I am part of the small and dedicated fanbase! You can see for sure that this is a smaller team and effort. If you're into cyberpunk storylines and quick shooter gameplay Snowbreak is really fun. Oddly, the storyline progression has been one of the key contributors for me sticking around.
I'm honestly considering playing this game casually since I fall into the "shooter fan that like anime" niche but idk since I don't hear much about this game very often
@@bgbss680 It's a really small game tbh, the devs and community reflect that. I do think it's worth trying out since it doesn't cost you anything. The time investment (once you finish the story etc) is pretty minimal unless you just wanna play more to shoot stuff, which is a plus for me. Events are spaced out too so you can focus on other games as well. Probably one of those things where if it checks enough boxes for you, cool! If not, then that's cool too and now you know!
I am from the future. Devs have listened and decided to make signature Logistics to be available. The upcoming patch after Eatchel will feature 2 5★ characters and one of them is FREE via login gifts.
@@qwinn9963 Like everything personal preference will matter a lot. I really enjoy the story and it's refreshing to see storylines that actually progress. The MC stand in is kinda cool too and isn't a complete idiot. There's enough there if you want to get into it, but again, personal preference usually determines what kind of stories do it for ya.
I think a more realistic comparison would be Honkai Impact 3rd, since this game is a completely different genre than Genshin. Also the monetization might be the same but you get a LOT more free currency than Genshin.
The gacha part left out important information. You can farm for constellations after you get your first character, and it only takes 2 weapons to reach max refinement. This is much better than genshin.
And there is only ONE rate up weapon, so if you lost the 50-50 the next one is the rate up weapon, on the contrary genshin has 2 freaking rate up weapons and before their "pity" you could roll 1000 times and still not get it, anyone remembers what happend to that guy wanting homa?
I always hear that but nothing comes even close to genshin system where you dont need special weapons or OP characters to progress contrary to like 95% of gacha games since you can just keep world tier low and do everything.
Another thing is that I don't think Snowbreak is trying to compete, or even follow Genshin's footsteps. It's more like they are following Honkai Impact's footsteps since in that game, it isn't open world, and the story are told through still models, but are voiced, which is something I hope Snowbreak can improve. Besides, there are other bigger titles already in the works to compete with Genshin like Wuthering Waves, Mugen, and the latest one known, Azur Promilia. Though Snowbreak did have an open world game mode in the Summer Event, but it is small and nothing compare to Genshin. And again, Honkai Impact also have that as well. And in some strange way, I think I am glad that the game stays within the niche but have a dedicated player base. After all, you don't see a lot of Chinese gacha games focusing more on the fan service. This is from China after all.
Yeah, that thought crossed my mind pretty hard when he started describing the disconnect from the story (presented as a 2D visual novel) to the 3D gameplay. This game is almost literally Honkai Impact 3rd
@@Addition2 just wanna ask again😅...I looked it up on playstore but didn't saw it there but when i searched it up kn google,i saw apk links of the game so that you can play it on mobile...So yeh,sorry im hesitant to ask this since it feels embarrassing but i really just want to try the game since it looked cool so yeh
You didnt go into how much "primogems" you can get and how frequent. The frequency, reliabilty, and amount gain is what makes Snowbreak have the better Genshin gacha system. In Genshin, once you get all the chests in the overworld and complete achievements, you will need to depend on events and dailies for anymore rotating primogems. You could walk around the map and get less than 100 primos after 5 hours of treasure hunting. But for Snowbreak you can do weeklies, dailies, and events quickly and they give way more pulls overall in a shorter amount of time.
cant agree more.. starting about a month on this game already and i already got 2 orange weapon and 6 orange operative (1 lyfe dupe). this game is really generous about giving a free pull.
@@kyotheman69Not exactly, it's that BA tends to give away a lot of currency but when there are no events or celebrations it becomes really slow to earn it, but definitely faster than most Nexon games.
Day 1 player here, i agree totally. I also played genshin since day 1 and they are in totally different leagues. Snowbreak respects you as a player and you get a nice amount of "gems" for the gatcha, while in genshin you have to invest a SHITON of hours exploring, completing quests and the pain in the ass of wall of irrelevant texts for an NPC you don't care. If Genshin's quests were related to characters or better yet, legendary quests were important for the character instead of a random situation that just happend to have the character, would be more enjoyable.
So one thing that is very important to note for the future reviews of these gacha games, yes genshin has become the new standard when it comes to the new era of gacha games since they showed the world that 3D massive open world gacha games can work (I mean in just 2024 and 2025 there will be a shift in market since genshin won't be the only one in this genre any more) a lot of the current popular gacha games stil follow the "Old" formula that being instance based levels, with menus for grinding, visual novel story telling and characters being more about the static image rather than the 3D model itself. Nikke is a perfect example of the old formula being modernized and updated where normally gatcha games would turn that beautiful png image of the character you pulled for into some chibi or not on par 3D model. Just wanted to throw that out there in case you play something like Azur Lane where there is no open world levels at all, and is primarly sustained by its fanservice and super friendly gacha rates there are others that are bit more modern but still follow the old formula like Arknights, Aether Gazer, PGR, Blue Archive, Reverse 1999, Snowbreak, etc before genshin all they were doing to one up each other was some new form of gameplay or better looking characters. While it's fine taking genshin as the new standard I would argue very few "New gen" gacha games have survived ever since genshin came out, Nikke is the only one that comes to mind and HSR which to no one's surprise is from Hoyoverse, so it would of naturally integrated itself into the genre.
You said it's important to note but didn't clarify why it's important to note any of this before going off on a tangent. We're all aware not every Gacha game is the same as Genshin, but it's absolutely the new standard, and there's been a clear transition from 2D to 3D with how advanced our tech is getting. Old games relying on this aren't a problem, but neither should they still be standard or made as an excuse for a new game relying on old gimmicks. But at the end of the day, to each their own.
kek the AL emote as pfp. Also, i was taken aback by how much this game and aether gazer look alike, the katya character really looks like flowfly mist shu from AG
About the logistic, they have just added a features to buy event logistic in the game. Also, more fan services are coming because they changed the rating of Snowbreak to 18+.
@@aspectofdecay007 Was thinking the same myself. I've played all kinds of gatchas and they all eventually bored me to tears or frustrated me beyond my red lines. But none of them have been cheesy fanservice crap like this. Might as well give it a try, not planning on changing my single status anytime soon anyway. lmao
Idk, I don't really like how you try to compare Snowbreak with Genshin every minute, they are not even the same genre, the only thing they have in common is that both are Chinese gachas

Buying gatcha weapons to max potential for a character is very much Genshin at its core though and the gameplay feels like that game also just different setting
Buying gacha weapons to max potential is a gacha, is not something just Genshin has lol. Every gacha has it but it can be different things, and you can't say "Oh, but is weapons so is like Genshin", no, it's weapons because is a fucking shooter. And the gameplay has nothing to do, again, is a fucking shooter, Genshin is an open-world adventure, they don't have anything in common. Sorry for cursing but it gets really tiring when you Genshin stans want to compare everything to Genshin and say that everyone is copying Genshin
Oh fuck off. Genshin is most known and successfull gacha scams that didn't die yet. They're are tons of clones and this is one of many. He did good review

@Zack-0906 oh right my bad, I forgot when I played Gangrene Impact you go around hugging everything to death. PSYCHEE explained this is "like" not a one for one copy. The weapon system is pretty much a copy paste affair along with ranking skills etc which it is. If you want a character to be at max potential you have to get the matching weapon. I play NIKKE also and there is no weapon gatcha in that game you farm random Armour only as characters use a signature weapon and skills. Every Gatcha 🤣🤦♂️🤣👍
I'm stuck in Snowbreak being a pretty much noob, blindly playing with no research until now. This video was very informative and much appreciated. Thank you! Taught me more in 30 minutes then i have learned from game in 3 months.
Logistics come back in the unlimited tab of the event shop when the characters gains a rerrun banner. You will be able to farm katya's BIS squad when she rerrun god knows when. (Not that long actually, characters rerrun pretty often in this game)
20:15 A new Operation came in and there you can obtained The Eli Squad, but I don't know if it will remain in it after the event, but since there is no time limit, it will probably remain in it. Fight,-> Operation,-> Mind Refinement (Obtain Logistics Officers in the Event) In principle, all previous event squads are included, but since I just started, I can't be sure. Also, in the Operative menu under statistics, click View Details,-> Recommended, and there you will find: - Basic and - Advanced Equipment. These are usually the best suited items for an operative. Regardless, you can search for guides, because there may be a better build, but if someone doesn't want to spend time searching for builds, this info will come in handy.
It's permanent. Seems like the community didn't like how they have to wait for a rerun either and with a growing list of characters using reruns is just not sustainable moving forward.
@@tenashi3853 I know, my point is he will compare a billion dollar open world game with a small hack and slash game, Genshin has set a near impossible standard for gacha games unfortunately. I feel bad Snowbreak it didn;t have a chance lol. Also, he's not into gameplay that much and he most probably will not like the Chara designs, since most are not sexualized and colorful enough.
Actually just started playing this last month because of Katya's asmr and the rise of it's fan service especially on their skins. Enjoyed the gameplay alot cause I'm a fan of shooter games in general. The budget is definitely low for this but I like the potential of it hopefully it reaches it. Haven't been too deep yet in the game but I see myself playing it for a long time. For future reviews there's two games I have in mind: Alchemy Stars and Path to Nowhere both games I tried back then cause of wanting another Arknights type game. PTN is the one I want to be back on especially it's been popping off in CN but don't have the time for it.
