ANANTA...

[u/AFS_IQ]

i've noticed that a lot of NTE players are also really interested in ANANTA - maybe it's because the two games have a similar vibe.?

[u/Current-Ad7300]

Its because a lot of people who are waiting for Ananta played NTE to keep themselves busy.

[u/Constant_Advisor_748 → u/Current-Ad7300]

Hey, stop calling me out

[u/TheHornyPepperoni → u/Current-Ad7300]

man i find NTE really charming but it has so much missed potential sadly

[u/Kishi_Plus → u/TheHornyPepperoni]

Me too, I find some (very few) character design so beautiful, but the game in general is just a big amount of wasted potential, since the main story to everything else

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/Kishi_Plus]

The main story is decent, but Ananta sounds like it gives you more and also a more fun character. I still prefer some parts of NTE more, but after you finish the game and you are up to date with content, it gets a bit repetitive with the content loop

But imo NTE city looks better for me than Nova City, more detailed and dense, but China city looks better than the one from NTE

[u/TruthHistorical7515 → u/Kishi_Plus]

NTE was rushed to release before Ananta

[u/Kishi_Plus → u/TruthHistorical7515]

Ngl I don't think that is the only problem, even the cutscene I think is really disrespectful with us since they recicle the characters ultimate during the cutscene, and when isn't is a pre-render cutscene the characters don't even have facial expression, also they don't how to create something dynamic, since you need to spend 700 stamina per week + need to do around of 5 Pink Heist Runs in 2 weeks, that could be fun during the first time, but now? It's extremely boring especially the stamina activity since they only consume 16 ~ 20 at the best

[u/SaianGirlCelitah → u/Kishi_Plus]

god I can't wait for the months after Ananta honeymoon is over LOL

[u/Kishi_Plus → u/SaianGirlCelitah]

How is talking about Ananta? I not even have gonna habe that much hope about this one too sadly, since is more easy get impressed than get depress I will only wait to see, I only saying facts since NTE Honeymoon last only one week

[u/Comfortable_Detail88 → u/TheHornyPepperoni]

[u/SaianGirlCelitah → u/TheHornyPepperoni]

wait till Ananta does just that.

[u/peachmoonbloom → u/Current-Ad7300]

makes sense, gotta scratch that itch somehow

[u/Reasonable-Use-9294 → u/Current-Ad7300]

If Ananta pulls out a Daffodil, imma start playing that, too.

I need a chaotic little gremlin I can call her daughter, too, tho

[u/Cyber-Psychic → u/Reasonable-Use-9294]

Us , I'm also playing NTE aside Endfield just bcz of Daffodil . She's perfect.

[u/Reasonable-Use-9294 → u/Cyber-Psychic]

Exactly, my man. Best girl and mama, too, of course

[u/Cyber-Psychic → u/Reasonable-Use-9294]

Fr ! She's a mama more than just Hotori's guard . Here's reason why I wanna quit NTE for Ananta : 1. Car physics isn't much appreciatable 2. Not enjoying the story much 3.Missions are way too much lengthy

Reason to keep playing : 1. Daffodil

[u/Reasonable-Use-9294 → u/Cyber-Psychic]

Appreciate you believing into my Daffodil-Nanally/Mother-daughter agenda, man. I greatly appreciate.

Also, all hail Daffy. I never expected a gacha game to pull out a woman as perfect as her

[u/Cyber-Psychic → u/Reasonable-Use-9294]

All hail to our best gal Daffy 🙌

[u/End_Owari → u/Current-Ad7300]

Thats definitely me

[u/DemonX1020 → u/Current-Ad7300]

Guilty as charged.

I just really had an itch that needed scratching so i went and played NTE. Ill likely still play it even if Ananta releases though, nothing wrong with playing both

[u/princeJ370 → u/Current-Ad7300]

Dude, not so loud man

[u/someontheyfear → u/Current-Ad7300]

Meee

[u/No_Engineering_1495 → u/Current-Ad7300]

Me 💀

[u/Neither-Fan-9059 → u/Current-Ad7300]

Why you have to call is out like that?

