Just as sexy if not sexier

I was watching a play through of this and noticed how odd the 2D story section animations are. The 3D animations are amazing but the 2D is so bizarre where only the face has animation. There is no live2D body animation - just the face which looks a lot worse than recent games that do live2d and face animations like CounterSide or Nikke

In case people are confused with the dates for anchors and rate-ups...

Hate to break it to you all but the GAME just isn’t very good. The character models/animations are pretty much the only S tier thing about this clearly rushed project. It will definitely get some good global income the first few months but it’s going to drop just like CN because the game just is a disappointment.

>>1558638
I can see that. Low tier game usually survive by pandering to niche audience (waifu, husbando, furry, sexiness, etc.) and they'll simply die without it. The fact that GFL2 almost died means that the game itself isn't that good.

I think it's really nice that the game has non-binary waifus for those so inclined. I haven't really seen that elsewhere and it only makes sense imo, more varieties of waifu = more potential simps of all types ready to play. Like, I might actually play this game now.

That said, we will have to come up with a word for a gender neutral waifu/husbando. Spousu?

Most theaters' core8s required something obscene or specialized, true nolifing.

>>1571567
I've found core 6 harder than core 8 for practically every theater since the switch to electronic warfare battles. The true nolifing is minmaxing your score. I'm too lazy to do anything but switch ARs to using NVGs,

>>1571578
It's nolifing to maximise your score for every battle, but since you do core8 repeatedly and it's just on an excel spreadsheet if you have GFAlarm it's really not that difficult.

Theater as of late is pretty lame. It was more fun when you had to kite and move, whereas now it's just AFK runs except for granny, who we've been fighting for like the past 3 theaters.

It's honestly more exciting figuring out how to connect my GFL to my GFAlarm proxy, convert the preset team Base64 codes to QR codes, then scanning them in via the team download camera. My game is crashy, so I appreciate loading up my entire stack in less time than it takes to manually equip each and every doll, and then losing all progress because GFL wants to shit the bed.

Also, I love Pekora. MICA, lewd skin when??

I'm usually not into ranking, but I actually enjoyed this pseudo ranking map this time around. No random teleporters, no spawn points to milk, no gates and keys or rubble to gatekeep, no 100-node map spread out over 3 layers. Just simple objectives: collect all the lube, kill everything. It felt very obtainable to my smooth brain, and I think I got max points entirely on my own with no guides.

The first one has one of the best storylines of any game ever, you missed out. I can say nothing of the GFL2 storyline though, and admittedly it took a couple of years for the first game's story to pay off.

In other words, spend all your stamina in the story and then play the event when you reach level 20.

I wouldn't be surprised if they did doll alters, they already did it in PNC with Hubble/Dark Star and G36/Unbound Wings.
>surely they won't bother upgrading bad guns to be as good as top ones
I heard that mod key made Alfa/Tololo a god again in CN, like she is now in global. But the thought of someone so good getting powercrept in like six months and needing more powercreep wild.

How do you open more than one box at a time in GFL2?

>>1632895
Early gachas are always like this, we have no proper teams. Independent characters like her shine in the early-game, then it's all about whether or not she fits into a team with proper backing.

TL Anon was put in charge of translating GFL2, so the TL quality for PNC dropped considerably.

Is the first game's gameplay good enough to be worth getting into? Or should I just consume the story stuff via video or whatever?

>>1637710
The game is excellent but feels its age. I think it's worth playing until you have a basic idea of the gameplay and added features (vehicles, HOC artillery, SF capture, etc) at least, but you don't have to trudge through the 8+ years of events if you're not feeling it. I prefer the Cutscene interpreter to YouTube but each to his own.

What should I pick here?

>>1637710
The story is the main reason to pick up both games. Don't forget you have like another 30h of lore in GFL2 inside the Dusty Memories/Journal section of the Server Room.
That said, GFL1 hasn't aged very well so I wouldn't really recommend picking it up unless you really like the gameplay, otherwise just read everything on the cutscene interpreter.
https://gfl.amaryllisworks.pw/#

I'll say that the story is at the start fairly slow and not much happening. Ch5 and 5.5 are where it picks up, and Ch8.5 and Ch10 are the first mindblowing ones IMO.