16:18 The reason why the English Dub VAs are discontinued because most of the VAs complains about the "too many fanservice" and just hating on anime and video games which is the right call to fire them and release it on Steam which gained positive reviews.
well, kinda their own fault for hiring incompetent idiots to do their VO in a foreign language in the first place. but cutting losses is better than trying to work with those morons further
UPDATE: Ok so they reintroduced the limited squads in the current even which began on may 30th, so if you have been wondering about the fomo aspect, you can be at peace
21:22 you do can get the previous limited Logistic . it happen when rerun character got release just like when Chenxing Etheral Cloud first ever rerun banner on the game, they update the unlimited store to include her logistic beside the current on-going new character banner, the only thing that wont get re-release is the 5* weapon part (assult riffle part for this case)
@@LuckyUnlucky2 that person must be stupid enough knowing how any gacha game operate and still going in . in this case, he pulled & GOT the rate-up banner character, he IS playing the rate-up banner character patch, but still miss the whole thing. and then blame the BIS gear/relic/artifact/logistic not feature anywhere after the patch bcos he dint bother to check everything (knowing he is making a review video) at the event shop featured together with the rate-up character . then blame the game. even me who play the game without looking at review or guide know when i first play this game
Snowbreak is fun for the most part. I start playing a couple of months after launch and it improved a bit. The story is getting a bit more interesting, and the fanservice is increasing, although im a man so i cant really complain. I will slightly correct you regarding when it started. While Katya Klein is noticeably a fanservice character, it started with the Yehrus storyline and a character called Tess Kotkin, a cheerful, aloof redhead with big... guns, and basically a belt functioning as a skirt. One aspect you might have missed, regarding the freebies part like the Personnel File, is the possibility to get 5 star weapons from the standard weapon banner with Reward Codes, which is the equivalent of Starglitter in Genshin Impact. I think you get 5 Reward Codes for every 4 star item you pull and 10 for every 5 star. And it costs around 480 to buy a 5 star weapon uing these, the same way it costs 24 starglitter to buy a constellation for a 4 star in Genshin Impact. As you said, it takes a while, but its a nice touch because it garantees a 5 star of your choice. One last thing regarding freebies is the fact that you can dismantle weapons and or manifestations of 5 stars to buy other 5 stars when you reach the maximum level of a weapon or Manifestation. Lets say you get R2 Stardust Memory, Lyfe's Wild Hunt signature. If you get another one, you can dismantle it for weapon materials and eventually buy a diferent 5 star weapon (when you stock up enough on the material). Same with Manifestations. When you reach the maximum count of 5, you can dismantle Manifestation items into Mori Fragments and use them to buy more manifestation poins. Although in this game, Manifestations are not nearly as strong as constellations in Genshin impact. I started playing the game because i thought the gameplay was interesting, but im getting more interested in the story now. I try to support games i enjoy so like in Genshin, i usually get the battlepass and the welkin moon equivalent. And im really curious to see how they flesh out the story, given that they presented us with clear antagonists now, in the form of the former Yggdrasil board members, with "ω" being the first major antagonist. But i think your review of the game was pretty fair and on point. One thing i will add, is that you should check out Mecha Break, a game being developed by the same company. It looks pretty good so far, and not sure if its gonna be gacha or not. At least there arent any noticeable waifus apart from a pilot in a skin tight outfit. But its good to know the success of this game allowed them to try and go a bit higher with Mecha Break.
I don't think this game is copying Genshin, most of the stuff you mentioned is in a lot of other action gacha games (some of which predate Genshin), like switching between characters during combat and the character progression system. If I had to compare it with something else, I'd say it's more like PGR with Warframe-style gameplay
26:28 It’s a third person *shooter* my man. That’s what I came here for, I strongly disagree with your claim Genshin-like minigames are needed (In fact the minigame spam is precisely one of the many reasons I ended up uninstalling Genshin) I am for one glad when it’s a more focused game. Everything else in the review was fair enough. I don’t know why you need to compare it so hard to Genshin when it isn’t even- by your own admission- an open world like it. If I wanted to play minigames I would just boot up Mario Party.
I remember when this game had mini-games on each in every event, especially summer event (that strangely released on autumn) had monopoly like mini-game. Sadly, after that summer event, they aren't doing such thing anymore, so I only hope they bring back mini-games into their games.
From what I see. Most of the minigames are from limited story events. Box pushing for Mingdeng and the monopoly from the beach. Minigame probably comes back on the next limited event. Currently, they only do main story event.
Good job on the Review, one thing you kinda missed on it is the fact that Orange Weapons you need only 2 copies to max it out, unlike most current games with 5 copies or so. Regarding the logistics both the limited operators, Chenxing and Haru, their reruns came with old events logistics to the current event shop so for example when Katya's reruns comes around you'll be able to get more copies for her logistics. Also took me 8 months of farming manifestations shards to max Fritia's to M5. Hoping to see more reviews for gacha games outside the meme ones. cheers.
the adjutant is the best character he should be playable. I don't know any other gacha game where the character you directy embody starts going out of his way to kill people as tye story progresses
21:19 Not true! It's not permanently lost! It will come back on her banner rerun... which may happen in 3~4months ;p This already happened to all other limited time event logistics, so it will happen to hers as well. That said, I agree with most of what you said. It's a good gacha that respect the player's time. 7/10.
Thank you for the review, it was in-depth and I appreciate your experience of its current state. I didn't quite understand the frequence Genshin Impact references because I don't play that game. However, i know you're using it as a general reference and standard
Having played Snowbreak since launch, here's what I can leave you all with as a full F2P player. The gacha may or may not please you, but you don't need to spend nor overindulge in each banner. The game has made it such that the default versions of Lyfe (SMG - all rounder), Fenny (Shotgun - armor breaking), Yao (Sniper - life support) are really all you need to clear every playable mode of this game except modes that need multi-functional teams. Because I put my faith in the game's design and built up these 3, I never felt the need to pull unless I wanted a new advantage. And I can proudly say I only have 3 Orange-tier Operatives, with one item for a free Orange, and a combined stock for 120, 10x rolls. The game is that generous when played diligently, and we're 10 months in. Resources were rough at first, but once they started putting up the event activities in each patch, resources suddenly became plenty with surplus. And since you aren't trying to build a full harem, you WILL be able to easily and immediately maximise the loadout to a new Operative except for the gated Manifestation rank (gacha, or time investment). The recent shift to fanservice? By all means just ignore it if you don't want it. As long as the skivvy aesthetics aren't being intrusive (and they aren't), the game's playability remains the same. You have to purposefully make the skivvy stuff shown instead. Finally, there's an important point to be made - gacha games need time investment and focus, and Snowbreak is no exception. Don't try to upgrade everything all at once - make it so that you have a solid team that can carry you up to par with the game's content difficulty, then slowly diversify out so that other members can catch up and fill the teams adequately. Because of the rough start, I'm sure some of us took at least 2-3 months to have a solidly armed team. I don't mean to detract the video itself, but would you simply accept a video essay on the game, or the many others here who have actual near-1-year experience with the game?
I'm watching this video 3 months later and as someone who has played since day 1, there have been so many QOL updates in the game lately that the video should eb remade, like the whole not being able to farm Logistics of past events. Or weapons (as both are now permanently added to one of the shops). Also, even if the game is going towards fanservice, the monetization is based on skins imo,. There has been also a new type of banner added which has a 100% rate up on the limited character and weapon. Also very important that they announced that they will mantain only 1 new character per update + reruns and if they ever release 2 new characters, they will ALWAYS give one for free (it already happened with free 5* Enya and free 5* new Fenny on anniversary). I really think that these videos with only 1 month of experience in the game have to be taken with a grain of salt as you missed several things (like other older players mentioned in the commnets). You emphatise logistics a lot but I have NEVER needed to grind perfect stats or somthing like that, you can clear everything if you know how to play and have a normal logistic squads. Also, comparing it to Genhsin seems stupid. Btw the exploration is there, but you missed the exploration events like Haru's event or the summer event where you could explore the whole map and get moire details of the story, what happened there or even go fishing (summer event). You can still read the main story but this is there. Also the game has been improving A LOT and they put effort into the players and community being comfortable with the game. They keep improving in the game mods, QOL etc. PD: I really like story btw, I think the girls have a lot of personality and the plot is interesting.
I played a couple of hours of Snowbreak today. I like it a lot. Since it's a new game I'm overwhelmed with new information being prompted to me all the time, but I'm slowly getting the hand of it. I have to say I also hate the idea of having separate gachas for character and weapons, and is one aspect that makes me consider not investing too much in the game. However I did find the story and characters insteresting enough, so I think I'll keep this as my side game, for as long as it can keep me insterested.
I am part of the small and dedicated fanbase , I really enjoy this game and the story and no other gacha can provide with the gameplay Snowbreak has atm , hopefully more people give it a try , also worth mentioning I believe the devs are busy releasing a mech battle royale called Mecha Break
To answer your question about whether or not a character's free BIS Logistic Squads can be re-obtained, here is my answer. The 5* Haru and Chenxing, both have free BIS Logistic Units in their respective events. And just so happens, during Katya's event, 5* Haru got a return banner where you can pull her and her best weapon. But that's not all, you can also get her free 4* weapon AND BIS Logistics in the same Katya event. The same goes for 5*Chenxing. I missed both character's free weapons and Logistic Squad, and I already obtained them during those newer events. And chances are, when Katya return again with her banner, you CAN get her free 4* weapon and BIS Logistic Squad.
NIKKE is been one my favorite gacha games because of the story and gameplay, I always wanted an anime style of fps until I saw Snowbreak, played the beta and got hooked on it, now booth gachas been actively playing and I’m happy with that, totally understand that is not for you, but at least you gave it a try, thanks for your honest review, hope one day you get back and play on the side at least
Seeing this gacha review and realize another person's subjecting themselves to gacha review hell like me Kindred spirits 🎉✨ Legit played and tested almost a shit ton of gacha games for the sake of reviewing it and haven't seen this one yet 👀👀👀
genshin this genshin that it’s not even the same genre of game 😭😭 snowbreak is like the only third person shooter gatcha game around, there isn’t really a comparable game to it.
