Same old games industry, same old drama. In the same vein as the later drama in these past few months (Subnautica 2 developer shitfest, Wuthering Waves 1st Anniversary, World of Tanks Raumfalte lootboxes, the entirety of Splitgate 2, etc.) Chinese and Global GFL2 is under reviewbombing as months of shit updates have culminated in complete dissatisfaction with the current state of the game. The dormitory furniture available in the game is completely paywalled and, taking a page from Nikke's skin microtransaction drama, paywalled the doll's costumes via Pink Tickets.
These Pink Tickets cannot be earned using regular currency and you as a F2P are fucked because you can only get 6 by your weeklies/dailies. The hard pity for these tickets is 100, meaning the grind for a singular skin is massive.
To top it all off the expenses to purchase these tickets is at $130, and that is not even the maximum microtransaction cost given that you are purchasing tickets with a chance to get a skin.
Even worse, the gameplay balance is getting fucked (taking a page right from Honkai Star Rail) with the new character Voymastina having powercrept Klukai and Suomi, where she can end the match's turn on Turn 0, meaning her kit can insta-win the battle (and some borrowing another player's Voymastina if they don't have her). The end-game still hasn't changed since release meaning both CN and Global are forced into the same boring standing-still boss since the game's release.
In the middle of all of this, they also noticed Mica's slow abandonment of Project: Neural Cloud, the other GFL-related gacha game (much like how Overkill abandoned their mobile spinoff of Payday [Payday: Crime Wars] and Wargaming abandoning Steel Hunters 3 months after release) post 3rd-Anniversary. CN and Global servers have been getting reruns and only reruns, with Global being worse off since they are still delayed by a year in terms of content compared to the CN server. The shop is still open and banners are rushed and resource farming is rendered impossible since some events are not rerun at all.
GG gunfags.
