I've been playing it non-stop since the release. I love the gameplay, the story, the atmosphere and cozyness. It's an amazing game... with disgusting gacha mechanics. And I don't mean that the gacha itself is disgusting, but the way it is implemented. No pity carrying over between limited banners, time limited crystals, very slow acqusition of crystals... What I'm trying to say is: have as much fun as possible collecting and crafting the ingame items and stay away from gacha or at least don't get your hopes up in getting many limited banner items without throwing lots of money at your screen.
I was SO waiting for you to review this! Main Story done for now, easily 100+ hours in, I'm kind of a fan c: From playing Love Nikki back in 2017, the series has come a long way
Hahaha love you! I’m so glad you are so addicted to Nikkie! It is the dream open world Atelier game we needed mix with Mario and Zelda 🤣❤️ Love the video 🥰
was just speaking to a friend over the weekend about this game, you were the first person that came to mind for this as well. glad you are enjoying. it will be in my backlog. im also playing core keeper lol
We have the same mindset on spending in gacha games. Although my bar is a little bit lower because with regional pricing and store discounts most games I buy are less than $60. It's absolutely insanse how players can buy daily packs and they don't think there is anything wrong at all, even if they can afford it. It's just one game!
Urgh! I’m soooo jealous!!! I only have Xbox and Switch! This is totally my kind of game and you made me so want it that much more haha Love your channel ❤️
You make some of the best video game reviews out there. Not my type of game because I can't deal with all the plings and plongs but I appreciate learning about it from this video. Keep it up!
I've been thinking of trying it. I like games that let me customize the look of my character and I love having a photo mode, so those both interest me. The game also looks very nice, so it could be a fun time. Since it's free to play, I'll give it a try soon, but I'm not spending any money on it if I can help it, unless there's something I really think will add to the game. I did the same with the card game Hearthstone. I played it for years and only bought the DLCs and a small amount of card packs. Other than that, I just grinded to get the cards I wanted. I played it daily to get the gold and get card packs that way. It was incredibly slow and I didn't get all the cards I wanted and other people often beat me, but I still had a lot of fun.
Any time I come across an unashamedly feminine game with any depth whatsoever, I get really excited. Far too many games aimed at girls/women are really shallow. There are definitely exceptions, of course!! But not enough of them. Here's hoping it will come over to the Switch successor!
OK fishing.. you sold game to me 🙂 Platforming and collecting specials sounds good! Ahaa.. it was free to play like Genshin.. and Gacha warning.. OK good to know. I remember this game mentioned a while ago when Mystic was watching Playstation new coming games, but it seems that I have forgotten it then.. maybe gacha connection was not so clear when game was the first time presented. Thank You for more details!
I love this game so much right now! I knew you were going to enjoy it! It is a girly girl game done right! I feel like some really girly games are dumbed down. This was a breath of fresh air for me! I will admit that I am a pretty casual gamer though.
Feels bad because I know I will like this game a lot, but the completionist side of me will want the gacha stuff as well. I have spent an unhealthy amount of money in gachas in the past, on games I thought I would never spend a dime, so I know it is bound to happen again. It's an unfortunate pass from me.
Thanks for review! I always like your optimism and trust you since you are one of few who liked Forspoken and I think it was fantastic. So I kinda like these low stakes open world games like... hogwarts legacy maybe? Would you think this is comparable at all?
Think your review may have finally convinced me to try the game. I've been debating about giving it a go, but I usually avoid FTP and gacha-based software at all costs (I spent eight years working on mobile games, absolutely hate the damned things now). What's your verdict on that PlayStation Portal you're using? Curious to hear what you think of it, too.
Ill try it but i feel like im not the target demographic lol. Its very cutsy and there is not much fight, but im happy for the ppl who find the game enjoyable 😁
An executive producer of the game is the previous Breath of the Wild director, so that might be a reason for the 'shrine' whimstar stuff and the open-worldness. As for money, I have only bought the direct purchase. $6 so far. Cause I have a rule for myself to try and only spend overall how much a game could cost. Would this have been 60 or 70$?
@@Memovids32 Ive got a lot of discipline when it comes to f2p. Ill stop playing well before I overspend on anything. This is the only f2p game Im even touching right now.
Runs bad on my S23 Ultra, crashing constantly, but runs good on my pc. I gave it a go when the game launched, but couldn't get into it, guess this one's not for me. Plus I don't need another gacha game to add to my list right now, too time consuming.
This game looks very good, but I'll have to pass on it because its an Online free to play Gacha game. I've been burnt one too many times on these types of games after putting a lot of money in them, i.e., game dev shuts the game down due to lack of whales. :(

I’ve been playing as a F2P player and totally loving it! You just have to go into it with the mindset of not being fooled by the gacha mechanics.
I was waiting for your review on this one because the first day I played it, I thought of you. I knew you would love it.
You knew! 😁 And yes I love it! ✌️
I was SO waiting for you to review this!

