    They'd 100% do paid expansions for the game, if not a direct sequel. The game has come too far in too little time to scrap it now, doing that will only waste the opportunity they got from such a successful release not to mention disappoint the huge following they've already gotten. In my eyes they're just purposefully being vague to keep the players on edge and to control our expectations, after all one of the main reasons relink was successful was because no one expected it to be THIS good.

    All Relink needs to keep the playerbase is more fights. They can easily make Proud+ bosses from the older versions of bosses. Give us fight vs Id on Proud, Angra Manayu proud, Tayu'tar proud. Reskin the bosses or combine multiple ones into new fights like the drakes. Maybe make a quest where bosses appear after each other with increasing HP and/or damage. That + skins as paid DLC.

    I've played the browser game for 6 years strong (would not recommend it to my worst enemy or my closest friend) and I've poured maybe close to 100 hours split between the PC and PS5 versions of Relink and I just bought Seofon and Tweyen's dlc despite being down to grind them out anyway. I and a lot of my crewmates have spent nearly thousands on the browser/gacha game on skins alone - it'd be an easy way to get revenue into Relink with how many alt outfits/skins a lot of these characters have.
    The content delivery style so far it evokes the same vibes with how Capcom supported Monster Hunter World well beyond the scope of it's expansion via community events and optional dlcs.
    Also, Sandalphon alone will bring in a ton of revenue in May. He's like the franchise's golden boy next to the Dragon Knight Quartet. His Valentine's Day, Summer, and Grand Alts all did insane numbers for the game. The closest Mihoyo comparison I'd have is like maybe Childe or Bronya levels of popularity.
    I can certainly see development slow down but never truly stop on a game like Relink. The team and the GBF community are far too passionate to let the game truly "die."
    Your voice also has a striking resemblance to this one other gacha content creator I follow, probably just a coincidence.

    Just cause 1.2 and 1.3 are the last pre-planned updates, doesn't mean we don't get new dlc/updates down the line. Even if it may take longer than the month cadence they've been keeping up until now. They themselves said they'd like to keep working on the game as well, so I really don't think we need to doom so hard. Even if Relink doesn't absolutely rake it in, it's not like the company's pockets aren't deep anyway.
    If it really is the end of the updates (which I think it isn't), I still got more than my money's worth and it's absolutely a game I'll keep coming back to.

    Cygames can probably release new areas with new story quest and raid quest along with a new characters,mats,sigils,weapons to grind for as a DLC for like 20~30$ or something and im sure people will be willing to buy those. Hopefully we still get some free content along the way and i also hope that dedicated fans of relink will keep the game somehow alive

  • @renookami4651

    About "the concerns", one thing to know is that the main director of the franchise is interested in adapting it in multiple genres. We already seen an example with Re:Link being ActionRPG and Versus/Rising a fighting game. These games are like side stories to the mobile game, so it makes sense that eventually they only get bonus content once in a while if at all.
    The series have tons of potential and funny enough "a rythm game" is the genre they want to explore the most.
    Which sounds strange until you learn about the numerous "idol themed side story events" (Gran and Djeeta formed a band after SOMEHOW meeting...Which, thanks to the fighting game a timeline where it happens do exist) and the multiple muscian characters from other bands who joined the crew. It's not even a joke, they could hold a full on orchestra-rock concert.
    There's also many more dancers than Yuel and Societte, that's another good side for rythm games.
    Another genre that could be explored is racing games (wipeout/Fzero style?) thanks to the Platinium sky events. (I'm sure everyone remembers the theme song)
    Want some tactical RPG game? Robomi events could take a note or two from SRW's book.
    So, in the end it's less about making the games last forever and more about experimenting, from what I understood from multiple interviews.