Small thing the logistic for a character will come back during their rerun, as it will be added to the event shop of that time. It has happen with 2 characters already..
Having played this game since release, it's one of the more generous sorts, but only because the frequency of banners is much lower than other gacha titles. I've spent $0 dollars, and have basically everything in game, because there are weekly/daily tasks that reward the currency for pulls at a decent rate. Logistics (the Genshin artifact things) may be random, but you can pull whichever you want once you've acquired any semblance of currency gained from regular play (not cash shop). Literally the least random thing in the game. Also, event logistics are only sort of Best in Slot? The random stats you get are random for every logistics, and the bonuses don't have quite the same effect that you'd see in other games. You just need a bonus that benefits that particular character. 5-star weapons, especially those for limited banners, are mostly amazing because they provide a straight damage boost as the first part of their weapon passives. Overall though, still easily pulled at the frequency they show up. They also only require one duplicate to max out their stats, which is nice (4-star weapons require 5 copies). The real disappointment are the skins and costs associated with them. There just aren't many, and the ones that do show up are way too costly. The choice to remove the English dub was due to the fact that almost nobody used it. Since they provided us the ability to switch to the JP dub day 1, it was probably an easy choice
22:55 because it cant be praised enough, this is an awesome QoL that I would like every game to have. This is only the 2nd game I've heard of having this feature, the 1st one being Vanguard Zero.
When the video mention how the game future is saved with the fanservice route. I'm doubting it, Currently, my Friend list have about 10 players of lvl 85~100, that have not logged in for more than 20 days. (Excluding those that have not logged in more than 70 days, counting only from the fanservice path) The take home message is: Fanservice is good, but if the core gameplay loop is not fixed, players will still quit for good eitherway. What I think will happen is that, the game will still run and not EOS, but supported by small group of loyal fans. Especially the CN servers, seems to be doing great.
4:27 been playing almost a year myself. from what i've seen that's normal as a F2P person. your operatives won't get the best gear unless you're specifically spending your currency to do that. I'd recommend not doing that at all.
Snowbreak vet here, gonna yap for a bit Been playing since day one, got every single character except two that I don't want (Tess and Lyfe). Believe it or not, I'm also a very low spender and have dropped less than $50 bucks on this game. That being said, having to deal with the gacha system twice is definitely super lame, and if you don't have the signature weapon of a few 5*'s, it makes them almost useless. The logistics and neuronics grind can also be a pain, but they SHOWER you in free materials during big campaigns; which is extremely helpful. Overall, game is kino. The waifu shooter market is shockingly untapped, and snowbreak scratches that itch pretty well. Also, even as a vet, I still have no idea what's going on in the story. lmao They made it VERY difficult to stay invested in it.
The content isn't hard enough to need the weapons. The units are still very viable without the weapon and players can farm shards for characters they like. I spent nothing and got characters I want plus a weapon or 2 for those I like with free currency
This review is basically outdated. The 50/50 banner is no longer required and there's now a 100% banner for both characters and weapons. The dev made so much changes and improvement since that it might be the most player friendly gacha out there.
they did add some open world maps on some events, i think they are still finding their footing because the first was really simple and experimental but i loved the summer one. they need to add more maps like the summer one that had its own story and rewards.
I feel not eveerything needs to be compared to genshin, altho most people will. when you do this I feel it puts even more unneeded pressure or an expectations on it that it wasn't meant to reach. A game like this is supposed to a shootem up waifu collector and I think it holds well for what it's supposed to be. Yes, while it may have some aspects that are genshin in nature, it's not all the way the same as it's the norm for gacha games now. Yes, there is some holes that need to be patched like the EN voice overs wanted to leave the game because the game had more fan service in the game in which the company said you can leave is pretty based. Now we still need voice overs and I rather have JP or even other languages. Either way, I think this is a pretty fair review and the game is worth checking out. by the time the game hits it's anni let's hope for more changes and fixes to make the game more enjoyable.
lot of this is out dated now. there are 100% banners and every time a banner is up that characters equipment is up in a easy to farm event. I'm 100% f2p and have got the 4 of the best characters in the game in less than 2 months and some 5 star weapons.
I've been playing for a couple weeks so far and this game is amazing. Definitely didn't expect a game from China to provide this level of fanservice. I was complaining about losing the 50/50 to a friend and he said: "Yeah I hate getting dudes in my pulls" 😭😭
I actually played it but eventually quit. I liked the shooter aspect but I didn't like the fact that progress felt slow because I didn't have enough Presence. In Nikke, my progress is only blocked if my units are too weak or I suck (was stuck at the boss in Ch24 yesterday, beat it finally and witnessed the reason why Rapi is the poster girl of Nikke, lol). Your video made me want to pick it up again though, tho I'm not even sure if I remember my account...
been playing since day one, me and my friends. I do agree with you on practically every degree, especially the BIS logs issue. They will be adding BIS logs with out banner soon. but i cannot lie - from myself and my friends, it was a rough first patch/month. But we just ended always doing the weekly coop together, then event coop. comparing scores and strats on the weekly 2 competitive bosses and the ball kept rolling. its kinda the argument that "games are better with friends" but yes, this is a gacha where the coop shines. its not groundbreaking but never have i had to que with others for a more proper engagement in said activity as often as snowbreak. if you have friends who are willing i'd say give it a try.
Very good review. I personally enjoy this game very much and have been playing it since September, last year. That being said, I'm already not jumping up and down with excitement to perform the ridiculous amount of grinding involved in obtaining little scraps of resources. So, I can definitely see myself losing interest in the not too distant future. Spending some money would obviously improve the experience considerably but I'm simply not in the position to do so.
This is a good and fair review. I'm a fan of Snowbreak but I play little of it compared to Nikke. I am one of those people who saw the loss of English Voice Acting as a sign of EOS, but going the "add more booba" route is something I won't complain about. That said, my biggest issue with the game is how samey it feels. Even if I only play like an hour a day (if that), it's hard for me to feel engaged after awhile.
After your Honkai Impact video I think you can see the similarities between Snowbreak and HI3. As the others are saying this game is more relative to HI3 than Genshin, especially with the way the gacha works imo and the farmable character pieces, etc.
I've been playing since day 1, I think that's a fair and balanced review. I like it because the time commitment is very small and the waifus are good. And I just enjoy shooters in general, which is great for me. I like that the content runs are very long, I prefer a more relaxed pace rather than rushing myself to complete all the game modes before they disappear.
I see "Skip Story" button, i download! "You're likely see a lot of similarities with Genshin Impact" - Except the Skip story button, yes! much appreciate the video!
Skip text should be allowed in all gachas, it's just a small feature but makes so much difference, not everyone has the time or are interested in reading the story.
heyho pretty much liked this kind of review :) looking foreward to other games. As the gameplay of snowbreak isnt to my liking i think i wont touch it ever, but i wanted to point something out. The change of pace of the gameplay refering to Genshins (and other Gacha style events) isnt a too important part of the game. Maybe take that part up with a faster "burnout". Events can be annoying and tbh most play the events for the rewards if the minigames are not to their liking. A change of pace can be nice but if its really needed one can just switch to other entertaining stuff. Keep up the good work :)
This content creator is lucky. She choose Fenny SSR (as first free SSR) and got Katya. To be honest, I would like him to do a review again, this time, without Fenny SSR, and no Katya. See if he changed his mind on lots of things.
26:45 - Isn't a bit it unfair to expect a small gacha company to keep the same frequency and quality of events as Genshin Impact, the biggest gacha game on the planet? Come on, dude...
I think what he was getting at was if the gacha system is going to be pretty greedy like genshin (which is legendary for being greedy AF) then the game Better have some quality to back it up. Not that the game should be expected to have the quality of genshin but that if they were going to use a very demanding gacha system they should offer more quality. You have to give if your going to take. At least that's how I interpreted it
@@brendonbewersdorf986 What? Greedy? Dude, Genshin Impact has many faults, but greedy ain't one of them, yes, their weapon banner is shit but the character banner and the rest is decently monetized. Did you know that before Genshin Impact, gacha games didn't have a pity system? Hoyo standardized that dude, thanks to the success of Genshin Impact, even the big ones like FGO were forced to include a pity system. As for Snowbreak, they only copy Genshin's character banner, their weapon banner works like the regular one, and these days they even have the option of 100% guaranteed (no 50/50 coin flip) for small higher cost than the regular 50/50, is up to you which one you prefer.
@@Lofwyr yeah I know what gacha was like before pity 🤣 sorry I'm not gonna worship hoyo for birthing the hell that is the 50/50. A system designed to piss you off enough to pay for more pulls to get the character. And furthermore the idea of adding weapons to the character banner is the biggest BS I've ever seen. I'm not spending money in a gotcha game to pull for a lame three-star weapon I'm paying to pull for a character 🙄. Keep the characters in The Character banner and the weapons in the weapons banner. Genshin should never have gotten away with making that an acceptable practice it's designed to further dilute your pulls and make them less valuable because it lowers the chances of even getting a low value character. There is literally no upside to that. Not sure why I should be thankful to genshin for any of that. Whatever game popularizes a guaranteed hard pity banner that chokes out that hoyo BS will get my praises.
@@brendonbewersdorf986 I am not saying that you should worship Hoyo, but it is fair to acknowledge what good they did for the gacha genre, or would you prefer a no pity system at all? Instead of a guarantee, would you perhaps want to roll and roll, trying to get that miserable low % to get 5 stars that every gacha has? I know that pity system isn't perfect, but it is better than no pity system at all, lol. If Hoyo were actually greedy, they wouldn't give free 4* weapons in events, quests, or make those 4* weapons viable at all, my point is, Hoyoverse can do a lot much worse if they wanted... Could they do better? Of course, but they won't move their lazy and cheap asses unless they get strong competition to force them to.
