Mabinogi Duel was a fun card game I used to play. Too bad Nexon, uh, shut it down.

So their stuff is not inherently bad, I guess.

Oh no, I'm not saying that the content of their games is bad, it's more how they manage them, nickle-and-diming with app purchases etc.

Or even outside the mobile space, e.g. shutting down Dungeon Fighter Online and the developers (Neople) going "gently caress it, we'll just run it ourselves".

So it depends on how much influence they'll have on the SinoAlice game proper.

Can you still do the skill spam soulstone farming in BB, or is that no longer available? I've been trying to find one of the soulstone making skill modifiers in Turbulence but I'm not running into it.

It is, they are just pretty rare. I had to run through like 6 times before I finally got one and got set up.

Man, zone three in Archero is a piece of poo poo. Out of maybe five attempts so far I've only made it past the first room once. It's going to take forever to get through at this rate, since I'm only getting the initial spin coins.

World 2 whoops my rear end :(

Every world has whooped my rear end, and then I get some magical game where I only get dps upgrades. I finally cleared world 3 with like 2 damage 2 crit 2 aspd, a multishot, ricochet, and bouncy wall with side and diagonals arrows. Flooded the screen with projectiles.

Seems like all the fun upgrades like elements and orbs are strictly inferior to good ol' dps.

Slow projectiles is also a superstar upgrade. Doesn't have any visual effects but you do notice how much easier it is to dodge double spitting plant boss.

Is there anything that increases your movement speed in Archero? The character feels a bit sluggish for the amount of projectiles it needs to dodge.

Dragon Balls? Are they tasty?
My biggest problem right now is that filling the screen with spinning boomerangs has made it nearly impossible to see the stuff i'm supposed to be trying to get out of the way of. I made it to some gigantic Contra-esque dragon boss in World 3 that I didn't have enough health to figure out the patterns of before the run ended.

the world 3 boss is the dragon, he has three main attacks from memory. one of them spawns rows of lightning htat move down the screen that you hvae to dodge, another shoots a bunch of slow bouncing lightning projectiles and the third he bites forwards and spawns the same projectiles. i had the most near successes (and eventually got him) from standing sort of halfway along the bottom left wall of the arena

That actually seems like a fair tradeoff. You can reroll bosses but at the cost of the bonus upgrades.

I'm not sure if I'm in zone 4 or 5 but the difficulty definitely took a pretty noticeable spike after that dungeon with enemy waves.

It seems to be some kind of MMO with building and crafting elements in it? I made a warmage on on DreamFall called Gimbal.

The anime voice acting is extremely grating, however.

Who plays games with sounds on anyway?

Like others have said, this is easily one of the most polished and well fleshed-out MMOs I've seen on the phone. And it doesn't (so far) look like the gameplay is 95% idling on auto-attack like some others (*cough* L2R). Give it a go if you're on the fence.

I was just commenting to my friend how much this looks/feels like CoL but I guess that's just pretty standard for most of these games and CoL was the last/only other one I've played. How did they gently caress up that game? I actually kinda liked the auto-questing stuff that was in there.

I played it for quite a while. Eventually they hit the P2W REALLY hard when subscriber numbers started to fall. Meanwhile, they kept introducing new game modes that continually introduced game breaking bugs that never got fixed. Introduced new massively overpowered classes while refusing to rebalance old ones to keep up. Fired their community team so the was zero support on their spam infested forums. You know, the usual.

I started Dawn of Isles on Dreamfall. Look me up: SuperRad

It's pretty fun so far and doesn't seem super P2W plus the combat controls are smooth. I love their AoE spell controls and the way certain spell interact with other (ex Fire + Poison = Explosion!). I enjoy the relaxed gathering and stuff it has as well. Apparently auto unlocks at 20 but that should help out while I'm at work dicking around. I don't think you can successfully auto dungeons due to the way combat works but gathering might be night to have auto for.

Once you enter the city you can create a tribe, but it costs 1,000,000 coins

EDIT: I can actually create a tribe now unless someone else is already on top of it. Just need a name.

I have to wonder... given that gaming is a massive industry and has been for decades, who the hell makes these decisions thinking 'this is exactly how we make more money', despite countless examples of this poo poo not working at all? Meanwhile, games like LoL, Fortnite, and the other F2P-pay-only-for-cosmetic-poo poo games are taking the gently caress off (and honestly, good on them!) and making so much money it's obscene.

How can even the money-centric suits at the top of the chain who don't give a poo poo about actual gaming not know how this works now? :psyduck: People, the formula is there, no one really seems to mind, and it's loving working... and you do this bullshit that almost always fails. I just don't get it.