    Just to clarify Brax, they have not fully stated that 1.3 is definitely the end of Relink. That is what they expected support to end. However with the potential encouragement for more from the game we could potentially expect additional content however they need to see the demand for it. It helps that Granblue is such a huge universe spamming 10 years that they have the characters and potential foes to supply it. It'll be upto the devs and potentially if they decide to make a poll on what we'd like as a player base we could see small scale updates in the future

    i mean the devs stated several times in the past that it's not a live service game and the only planned updates we've got so far is 3 patches so i think we all expected it'll end at some point, and i'm kinda glad it's not a live service game that's constantly adding limited time events, most of which are mundane time wasters that you only do to get limited precious currencies or gems, or having to play even more boring daily quests because again, it's one of the few sources of precious gems, it feels nice being able to play a game, finish it and move on to another if I wanted to, especially coming from genshin where i found myself just slogging through boring limited time quests because PRIMOS! ever since quitting genshin i've been able to play much more games since that game no longer took the free time i had with it's daily quests and limited time events. finally got around to playing Resident Evil Village and finished Tales of Arise which I put on hold when Genshin released.
    I only have so much free time in a day to play 1 game, having a live service gacha game takes up all of that, so i guess gachas just aren't suited for my schedule so it's a good thing, at least for me that Relink is just a normal game that you play and finish instead of a nearly never ending virtual kiddy casino.
    just hoping that several years down the line, there's still some people playing it online since I tend to feel like going back to older games a few years later just to hop in for a few rounds, I still play games like Generals Zero Hour and Battlefield 2/4 from time to time.

      The thing is live service doesn't HAVE to have those things. Many people are used to daily quests, weekly events etc from gacha games. When I think live service I think like MMOs, a patch every 2-10 months that adds a couple of new things to do, and an optional cosmetic cash shop. No FOMO stuff, all the content stays in the game afterwards.

    don't think there needs to be an aggressive gacha system, but I'd be happy if they added random skin packs in the game, where you could get rolls by completing missions to build your character and also by spending real money.
    I think this would be the way to keep the game alive, healthier, less predatory, and it would give people something that was the main criticism besides the basic story: the censorship they did on Granblue Fantasy characters, which already had their models and were changed.

    The only reason I bought this game was because it wasn't f2p or riddled with micro transactions or gacha elements, which would ruin this game, im just so used to buying a game, playing it for a month or so and then moving on, this idea of live service and putting 1,000 hours into one game just doesnt appeal to me, this game already has twice as much content than most AAA games, I've already put over 160 hours into the game when i normally I put about 80 hours into most AAA titles, plus cygames isn't capcom, you can't expect them to continually support a game that isn't financially worth it to them, monster hunter world support ended years ago yet a lot of ppl still play, this whole trend of ppl stopping to play a game they enjoy just because support ends is just odd to me, these ppl act like the servers shut down and they can't play the game anymore, especially when most AAA games have no post launch support besides a few updates, the gaming community has a poor history of being grateful, especially when most AAA games you might get 60 hours at most, I dont think ppl realize how unique monster hunter and games like it are, its an extremely rare phenomenon in the AAA gaming market, and you can't expect every AAA coop game to do these kinds of things, it's just not realistic, I would much rather end it now then have the game ruined by gacha or MTs, for me with relink the journey to level 100 was a lot more enjoyable than the endgame at level 100, so for me starting a new save and doing it all over again sounds much better than continuing to play the game with everything already done and begging cygames for more content, or better yet play other games too, there are just way too many good games out there, I've discovered so many older games I never played, for example I'm just now playing games like the trails series, fallout 4, SAO last recollection, Ys IX, monster hunter rise/sunbreak, rise of the ronin, torchlight 2, diablo 3 eternal collection, warhammer 40k inquisitor martyr, nightmare reaper, borderlands 3, wonderlands and many others

    There's no excuse for a company making tons of money to cry about not being able to sustain a paid game in the long run.
    Capcom and monster hunter aren't as big in money making as these guys, yet Capcom supported all their monster hunter games far more and wayyy longer after the release, even getting expansions with huge changes and updates.
    A single free update from any recent monster hunter game had a lot more content than what we're getting here.
    Here it's just an arena with a boss and 2 characters (either tweyen or seofon fully geared in 2 days of playing the game...).
    The other quest I won't even mention, you do it once and you're done (I don't even know why, boring quest, lame rewards - the one where you shoot little red demons).
    It was very disappointing.
    It's just mindless power creep instead of giving us other ways to play your characters.
    The gameplay was good, why not adding modes like a survival challenge where you need to kill random bosses one after the other until you die? You don't even have to add new monsters...
    At least it would make the farm more bearable instead of repeating the same quest over and over again...
    Then with the points you get, you just buy the components you need instead of having to kill a dragon 7 times to have 1 useful drop....
    They have good gameplay but no idea how to make the game fun for long.
    Lucilius I didn't even killed him before the 2 new characters dropped (tried it like 5 times and was bored already) then I try the new characters and killed Lucilius on 2nd try with a character I played for a day only (Tweyen) with no upgraded weapons...
    She trivializes any fight in the game while my old fully awakened characters still can't kill Lucilius on the other hand.
    I hate when they drop stuff that make your hard earned / invested old characters useless