@@Lofwyr I prefer hard pity. Hoyo making a half assed pity system doesn't qualify them for any sort of compliment. The false dichotomy of either 50/50 or no pity is very silly. Even if I accepted your premise that genshins pity system going mainstream is a win. Genshin popularized weapons banners, weapons in the character banner, and the 50/50 coin flip. 3 extra evils for one good is not a fair trade no matter how much you talk about pity systems. Do I prefer pity? Sure I do but genshin also never invented it either. As for dealing with low rates I also just flat out don't pay or play gacha games with extremely low pulls Chances. I'm not a gambling addict. The only reason those gacha with such low chances (including genshin) still exist is because stupid people buy buy and buy no matter what. I only support games If I like the devs after I've played F2p for awhile before deciding to spend. If a game is stingy or doesn't feel like it's appreciative of my time I quit or stay F2p it's that easy. I'm sorry but giving out mediocre 4* weapons crumbs isn't exactly glowing praise lol I would rather cut the weapons banner out entirely. Sorry dude but I'm not the type of person who just swallows whatever a gacha gives me and says thank you. Their greedy corporations who don't give a damn. They only respond if you hit them in the wallet and not pay for what you don't support. I won't stop demanding better when they keep demanding my money lol.
yeah let them cook guys, the game feels like its in its baby state, the core game is fun af, but so far the only "hype" content is the events featuring new stories and bosses, even tho when i played pgr for example, it felt like there was even less content except farming the same bosses, not saying i didnt have fun with pgr. and comparing this with genshin is very unfair but whateva, since this is more of traditional gacha and genshin is an open world game, with NPCs talking about their boring ass grandpa for 10 minutes which is unskippable, god i die of boredom from genshin, started on release but inazuma and sumeru killed me. also any gacha that actually features gameplay climbs up miles on my list, since i cant play these autoplay gachas (just watch a movie or an anime, what are u doing bruvva) and i played years of fgo so turn based im burnt out off too. tldr; one of the most fun gachas i played in a while
Seasun is actually a major game publisher in CN. Their prior focuses were kung-fu style single-player and MMO games. There were a couple previous mobile games too (also kung-fu style). Some of their works are available in SEA but probably not anywhere else in the world. This is probably their first major gacha waifu game.
The only thing similar to Genshin is the fact there is a 50/50 in the gacha. Even the overall gacha is different. Different pity, different rate, no 4 star rate up, just need 2 copies of weapon to max out, no dual weapon banner shit, can grind copy of chars... - Gameplay is obviously different. - Skip button - No male chars. - Logistics are completly different than artefact, no rng on main stats, no need to lvl them to see the end result of subs stat except the last one that can be rerolled. Can be bought on shop with a currency that you have by recycling the logisitcs that you don't need and there is only 3 of them. (So completly different than what you explained...) - Leveling char is different, no specific mats to have every 20 lvl. - Leveling skill is compltely different too, you gain stat (alignement index) during the process, that is why leveling skills other than the support one on support chars is important too. - The base system has nothing to do with the teepot fail of Genshin. - The stamina refresh is better than Genshin. - There is a chat... - It is way more generous than genshin overall. (Free 5 stars, basically 1.5 pity per patch) - There is a lot of skins for char, something that Genshin have difficulty to offer for some reason. - And they add new endgame or variance of existing one. Its way more similar to PGR than anything else. (But obviously completly different too) So i don't know where you saw them copying Genshin or anything like that and you missed a lot of things. Welp pretty atrocious review indeed.
If it cheers you up, you can get old logistics now, the farming efficiency for them is horrible but they're there. Also before this, you could get them during character reruns. They also buffed battlepass rewards.
Discovered this game randomly last year when looking for F2P anime games. Me and my friends all pre-registered, and have been playing it since launch. We usually play FPS games coop and PVP, but have been enjoying this game so far. They also play Genshin, but less frequently since there it's even more stingy with pulls, and the grindfest is real.
Good video as always my dude o/ but i think you missed somethings, a really like the idea of comparing this game with genshin because of monetization, but said that, is important to clarify the diferences - in this game you can buy weapons for the standard pull - you can dismentle 3 5* and make 1 5* for the standard pull - in the rogue like mode they give 1/3 os this material so you can make a 5* weapon from standard - you only need 2 copies of a 5* weapon to max the passive(this is huge btw!) The best part is that you can max out a character with the signature weapon (if is a standard one ) as a f2p, i don´t think is fair the so is same as genshin in this aspect Another thing is that on the last half of the patch have a rerun of a previous 5* characeter, when this happens the logist and weapon from event shop will be available to purche on the event shop, dont negate the fomo expect, but make a lot less of issue. Also play PGR my dude, you wil love it!!!
Jumped into snowbreak at the start 2024 on pc version since i've been seeing it on the play store for awhile and seemed interesting to me. I liked Third person shooting games, adding anime waifus piqued me. The game was overall fun but definitely felt repetitive, especially on a few game modes which felt dry sooner. The story and characters are amazing to my view. and I do agree the story kinda ramped up and started becoming more and more interesting by chapter 11 and so forth. The events however are so long, some event gamemodes will be locked until the set date to be released, but the free resources are too much to pass up, It had helped me catch up to the current content on lvl70-80 which alot may find themselves slowly progressing due to how abyssmal some resource grind can get and how costly building characters get. But all in all, It's still a pretty fun game, and you can see that the devs are cooking with improvements each new update, Just give it a try and see if you like it or not.
U know so little in like Everything.. there's in game recommend guide for every chara what to build with since the beginning And they made whole new map and area for literally every single new event monthly How are u complaining when a game add a whole new weapon series in game like there's no other selection Half year in btw
Very detailed and fair analysis of the game, and almost in line with my impression of it on release. Please do Limbus Company next! The people need to be made aware of how ridiculously good of a game it is, especially turn-based combat enjoyers.
Event logistics will have rerun once the character that uses it gets a rerun, as of now, it only takes about 2 patches for a rerun (if a character was in ver 1.1 the rerun will be 1.3 or 1.4).
snowbreak was the perfect game for me at launch, and I loved it. but as soon as they started being more fan service-y, I stopped playing. I'm glad to see they're doing well though
I downloaded the game a few days ago just to check how good the game is. The fan service aspect is pretty evident and I'm perfectly fine with it. I really like the combat mechanism, it's one of the best, if not the best combat system I've seen on mobile, very mobile friendly and easy to adapt. I too don't understand why things like gacha currencies, battle pass, and interactive skin gacha, all are so complicated. As a new player, I see everything thrown onto me and I'm stunned. HI3 was much worse than that but this game needs to fix gacha elements. There are so many currencies and I'm stunned. Overall, I like how they managed to make a really good game with beautiful, seductive waifus kicking ass of those enemies, it feels refreshing to say the least.
I am part of the small and dedicated fanbase! You can see for sure that this is a smaller team and effort. If you're into cyberpunk storylines and quick shooter gameplay Snowbreak is really fun. Oddly, the storyline progression has been one of the key contributors for me sticking around.
I'm honestly considering playing this game casually since I fall into the "shooter fan that like anime" niche but idk since I don't hear much about this game very often
@@bgbss680 It's a really small game tbh, the devs and community reflect that. I do think it's worth trying out since it doesn't cost you anything. The time investment (once you finish the story etc) is pretty minimal unless you just wanna play more to shoot stuff, which is a plus for me. Events are spaced out too so you can focus on other games as well. Probably one of those things where if it checks enough boxes for you, cool! If not, then that's cool too and now you know!
I am from the future. Devs have listened and decided to make signature Logistics to be available. The upcoming patch after Eatchel will feature 2 5★ characters and one of them is FREE via login gifts.
So the story is good?
@@qwinn9963 Like everything personal preference will matter a lot. I really enjoy the story and it's refreshing to see storylines that actually progress. The MC stand in is kinda cool too and isn't a complete idiot. There's enough there if you want to get into it, but again, personal preference usually determines what kind of stories do it for ya.
I think a more realistic comparison would be Honkai Impact 3rd, since this game is a completely different genre than Genshin. Also the monetization might be the same but you get a LOT more free currency than Genshin.
pgr too, the ui is sooo similar to pgr's
Fr tho, genshin rates and free currency are just predatory, im surprised he took it as the standard
@@zoomboy3627 I think that may be because many people are familiar with just genshin, and it is the baseline of what they expect in "gacha games"
which game doesnt give more gacha currency than genshin at this point lmao
The gacha part left out important information. You can farm for constellations after you get your first character, and it only takes 2 weapons to reach max refinement. This is much better than genshin.
I agree.
And there is only ONE rate up weapon, so if you lost the 50-50 the next one is the rate up weapon, on the contrary genshin has 2 freaking rate up weapons and before their "pity" you could roll 1000 times and still not get it, anyone remembers what happend to that guy wanting homa?
I always hear that but nothing comes even close to genshin system where you dont need special weapons or OP characters to progress contrary to like 95% of gacha games since you can just keep world tier low and do everything.
Wait that's an insane part to miss
@@aqualuma4038 its literally in the video starting at 23:25
Another thing is that I don't think Snowbreak is trying to compete, or even follow Genshin's footsteps. It's more like they are following Honkai Impact's footsteps since in that game, it isn't open world, and the story are told through still models, but are voiced, which is something I hope Snowbreak can improve.
Besides, there are other bigger titles already in the works to compete with Genshin like Wuthering Waves, Mugen, and the latest one known, Azur Promilia.
Though Snowbreak did have an open world game mode in the Summer Event, but it is small and nothing compare to Genshin. And again, Honkai Impact also have that as well.
And in some strange way, I think I am glad that the game stays within the niche but have a dedicated player base. After all, you don't see a lot of Chinese gacha games focusing more on the fan service. This is from China after all.
Yeah, that thought crossed my mind pretty hard when he started describing the disconnect from the story (presented as a 2D visual novel) to the 3D gameplay. This game is almost literally Honkai Impact 3rd
are the stories voiced in english or do i have to change the voiceover language to hear them in story?
