Listen to me.
Listen to me very carefully.
-All of you people that sat there and blindly accepted something that was literally nothing but a pathetic cash grab; shut your mouths.
Evo'able plats was literally the worst thing to happen to this game and nothing can change that. It was a move firmly rooted in greed, and despite my best efforts to tell you that, you still fell for it. You idiots blindly pulled packs to get Platinum Units you already owned, just to make their damage a little better. If you honestly think that doesn't make you retarded, I don't know what else to tell you.
-Anyone that hasn't been playing this game for more than two years; shut your mouths.
When this game first came out, 7-Star units did not exist and there were literally two 6-Stars. They added 7-Star the same way they're adding 8-Star. It's a powercreep. It happens in every online game ever made literally ever, and to expect it to be any different shows a complete lack of common sense, intelligence, and understanding of how game such as the one your playing work on a fundamental level.
-If you think for a second that 8-Star Units are going to make Platinums obsolete, please let me send you money because I'm pretty sure I can write it off as charity.
Maybe they'll have more attack and HP. Maybe they'll have stronger Abilities and Actives. Maybe. But the draw of Platinum Units was never the stats. It's the skills. The point of Plats are their Uniques and, to a degree, their near exclusive access to Multi/Rush actives. You can't sit there and possibly think that Salix's Atk/HP Up passive in any way makes her better than any Plat currently in existence.
Yes. Plats have good DPS but that doesn't come from their stats. Do ya think SS Ba'al would be any better than any other 7-Star without her Unique? Do you think that of literally any Platinum? That they'd be just as good without their Uniques? On that note, do you believe 8 Salix will be better than SS Ba'al in terms of DPS?
-"hurrrrrrrdurrrrrrrr fantastica hurrr"
Congratulations. You've never played a Gacha game before this one, literally ever. And you're a brain dead thalidomide baby.
Fantastica has been around for many, many years. It's had it's fair share of Powercreeps. And WOW IMAGINE THAT Fantastica is still alive to this day. Man, it's addition of extra stars by an increment of 1 about once every 5 years didn't kill it!? Wow, what a surprise it's almost like this is exactly what's supposed to happen so that the games don't stagnate.
-but the rates crap are and only whales are going to have them
WOW. Finally, a decent argument. And here I thought all you were literal vegetables, lying comatose in hospital beds.
Yeah, that's true. From the screenshots I've seen, there's currently a 0.25% chance to pull Salix. And, yeah, that is a garbage rate but ya know what else had garbage rates? Platinum Units. Ya know what still to this day has garbage rates? Platinum Units. And if you sit there and try to tell me that there won't be any way for F2P Players to obtain her, then I'm going to reach into my screen, out of yours, and slowly but surely squeeze the life right from your neck.
And here's the rub, there, Sally:
None of you complained when Platinum Units first became a thing, either, didja? Ya know. Those super OP units with never-before-seen Multi/Rush, 9 Hit Actives with usually super busted Unique skills that could only be obtained by spending Crowns? The units that were specially geared towards whales and whales alone that absolutely dominated the meta for every event. You didn't even complain when they started giving power boost to the aforementioned already super-busted whale units.
No, ya didn't did ya? Because it was something new and exciting you'd never seen before, whereas "8-Star" is something your tiny, putrid brains can more easily comprehend, therefore more easily dismiss.
To summarize: This is not going to do anything to the game, literally at all. It'll change the meta, but Platinum Units have been doing that every other week since Jeanne d' Arc. This is far, FAR removed from the worst thing that has ever happened to this game. Sit down, shut up, give it time. It'll be fine.
That is all.
praise mother tree.
