    As someone that played TOF I can tell you that it & WuWa are no where near. TOF was bas because it was all over the place & didn't what it wanted to be meanwhile WuWA has a clear goal in mind that it wants achieve, which is Open World game with fast paced action combat.

    Tower of Fantasy was indeed an "indie" game developed by a small 30 person team. After such hugely successful launch they then upscaled to 300+ staff. Then you see the quality overall improve from 2.0 and then even more to 3.0. It's definitely a note-worthy success story regardless of how it was perceived by most people.

      the thing is you kinda only get one chance for a first impression. i played all hoyo games since 2014 with the first honkai game, then honkai3rd, genshin,star rail and also punishing grey raven (form kuro makers of wuwa), and ToF.
      and while I have to say honkai impact 3rd has the best history I have seen in a gacha game by far (it kinda cheats because to get the full thing you need to also read 3 10hour each visual novels and 200 chapters of manga on top of the 80h game history .) also has the big big advantage of being a few characters history with no self insert protagonist. so the MC of that game is not the player but just another character and the player watches the history but is not a part of it in any way, much more like watching an anime than playing a game really.
      gameplay wise previous Kuro games punishing grey raven clears all mihoyo games and ToF by a mile. is simply the best action combat we had in gacha so far.
      now in character design I sadly still have to give it to mihoyo. and I like genshin the least of any of their game, in fact I played 3 other of their games way more than genshin. all 3 honkai games have stellar character design. they really now how to make waifus and husbands people will wanna pull. even if they suck ingame people will still pull them.
      ToF doesn't shine more than mihoyo or kuro in any way, I agree is not a bad game. but the problem is that most people only play 1 or 2 gacha games. and is a crowded market.
      ToF at launch felt like a weird mix between several honkai impact 3rd and genshin features. but with a way more predatory monetization.
      ToF is just a good game but is being compared to better games. cant compete with honkai in history, cant compete punishing grey raven on gameplay and can compete with genshin of zelda like exploration feeling.

      @@lucaskp16 Interesting to see someone mention the character designs here as well, which is something I've seen a lot hidden everywhere when people talk about WuWa, PGR and ToF. I felt the same and it's pretty crazy, since that seems to be pretty much the only reason why I don't really feel super excited about it. I might try it later when more characters are out, but rn I'm exclusively interested in the gameplay and nothing else, but that's not enough when there are so many other cool games out there.
      I dislike Genshin gameplay, but apparently manly players enjoy the characters and casual Visual Novel stuff a lot. Probably because lots of them love anime as well and play on their phones, so hard long dark souls battles can be tedious when the average gamer plays the game for 10 minutes on the way to their job. Husbando/Waifu game is strong and I'm a victim of this as well lmao. But that's just gacha I guess, people pull for fun.
      I hope WuWa comes up with some better character designs in the future, right now I saw way too many girls with black outfits and black hair

    Tof never marketed themselves as the genshin killer. They actually sued the guy for coining it cause it was not their goal to be like genshin.

Please be an active player in the game if u are going to make a fair assessment between games. Many active tof players will call you out and as I'm currently playing wuwa and tof now, I can tell u wuwa is nothing like tof. Tof is still better but I'm willing to wait for wuwa to develop further but I keep falling asleep from the storyline. Tof was never as boring during its start and didn't make me sit through hours of endless stories that's makes me want to die of boredom but we'll see....as a combat driven player I can tell u combat is still way more fun in tof than wuwa

      The last time I played TOF when it had the Evangelion event. Everything was so boring and not fun in all honesty. The characters seem dry unless you DIG into the story very far. The main plot is boring whatsoever, but you have to do it to unlock more worlds and stuff. And I have no idea what you're yapping about TOF combat system, it sucks. In Wuwa, you can beat the highest level boss with lvl 60 character with just enough skills, but in ToF it feels like smashing button and hoping that you will do enough damage.

    I never encountered big bugs or hack.
    I don't care about pvp.
    I don't find the gearing system to be bad, its pretty simple and somehow equivalent of previous MMO i have played. Basically focusing on stats that favorise your archtype.
    And i don't see the endless tower as the endgame but more as a filler when nothing to do and grind for mats. For me the endgame is the coop in donjon and raids and fun with people on the open world.
    But in the end i mostly play it for collecting Waifus and doing some fun exploration without having to read endless text repeated 3 times by an annoying voice.
    Now with Wuwa coming i can try a new open world, it seems pretty good and i expect to have fun, if not then i'll stop playing it.

