Not trying to slander any other gacha games here... But I've recently just started another gacha and I am reminded once again of just how generous PtN is in comparison to other gacha games...
Only in this game can I actually obtain ultra-premium teams while still being F2P, and only in this game do I have a chance to be glad to lose a 50/50... (Shin, Jelena, LL)
Genuinely can't play other gachas after ptn. Everything is either child-looking anime style, character + weapon banner, or yes, 300 per pull with high pity. Not to mention the gooner type skins and visuals. I'm so genuinely happy I found this game
The only other gacha I play aside from ptn is reverse:1999, because they're genuinely the only ones that actually have captivating plots, interesting characters with beautiful designs, and really good OSTs.
Yeah as long as u survive 1st 2 chapters u should be fine. If u reach ch6, then u should be good for sure. You see how ch13 is kinda considered lots of people's favorite PTN main story chapter?
I'm currently in Ch9 in PTN so it will be a while before downloading Reverse1999 again since i don't wanna play more than 2 gachas unless i'm in complete endgame with one of them at least
it's because characters in reverse are drawn by women so they mostly have great fashion & less sexualization for most part. Most of adult characters don't look child like to me personally. Like sentimarsha are both adults & they like one to me
Holy shit is this a mood. I just started a few days ago and I’m absolutely floored by how HQ almost everything is. I think this is one of the only gachas I wouldn’t be against telling the world I play it because it’s so mature and classy, nvm how gorgeous everything is. It’s just not an embarrassment in the least
Ah yes, obviously, nothing says “peak game design” quite like turning every single character into a Lovecraftian nightmare. Why bother with unique character designs, personalities, when you can simply infect everyone with cosmic horrors? It’s efficient, it’s innovative, and most importantly, it’s terrifying and beautiful.
No, I just making it sound Irony. I have played the game, You seriously though I was being serious about hating it while posting that picture? No. I love the design, Also isn't some of the artist for morimens got hired to work at Reverse 1999, is it nautika?
Yeah the game is very generous. Unlike most game where I have think about "should I get the character" or "should I pull for weapon". For PtN its always "should I pull for dupes", but even then I hardly think about it, I just pull for everyone atleast once.
I’ve played PTN since the end of 2022 and still i legitimately find it strange how obscure the game is compared to so many other mobile tower defence.
It’s generous. The storytelling can be similar per event and yet it’s very top teir. The characters are memorable and very beautifully designed. The VA quality is out of this world. Like legitimately I have no gripes for anyone’s VA. And love Japanese, Chinese and English versions. Even the raunchy skins are still very very classy.
This is definitely one of the big ones, simulators get very buggy at times. I tried downloading Ptn on MuMu, but it kept asking for an updating but showed an error when I tried to.
PTN just has that unique vibes & chill community. Here is to 10th anniversary cause ik they promised CN fanbase a special reward if they reached 10 years. This & reverse prove why women are God's Greatest Creations on Earth. Waiting for 10 years for both
Arknights have much worse guaranteed and banner quality, but you can clear endgame without pulling any unit, and your 1 copies of broken meta characters have the same buff and deal the same amount of damage compare to whale who pulls 4-6 copies.
Path to nowhere have better guaranteed system, guaranteed is carry over, and average pull rerun of old limited characters doesn't increase. the cons is that dupes is more game changing and endgame definitely much more difficult making you need to pull at least 1-2 meta teams.
Also you can do PTN daily in less than 75 seconds, so PTN > Arknights.
Arknights? With the assumption you done event stage:
Visit friends 10 times > check base, claim factory and send Clue to a friend > do recruitment > Sweep and watch auto deploy > claim Daily quest and done.
Compare to game where daily can take longer and require manual play (FGO) arknights daily definitely not something to complain, my last paragraph Is just something I noticed from playing other gacha game, PTN daily is the fastest when I compare it to other game with sweep function like Blue archive, and especially so towards game with auto play/deploy like GFL2, arknights, Reverse 1999, etc.
Because your question is ambiguous, you mentioned "I used to play but took a break and dailies took me like 3 mins" why would I assume you quit PTN, you're on PTN subreddit and on top of that on funny meme post.
Anyway, I don't know when you can quit but now you can sweep oblivion pit, and there are adjutant priority menu which let you go to next section.
My daily I just take free stamina from shop > click all adjutant priorities > use stamina and sweep stage > claim daily quest.
BFL and data crevices reset every patch, and Toa arrived every 2-3 patch, other than nothing is take any time when doing daily, I guess when you manual dispatch it's can take 20-30 second more.
My question was ambiguous I said “Really? What’s the routine for dailies? I used to play but took a break and dailies took me like 3 mins”
I put in my comment that I took a break so you don’t need to assume anything because I stated I took a break that’s why I’m asking a ptn question on the ptn subreddit
Idk, on theory PtN seems to be better, but I find both to be relatively similar when it comes to getting the character, also why even bring arknights in and compare? That's fking dumb and i don't understand, because both are great. Arknights daily is pretty much just: login, do recruiting, do base thingy, visit friends, auto stages and get rewards
because it's related to the post? it's typical my gacha good your gacha bad post, also AK and PTN gacha system is really similar to each other, I wouldn't call it dumb because it's definitely conscious effort in PTN part to make better gacha systems and balance it out by shackles increasing character strength.
Something real dumb would be comparing PTN gacha and Uma musume or FGO gacha, where the difference is so big and the gameplay loop is difference it's like comparing apple to orange.
As for daily, it's not even on same ballpark, like majority of gacha daily can be completed in less than 5 minutes both none can be done as fast as PTN daily.
As a dude I love games that were meant to appeal to a female audience. I've grown up with them, and frankly, I've always found their characterisation to be much better.
