Lapis Re:LiGHTs and Heaven Burns Red discussion will save /mbgg/

>>37423188
I'm really looking forward to the latter at least

>>37423188
For one week at least. After everyone's done rerolling then we'll be dead again.

Play her game.

If you could only pick one, between Revived Witch and Blue Archive, which one would you pick to start today? Please, explain why too.

Friends told me that it's good to start gachas close to the server launch, because of events and etc, so I searched for recent gacha games and those two are the ones that I liked the most.

I only play Lost Word, never played any other gacha/mobage before, and I really liked the experience! But I'm in that point where you clean everything in 10 min and either farm one stage for 1 hour or you come back tomorrow and repeat.
I understand that this is something that happens in all mobages, at least that's what my friends told me, so I decided to start a new one, and start another one after this new one come to the 10 min point.

Thanks in advance :)

>>37430226
Play both for a week or two and judge yourself, only you know what you find fun. Picking things up just because is a good way to become like the average /vg/-tier drone who plays 10 different things and enjoys none.
From a subjective angle, I played Revived Witch back when it was in beta in China and it was all looks and no substance. The aesthetic was amazing but it quickly lost it's appeal when the gameplay was just clicking auto in battle or meandering through boring dungeons. The gacha was also AIDS, but maybe they're more generous in a launch state, stranger things have happened.

>>37430226
Blue Archive is one of the most generic and bland kusoges I've ever played, so not that one.

I will not play your games

>>37430387
You're right, I should try it myself.
I asked just in case a lot of people say something like "avoid x company at all costs" or "x has absurdly low rates" and etc, but these are things that I can learn by myself. Thanks, anon!

>>37431929
I don't know of other games to compare, but I believe you, anon. I'll try it for one week, because for unknown reasons I liked Lost Word, the simplest game I've played in my life. Maybe I have shit taste for mobages. Thanks, anon!

Looks like dancer dresses are coming to Manasis, if anyone's still playing that.
As far as I know, no word on when or where they'll come from, though.
I'm hoping they'll be from event grinding like the halloween one, and not some cash shop only thing.

>>37430226
I haven't really been interested in either, myself. But I agree with >>37430387, best way to answer "should I play" questions is always to just try it for yourself for a bit.
Sometimes something is a total kusoge but happens to hit all the right notes for you, and sometimes the big popular game that everyone's talking about doesn't suit your tastes after all.

>>37433148
They gave away very cute Halloween Jill, so the dancer should be the same.

>>37433148
>>37433195
Bros how pass quest

>>37434107
Wait for more story updates

>>37433148
I hate to say it but cash shop outfits might be a good idea.
The game is extremely bonsai so they do need some kind of buying incentive.

>>37441379
>they do need some kind of buying incentive.
I can't really argue, considering how easy it is to get gems and tickets. I just prefer not spending money to spending money.
Though I might still go for at least for the Faruru one if they do end up going that route.

Last season of the year will start on the 2nd - Jeanne gets the crimbo costume this time

>Delayed

>>37446370
Being delayed to polish after a beta isn't a bad thing really

>>37423188
>>37446370
What's the latter about? I know Lapis will have a male self-insert being isekai'd into their world and somehow ending up as their sensei, but I know nothing about the other one.

>>37452553
That sucks. Dropped in advance.

Is there any way to make a Google account without having to verify with mobile these days?

>>37456579
It usually asks me and I can skip past it

>>37456690
That's a pain, I must be triggering some mystery bot algorithm because it won't let me skip phone verification.

>>37456941
Are you making it on your phone or PC? Try the other

>start Manasis because it looks cute
>zero (0) freebies on start
man, that is fucking grim
maybe i'm just entitled but getting fuck all just because I started a bit late is an enormous motivation killer

>>37459737
You don't get the 7 day login thing?

