They seriously just re-released the garbage rhythm game with absolutely no improvements. Literally all they really had to do was make the higher difficulties worth playing. But dw, I'll just play casual normal mode because why should the developers expect me to put in more effort than they do?
Also, why the living fuck has tempest not been fixed? Every time tempest comes around I get more and more fed up with this garbage sham of a game. I literally haven't actually played through a run the past 8 TT's because the only improvements they can offer to dull the tedium of miserable repetition is to make it so I don't have to play it and can just auto battle through it sub 300~ times instead? Nice game design there, guys. If they want to offer me a way to not play this garbage than I'm all too happy to oblige.
I ask you, who in the survey DIDN'T say that Tempest was garbage bs that was tedious and went on far too long (2 weeks? Really?) Because if you said everything was a-ok then you're part of the problem with this game. If you just blithely accept the garbage they force-feed down your throat and happily grind your way to top 1000 just for the menial reward of some numbers then you are absolutely and unequivocally the problem with this game.
Oh, I thought they at least acknowledged that Tempest is atrocious when we got a few mini Tempests instead. Not quite good, but much less likely to make me want to cut my hands off just so I have an excuse to not play anymore.
But here we are again. With another fucking dull grind house mode with absolutely no entertainment value that I play just so I can get the stupid shitty rewards for this stupid shitty game.
I would rail on IV's as a mechanic next but anyone who isn't on that train is legitimately cancerous. But it won't matter soon. I'm legitimately about to drop out of this game. I thought it was improving early on, and I've waited for the simplest issues to be fixed (even shit so simplistic as the music not resetting after enemy phase so I can hear the song all the way through while I'm playing, God forbid), and there's no show of this game getting any better. With every update they've either added in more useless shit or threw the game's balance into further disarray because they can't think of any better way to advance it aside from inflating numbers and power creeping.
So it's probably a fond* farewell after this. Not that I gave a fuck about any of you or vice versa. But if my parting words at least stick with someone and let them see the atrocity that is this game for what it is then I can not be given a fuck about happily.
*Not fond in the slightest
Part of this game is working hard to get all the Quests and Rewards completed, as this is the only mobile game I play I don't find it too hard.
I do agree the Enemy Phase music is annoying, but I've loved Tap Battle, it's a fun, chill gamemode that's easy to get rewards for and then ignore or do for fun.
If that's not the way you play, then video games in general just aren't for you. Good luck finding a game that gives you currency like candy, pal.
While I don't necessarily disagree with any of the points you made or concerns you raised, you're obviously quite burnt out. Time to take a break or just let the game go.
As much as I'd like to say this is friendly advice, this post was a waste of my time as well as yours.
They're a company. They care about what you think when they can make money off it. That's how business works.
Some people enjoy TT. I do my 3x bonus runs and either grind with a good team on 30 or 35 difficulties, or I manually play with a team that I'm grinding levels or SP on. I know I like the rewards, and this one is also challenging, which is a bonus. I do prefer the mini TT gameplay-wise though.
Illusory Dungeon's harder modes are for people who enjoy the mode and want the extra challenge. If they did have extra rewards, you'd be complaining because it was too hard and unfair to lock rewards between something of that difficulty. I, personally, love Tap Battle, and hope it comes back more frequently.
IS has put effort into rebalancing older units. Ever heard of Weapon Refinery? And IVs are fine and workable if you're motivated enough to use a units.
Bye. Don't let the door hit you on your way out.
Alas, you won't be missed. The toxicity of the forums just went down.
Boo hoo. Is it really that surprising? You actually have to work to get rewards - who would have thought? If you don't like it then just don't do it. These rewards aren't mandatory but they still are essentially free rewards (don't require money to get). Grinding is part of just about any game (you can't get whatever you want immediately). So good bye random person (you won't be missed or remembered so...). I hope you can one day find a game that you enjoy.
Cya then! I'll enjoy the hot spring/ maybe hot tub this time round at stage 100 in your place!
If the way this game is progressing is not your cup of tea you might want to drink coffee instead.
Games and life in general is a grind. You can only choose what you want to grind at and how much effort you are going to put into that grinding.
While playing this game i too get frustrated at times however with anguish comes a sense of achievement when you succeed. Other than that I'm glad I'm part of the gamepress community as it is much more fun with more people along for the journey, pushing on solo is just lonely. With that said, Thank you team gamepress!
Yes Tempest Trials can be tedious. But thankfully we have the two 3X per day. We didn't used to have that. So it really doesn't take 300X to get through it. That is a HUGE exaggeration!
I can run a decent team all the way through (even without bonus units) and score 500-550. So dividing 100K by that means 180X. That is not even counting using bonus units or the 3X.
Also the tempest trials are great for grinding units. Far more effective than the training tower. Sometimes I feel like grinding, sometimes I don't. But honestly its not that hard to complete all of Tempest Trials.