>>1637720
It's a random box, gives you random SMG muzzles.
> Don't forget you have like another 30h of lore in GFL2 inside the Dusty Memories/Journal section of the Server Room.

Oh shit yeah I should read through those. They sounded interesting from what little I've seen, so I'll start reading sometime soon.

> Ch8.5 and Ch10 are the first mindblowing ones IMO

Good to know that the story does pick up at some point. How long after CN launch did ch10 get released?

> GFL1 hasn't aged very well so I wouldn't really recommend picking it up unless you really like the gameplay

Seems to be the general consensus. Thanks for the tips, I'll read the story on the cutscene interpreter then.

I won't lie, half the reason I was even considering was the art for SCAR-H and ST AR-15 that I saw on the wiki.

I'm sure you understand.

What a disappointment. Low budget, bad studio, manga source instead of game source, the uninteresting early SF fight story, pink haired yuribait fem-MC, boring and unfitting OP song used as a climax insert, just awful.

Really wish that the gacha for GFL2 wasn't so shitty, because I really like the gameplay. I have no luck with gacha games, so it's basically killed any motivation I have for it. I'm also too busy to dedicate time to their events. I wish MICA would wise up that a decent chunk of their (potential) audience doesn't have 10 hours every week to burn through a visual novel. But I guess as long as they can keep the whales busy, they don't care.

>>1639971
GFL2 is one of the lowest maintenance games around, you just burn your stamina with instant autobattles, send logistics, collect your free shop gift, and do 3 PVP battles against level 1 opponents. Some of those aren't even very important. It takes less than 3 minutes, not 10 hours a week. I too prefer GFL but its playtime requirement is massively higher.

>>1640005
Lots of time where you do nothing but then you suddenly have to rush through the event or your lose your hard mode tickets.

>>1640203
That's the same as GFL. Just yesterday I had to do a bloody major event which was released on Christmas Day.

Daily chores definitely aren't that bad, but collapse pieces are still relatively scarce. Not that it matters, since the gacha mechanic sucks anyway. The events are absolutely timesinks, though. GFL wasn't any different in terms of having events stretch out too long, but I just started skipping through the story for those a long time ago. I was just hoping that maybe it'd be better for GFL2, but I can see that it's not.

>>1640342
The story for GFL2 is VA'd. Unless you just skip through or mute them and read through at your own pace, it's going to have roughly the same run time for everyone. Fuck me for thinking that it should take 3 minutes to listen to the story between missions instead of 15. I do enjoy the story, but MICA needs to understand the concept of brevity. I don't care if they add a lot of supplemental materials and throw them in the server room or something, but they should be able to convey the basic idea for each scene and still include some complexity without having to write half of a light novel chapter for each one. Honestly, they could do a hell of a lot just by cutting redundant dialogue.

>>1640369
They used to do a brief summary when you skipped in PNC but that has stopped too

>>1640369
Story is the main thing that matters here, at endgame you're only playing the weekly hard maps, everything else is auto-battle'd.

Skipping the story... you might as well just play something else.

Which is why I probably won't be playing moving forward. I guess I'm just disappointed because I got pretty invested in GFL years ago when I had a lot more free time and I was hoping that GFL2 might allow me to get back into it. To be fair, it was pretty unreasonable to think that GFL2 would be significantly different in regards to how MICA handles events. But I do think the gacha criticisms are valid since those got significantly worse. If I didn't get what I wanted in GFL, I never felt like it was anyone's fault but mine. Even if I did wish for a little more time to complete things. In GFL2, it definitely feels like you need to open your wallet pretty consistently, and even then you could come up with jack.

It's hard to say, I'm waiting for the honeymoon phase to be over to get a good grasp of what the standard monthly income will be.

>Embla battle

I feel like GFL's combat design or MICA's creativity has reached its limit.

At least now the farming map opens early.

>>1641727
>switch bluestacks from dx to vulkan
>suddenly it's fixed
Odd, considering DX had no issues outside of this event.

