love that an ancient blood curse is canonically the justification for style battles, nikki lore goes wild. Nikki, the only dress up franchise where your fashion friend who you’ve journeyed with gets brutally stabbed and DIES.
I'm like 90% sure this have takes place in an alternate timeline from both love and shining Nikki and Shining Nikki doesn't have a blood curse in it anyway due to Nikki going backwards in time 600 years in attempt to prevent the destruction of miraland anyway. I would refrain from assuming the blood curse applies to this game until proven otherwise.
I'm actually not sure if the Blood Curse is a thing in this version of Miraland (its an alternate universe from Love and Shining). Its explained in an in-game book that Styling Contests are basically magic contests, demonstrations of Whim as well as fashion. Whim fuels Ability Outfits, which according to another in-game book have nigh-infinite uses, from construction, to purification, to war. Sovereign Duels show it best, but winning a Styling Contest is basically saying 'My magic is stronger than yours.' And powerful magic users can quite literally blow away their enemies. In fact, Stylists used to be called Whimancers before Ability Outfits were fully developed.
If the theory that this takes place much much after SN in the Miraland timeline is accurate, then the blood curse maybe never even happened, since the timeline was changed by Nikki trying to save the world. I also wonder if since The Abyss's name gets changed from 1000+ years of time, I wonder if Styling Power becoming Whim is the same circumstance (same thing diff name).
Do it, the cute outfit and surprisingly dark story make it more than worth your while. I have been a Nikkiverse fan for years and I have never regretted it
Been playing this a bit, and while it throws a ton at you right out of the gate, at least the early game throws a decent amount of the currency stuff at you. There are also advancement gates based on days played, such as your abilities only awarding a set limit of XP but always providing the drop items, which will keep players from charging straight to the end game. I'm looking forward to seeing how the game advances.
no more like a Mario game this is a platformer why do people think of genshin with this game play it this has little to 0 combat kinda like grow home/ grow up a 3D platformer
Its the opposite one of the lead devs of legend of zelda worked on this game including breath of the wild, the game genshin copied including the ui at launch
Infinity Nikki feels like they straight up "stole" assets from Genshin Impact, it's hilarious. Compare the fonts and aesthetics. Surprised this game didn't come from Hoyoverse.
"compare the font and aesthetics" what? the aesthetics arent similar to genshin at all and the font? i have played both games and i dont find the simmilarities
I heard they got a BotW dev (Kentaro Tominaga) on the team. Considering Hoyoverse has explicitly stated Genshin was inspired by BotW it’s not surprising there’s similarities
The assets are not stolen genshin and hoyoverse games just use the same user interface premade assets as infinity nikki, anyone can purchase and use them for commercial use I saw the exact genshin home settings layout on a few different games asset sites ppl need to quit the pitting genshin and nikki against each other nikki series has been running for almost a decade longer than genshin like some of these takes are really reaching
Can’t believe rin doesn’t know about the blood curse and how that’s why disputes are settled with fashion shows instead of fights

I have played a few hours of IN and “I” didn’t know about the blood curse. I don’t know if they have implemented that explanation yet.

I hope whoever came up with "What if the gacha had _cute_ girls instead?" got a raise.

Thankle Yousels
Thank you!
If the devs who made Zelda & Love In Deep Space made Infinity Nikki too, them it's a good game.
One of the Main devs from Breath of the Wild worked on this game too, so you are not wrong!
23:28 Skip to when Rin actually starts to play game
Thank you
her being confused by the settings is funny though
just got done with an infinity nikki session to watch yt and i see this! im so happy to see rin play this i’ve been so obsessed :3
I told myself I would never play a gatcha game, but… this is tempting me….
Hey as long as you have self control it's a good game. I have found it fun!
Do it, the cute outfit and surprisingly dark story make it more than worth your while. I have been a Nikkiverse fan for years and I have never regretted it
give in 👍

Doing the lord’s work. Bless.
this game is basically "Genshin Impact but Whimsy"
it definitely has Rin's whimsy seal of approval 👍
no more like a Mario game this is a platformer why do people think of genshin with this game play it this has little to 0 combat kinda like grow home/ grow up a 3D platformer
Genshin has a fair bit of whimsy tbf
Thought it was from the same developers as Genshin Impact just based on the menues
Its the opposite one of the lead devs of legend of zelda worked on this game including breath of the wild, the game genshin copied including the ui at launch