>>37459823
not sure I'd count a week of achievement chasing quests as 'freebies', but sure, that's still there, I was referring to the mail items. i'm just triggered by starting a game with nothing because i was a month behind

>>37459948
I started late and missed whatever launch stuff there was, too.
But that's generally stuff I use to reroll, and the 7 day thing lets you pick your 5*.
So I could just use the tutorial 10 roll to grab any 5*, then use her until I could claim my guaranteed Faruru that I started the game for in the first place.
Sure, sucks to have missed some stuff. But I try to focus more on what I can get, instead of what I can't anymore.

>>37446370
This looks terrible

https://twitter.com/fairysphere_jp
This came out today. Not much of a game to it - collect furniture, make spheres and collect cute fairies.

>>37464013
Back to your chink general

>>37464915
I dislike genshin and think Taiwan is a country though?

>>37454708
Your call. I'm picking Lapis up because of this.

Though, I thought everyone knew it already since you could extrapolate from both pic related (from the official site) and the unveiled voice lines so far (such as Kaede calling (You) onii-chan).

>>37459737
it doesn't matter, if they haven't changed it then you can just infinitely reroll the quests thing for the quests that give you 100 gems. You get an infinite amount as long as you're willing to grind.

>>37468692
I wouldn't do it normally but it's a pretty good autistic fallback if you really want to grind out rolls

I've been playing the Grimms Echoes freeware rerelease for about a month now. It's fun™.
The cash shop was completely removed and the game has no stamina system so it's essentially just a normal action RPG you can play whenever you want.
The beginning of the game is insultingly easy but at the start of chapter 4 they unlock repeatable boss fights that become your main source of summons and the game hits a nice level of challenge.
The combat is solid. It isn't incredibly deep but you can overcome a big level disadvantage by building a well-oiled team and dodging attacks on the battlefield. When I lose, I feel like I lost because I made mistakes and not because my team wasn't high level or rare enough.
I wasn't sure about the whole "melodramatic fairy tale" theme at first, but over time I've grown to like most of the cast. If you like/tolerate other Square Enix storylines I think you'll enjoy it.

Overall, it's a pretty fun ride. The quality and amount of content is impressive, especially for a freeware game.
I think it would be a fantastic first gacha game for someone, especially if they're uneasy about microtransactions or the eventuality of the game shutting down someday.
If you have a couple spare gigs on your phone, I'd give it a download, if for no other reason than to have something to scratch your gacha itch when you don't have internet access (the game is totally offline).

>>37474524
How do you reroll?
Deleting data or the apk don't work and i don't like the characters i got.

>>37479149
Is it an offline game?

>>37481519
>(the game is totally offline).
Oh fuck this is what I get for not reading until the end.

>>37479904
You have to wipe the data from the title screen and use guest accounts.

Heaven Burns Red is shaping up to be the best game in 2022.
Don't go to its /vmg/ thread though it has legit schizos.

/mbgg/ clutching at straws

>>37479149
I'm disappointed most offline versions of dead kusoges are just offline gallery without actual gameplay

>>37474524
What a nice character design, can I get her if I start Manasis right now?

>>37493654
I 100% agree.
I've been doing research on sunset gacha games for about a year now. The situation is bad but it's been slowly getting better.

So far the only freeware rereleases with reasonably preserved gameplay I'm aware of are just these:
>Tokimeki Idol
Fun rhythm game with dress up & VR.
>Dankira Boys Be Dancing
BL/Otome rhythm game. I haven't tried it.
>Schoolgirl Strikers Twinkle Melodies
Okayish rhythm game, has a long story mode.
>Love Plus Every Kanojo Plus Lite
VR romance VN, sequel to Love Plus on DS/3DS.
>Grimms Echoes

Only having five preserved out of what, like, a thousand? It's horrible.
But out of those five 3 are by Konami and 2 are by Square Enix. Konami seems committed to preserving all of their major releases and Square Enix recently implied they'd do a full freeware rerelease of all their gacha games as long as not too much of the game is server-side.
So we'll probably get a few more Square Enix games over the next several years, plus every Konami gacha going forward. Schoolgirl Strikers and Grimms Echoes both have sequels so I'm optimistic about those.

