matrix mode counting as a 3 ping helps make solving the puzzle easier AND helps alleviate any criminally bad rng. To each their own though! I personally feel they have a really unique system and implemented it well, even if it's not entirely perfect! Is there an action rpg you've been playing and enjoying more lately?

and people keep defending this, even Rexlent, which is so absurd to me the game lost what made it special because of this design philosophy, so much stupidly long boring, repetitive fixed combos with one invulnerable animation after another
@@kskr8610 I feel the same. How tf is rex and everyone else acting as nothing happened? At least I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one that noticed it
@@sumas7 me and my friend actually said something like this to Rex on twitter once, stating that Gen 2 characters aren't fun at all and the bosses have become sloppily designed and HOARDS of Rex's followers along with the guy himself made fun of us, even to the extent of calling me an alt account of the other guy just because I agreed with him. I have lost most respect for the guy and the PGR fandom ever since.
Most of the fandom really just want the game to be flashy, nothing more. Current PGR feels like playing HI3, full of animations, you spend like half the fights watching animations. The game hasn't become completely braindead easy, Babel is still "hard", but it's just not fun to play.
@@kskr8610 well, that's fucked, can you link me to the post (if it doesn't get removed by yt)? Also, hot take, babel is also braindead easy for the same reason that we discussed earlier, it just takes more than 1 rotation to clear
Created in 2019 I wish it had more popularity Because My friend say IF IT AINT POPULAR IT AINT GOOD
even if its a joke it has little bit of truth it saddens me that such good game is overlooked so much ( i just want to talk with friends about this game lol )
PGR RECOGNITIONNNNNNNNNNN❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ my favourite game ever😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤

Regarding orbs on PC, I highly encourage players to assign orbs number 5, 6, 7 and 8 to Alt + 1, Alt + 2, Alt + 3 and Alt + 4 respectively. This makes pinging them much more convenient and intuitive. The default keyboard and camera control scheme sucks imo, so remember to press Y to remove the mouse cursor, which allows you to control the camera with your mouse.
In addition to that, try experimenting with the orb placement and size. I like to place them in the middle of the screen, about 30% from the bottom margin of the screen, with the left to right placement. It will be much easier to see and controls orbs if they are customized to your liking, since the default right to left placement might not feel very intuitive for a keyboard player
i wish you can ping orbs with scroll wheel
yeah some mentioned you can double bind and that DEFINITELY seems like the play! Thanks for the heads up!
PGR is probably the best gacha game that nobody knows
This Game is the Best Action RPG on Mobile, Aether Gazer, Honkai Impact 3, and another ARPG i think can't surpass this game
pc is easy to get used to, you just have to really learn where your numbers on the top row of the keyboard. i see some people play by clicking orbs with their mouse but i don't understand how they do it
how can someone play PGR in mobile without a stroke (for me it´s extremely difficult)
on PC with keyboard and mouse I use: 1-4 for first 4 orbs and Space+1-4 for the other 4 orbs (really comfy for me)
I didn't know you could do the double bind that's actually game changing!
@@ToastythunderGD it is unless you already use that keybind for another thing for example: If you have Rapid Fire binded to Space then you won´t be able to do any double bind with Space.
And If you already have Space double binded then you won´t be able to single bind any action to Space.
Only happens in PC port but the camera in a emulator is wonky
It's extremely simple on mobile (haven't truly used a keyboard or controller) as long as you don't just mindlessly spam button
Still my favorite gacha game for a reason, love to see new players enjoying this greatness of a game.
parries are expensive.. that's why most of us fail to perform (wdym skill issue)
You can parry with basic attacks can't you? So it wouldn't cost anything or am I missing something?
@@ToastythunderGD the timing😂😂 some enemies do feint, so I actually baited to attack sooner than the actual timing... It way easier to dodge... Man, skill issue really hard
@@ohman5004 oh LMAO yeah I'm terrible at it too, I've only been able to kind of do it against fenrir and only his really telegraphed moves
pgr rahhh!
Ah, my main game aside WuWa
Need Hikari soundtrack
And this video would be perfect
Trust me, I highly considered putting it in but I felt I needed a at least one slower paced song in the middle lol Thanks for the feedback though!
