why did you stop playing girls frontline 2?

Never started

>>716021231 (OP)
I didn't, just finished an artifact run.

Gameplay's boring as fuck. There's only so many times I can do the same huge amount of dailies over and over. Same as there's only so many times I can fap to the same feet before getting bored.

>>716021231 (OP)
boobs too small

>>716021231 (OP)
Story sucked. Gunsmoke sucked.

>>716021347
>huge amount of dailies
GFL2 dailies take like 5 minutes tops. Are you sure you're talking about the right game?

>>716021702
I don't like doing homework. And it's more than five minutes.
Guild dailies, Resetting the 20 hour work things, doing the pvp battles, spending all stamina, doing the repeatable boss fights and the resource dailies. Over and over again. It's far more than 5 minutes, and it's also just fucking homework. If I wanted to do homework I'd go back to school.

>>716021231 (OP)
i didnt though

>>716021843
>repeatable boss fights
those are sweepable bwo....

>>716021231 (OP)
i do but i play primarily to enjoy the story at my own pace if possible. i really liked aphelion

>>716021231 (OP)
Honse gambling

>>716021231 (OP)
i only play this biweekly

>>716021231 (OP)
My room was the only reason I played it. Then Umamusume came out and I found out that you can actually enjoy playing gacha games

i haven't
i do wish they'd make shit harder though, artifact recovery's pretty fun playing around with their rougelike stuff but it gets too easy too fast
same with the extraction thing, it should have been more stealth focused and buffed handguns just for this mode

>>716021843
so you don't play gacha then, good to know

>>716021843
>Guild dailies
Daily guild battle takes like three minutes.
>Resetting the 20 hour work things
10 seconds
>doing the pvp battles
30 seconds. You don’t need to do all three.
>spending all stamina
10 seconds.
>doing the repeatable boss fights
10 seconds. I assume you’re intelligent enough to know you can sweep that.
>and the resource dailies.
What are you spending your stamina on if not this?
Anon, if I didn’t know better, I’d assume you’re being willfully disingenuous

>>716023162
Aphelion was peak. Should be the golden standard the writers try to achieve. Though this Peri event was pretty decent too even if it kinda drags a little

>>716026329
it trip and fell on part 2 by swapping to Peri's POV too early. I guess they wanted to show how cool Springfield is by having her negotiation be the climax.

>>716021231 (OP)
>why did you stop playing girls frontline 2?
too much brainless and time consuming autobattles like the daily clan thing. i wont stick with a gaas that gives me "chores" i dont enjoy

>>716026598
So like every other gacha?

>>716026548
the event is supposed to be split between springfield and peri after all. i personally found it really interesting how they managed to make them both feel like the stars of the show. in aphelion they release mechty in the second part and make it sound like it’ll be all about her, but it was still all about klukai. but in this event both girls held the spotlight an equal amount of time.

>>716021843
>he manually does every single daily/weekly
>he doesn't use the auto feature like they're suppose to

Bro, the game can't fix your retardation, I'm sorry.

>>716021280
fpbp, same

i have gacha fatigue

>>716021231 (OP)
The cancer gunsmoke
And they still haven't removed it after 1 year
Make me question the reality of it flopping in CN has anything to do with the NTR drama and not just the director being retarded

>>716021231 (OP)
i only play this every 2 weeks when the new expansion drill comes out
fuck gunsmoke

>>716021280
same

I stopped playing when Vector released:

>Not enough interesting content
Once you hit max level and clear the boss fights and horde mode, there's not much to do that's actually interesting besides the hardest expansion drills every other week. Some of the side modes could be fun diversions for a little bit, at least until they started reusing them for new events. I liked the story, but the actual gameplay of it was brainless.

If the actual gameplay was more interesting, I would have been more willing to put up with my other frustrations with the game and the general tedium, but it felt like there was not much of a point in doing that.

>Gunsmoke Frontline
This takes way too long and is way too annoying. I actually think the gameplay in this mode works - the score attack nature of it rewards players for strategizing, making good loadouts, and using your team the best you can no matter what state your account is in (whale or new player). However, asking players to run the same boss fight twice a day every day for a week is too tedious and time consuming. I mostly stopped caring after the first few seasons, but even playing it on auto took ~15 minutes a day once Klukai came out.

>Attachment Farming
I got annoyed with my inventory continuing to fill up with attachments and hitting the limit, and did not want to deal with optimizing and calibrating everyone's attachments.

>Dailies
Like the game's defenders in this thread have said, these were really not so bad to run every day, and if circumstances were different I wouldn't mind dealing with these. However, with so little content in the game that I actually cared about, it still began to feel like the juice was not worth the squeeze.

>>716029221 (moved to separate post b/c character limit)
I think Gunsmoke would work much better if it just took the score of your highest day during the week. That way, dedicated players could still run it every day to practice the fight as much as possible and try and get the day with the best modifiers, while other players could just pick one or two days to tryhard and manually run the fights, but do it according to their own schedule.

>>716021231 (OP)
But I still am.

I just wish they'd stop narrating the story with these events. Aphelion was peak but we went from a "bounty hunter" struggling to keep ends meet to playing paintball and doing Mad Max races. I'd like to see more of the OG crew story.

>>716021843
>doing the repeatable boss fights

>>716030051
oh nononono

>>716021231 (OP)
I'm still playing. it's a fun "side gacha" because the dailies are fast and simple. My only problem is that they're incredibly stingy with the tix.

>>716030051
Shikikan will never betray their canon wife of 6 for the Zucchero or 404 harlots

>>716021231 (OP)
does it have yuri?