A Japanese guy started a blog to keep track of news about this stuff a couple months ago; it's a great place to check out if you're interested in this kind of stuff.
http://offline-application.sblo.jp/

>>37496669
There was also the Yuzusoft gacha, Kako Tama?
Might be able to find an APK somewhere, was just a super basic puzzle RPG.

>>37496622
You get one of her 4*s automatically.
You can roll her 5* in the gacha at any time. Or pick it with your 7 day ticket, if you want.
I kind of prefer her default 4*, anyway. Has a big heal + revive burst for when things get messy.
You can't get that skin for her yet, though. Apparently it's gonna be part of a new "gacha gacha" they're gonna add.

>>37485529
I don't know how a slow board that it attracts trolls.

>>37493654
Kusoge don't have gameplay in the first place.
>>37496669
Rhythm games preserve themselves well for offline versions.

Nip gacha is fucking dead

You lost, Chink

Some more stuff for Compass anniversary.
First of all, there will be a series of collab re-runs with Konosuba available until the 1st, followed by Nekomiya until the 4th, followed by Danganronpa until the 7th. Each one will have a double UR event gacha for the duration.

A 7-day login campaign and a total of of 16 missions will be available until the 20th and 31st December respectively. You can get a few hero tickets and up to 600BM, among other things.
There will also be a separate hero gacha for each hero class available until the 31st.

New irregular costumes are available for Megumegu and Reiya - obtain them by playing as one of the two and then encountering others with irregular costumes in battles.

How's gran saga jp pc if anyone played it. Pros n cons if you will

>>37496669
Toji offline is nice, unlike the MA2 joke of an offline version so SE is getting better at it. Has that same problem as AG I think it was in that you only get to play dress up with the outfits that you unlocked but the full story is in there still. Of course it isn't useful EOPs who will have to watch subbed vids of it on youtube or read the story one the site that that one anon made. Hopefully others follow/out do SE in the future.

I feel for you anon. It's a damn shame.

RIP /mbgg/

Such is life, there's not much new to post about

>>37548215
It's okay, we've got revive skills for that.

Holy hell, the prices for the costumes in Manasis are disgusting

>>37548296
Cute loli tummy

>>37548974
I'd usually agree, but I like the game and hope people buy them since there's not much else to whale on.

>>37548974
Eh, it's about where I was expecting it'd be. Mobage prices are kinda high in general.
Normally I still wouldn't, but I liked this one enough to go for it.
Milly can stick with her default, though.

December's season has started in Compass - usual stuff applies.
There will now be a Danmachi rerun from the 8th ~ 10th, right after the Danganronpa one finishes.
Star Park has also received an anniversary makeover, I believe it should replace the original for at least the remainder of the month.
There's also a nice little page available that gives you a breakdown of your performance stats, ranking history, cards etc. Good to know I've played almost 1000 hours.

Should anyone be interested, the Taiwanese version of the game is being restarted. The client will run off of the Japanese servers and will receive updates at the same time, but you must start off with a new account.

24 sleeps until Christmas

>>37548296
>>37548974
Is that a paid costume?

>>37559970
That one costs anywhere from 120 to 7200 gems, depending on how lucky you are. But probably towards the higher end of that.
The paid ones are >>37549375 and this one, for thirty bucks each.

>>37562825
>30 bucks for 3D costumes
Sounds good, considering that Azur Lane sells 2D ones for at least 10 dollars, and Genshin sells super tame 3D for at least 25 dollars.

>>37515813

Has anyone here used an out of region giftcard lately? Like living outside the US and using an US playstore giftcard to buy things for example?

I heard google tightened up their policies again and made it so people outside the US can't use giftcards anymore even if their region is set to the united states so wanted to check.

They had a bunch of magazines make articles on the game already. From the looks of it, it seems to be the japanese gacha with the biggest production values.

