#Luvia... Kinetic?

Didn't the devs say there wont be back to back LDs? It seems luvia is kinetic from the PV, and if sharon is LD, we are essentially getting back to back to back LDs COST-WISE this season. Are the devs in their right mind? As if the component RNG bs wasnt bad enough, they want to kill their game even harder?

Also, no communication on the chips situation? Talking to 1 or 2 players is not communication. It won't stop the rest from leaving. Please have some sense of urgency.

Even as a spender, I can say that with luvia being kinetic and sharon potentially being LD, will push me one step closer towards quitting. Imagine the f2ps.

LOL
You are waiting for good communication from they? Unfortunately, they never had that.

Jack just shows up every 2 or 3 months telling some 💩 and disappears again.

Etheria it's a niche game and they don't know what to do with it.

From the beginning, they've been making mistake after mistake.
Even though the community says they should handle things transparently.

Play while you're still having fun. And soon they'll finish destroying the game.

Seems like the schedule is now LD > Kinetic + RGB > LD > 2 RGB, repeat

They gonna make it such that we get LD/Kinetic on every rotation. That's what I feel looking at these devs from the start of the game. Lowan + santik was the first time RGB was released with LD. It set the precedent. After that, we got kinetic. After that, it was kinetic into LD into RGB. Now we have LD -> kinetic -> LD (potentially). Wonder what's next and what's left of this game.

The devs will wonder why revenue drop even though the average whale now spends more. Cause all the other ppl contributing just left the game. Pity the guy who came up with the foundation of the game, all his hardwork wasted by some shortsighted, out-of-touch development team and shareholders.

Nah next season will be:

kinetic +rgb > LD + rgb > "collab" unit (LD cost)

Also all new imprints and components

To combat RNG, also u get 1 dice to reroll ur component, the rest u needa pay $$ for.

"Devs need to make money 😭 ". With low player count only way is for each remaining player to make up for players who quit

"It's a marathon not a race" for players. But it's a race to get money out of players not marathon because they will quit sooner or later

It would be great if we get 2 RGB, so lets pray thats the case

#

But this season back to back to back LDs cost wise is ridiculous

#

Ah by rotation, i mean a set of banners, not the season, meaning every 3 weeks it looks like there will be 1 kinetic/LD

vale spear
#

I remember these devs said at launch they will only do 1 banner at a time

dire maple
#

They said they wouldnt do back to back LD if i recall correctly

#

And then they introduce "kinetic"

#

So they can do LD into kinetic and say its not back to back LD

#

😂

They can do back to back, but please provide us more gems and tickets..lmao

Based on good trend

Liliam, plume, ray were all LDs released without RGBs. Then they introduced Lowan + Santik. Somehow there was little to no uproar for the sudden LD + RGB cycle. Since devs got away with it easily,
from thereon out LD were mostly introduced with RGBs.

Then they introduced kinetic last season, which was fine if there was a 3 weeks gap between kinetic and LD. But for the devs, kinetic was just an excuse to have kinetic into LD, so they can claim its not back to back LD. At least the last set of banners for ss3 was 2 RGB.

But now this season, every set of banner seems to have LD/Kinetic.

Based on the progressive p2w trend of the banners, I'm saying that kinetic/LD will be in every set of banners in the following season. Of course, it would be amazing if thats not the case. But this season banners arent helping that case.

Its really quite impressive how many characters they're pumping out though. Deepseek working overtime

dire maple
# vale spear Well they need money

Agreed. But why cant they also work on other revenue streams like skins?

The skin scene is so poor in etheria right now. Of course it wouldnt bring revenue like banners/hyperkernel do, but its still a revenue stream.

They could be monetizing skins much harder and people would be buying if they made proper skins for units like ray, xuan li, lowan etc.

Instead they release one for linglou who is much less used and put it under the monthly pass which people are gonna buy REGARDLESS of whether her skin is there.

As for the effort required to make skins, there have been plenty of people in this discord using AI to make skins for fun, and some of them actually aren't bad. So I don't understand...

#

And with the rate they release banners, they could afford to release 2 skins every 3 weeks

dire maple

#

I think its harder to make skins for 3d models.

