I also started this game this year. Hadn't played a single gacha ever since I quit playing Kantai Collection in 2021. I just really fell in love with this game and haven't missed a single day ever since I began playing at the beginning of march. I'm also halfway to hitting level 90 in doctor level. The biggest things for me have been the awesome gameplay, great characters and overall what to me feels like a really decent gacha system, though I can't really speak on that front a lot considering the only other gacha I played was Kantai Collection, heh.
Letsgoo, new Dokutah. Welcome to Terra, a place where you can find any kind of disaster, calmity, cathatsrophe, despair, and... oh Hi Suzuran! :3 All jokes aside, hope you're enjoying the game & community. As someone who fairly late to join this great community (2023 April), I can guarantee you that the first year of your Arknights experience will be the most challanging yet fun journey. After a year, you can get relaxed & have no worries talking with the communities, especially about the CN stuffs _also just question, what type of content you'll try to make in the future_
Actually, I can't say for sure what type of content I'm gonna make, I have a TON of video ideas, next video is probably gonna be about Mephisto but when I'll finally catch up with the story and and stuff, lore videos will definitely come too. When I get good at the game (doubt that's gonna happen soon), maybe I'll do like operator breakdowns. I'm also always open to suggestions so if you have something specific then you can always suggest it :D
I started playing arknights from like virtuosa banner and oh boy it become my NO.1 gacha of all time and im not even that deep into story (still its more enjoyable then stories in other gacha games). The amount of creativity this game put in me just to see how can i beat same map on 2135554 diffrent possibilites is amazing. Character designs are litterly top tier. Gameplay is realy fun and im talking as a guy who didn't like tower defense. I played a bit TD but i get bored after like 4-5 hours?
Always nice to see a new doctor around, especially one interested in the community. A tip if you're going to browse Ao3 like that though, heed any Dead Dove warnings and use filters liberally. It's mostly just one or two authors writing things like that, so it's pretty easy to filter out if that's not what you're looking for.
@@estrange0 Also, as a heads up, the fewer tags something has, the more those tags mean. If something only has 15k words and four tags other than characters and one of them is something you don't like, expect that to be the main focus of all 15k words.
Its nice to see another newcomer. Welcome doktah. Btw I'm newcomer too. started the game late april this year. I'm Enjoying it so far thanks to integrated strategies
I started practically exact the same time as you, felt so many things you said in this video too LOL. I'm a big tower defense hater but for some reason this game just has me going crazy everytime I play it (in a good way). Love how flexible the game is too for all kinds of players, F2P players have so many good free/low rarities to use to clear practically anything, or spenders who can do some crazy stuff too. Despite being pretty new I already spent a lot on the game cause the packs are too good (thanks to it, almost have every unit I want already, just missing exec alter whos my favorite and also ebenholz, and Muelsyse but i'll spark her on anni), and now I'm at the point where I look forward to getting 625 in Contingency contracts (despite the suffering, it's so fun, managed to get 635 on Pyrolysis). Music is too godlike (operation basepoint is probably my favorite song right now), art is INSANE. Stories also pretty fire! Glad to see other people who started same time enjoying it as much as I do despite being so late into the game!
Welcome to Terra! we have not just cookies but also terrifying eldritch horrors (virus of life un-tethered), ancient, bloody power struggles and [static] ..sf,knhdf//.. .. .. *dark forest theory*
@@estrange0imagine if you were alone at night in a pitch black forest and suddenly, you see or hear something in the distance. Would you risk calling out whatever that is, even if it could be dangerous? Or do you just stay quiet in the hopes that it, and anything else that might be around, doesn't spot you? Now replace "pitch black forest" with "universe". The theory says that there could be plenty of aliens out there, but that they might be trying to avoid communication with other aliens in case one is hostile, and questions whether we should do the same thing, and that if we find aliens maybe we should just stay hidden and observe silently.
Wow. A new doctor. Welcome aboard. The learning curve is huge, kinda not friendly to newbie ( some of event is really depend on some OP). But its a good game with extremely good music
i played r8-8 once and that was it, i am never touching that stage again. great work! looking forward to more arknights content. also, nice pfp, i also wonder where that came from
I love R8-8 to death. At the time I didn't have the units to brute force it. But it was so exhilarating to finally beat it. It's also so unique. I wish there were more "escort boss unit" stages.
