Bad game with the worst gacha I have ever seen. Save some time and money and play anything else.
edit. The horrible Christmas event and World Arena made me delete my account. I am not comming back to this horible game ever and I am leaving my 1 Star review here and on Google Play Store. New players stay away from this dumpster fire of a game.
edit2. I was wrong. Genshin Impact is way worst,makes this game look a lot better by comparison.
too cash heavy bait.. even if you whale you wont get what you want w awful gacha rates.. and to build 1 hero require alot of grinding and materials.. before you finish 1 hero you will find better hero and regret later for all golds, catalysts, runes you wasted
Not very friendly game unless you are masochist
Been playing here and there since launch, game has some good points but the bad stuff is just to much that it comes creeping out every time I try to come back to this game.
First, is the gacha, this game has the worst gacha system ever! They fixed some of the problems with it at the start, but the rates are still so low that you will be very lucky if you ever get anything good from it.
ML and Limited units are everyting in this game, dont trust anyone saying that you can get by with the crappy 3* to 4*, sure, some of them are useful but only when paired with the OP units.
ML and Mystic gacha is basically pay to win and the worst thing is that even if you whale you might not get what you want unless you spend thousands of dollars.
Which brings another problem, the game devs are soooo greeedy, which makes every package in the store a joke.
Then there's the RNG, everyting in this game is made to screw you over with RNG mechanics, might not feel bad at first but once you played enough you will start to burn out of how bad the range is on everyting.
Once you realize that the only thing you do in this game is leaving your cellphone all day auto farming it will hit you, theres no meaningful content in this game. Things will turn into a chore once you start reaching endgame.
In my honest opinion, try the game if you like anime and stuff, but my advice is not to get too attached to the game since it will chew you up alive, spit you and chew you up again untill you cant go anymore, and for the love of all that is holy, dont spend money in this game!! I honestly dont know why would anyone would spend money in the game packages when they offer a bunch of crap for all the money you are spending.
If you can, stay away from this game.
Phenomenal graphics, music, and character design. A lot of people complain about the grind, and yes, endgame grind can be hell. But compared to other gacha games I've played, you're not solely grinding for the summoning currency. You grind for gear, runes, and such to actually build a unit. Story is nice, I personally haven't read to much into main story. Side stories provide a nice insight on units. The Developers are being a bit more responsive than the past. By far my favourite gacha style game.
EDIT 1: smilegate is killing the game. Getting good gear is near impossible, content feels more like a chore and is not rewarding at all, new content is lackluster, auto battling is trash. I like this game, I really do, but smilegate is slowly killing it.
EDIT 2: Smilegate has made auto battling good now, however the rest of my complaints are still valid. I recently quit because of the garbage gear I was getting, despite the improvements to the equipment conversion. RNG rolls for gear are just frustrating, and it's not fun when you grind the same stage over a thousand times.
I've played Epic Seven on and off for just shy of 1000 hours. Basically, at the end game content where it's all about this grind. To explain my experience is a debate that would take an actual sitdown.
Ive spent enough money to equal paying slightly more than a dollar an hour. I make plenty of money, Im casual as hell and here's what I think.
Everything positive and negative people about this one holds merit. Is smilegate a money grubbing bunch of bastards? Basically.
Is this game still awesome? Pretty much.
Is it pay to win? No, because rng will do it's damndest to give you shit gear. You can throw all your money at it, and E7 RNGesus may not bless you.
It's balanced, or some toons are too OP/game breaking. It's all true and it's also not.
If you like fantasy anime, you will probably enjoy this game right up until you teeter too far on one side of the smilegate sucks fence or the other.
Im slowing down on how much I play, but it's only a matter of time until they add something else awesome to do.
It's my favorite guilty pleasure.
This game has one of the most forgiving Gacha system I've known to date. If you don't get a certain character after 120 tries in a specific character rate-up, in the next try (121th) the character is guaranteed.
I'm a F2P btw and currency can be hoarded with enough patience and diligence.
Grinding is on par with Disgaea series when it comes to mid-game and end-game equipment and it takes time to get there but not a bad game if you decide to focus on having fun.
the music is amazing, the stages' environment / backgrounds reminds me to Odin Sphere (which is beautiful and breathtaking), story becomes deeper bit by bit (not to mention side stories), great fanservice for both genders as well if you're into that.