@Addition2 that game you mentioned "Azur Promelia" sounded interesting to me,just wanna ask if its available on mobile/Android
@@hamadaakasha It is. It is also available on PC and PS5.
@@Addition2 just wanna ask again😅...I looked it up on playstore but didn't saw it there but when i searched it up kn google,i saw apk links of the game so that you can play it on mobile...So yeh,sorry im hesitant to ask this since it feels embarrassing but i really just want to try the game since it looked cool so yeh
You didnt go into how much "primogems" you can get and how frequent. The frequency, reliabilty, and amount gain is what makes Snowbreak have the better Genshin gacha system. In Genshin, once you get all the chests in the overworld and complete achievements, you will need to depend on events and dailies for anymore rotating primogems. You could walk around the map and get less than 100 primos after 5 hours of treasure hunting. But for Snowbreak you can do weeklies, dailies, and events quickly and they give way more pulls overall in a shorter amount of time.
cant agree more.. starting about a month on this game already and i already got 2 orange weapon and 6 orange operative (1 lyfe dupe). this game is really generous about giving a free pull.
Basically just like Blue archive
@@Schale.kivotos blue archive is f2p friendly? nexon? really? wow
@@kyotheman69Not exactly, it's that BA tends to give away a lot of currency but when there are no events or celebrations it becomes really slow to earn it, but definitely faster than most Nexon games.
Day 1 player here, i agree totally.
I also played genshin since day 1 and they are in totally different leagues.
Snowbreak respects you as a player and you get a nice amount of "gems" for the gatcha, while in genshin you have to invest a SHITON of hours exploring, completing quests and the pain in the ass of wall of irrelevant texts for an NPC you don't care.
If Genshin's quests were related to characters or better yet, legendary quests were important for the character instead of a random situation that just happend to have the character, would be more enjoyable.
So one thing that is very important to note for the future reviews of these gacha games, yes genshin has become the new standard when it comes to the new era of gacha games since they showed the world that 3D massive open world gacha games can work (I mean in just 2024 and 2025 there will be a shift in market since genshin won't be the only one in this genre any more) a lot of the current popular gacha games stil follow the "Old" formula that being instance based levels, with menus for grinding, visual novel story telling and characters being more about the static image rather than the 3D model itself.
Nikke is a perfect example of the old formula being modernized and updated where normally gatcha games would turn that beautiful png image of the character you pulled for into some chibi or not on par 3D model. Just wanted to throw that out there in case you play something like Azur Lane where there is no open world levels at all, and is primarly sustained by its fanservice and super friendly gacha rates there are others that are bit more modern but still follow the old formula like Arknights, Aether Gazer, PGR, Blue Archive, Reverse 1999, Snowbreak, etc before genshin all they were doing to one up each other was some new form of gameplay or better looking characters. While it's fine taking genshin as the new standard I would argue very few "New gen" gacha games have survived ever since genshin came out, Nikke is the only one that comes to mind and HSR which to no one's surprise is from Hoyoverse, so it would of naturally integrated itself into the genre.
You said it's important to note but didn't clarify why it's important to note any of this before going off on a tangent. We're all aware not every Gacha game is the same as Genshin, but it's absolutely the new standard, and there's been a clear transition from 2D to 3D with how advanced our tech is getting. Old games relying on this aren't a problem, but neither should they still be standard or made as an excuse for a new game relying on old gimmicks.
But at the end of the day, to each their own.
kek the AL emote as pfp. Also, i was taken aback by how much this game and aether gazer look alike, the katya character really looks like flowfly mist shu from AG
About the logistic, they have just added a features to buy event logistic in the game.
Also, more fan services are coming because they changed the rating of Snowbreak to 18+.
More fanservice...maybe i should start playing now
@@aspectofdecay007 Was thinking the same myself. I've played all kinds of gatchas and they all eventually bored me to tears or frustrated me beyond my red lines. But none of them have been cheesy fanservice crap like this. Might as well give it a try, not planning on changing my single status anytime soon anyway.
lmao
In play store the rating is 12+, it's prolly been censored. Where did you find the 18+ one?
@@mealsofhouseofmeals that the neat path, you don't. You uncensore the game yourself. There is a easy uncensored method, try search for it.
Idk, I don't really like how you try to compare Snowbreak with Genshin every minute, they are not even the same genre, the only thing they have in common is that both are Chinese gachas
Buying gatcha weapons to max potential for a character is very much Genshin at its core though and the gameplay feels like that game also just different setting
Buying gacha weapons to max potential is a gacha, is not something just Genshin has lol. Every gacha has it but it can be different things, and you can't say "Oh, but is weapons so is like Genshin", no, it's weapons because is a fucking shooter. And the gameplay has nothing to do, again, is a fucking shooter, Genshin is an open-world adventure, they don't have anything in common. Sorry for cursing but it gets really tiring when you Genshin stans want to compare everything to Genshin and say that everyone is copying Genshin
This is what happens when people that have no actual knowledge in a genre try to give a review on it.
Oh fuck off. Genshin is most known and successfull gacha scams that didn't die yet. They're are tons of clones and this is one of many. He did good review
@Zack-0906 oh right my bad, I forgot when I played Gangrene Impact you go around hugging everything to death. PSYCHEE explained this is "like" not a one for one copy. The weapon system is pretty much a copy paste affair along with ranking skills etc which it is. If you want a character to be at max potential you have to get the matching weapon. I play NIKKE also and there is no weapon gatcha in that game you farm random Armour only as characters use a signature weapon and skills. Every Gatcha 🤣🤦♂️🤣👍
Imagine if Nikke 2 becomes like this 😩
😳
Imagine gameplay like this with Stellar Blade's presentation 😳
Wdym
@@ranielle9271 exactly that would be sick. a gatcha game with stellar blades graphics and character style but nikke characters, enemies and shit
This is what I expect before playing the current Nikke, when I saw it in the app store 😂
I'm stuck in Snowbreak being a pretty much noob, blindly playing with no research until now. This video was very informative and much appreciated. Thank you! Taught me more in 30 minutes then i have learned from game in 3 months.
Meanwhile the only endgame in genshin is spiral abyss for 3 years straight
Say what you will man, Fenny and Katya kept me coming back.
Best girls by far
Logistics come back in the unlimited tab of the event shop when the characters gains a rerrun banner. You will be able to farm katya's BIS squad when she rerrun god knows when. (Not that long actually, characters rerrun pretty often in this game)
20:15
A new Operation came in and there you can obtained The Eli Squad, but I don't know if it will remain in it after the event, but since there is no time limit, it will probably remain in it.
Fight,-> Operation,-> Mind Refinement (Obtain Logistics Officers in the Event)
In principle, all previous event squads are included, but since I just started, I can't be sure.
Also, in the Operative menu under statistics, click View Details,-> Recommended, and there you will find: - Basic and - Advanced Equipment. These are usually the best suited items for an operative. Regardless, you can search for guides, because there may be a better build, but if someone doesn't want to spend time searching for builds, this info will come in handy.
It's permanent. Seems like the community didn't like how they have to wait for a rerun either and with a growing list of characters using reruns is just not sustainable moving forward.
In its current version right now, u can farm for old event weapons and logistics. Elite logistics has its own separate area in the shop
Ah yes, i'm waiting for your atrocious review for PGR
I already can tell he ain't gonna like it that much since he sets Genshin as the standard lol
@@kingzzMash lol pgr came out even before genshin
@@tenashi3853 I know, my point is he will compare a billion dollar open world game with a small hack and slash game, Genshin has set a near impossible standard for gacha games unfortunately. I feel bad Snowbreak it didn;t have a chance lol.
Also, he's not into gameplay that much and he most probably will not like the Chara designs, since most are not sexualized and colorful enough.
@@kingzzMash Wdym PGR has great character designs
@@daxie__3210he that type of player leave him we can’t argue with people like that 😂
Actually just started playing this last month because of Katya's asmr and the rise of it's fan service especially on their skins.
Enjoyed the gameplay alot cause I'm a fan of shooter games in general. The budget is definitely low for this but I like the potential of it hopefully it reaches it.
Haven't been too deep yet in the game but I see myself playing it for a long time.
For future reviews there's two games I have in mind: Alchemy Stars and Path to Nowhere both games I tried back then cause of wanting another Arknights type game. PTN is the one I want to be back on especially it's been popping off in CN but don't have the time for it.
Same people hating on this game for no reason. its one of its kind atm in its genre.
16:18 The reason why the English Dub VAs are discontinued because most of the VAs complains about the "too many fanservice" and just hating on anime and video games which is the right call to fire them and release it on Steam which gained positive reviews.
well, kinda their own fault for hiring incompetent idiots to do their VO in a foreign language in the first place. but cutting losses is better than trying to work with those morons further
UPDATE: Ok so they reintroduced the limited squads in the current even which began on may 30th, so if you have been wondering about the fomo aspect, you can be at peace
21:22 you do can get the previous limited Logistic . it happen when rerun character got release just like when Chenxing Etheral Cloud first ever rerun banner on the game, they update the unlimited store to include her logistic beside the current on-going new character banner, the only thing that wont get re-release is the 5* weapon part (assult riffle part for this case)
nice somebody from the game pointed this one out, re run banners happen so expect katya's banner to have a re run in the near future.
Waiting for the re-run is still a incredibly stupid mechanic.
Devs also confirmed they will be adding ways to farm limited logistics in the future
@@LuckyUnlucky2 that person must be stupid enough knowing how any gacha game operate and still going in .
in this case, he pulled & GOT the rate-up banner character, he IS playing the rate-up banner character patch, but still miss the whole thing. and then blame the BIS gear/relic/artifact/logistic not feature anywhere after the patch bcos he dint bother to check everything (knowing he is making a review video) at the event shop featured together with the rate-up character . then blame the game.
even me who play the game without looking at review or guide know when i first play this game
@@thebigsamthank goodness 👍
wow, I just started to play yesterday and here we have a video from Pseychie, awesome!