I started playing April last year, and it's become my favorite game. The character designs, music and world building are top tier and Integrated Strategies have been a fun addiction. Also i'm only missing 8 operators in the game at this point, and i'm hoping to get them all eventually
Surtr is a great name idk what you mean lol Anyways welcome to Rhodes island doctor! Good luck First of all, try to get ash she’s a collab character, usually considered a True limited (well was before she reran 3 years later) If you can’t get her then save for W-alter, she is a meta character that’s coming soon and will probably carry you if you get her while you’re still progressing. Another thing is surtr is in the shop right now, she’s a boss killer I’m not sure if you can get her with 180 yellow certs but just know it’s here for another 2-3 days
1:50 wait what ?! We are the good guys ?! I though Rhodes Island was a social experiment to see if it was possible to being te most dangerous "pharmaceutical" company in terra And this 3:14 is totally a good reason for playing the game
welcome brother. I started 2 days after the launch of global, and i started cause tower defense is my childhood. I grew up playing flash games like bloons. Also, there's 318 operators currently
3:35 Despite watching the anime, I suggest you still read the following stories: - 6-6 - 6-11 After - 6-13 I feel like they provide some important lore/context that the anime glossed over or adapted superficially. Especially the part with Mephisto and Faust.
your vids got rec on my tl, and i do enjoy your excitement for the game TILL you showed the ao3 part (and as a ff writer who keeps shoving mine into that site i legit dying bcs your reaction to it lmao) also welcome to arknights!
Kirara being good is just you knowing how to play her. Most people just Unga bunga the stage but it's fun using specialists cause of how different their gameplay is
I can say that the gacha/event rewards are the best if you clear most stages even if scuffed (especially for starting/mid game players). The only stuff people would miss are free originite prime on side story events. This is the only gacha game I know that give enough premium currency/headhunting pulls for banners/operator skins. If anyone knows any gacha game that is similar to this system do tell me cause I'd definitely be curious.
Ptn is the closest. It is basically eldritch abyssal maze with a similar tower tac srpg. Brown dust 2 is a korean jrpg solo, very nice. Memento mori and nikke are afk rpg with some story and character story
Audio balance is definitely not there (and thus subtitles are godsend), but for the first video I can only 👏👏👏 At this point you are for sure no longer a new player, but I wanna say it regardless - Welcome to Arknights!
Thank you ^^ I gotta inform myself on how to balance my audio or smth like what you're talking about, the audio quality will definitely improve tho once I figure that out :D
@@estrange0 no-no, I'm not talking about something fancy. It is about balance between how loud and clear I can hear your voice (and therefore understand what you say) to the volume of ingame sounds/music at the background. I just didn't perceived your voice as clear as I would wanted to, so made a notion about ratio between voice vs background.
2:12 Try to reconsider this - abt the gacha system: + ~250 pull is guaranteed for a new non limited + No pity for regular standard pool + 300 pull for a guaranteed limited 2:26: 6 star may be easier to get, but *which unit matters* . So the gacha is much more unpredictable.
I have to disagree on some parts. One of the most important things of the Arknights gacha system is that it has the Certificate system in the shop, which not only allows you to obtain more pulls but also lets you buy new operators with previously obtained pulls. Yes, of course this only works for non-limited units but from experience I have to say that you can save about 300 pulls in a matter of 6 months so if you desperately want a unit, you're able to pull for it and also get them guaranteed as the pity is in most limited or collab banners somewhere between 120-300, which is higher than for example the genshin impact gacha system but makes it possible to obtain some limited units you desperately want. You may not be able to obtain every single limited six star, I agree on that part but you are still able to save for specific 6* or buy the ones in the standard pool with certificates, which are also completely f2p friendly. So yes, the gacha system is unpredictable, but it's wrong to say that you aren't able to obtain specific units that you want easily. For limited banners, yes they may require a bit more saving but you are still able to obtain them somewhat quickly when pulling for them. Also, you have to consider that limited units have a 50%-70% chance to be obtained when pulling a 6*, so just statistically, you should be able to obtain a unit you desire quickly (although rate-up is still a scam lmao) :D
The primary issue is that arknights has a lot of 6 star ops. 5 years. Compared to path to nowhere, i get the sinners i want in 1 to 30 pulls but i dont need 200 pulls unlike arknights where using 300 pulls just barely gives me a roster of6 stars to clear events. In ptn the swuad is 6 people. Having 1 good unit makes a huge difference. In arknights, having an elite 2 weedy not gonna do that much in stages requiring boss fights or elite 2 stats
I have been quite blessed in arknights nikke and path to nowhere aka abyss maze. Having 1 top level healer hamel with the free noc dps unit, allowed me to clear. A lot of content. In arknights however, having flametail and weedt e1, was not nearly enough to clear event stage 7 or 8, let alone challenges without support units. Recently i got thorns pot 1 and silverash mountain, plus shining warfarin ptilopsis. These units made a big difference but not all stages uses them. I am in easier arknights zone than 1 month ago full of e1 4 stars and 5 stars. E1 50, hard night gameplay. Clearing harold boss stage, nightmare even with mylnar.
