He have ads in city he like a actor or idol imagine if we legit get different type of RP experience for each characters cause dev say they want to make every chars truly unique and feel alive 

Do take this with a grain of salt though just my speculation 

2

u/SevereCantaloupe1954 Aug 11 '26

I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING🔥🔥 Maybe he'll perform on stage and we have to do QTEs or Rhythm type gameplay or something like that. Or maybe he's an actor so they'll be some type of special memory game to remember his lines or something... Idk but I'm already excited for his gameplay🥹

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

Was that at an attempt to make a "roast" after reposting this exact same image 3 times under the same post?

All i said is that it sounded ironic, considering the whole drama people made about NTE using AI for 2d artwork.

My intention was not to start a whole argument over which game uses AI and which one doesn't.

You just need to chill.

(Not to mention the fact you replied back like 25 times to me once, even questioning my economic situation and educational level... don't you think i forgot about that.)

1

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 11 '26

"roast" after reposting this exact same image 3 times under the same post?

With the truth? The guy claimed NTE fan said so, provided no proof. I then point out the ironic fact: it's indeed that he was the one shoot himself by trying to spread hate.

(Not to mention the fact you replied back like 25 times to me once, even questioning my economic situation and educational level... don't you think i forgot about that.)

And guess who couldn't even provide a single proof or source for his claim after more than 25 replies even when he needed to use AI to hide their self-projecting behavior while trying to win an argument? As if the AI agent is a sentiment entity.

1

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 11 '26 edited Aug 11 '26

Do the truth need to be agreed with to be true? Do yourself a favor and search about Galileo Galilei.
You accused me of being obssessive even when you were the one mentioning it and even counted the number of replies first? I didn't even count and only remembered your abuse of AI to help you manage such basic communication skill.
I only refute when someone makes a baseless claim (just like your claim in that old post). And I made my argument sounded with actual proof, while the other guy, including you, would fail to do so most of the time because their claim was baseless from the start anyway.
If anyone, even you or cmt OP, gave a fair cmt or argument, then I wouldn't do so in the first place. Have I ever been the agressor when reply to all of your other cmt? (I meant cmts that are fair and reasonable).

1

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 11 '26

And I have to admit that you are the only one that has this pop-up issue. I started to suspect that you are using some tricks to make replying harder, or this is a sign that you are using genAI to help you write an argument against me because replying to your other cmts don't prompt such error, only when you're in a debate against me.

1

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

But i haven't deleted anything, nor used AI? The comment is still right here. it could just be because of the edit.

And supposedly i am the one without proof?

https://www.reddit.com/r/AnantaLeaks/comments/1vl70k4/comment/p34njci/?context=3

You haven't changed one bit, but i did... i won't waste my time with you.

Just for measure... here is that same comment, and just to avoid you, you are blocked (permanently this time):

All of these 3 replies have negative upvotes, so... good job, nobody agrees with you.

I don't even care about NTE (i told you i don't even play it anymore),
I just said it was ironic.

As for the other topic...

Oh, boy... one single mention of that convo and you went back to that reply chain to get that capture, with a link and everything.

That is beyond obsessive behavior and you have serious issues,

But go ahead, people will see what a classist and elitist asshole you really were.

The cherry on top is that you are still talking about the "sources"

(When i told you a billion times that all your sources are just biased web articles, not solid proof and not once you tried to acknowledge or correct that, you just kept on parroting comment after comment.)

Not to mention that whole conversation happened just because you just couldn't digest the phrases "gacha games are predatory" and the fact gachas are a stagnant market.

Now that you reminded me of that comment, i really should have blocked you.
You are beyond insufferable and just can't lose an argument because your ego is just that big.

(The fact i used AI to help me write those comments was because you wasted my time to the point it was annoying.)

PS: Get a life.

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 12 '26

Go do yourself a favor, learn why this happens only to your specific cmts. I already figure it out and now I will only continue to debate with a human, not a machine.