TECHNICALLY,
Lapis is actually outsourced to a Chinese dev company. They have been holding closed beta in CN since last year.
It is part of Klab's Chinese co-operation and expansion strategy.

>>37598116
So it'll have good gameplay?

>>37598116
Confirmed flop then

Confirmed flop. Might as well wait for Maika Fantasia instead.

I bought some japanese google play gift card from a reseller but I cant redeem it no matter what
I tried vpns from vpngate and random proxies online. I even created a new google account and added japanese address. even though it opens the japanese store front and shows my balance and prices in yen and everything, when I try to redeem the code it says you can only redeem it in japan
Anyone knows how to bypass this?

Shit like this always makes me to make a fool of myself before getting fixed

>>37598116
I knew it had a chinese version but didn't know it was a chinese company developing it. But I guess you can technically call it a japanese game since Klabs is a JP company.

I see west taiwan has yet to tire of that same aesthetic in every game.

I miss the old /mbgg/

I miss having a comfy place to discuss the games I play, I miss being able to actually have discussion, I miss not having to wade through hundreds of shitposts to find the few nuggets of discussion in the shithole called /vg/, I wish this awful site had better moderation so discussion could actually happen and I wish the entire site's culture wasnt based around shitting down others throats for fun because this awful site is the only place I can find a few dudes with my same interests among the underage trolls and NEETs that masturbate to shitting up threads with the same bait every day

Thank you for reading my blog

>>37667236
There's been 10 posts in 3 days, you could have discussed whatever you wanted to but you didn't. Do a flip faggot.

>>37667372
>There's been 10 posts in 3 days,
exactly
threads fucking dead because everyone moved to other places

>>37667236
>I miss having a comfy place to discuss the games I play,
That's still around, though. It's just called /vmg/ now.
New /mbgg/ is pretty much redundant, we just still stick around here because why not?

>>37667395
>That's still around, though. It's just called /vmg/ now.
No it's not, I still play many of the games that used to be discussed here like Princess connect or Honkai impact but have you been to those generals? It feels like shit knowing that those are the only places I can discuss those games now when discussion of them used to be so nice when it was over here.

>>37667416
I haven't, but I imagine at the very least they've gotta be more comfy than the /vg/ versions of their threads.

>>37667439
vmg threads for those games dont exist so i'm stuck with the /vg/ versions of those which means its just endless shitposting because a group of people have taken it upon themselves to make the general as bad as they can make it

>>37667447
Average EN players you mean?

>>37667452
Pretty much but Honkai was always in English so that place only really went to the actual shitter this year when Genshin ruined /vg/ as a whole. Priconne is just the thread turning into eceleb drama general and a chatroom for everything except princess connect,

>>37667447
Priconne's got a half year, 500 post thread going there.
Don't see a dedicated main Honkers one at the moment, just a few smaller ones. But I'm pretty sure there have been some bigger threads for it too.
And it a thread for something doesn't exist, you can always just make one.

There actually is a priconne thread on /vmg/ but it's about as dead as this one. Still better than the abomination over at /vg/ at least.

>>37667467
>And it a thread for something doesn't exist, you can always just make one.
I've tried several times, it doesn't work. JP players either gave up and abandoned the site or really want to stay on /vg/. Same for Honkai with everyone wanting to stay on /vg/ and deal with nonstop genshin shitposting and genshin raids daily.
There's other places to talk about the game like discord servers but it's not the same and it's usually people that dont share my same interests unlike here.

>>37667379
It's not everyone else's job to feed you a discussion. If you want to post about something, post about it, people will respond if they have something to contribute. Expecting other people to do all the work carrying a conversation is just whiny kiddie shit.

How come no one is making a /vmg/ thread for Lapis?
The girls/cards look pretty good.

>>37667528
You gotta do the work yourself if you want a niche thread to take off.

>>37667580
I am too busy maintaining a different niche thread there. And somebody else made Heaven Burns Red thread there despite it coming out later than Lapis. Is there really no interest in the game?!