The biggest difference is elite 2 units. Having about 4 to 6 of em makes a huge difference. And that absolutely requires time and farming for mats and xp.
Dailies, Weeklies and Annihilation, Events, A ton of Originite Prime from Main story and also events, monthly orundum and tickets from the shop. I've been way to addicted to this game since I started playing in February ^^
pls... tell me something, the clear of the level R8-8 (the level you show in the background) having Kafka in the squad.... is your clear? because if it is..... lets be friends pls. i never actually see someone using Kafka very often, and that makes me happy in some way i guess by the way. good video, welcome to the game. i dont have so more than a year in the game, but yeah. welcome :b
@@estrange0 nice! I never try to use her in that stage. i have to agreed with you, she is super versatile, sometimes she give you the time to deploy or to active a skill of other operator even with her first skill she can stop the attack of some enemies or make the enemies get close to each other and with that make a Aoe attack more efective. Basically a very versatile operator
probably a bait take but calling genshin, a game where 1.0 units, 4 stars even, can compete very close to units who just got released, a "crash grab" is insane.
Honestly no, I've played it for quite a while (AR53) and the amount of hours you have to sink into this game just to get enough primo gems to pull for characters is insane. It's clearly designed for whales and not as free to play friendly as Arknights by a long shot. Or at least that's my take
@@estrange0 1.0 F2P player, c4 furina, c3 raiden, c2 klee... ak has to have better rates ofc, you have a 12 slot squad and you can use almost all of them at once in battle meanwhile genshin only needed 8 for years until more recently with the new mode. ak also does not have a guarantee nor a low pity(only recently they decided to add pity too), you dont know how many pulls I wasted on stainless last banner just for nothing, if that was in genshin, that would mean my next 5 star was closer, in ak it meant I had less pulls for walter, nothing more. dont get me wrong, to me both have really good pros and cons, buying a 6 star character from the shop is amazing but knowing my mavuika is a guarantee is just as amazing.
I agree with the pity part, I do have to mention though that in Arknights, pulls can be farmed waaaay easier. The end game content in genshin just simply rewards too few pulls so you have to manually do the exploration things, which is honestly just pain. In Arknights meanwhile, you can auto some stages, get your daily and weekly Originium and can just auto everything except the events, which is just way more friendly for casual players. You can also just buy operators in the shop, which is HUGE and amazing for f2p players whereas in genshin, you don't have that luxury
@@estrange0 60x7(a week of dailies) = 420, 420/160(one pull)= 2,6 pulls per week, less than ak annihilation with 3 pulls huh? lets see, 420x4(a month) = 1680(a ten pull) 1600 + 800+800( end game reset every 15 days)=3200 20 pulls per month ak now, 4x 1800 = 7200 from annis + 5000 from dailies = 12200 20,3 pulls per month but then you remember genshin has events every few days which give around 3 - 4 pulls, big events giving a bit more. it has exploration which gives pulls once ofc but you can always do it later so no fomo and they stack a lot cuz game is huge, it has quests and side quests every month that give you a lot of extra pulls if you do them, it has the trees which reward you for exploring with even more pulls. ak has like, two events per patch, most of them give a ten pull but then again, womp womp if youre not a new player and just cry in the corner with no OP cuz you already cleared that event so in the end they just... feel the same. you said exploration was pain and um, I believe thats why you didnt clicked with genshin; the game wants you to explore and its what genshin is, you just dont like exploration and thats ok, its pain for you, not for me. I dont know whats the hype about autoing stuff when its a game and genshin now has a thing where you spend more time booting up the game than doing dailies cuz you can craft like 3 condensed resins and gg, got my dailies done. honestly ak decided to auto stuff in the worse possible way; reverse1999 has an auto where you choose how many runs you do then do the run actually once( on 3x spd) and boom, you get the rewards for the amount of runs. in ak? "oh you want 6 runs? gl watching 6x 2min runs then". and I already talked about being able to buy ops is cool and yea its a good feature but I also said that, you know, not worrying about IF I will get my next target with genshin's guarantee is just as cool, do not forget ak never has reruns for limiteds, I had to farm 300 pulls to spark my skalter.
