Can anyone confirm or correct me that the canceled single player gameplay is going to be the XCOM2 style turn base strategy but instead of dude or girl in hi-tech armor, you get the girl in skimpy hi-tech armor instead.
Yeah, that's along the lines of what I remember reading about the supposed single player mode.
also can anyone explain why the developer choose to go the multiplayer gacha route?, all I can think about this route is that if the roll rate is very shitty, people is going to abandon it really quickly not to mention the recurring cost of renting the server and stuff.
Same reason every publisher wants always-online lootbox games: to keep you hostage with FOMO and maximize the chance you'll roll that credit card when the frustration of the grind and shitty RNG finally gets the better of you.
Does the developer really study about survivability of gacha game?, even some anime style gacha game from Japan can only survive like 1 or 2 years if it does not have any attractive content unless dude get like sultan tier whale(s) to keep the game running.
Probably not. Nobody else does, really. They just throw shit on the wall and hopes something sticks, then milk it for all the players are worth until it's no longer profitable, then throw it away. Can't play the game you paid for anymore? That's too bad, this business model was never about being consumer-friendly.