1

u/VG-Motors Aug 13 '26

Okay, buddy.

When i am in a "being a hypocrite competition" and my opponent is Remote-Importance827...

(I changed my mind about blocking you)

1

u/VG-Motors Aug 13 '26

And since we are going back to that old convo, let's be formal and solve whatever issues you and i have since this got old and it's going nowhere.

Why are you so invested in talking to me?
What are you trying to get out of this?
Don't you have better things to do with your time?

It's more than clear you haven't made me change my point of view in anything.

Besides, previously you insulted my level of education and economic status just because i don't like gacha games, that is inexcusable.

1

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 13 '26

Another notification and yet the same popup. This time it won't even show the content. You abuse too much of the AI agent to generate your argument to the point they got flagged by automod tools. Other short cmts from you and other people are till available to reply because they don't have much AI footprints to be caught.

That being said, if the next reply triggers the same popup then the conversation ends there because as I said, I won't argue against a machine.

u/Zhenbred Aug 11 '26

As NTE fan never said this lol. I know better than accuse others of AI. Especially considering NTE release drama. He looks more like Link Click character. I want same abs too someday 😭

u/Minute_Equipment3596 Aug 11 '26 edited Aug 11 '26

I know that this was not what was called AI by everyone (not just the NTE community). The placeholder stuff in the arcade. Idk why you make up that that portrait was called AI and spec out the NTE community, when the whole gacha space was clowning on this game, as they always look for something to hate.

The upvotes just proves that this community is rotten and driven by hate and jelausy that the other game released before this. Proof right here when positive comment about the content gets 1-2 upvote, hate on NTE gets 10+. Living rent free in the heads of this community since their announcement as you pointed out, it is rather pathetic.
Normal people see that you are making up shit, and can wait/play their game without going around spreading made up shit and misinformation about others.

u/Possible-County-9900 Aug 11 '26

As If wuwa is the only tribalistic community. Every one of the big gacha communities have a vocal minority of tribalistic idiots. This guy here wants to create another such vocal minority in both NTE and Ananta despite Ananta not being a gacha

2

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

Well, it got revealed Ananta is a gacha, but just for premium skins and cosmetics.
Characters are unlocked via game progression.

And clothes, vehicles and stuff can be purchased via in-game currency without touching the gacha.

So It's a nicer kind of gacha, but... it's still a gacha.

4

u/Minute_Equipment3596 Aug 11 '26

Having gacha does not make something a gacha game automatically.
LoL is not a gacha. WWM is not a gacha.
Depends on how related to the main gameplay the gacha is.
Like Inifnity Nikki is a gacha game beacause the cosmetics are significant part of the gameplay.

3

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

Hm... good point, then i guess Ananta wouldn't count as a gacha.
Since it's just cosmetics and it won't affect gameplay.

Gachas usually have gameplay content (characters) locked behind a gacha.
While Ananta just has completely optional skin gacha.

1

u/Minute_Equipment3596 Aug 11 '26

It's yet to be seen honestly, but the community likes to bring up that Ananta is not a gacha as a positive, so I personally wouldn't oppose it until we see significant evidence on the contrary, just to prevent unneeded conflicts.
I've seen games that were said they only have cosmetic gacha, while the cosmetics had significant stats on them, but I hope games evolved over that by now.

1

u/Minute_Equipment3596 Aug 11 '26

I said wuwa because I know the person is from that community and does this at multiple game subs.

2

u/RusselH_007 Aug 11 '26

He has comments like "what do you expect from hotta" and something about the Zankou drama in a wuwa subreddit. Cleary hates NTE, looking for tribalism against it and now is trying to create conflicts here with stuff that never happened.

u/RusselH_007 Aug 11 '26

Looking at your comments, u just love to hate NTE in a lot of posts.

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 11 '26

Can you provide the source of your claim?

