This thinking (what you said in the first half of this comment) is exactly why ppl who actually are interested in dress up games like the Nikki series don’t want yall here 👍
Thank you for giving such a genuine review & not overly simplifying it as just some "girly game". Guys can like to dress up & play this stuff too!! Fun thing to Note: Infinity Nikki is made by the same company as Love and Deepspace, Infold Games! 💛
She stands different based on the "theme" of the outfit. There is a theme score on every piece of clothing so if you equip something that has high "Cool" or "Sexy" stats, she will change her pose to look cool or look sexy.
1:50 Kind of? So some special abilities _are_ locked behind paywall but no ability NEEDED to clear the game is locked behind paywall. Like there's an outfit that let's you "draw graffiti" which is really just adorable doodles that float in the air, or the new skin from the event that lets you blow bubbles like one of the bosses. They're there for fun not for function. There are also gacha outfits that can be used in place of the free outfits and they sometimes modify the ability but nothing that significantly affects the gameplay (like the 5-star Fairy outfit is technically a downgrade to the free outfit because you have to _constantly tap to glide_ instead of just _press once to glide and again to stop_ but you can set it to the F2P glide mode with the outfit as a reskin). Everything else is cosmetic changes. The only time the gatcha "feels" necessary is for the stylist duels but really there are in game craftables for everything that would let you clear any challenge if you just max out their level. As far as gachas, go this is by far and away the most fair one I've come across since original Overwatch (where the boxes could be earned 100% free and the cosmetics had 0 effect on gameplay).
The fairy floating ability actually gives you a bit more hang time than the bubble outfit, you don't even have to tap the button that constantly, just enough not to break your spacebar I do notice that if you accidentally let go of the button, you don't drop down as fast with the fairy floating as to the bubble outfit if you float a second time during the drop
Actually, their duration is the same. The outfit lottery doesn’t affect the game experience but can make certain situations easier. Plus, the lottery outfits are really beautiful.@@pripripriscilla1897
I'm well on my way to finishing that heart bubble outfit, and honestly it's rather doable free. Just gotta make sure to spend the pulls you can get through paying the game wisely.
This is every adult's dream that we wished for as a child, like the way many of us dropped other gacha games for Infinity Nikki is crazy. Infold is going places with love and Deepspace and now Infinity Nikki. And yes, they're a Chinese company.
Having such a female centric game like this came from China is just crazy. Aren't they famous for promising you to sleep with woman as their tech job ads?
I'm enjoying this game very much, just walking around trying clothes and taking photos on itself is extremely relaxing, the music, story and "rpg-like" open world exploration are an added bonus
Really loving this game and glad theres a cool open world gacha game that doesn't over sexualize it's characters, it's a really refreshing change for me
Fun fact. Way back in the summer beta, the daily quest UI looked a lot more like the HSR UI. Thankfully, it was changed to be based around the wishing bottles, which is a lot more flavorful and cute.
Le me... Crying right now because I only had one last piece of Butterfly 5 star outfit left. But I didn't have enough diamonds. I hope they have reruns.
I REALLY love this game! Also the voice acting in Genshin I usually never want to play in english, but in Nikki i really enjoy it. No overpitched annoying voices and Momo is SO MUCH cooler and feels like an actual companion, than Paimon. Love that you tried out Nikki. Would love to see more of you playing it!
I genuinely feel so relaxed the second the game loads up every time c: When I first started playing on day 1, I didn’t even realize how relaxed I felt until about an hour or so later, I didn’t even think I’d end up liking the game so much since I’m not 100% a girly girl. It’s one of my top 3 favorite games now c:
Haha this is me too! I have spent more time exploring/finding chests/caves to go into/ and yes, stopping to groom every animal I see lol. The main quest can wait😂
The game is great so far. been playing it for a few days. I started playing a lot of gachas the past few years coming from MMOs and one major issue I had was that because the goal is to roll for characters, there was none I could call "my own." I wanted a game where I could make my own character and dress them up. ToF was the closest but they had limited fashion for the MC and the MC was pretty bland and not relevant. Infinity Nikki was a pleasant surprise when it came out. I was on the fence though since I was getting burned out from gachas. But, yea it was a surprisingly fun game. Although the story isn't impressing me so far, not that most gachas have that great a story, or consistently good story.
When I installed this game on my laptop it literally told me the game may not run smoothly in my laptop and that I need a new device but so far it plays just fine im using a budget gaming laptop 😅
Gacha is cosmetics as for the mobile part well that was expected first Unreal Engine 5 mobile game outside of Fortnite so yeah it's pretty much new grounds that being said the difference between console PC and mobile are insanely different which is a bummer but the game is a ton of fun still
Barbie's concept has always been "woke". Men just hypersexualized everything to do with Barbie/the Barbie aesthetic and now you're mad that Barbie has just continued to be what it has always been.
Barbie has always been woke. They literally created it with different characters to cater to different people, gives her many profession and puts her in different outfits. She can be anything you want. Mattel basically gives what consumers want. Why do you think it's been a few years and they're still doing well? And I say this as a person who grows up watching barbie. Their movie slaps hard. I'll never forget 12 Dancing Princesses and Princess and the Pauper.
@@MakeSureYouCleanUp And? One thing doesn't remove the other. Gacha Games have existed since the early 2000, yet the game that blew the market in the west was Genshin Impact, a 2020 game. D.E.I. politics have made that many people who would never give an f-word about Nikki, suddenly they are now interested because all they want is a confi game with a beautiful lady to dress up. No politics, no wokeism, no bulls**t, just a game. This game could've been called "Princes Fantasy Paradise Rebirth" and it would've have had a similar impact.