Compelling arguments honestly, maybe it's just my genshin hate speaking cuz I lost my 50/50 4x in a row xD I'd also argue that Arknights has its originite prime, which can also be used for orundum and can be obtained from normal stages and event stages. In my opinion, Arknights is way less grindy than Genshin (doing events, exploration, etc), which I love as honestly I don't have any free time outside of school cuz of the videos currently so that's a big plus for me. But you're probably right that I'm not the intended target audience. But yeah, probably depends on the person. If you're fine with spending more time then Genshin would be more interesting for you

Compared to path to nowhere, i get the sinners i want in 1 to 30 pulls but i dont need 200 pulls unlike arknights where using 300 pulls just barely gives me a roster of6 stars to clear events. In ptn the swuad is 6 people. Having 1 good unit makes a huge difference. In arknights, having an elite 2 weedy not gonna do that much in stages requiring boss fights or elite 2 stats
I have been quite blessed in arknights nikke and path to nowhere aka abyss maze. Having 1 top level healer hamel with the free noc dps unit, allowed me to clear. A lot of content. In arknights however, having flametail and weedt e1, was not nearly enough to clear event stage 7 or 8, let alone challenges without support units. Recently i got thorns pot 1 and silverash mountain, plus shining warfarin ptilopsis. These units made a big difference but not all stages uses them. I am in easier arknights zone than 1 month ago full of e1 4 stars and 5 stars. E1 50, hard night gameplay. Clearing harold boss stage, nightmare even with mylnar.
The biggest difference is elite 2 units. Having about 4 to 6 of em makes a huge difference. And that absolutely requires time and farming for mats and xp.
Ayo someone summoned the Arknights hivemind? 😊
the first video recommended after this one is
Kirara, The Best of the "Worst"
E2 mostima being your favorite is so real, can we be oomfs
Yes, sure! You can see my ingame in the first ten seconds, unfortunately I can't comment it or my comments get deleted for some reason :|
Welcome and Enjoy your stay
Welcome
welcome new doctor 🍻
As someone who plays since 2020, I can confirm that myself is indeed a masochist
That stage gave me headache. I never touched that stage ever again. I would rather beat Frostnova and Patriot than doing that stage again.
The hivemind are watching over you.

Where did you got the 270 pulls in 4 months count from? :0
Dailies, Weeklies and Annihilation, Events, A ton of Originite Prime from Main story and also events, monthly orundum and tickets from the shop.
I've been way to addicted to this game since I started playing in February ^^
Someone know what is the name of the website on 2:55?
That's oldwell.info :D
Nice, Arknights
Whats the name of website at 2:55? Is that from a website right? Cmiiw
That's oldwell.info :D
pls... tell me something, the clear of the level R8-8 (the level you show in the background) having Kafka in the squad.... is your clear? because if it is..... lets be friends pls. i never actually see someone using Kafka very often, and that makes me happy in some way i guess
by the way. good video, welcome to the game. i dont have so more than a year in the game, but yeah. welcome :b
Also, thank you for your kind words ^^
@@estrange0 no problem my friend :b
Yes, it's my clear. RUclips doesn't register my comments for some reason lol
Nice to see I've got another Kafka enjoyer besides me ^^
She's really versatile in most stages so I always have her in my roster
@@estrange0 nice! I never try to use her in that stage.
i have to agreed with you, she is super versatile, sometimes she give you the time to deploy or to active a skill of other operator even with her first skill she can stop the attack of some enemies or make the enemies get close to each other and with that make a Aoe attack more efective. Basically a very versatile operator
probably a bait take but calling genshin, a game where 1.0 units, 4 stars even, can compete very close to units who just got released, a "crash grab" is insane.