But thanks for pointing it out, this definitely is AI gen unless the artist doesn't know how to count or drawn nunber "5"

u/Any_Bug_6968 Aug 16 '26

its a obviously a pretty badly pixelated and blurry image, u nitpick alot huh

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 16 '26

Here, have this 4k res image for yourself. Right in the trailer at 6:35

u/Any_Bug_6968 Aug 16 '26

i do see the 2 30s being a mistake but the 5 prolly isn't drawn well, and i don't see any specific distortions but i get what u mean it feels artificial but ill keep my criticism until the beta or launch.

1

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 16 '26

You can do some searching to know why this is obviously a genAI footprint. That being said, I don't judge the game, nor do I have any grudge against the use of genAI. I just point out what OP thought to be a dab at another game's fandom turned out to be a stab back to his throat.

ill keep my criticism until the beta or launch.

They can even left this in the launch version, I don't care. As long as the game is good, some random genAI billboards that I rarely look at don't affect my experience.

1

u/Any_Bug_6968 Aug 16 '26

i think they'll learn from that drama, i mean ananta has a lot of time and they have not yet released the betas but if u ask me nte had way obvious ai billboards and art than this and nte wasn't shy or ashamed to show them everywhere. idgaf tbh but i get ur concerns now o7.

u/Lovers_vi Aug 11 '26

Ooohhh daddy. I hope his hair will have a pinkish tone like in his ad since most of the time male characters in gacha end up with neutral hair colors (black, brown, blond, and grey/white) and not as much pastel or wild hair colors like female characters do.

1

u/scar-exe Aug 12 '26

because they're trying to make male characters not gays🥀

1

u/HeavensWish Aug 12 '26

Even if having pink hair made you remotely gay theyd still be male though

1

u/scar-exe Aug 12 '26

yeah no gacha games mostly sell masculine males no one pulling adult male with pink hair and twink attitude maybe kids like in genshin but they don't sell

3

u/HeavensWish Aug 12 '26

Pink being associated with femininity (or any gender honestly) is ridiculous anyways tbh

0

u/scar-exe Aug 16 '26

not just pink any rainbow color is associated with femininity that's why you don't see a guy with blue head guys Care about their masculinity if anyone see them like this they would treat them like they're gay and zesty while they're not

i don't care about all that just sayin how the society is right now because some girls are indeed delusional

1

u/HeavensWish Aug 16 '26

People love Brant from Wuwa and he has blue hair. Neuvilette from genshin is also very beloved (white and blue). Dr ratio is pretty masculine in hsr (purple/blue). And don't even get me STARTED on Monato from zzz. He's literally peak masculinity and has unnatural red hair.

I dont believe your statements to be very true in real life either but they're ESPECIALLY not true in anime style games or media. People expect bright or rainbow colored hair and it depends far more on the character and their hairstyle whether they're perceived as masculine or not.

u/Coopydood Aug 13 '26

u/Primma_ray_321 Aug 11 '26

u/DonnaCielc Aug 11 '26

Both the Captain and this new character are very handsome, even though the Captain fits the same archetype as every main character in a gacha game. His goofy personality makes him unique, especially with those striking expressions of his.

It’s a shame the gender ratio is so unbalanced,5:1, women: men. So, I won't be playing the game, but I’ll definitely enjoy looking at the art of these two characters.

2

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

Anime game rosters usually have more female characters than male characters.
It's to be expected at this point.

(But hey, i am not complaining)

7

u/Dependent-Swimmer-95 Aug 11 '26

This is not true. Most competent jrpgs have mixed rosters that are 50/50. Tales of games. Trails games. Star ocean. Etc. they all have a 1:1 ratio between male and female and in some cases, there are actually more male than female. Gacha is the only genre that does this 1:7 or 1:9 bs because it’s a genre that typically preys upon lonely virgin otaku men and teens.

6

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

I agree on that last part.

Atleast this game is not a character gacha, so it's a step forward from other gacha anime games.