I was thinking is this the typical dress up game that only girls can like but now I am here min maxing my dress scores
Inb4 dress style tier list
@@daneespenocilla there's already meta outfits wdym
Men that play this game are attractive
This thinking (what you said in the first half of this comment) is exactly why ppl who actually are interested in dress up games like the Nikki series don’t want yall here 👍
i have prioritized this over all other gachas just because of how chill and genuinely fun it is to log in everyday!
Same, I hope they change the ui back though. I don't like the emphasis on shop

Best coziest stress relief game ever
yeah until Nikki gets herself a handgun.

yeah, whimsical is basically ability that doesn't relate to the game. it's just there to be animation cosmetics.

I do notice that if you accidentally let go of the button, you don't drop down as fast with the fairy floating as to the bubble outfit if you float a second time during the drop
The fairy ability tapping can be deactivated in the menu so that it floats normally.

It takes real man to be best girl😂
Very cute game. I wish I had time for it. IMHO its better than Wuwa world or Genshin.
Manliest gacha on the market.
You should buy out all the items in the boutique then you can get the limited dress that shows on the mannequin in front of the store.
Le me... Crying right now because I only had one last piece of Butterfly 5 star outfit left. But I didn't have enough diamonds.
I hope they have reruns.
Same but flutter storm🥺
Same I was only left with the wings. It hurts more cuz I didn't even do the ocean's blessing thingy🥲
Me with the wings 😢
it's a very good game and plays more like mario or zelda(if link was a mage and wearing cute dresses)
Fun fact I heard one of the developers of Zelda worked on this😊
Her absorbing the whimstar made me wanna download this game
nikki will always be with me, she’s been with me since childhood 😭
It's amazing how beautiful it looks on pc but mobile gamers get Dystopian Nikki lol
I started the game a few days ago while being sick and it really is very chill and cozy. Can recommend if you just wanna unwind 🌟
I REALLY love this game! Also the voice acting in Genshin I usually never want to play in english, but in Nikki i really enjoy it. No overpitched annoying voices and Momo is SO MUCH cooler and feels like an actual companion, than Paimon.
Love that you tried out Nikki. Would love to see more of you playing it!
Cutest game I have downloaded and worth every second

8:27 LOL, I actually ended up making Ryne too at one point. A somewhat similar outfit to hers is in the game 😆
Turing apples into an entrie outfit, yeah that sounds about right lol
Truly one of my favorite games of all times
9:26 Was it intended like this? 😅 Because I have like 40h playtime and I’m only at CN chapter 3…. 👀😅🤭 They did this on purpose.
Haha this is me too! I have spent more time exploring/finding chests/caves to go into/ and yes, stopping to groom every animal I see lol. The main quest can wait😂
@@femmenichahah same I get so distracted I have so many unfinished quests 😅

The real Dress to Impress
I came to know about this game from my story animated and seeing brax video is just soo unexpected..
YESSS NIKKI 💌
This game is best thing what happened to me in 2024
So, whens the FRU clear on the channel :D
i finished all of the main questline today😔
Missed the chance to comment first😅 but will watch this for every like
How is it to play on iPad ? I don’t have a computer!not going to be the same experience I don’t think 😢

It plays amazing on ipad
BARBIE GENSHIN
Haha lol….. I’m a day 1 Genshin player and love that game but I can honestly saying I’m almost enjoying myself more in Infinity Nikki. 😊
imaging a 30+ years old man collecting barbie dolls at home
BraxophoneFan1
I refuse to lose more time and money on another gacha game, it’s too much now 😅😅😅
Dress-up impact LOL ~ YES! Hahaha
Day 2 of Asking Brax To Make Genshin Guides Again
THIS is a CASUAL GAME...
Most masculine game of the year 🗿
Should I play this game?
Yes 😊
I tried and my laptop cannot run this game...i can barely see her face on the lowest resolution... I need a new gaming laptop
When I installed this game on my laptop it literally told me the game may not run smoothly in my laptop and that I need a new device but so far it plays just fine im using a budget gaming laptop 😅
Where is the enemy
Hmm, a dress up gacha, might help me recover from Zzz shitty rerolls
i was gonna ditch this game after 1 or 2 days initially. was gonna...
cinderella ahh game 💀💀
A game for manly men.
Real men play Infinity Nikki. Even Trump, Elon Musk, and Ashton Tate plays this game.
Even Tectone, Asmongold and Mtashed can't stop playing it.
This is barely Gatcha lol
FIRST!!!!!
its not. gacha is horrendous and the mobile version is as terrible as wuwa used to be.
Gacha is cosmetics as for the mobile part well that was expected first Unreal Engine 5 mobile game outside of Fortnite so yeah it's pretty much new grounds that being said the difference between console PC and mobile are insanely different which is a bummer but the game is a ton of fun still
This game is the answer of the public to Barbie going woke.

@@aspectacle5589 Oh, no, I'm not mad at all, I'm just stating some facts. "Go Woke Go Broke"
Barbie has always been woke. They literally created it with different characters to cater to different people, gives her many profession and puts her in different outfits. She can be anything you want.

The Nikki series has existed for over a decade, sit down.
