3.8It's been a month of playing this game and beside the drama about gacha pulls, here is what I can tell you.
Advantages:
The graphic: Is actually like blue archive as the chibi style and Live2D scene when you unlock character affinty lvl 10 and also the detail art-style in each disc with custom logo of the character (following with their own music)
Gameplay: The combat has changed into a team builder with rouge-like kind of play like vampire survivor playstyle which is quite fun to play with as you can explore each character and playstyle. And after you beat acension, you can use the team you cleared to beat other content like farming for material, arena and boss fight (It's pretty similar like CZN in how the teambuilding function work).
SFX: The music is pretty okay but the highlight is the disc that you get from gacha or farming each of them own have pretty good music theme and you can choose what music you like to be your default theme like Touhou Lost Words.
Storyline: It's pretty funny story about how company control everything in the world and the main character slowly from having dementia about who you are to fighting the company by making an company yourself. (This is kinda ironic for the game situation though.)
Now, let us move to the cons and the thing that making me feel that the game is about reach EOS.
Disadvantages:
Lacking Gameplay Upgrade Resources: Even though the game reward you with a lot of material for you reach up to 1 character with level 90 and some few other character up to level 80 but after you run out, the grinding material is very hellish as you spent maxmizing all the stamina to grind the level even at the highest difficulty possible is still really hard to get enough like disc exp at level 70-90, as once you run out all the discs upgrade material from the beginner reward, it become a waiting game when you burnt through all the stamina just to upgrade a few level for a disc, character and skill levels until there is a new event. (I know this is just my rant but tbh the rewards for beginner are still really generous for you to upgrade any unit you want to max potential beside the Talents Upgrade).
Lack of events: As currently there is really a few event in the game since launch that are actually different from each other as I can even count until now there are only 3 EVENTS total that are: "Shia Summer Debut", "A Final Echoing (Server Boss Fight)" and "Guild Sweet Guild (New Story Update)" which is very bad for a game this big from yostar as it really show a big issue for lacking of content to stay in the game hugely once you cleared everything.
Lacking gacha currency: Due to the amount of lacking events content. It's really hard to get any proper gacha gems (Stellanite Dust) once you have exhaust all the other gamemode options like Arena and Boss Ground. And due to the requirement to make 10 pulls is now 3000 dusts with higher pull pity to get the 5* character you want is 120 (Assume that you missed all the chance to get the banner character). Because of this, it really hard to grind daily to get even enough 1 pull as there are no weekly quest too beside new event.
Lacking VA content: As the main story doesn't have any VA at all so you gonna have to read text scrolling. Currently the only part that get voiced is the Special Memory and the character greeting on your home screen but Special Memory used in your home screen doesn't have any different dialog from the normal live2d character screen.
In conclusion, the game is highly polished and there is a lot of effort have been put in but is seem that there is something wrong with management of the game that it just got a lot of issues and now I'm afraid that EOS is about to happen soon. The only thing right now I can hope is that the game can try to fix most the issues that I and other players have been mentioning before if not the game will soon become EOS (End Of Service).
So if you are wondering if you should play, then I can say that if you want to experience the game and try out something new then it is alright to play if you like the graphic of blue archive or gameplay. But if you don't like the game due to the drama, lack of event content minimal VA Story content or a big sign of EOS incoming then you can skip this game.
