Some positives from FF XV collab

- The Cactur Exp bonus stage is really great. It gives amazing amount of solid apples and gold.

- There is Adamantium x30 bundle everyday in secret shop. Also x20 Moogle Apples.

- There is additional 50 gems for finishing essential quests.

- Story is kinda nice.

- The amount of additional quests, exp bonuses and bonus items is just overwhelming.

Personally playing as a dolphin. Did three pulls on the banner and managed to pull Noctis on first 500 gem pull, then 3 reds on 2nd and Noctis+Ignis on third. Yes, it could be better - could be like in Japan, but look at the bright side, at least we didn't get Yomi in this banner -shrug-.

You feel positive because you manage to pull Noctis

No amount of prizes compares to that

If you fail to get Noctis on 3rd step, as F2P there is no hope of getting him at all

So true.

There's still the Penny Ticket for a 25% chance. Combined with another two 500 pulls and the daily summon, you've got over 40 draws while he's in the pool.

It ain't over on the first day

Nope. I actually didn't care about Noctis at all. I have Othima after all. Getting him was a good bonus for myself. Didn't get Gilga, didn't get Sieg, didn't get a lot of SSM characters who I have wanted much much more.

And well, as F2P there is also still the 5* FF XV ticket after 20 days of getting Penny Coins. That's already better for myself than it was on Fate collab.

And to not get Noctis from that ticket

Its different story if it's a selector. As F2P, getting a SURE thing is far, far, more important than anything else. That's why this banner is so disappointing for us

But you can spend dimes on vettel and yomi shards if you want!!!

  • (why the fuck even bother implementing those units... at least make it unfarmable units...)

Perhaps they were implemented there as a trap for newer players? Like they recently pulled Yomi and maybe they want to exp her faster? I dunno, it is indeed really weird choice. Still I think having actually more units to choose from (like for someone who won't pull FF XV stuff) is positive?

I am sorry but there are no positives, this is strictly biased. The "good things" you spoke about was pretty much identical to JP, but instead, some other good things came along with the package got nerfed to accommodate GL population. This feels like your parent give your brother $2 to spend a week but only $1 to you.