Honestly no, I've played it for quite a while (AR53) and the amount of hours you have to sink into this game just to get enough primo gems to pull for characters is insane. It's clearly designed for whales and not as free to play friendly as Arknights by a long shot. Or at least that's my take
@@estrange0 1.0 F2P player, c4 furina, c3 raiden, c2 klee...
ak has to have better rates ofc, you have a 12 slot squad and you can use almost all of them at once in battle meanwhile genshin only needed 8 for years until more recently with the new mode.
ak also does not have a guarantee nor a low pity(only recently they decided to add pity too), you dont know how many pulls I wasted on stainless last banner just for nothing, if that was in genshin, that would mean my next 5 star was closer, in ak it meant I had less pulls for walter, nothing more.
dont get me wrong, to me both have really good pros and cons, buying a 6 star character from the shop is amazing but knowing my mavuika is a guarantee is just as amazing.
I agree with the pity part, I do have to mention though that in Arknights, pulls can be farmed waaaay easier. The end game content in genshin just simply rewards too few pulls so you have to manually do the exploration things, which is honestly just pain. In Arknights meanwhile, you can auto some stages, get your daily and weekly Originium and can just auto everything except the events, which is just way more friendly for casual players. You can also just buy operators in the shop, which is HUGE and amazing for f2p players whereas in genshin, you don't have that luxury
@@estrange0 60x7(a week of dailies) = 420, 420/160(one pull)= 2,6 pulls per week, less than ak annihilation with 3 pulls huh?
lets see, 420x4(a month) = 1680(a ten pull)
1600 + 800+800( end game reset every 15 days)=3200
20 pulls per month
ak now, 4x 1800 = 7200 from annis + 5000 from dailies = 12200
20,3 pulls per month
but then you remember genshin has events every few days which give around 3 - 4 pulls, big events giving a bit more.
it has exploration which gives pulls once ofc but you can always do it later so no fomo and they stack a lot cuz game is huge, it has quests and side quests every month that give you a lot of extra pulls if you do them, it has the trees which reward you for exploring with even more pulls.
ak has like, two events per patch, most of them give a ten pull but then again, womp womp if youre not a new player and just cry in the corner with no OP cuz you already cleared that event so in the end they just... feel the same.
you said exploration was pain and um, I believe thats why you didnt clicked with genshin; the game wants you to explore and its what genshin is, you just dont like exploration and thats ok, its pain for you, not for me.
I dont know whats the hype about autoing stuff when its a game and genshin now has a thing where you spend more time booting up the game than doing dailies cuz you can craft like 3 condensed resins and gg, got my dailies done.
honestly ak decided to auto stuff in the worse possible way; reverse1999 has an auto where you choose how many runs you do then do the run actually once( on 3x spd) and boom, you get the rewards for the amount of runs. in ak? "oh you want 6 runs? gl watching 6x 2min runs then".
and I already talked about being able to buy ops is cool and yea its a good feature but I also said that, you know, not worrying about IF I will get my next target with genshin's guarantee is just as cool, do not forget ak never has reruns for limiteds, I had to farm 300 pulls to spark my skalter.
Compelling arguments honestly, maybe it's just my genshin hate speaking cuz I lost my 50/50 4x in a row xD
I'd also argue that Arknights has its originite prime, which can also be used for orundum and can be obtained from normal stages and event stages. In my opinion, Arknights is way less grindy than Genshin (doing events, exploration, etc), which I love as honestly I don't have any free time outside of school cuz of the videos currently so that's a big plus for me. But you're probably right that I'm not the intended target audience. But yeah, probably depends on the person. If you're fine with spending more time then Genshin would be more interesting for you
Welcome to Arknights, youll meet ALOT of words, bunch of very "happy" moments and super easy bosses like Damazti and Izumik!
my take is... you're not getting full arknights experience without kataoka-san :) :) :) :) :) (yes, I need help)
head dive into concrete please
@@caffy5968nah bro don't do him like that
How many other games have a worse gacha system than FGO?
Add friend pls?
Yep, you can send me a request, my ingame is shown at the beginning of the video, for some reason youtube doesn't let me spell it out
I will wait for your onlyfan