#

Like etheria's

#

Recolors is easy but actual skins require alot more work

dire maple
# vale spear Recolors is easy but actual skins require alot more work

I see, im not knowledgeable about that. Then maybe, yes, its understandable that they release slower.

However, releasing the skin of a unit that is less used into a monthly pass that will be bought regardless of whether the skin is there or not is still just a stupid decision🤣

Idk man

#

Its frustrating, cause i genuinely like the game

#

But they are losing more and more players, forget getting new players, very quickly

I’m trying to imagine how it would feel coming in as a newbie at the current iteration of the game. I don’t know if I would stay. Sunken cost fallacy is what’s keeping me around, and the hope it improves but a new person? Yikes haha. As for the topic, yeah the banners are getting more and more predatory as well and it’s incremental enough that people aren’t noticing or are defending it. It’s kinda cringe actually. It’s a shid sandwidge but hey it could be worse at least it’s on toasted brioche type stuff haha

  • Qano is LD since the post about his banner says “extre-affinity” lol. Simultaneous kinetic + LD is absurd

Oh didnt catch that, maybe the recent post was just a typo then

Nobody has an idea on what the devs are doing, stop assuming there is no point to it. The same way last season everybody thought asal will be kinetic and this season that sharon will be kinetic.

LD, kinetic and there going to be a new one for sharon call baddies

Well well well

#

Back to back to back LDs cost wise, good job XD

But if next banner is kinetic, we know that these guys are gonna do kinetic/LD every banner till the maincords drops to below 40k, and they understand that they fked up the longevity of the game in search of short term profits. Then they might try to fix it but im sure they will revert back to their old ways since that seems to be the recurring cycle of events

Most likely double rbg next ld then kinetic

#

Then ld double rgb then ld

luvia she ain't no real kinetic

Luvia is great, but definitely not a must have in pvp like Kethos Fia Ray Xc Xl. We shall see how Sharon plays out, but with the f2p approach you can safely pull the ld banner even on pity if you are smart with your shop exchanges etc. Also, characters are not the bottleneck, lattice is. I would simply prefer if we got another rgb together with Sharon, to get an opportunity for people to pull either way if possibles.

dire maple
#

So lattice is a bottleneck but you prefer for another unit to be released with sharon. Interesting😂

Imo that has changed. It feels like you get slightly less ld pulls now with the revamp of the battlepass.

In fact it feels like you get tons more normal pulls but ld pulls have become slightly rarer.

However i do not have any concrete numbers. At this point i would normally sit at around 60+ ld pulls. I havent changed what i prioritoze in shops and i current have about 46 ld pulls on me.

I have the feeling its bc we havent had that many events that give ld pulls but do give hyperkernel stuff + changes to battlepass that also prioritize hyperkernel over ld pulls.

#

Hmm might be, I havent played that long and cant really compare… But to be fair, I do believe if one prioritises well, they can get competitive in a relatively short amount of time. My account is 75< days old and am in Master with some light spending and multiple mistakes

dire maple
#

We wont be saying we have enough pulls when the devs chose to release LD/kinetic every banner, seems thats the direction they are headed anyways. Reminder theres been more LD+kinetics than RGB this season, which is super unhealthy.

#

Wouldnt be surprised if they add another currency as well, for the collab

cinder crystal
#

They are basically not keeping anything they have ever said since beta.

I'm guessing they finally felt like they have to monetize pulls like every other gacha.

#

I just hate how jack came out and said he wants to see more RGBs but every decision his dev team has made so far is the complete opposite of what he says he wants.

#

I want to love this game but this company is making it really hard.

#

LDs were never released with RGBs initially

#

At least over the seasons, they have progressively made banners more p2w. One season they began introducing LD with RGB, another season introducing kinetic, and this season back to back to back LDs cost-wise. So theres quite an obvious trend, if you look at each season.

Rainbow kinetic LD

dusty lark
#

a season is 3 banner of lengths, we have 3 types of character with LD, kinetic and RGB, why not have 1 of each type of banner per season? its cleaner that way too

Yo wtf is this sht

LD > KINETIC > LD > KINETIC WITH RGB > LD > ????