I'm so jaded that I can't enjoy the story or characters of any new game

How do you people deal with this?

>>37667646
It's really just down to keeping a thread up so people can actually discover the game; it's hard to be interested in something when you don't know it exists, and most people on /vmg/ don't keep up with foreign releases even if they're willing to play them.
Like, some posters kept the HBR thread going despite it being practically dead for long enough that it could snowball and now there are streams and beta that are keeping people engaged going forward without needing quite so much life support.

>>37667528
Because there's no Lapis game?

>>37668037
huh?

>>37668213
They said the game would come out sometime this month but I don't have faith in klab anymore

>>37667685
I simply live with the pain.

>>37668873
They are releasing two UR card animations every day now so we might get a date in a week hopefully.

>>37667685

>>37679843
But I can't enjoy the ones im playing right now either

As of this post, The pre-regs for the Lapis Re:LiGHTs game has reached 150k.
https://www.lapisrelights.com/lp/pre-registration/
For pre-registered users, they get 20 Summon Tickets and 1 SSR Ticket, alongside Training, Present and Weapon Enhancement Sets.
Bromides and the Attendance note (pic related) are also released and are free to download.

>>37680858
I really like the retard and the ghost!

Plus, there is an interview made with Lapis Re:LiGHTs Director and Marketing Leader Shunsuke Endo.
https://www.gamer.ne.jp/news/202112100001/
In it, there some tidbits on how LapiLai and the game came to be. Like:
>The original concept was not Magic × Idol, but Beautiful Girl × Military
>The appeal of games with idols as the theme lies in the fun of training, thus the thought of compatibility of RPG and Idols and designing Lapis Re:LiGHTs as an RPG game.

>>37680930
>Beautiful Girl × Military
Saturated by the Chinese after Kancolle, SW, GuP. They dodged a bullet going with the current theme.

>>37667528

I do not know about how will RAY members will include in the game and if they are playable or not. However, they do get to mention (you), like pic related. So there's a possibility?

>>37682487
>dude we want the uma musume audience
Cringe and dead on arrival

>>37688571
The pic I posted is labeled as her game portrait which adds to the tease

>>37688578
>chibi sprites
How are they even going to do winning lives? Hockey idols always sounded like a mistake.

>>37684484
Klab needs to renew the gameplay already.

>>37688571
>>37689074
I'd imagine they'd all go ara ara on (You) or something.

>>37687082
>>37688571
It's isekai so they can just do a time travel event where (you) meet Ray in their prime.

>>37692456
Is it confirmed to have an affection system like BGHS? It would'be funny if it did.

Microsoft got literally dabbed on but at least we won't have to ever rely on shitty emulators or awful PC ports next year

>>37693953
Confirmed. Headpatting, Giving Presents and all. From this preview play:
https://youtu.be/BIppk6viOtw?t=1403

>>37694116
Knowing Google, they'll find a way to ruin and scrap it as usual.

>>37688571
Either special new addition to gacha (Fes etc), or OP characters to grind for (Many such cases).

>>37680858
>>37680930
Still no release date yet?

>>37696132
It's scheduled to be released this month.
>>37358653
However, with pre-regs still ongoing, it might be this or next month.

>>37693953
>>37694367
We already knew about the headpats ages ago, and there's also a button for gifts.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLQ0MJMFsN0

>>37696413
The fuck are they doing, not even bothering with giving a release date even on the month it's supposed to be released?

>>37696413
>>37696828
It's already mid december. Would they release the game so close to Xmas and NY?

>>37696828
Maybe they want to complete the pre-reg goals they have. Right now they are trying to reach the 160k mark. Supposedly there should be three mysterious items to be attained at an unknown goal mark that is probably to be announced soon but it's completely removed.

>>37696959
Google Play and App Store estimates that the scheduled release is on December 31, but maybe it depends on how they can fill up the pre-reg numbers.

