Playing Arknights in 2019 and now means having two completely different experiences. By now, threads and talkpoints are kind of taking their time being developed, in a never ending, as the cool kids say, yapping. They, them characters, do yap, in this game. If you're not willing to read, the game's main motif of interest is not for you.
Who knows what the future will hold, with gacha games being a commodity not in short supply and ending as soon as the interest wanes, but thematically we're kind of passing the baton to the new generation, thanks to events like The Rides to Lake Silberneherze but especially thanks to Lone Trail. Terra is a hellish place, but the writing does the place justice by offering different perspectives of what life means, what hope is, what different societies do with a never ending source of pain, Oripathy, which we, as a pharmaceutical company and defense contractor, do kind of offer solace from. 2024 might be an awkward moment to start playing this game, but its different events and a multitude of stories, characters and themes all intersecting and weaving their way towards the future have left a mark. Sometimes the writing's goofy, but when it hits, it hits, hard.
I have a hole School Idol Festival left; unwilling to let go, I was looking for other things to keep me busy, occupied, up at night when the sweet release of sleep from consciousness would not come, especially during hard times like the pandemic. Arknights is not a rhythm game, it's a tower defense game, awkward to play, not always clear in its intent and definitely not balanced. There are operators who are better than others and the odds are mostly stacked against newcomers.
I just hope this hole won't be left vacant, again. I wish I could be younger again and never instruct my neurons to hold information such as Texas mommy and Bagpipe lemmy, but here we are. It's my brainrot and I do, as I please, anything I want with it.
Also it's kinda fucked how Gummy, balanced and good in everything Defender operator, was replaced by Myrtle, a DP printing machine, in the beginners' case, this is a scenario where if anything is too broken, the designers have the moral obligation to break anything else to balance it out and cater content to a demographic, in this case redirecting the newcomers towards a certain frowned upon gameplay loop. Please just don't bother with the meta, there's a world of hurt there and the grind necessary to even glance the thing isn't worth it in my opinion.

one of my favourite universes with one of my favourite compositions, character designs and more- for a game that I'm particularly not fond of.
I played this game for so long, and I genuienly thing arknights's story is some of the most fun, and original to delve into- theres nothing like arknights lore out there, but i am not a fan of tower defenses, i could stick for it because of the amount of interactivity, i wish arknights was just a real game instead of a gacha- because honestly like i absoluetly would love to enter into a yapping contest about just this game
if you chill with gachas more though, it is more generous than the average game, but it is not the most generous gacha out there either. check it out, and hey, maybe you'll like it ; it's free so it doesn't hurt trying

Hab mich das erste mal getraut ein Handy-Gacha zu probieren weil ich ein Fanart mochte.
Habs son bisschen gespielt, hab son bisschen gegrindet, hatte auch echt Spaß dabei, hab son paar gute Pulls gehabt, hatte nie das Verlangen echtes Geld auszugeben und weil ich unendlich sparen müsste bis ich mir endlich einen dieser 10-Pulls holen könnte, hab ich das interesse verloren.
Fantastisches Genre was ihr da habt, guys!
Ansonsten, fun kleines Tower Defense Game. Gute Artworks. Finds unfair, dass all die besten Character Designer der Industrie nun dafür arbeiten PNGs in Kisten ziehen zu dürfen.