Snowbreak is fun for the most part. I start playing a couple of months after launch and it improved a bit. The story is getting a bit more interesting, and the fanservice is increasing, although im a man so i cant really complain.
I will slightly correct you regarding when it started. While Katya Klein is noticeably a fanservice character, it started with the Yehrus storyline and a character called Tess Kotkin, a cheerful, aloof redhead with big... guns, and basically a belt functioning as a skirt.
One aspect you might have missed, regarding the freebies part like the Personnel File, is the possibility to get 5 star weapons from the standard weapon banner with Reward Codes, which is the equivalent of Starglitter in Genshin Impact. I think you get 5 Reward Codes for every 4 star item you pull and 10 for every 5 star. And it costs around 480 to buy a 5 star weapon uing these, the same way it costs 24 starglitter to buy a constellation for a 4 star in Genshin Impact. As you said, it takes a while, but its a nice touch because it garantees a 5 star of your choice. One last thing regarding freebies is the fact that you can dismantle weapons and or manifestations of 5 stars to buy other 5 stars when you reach the maximum level of a weapon or Manifestation.
Lets say you get R2 Stardust Memory, Lyfe's Wild Hunt signature. If you get another one, you can dismantle it for weapon materials and eventually buy a diferent 5 star weapon (when you stock up enough on the material). Same with Manifestations. When you reach the maximum count of 5, you can dismantle Manifestation items into Mori Fragments and use them to buy more manifestation poins. Although in this game, Manifestations are not nearly as strong as constellations in Genshin impact.
I started playing the game because i thought the gameplay was interesting, but im getting more interested in the story now. I try to support games i enjoy so like in Genshin, i usually get the battlepass and the welkin moon equivalent. And im really curious to see how they flesh out the story, given that they presented us with clear antagonists now, in the form of the former Yggdrasil board members, with "ω" being the first major antagonist.
But i think your review of the game was pretty fair and on point. One thing i will add, is that you should check out Mecha Break, a game being developed by the same company. It looks pretty good so far, and not sure if its gonna be gacha or not. At least there arent any noticeable waifus apart from a pilot in a skin tight outfit. But its good to know the success of this game allowed them to try and go a bit higher with Mecha Break.
agreed gameplay is fun. can always pick itu p.
I don't think this game is copying Genshin, most of the stuff you mentioned is in a lot of other action gacha games (some of which predate Genshin), like switching between characters during combat and the character progression system. If I had to compare it with something else, I'd say it's more like PGR with Warframe-style gameplay
26:28 It’s a third person *shooter* my man. That’s what I came here for, I strongly disagree with your claim Genshin-like minigames are needed (In fact the minigame spam is precisely one of the many reasons I ended up uninstalling Genshin) I am for one glad when it’s a more focused game.
Everything else in the review was fair enough. I don’t know why you need to compare it so hard to Genshin when it isn’t even- by your own admission- an open world like it.
If I wanted to play minigames I would just boot up Mario Party.
I remember when this game had mini-games on each in every event, especially summer event (that strangely released on autumn) had monopoly like mini-game. Sadly, after that summer event, they aren't doing such thing anymore, so I only hope they bring back mini-games into their games.
By the way, most Chinese university students only have ￥1000-1500 for living per month, you can imagine how stupid Snowbreak was at that time.
They might. They’re basically just recovering from financial difficulties now and we might see them go back to using the extra budget for mini games.
From what I see. Most of the minigames are from limited story events. Box pushing for Mingdeng and the monopoly from the beach. Minigame probably comes back on the next limited event. Currently, they only do main story event.
Good job on the Review, one thing you kinda missed on it is the fact that Orange Weapons you need only 2 copies to max it out, unlike most current games with 5 copies or so. Regarding the logistics both the limited operators, Chenxing and Haru, their reruns came with old events logistics to the current event shop so for example when Katya's reruns comes around you'll be able to get more copies for her logistics. Also took me 8 months of farming manifestations shards to max Fritia's to M5.
Hoping to see more reviews for gacha games outside the meme ones. cheers.
Why does that character have my name? D: - Quality content as always!
the adjutant is the best character
he should be playable. I don't know any other gacha game where the character you directy embody starts going out of his way to kill people as tye story progresses
21:19 Not true! It's not permanently lost! It will come back on her banner rerun... which may happen in 3~4months ;p This already happened to all other limited time event logistics, so it will happen to hers as well.
That said, I agree with most of what you said. It's a good gacha that respect the player's time. 7/10.
But need to wait until when?
Thank you for the review, it was in-depth and I appreciate your experience of its current state. I didn't quite understand the frequence Genshin Impact references because I don't play that game. However, i know you're using it as a general reference and standard
Having played Snowbreak since launch, here's what I can leave you all with as a full F2P player.
The gacha may or may not please you, but you don't need to spend nor overindulge in each banner. The game has made it such that the default versions of Lyfe (SMG - all rounder), Fenny (Shotgun - armor breaking), Yao (Sniper - life support) are really all you need to clear every playable mode of this game except modes that need multi-functional teams. Because I put my faith in the game's design and built up these 3, I never felt the need to pull unless I wanted a new advantage. And I can proudly say I only have 3 Orange-tier Operatives, with one item for a free Orange, and a combined stock for 120, 10x rolls. The game is that generous when played diligently, and we're 10 months in.
Resources were rough at first, but once they started putting up the event activities in each patch, resources suddenly became plenty with surplus. And since you aren't trying to build a full harem, you WILL be able to easily and immediately maximise the loadout to a new Operative except for the gated Manifestation rank (gacha, or time investment).
The recent shift to fanservice? By all means just ignore it if you don't want it. As long as the skivvy aesthetics aren't being intrusive (and they aren't), the game's playability remains the same. You have to purposefully make the skivvy stuff shown instead.
Finally, there's an important point to be made - gacha games need time investment and focus, and Snowbreak is no exception. Don't try to upgrade everything all at once - make it so that you have a solid team that can carry you up to par with the game's content difficulty, then slowly diversify out so that other members can catch up and fill the teams adequately. Because of the rough start, I'm sure some of us took at least 2-3 months to have a solidly armed team.
I don't mean to detract the video itself, but would you simply accept a video essay on the game, or the many others here who have actual near-1-year experience with the game?
I'm watching this video 3 months later and as someone who has played since day 1, there have been so many QOL updates in the game lately that the video should eb remade, like the whole not being able to farm Logistics of past events. Or weapons (as both are now permanently added to one of the shops).
Also, even if the game is going towards fanservice, the monetization is based on skins imo,. There has been also a new type of banner added which has a 100% rate up on the limited character and weapon. Also very important that they announced that they will mantain only 1 new character per update + reruns and if they ever release 2 new characters, they will ALWAYS give one for free (it already happened with free 5* Enya and free 5* new Fenny on anniversary).
I really think that these videos with only 1 month of experience in the game have to be taken with a grain of salt as you missed several things (like other older players mentioned in the commnets). You emphatise logistics a lot but I have NEVER needed to grind perfect stats or somthing like that, you can clear everything if you know how to play and have a normal logistic squads. Also, comparing it to Genhsin seems stupid. Btw the exploration is there, but you missed the exploration events like Haru's event or the summer event where you could explore the whole map and get moire details of the story, what happened there or even go fishing (summer event). You can still read the main story but this is there.
Also the game has been improving A LOT and they put effort into the players and community being comfortable with the game. They keep improving in the game mods, QOL etc.
PD: I really like story btw, I think the girls have a lot of personality and the plot is interesting.
I played a couple of hours of Snowbreak today. I like it a lot. Since it's a new game I'm overwhelmed with new information being prompted to me all the time, but I'm slowly getting the hand of it. I have to say I also hate the idea of having separate gachas for character and weapons, and is one aspect that makes me consider not investing too much in the game. However I did find the story and characters insteresting enough, so I think I'll keep this as my side game, for as long as it can keep me insterested.
I am part of the small and dedicated fanbase , I really enjoy this game and the story and no other gacha can provide with the gameplay Snowbreak has atm , hopefully more people give it a try , also worth mentioning I believe the devs are busy releasing a mech battle royale called Mecha Break
To answer your question about whether or not a character's free BIS Logistic Squads can be re-obtained, here is my answer. The 5* Haru and Chenxing, both have free BIS Logistic Units in their respective events. And just so happens, during Katya's event, 5* Haru got a return banner where you can pull her and her best weapon. But that's not all, you can also get her free 4* weapon AND BIS Logistics in the same Katya event. The same goes for 5*Chenxing.
I missed both character's free weapons and Logistic Squad, and I already obtained them during those newer events. And chances are, when Katya return again with her banner, you CAN get her free 4* weapon and BIS Logistic Squad.
NIKKE is been one my favorite gacha games because of the story and gameplay, I always wanted an anime style of fps until I saw Snowbreak, played the beta and got hooked on it, now booth gachas been actively playing and I’m happy with that, totally understand that is not for you, but at least you gave it a try, thanks for your honest review, hope one day you get back and play on the side at least
After first anniv you can farm limited logistic and free event weapon so the only fomo left is border, trophy and bp skin
Seeing this gacha review and realize another person's subjecting themselves to gacha review hell like me
Kindred spirits 🎉✨
Legit played and tested almost a shit ton of gacha games for the sake of reviewing it and haven't seen this one yet 👀👀👀
0:05 - Clicked on this vid to hear about a dumpster fire, and Immediately had the reaction "IS THAT JUST A MAP FROM R6 SIEGE" for a second lmao
genshin this genshin that
it’s not even the same genre of game 😭😭 snowbreak is like the only third person shooter gatcha game around, there isn’t really a comparable game to it.
