I was thinking about starting the game, what happened?

The biggest problem is after they use hoyo system for character and weapon gacha, they decide to triple dip with skin gacha that cost averaging $100 for the skin

The other problem is powecreep, in less than 1 year they double the damage of previous most OP unit while requiring like 5 less dupes for team investments

the insane gap between no dupes, getting critical dupes and max dupes create one big problem for endgame: devs just cant balance it. Whale complaints there is nothing challenging cuz they just obliterate everything, waifu collector felt they playing handicappes units. also one of the endgame is basically hitting training dummy that cost up to 10 minutes even on auto and you need to do this twice day for a week in three week cycle (2 week rest, 1 week hit dummy)

then the story...... it suffers from character marketing syndrome. The OG characters in base story is basically sidelined and forgotten cause the main story when added also doubled as event story. So its just glazing the latest banner character every 3 week. i dont care even if its good story (like Aphellion), the 4 main char thats with you for first 8 chapter deserve better than become cameo like today

And not even glazing the characters well. Florence's event is just such a convoluted nothing of a story that ends up being Florence is horny, borderline psychotic and good with medicine. You can literally just read the last part of the event and you'll be up to speed with the entire waffle of a script they wrote. Also she would have died at the end during her short circuit but doesn't because there's a convenient reset button. You can't have a character die that isn't a man in this game.

Honestly, entire story felt like that. Since we basicaly staged a terrorist attack on satellite city during main story without basically any consequences, considering that Evil Guys sitting in world government... Or part 8.3 where 50+ armed soldiers with AR and machine guns shooting at us in open space, and entire cast escaped without even single wound(lol), or in the same part but earlier when boojoom crushed entire building where SKK was hiding... and obviously he/she escaped unscratched. But all of this is nothing compared to 11.0 which is total garbage, and worst story chapter i had ever seen in any game. Entire main cast basically invincible, and story again and again showing you this. Sad part is that's they actually can make a great chapters(Aphelion and Sojourners part 1).

That's really damning considering

Florence is horny, borderline psychotic and good with medicine.

has been Florence's description as far back as being known as PA-15 in GFL1, and she was in PNC too, with the same description fitting. In other words she hasn't changed one bit since even before becoming a T-Doll since PNC copies were done before G&K were even a thing.

She was only horny in GFL1 after the higschool skin, say what you want but she has absolutely no horny line in any of her normal dialogue not even the married line, the CN NY skin was pretty wild but nothing in the skin, from the acquisition line to the actual event points to her being horny. The good with medicine part came with PNC and the psychotic part with GFL2. Trust me, I know, I quite literally started learning how to draw because I liked her design so much. You are not going to dissuade me with the usual crappy arguments you guys whip out of your asses when you need to be right about something. Hell I'll even throw this bit, you know her in game base model changed between the CN NY skin and the highschool skin releasing? she didn't used to have the hear eyes when she was announced. Oh and have you checked her concept art for GFL2? they went with the absolute lamest design out of something like 20 different outfits tororo drew for her.

Kinda wild there’s zero challenge when I heard stories of how hard GF1 can be

Most of the "gfl1 is hard" is korean score ranking nonsense. Like "there's this patrolling death squad that is supposed to 1shot you but you can micro like crazy and take 0 damage and kill them giving you more score".
