Clip From 2/23/24 GachaCast featuring Tectone talking to MrPokke Sweetily GachaSmack Brax Fobm4ster Rexlent about other Gacha games like Honkai star rail having character skins. 𝗧𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗖𝗛 | twitch.tv/tectone subscrob ty bros
@@zamirroa if you only started a few weeks ago then thats impressive ive been trying to learn another language for a few years and still only know a few phrases lol. i am a slow learner apparently.
when rexlent bring out PGR skin into the podcast it definitely changes the whole narrative about character design .. ALPHA , VERA even without skin is DOPE
In pgr, there Paid skin Skin from daily login event Skin from an event Exchange dorm coint to get Skin from shop Skin selector box from certain event You can get skin even if you are ftp 👍🏻✨✨ Same goes for free 5 star and 6 star character in pgr. There a new update new character Lucia - Crimson weave that also give free 6 star character selector box from an event 😍
Should i play pgr? I just played snowbreak week ago. Or maybe i should wait wuthering wave, i already had 2 gacha and i dont have time for snowbreak tbh😂
@@shaka2tuIts a decent third game. You can forego doing much of the events. You can just spam weeklies and guarantee 5k-7k per month. One ten pull is 2500. Alot more content will give you more pulls but if you dont have the time just spam the main game modes, warzone and phantom pain cage.
Many genshit players don't know, why these skins ( coating) are paid / why they are good ! These skins have different ideal animations, voice lines , background , weapon skin And most importantly Pgr / hi3 skins have different effect colors ( genshin skins are so bad and costly, yet dumb players still buy them )
Are genshin skins that bad?Like they don't change the animation or anything? Man, the more I read about other's experience with Genshin, the more I'm glad I never played it and started my gacha with PGR, and more and more I start to understand why people praise Kuro's generosity so much.
@@ZETxZ4Only 1 Skin with different skill/sound effect is its diluc 5* skin, they change the color to fire orange to dark orange. The sound effect is satisfying but thats it. PGR skins change everything most of the time.
Not every skin has the effects change, weapon skins, backgrounds and voice lines, ESPECIALLY the background and voice lines cause those are exclusive to 17.5k BC skins (there are only 2 skins that currently have those and that's Stigmata's skin that's gonna come out in global in the 29th and Lamia's newest skin in CN)
PGR skins are someone else, I love the fact it changes so much not just looks but visuals of skills and so on. I'm surprised game doesn't make more with these banger skins but I suppose most of them are obtainable through bc aswell so there's that. Azure lane and arknights also have bagner skins but it's different genres so skins hit differently when it's on a chibi, top tier arts though.
HI3rd past year skins are mostly a miss NGL. The way they do hair is so weird it looks awkward most of the time, would've been great to see at least changes on them rather than just slap add ons. PGR's skins look naturally pleasing but over the top, Honkai's just looks over the top.
Hi3 skins are so amazing. Honestly if genshin copied the idea of just putting skins for the gist of it they would make so much money. But Genshin could never
Problem with genshin there's an event and lore behind each skins they can't put out that many and overexagerate the design. But yeah genshin could never 😂
@@telensatsuki6817except the lore barely matters and it’s not like they need to make the skin have lore. I’d say the bigger issue is they can’t design honkai effects lvl skins because the game is open world so it limits their design space Not to mention most skins are going to be on characters who will only be seen in combat once every 30 seconds at best
@@prisciliaflora That's subjective, I just dislike the fact that the older ones are harder to farm for some reason, and some of those are really good, altho they're for off meta characters so it would be a pain to waste get them instead of ones for characters that I'll actually use... If I was into vampires I would get Hyperreal Lee's skin.
Ah. I Remember the old hi3 back in the day. They gave out some nice swimsuits for a lot of characters for free except for Theresa. Also Snowbreak also creates a lot of skins for their characters mostly paid.
JUST PUTTING IT HERE, I am not a white knight, I love PGR and HSR its my two main games, but I need to put it here, because PGR deserves its credit. HSR: Hey can I copy your homework? Kuro: ok just dont make it obvious HSR: Releases acheron that is based on Alpha in TOO MANY aspects from PGR that been up for a LONG while You can fight me all you want or disagree, but its undeniable HSR enjoyed design of most badass char of PGR, CW Alpha and they decided to make Raiden Mei more badass after she crossed Universe to HSR and made her more adult with design of a badass that resembles Alpha
To be fair post honkai odyssey Mei already looks very similar to Acheron so you can make the case that they beat out pgr in putting the design it’s just CW popularity is wat really sold it and made them draw more from cw than her APHO
@782 you will have to show me where exactly Mei odyssey looked like CW Alpha or Acheron, because I don't recall anything like it when I played it. Especially when Mei was in her classy clothes and thights. Mind elaborating? Edit: Acheron Ultimate, makes her change colors to white and red, it's related to lore and will be explained, it doesn't narrow it down either to you? Mei had Katana too yeah, but not that long as CW, both sheathed behind too. Alpha has different color eye, Mei hides her eye (Nothing is wrong with it probably, but just saying) Shorts/Bra, they are both different than one another between two chars, but the rule is the same, Coat? they are different, however the combo with bra/shorts + Coat is way too odd to be coincidence, especially when something like that I don't recall from Hi3 at all, both are lightning element. Mei was first, correct. Mei had similar patterns to Alpha however I don't remember her breaking space/cracking it with her sword, as much as Alpha does, both phys and CW. Acheron has it now too in HSR. Don't get me wrong, I love it both, I both have SSS+ CW and her pet, while I will have E6S5 Acheron and she will be perfect day 1 since I prefarmed, I even spend extra thousands to max out Sparkle and Swan so they can benefit Acheron boosting/synergy even further, including Fu Xuan bonuses for Crit Rate and Cdmg. I am not about HSR copying CW or liking it so much that they borrowed/based Alpha's concept. I love it, but the credits rightfully should be going to CW/Kuro, not Acheron/HSR if anything