Small thing the logistic for a character will come back during their rerun, as it will be added to the event shop of that time. It has happen with 2 characters already..
the saying is "few and far in between." :) nice video, thanks!
Having played this game since release, it's one of the more generous sorts, but only because the frequency of banners is much lower than other gacha titles. I've spent $0 dollars, and have basically everything in game, because there are weekly/daily tasks that reward the currency for pulls at a decent rate. Logistics (the Genshin artifact things) may be random, but you can pull whichever you want once you've acquired any semblance of currency gained from regular play (not cash shop). Literally the least random thing in the game. Also, event logistics are only sort of Best in Slot? The random stats you get are random for every logistics, and the bonuses don't have quite the same effect that you'd see in other games. You just need a bonus that benefits that particular character.
5-star weapons, especially those for limited banners, are mostly amazing because they provide a straight damage boost as the first part of their weapon passives. Overall though, still easily pulled at the frequency they show up. They also only require one duplicate to max out their stats, which is nice (4-star weapons require 5 copies).
The real disappointment are the skins and costs associated with them. There just aren't many, and the ones that do show up are way too costly.
The choice to remove the English dub was due to the fact that almost nobody used it. Since they provided us the ability to switch to the JP dub day 1, it was probably an easy choice
Loved this review format, can't wait for Nikke, Blue Archive, Honkai SR and FGO
Dude, major plus points for using the Everhood OST...proving you are a man of fine tastes
22:55 because it cant be praised enough, this is an awesome QoL that I would like every game to have. This is only the 2nd game I've heard of having this feature, the 1st one being Vanguard Zero.
I played this game at launch and took a break and when I came back I couldn’t find my account…
But I liked playing so I’m going to continue playing.
would say its underrated, the gameplays really fun.
Let It Die & Lost Judgment soundtracks? Auto subscribed 👍👍 it's rare to see UA-camrs using these soundtracks in their videos.
When the video mention how the game future is saved with the fanservice route.
I'm doubting it,
Currently, my Friend list have about 10 players of lvl 85~100, that have not logged in for more than 20 days.
(Excluding those that have not logged in more than 70 days, counting only from the fanservice path)
The take home message is: Fanservice is good, but if the core gameplay loop is not fixed, players will still quit for good eitherway.
What I think will happen is that, the game will still run and not EOS, but supported by small group of loyal fans.
Especially the CN servers, seems to be doing great.
you should check it out now its improved a lot and they have added some of your suggestions i hope you give it another chance
you rock m8
kep the good work up
great video
loved how you mentioned genshin every other second
4:27 been playing almost a year myself. from what i've seen that's normal as a F2P person. your operatives won't get the best gear unless you're specifically spending your currency to do that. I'd recommend not doing that at all.
Snowbreak vet here, gonna yap for a bit
Been playing since day one, got every single character except two that I don't want (Tess and Lyfe).
Believe it or not, I'm also a very low spender and have dropped less than $50 bucks on this game. That being said, having to deal with the gacha system twice is definitely super lame, and if you don't have the signature weapon of a few 5*'s, it makes them almost useless. The logistics and neuronics grind can also be a pain, but they SHOWER you in free materials during big campaigns; which is extremely helpful.
Overall, game is kino. The waifu shooter market is shockingly untapped, and snowbreak scratches that itch pretty well.
Also, even as a vet, I still have no idea what's going on in the story. lmao
They made it VERY difficult to stay invested in it.
ur not vet if you don't have ALL the Char while f2p like me :)
@@dannyzein6448
Nah, I'd save my digicash
The content isn't hard enough to need the weapons. The units are still very viable without the weapon and players can farm shards for characters they like. I spent nothing and got characters I want plus a weapon or 2 for those I like with free currency
I play since launch too, have all the characters except the last one, wasn't able to.
I deeply regret Tess, can't blame you. @@FreiWraithborne
@@HMNNO not to mention the weekly missions doesn't require you to clear the hardest content on Neural
snowbreak is actually really fun, and i think i will get back into it after this video lmao. the shooting felt really good
This review is basically outdated. The 50/50 banner is no longer required and there's now a 100% banner for both characters and weapons. The dev made so much changes and improvement since that it might be the most player friendly gacha out there.
they did add some open world maps on some events, i think they are still finding their footing because the first was really simple and experimental but i loved the summer one.
they need to add more maps like the summer one that had its own story and rewards.
I feel not eveerything needs to be compared to genshin, altho most people will. when you do this I feel it puts even more unneeded pressure or an expectations on it that it wasn't meant to reach. A game like this is supposed to a shootem up waifu collector and I think it holds well for what it's supposed to be. Yes, while it may have some aspects that are genshin in nature, it's not all the way the same as it's the norm for gacha games now.
Yes, there is some holes that need to be patched like the EN voice overs wanted to leave the game because the game had more fan service in the game in which the company said you can leave is pretty based. Now we still need voice overs and I rather have JP or even other languages.
Either way, I think this is a pretty fair review and the game is worth checking out. by the time the game hits it's anni let's hope for more changes and fixes to make the game more enjoyable.
oh really that's what happened with the english va's? where can i find out more about this? i want to drink their tears
lot of this is out dated now. there are 100% banners and every time a banner is up that characters equipment is up in a easy to farm event. I'm 100% f2p and have got the 4 of the best characters in the game in less than 2 months and some 5 star weapons.
I've been playing for a couple weeks so far and this game is amazing. Definitely didn't expect a game from China to provide this level of fanservice. I was complaining about losing the 50/50 to a friend and he said: "Yeah I hate getting dudes in my pulls" 😭😭
I actually played it but eventually quit. I liked the shooter aspect but I didn't like the fact that progress felt slow because I didn't have enough Presence. In Nikke, my progress is only blocked if my units are too weak or I suck (was stuck at the boss in Ch24 yesterday, beat it finally and witnessed the reason why Rapi is the poster girl of Nikke, lol).
Your video made me want to pick it up again though, tho I'm not even sure if I remember my account...
Me who has never played Genshin listening to him compare everything to Genshin "I still dont understand"
2:22 Tip: you don't activate fenny's E to break armor.
It reduces armor breaking ability.
Loving the series, honest and detailed reviews
been playing since day one, me and my friends. I do agree with you on practically every degree, especially the BIS logs issue. They will be adding BIS logs with out banner soon. but i cannot lie - from myself and my friends, it was a rough first patch/month. But we just ended always doing the weekly coop together, then event coop. comparing scores and strats on the weekly 2 competitive bosses and the ball kept rolling. its kinda the argument that "games are better with friends" but yes, this is a gacha where the coop shines. its not groundbreaking but never have i had to que with others for a more proper engagement in said activity as often as snowbreak. if you have friends who are willing i'd say give it a try.
Very good review. I personally enjoy this game very much and have been playing it since September, last year. That being said, I'm already not jumping up and down with excitement to perform the ridiculous amount of grinding involved in obtaining little scraps of resources. So, I can definitely see myself losing interest in the not too distant future. Spending some money would obviously improve the experience considerably but I'm simply not in the position to do so.
This is a good and fair review. I'm a fan of Snowbreak but I play little of it compared to Nikke. I am one of those people who saw the loss of English Voice Acting as a sign of EOS, but going the "add more booba" route is something I won't complain about. That said, my biggest issue with the game is how samey it feels. Even if I only play like an hour a day (if that), it's hard for me to feel engaged after awhile.
Since GBF has its 10th anniversary, that might be a good Gacha to check out, though the anniversary rewards are going away soon though.
I'd love to see your review of aether gazer, especially its really really good weapon gacha system
After your Honkai Impact video I think you can see the similarities between Snowbreak and HI3. As the others are saying this game is more relative to HI3 than Genshin, especially with the way the gacha works imo and the farmable character pieces, etc.
I've been playing since day 1, I think that's a fair and balanced review. I like it because the time commitment is very small and the waifus are good. And I just enjoy shooters in general, which is great for me.
I like that the content runs are very long, I prefer a more relaxed pace rather than rushing myself to complete all the game modes before they disappear.
cool idea for a series, i'm here for it
I see "Skip Story" button, i download! "You're likely see a lot of similarities with Genshin Impact" - Except the Skip story button, yes!
much appreciate the video!
Skip text should be allowed in all gachas, it's just a small feature but makes so much difference, not everyone has the time or are interested in reading the story.
@@felipeabreu4866 If only it was good it would make you read itself anyway. For example nikke story is unironically golden.
@@revengeofshadow9353 Nikke is one perfect example of "Came for the booty, but stayed for the story...and the booty".
@@revengeofshadow9353 Low standards bruh lmao
Snobreak has a decent story
Appreciate the review, might actually pull for Acacia's weapon, who knows? 😂
heyho pretty much liked this kind of review :) looking foreward to other games. As the gameplay of snowbreak isnt to my liking i think i wont touch it ever, but i wanted to point something out. The change of pace of the gameplay refering to Genshins (and other Gacha style events) isnt a too important part of the game. Maybe take that part up with a faster "burnout".
Events can be annoying and tbh most play the events for the rewards if the minigames are not to their liking. A change of pace can be nice but if its really needed one can just switch to other entertaining stuff.
Keep up the good work :)
They added a means of farming previous event logistics sets finally, which is fantastic.
This content creator is lucky.
She choose Fenny SSR (as first free SSR) and got Katya.
To be honest, I would like him to do a review again, this time, without Fenny SSR, and no Katya.
See if he changed his mind on lots of things.
26:45 - Isn't a bit it unfair to expect a small gacha company to keep the same frequency and quality of events as Genshin Impact, the biggest gacha game on the planet? Come on, dude...
I think what he was getting at was if the gacha system is going to be pretty greedy like genshin (which is legendary for being greedy AF) then the game Better have some quality to back it up. Not that the game should be expected to have the quality of genshin but that if they were going to use a very demanding gacha system they should offer more quality. You have to give if your going to take. At least that's how I interpreted it
@@brendonbewersdorf986 What? Greedy? Dude, Genshin Impact has many faults, but greedy ain't one of them, yes, their weapon banner is shit but the character banner and the rest is decently monetized.