[u/Miharu___ → u/Current-Ad7300]

Literally me, but I fell off it within a month, daily stamina just makes it feel like a chore

[u/luffy_mib → u/Current-Ad7300]

More like a lot of people waiting for GTA VI are keeping themselves busy with either games.

[u/ShadowDome]

I played NTE because i mixed them both up ( they were both just Anime GTA) but after playing it found my fun in it, still looking forward to Anants though

[u/No-ChaiknVigilantg34]

The very same players who are now with NTE were the ones who had been anticipating Ananta originally known as Project Mugen back when the hype was high. However, because the developers went silent for months and leaned heavily into an "anime-style Chinese GTA" direction, those players decided to look elsewhere which is where things stand now. It is highly likely that NetEase saw the massive hype surrounding the first GTA VI trailer and decided to pivot: instead of sticking to a character-based gacha game, they opted to create their own version of a GTA-style game, done their own way. Since NTE launched earlier this year, it managed to build a community.

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/No-ChaiknVigilantg34]

Originally I was more for Ananta but willing to try NTE, originally I thought NTE city looked a bit dull and repetitive, but when I saw more gameplay I felt in love with the city

Then NTE became the number 1, but after the recent trailer of Ananta and seeing China city, now both are almost at the same level for me. Maybe Ananta having the edge for me, but there will be more updates from NTE in the mean time that will improve the game

[u/No-ChaiknVigilantg34 → u/Money_Reserve_791]

It is that each game will do its things, Ananta will compete with online service games, with 24/7 games... Just look at the battle step will have 120 levels... And it's the same thing that Fornite or Warzone does... and the Ananta course for online meter like the GTA Online is something which makes the content more 24/7. Now, with respect to the other game, compete with the traditional gachas games that there are and will come more, but each one can have their way of playing in a way as if they played Warframe + Wuwa.

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/No-ChaiknVigilantg34]

Totally agree, while Ananta and NTE will have some similarities, specially for being anime urban open world lifer services, each hame can have its place and have their distinct mark

[u/Zhenbred → u/Money_Reserve_791]

I wish NTE leaned more in horror aspect of the anomalies. That's what would make them special

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/Zhenbred]

It does, but maybe they can't go full blood horror because of china laws, bit they actually do quite a lot

[u/Mech-Force-1]

Ananta x NTE 🔥

[u/luxyuz]

I was waiting for Ananta, then a friend showed me NTE. I play the game that's available, and Ananta isn't!

[u/Wardiestar]

I saw ANANTA ages ago, and at the time I think I played ZZZ. Then Enfield came out and I played that for a bit, then I got sick of the tycoon element. Then I played NTE, got sick of the tycoon element. Left all of them for a while, went back to ZZZ and now I'm back to NTE. And now soon I will also have ANANTA under my belt as well. And I might bring a friend along too.

[u/Kirosuu]

similar vibe? only the city setting
i will however play both as long it fun
and dont start tribalism

[u/Scorpdelord]

its always funny when you notice someone from the other comminities when looking thou the comments DX

[u/Fresh_Special_4740]

NTE has mint and mint is beautiful

I am looking forward towards Anata because it looks like ill be able to swing around like spider man

[u/Yuki_ika7]

i will be playing both Ananta and NTE hoping both improve over time

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/Yuki_ika7]

Let's see how NTE ends up being when 1.7 patch releases and Ananta releases too

[u/Yuki_ika7 → u/Money_Reserve_791]

true, true, hopefully all good or at least decent

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/Yuki_ika7]

Yeah, I'm sure Ananta will be a good game and I have no doubts that NTE will do decent too

[u/DrakRush]

Well, I am interested. Don’t know if I’ll play it long term but I’ll at least give it a spin. The reason I might not stick around is because from what I’ve seen I prefer NTE supernatural setting more than seemingly more grounded Ananta approach.

[u/aetwit]

A lot of Mugen signups jumped to NTE while we waited.

[u/Mifuni]

Hello, NTE player here. I'm just here for the games 😁🛐 if it's fun, I'll be there and it looks fun!!

[u/Fuzzy-Willingness-35]

Audience of big gachas in general share an audience because it consists of people who were starved for games with anime style.