Soooo story when? Please don’t say the game is relying on event like FGO?

>>716021231 (OP)
>the story kinda sucks
>the ""fan services"" suck
>despite having "patented leggings technology", do nothing about it (refer to point above)
>my raifu isn't in it

I'm just playing it to unlock the event skins

good afternoon saar!

>>716021843
GFL2 has the shortest dailies of ANY gatcha I've ever played.

It's literally just a few minutes. The only battle you have to do is the Combat Exercise.

>did not want to deal with optimizing and calibrating everyone's attachments.
Bro, your formation?

I still play it, but i have a hard time logging on sometimes

because it got boring
it rushed to shove the old cast down our throats too quickly
why yes i DID start with GFL2

I'm drawn to characters. I like the cast they started with but I'll probably only pick up again once I get the UMP twins.

>>716021231 (OP)
I want to like GF2 but I guess Hoyo games ruined gachas for me (in terms of what to expect from a gacha in production quality)
I guess my biggest gripes with GF2 right now are:
>no voice acting in all the events, just the "important" ones
>I always notice like half a dozen typos on the current event's script
>the story so far is nowhere near as engaging as in GF1 (although I've heard rumors that the game recently went through a "re-write hell" and the current events available in China are actually "good" in terms of story)
The only things I personally like about GF2 over Hoyo games would be that I feel that the other game modes and event mini-games are nowhere near as cancerous or tedious as in Hoyo games, and that I really like the concept of "X-COM but with anime girls" and there's nothing like that on the market afaik

>>716021231 (OP)
I will come back once they bring my wife RPK-16 back
>but anon
shut up, if they found an excuse for UMP40 they can come up with an excuse for her

>>716031723
that's what I think
also the timeline is kinda wack in this game. I know they skipped a lot of events in global compared to CN but when did SKK met SPAS and Springfield before this event?

>>716021231 (OP)
I didn't, but a lot of the content is extremely boring and it takes too much time to complete. I don't do Gunsmoke so I mostly dickroll and missing some rewards isn't a big deal.

>>716032964
>I don't do Gunsmoke so I mostly dickroll and missing some rewards isn't a big deal.
This, I don't know what the fuck they were thinking when they made Gunsmoke but that shit isn't fun, to the point that I would rather just miss the rewards than play that shit

>>716032964
>>716033272
for me it was autoing that, no idea who would manual every time it comes up

>>716021338

Colphne culo.

>>716024282
dropped when i saw i had to roll 5 SSR support cards (gear) or else i was bricked

>>716021347
this but unironically, dumbsmoke is going to make me quit
+ the story sucks shit right now, 416 event made me even give up on the rest of 1's story

There is something seriously wrong with gacha players. They expect all of these games to follow a template. And when you ask them why they're following the template they look at you in shock. It's like they've forgotten that real video games exist. There is nothing stopping a game from charging money to roll on characters and also doing LITERALLY ANYTHING ELSE alongside that. You don't need to do the same mindless task every day like without any thought. Why would you even want to do that, are you fucking psychotic? And even if you do have "dailies" you can at least put some fucking effort into adding unique challenges per day. The games section of a newspaper have more competently thought out "dailies" than your game. That's how absolutely pathetic gacha games are. You're losing to a fucking newspaper in game design.

>>716021231 (OP)
But I'm still playing
No one has stopped playing it yet, it's only been out for 6 months

>>716037995
That's literally what I'm saying. Gacha PLAYERS are retarded. I don't understand where this mentality comes from where they want the game reduced down to being absolute braindead garbage.

Based retard

it's dogshit sadly
i wanted to like it but it's simply not good

>>716021231 (OP)
It's not as good as Reverse Collapse.

>>716039039
Unfair comparison since that's a real game to be honest

>>716038106
>And even if you do have "dailies" you can at least put some fucking effort into adding unique challenges per day.
oh so you just have no fucking clue what the game is or you're braindead and can't remember what comes out between the spittling of your drooling retard mouth

>>716039178
Gachas don't deserve exceptions.

>>716037995
it's hard to press sweep for some of these things, what if i want to dump everything into gold or character exp?

is it just me or the rifles in this game are oversized?

>>716039954
Happens to the older rifles since they have to account for you equipping it on a doll with a modern rifle, or vice versa, so they have to be a similar size.
It kind of sucks, I'm hoping a future update will fix it, all they'd need to do is tweak the animations a bit.
I'd be pissed if they add Lee-Enfield and her rifle got the same treatment

>>716021231 (OP)
Never started. They massacred what made GF1 good (free girls). I am also not retarded, so I could see that all the "x-com but anime!" bullshit was a pile of vile lies.

extreme PVAs can't come soon enough

>>716021231 (OP)
It is pretty insane how I would probably like this game a lot if it wasn't gacha. Everything about it from the youtube gameplay videos I saw is something I would like but the game is instantly unplayable for me if it is gacha.

>>716040869
Consider Reverse Collapse >>716039178

>>716041454
A gacha what anon?
A
Gacha
What?

>>716021231 (OP)
I never got far, dropped it after the tutorial
genshit like rolls
the terminator robots having stupid names instead of using the gun as the name
story being dogshit (it'll get better but it's not worth the effort)
personal disagreement with how 1's story turned out
turn-based slop (1 's real time combat is superior even if it is a shitty grid-based rts)
xcom like gameplay but with rpg stats that pre-determine most of the outcomes, making tactics utterly useless
generally not being fun at all (like any other game that expects you to play it daily, it's a chore)