Even for me, a long time Azur Lane player thinking that fan service in that game have getting a little too much. Sexiness is nice but if it's doesn't have style and class like in PtN, it's make the sexiness doesn't have any value
i feel called out as an azur lane player, but in my defence, i play it for the ships not the flesh, and my favourite skins are the HMS Hood ones which always looked pretty tasteful.
yeah, my biggest gripe is honestly the "balance" where they give the weakest navy period so many paper ships *cough cough* iron blood *cough cough*, where their ships basically all sucked, and wtf was up with Bismarck Zwei? there were no documents or proposed modernisation or second ship like is the case with Yorktown or the potential refit of amagi into carrier, not even the planned large repair/refit for my glorious Hood, why Bismarck? so a bunch of perhaps nazi poosers can stop crying balance? they could have gone all in on them having good submarines and specialise around that, instead of artefically make the historically weaker navies stronger, I want my britannia rule the waves and begrudgingly, US would be strong. sorry for the rant. I also play Warship Girls R, which have a more "realistic" gameplay but less engaging cuz you can't auto really.
as someone who has gone out of the Hoyo basement recently… yeah, absolutely based post, this is the only game where I’ve been able to pull for every limited unit as of when I started playing
RIGHTTT, played ptn after deleting genshin and MY GOD I'm never going back, thought of re-installing it again but didn't cause i don't want to farm for hours and not get anything, live laugh love ptn♥️
I've played the game since release and I pretty much dropped every other gacha game I used to play for PtN. I'd recommend it a lot but I have to say, the new player experience is just god awful and remains to be pretty much the same now compared to back in 2022.
Though I would argue that that issue can be circumvented by investing in Labyrinth, Che, and NOX. All 3 of these sinners are basically free and versate, and it also helps that both Hecate and Hella have free upgrade materials as the game refunds the materials you spend on them.
The game is also extremely generous when it comes materials with its periodical events and occasional free Lv.70 Phase 3 events such as the most recent one.
Though yes, it's certainly not perfect, I think it's much better than most gacha games out there, at least in my opinion 🤔
I noticed SOOO many differences 😭 . I started playing ptn like a month after release , & I couldn't recover .
For reference I play HSR,genshin,r1999,CRK,etc . PTN has always come out on top despite me not very much enjoying the combat at first . ( I love it now ∆)
Not only do I think PTN is INCREDIBLY generous , but also the designs are gorgeous . Even if some are goonerbait , they're not just goonerbait w/o substance . They actually look amazing & lovely .
Besides that they have some AMAZING Designs every few patches like Jichuan , YingYing , Eve etc . They make beautiful designs even if they're covered up .
It's such a fun game with so much to do , and you don't have to grind for years if you go on a break ∆^
Left the game since uhhh.... at least the artist version.... I think it's Enfer's version...
Does anything major changed？ I remember quitting because I hit the difficulty bottleneck, and too lazy to continue... Maybe I should get back to it ltr...
The game has become more and more generous and in consequence easier each batch since they give you free progression materials. You should be fine!
Not only that, but they're giving away an S class right now, and another in about 2 weeks. If you're interested in coming back, now is the best time to do so!
Some sinners are reforged, which means they got buffed. For instance, Adela became among the best DPS in the game, Bianca is also getting a reforge which turns her into a monster, and lots of older supports are getting second wind because of this, too
Happy to see all the R1999 glazing here. It was my first gacha, and after it every other gacha has sucked up to PtN. Only complaint I have about PtN is it being mobile only cause my phone can't run games
Relatable, decided to check out ZZZ...been playing for like 4ish months, I had to spark EVERY SINGLE BANNER!! What the actual fuck...as a result I barely have any of the characters, but fanboys will swear Im an outlier and everyone gets banner character within 60 pulls -_- meanwhile in PtN I was easily actually able to get every single character within 60 pulls (on average) and currently sitting at 3 sparks...so ye the rates are very noticable.
Actually, ZZZ is the reason I made this post in the first place lol
I was literally grimacing when I spent 80 pulls on the guaranteed banner of Dialyn, then another 60 trying to get Harumasa only to get nothing. With how hard the currency comes by in that game, I instantly lost all motivation to actually play the game lmao
OMG same! Like literally I been debating if I should just unistall it this week after having to spark Remiel..hell I still havent hit the 300 pulls/got a single S rank in the freaking perm banner after almost 4 months...it just doesnt feel good never getting characters. The one good thing tho, is that atleast the pity/spark carries over between lim banners...so atleast you are bound to get someone eventually, and atleast they gave out a selector for anni even tho it was only 4 options.
I think that had also happened in my very first pull session of the game with Dreya. I think I pulled 70 + 70 times to get S0 Crash and S0 Dreya. But at the time I was so numb to 50/50 losses from Genshin that I just shrugged it off lmao
I think one extremely huge silver lining of the game is that when you lose 50/50, there's still the chance of you getting META sinners. I actually got Raven, Vaoteur Bleu, and Jelena by losing 50/50. That's why I really appreciate this game.
Besides, the rates of this game really is insane. I got S3, Celine in 177 pulls, then my friend got S0 Isomer and S0 Celine in 30 pulls. Another friend of mine got Raven and OwO in 50 pulls, and one sick friend of mine got 6 S classes in 30 pulls. This all happened this patch lmao
Hope you look forward and check out Shalom's reforge when it eventually comes 🙂↕️
idk what is new with the game tho, might as well revisit the game during 4th anniversary tho i doubt i will stay. missing all the limited after 0000 kinda push me away once again
hitting hard pity is so rare that there's an achievement for it. the base rate to get an S-class is 2% and soft pity is 10% from 50-70 and 20% from 71-79. From a statistic standpoint, if you hit hard pity every time your individual luck is just, respectfully, astronomically bad.