Head's up.
https://twitter.com/lapi_staff/status/1470227152448929797
There will be a livestream this Sunday at 19:00 JST. They will announce some new information there. So probably they will announce the release date?

Plus, Majo-Tuber Ratura.

>>37708474
You mean Saturday right?

>>37708561
Oh dang I missed that. Usually they livestream on a Sunday. My bad.

Eh Lapis is alright availability for download

Lapis Re:LiGHTs is available for symbolic preload. In game announcement says 14th launch (Tuesday).

>>37711525
https://twitter.com/lapi_staff/status/1470360350793117702

>>37711525
Well that's a surprise.

>>37711525
It's almost Tuesday in Japan so it's like they're announcing the release date on the date itself

>>37711525
>announcing the release date the day before release
I knew Klab was staffed with retards but this is on another level.

>>37711525
Damn that was too sudden. They really announced the release one day prior?

>>37711525
Hold on. There is one question: How about the pre-regs? They are not done with the 160k goal yet and now they are announcing that the release is tomorrow?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMqTnF2vD8A
New Disgaea kusoge

>>37712567
They gave up anon. Service closure announcement soon one day after release.

Well, as I found out they are ending the pre-reg campaign as it releases very soon.
https://twitter.com/lapi_staff/status/1470378218834337801
200 Stones for the finish. They might as well go pushing for the sudden game release.

>>37713906
That don't looks like a new game but an update for Disgaea RPG.

https://twitter.com/game_puriore/status/1470030937161596936
Pride of Orange game coming out in March apparently.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8EHlVeAK2w
The anime really did a poor job introducing the side characters.

I was surprised when I found my phone automatically downloaded it, I hope they don't take that much as well to bring Ray then

>>37712567
>>37714283
If they were going for the 160k goal, I can't find any tweet saying it.

>>37717437
Look here.
https://www.lapisrelights.com/lp/pre-registration/

>>37717997
Much thanks.

Come to think of it, what happened to Lapis CN? Did Xi's banhammer strike it down?

Has anyone started rerolling in Lapis? How long does one reroll take?

>>37722068
I need to finish all the dailies in all other gacha first.

>>37722068
Takes about 8-10mins of skipping and a resource download at the end.

I guess I'll wait until they introduce Ray properly

I guess I'll stop with this.

>>37723038
Are you rerolling on emulator? Is it the usual method of deleting shared_prefs if so?

The global Grasma pre-registration is up
>dead in JP
>Boltrend
>probably not many players in global
And I will still play it.

Any emulator where Lapis works? Didn't work on bluestacks, LDplayer or Memu for me.

>Shengqu Games
Lapis Re:China...

Why is every Lapis showing off their pits?

>>37724509
pits are the new pussies

>>37724509
Lapits

>>37723836
Sure its Boltrend. Sure, JP is dead. But this gacha was fun as fuck and I'll play it again without wasting money.

After playing for a day, I found Lapis to be a great side game. It has skip tickets which means you can do all your daily stuff in around 10 mins, so it doesn't consume much time overall. I liked most of the girls, but this isn't a game you should play if you don't know Japanese.

What I wish to see in the game later on:
>Better marketing, Klab barely spent anything on it
>Panties on the girls.
>Fix the annoying bugs like missions not refreshing properly
>Dump the chinese version. That's never coming out since Xi doesn't want any more games.

Overall, I think it's a great gacha, and despite the apparently highest production value for a Japanese gacha game, there is zero P2W because you can fairly easily farm the limit break shards for girls. Don't expect a main game out of this though, it's just something you log in once a day to spend your skip tickets on and read the events.

>>37733076
But do they sweat?

>>37733166
witches dont sweat

>>37733186
I will not play your game.

>>37733166
Idoly Pride isn't that popular either bro…

>>37714691
>200 Stones for the finish. They might as well go pushing for the sudden game release.
Is that good or not?

>>37733076
There's no pantsu in the game? Pretty sure the anime had some pantsu during the dancing sequences.

