The game becomes boring really fast, but then you can’t get away from it because you grinded so hard in the very short first Act.
But, by far, the most horrible boring thing is how much you just don’t stand a chance unless you’re a big buyer.
See the game needs a lot of strategy to beat bosses with just the team you can capture on the offline story, but you get 1 SSR character and it becomes incredibly easy because their strength is so vastly different.
So, the game could be more fun if they’d simply charge a higher price for the app to get money and make it a free to play app so people could feel competitive without spending $40 a month just to be able to battle people who have no skill, didn’t finish the online story with skill or do anything at all with skill, just threw money and summoned until they had so many SSR that no amount of skill could kill them or compete against them.
Love how people defend this too. Like if you’re not willing to spend, just leave, well at that point it’s just people throwing their wallets around. It’s not skill or strategy, it’s just collecting because you have money. Rich kids getting the upper hand again because there’s nothing at all that money can’t buy them.
I play another game where you can buy and get things early without work, but it doesn’t keep you ahead long if a free to play player works hard and eventually catches up.
This game basically is a game that just rewards you for having money, when you want to get right down to it.
The discussion you’re reading above was 4 years ago, when this game was very new and before the SSRs had been massively power crept to the unbeatable state they are now. The game was radically different and characters couldn’t get anywhere near as high stats as they can get now (e.g. max level was lower).
I completely agree that one SSR summon will completely warp your experience and all sense of game balance is lost in most stages of the game due to the power creep that’s happened over time.
As for the game being all about spending… that’s partially true. At the top level it’s all about having a huge collection of fully awakened SSRs. They release new characters very frequently so it’s impossible to keep on top of them unless you spend a huge amount. Instead, it’s possible to do it for free by making sure you stay over 30k soulstones to keep getting 6-30k soulstones every few weeks from the lucky fountain. Other places in the game also give a reasonable number of soulstones, meaning overall you can fully awaken a character every once in a while. So basically as a free player you can still compete but you have to carefully select what you’re going for and it’ll take ages to actually get to a similar point that established players are at (although that’s helped by power creep because these older players are needing to replace most of their team every year with the new, better stuff).
