      I actually posted a separate comment before seeing other people talking about the costume gacha, but what I haven't seen anyone talk about is the fact that you're guaranteed to get the costume "eventually". There's a reward list, and each time you pull something other than the costume you want that reward gets removed from the list. So if you're REALLY wanting a costume (and don't mind spending $70-$80 if you keep failing to pull it) you will eventually have a 100% chance to get the costume once you've received all other possible rewards on the list.

    As many Nikke Enjoyers have said, came for the booba, stayed for the story. Solid and hilarious review of the game. I picked up Nikke on a whim during the chainsaw man collab figuring I'd drop it in a few days like I have other gacha games, but between the story and actually needing to strategize at times to push through content I'm finding myself enjoying this game way more than I expected. The music is fire, the waifus cover all the tropes to the point that they even give you Crow to hate, the story while not perfect is pretty good and the devs listen. Doesn't hurt that the game is pretty generous to f2p players if you make good use of resources. And the Mid Hood thing aside (she's getting buffed!) the anniversary event has been as good as Over Zone if not better depending on what you think about the mini game which is all I wanted out of the event.

    3:00 I would say that "Corruption" is the disease for Nikkes, but the effects feel more like a Khorne Possession, imagine if there is a Rapture-fication where Nikkes gets corrupted but their bodies warp and mutate turning into those like half organic Raptures like Chatterbox, Blacksmith, Ultra Z.E.U.S and The Collector, and considering how the Red Hood Event, they describe of finding a failed Nikke-Rapture Fusion Amalgamate.
    Anyways overall good review, loved the humour and editing, keep it up

    Nikke has genuinely become the go to gacha game for me. I've had times where I've either put down the one for a few weeks like FGO and PGR or I've slowed down my playtime like with Genshin or Honkai despite being a Mihoyo bootlicker. But I literally never remember a time where I didn't want to play Nikke. I love the general gameplay, and the characters and setting have incredible charm and effort put into them. Also helps that Shift Up has been pretty great at listening to their playerbase. They've made plenty of QOL adjustments to the game since it first came out, and even recently decided to buff Red Hood, a character people were anticipating for a literal year after the last minute nerf. I mean, you have to commend that they bothered remove Makima's coat after all the chaos it caused in the fanbase.

      Now Makima's coat is an insane story. During the CSM collab, it was released that Makima's coat would cover up her trunk. Considering that not only was Nikke advertised with big bums and but the internet was obsessed with Makima's ass, a lot of fans who hate when coats and hair block the view weren't happy. It gotten so bad that Shift Up made an update that removed her coat. I'll admit, it was really funny seeing the whole thing unfold.

      @@ENORELXD2 Well Nikke is built around being able to play through short bursts, while FGO is much more focused around grinding for hours to get through the game. It's why back-to-back events for that game can be so exhausting because you're expected to but way more time into FGO events than most of gacha games' events. It's even more painful because those events can hold pretty cool welfare servants, and one of the worst feeling you can have playing FGO is missing out on one of those welfare servants because you either missed the event entirely, or didn't grind enough to finish the event story.

    As someone who had been playing since the first month and stopped recently (and came back for the anniversary), I'd say the biggest issue is the artificial difficulty wall which is basically just time-gating most progression until you've raised your Nikkes enough. They barely even give you a chance to overcome that with strategy, since handicap your team for being unleveled.

    It's interesting how Nikke makes you work for your rewards, but is quite generous if you can endure the daily grind. The developers did a similar thing with the original release of their previous game, DESTINY CHILD, back when it was only available in korean. The handouts were so ridiculous that a casual collector could comfortably get every single unit in the game and still have loads of resource to spare without paying a single dollar (before I quit the game, I was regularly above 100k crystals, when a 10-pull was only 2.8k, and the pull rates were as high as Nikke's). Eventually, an event was introduced that would cater to new players with entry-level missions, and in exchange provide maxed-out units for free, no strings attached.
    The crux was that the powercreep was so intense that you were forced to pull for any new units to get through event challenges, and you'd have no business stepping even one foot into the whale-infested waters of the PVPsea, unless you decided to empty your pockets, your inheritance, and most of your free time buying recources, managing limited inventory, and upgrading every unit separately - twice.

      @@thomgizziz Unless you're an unlucky fella the gacha is generous. And there's barely any time wasted since you play like an hour a day for dailies.

    While I was living in Japan, Nikke had medium sized pillows at the arcades with one side of a girl with a gun and the other side with a full ass shot of the character.
    Nikke def knows its player base when it comes to their merch

    Obligatory genshin dunking when you play like atleast half of the other gachas that are also towards the top.
    PSA it’s not just genshin the other hoyo games are fairly similar HSR gives a bit more, I still wouldn’t call it a lot, and zenless their newest game feels like genshin in terms of pulls.

    Just wanna thank Scarlet for being the second SSR I ever rolled in this game before I knew anything about how rare and good she is. The carry of a lifetime

    Whenever I saw Nikke stuff I thought it was just another coomer gacha (that ad of the guy in the party was obnoxious, so obnoxious that I even felt a bit tempted to check because of so freaking obnoxious that was, of why a game has such a horrible ad (so I guess the ad worked), but I really realized I don't want to be that guy). Now I'm really glad I watched this video, because, in spite of that, it's still a game that devs put a lot of effort and it's generous in its gacha - the plot surprised me; due to the vast amount of characters, there will be at least one that will call your attention (Anis is best waifu). But, in the end of the day, it's still a coomer gacha, can't deny that and that's what you're getting and...after Azur Lane, no, I don't want that.

    Hello,
    You convinced me to try the game. The story is an easy 9/10 for my taste. The gameplay for killing bosses is great. Got really lucky with anniversary event and got four copies of Red Hood who is hard carrying, and I managed to get 4 stars of Snow White Innocent days.
    My sole complaint is that I'm too weak to keep playing the story when I want more.

      Always happy to hear about new players warming up to the game.
      Sadly it's a complaint most lore enjoyers have felt. I've been there myself.
      If it helps, It will take some time but eventually you get used to the slower pace. If you get up to date with the story you'll be able to blast through the next chapters when they release them as you accumulate power.
      Congrats on red hood, you won the lottery! :) Have fun out there fellow cummander. o7