Did you know that before Genshin Impact, gacha games didn't have a pity system? Hoyo standardized that dude, thanks to the success of Genshin Impact, even the big ones like FGO were forced to include a pity system.
As for Snowbreak, they only copy Genshin's character banner, their weapon banner works like the regular one, and these days they even have the option of 100% guaranteed (no 50/50 coin flip) for small higher cost than the regular 50/50, is up to you which one you prefer.
@@Lofwyr yeah I know what gacha was like before pity 🤣 sorry I'm not gonna worship hoyo for birthing the hell that is the 50/50. A system designed to piss you off enough to pay for more pulls to get the character. And furthermore the idea of adding weapons to the character banner is the biggest BS I've ever seen. I'm not spending money in a gotcha game to pull for a lame three-star weapon I'm paying to pull for a character 🙄. Keep the characters in The Character banner and the weapons in the weapons banner. Genshin should never have gotten away with making that an acceptable practice it's designed to further dilute your pulls and make them less valuable because it lowers the chances of even getting a low value character. There is literally no upside to that. Not sure why I should be thankful to genshin for any of that. Whatever game popularizes a guaranteed hard pity banner that chokes out that hoyo BS will get my praises.
@@brendonbewersdorf986 I am not saying that you should worship Hoyo, but it is fair to acknowledge what good they did for the gacha genre, or would you prefer a no pity system at all? Instead of a guarantee, would you perhaps want to roll and roll, trying to get that miserable low % to get 5 stars that every gacha has?
I know that pity system isn't perfect, but it is better than no pity system at all, lol.
If Hoyo were actually greedy, they wouldn't give free 4* weapons in events, quests, or make those 4* weapons viable at all, my point is, Hoyoverse can do a lot much worse if they wanted...
Could they do better? Of course, but they won't move their lazy and cheap asses unless they get strong competition to force them to.
@@Lofwyr I prefer hard pity. Hoyo making a half assed pity system doesn't qualify them for any sort of compliment. The false dichotomy of either 50/50 or no pity is very silly. Even if I accepted your premise that genshins pity system going mainstream is a win. Genshin popularized weapons banners, weapons in the character banner, and the 50/50 coin flip. 3 extra evils for one good is not a fair trade no matter how much you talk about pity systems. Do I prefer pity? Sure I do but genshin also never invented it either.
As for dealing with low rates I also just flat out don't pay or play gacha games with extremely low pulls Chances. I'm not a gambling addict. The only reason those gacha with such low chances (including genshin) still exist is because stupid people buy buy and buy no matter what. I only support games If I like the devs after I've played F2p for awhile before deciding to spend. If a game is stingy or doesn't feel like it's appreciative of my time I quit or stay F2p it's that easy.
I'm sorry but giving out mediocre 4* weapons crumbs isn't exactly glowing praise lol I would rather cut the weapons banner out entirely.
Sorry dude but I'm not the type of person who just swallows whatever a gacha gives me and says thank you. Their greedy corporations who don't give a damn. They only respond if you hit them in the wallet and not pay for what you don't support. I won't stop demanding better when they keep demanding my money lol.
Bro really set Genshin as the standard for gachas? I can't!
It's literally like one of the biggest gachas in the world but okay yeah 😂
Yeah like genshit is so bad every gacha gonna look godlike next to that dumpster fire
A game that made 4 billion dollars in a single year is bad to you ? 😅

@@N5FX Fifa is recycled garbage but makes a ton every year
Sir, you are doing God's work.
Holy crap...that tip about the limites logistics was big...i nearly missed that
yeah let them cook guys, the game feels like its in its baby state, the core game is fun af, but so far the only "hype" content is the events featuring new stories and bosses, even tho when i played pgr for example, it felt like there was even less content except farming the same bosses, not saying i didnt have fun with pgr. and comparing this with genshin is very unfair but whateva, since this is more of traditional gacha and genshin is an open world game, with NPCs talking about their boring ass grandpa for 10 minutes which is unskippable, god i die of boredom from genshin, started on release but inazuma and sumeru killed me. also any gacha that actually features gameplay climbs up miles on my list, since i cant play these autoplay gachas (just watch a movie or an anime, what are u doing bruvva) and i played years of fgo so turn based im burnt out off too. tldr; one of the most fun gachas i played in a while
great video! Been hearing about this game and one other due to its fan service shift. Could I suggest Brown Dust 2 next?
Holy Crap just foind your channel. You are to Gatcha what Jawun is to Web3. Bravo!
Seasun is actually a major game publisher in CN. Their prior focuses were kung-fu style single-player and MMO games. There were a couple previous mobile games too (also kung-fu style). Some of their works are available in SEA but probably not anywhere else in the world. This is probably their first major gacha waifu game.
The only thing similar to Genshin is the fact there is a 50/50 in the gacha. Even the overall gacha is different. Different pity, different rate, no 4 star rate up, just need 2 copies of weapon to max out, no dual weapon banner shit, can grind copy of chars...
- Gameplay is obviously different.
- Skip button
- No male chars.
- Logistics are completly different than artefact, no rng on main stats, no need to lvl them to see the end result of subs stat except the last one that can be rerolled. Can be bought on shop with a currency that you have by recycling the logisitcs that you don't need and there is only 3 of them. (So completly different than what you explained...)
- Leveling char is different, no specific mats to have every 20 lvl.
- Leveling skill is compltely different too, you gain stat (alignement index) during the process, that is why leveling skills other than the support one on support chars is important too.
- The base system has nothing to do with the teepot fail of Genshin.
- The stamina refresh is better than Genshin.
- There is a chat...
- It is way more generous than genshin overall. (Free 5 stars, basically 1.5 pity per patch)
- There is a lot of skins for char, something that Genshin have difficulty to offer for some reason.
- And they add new endgame or variance of existing one.
Its way more similar to PGR than anything else. (But obviously completly different too)
So i don't know where you saw them copying Genshin or anything like that and you missed a lot of things. Welp pretty atrocious review indeed.
someone who plays snowbreak from day 1, gotta say this game is pretty fun at times, and the characters are .. well not nikke level but still great
If it cheers you up, you can get old logistics now, the farming efficiency for them is horrible but they're there. Also before this, you could get them during character reruns.
They also buffed battlepass rewards.
Discovered this game randomly last year when looking for F2P anime games. Me and my friends all pre-registered, and have been playing it since launch. We usually play FPS games coop and PVP, but have been enjoying this game so far. They also play Genshin, but less frequently since there it's even more stingy with pulls, and the grindfest is real.
Good video as always my dude o/ but i think you missed somethings, a really like the idea of comparing this game with genshin because of monetization, but said that, is important to clarify the diferences
- in this game you can buy weapons for the standard pull
- you can dismentle 3 5* and make 1 5* for the standard pull
- in the rogue like mode they give 1/3 os this material so you can make a 5* weapon from standard
- you only need 2 copies of a 5* weapon to max the passive(this is huge btw!)
The best part is that you can max out a character with the signature weapon (if is a standard one ) as a f2p, i don´t think is fair the so is same as genshin in this aspect
Another thing is that on the last half of the patch have a rerun of a previous 5* characeter, when this happens the logist and weapon from event shop will be available to purche on the event shop, dont negate the fomo expect, but make a lot less of issue.
Also play PGR my dude, you wil love it!!!
The part about the logistics; they changed it. now you can obtain previous season logistics
Jumped into snowbreak at the start 2024 on pc version since i've been seeing it on the play store for awhile and seemed interesting to me.
I liked Third person shooting games, adding anime waifus piqued me. The game was overall fun but definitely felt repetitive, especially on a few game modes which felt dry sooner. The story and characters are amazing to my view. and I do agree the story kinda ramped up and started becoming more and more interesting by chapter 11 and so forth. The events however are so long, some event gamemodes will be locked until the set date to be released, but the free resources are too much to pass up, It had helped me catch up to the current content on lvl70-80 which alot may find themselves slowly progressing due to how abyssmal some resource grind can get and how costly building characters get. But all in all, It's still a pretty fun game, and you can see that the devs are cooking with improvements each new update, Just give it a try and see if you like it or not.
Soon you said looter shooter like destiny or warframe I'm sold!!!
This was a really good video! I'd love to see you do a review on Honkai: Star Rail, especially since it is coming around to its 1st anniversary!
U know so little in like Everything.. there's in game recommend guide for every chara what to build with since the beginning
And they made whole new map and area for literally every single new event monthly
How are u complaining when a game add a whole new weapon series in game like there's no other selection
Half year in btw
Very detailed and fair analysis of the game, and almost in line with my impression of it on release.
Please do Limbus Company next! The people need to be made aware of how ridiculously good of a game it is, especially turn-based combat enjoyers.
let it die elevator music in the background 🔥
Event logistics will have rerun once the character that uses it gets a rerun, as of now, it only takes about 2 patches for a rerun (if a character was in ver 1.1 the rerun will be 1.3 or 1.4).
snowbreak was the perfect game for me at launch, and I loved it. but as soon as they started being more fan service-y, I stopped playing. I'm glad to see they're doing well though
I downloaded the game a few days ago just to check how good the game is. The fan service aspect is pretty evident and I'm perfectly fine with it. I really like the combat mechanism, it's one of the best, if not the best combat system I've seen on mobile, very mobile friendly and easy to adapt.
I too don't understand why things like gacha currencies, battle pass, and interactive skin gacha, all are so complicated. As a new player, I see everything thrown onto me and I'm stunned. HI3 was much worse than that but this game needs to fix gacha elements. There are so many currencies and I'm stunned. Overall, I like how they managed to make a really good game with beautiful, seductive waifus kicking ass of those enemies, it feels refreshing to say the least.