>>1640369
I don't mind GFL2's event stories so far, even if they are padding. But locking farming with a daily ticket system behind completing story mode is insane. Of course everyone's going to skip the story when you do that.
>>1640408
>just don't touch weapons
Weapons wouldn't be an issue if you could reliably get limited SR (purple) weapons literally anywhere. But you can go to 160 pity on a banner and never see it, while rolling the weapon banner is probably going to pull the SSR weapon before the SR. So e.g. every non-whale with WA is running her with Samosek or SR Mosin because almost no one has the SR WA and those that do almost certainly have a higher dupe Mosin or Nemesis BMG.
>>1640435
That's not the first sniper fairy centric event/theater fight.

>>1645496
I like the event stories. It's the main story that I don't like, nothing's happening at all.
Feels like I'm reading pre-Ch10 GFL1.

>>1645511
Well the game just launched, and honestly, thats an issue with all gachas, the release story and even year one events dont do much in regards of plot because they have to world build, pad things to justify content, after all, they release 5-7 chapters in one go.

>>1645511
So in addition to the horrible gacha, 2 has also regressed to "this week we're fighting THIS gimmicky SF person who will be irrelevant later!"?

>>1648822
Yes, except replace SF with Girard Group, who similarly gets sidelined later on for Paradeus 2.
We're still in the dark about Paradeus 2 so it just feels like we've just swapped to gimmicky Paradeus high rankers.

>>1648866
Do the other spinoffs/sequels do the same thing? PNC?

Amazing how the story falls back to shit when it focuses hard on the AR team like in the SF monster of the week era, but picks up and becomes amazing when it's focused on the Stasi agents except K, who lost all relevance after saving the commander from that one place I guess, Defy, paradeus, and the conspiracies.

I get the feeling he's too competent for the current chink gacha climate. So they focus on J instead, who is merely a lovable idiot.

>Does the commander ever come back, or is he just gone until the sequel?
From what I've seen in scattered spoilers yes and it sounds like next event will be finding a good end among bad ends like CT and Bakery because of relic timeline fuckery.

>>1651051
I'll still take the AR team anyday over GF2 squad with Nemesis and Vepley doing the same joke every 3 lines of text.

>>1651574
I prefer the Groza-Krolik-Nemesis dynamic to AR, but Colphne and Vepley have ruined it. It's also not as good as 404 or DEFY.

>>1641804
AK12 mod story was great and provides some nice closure on Zero Charge.

>>1651051
The next event, Angular Gyrus, will be back on his perspective and will show us what happened at the Elmo.

Man, I really dislike the way MICA tries to tell a story, trying to sound high brow and all that. By the end, I just stare at the game and go "SO, DID WE WIN? DID WE LOSE?? WHO WAS PHONE???"

At least the maps weren't painful.

Ok please help me, I'm not just coming in here to shit on gacha games because it's cool to. I genuinely want to understand and enjoy, but I have never been able to get more than 30 mins into one. I downloaded this hoping maybe I could understand and have fun because the art is cute but as a game it is so ass-fucking mind numbingly BORING and I just have to ask: Does it get interesting as a game? I saw a review on the playstore that said this is the best game ever put on mobile and I start it and the first 5 missions are literally select character and tell them to shoot assholes and the assholes die in one shot and there's no possibility of losing unless you are literally two years old.

I AM GENUINELY ASKING: DOES IT GET MORE INTERESTING? I tried Arknights before and it felt like the same shit except I made it through half the story before realizing it was never going to get more interesting. What is even the point of having the gameplay? Would you all be happier if there was just no gameplay at all and it was just a series of videos with occasional slot machine pulls that spit out anime girls? Did the force of your ejaculations lodge the semen so deep within your cerebral cortex that you now require your anime series to have buttons to stimulate you instead of just watching Strike Witches on Crunchyroll like normal pervs?

Usually people say the appeal of gacha is that it's chill and a way to decompress but literally so are most games. Minecraft is chill, Dynasty Warriors is chill, fucking Dead of Alive Beach Volleyball is chill, why play a gacha game? WHY?

Pic is what made me want to try this gachashit

>>1658260
You can't play the intro missions of a gacha and assume there's no gameplay. To be fair, GFL is a decade old phone game so it is a little dated and slow, although there's a lot of strategy in the old ranking maps. Try GFL2, and wake me up when you've cleared Horde. Arknights is the same, if you haven't cleared the Contingency Challenges on high risk then you haven't played the game.

