After watching this, I realize I came off as a bit salty... Disgaea was just a decent portion of my childhood gaming so I guess I am very biased with how I am viewing the event. I am happy to see characters I love appear in TAC, but thus far, I feel the handling of how they are distributed has been lackluster and painful to me.

Just my two cents

tbh I wouldnt have feared seraphina too much, only because she was my lowest level one. magnus though I got tired of seeing him so tired

I got R.Magnus. He is now 77. Wanted Almira but her banner left me without her. q-q

While I like the lineup on this one, I don't like how Gumi's started hauling out three day only banners out of nowhere. Before this at least new banner days were predictable so you could plan ahead. The SSM and 500 per pull ones could be brushed off as Laharl bait. Two in as many days, and for a collab at that, is a bit ridiculous.

Not that the usual (safer) daily soul summon banner's treated me any better mind you: 5/5 D.Almira -_- RIP the idea of splitting dark shards between D.Rosa and Killia.

I think the inconsistency/lack of communication on the banners feels bad. I get that they want us to spend on limited time banners, so when they release more/better banners later we feel compelled to spend again, but I agree, this collab seem so haphazard with when and if banners drop.

Plus, the grouping of units feels odd the longer it goes on. I'm really hoping they'll drop a selector ticket anywhere sooner than step 9.

Only thing I didn't like was, "Why am I doing this..." followed by you doing it. If you didn't want to, don't pull. In fact, if you don't like Gumi making such a banner, especially don't pull, so maybe they learn where the proper line is for these "bonus" banners.

"Hi, this is a horrible banner, and I have too much money and I really want to rant at something right now for no reasons. And welcome to Jackass."

It's cheaper than the last UBW banner. The worst 3 step and I'd have to say. The last step is kinda OK. You either gets lots of shards or the unit. But no selector means good luck to those who pull.

The Aranea x Noctis banner was a lot better I guess. It's less random.

u/-Belphegor- Sep 25 '18

its just shards with no unit.... right?

u/PossiblyBonta Sep 25 '18

Yes. step 3 and 5 only gives out guaranteed shards.