Graphic is good, the animation and background is superb
been playing GBF, FGO, and now im stuck in this game
Since they've added the jap voice over and got some fav seiyuu to note, pretty neat
BGM is not that much tho, gbf was great hahaha
Gameplay is kind of bland unless you got godlike rng gear rolls and super status
Not really into the pvp one, really rigged with that wtf luck on defending AI the RTA is only for heavy grinder, wont stand a chance for casual player always back to square one, God Gear Rolls
Some stage is pretty niche, which require certain hero needed to easy clear
You can clear with hero X, with hero Y, but still back to the rule 1, God Gear Rolls so its not really helpful
not really friendly with beginner or low luck player
Gacha rate is good imo, 121 pull, better than 300 pull to guarantee 1 hero
You got daily 1 summon, which is really helpful (got lots of good heroes here, during first 3 months of playing i got no *5, but now i have like 65% of all heroes) f2p here
which is obtainable within 3 month playing since you get the gacha material around 1000 weekly for f2p
could be faster if you get pulling ticket from shop, event, and drops from adventure
Some event give very useful *5, not that many tho
Pet allows auto battle and gaining odds in the game, also got daily pet summon as well, starts from lv 45 if im not mistaken
There is mystic summon (from guild war) and element summon (from guild as well, got 2 *5 here, nice)
element started from lv 50 to appear on the summon menu
if the guild is not active, better leave it and search for active one for free summon
some story was good, some was not
just like gbf imo, fgo is better at the story imo
just did it daily since i played as usual, and some days with grind fest (during double drops event or some crucial event with nice prize)
i had better time than in gbf
not that same with fgo
but this game is worth a try, the dev is fixing stuff at really slow pace which is kinda worrysome
if youre going to play this game, the grinding is like arknight (once you cleared it easily, it will go auto), the gear collecting is like magna grind in gbf (looking for gear drops), the upgrade stuff is like fgo (the material and stuff)
if youre not familiar with those games, this game is kinda tiresome
good luck and stop playing the one that stop sparing joy
game is for refreshment, not the stressor.
have a nice day
Just past ch. 1. Art and animation are amazing. Gameplay is somewhat satisfying, but repetitive. Free 10x roll, 30 times once you complete the 1st chapter. Characters and equipments are in the same roll and 1.25% to get characters. 300 dollars doesn't get you a 5*, I've made the mistake for you :) other than the gacha, game is fantastic and emersive with dozens of ways to earn free crystals.
Idk fam, I'm f2p, I have literally 1 ml5* to my name. No avild, no ssb, no Basar, no mchloe, no extinction characters or revive at all and honestly?
I love this game. Its fun! You get Montmorancy for free through connections and her specialty change still makes her one of the best healers in the game. Lena is a nat 3* and is a brilliant farmer. Ains is a nat 3* and is basically mini ken. Kluri is a nat3* and is brilliant. Judith is a cleave enabling icon and oh look she's nat 3*.
You can reroll until you get a 5* you want (from the starting pool ofc) and guess who I chose! Baal and Sezan! I chose a hero that people never use! And I built them, and I still use them today! And they're great.
My guild is in x5 rewards in guild war, and I'm one of the people with the highest win records, my defense team has Khawana AND the aforementioned Baal and Sezan in it, people in x5 rewards still lose to it. You don't need to bow down to any kind of meta and you don't need to yeet your wallet at the game.
It's a grindy game, you have to put work in. You have to get gear, and hell yeah the gear rng is gonna feel like it's kicking you into next week sometimes, but that's part of the game. You're playing a gacha game for Pete's sake of course it's gonna be heavily rng.
The gacha has pity banners, there are no banners exclusively for paid currency.
The dev team respond pretty quickly to issues now too, despite the community being overly hostile towards them.
This game isn't gonna be for everyone, that's fine, but the point is that you've gotta find that out for yourseld, but don't just skip out on giving it a chance because you read a 1* review from some dude who's upset he didn't get 7 different ml5* in the space of 2 months.
alright, as a player who has played nearly 4 years... i shall share my point of view about this game.
As we can see in the game preview... it has very nice..no.. its SUPERB animation with no chibi characters. If we compare to other gacha games.. most of the characters are chibis. So I choose Epic 7 bcs of this.
For gacha.. well i think it's okay.. with a normal covenant 5* heroes rate of 1% is actually good when compared to other games like fgo, and genshin. And plus, you can actually F2P pity it in all banners. And of course with right technique of spending. (just search in the yt about it).
For characters.. in terms of design wise.. YES IT IS AWESOME! Though there is some issue before like the censoring issue, the developer team manage to handle it. Plus the character is not chibi and it seems pretty cool. To note that, not all characters is a must have especially ML5s. Well, I have been playing for a long time with previous arena has many toxic ML5 such as Apocalypse Ravi, Conqueror Lilias, Belian and bla bla.. there are not important but if you have them it's a bonus. However, I have proven it by hitting Champ in last season with good draft in RTA and I don't have those good ML5s. Just play with convenant heroes and with good gearing.. then everything can be handled. Just search in YouTube for good convenant heroes.
Gear - well it's all about RNG and gold spending management. Even whale have troubles with gearing. It's all about dedication and passion.
Arena - for normal arena... well you can hit legend easily with good gewrs and team comps and a bit of RNG on your side. But you it is not easy to maintain the legend position.
RTA/ World Arena - it is toxic and you must be prepared for it. Dont dive in without proper gear and characters comps. Dont be suprised with opponents insane gear and dont blame the game for it's unfainess (unless speed RNG and other RNGs). Sometimes RNG is good and sometimes it is not. Play the game if you want to know. To note that, most opponents will use ML5s to oppress you, so try close the gap by having better gear and comps and right preban and ban
Btw. you can easily becomes rich in this game. Try search Astranox on YouTube to know about the tech.
Overall.. just try it first for a few months.. burnout from farming is normal..but if you feel the game is not right for you then try to find other game. Not everyone has same opinion on this game, some can be positive or negative.
