Nikke; An Underrated Game, You Should Play

Nik this video is probably getting demonetized just because of red hood I know a lot of individuals only think of the specific assets of characters when they look at this game or even discuss it but hey I play it and while I may have some different taste than what I think people expect or at least most individuals who play this game considering my favorites are epnl and solely into individuals who don't have a skin yet because my God I would pay for it immediately if they had one but no I do still like the game and if reverse 1999 gets a video so to wonik first and foremost the gotcha because honestly speaking that's what a lot of you want to know about it's I think one of the most prevalent aspects when it comes to aacha game in general is a 1.5 anniversary character she's on Banner here you then have the standard one which nobody really should ever use the benefit of standard I suppose is that you can wish list but you shouldn't ever be spending your actual gems on it just wait for the standard recruitment vouchers and then friendship ones which you collude over time you can collect them realistically though you can't wish the anybody so it's a rare chance for you to get somebody you actively want but hey it's nice to have but what about the shop how valuable is it well they give you one pack for free whenever they add or change the stepup package but beyond that the shop is an iffy thing the benefit of these gold high quality modes is that they can essentially for the most part will try to give you an SSR sometimes though as you see here you might just get an Sr and that feels really bad so I don't put much value Within These within the shop itself the polls are are nice and so are the gems but keep in mind that if you're looking into whing at any point in time in the future there is a specific Banner that only wants you use pay gems and as usually hear these count as free gems so the downside is these or buying these packs don't necessarily guarantee you have the PO to do so You' have to buy one of these or multiple packages of the 30-day Supply beyond that though you can purchase skins there are only a small selection of them here because the vast majority of them are hidden behind the mission pass and so the is a chance that you might have missed a skin for a character you potentially really liked which of course is a downside a secondary downside of the monetization is costume gotcha my God it is awful as of right now there's the Maran skin and the crown skin and the downside is you're not using your gems which may seem like an upside Until you realize that you have to purchase it separately in a different separate shop and as you can see here there are two different currencies these aren't interchangeable there's one currency for the crown skin one currency for the Maran skin the Madia skin I don't know why I said Maring now off the rip this may seem beneficial if you hypothetically only want SK one skin but you really can't get the skin until after you do a certain number of PS specifically five previously this was a little bit worse but they've given you more free tickets it just doesn't mean anything because as you see here I need four the only way to get four would be to specifically buy either the four pack or the six-pack if I buy the sixpack I need to buy it again in order to get four more to do the next pull so it sucks in all honesty I don't recommend ever going on a costume gotcha because on the off chant you get something nice because yeah there are nice things some poles here these which are required to overload a individual piece of gear is nice and these are iffy because you can't individually choose and so the only thing that's vaguely worthwhile is either going to be a 10 pole on standard or a 10 pull on the limited Banner or the rate up banner and the costume itself and this can heavily depend on if you legitimately like the costume either way costume got just the worst aspect but the best aspect in my opinion isn't necessarily the gotcha even though that's not too bad it's the fact that the the characters themselves have personalities whatever character you like all of these Nik have relationship stories now of course you don't really have advisements for the individual collab runs but that's just a downside of it being a collab character as mentioned before I adore characters like soene epanel pully even novelist cutes ad me is adorable and so is leader and lapas and any of these characters I can individually go through and do a episode of the relationship story and these are quite nice especially the ending ones now some of my opinion are better than others but the fact that you can do these and in some cases you can just outright max out their relationship or Bond level strictly by giving them gifts is nice I do think that for me personally these specific stories on the characters has made me enjoy them a lot more because otherwise I don't think I would have I wouldn't have like lapas if her story wasn't good and she's a great character within the context of the main campaign and so as you see here I have a bunch of characters many of them who I've ranked up strictly because the designs are cute and I can honestly say that pretty much all of these characters I legitimately liked the English vas are great except for kilo my God I don't know what happened I do not like kilo's English VA I play in JP specifically when I want to do kilo's relationship story but whatever ignoring that all of them are surprisingly good and has made me enjoy a lot of characters where I otherwise wouldn't have now I do still have more I want to comb through but nonetheless I can comfortably say I actually recommend it on the strict notion that these characters have cute designs and extremely cute relationship stories I want to do mirandas but I understand characterization is a big part of pretty much any Goa and so two aspects that really come down to it for a lot of individuals is how is the gameplay itself and subsequently the main story and what about your Daily Grind campaign is a series of smaller missions here and there you fight monsters you move forward now depending on the stage you can AC just quick battle in most circumstances you're quick battling the non significant enemies because you're not getting any dialogue anyway I like that as long as you're high enough power level you can essentially avoid having to watch a bit of mundane combat that you don't really care about because you can Auto through some of the easier section and so it does just involve your chibies running around which is quite cute and you can find little Collectibles they are quite hard to see sometimes but you can still find them the main campaign itself is quite nice I found myself enjoying it not necessarily just because hey there are characters I like on screen because some of the characters I like don't really get featured within the main story or at least not until later on but mostly because it's legitimately nice interesting story I do think this start is a little bit slow depending on if you like the introduction but regardless I've actually enjoyed my time with it the events they're incredibly nice as of right now we have the last Kingdom going on and depending on when you're watching this this may still be here it may not be but there's an entire miname that you can love or hate there's a login bonus if you like that there's an entire shop I'd actually say this is quite nice I will say that the mini games are Hit or Miss sometimes it'll be really great sometimes it'll be God awful and this can depend heavily on the client you're playing on if you're playing on mobile an event sometimes can be really good if you're playing on PC it can be awful take into consideration the platform you're mostly going to be playing on if you're mostly a PC player keep in mind that WTI launcher is good and WTI screen is nice and everything is extremely good on their mini games may be more geared