>>37737603
I only saw one panty, which is in the animated cutscene with succubus girl. In-game they all use bloomers or shorts. This may have been due to China regulations, but since this is probably never coming out there they might as well not bother anymore for newer outfits.

>>37737664
>I only saw one panty, which is in the animated cutscene with succubus girl.
Pic? Does Tiara also have bloomers/shorts?

>>37737603
The anime also had show panties

>>37733076
>>37737603
Won't be possible if they want it to be the exact same as CN because China banned panty shots.

>>37737753
The panties I saw in the anime didn't look like show panties though. The colors didn't look like such, for one.

So could someone post the pantsu from the Lapis cutscene?

>>37739022
It was from LiGHTs live scene (the one they failed because retards stepped into multiple districts)

>>37739171
Post a screenshot, my phone is a potato so I can't install it

>>37739171
Also, I was talking about the game (specifically >>37737664 talking about the succubus girl). I already know about the anime scenes.

Does anyone here have the vocal tracks from Heaven Burns Red saved? It's all gone from YT.

>>37740364
Someone ripped the soundtrack in the /vmg/ thread

The uma musume killer...

>>37741011
Proof how f2p friendly it is...

>>37741011
Who would have known that announcing the release one day before the actual day without enough marketing would be a bad idea...

>>37741210
Why the poor marketing anyway?

>>37741371
Nips get their job through connections instead of competence, unlike the chinese.

>>37741371
It's a short fan service. Have you seen the UI? The way the cards are listed for each characters, they won't be able to add much more without it being a clusterfuck. I would say they only planned content to last a year and they will gracefully end it afterwards.

>>37741528
Could you post the succubus' pantsu?

What went wrong?

>>37741567
>new life
>After dozens of other games outright died when horse pussy finally released
This "journalist" has never touched this market.

>>37741545
here

>>37741528
bro you can just click an icon to turn it into list mode which is the same as any other gacha.

>>37741642
Those can't be called alive in the first place.

I like playing dead games.

>>37741662
How do the spats/show panties shots look like?

>>37741662
That's not her pantsu, it's part of her inner that's like a swimsuit one-piece.

We can have this but not panties? Pandering to China is a mistake. I hope Klabs will realize this.

How long will the Lapis game last at this rate?

Are 160,000 pre-registrations good or not?

>>37745611
A dead vaporware like Uma got 500,000.

>>37745188
one year

>>37746133
Why so short?

>>37746096
How much did Idoly get again? I forgot.

>>37744496
China have banned bikini. I haven't seen a single bikini in Azur Lane since March last year.

>>37746345
And uma completely ban porn but china bad :^).

>>37746357
Uma changed the TW flag in Top Gun collab so both are bad.

>>37746357
That doesn't affect the game, Chang

Why didn't Lapis Re:Lights just slap game codes on their discs?

>>37748832
>Why didn't they game the system
Chang moment...

>>37748832
Umas won...

>>37748832
>Umayon artist jumped ship to Blue Archive the year before uma hit it big
Lmao

>>37748832
1. Lapis's anime aired last year
2. Codes are not a guarantee of success: plenty of shows that had game codes still flopped

>>37748938
I thought Blue Archive was the new hotness?

>>37749509
JP got mogged by Uma.
Global was doing fine until the censored loli fiasco.

>>37749555
It was foolish of us to try and oppose umas

>>37749555
Censored loli fiasco?

>>37749641
See >>37748938

So it all comes down to Uma again huh

>>37748938
Kumajet...
>literally jumped ship the month before in early Feb
Well maybe she's working on something big in Yostar... maybe...

Lapis Re:LiGHTs reached no.1 on both Stores! Take that doomsayers

Why doesn't Lapis have a Fanza version? Does Klabs hate money?

Compass is officially 5 years old today! The celebration event with all the big news is on the 19th.