@@amari7782 Well yeah I get that, but I still disagree, Meh in hi3 is the same Mei in HSR (Acheron) she traveled like Welt did. but that aside, Acheron is closer to Mei, Herscher of Origin, not Odyssey Mei if we are going to be more precise, HoO into HSR's CW, based on CW from PGR. Unless you will show me the artwork/image somewhere, about what you are talking about because I can't imagine the similarity between Odyssey Mei/Acheron vs CW PGR, until its CW Alpha -> Acheron xD I need you to elaborate/show me
@@not8761Now where did you get the information that Mei also travelled to HSR’s universe like Welt did? And if you are saying this with confidence, where have you seen Mei in HSR? (Not accounting Acheron)🤔
kuro knows what players want its why they made char designs more sexy and with some characters buffed their chest also showed more skin. unlike hoyo kuro only censors the cn server because they have to while with global they leave everything uncensored as it was intended to be viewed
i still think hoyoverse staged that event how do they let a person just waltz in past the reception and/or security it doesnt make sense if they were threaten so much they should have had security
Can someone for the love of god correct the other guy for calling my glorious queen alpha a copy of achron(yes alpha is superior to acharon in every way)
@@amari7782 bruh kuro games not as big as hoyo but they already has a ton of skin from release till now... You know there's so many fanart out there with their own taste style... 10 months should be enough for artist to create more skin either the artist is contract with hoyo or independent... What you said is doesn't make any sense
@@hito-sama yea but again it’s not like turn based games come out throwing skins all that often hell we can see them alluding to it with march so not sure why people are bitching. Also so wat bout fan art every game will have more fan art of characters in different costumes than skins
as someone who live in a middle-income country, it saddens me that i couldnt get the Alpha skin. $50 equals to 250 of my country's currency. I have the money to pay but it makes re-think my financial decision whether its worth it or not.
Well I you rather have that than have 50/50 on character banners with low rewards but affordable skins. Atleast we can guarantee on getting the latest character
@@CoFF3e_Man I mean it really isn't though. I've never understood the whole "pgr is more F2P friendly" argument. As someone who plays both, I get that PGR is great with the S rank selectors and they sometimes have banners where you're guaranteed the character you want. However, I feel like this is balanced out by the crazy amount of currency you need for a 10 pull and how the rates work. Playing genshin and HSR there have been plenty of times where I scored a 5 star well before I hit pity, but I don't think I've EVER had it happen in PGR. I always have to hit pity to get an S rank. Imo, 1600 primos/star gems for a 90 pity 50/50, kinda balances out against 2500 bc for a 60 pity S rank.
@@pulpjedaii I would kindly disagree on that...the numbers of Currency you need to roll doesn't equate to Small=good, many=Not good, it depends on how many currencies you can get each patch (events, dailies, weeklies, maintenance). I don't know about HSR's Currency rate per patch but I don't know the accurate estimation about Genshin's even though I played that game last year...but on PGR the ammount of currency you will get each patch ranges from 7.5k~11k (Weeklies, dailies, Events, maintenance...not including story chapter 1st clear rewards, Norman, Stronghold, and cursed waves) , but S rank(5*) characters doesn't release by patch, there is what we call "rest patch" where after an S rank character banner, it will be followed by a featured new A rank (4*) character in that patch, which btw you can get by using standard currency on the standard banner, so that will be another 7.5k~11k on that patch ...so when the following new S rank comes up you can guarantee on pulling for that character and their sig weapons/CUBS (both Sig and CUBS if you are lucky) if you know how to manage your black cards. Let's add 5* selector every half anniversary, Holiday gifts (which usually are 10 pulls worth of currency) to that equation... Also you can basically SSS+ every A rank because you van just auto farm their dupes in exchange of serums (stamina) which they usually gives you 3 serum bundle a day (Each surem bundle consists of 60 serums which can get you 2 dupes of any A rank you already have)...and one of their endgame, which is PPC, can make your S rank go up to SS rank from the PPC shop where they sell dupes in exchange for the rewards you will get on that gamemmode, and some to SS3-SSS due to their buyable by using vouchers (which you can get from the battlepass and events) and currently one character from the Dorm Shop... To be clear, on pity rate alone, PGR already wins sitting on a 100% guarantee every new character and 80/20 on rerun banners with 60 pull pity, 80/20 on Weapon banner with 30 pull pity and 100% on CUBS with 20 pull pity, compared to Hsr and genshin's 50/50. To be honest you are just plain lucky because their pull rate differentiates only by 0.1%, pgr on 0.5% and hsr/GI on 0.6%....Luck is not a basis of F2P, FGO has 1.8℅ rate up but we still will waste 300+ rolls just to get that one character and we sometimes even never get that character. So you really just got lucky mate. Edit: Sorry If that came out rude, I'm just putting my 2 cents here. I hope you understand now why we call PGR one of the most F2P games.
@@elly9513 those grindable skins are mid. Some of them look good but have no effects,some of them have good effects but the skin itself is lackluster.(imo) Want more gacha skins tbh. At least I can grind for them. The good ones for example,lamia's skin,alpha's skin,balter's skin etc. are all paid . You can't farm for that.
@@Hazel564 yes but are they really comparable to the paid ones? Alpha and vera's paid skins smokes all of them grindables and free skins and it's not even close. I just wish they give grindable skins 'on that level'. Take arknights for example,their skins are mostly grindable and they are better than those paid ones. And the devs still earn money after all that.