Been addicted to it for the last week as well! Also thought it was similar to Atelier with the crafting. Glad you’re enjoying it!!!

Merry Christmas my idol… loving your Plushie😊
Infinity Nikki and Blue Reflection are the closest thing we have to Sailor Moon these days.
We have the same mindset on spending in gacha games. Although my bar is a little bit lower because with regional pricing and store discounts most games I buy are less than $60. It's absolutely insanse how players can buy daily packs and they don't think there is anything wrong at all, even if they can afford it. It's just one game!
Yay! I’m so glad you are also enjoying infinity Nikki, I’ve been so addicted to this game since it came out.
I am a middle-aged straight guy....and I am obsessed with this game.
I am obsessed!!! This and genshin have taken over my life
I absolutely adore this game!! Been playing every day since release, it's consuming my life because all I wanna do after work is get on it xD
Urgh! I’m soooo jealous!!! I only have Xbox and Switch! This is totally my kind of game and you made me so want it that much more haha Love your channel ❤️
oh my gosh YES!! I’m obsessed with this game!!!!! Totally brushed it off when I first heard about it.
The game is such a surprise. It's so good. I'm working on the plat now.
How do you plan to make that 1000 spins on the slot machine trophy? That's gonna be tough!
im so happy you're playing this too!!!! I'm just as obsessed with this game too. I caught up with all of the main quests and I need patch 1.2 now lol
This channel is addictive.
I'm playing in 4k on PC and holy molly, it's beautiful
Ahhh nice!! 😍
Barbie meet's Darksouls 😁😁😁😁
You make some of the best video game reviews out there. Not my type of game because I can't deal with all the plings and plongs but I appreciate learning about it from this video. Keep it up!
I KNEW this game would be up your alley 🤣
Former zelda breath of wild director kentaro worked on it so it makes sense for the similiarities. Loving it!
Been playing since day one and I love it on PS5. I also play on steam deck when I’m away from my ps5. It’s addicting and beautiful.
Got an ad for the game while watching this vid lol 😂
The town looks absolutely stunning, we need more of this in other games!
I can confirm. I put it on my homebrew Switch and it exploded 💥
Really enjoying it so far and I've been running it on a laptop that's almost 12 years old and it seems to be doing alright at this stage.
The UI is so much like Genshin. Even the artful for the flowers and fruits you have to collect. Same goes for the map. :)

Wish you did more reviews on pc games, but still love to watch ur videos
I have some of the PC version gameplay at 07:38 :D

I am playing this on steam deck right now!! ❤
Who this, new youtube video
Got mine last week😊
4:35 Which is why it's not an RPG. RPGs evolved from war games, combat is the heart and soul of the genre, something this game lacks.
Im soo hooked on it! ❤
I’d even add that it’s also kind of like Pokemon too with the contests from Ruby and Sapphire
I've had the game installed but never launched it, this video convinced me!! Also i hope i won't spend too much on the gacha hhhhhhhhh
Ive been playing this, its so fun and cute!
This is my GOTY after Stellar Blade
I love this game so much right now! I knew you were going to enjoy it! It is a girly girl game done right! I feel like some really girly games are dumbed down. This was a breath of fresh air for me! I will admit that I am a pretty casual gamer though.
Genuinely curious about this one…. Hopefully its a good time

So I kinda like these low stakes open world games like... hogwarts legacy maybe? Would you think this is comparable at all?
BUT....but...lol you loved it😂
I'm first, let's enjoy some Ircha Gaming 🎮

I play on my PS Portal every single day, it's my go-to way to play. 😊😊
I am a father and already addicted to it! 🤣
Ill try it but i feel like im not the target demographic lol. Its very cutsy and there is not much fight, but im happy for the ppl who find the game enjoyable 😁
I am playing it I am already level 23 I stopped it to platinum the Fairy Tail 2 I will go back to it

When you start buying like that, it's hard to stop. That's how they catch you.

Imma guy and I was playing this game the other day lol

I love it and then gatcha system appear. I hope this game is just full game and have end in it😑

Hi cutie😊
Looks great, but I won't be playing it unless it comes to the Switch 😢
First
Sup hope your having a great day 😀

Nothing lasts forever. You can still enjoy your time with it.