    Cygames would be stupid to keep updating a PS4 game. Relink 2 is probably in the works hopefully with gacha and better systems because they went overboard simplifying Relink. Autopilot controls are already enough for webgame fans. Combos are insultingly shallow and skills need to be integrated more fluidly so that it doesn't just feel like you're waiting for 4 cooldowns to do anything. And for the love of god listen to fans for character releases because nobody cares about the base story or roster Relink got panned in all reviews over it. Link Time and Skybound Arts are terrible in their current form.

  • @Umi_Pumi
    @Umi_Pumi 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    They fumbled hard. Monster Hunter does it all the time with yearlong updates.
    The game is missing true endgame content, there is no reason to farm anything anymore, since the hardest fights give you the best stuff and then thats it.
    Costumes arent really in the game for some reason, even though there is a tab for it.
    They could sell mini expansions for 10 bucks where we get new difficulties, more fights etc
    They have the base foundation of the game, Relink 2 could look and feel the same for all I care, just add more boss fights and make the grinding similar to MH and not this pointless thing where 99% of the fights you dont want to do anymore, because upgrading and crafting only needs certain materials. In MH you sometimes have to kill the wildest stuff, to get the specific armor or weapon you want
    Edit: Easy fix would have been to not promise free dlc characters. Just give them a 5 or 10 dollar tag and make some money off of them that way, like Versus Rising.
    Bundle that with new content, harder difficulties, and youd be golden.

    They already did it with VS and then Vs Rising, and Shadowverse and now Shadowverse Evolve, and Shadowverse Worlds Beyond.
    I would love for them to make another game and start retelling some of the stories from browser, I want big cinematic fights like Faa and ProtoBaha for Tiamat, Shiva, Avatar, Atum, Primarch etc.
    Or, gives us a entirely new perspective, be it the Enforcers with Monika and Lecia as the main characters or my pipe dream, a game based solely on the Society arc.

    Remember this was their first full on game for Granblue (VS is a lot easier to make and was mostly handled by Arc Sys anyways) so Cygames might release a Relink 2 given that this game sold incredibly well (especially in foreign countries where GBF isnt even officially out)
    They more than likely tested the waters and were successful so even if it ends expect an announcement soon for a new game since the browser games they make are Money Printing machines (remember Uma Musume is also by them) Granblue is never shown in the gacha earning lists cause its a browser game but trust me they print money with it

They could sell it for 30 $40 because it would be pretty much the next chapter in the story plus the characters that get released along with that chapter. They would make money that way and people keep playing if they know the content is coming but if I think that they're going to scrap this game I might stop playing because I'm like what am I grinding for. I can currently be all the bosses in the game so me continuously trying to perfect my billed as me trying to prepare for the next boss but if nothing is coming what's the point I'll just go play something else.

      This. Remember how the previous two attempts to make spinoffs of gacha games turned out, Azur Lane Crosswave and Seven Knights: Time Wanderer, alongside how Puzzle & Dragons Gold just looked awful. I doubt we'll see any other gacha dev interested in making a paid spinoff of a gacha game anytime soon after Relink (or ever), as there isn't the financial sense from both developers & players and most players don't want offline versions of gacha games.
      In fact, had Relink been a publisher-owned IP where the publisher owns the IP and not the devs, the publisher would've most likely chosen to cancel it altogether and the plot of Relink would've been relegated to the original mobile game instead.
      I think gacha devs are more likely to make paid original IPs than spinoffs of gacha games.