As for your question, different people play for different reasons. These games are very multi-faceted. Most of their stories are mediocre but GFL is immensely intricate and complicated and interesting. They all start off slow though, GFL's picks up starting in chapter 10/Singularity. Art is obviously hugely important, as is the rest of a character, but don't let the funding model make you assume there's nothing else beneath. In fact, GFL isn't even a gacha, it's a colle. You should have every single one of the 400+ characters without paying a cent. Money is for costumes, just like in many unrelated games for Windows.

So a question for Cartesian Theater
was it ever explained how Lunasia got to the point where she only needed "our" M4 to influence the worldlines? Or it's just some relic bullshit we should just accept at face value?

>>1615990
I feel the same way. Time travel totally ungrounds any story when introduced, and this setting basically has magic and immortality already.

>>1651051
Finally finished reading it and loved it, probably my favourite event since Mirror Stage. DEFY events always take the cake, and RPK is such an intriguing character. The recent events feel too short though, MS was like 3x as long as them.

>>1659433
They've never -explicitly- explained it, though we can make some assumptions.
It's expected that all of the experiments with the Lunasia brain with relics and OGAS started developing a partial consciousness of her in the higher dimensions, as we know that whenever something interacts with relicshit, they get imprinted by it, it wouldn't be surprising for the opposite to happen as well.

Don't forget it was Lunasia who started spreading seeds of herself into the various dolls in order to develop OGAS consciousnesses.
Guess it's the sort of thing that M4 just happens to be the one in a million that is the solution.

>>1615990
William has never lost. He's been straight up winning since the start, he just got a small setback at the end of GF1.
His goals are just ones that will take time to develop, as is the nature of research.

>>1659816
>it was Lunasia who started spreading seeds of herself into the various dolls in order to develop OGAS consciousnesses

Nope, it was Dandelion waaaaay back in Chapter 12.

>>1659940

This Lunasia/OGAS crap pisses me off. Virtual hunger games in wonderland was like the last straw. You're a fucking gacha game.Stop trying to win the Pulitzer Prize. You can't even hire decent translators. It's like watching the last 2 episodes of EVA again. Wolf Pack, our hopes and dreams now lie with you.

Isn't RPK being Laplace's Demon being against Shaw's wishes?

MICAAAAAAAA

I’m thinking about getting into GF, but should I start with GF1 or skip to GF2?

>>1669857
2, 1 is simply too old and outdated.
You may miss out ton of lore and what not but honestly I don't think it's worth to start 1 now.

>>1669857
They're not that similar, play both and see what you like.

>>1669857
I believe Mica has plans to release a standalone version of GFL1 in the next year or three. Just based on freshness of gameplay and story, I'd recommend you play 2 now then when the standalone GFL1 is released play that. I haven't yet played Reverse Collapse yet but it's supposed be one hell of a story. GFL1 is a bit of a slow burn, especially to start, but you'll be in for one hell of a ride after a few hours especially if you have a strong imagination and empathy.

>>1669857
GF1 is hardly worth spending time on nowadays, story aside.
If you're interested in the story, and you should be if you're interested in GFL2's story, you can (in descending order of time required) either watch the cutscenes, read them on the online interpreter, read the summaries, or watch this decent recap vid, which includes links for the other three methods on the description.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuXpn37R1Io
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuXpn37R1Io

>>1670177
They intend to release it in CN before the end of the year.

>>1669857
Don't read summaries, they won't leave you the impact the game is known for.
You need to read the characters' lines, reactions and expressions. At minimum use the cutscene interpreter.

The story in GF1 (and Bakery) is great because it really does an incredible job of making you feel the despair and stakes that everyone is feeling, as they're just trying to get themselves and their loved ones to live one more day amidst all the politics and psychopaths. As a result it can feel a bit verbose at times, but it's worth it IMO.

Downloaded GF2 and have currently reached commander level 28, here’s my doll collection, all using purple gear. Who’s worth using and who’s dogshit?
Also, while I’m nowhere near being able to actually use it, what do covenant rings do beyond allow me to marry my fat shotgun wife? Can I get more without paying, or is haremmaxxing a paid feature?

