Where do I start with this game, first of all this game is owned by tencent and using the shift up name to draw more people in, tencent is a greedy greedy company only cares about maximising profits and leaving f2p community in the dump, tencent dose not like people criticising the game, they have disabled the reviews on the Google play store, banned people on Discord, reddit and any other social media trying to criticise the game and I am a victim from their banning spree in fact I had a huge argument with their reddit mod who stated that I was inciting hatred which in fact I was stating a fact that they disabled reviews on Google play store and banned me for 7 days, but the overall game is ok but the optimization and bugs and terrible the story and voice acting is brilliant but overall the game is ok.
Putting this a 5 to anti-cancel zoomers crap.
Before anything, this game is 80% afk sweeping, 20% active. and when you are active, you don't even have time to check out on the waifus assets and actually have to deal with mechanics (ie. killing certain mobs in orders / using specific guns / saving ults at the right timing). Its not a game for you to world first, or fill in your hyperactive mode to try to min-max and finish everything in time. Nor is it pointing a gun at you to pay money and roll for waifus.
The events so far is up to par and suffices to give enough good units to progress through hard stage (and if you are stuck REMEMBER ITS AN AFK GAME YOU ZOOMER)
There is a wall at lv160, which requires you to have at least 4 same copies of the 5 characters, which you can manipulate by using the preferred list in the rolling system.
All in all, I give this game a 4/5.
Stop playing afk games like how you race to finish other new games, or complaining about other players whaling. and your experience playing this game is 2000% better.
60x Rolls + 10x Molds (TOWER/SSR/SR)
Keep grinding and keep saving but not receiving a GOOD ROLL FOR SSR (any)
4 or 2 percent is really hard to get.
Molds 50/61 percent for SSR is not real. It is the opposite.
Trust me.. I can't have the duplicate or the wishlist to improve my Characters.
Yeah the event is helpful to upgrade.
I got a new nemesis in the rankings. In 1-2 days, goodbye rank 1 in my 45-60k BP. Think of it that new player rise in 3 days from 30k to 57k BP. Loader or not, I don't know. All I can think of is leaving the top place since I cannot receive anymore Nikke in my grinds.
I GUESS F2P ARE NOT WELCOME TO COMPETE WHEN YOU REACH 40K+ BP.
F2P GOOD LUCK.
I better cut my hope of getting Pilgrim or Event Nikke since all my rolls/molds are waste of expectation. 400 recruitment, 37 Nikke (with SSR/SR/R).
Damn!..
At first I was skeptical to play the game because of the ads or how I seen that the game is more focused on horny people until the chainsaw man collaboration came out and I thought I should try it. The game is pretty grindy and it got all of the sudden pretty hard at some point but I do like the game mechanics or the combat system since I think its interesting but it will get boring in the future since there is not much too it. And the game gets hard if you dont have good characters other than that there is nothing much to it. I dont know what to say about the gacha system though since its been decent with me but the graphics and design of each character in the game seem high quality. I play in japanese but I listened to other audio languages and they seem pretty good too and the bg music and sound effects are pretty decent. Although I have nothing to say storyline wise since I have no interest. I think its a pretty good game.
day 1 F2P nikke player here. the graphics voice lines and story are all okay. but the gameplay is where the entire disaster strikes.
overall the gameplay is ok but most of the gameplay is locked behind SSR Characters.
when i say character i dont jst mean the power of ssr's oh no it goes deep. u see this game employs a tactic called "unless u get the same charcter 3 times on 5 different characters u wont progress past this stage ever" tactic.
what i mean is your characters are locked on level 160 on your entire account unless u get 3 copies of an SSR character u own. and to increase the power of your entire account u need to do this entire process 5 whole different times. and let me tell u unless u arent the god of luck himself u forget to ever level up your character past 160 for the next couple months or so.
edit: gotta say, my impression has been blown away.
the story, the gameplay loop especially the end game, the rewards by the dev team on various events, the music are all top quality.
my feelings for 160 wall have still not changed but i am now willing to overlook it for other aspects, hence my new rating for the game is waayy higher.
