Decent

The game's gacha itself is decent, people who complain the rates are low are just purely unlucky, it's a gacha game, some characters are bound to be pity pulled, not all characters are supposed to be obtainable when it first releases if you aren't going to spend for it. If someone complains about needing 200 pulls to get a character vs a person who gets it in 50, some are luckier than others. People also complaining about this game's gacha should be trying Fate if they REALLY think it's bad. The story is definitely mediocre, definitely better games with better story and lore. This game passes as a side game and not as a main game where you should be so heavily invested in, if you haven't started during week of release you'll be finding yourself in a struggle to keep up with people who are running around with meta if you aren't going to be tossing money like candy. Overall I like the game for it's art and cuteness, I don't invest myself in the game for hours like others to finish up dailies, some events are weak in rewards and could definitely be improved. If you genuinely dislike the game, go join a group so you may/may not see the game in a different light.

I want to give this 5/5 stars but…

I love this game. Everything about it. The characters, gameplay, story, events everything is perfect. And the dev team behind this game really do care about the game and I thank them for that. I thank them for listening to the player base, most recently being a certain line about a princess being fixed, which made the fan base very happy. But the only thing that is stopping me from giving the game a 5 out of 5 is the issues with the English translation/localization that show up with new content added to the game. The most recent example is a character named Aris who describes her self as a “yuusha” a Japanese word for “hero”. But was translated to “warrior” in the global release, which is completely the wrong meaning for her character and actions she takes entirely. And is leaving a bad feeling amongst part of the player base. It has even reached the Japanese player base who are now confused that the JP server and the Global server are different versions of Aris, or that the regions have different meanings of the term “Yuusha” and has spread some confusion. I do hope they change the translation to “Hero” for the Aris we all know and love I do love this game and want it to be the best it can be and I know it can be. Thank you for your time reading this. If the dev team have fixed issues mentioned in this post, please see this review as 5 out of 5 stars. And Sensei’s, please enjoy Blue archive!

Cash grab that plays decent

Honestly not a bad game. Put alot of work into the story (whether people like it or not), but the rates are trash. Honestly feels like they are baiting you with first few pulls getting decent rewards, then your next 15 x10 rolls you get nothing. Get rates like ML Adventure to be successful, they actually care about their players not just their wallets =\ EDIT: tried to continue playing and i just cant do it. Saved up a ton of gems to try pulling again to have same thing happen. The rates are the worst ive seen in a gatcha game >.< nexon lives up to its reputation unfortunately. Dropped from 2 to 1 star since u cant progress in game when u get no players to use.

Raising back to 2 star due to active response team. As for a suggestion, put in a better system that increases rate of higher character the more you fail to pull the highest tier characters, then resets back after you gain one. Since gatcha is all about random chance, some people may still get many bad rolls in a row, but when a 10x roll costs a decent amount of money (for those who pay for cash shop items/gems), pulling 150 to get no higher tier characters is a severe let down as well as feeling like you just burned all your money you have nothing to show for it. ALL IN ALL, a better safety system for better chances of not getting screwed would be huge. That is the 1 fix that would bring a player like myself back to game. Thank you for the reply!
