I hope Shift Up gives us SOMETHING. Thanks for the time stamps and creating content from... not much happening going on right now. You did chose a pretty good topic!
@joshuajefferson3504 Honestly.. yeah. Kind of a shame really and I'm nervous to see what they do going forward with it because I don't know if people would be happy with a release like Indivilia being butchered again
Getting in the top 10% in the Union Raid only gets you like 1/5 of the way toward a dupe of the three normal Nikkes. That is straight up ridiculous. Even if they were the best characters in the game it would be ridiculous. At most, it should take 2 Union Raids to get a dupe. That's still 6 full months before you're able to MLB one of them. And MLB'ing all four of them would still take over 2 full years. And that's without them adding any more heretics to Liberation, like Indivilia. Also, Pilgrims other than Noah need to be available in the Milage Shop.
Cutting the prices in the union shop would make the players that saved and bought the spare bodies angry. The only way you could do it would be to increase the amount of chips Union raid gives out by 2 or 3 times.
@Dimeric oh For sure lmao there would be so much anger. Chips would definitely have to be the way to go but eh. I guess I think about it like T shirts at a store getting discounts. Then again I guess buying a t shirt doesn't take months of endless farming to get so I guess this whole analogy wouldn't work 🤔... yeah stick to the additional chips. I'd be pissed too LMAO Maybe sticking to that would be the better plan eh? Either way though I doubt even that would happen. Would love to see a chip boost though. Kinda crazy top Unions can't even buy a copy of someone for what you get! Too rough
I'm really glad I watched some guides before start spending my currencies. Yeah, most of the shop seems to be beginner traps, plenty of stuff that won't actually improve anything. However, since nikke doesn't have a stamina system nor a weapon improvement system (thank God!) I believe it leaves Shift Up less things to fill the shop with. But I do think you have many valid points. Specially in regards to the Union Shop. Those spare bodies are WAY overpriced. It's just not worth it when you can buy so many upgrades to your cubes with the same currency. Which is sad, when it's the only way to obtain spare bodies for those nikkes. Hopefully they might make some changes based on the feedback.
Hopefully in the future they rework union shop incentives but yeah it's quite unfortunate. Definitely agree they probably don't see an incentive for change but would be nice but eh.. doubt
I feel that the liberation characters need to have their own currency that you can get just by doing dailies, weeklies, and events. cause the frequency of union raids i feel is too little and the amount you get at the end is determined by the ranking your union gets. they could also do something more like what azur lane does with their PR and DR ships for the liberation nikke's so that way you still have to grind to get them but then that way through that process you can get them to their max star lvl and then they can have the spares in the shop to get them to MLP. then that way they can give the characters the boost they need and make them worth working for.
@ShadowAngelS2K From someone who purchased old Skins from mission passes I do not mind and think that would be a great benefit for others who missed other cosmetics that are great. It would probably be 20 bucks and for a costume without the price tag is rough but it's fair in the sense of exclusivity. But companies realize FOMO is a more powerful tool to get money so I highly doubt they would but I'm all for it!
Agree. If I could wish for any 1 change, it would be fixing the molds to guarantee a purple, gold, or manufacturer specific nikke that corresponds to the color of the mold your opening. It's straight up bs that you have to gamble on those when it takes so much time to collect the required fragments. And it's sad to see the community actually defend ShiftDown with this toxic mechanic. Are they doing this right in other areas? Yes. Are they more generous with pull rates than other mobile games? Definitely. But that doesn't mean that some of the mechanics are poorly implemented or straight up predatory. And the argument that many use is oh it's too late to fix it. Uh since when? If fans are saying hey, can you fix this, its better late than never. And for those that have gotten hosed, just give them some fragments or some gems or whatever. Its not like the veterans players dont already have all the nikkes anyway. But it would help put newer players and help retain players. Eversoul is another game that I play and while their pull rates suck, when you get their equivalent of a mold, it guarantees a unit. It may not be what you want or need, but it's something and you can always use the sucky wants to upgrade your other units. But every now and then you get something you want. I was a f2p in that game and now own a copy of every character and because they give out free skins and what not, I've since become a paid player because I now want to level up the characters I like. See how that works? Whereas in nikke, I'm still f2p and have no intentions of spending until they fix some of their systems. And of course release skins for characters I own or use. But 20-60 for 1 skin is wild. But that's a different story. Sorry for the long rant.