Is a great idle game that provides great fan service and great storyline for those who like those things.
Gameplay is great but as with most games just use the auto feature because all you really do is watch your characters shoots stuff whilst things jiggle 😬😬
Events give out good rewards through the shop in which you must complete missions to earn tokens and then exchange them for goods in the event store. Mainly just use them for summon tickets.
Biggest gripe for this game though is how expensive everything is in the shop, $31.00 AUD is absurd for mission pass, skins and event mission pass which only gives out summon tickets and some minor rewards.
Summoning is rate is I think not that good but it is luck base.
Overall just play casually and you won't be disappointed :D
good game ,good story , gacha rate is also high .
they give around 30 pulls perevent , and fp gacha can give you ssr (already got 4 ssr from fp) .
The bad things are how manufacturer mold not guarantee ssr eeven when theyre really scarce .
also Story and sidequest reward of ch 13++ is nerfed to a measly amount( 10 cystal + measly amount of credit ). Like cmon shiftup change manufacturer mold to 100% it wont cost you anything cause its so scarce .
Battlepass is more expensive compared to other game , but easy to clear and have decent reward battlepass skin have additional voiceline . (15 pullish + skin + mold both ssr and sr ) . so overall its okay
The skin price is a big no no . Supremely overpriced without additional effect whatsoever and no bonus .
the dev also quite responsive with fixing the bug , only few bug left here and there . but iitsreasonable cause considering game still new need to give it more time.
overall its a good game unlike what most people says here , and if you want to support the IP just buy batllepass and monthly . anything else not worth
This game is beautiful. Story is good. Nice part is over. You will feel tencent stranglehold around this game, especially if you know the original Devs games such as Destiny Child. Tencent has ruined this game with censorship, wallet destructive tactics, gaslighting, etc. You will need to be something close to a whale or levithan to meaningfully progress in this game after a certain point. Which is absurd. Resource collection is so poor after a certain point that leveling characters become a chore. (Even using the lvl sync system it is a pain)
Don't even get me started on leveling gear and skills. This game was one of my most looked forward games in the year. It is upsetting you can see the diamond it was meant to be in this game, but only to be ruined by greed, false promises, gaslighting, lack of communication, absurd bugs that shouldn't even exist.
/An entire 5-star unit is useless. Vesti, her ultimate only deals 1 damage and has since launched. They just got around to fixing it. But there will be more bugs. Heck, I don't have enough SSRs to know all the bugs, but there is a lot so it makes half you cast useless./
Oh and the game punishes you for being underpowered. I don't mean massively underpowered, I mean 1-100 points under power will result in a massive debuff on your team. But 1 point over the rec. power you will stomp the fight that was slaughtering you.
Anyway, my biggest gripe is the censorship and gaslighting. However, there are countless issues and mismanagement by the current management. Despite my love for this. The value of this game is practically zero.
Just play anything else. Path to Nowhere slaps, play that.
alright after 3 months they fix the game a bit but still buggy hell games compare able to cyberpunk 2077 disaster buggy release and event also getting better as well, no more stupid gamble bullshit dice game or other bullshit, please fired anyone give those idea from the office. still looking where this game will go " getting better or Worse in the future". also reminder this game extremely not F2p friendly with extremely low resource to get gems for gacha. chapter 13 story or above not give you any gems at all.
I've been playing this game for quite a while now, and I must say I quite enjoy playing the game. There might be bad experiences from its launch, but even then I'd still recommend you to try it.
So here are my ups and downs...
UPs:
- Jiggles
- Graphics
- Story
- Sound
- Gameplay
- Events
DOWNs:
- Bugs (it always gets fixed tho, albeit not fast enough)
- Monetization (I highly suggest to just buy event passes for extra resources and monthly pack, if you are looking for really good values)
- Pull rates (on the low side)
- Molds (I always get sweaty here whenever I open them)
Bottomline:
I'm not going to a critic when it comes to censorship. They're sexy enough despite floating laws and other stuff. I just wish that in their regular pass to have costumes glamourous enough to the price they're pushing, make some skill glamour or make their guns colorful. Other than those things, I really suggest to try it.