towards expecting you to have it just on the phone I say the shops themselves are nice because you're not essentially grinding for days on end to get the stuff you specifically want you can kind of pick and choose hey maybe I want burst or skill manuals maybe I solely want to go for the PO and you can but I would personally recommend that you get these skill and burst manuals then you can kind of comb through whatever else you need these are extremely valuable as is cor dust but the poles are the most expensive and if you are sacrificing resources you're going to need later on for poles it might not be worth it they've recently added an expansion to the profile section wherein you can customize your banner um it's not the best I'm not going to lie but it's there if you enjoy it you can display your individual characters you can join a union I honestly have joined one but I don't really see the point but the game play itself how is it yes a key Point mentioned is that yes you can Auto pretty much all of it as I'm doing here I'm not playing anything I'm just watching but you can manually play it I do recommend it for any of the solo raides any difficult content you may be trying to do such as simulations or interceptions either way the combat itself is nice I do and will remind you that characters like Madia or any individual even Crown I'd say who can have bursts that essentially affect your screen heavily in Crown's case it's a giant CLE popping up in Mia's case it's her minigun usage can be heavily dependent on the frame rate you're running that so you may have a better time on PC than just going on your phone Min guns particularly perform much better on PC than they do on phone because of that but I can obviously take control at any point in time and get a better consistency with what I'm doing and that can be pass or Fair depending on what you want obviously campaign and certain types of content won't really warrant you doing that so I recommend this strictly on the notion of hey if you're going through a difficult stage or fighting a boss it may be better for you to strictly do this manually especially if it involves targeting weak points and that matters a lot because certain bosses really want their weak points destroyed but I'm not too concerned about this one so I can pretty comfortly just let the game play itself with that being said if the game play is not your Forte if you didn't enjoy it it's perfectly fine I think the strength of n comes from both its characterization and main story whether that be in events or whether that be just through the side stories and episodes you view personally because once again that has made me enjoy significant amount of characters more so than I thought I would but on a secondary note I also think the music and and the designs are nice I don't like a lot of characters from the design wise I think the more sexualize the characters overall appearances the less I'm going to enjoy it but that may be for you I obviously have different tastes but I do and will say that the game play isn't as sort of brained as I originally thought it was going to be I do think there's fun to be had I do think figuring out team compositions is nice I will admit that in some cases depending on the it's like especially if you want to invest into them there isn't as many resources that you can find out there because yeah there are tier list n. GG pridwin has a tier list you can even go on the subar and find the tier list or some information on specific characters like Crown but I think that if you're stepping into the game as a new player you may have a difficult time understanding hey who's meta because you can find a great character realistically you can find situations under which people are going to tell you hey red hood is amazing and yes she is an amazing character as his leader I'm using her here just because she's less likely to get this video demonetized but what you may struggle to understand as a newbie is why they're good in the first place and I do think that is a downside of the game having not necessarily a bad reputation but more of a reputation of it just being an ass game because an ass game can be a good game and ni does have some interesting mechanics but if you're coming in this with the perspective of hey I'm a genjin player or hey I'm an HSR player because those are the two very popular gacha games a lot of these stats won't make sense to you crit rating crit damage don't mean much for many characters and it happen to new entire new mechanics new systems that maybe aren't as well explained to you in other means because it's not like you really have a damn damage formula you can look at in the game itself but I do think that this is a nice game I do think the anniversaries are quite nice the event and what they showcase I just think that depending on what you try to do or what you try to go for and specifically the characters you like you may have trouble finding them in events leader cute I have specific favorites I've enjoyed this game not just because hey the designs are hot and hey the gameplay is nice but more so because is an overall positive experience Crown's Banner has been my worst gacha experience but a point point I want to make on anyone who's concerned about the gotcha itself because yes there is no real guarantee there is a point under which your probability of getting an SSR increases but there is no essential guarantee as hey after 80 or so pulls you're getting this SSR that's rate up instead you have mileage tickets the benefit of mileage tickets is you can save them indefinitely at 200 you can grab the on Banner character whenever you want and so you could decide like I did to look at Crown's Banner or look at a banner and say I'm going to pull and Pull and Pull and pull because I want to save my mileage tickets and you can do that and you can max out and get the first copy or if you get two copies or three copies which would be limit break to of a character you can get the third one but this applies to both rate Up characters which is gold mile tickets and standard characters keep in mind that if you purchase a spare body for a standard Banner character this is not the equivalent to purchasing a character essentially this is a character the squared icon is a character this is a the equivalent to a constellation idolon or just a limit break in game you do not get a character from purchasing these you have to have the character first and that can be a downside depending on who you are I think monetization can be hit or miss if you like costumes if you like outfits it's it's going to be painful for you costume gotcha sucks I do think that the mission pass giving you an outfit is nice I do think that having outfits just purchasable is nice but I do think the price associated with these outfits is a bit much for the in many cases minimal changes they offer like the designs are cool but in many cases you aren't getting ultimate animations you aren't getting full-on design changes with the guns themselves and so it can be iffy as to if you value these especially if you're a collector but that's my opinion you can have an entirely different one I like characters I love epel I want more appreciation for her just like I want it with soene and so I can recommend this game and I've had fun with this game even though the two characters who I enjoy the most aren't featured too often I recommend you at least give it a shot whether that be on PC or on your phone or your TBL doesn't matter I think it's a fine experience but I will say keep in mind that if you don't have knowledge or somebody to guide you going in you may have a difficult time especially because in terms of the content creator space there aren't that many creators covering the game either way this has been a long video I hope You' enjoyed if you have leave a like down below subscribe and hey if you are feeling up to it I play on I believe Global you can add me and either way I will see you next time goodbye