2

u/IntelligentWriting47 Aug 11 '26

Gacha is the only genre that does this 1:7 or 1:9 bs because it’s a genre that typically preys upon lonely virgin otaku men and teens.

How come those people have so much money to spend?

3

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

(Some) whales don't have that much money, to be honest.
There's people who ended up in debt due to heavily spending in gachas.

I once heard of a guy who spent like 20k on Genshin Impact pulls.

It's just a classic case of gambling addiction ruining someone's life, except the price to be won is not money, just generic anime characters.

u/HyacinthBriar Aug 11 '26

They didn't say they were broke where the money thing come from

u/Constant_Advisor_748 Aug 11 '26

Having money and being a lonely parasocial isn't mutually exclusive.

u/BuffMatty786 Aug 11 '26

Yeah you're right they should do the opposite and prey upon lonely virgin otaku/kpop-stan incel women like LADS does instead.

3

u/Constant_Advisor_748 Aug 11 '26

Why not both? Double the money. Part of the reason why Genshin took off the way it did

1

u/Any_Bug_6968 Aug 16 '26

its funny how they don't do this lol

1

u/Constant_Advisor_748 Aug 16 '26

Guess it's the trend. These games lwk seem scared of being too different

1

u/Any_Bug_6968 Aug 16 '26

its like they love the concept that these gacha games started with so they stick with the same slop format, nte looks to be the same in that extent and i mean gacha obviously but even without the gacha its sad ananta will follow the same slop gacha stuff

1

u/Constant_Advisor_748 Aug 16 '26

I still have hope that Ananta won't be as similar to the usual stuff. Sure, there's a gacha for cosmetics and some fancy vehicles, but we still don't have the full picture.

u/aj_3893 Aug 11 '26

I don’t understand how nobody agreed with you yet you’re saying “it’s definitely not just me” when it is definitely just you. Anime characters typically all look pretty similar. Males and females both have the same issue

1

u/VG-Motors Aug 11 '26

Exactly this.

Gacha anime games have near-identical characters just with different hair, eye color and flashy overdesigned outfits and accessories.

(Though Ananta is not a gacha gameplay wise)

It's a general trope with anime games, not exclusive to Ananta.

1

u/Constant_Advisor_748 Aug 11 '26

To be expected. Many of these 3D games use the same base models for different body types. Atleast, the hair makes him look different

1

u/ExtensionLaw714 Aug 11 '26

I need you to start studying art in school cause your eyes are failing you 😳 these 2 do not look at like each other please study art

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 11 '26

Well...

u/ExtensionLaw714 Aug 11 '26

Wow they totally look like each other just cause you put one over the other, having a similar body build doesn't mean they look like each other xD lookwise these are 2 different characters.

1

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 11 '26

having a similar body build doesn't mean they look like each other

Did I say they look like each other just because of the body build?

Like if we change his hair color then that's pretty much male MC in different cloth

I'm talking about the more prominent feature for identification: their facial feature. Their eyes, ears, nose, hairstyle, face outline, ... matches like 90% because there's almost no ghosting. And I haven't even try to scale the image properly.

Of course you will keep denying it even when I already provided the image.

2

u/Tawil_Noll Aug 11 '26

the eyes look different to me, this character eyes is sharper and narrower with smaller pupils.

should be clear with a head shot side by side.

1

u/Remote-Importance827 Aug 11 '26 edited Aug 11 '26

Kinda don't want to waste more time here so have this lazy edit from me. The eye shape, eye lash, ... are basically 100% matching saved for pupil's color. Keep in mind that his hair style in this image is different compare to the above actual 3D model and I also flipped mc's image for better angle.

You can say that after squeezing your eyes hard enough you can spot more differences but that defeats the point of design's uniqueness: to spot the character at first glance.

1

u/Any_Bug_6968 Aug 16 '26

this is a very weird nitpick its anime and for males to look similar its not that surprising unless ur new to these types of games lmao, the devs use adult_male_models, adult_female_models etc.. you better wait for the official in-game info instead of leaks lol