A co-op mission to capture 10,000,000 portal keys is available until the 31st - rewards include up to two 128GB chips
Until the 31st January, you can get 50 days of prime for just 1BM.
128GB chips will have a chance of dropping in ranked until the 26th.

Rest in peace to all the mobage that didn't make it.

>>37756526
Imagine pulling this shit and can't even mog a game that literally ban porn.

>>37757957
they just need to make a porn version and it'll be more popular than Uma Musume.

>>37755151
It did terrible on the first day because everyone was rerolling? Then it did really well on the second day?

>>37759080
More like no one knew the game was out.

>>37759285
They knew it was out, they just couldn't start playing right away because they didn't get to prepare for it since the release date was announced only one day before actual release.

>>37759080
Haha...

>>37688571
Like every other game with "legendary" characters, their cards will be available later on as limiteds but you can't interact with them and presumably they don't have any affection levels either.

>>37692456
>prevent Eliza from losing her voice
Based

>>37773876
so a la Mari, Itsuki, and Furan and Young Asuha of BGHS. Kind of possible. In fact, it may be imminent that RAY will be coming to the game.

>>37773975
Oh yeah, how many similarities are there between these 2 games?
>(You)'re a male sensei teaching the special class in a girls' school
>affection mechanic with gifts and headpats
>has a character in the current roster who was fighting 5 years ago
I'd list more but I can't remember much about BGHS.

>>37774149
Let's not forget it has some similarities to Project Tokyo Dolls
>The characters are Idols
>These two idol games are not rhythm games, but RPG games.
>has an expanded Dress-Up mode.

>>37774284
Also I forgot.
>has Camera Modes so you can picture your favorite idol.

>>37774284
Those honestly aren't anywhere as striking as the ones with BGHS imo

>>37774393
Yeah, you got a point. But Lapilai seems to be a hybrid fruit rollup of BGHS and PTD. Maybe you can describe this as BGHS Bubblegum with a sprinkle of the sweet PTD powder.

I guess Idoly Pride is truly dead now

>>37779298
Meme magic is real. Watch as Saori Hayami dies too. I give it a year.

>>37779298
Im sad Sayaka died but for better or worse her character had no weight in Idoly anymore.

>>37779298
It's ok, we still have selection project

>>37779298
Wait, What happened?

>>37781864
Never mind, I read on what happened. Dang.

>>37779298
Damn this sucks. RIP

I can't believe Lapis Re:LiGHTs killed Idoly Pride...

>>37784473
Everyone already dropped Lapis and went back to Umas.

>>37785011
I've never touched Uma

>>37785570
You're missing out

Summary of the Compass anniversary event from earlier today:

For the main stuff, the next collab is with Sword Art Online - Kirito (Attacker) and Asuna (Sprinter) will be added as new heroes along with 8 new cards (4UR/4SR). New costumes will be available for Adam, Alice, Megumegu, Kirara, Jeanne and Tadaomi. Kirito and Asuna appear to have four alt costumes each. The collab will run from the 28th ~ 16th and one event ticket will be given out to everyone (among other things). Preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6wzxgg3Mfw

The first new hero of 2022 will be Bugdoll - it's another Voidoll-type hero who is connected to the Irregular shenanigans, but there's no other info for now. Teaser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4rpfuoVuVs

A season shop will be added which allows you to obtain rewards from previous season, including costumes and icons, along with energy and hero tokens. Not sure if the seasonal cards can be obtained from this. You will be able to obtain the new currency starting from the next season.

As an anniversary gift and stream viewership reward, 2525BM and 10 golden UR tickets will be given to everyone. There will also be a free single-pull UR gacha for each element, so 3 UR cards in total.

As for Live Arena, the rhythm game, it now appears to be aiming for a release in January/February. There's an article here describing it: https://games.app-liv.jp/archives/504434

That's all for now

Anyone have experience buying from japanese RMT sites like rmt.club or gameclub? Is it possible for gaijin to buy with just paypal or will it ask for a japanese phone number verification at some point.