    My only big issue with it is that the character designs are very... mid? Not a hoyo shill, but whoever designs Genshin and Star Rail characters is a genius. Mona, Nahida, Raiden Shogun, Kafka etc. are immensely popular and it's easy to see why. The gameplay looks cool, but idk, I don't really feel the urge to play it right now since the characters can't catch me at all. It shouldn't be a problem and it might just be a more "gritty" style, but average woman with black hair and black clothes makes me snooze. :/ ToF was pretty much the same, I got the feeling that most of their designs came from an AI.
    It looks really interesting, might try it after a few months. Another maybe-issue might be the difficulty and gameplay, iirc people are a bit fed up with exploration in Genshin, next region according to leaks won't have too much annoying stuff anymore, most players are casuals playing for a few minutes on their phones so long and hard action boss battles could end up being a bit problematic. That's why I switched to Star Rail which is much more friendly in its loading times, storage usage and quick dailies. I hope it'll turn out well, but I'm kinda scared considering that PGR and HI3 are not THAT mega popular anymore for understandable reasons

    what people who compares wuwa with tof dont see is that kurogames is doing exactly the same thing "mihoyo" did to elevate themselves to the world stage. they both had good action rpg before delving their hands into open world stuff. kuro has pgr which is good for me personally. and hoyo had hi3 before genshin. and about people saying the world in wuwa looks bland, do they even understand the atmosphere difference. wuwa is going for a more dark route while genshin had that vibrant feel to it. a much needed escape for people struggling with the pandemic. they released at a very opportune time. and for people who say wuwa is tof 2.0, do they even know the difference of genres. tof is mmorpg. wuwa is not mmo. its pgr but open world. i just hope kuro doesnt become as much predatory as hoyo has become these days. pgr had 100% rate ups for debut characters. and you could get the weapon anytime since its not time limited. in wuwa character banner will be same as hoyo games but weapon banner 100% so basically reverse of pgr. anyway in the end, speculations are just speculations. when time passes and it doesnt get popular, they'll still have the pgr fanbase playing wuwa

    The PVP and Bygone Phantasm were mid-to-bad at best. But, World Bosses, Raids, Wormhole, Frontier Clash, Void Rifts, Void Abyss, Claire's Dream Machine, Artificial Island, Joint Operations, Dimensional Battles, Grayspace Fissures were all endgame modes and were widely enjoyed. I'd certainly say they are superior to anything that appears in Genshin (artifact farming, bosses, and gathering).
    The exploration was fantastic also. The timed items was absolutely a mistake like you said, but it shouldn't overshadow how much they got right about making exploration fun: surf boards, motorcycles, creating pillars, jet packs, etc. I just wouldn't want to leave the impression that exploration in Genshin is in any way superior just because of the timed boxes. Genshin exploration is so painfully boring I haven't been able to do any since Inazuma. I would literally rather do my day job and spend the $20 per patch, than climb one more mountain.
    That's the overall point, I'm not defending Hotta or ToF. I'm frustrated with Hotta because they left a stench on their ideas such that people will likely not imitate them. I would love to see Kuro, or Hoyoverse or any veteran developer, copy all of ToF's ideas and actually polish the execution because that game would be incredible.
    A side point, though. Again, great video and I agree that WuWa will not have the same glaring issues ToF had, certainly not to the game-breaking extent it did.

      Definitely something I could have addressed more - MANY aspects of ToF were fantastic and a complete upgrade over Genshin, but it became so hard to deal with the game's other systems that many of these gems were ignored.
      The main improvement in my eyes from ToF over Genshin was definitely the exploration, and the fact that Kuro has heavily pushed for high speed in exploration has me believing that they may take more of the 'good' from ToF in future additions to the game.

      And, yes, they hinted at riding the birds in the cinematic and of course the bike boss, so let's hope they follow through and really make exploration nearly as entertaining as the combat.