I see it different than you because I personally am a Dolphin in this game. I do Not care if they personally r release stuff but I doubt it since FOMO in their eyes is better and that blows
Real talk boo im glad you and sefhi to videos like this is helps keeps it real that there are stuff that does need some work in the game! Sin bros UNITE 😭✊ she is absolutely amazing but your right she isnt really that good :/ i have her 3 core MLB with some investment just for waifu reasons. Shes not TOTALLY useless her burst at the very least gives increased damage taken so she is sorta niche at best maybe similar to novel? Not totally useless but not the best option by far especially for a B2. I agree the spare body shop needs an update that is so annoying we cant get spare bodies wirh pity for basically 50% of the nikke in the game since besides treasure nikke they never update it. Hard agree union shop needs a price cut my momny dragon needs to be more affordable 😭😭
@@ItsBoo. Yeah 😂 she was actually the MLB that pushed me past the 160 wall! She isn't bad especially if your pushing the misilis tower she can be semi useful for bosses not so good for mobs tho. I use her alot because I don't have a lot of leveled misilis units so I need her to help alot
I'd argue guilty is the best of the liberation shop whose worth it especially after the bikini skin *chefs kiss* I agree with a lot of the commenter's here and in the discord I'm in ive had discussions about the shops. I enjoy the take and I have the same hopes you do. Also quick question.... that thumbnail with the ruler.... measuring if the "game" is up to snuff? LoL
@Lenari_Reigh I think ON twitch I used that PNG as like her ready to hit someone with the ruler because it was for my rules but now I use it for Informing but yeah kinda your way now LOL
Yeah general shop and union shop are really something, honestly, they extra expensive specifically union shop, last time union raid just give me 3,4K , what a joke :'v , and as body label shop, maybe they can add the purple gem maybe half price , to so there will be option 😂
God I wish they would just something for body label. And yeah Union is so damn expensive. Even getting 8k at the top of unions is a lot but still can't get a single copy like HUH?
The absurdly expensive, but outdated gear baffles me. An early game player can't afford it, and a late-game player literally has no use for it. What player is gonna buy blue or even purple gear after they've started the grind for manufacturer gear? I finally got my first full clear of gravedigger today, so I've now been able to full-clear every EX Intercept. I barely have a use for regular orange gear at this point. They either need to heavily slash prices to help new players, or just... get rid of it. It's a resource trap to slow down people who don't know better, but with asinine prices like that, I can't imagine who would think "yeah, I should buy that."
The union I only own like 49k of these items so which should I go? Nihister or quency just ask cuz I kind have trouble deciding to choose so yeah if not I’ll just continue saving for more and more that way I have nothing to worry about
i know the shop like the back of my hand so rn im so temped to use my silver tickets since i only need 2 more units till i can break the 160 wall (funny thing is i only been stuck on it for about 2 -3 weeks)
@@ItsBoo. got 370 mileage tickets and i only need 1 spare body of Poli and Drake since i got kilo from the crown event and my luck with dolla and volume where crazy
@majorpayne4913 I honestly recommend getting a dupe of a unit you can now so you won't miss any and go for one you want MLB wallpaper wise might as well! Then once you do those 30 more pulls MLB again and boom nice Job!
It's a lot of sentiment esp for End game. End game IE anything challenge mode we get and Solo Raid. Lots of complaints is actual lack of content. Story is good but I want side modes too
The way they handle the shops is really weird. Like why include rando trash that cost a premium? I know they may be traps for people who don’t pay attention but why even do that at all. Imagine if they sold yellow manufacturer gear you actually like need! Also, no, I will not invest any currency into the Liberation characters. They cost too much and they’re not even good units.
I think you're being too nice lmao. Look I love this game, been playing for about 4 months, im at ch 30-17 my best team being 262,488cp (no red hood sadge). But there are parts of this game that are *shockingly* poor (liberation, overload gear bonus rates, custom modules, doll super chance rates are way too low). The shops are borderline dogshit and with the amount of Nikkes the game has now makes it extremely frustrating trying to overload them all with the dogshit drop rates for custom modules and stingy upgrade materials (other items used for leveling up said items) for items. AND since there are so many Nikkes now, trying to level up all their skills is going to take forever. I do not understand how long time players have dealt with this shit, it is so awful😭😭 And some of these are so easy to fix to alleviate player frustrations too. Whatever announcement is coming better spontaneously combust my balls cause what the fuck man how have you not fixed these *glaring* flaws!??! I love this games story, gameplay and characters but holy shit guys, come on. FIX SHIT I BEG YOU. Rant over xd
@deftend6562 I do not take this rant personally because I am not Shift Up BUT I'm sorry Im in total agreement man I get these frustrations and I have talked about this in so many past videos as well but there is nothing else I can do despite breaking down issues unfortunately. I've made videos on liberation. Tetra being too much and ruining the bad rng system. Bloated Elysion Gear and minimal Tetra with a bad system for modules and not enough skill mats for the Nikkes and stuff like Overclock Ex Sim isn't enough. I truly do get it but I am just doing what I can man..
@@ItsBoo. Yeah I get you. And omg u just reminded me, Why, since abnormal Nikkes barely come out, is there SO much gear dropped for them. I have no abnormal Nikkes and I still get mostly abnormal gear like Shift Up stop fucking me in the ass please😭 Do you know if there is a way we can reach them as a community directly? Like you, I want this game to be better because I love it and I hate simply having to wait and see if they make the right decisions😭
@deftend6562 Honestly reaching through customer support. Also voicing your opinions during times we get Surveys is very important. Plan to do a video regarding it whenever we get a survey as well! Stuff like this needs to be acknowledged badly.
@ItsVenomxx I've noticed that too. I will make sure to do so going forward. In a temporary set up I am getting used to. Apologies for that. will make sure next video the levels are more accurate! Thank you for the feedback