>>1677078
Master, Dobie does not know how to stop! The tiny glowing box, so small but powerful, it draws Dobie in. I click, I tap, I play, and then more and more, the game never ends! Dobie promises to clean and serve, but the games are too fun, too bright, they make Dobie forget all things! Master would be very cross if he knew Dobie was wasting time on such tricks, but Dobie cannot stop! The addiction is strong! Maybe just one more level... then Dobie will clean, I swear!

>>1676406
haremmaxxing is paid. Only the first ring is free.
The ring gives your doll more permanent stats and a bunch of cosmetics.

Sharkry is the best unit there. Gets better the more burn units you have.
I recommend pulling Suomi from the current banner, otherwise you'll have to use Colphne for healing.
Vepley is ok, not great, but she fulfills a niche in resolving Snow Deichgraf's mechanics on Boss Fight and will definitely help you progress far faster in Tier 6+ which means more weekly rewards faster. Her high movement also helps in cheesing some Peak Value Assessment stages earlier than intended.

Sabrina isn't that great at the start as a lot of her power is locked behind dupes, thankfully you can get V6 for free through Boss Fight. She also can apply hydro weakness, so the more hydro DPSes you have, the more useful she'll become.
Mosin is the same as Sabrina but you can't get free dupes, lightning supports will help when we get them. You'll be able to clear all content albeit they won't be meta.

>>1677078
Considering the entirety of the game's content is easily beatable F2P...
Unless you're getting erections off big PvP rankings or guildies stroking your Gunsmoke cock, I'd say yes you need help.

Anyone care to explain the AG story to me? I followed most of the stuff following the characters but the 5 mini-chapters with Morridow and Machlian confused me a lot. Also, how did SKK get to Frankfurt?

>>1694920
During Summer Garden, the Commander goes visit William in his cell on the Elmo.
Apparently he's ambushed by Paradeus and Lunasia (post-Cartesian Theatre merge), who take him away alongside William. This was prior to Zero Charge, so they could've easily gotten in Frankfurt prior to Embla's plan. The way they got out wasn't explained, but Lunasia's basically a goddess so yeah.

Lunasia babysits the Commander for most of Angular Gyrus, it's implied that it's her own intention, she likely was the reason the Commander wasn't killed by William too. Unfortunately for her, she's not the pure Lunasia that William wants, she's "tainted" by M4 and Dandelion's memories, and was thus discarded.

The Cocoons are an.. alternative to the Lake of Cognition and will be explained better in Isolation Forest, where Operation Cocoon and Laplace will be the focus.

Kalina is a grim and realistic take on a character growing older that instead of bringing back what made the character beloved for fanservice delivers a realistic take that will make us feel nostalgic for the good old days.

Ha, had to resort to the TPS dance to pass. I guess that's better than boring AFK fights.

No issues personally, TPS nailed itn with no dancing required, I just retreated the SGs back one row and let sniper fairy take care of the rest.

Klukai V0 seems kind of trash after pulling her. It looks like she can only wipe same level trash mobs with extra copies. She's way weaker than she ever was in PNC. I haven't caught up on story yet but if the game is gonna whalebait this heavily and G11 doesn't improve her much, I'm done.

It wasn't so bad after I realized I just had to pay attention to DP12's shield. The game is just so old now that everything is either AFK or ultra autism mode.

>>1718396
yeah because you need to KILL two units to trigger double ult and there's no instant poison burst to help you do that

I know how it works. Pic related is v0 klukai with recommended keys and a max level (purple but with precise attachments) weapon in the current expansion drill. It's just a joke if she can't wipe literal fodder without another AOE setup to weaken them or a corrosion weakness.

>>1718417

oops. Her ult hits for about 60% of their health and then she's trapped behind enemy lines. I really don't see what makes her much better, without huge investment or maybe a tricked out Peritya, than bnnuy. She only looks good because current AOE dolls are trash.

>>1718417
Yeah. v0 is fucking garbage. but I like her and her outfit. I have completely given up on late game contents since they're dupe baiting players so hard. I'll still play for waifus and story since I'm a GFL and RC story fan.