    As someone who started day 1 and still plays Tower of Fantasy it has improved a lot, I admit I don't play as often as I used to not because the game is bad but because the people I had fun with quit to go play Palworlds or Lego Fortnite and whatever else was new at the time and it's just not as fun without them but atm were all playing Wuthering Waves together.
    Each gacha game has its pros and cons like I like Genshin Impact for the story but then I prefer Tower of Fantasy when it comes to actual gameplay like there's always something to do on Tower of Fantasy and between the mounts, grapple, wall running boots gadget, etc it's miles ahead of Genshin when it comes to exploring. I've been loving Wuthering Waves too because it feels kinda like a mix of both games into 1 and the movement is so smooth when your climbing and the combat is amazing. I play on both PC and Mobile and I don't have any issues with Wuthering Waves currently other than it logging me out of my account when I close the game on PC but that's a known issue. I did notice they cussed in one of the conversations and said the "B" word but I found that to be more comical than an issue.
    Overall I plan on playing Tower of Fantasy, Wuthering Waves, Genshin, Star Rail, and Zenless whenever it comes out like just because a new game comes out doesn't mean I'm going to quit all the others but that does become quite time consuming so I will certainly play some of them less and less to balance out my time but imo between all of those Wuthering Waves and Star Rail will be what I spend the most time on. For the longest time Genshin is surprisingly what I play the least and then with Tower of Fantasy I'm just kinda chilling til 4.0 comes out but it's what I was playing the most up until a few months ago when I got Mononucleosis and I've been playing all video games less since I just don't have the energy anymore.

    2. Character Customization
    3. Mount
    4. Better map (Open World Exploration)
    But the again that's it...
    If they polised the fluiditiness I and Story I think ToF is much solid than the two Gatcha game in my Opinion.

    • @lionelmarcussolaris2858
      @lionelmarcussolaris2858 Місяць тому +1

      Really? Coz for me, there are some characters I can say almost have the same face but maybe I'm just nitpicky. The most comparable is Childe and Thoma. People even thought Thoma was a Childe clone at first because of how similar they look. Another is Eula and Arlecchino. In fact, most of the women also kind of have the same face, just that Hoyo did well in giving them huge differences and hid them well. I'm honestly biased towards Genshin's design but I will also be honest that they also have the same face syndrome hidden by good design and visual clarity, you almost won't see it if you didn't look enough (mostly because of resinless behavior).
      I also suspect the reason why you don't really connect with WuWa's design is because you are used to Hoyoverse's designs, which honestly I also have biases towards. The only WuWa character I like design wise is Lingyang coz he looks closest to Hoyo's design. I would also argue Verina and Encore can fit in Genshin or HSR. Male Rover is even argued by many to look so similar to Caelus and Dan Heng. It's probably just the Adults being off-putting because they do look and feel more older than Genshin's.

    tof was ok, its problem: its like super hard to play and progress thru things, u need like a whale to carry you thru the hard grinding stuff to farm for powerful gear to just tackle the new region stuff. i think i didnt upgrade my wrld lvl cuz i didnt want to have to spend so much time just to fight mob enemies and theyre still kinda strong. if they reigned in the difficulty and reliance on other players who'll usually need to be stronger than u, i might still be playing it. (edit: suffers from power creep. power creep isnt an issue as long as weak units can still reasonably complete and strong units still have a bit of challenge; aka keeping some balance in mind. tof doesnt have this)
    the problem with gi is it was never fully realized from the beginning, it had a bright future but they squandered it, prolly do to its lucky well timed release and success, it is stale, mostly boring, combat is un evolving, they shy away from combat being more complex cuz of normies, and has an interesting ok story thats painful and boring to play thru.
    all of these games are gacha so hardly worth considering them "video games." wuwa is just another addition to the collection. i personally stay away from hype and news, just forget about it and lo its already here, wow that was fast. ill try it until azur promilia or whatever, gacha palworld lol, hoping its as lewd and monetized like azur lane. daily missions giving pulls, yes plural. decent to good rates while still having pity, yo imagine that. the mechanic is already trash, we dont do trade offs. and, as of recent in terms of the games run time, so much oil i hardly know wut to do with it all. gacha stamina systems need to die tho.
    if i can pull myself together, i would make a waifu gacha game like these, but run like helldivers 2. frick esrb, and i would make any type of char from traps, lolies, eldritch abominations, to frick it maybe even... bara🤢. the only things that will be hard paid locked would prolly be any super lewd stuff like skins, just as a barrier for younger audiences if any.