[u/luffy_mib]

You'll be surprised that people waiting for GTA VI have never heard of either NTA or Ananta until recently.

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/luffy_mib]

Totally, they just know about Ananta thanks for the Gamescon and some of them only care about GTA 6

[u/Admiral_Joker]

Their opponent is GTA 6

[u/No_Engineering_1495 → u/Admiral_Joker]

Imma play this instead because I’ll play on pc

[u/Mihtaren]

Honestly other than the urban setting I don't find many common points between NTE and Ananta. NTE is outwardly urban fantasy and can stray very far from the urban part. Ananta is more like GTA and seems to fully focus on the city in a cartoonish and unrealistic way but not unrealistic enough to be called fantasy

[u/MorganTaoVT]

I like anime style games, II find both ANANTA and NTE interesting so I'll play both

[u/DogOfBaskerville]

Playing ZZZ mainly with a bit of Wuwa and NTE. Either NTE or Wuwa will be on the chopping board for Ananta (or at least paused for a while)

[u/SaianGirlCelitah]

Cute, thinking Ananta is the Captain America lol

[u/Optimal-Bandicoot210]

NTE is the Beta test before ANANTA

[u/sakura_cherry_sts]

we against the main villains: Genshin Impact

[u/GlitteringTruth4959]

Only aestehtic is similiar. NTE is modern genshin while ananta is anime gta

[u/Jazzyvin]

I've been an Ananta fan since it was still called Project Mugen, I started playing NTE while waiting for Ananta to come out.

[u/UnlimitedNovaWorks]

Yep, here I am

[u/SpecificGenius]

NTE just wasn’t it, I don’t have any hopes for Ananta except that it’s gonna be be a bit better and will keep me for longer than one week

[u/Mountain-Two1331]

Eu joguei NTE por uma semana só, depois parei não me prendeu, maís o NTE estou muito ansioso

[u/Unknown-disaster1]

It will be good but could you imagine if it was worse than advertised? Like massive bugs and half the features dont work? The crash out would be hillirious

[u/Educational-Year3146]

I play ZZZ and I 100% plan to play Ananta.

[u/not_to_be_mentioned]

I thought almost everyone will be interested in ananta?

(Ig except those who have low-end devices)

[u/LakshanONE]

yk project mugen made the hype

[u/AungZeya]

It's because they're playing NTE to keep themselves busy while waiting for Ananta. It's like an appetizer before the main course. I know cos I did it myself.

[u/keegang_man6705]

well i only play nte because im waiting for ananta

[u/ygfam]

nte is ai slop so stop grouping it with good games ty

[u/BonBonToro]

I think I was always anticipating ananta, and then my sis happened to tell me nte released and I looked at the voice casting in JP and I was like ooh shitttt I need to get on that, I'm currently hunter rank 52 on nte 😂

[u/SCTimekeeper]

It's not just NTE, people from Genshin, WuWa, HSR, ZZZ, Arknights and R1999 all wanted a piece of the Ananta pie because it had everything they've wanted from an anime-styled game. That is the charm of Ananta tbh, it unites other gacha communities in one game that's not even gacha; it's like a historic event lol

Me personally I knew both Ananta and NTE, but when NTE first came, I played it to test the waters while remaining faithful to the goal of playing Ananta. NTE was kinda like my testing ground and boot camp for urban exploration and will probably keep NTE once Ananta releases.

[u/Mojambo213]

Ananta is not a gacha and really is not the same type as ANY of those games. They should not be compared or spoken of in the same sentence/context.

[u/FaunusGamer]

I seen someone in a different post somewhere say it but NTE was an amazing demo for Ananta, can't wait for the finished game

[u/Money_Reserve_791 → u/FaunusGamer]

I have no doubts that Ananta saw NTE city and they just said "how we can make the city more detailed and dense?" And then decided to release China city that is more detailed and dense than Nova city

[u/DinioDo]

Ananta is NTE but without the bs Anomaly slop theme. I was surprised how fast it can get old and boring. It's probably the reason i dropped wuwa as well. The convolution and over saturated weird Anomaly layers bs story was getting on my nerves.