>>1718417
For starters, recommended keys are hopefully not the thumbs up shit the game shows. Because that is ILL as fuck advice. Some dolls literally use all 3 keys that DON'T have this symbol as their BIS.

Do not trust that, ever. Like you get 20% more damage on your ult for making its aoe so much smaller. Why would you do this to yourself? You also get 6 additional movement, to relocate afterwards, and if you kill 2+ targets, you can even zoom right back again.
Try pairing her with for example Lotta so you can get those kills.

v0 ain't shit, but surely not nearly as braindead as high dupe versions of her.

Not sure what you're on about, did it first go whole saving HOC and fairy usage in case it got hard. Was way easier than most of the other boss stages we've had this time around.

>>1718615
Did you not get the HL2 striders with spider spawners for the first round? SF murderhobo echelon died on the fight before the boss because two of the enemies are fucking invulnerable with instantly regenerating shields and even 3 AT HOCs can't do shit. Fucking garbage.

Not everyone is meant to succeed. That's why there is Beg/Int/Adv levels. I'd argue that Core 3/6/8 correspond to those levels, except those baldies throw a wrench in that idea.

Liu + close enemy skill focus.

You need kiting and a broke ass RFHG team to beat them. I used python/enfield/liu/colt/webley.

Core 6 has been harder than Core 8 for ages.

I just used bog standard RFHG with Calico and Hanyang and WA and an artillery fairy, was easy as balls.

NTW for me, with Python and Beach Fairy helping. For the last two stages, Welrod MOD did a lot of work keeping the team alive.

>>1718703
6 and 8 aren't supposed to be impossible for everyone but whales and nolifers. I've been able to clear everything in the past 5 theaters, and there's no reason it should be like this right now. Fucking humiliation ritual, being forced to start and cancel five times every day to get rid of the MANDATED safe withdrawls just to be allowed to retreat on the second to last fight and keep your 70000 pity points.

>>1719086
>whales and nolifers
Core 6 basically requiring TPS was bullshit but Core 8 hasn't been that hard in a very long time. Not since they made every theater stage electronic warfare at least. Back when you had to manage doll HP across a run it was way tougher.

To elaborate: I just took a closer look at the damage stats, and Python is responsible for 20+% of total team damage. Make sure to bring her or maybe Rhino if you haven't already.

>>1719086
What strategic benefit do you propose whales get in GFL1?

Imagine having your doll HPs reset after each fight considered hard...

I think they handed TPS out twice because I somehow got 2.

The alternate strat was double SPAS. I didn't try it as I saw videos of dolls dying and decided on the "no dying" strat.

>>1719171
Python is good. But the team I slapped together was Px4 Storm MOD / Kar98k MOD / Pekola / Python / other, that being the order of DPS depending on who's leader. I feel any high DPS RF should cut it. I just love Pekola's animations.

Resetting health between rounds doesn't do dick for invincible enemies whose shields and health constantly regen.

Previous impossible core 8s at least let you run core 6 for the best amount of pity points you can get. They made that impossible too this time because they're cunts. I'll bet the fucking HOC you get out of this is shittier than the ones you already have by this point too.

How do the recent HOCs stack up anyway? I doubled up on mortars for Core 6 and PP-93 outshot 2B14 at times, but otherwise, I don't really know what their niche is.

>>1720021
The most recent AGL is better than the second most recont, but in almost every case, the first BGM, AGL, and MTR beats all subsequent ones in all skills.

>>1719888
This core 8 is beatable with a bog standard RFHG though

The HOCs that are worth the most CE in these boss stages are SF, tho. With 3 SF HOCs and randomly choosing RF's from my pool, I haven't had any trouble clearing 8. Px4 Storm Mod usually does over 50% of the damage count.

They are only worth more if you have them oathed or duped.

True, but at this point in time, the ringleaders have come around multiple times, and the game gives you enough free resources to pull them at least once per cycle.

Yeah I do have a few with dupes now but eh

So PNC is basically finished right? End of story and all that.

Now this is just a fucking joke. One of the fairy nodes is completely broken. I left it running for a while to see if it would unfuck itself but no.