I appreciate BALTER as the thumbnail though, she's my favourite character.
1:40 made me cringe so hard...
n i even migrated from jp version to global, just because of haicma.. XD
her execute animation is really sick!
@@ToastythunderGD n her skillset is pretty friendly for a nuub like me. XD
have you seen wuthering waves? :)
I have! I installed it and played the tutorial mission, but haven't picked it back up yet. Idk if I can stomach another gacha lol, but I am kinda curious what Kuro is cooking with a second game
@@ToastythunderGD it is fun and uncomplicated (with the all the currencies and stuff)
me see PGR, me subs and like :D
Play wuwa if you want to jump
I'm considering, but it doesn't have the orb system. I just wanna have my cake and eat it too, you know?
Calling PGR a mobile game is wild
Sir.. your voice... The musics too loud 😭😭😭
I know /: I'm not good at sound mixing, but I appreciate the feedback and will continue to improve!
a shame Wuthering Waves can never surpass this gem even if it makes millions of dollars.
I mean the style of mechanic is different from that of Pgr, but for someone with old eye, its better than flashing light
@@vozzy06 the problem is Wuthering waves is trying to be something other than it self by copying another game. PGR hasn't does shit since it launched and veterans still love it after 4 years because Its unique and its different from every other gacha game whether its the story or combat of PGR
@@vozzy06 In the process of development of Wuthering waves it lost its own identity by pretending to be something else other than it unique self and that's makes the game dead for even. It has only pretty cutscenes and empty husk of a world.
@@Ssilhouette73 PGR hasn't done shit since it launched? I disagree.
PGR innovated alot. From Vera Garnet's Ult straight to Character Passive (SS Rank), Karenina's aerial spinning attack, Haicma's mechanic, Uns dodge attacks and finishers, PGR keeps on improving their games. And I got the same faith for Wuthering Waves, because Kuro Games' is behind it. And we've seen some good stuff, especially Calcharo's enhanced intro, Jinhsi and Changli's aerial combo, among other things.
@@doedoel035 Read my comment again u dimwit. What I meant is that it is doing its own thing rather than copying others, Seriously
I know about all the stuff PGR has no need to remind of that, I am a PGR veteran myself.
Dude speak up
yeah i wish he stopped whispering or atleast tweak the volume for the bgm
Thanks for the feedback, I'm still working on trying to get sound balancing right I'm not very good at it yet. Have a good one!
I heavily dislike the orb system.
a) The fact that its made for touchscreens is a huge downside for me. I hate touchscreen controls, and using the orb system with a controller is much worse.
b) It introduces RNG into combat where in my opinion there shouldn't be any
c) It distracts from the actual combat itself. Instead of watching the cool fight scenes, you're staring at the orbs trying to figure out what to hit.
I think you should be able to control your character without looking at controls, and orb system makes it impossible.
You bring up some good points and I don't entirely disagree!
a) This one feels mostly personal preference and even for myself pgr is the first game I've even liked touch controls.
b) I agree, for action games like this minimal rng is generally preferred, but I think it would bother me more if I felt like I ever actually ever fully lost BECAUSE of the rng in this game. I can't remember a time where like "Oh man, if I had I blue orb here I would have won!" There's been times where my combo didn't do as much damage as possible, but didn't really cause me to lose. And there are plenty of games where rng is in it's combat outside of action games so this hasn't bothered me that much personally.
c) You should be able to control your character without looking at controls, I agree! And the orb system alone definitely spits in the face of that, but I think the Matrix mode helps alleviate this issue in multiple ways. First and most apparent, the time slow gives you a window where you can look at the orbs with nothing else to worry about and solve the orb puzzle and once you've solved it you can press your orbs in peace and watch the sparks fly! Second, the first ping in matrix mode counting as a 3 ping helps make solving the puzzle easier AND helps alleviate any criminally bad rng.
To each their own though! I personally feel they have a really unique system and implemented it well, even if it's not entirely perfect! Is there an action rpg you've been playing and enjoying more lately?
