  • I recently returned to Punishing Gray Raven and I am so glad I did. The game has only continued to improve, getting better and better overtime. And we have now entered into the golden era of the game. Which is why I recommend any new players to start the game now. You can easily get Bianca Stigmata through the gacha. Then you'll be able to make the best physical team via the two free S rank selectors they give you. And after assembling a great team you have so much story content to go through, it is amazing. Which is why I'm confident in stating that Punishing Gray Raven is a masterpiece.

    For a bit deeper but not so deep as to why they send in Constructs.
    1. Punishing can melt humans... like literally. One guy felt it in Rolands event.
    2. Like what has been said machines turn into murderhobos.
    So humanity in its great wisdom thought "If humanity's weakness to the virus is its body while the machines weakness is their mind. Why not put human consciousness to a robotic body instead!"
    And spoiler alert
    It did not go as good as they thought.

    PGR is easily my favorite gacha. Right now we entered the "golden age" as Bianca Stigmata just released, one of the strongest characters ever made. Following months will feature similar titans with the culmination in February / March when we will get Alpha Crimson Weave, the most iconic character from the game, which can be seen in tons of PGR boss fights made by YTbers with CN accounts. If you're wondering whether the game is wroth your time: yes, especially now. Tons of free stuff for f2p and great value of money for spenders. Best of all, every new character comes up with 100% rate up banner. It's very easy to get the characters you want. No need to sweat over 50:50. The only gamble is weapons. Those come in 80% rate up banners which, lets be honest, is far better than any similar title offers.
    fucken play it

      Which hits even harder since the pity rates are SIGNIFICANTLY lower sometimes even 1/3rd or 1/5th the hard pity rates of some other games(honkai impact 3rd needing up to 300 pulls for S rank & gear, and 130 pulls for SP suits, genshin & star rails being as much as 180 pulls just for a single 5 star character copy and not accounting for `signature weapons`). In addition to letting you scalp as much as a single rank up (30ish frags) from a game mode with NO GACHA REQUIRED besides owning the unit before hand, that rewards you with currency to get the frags directly, not making the game mode`s major earning being even more gacha currency to flop at pulls instead.
      Punishing gray raven is literally the definition of games can still be gacha but still be excessively more generous and likely still makes a significant profit with likely way less production cost by likely focusing more on giving a polished product then demand more for a Destroyer of Potatoes. AKA the reverse of how newer movies put way too much into development & advertisement that they cant simply settle for breaking even on production cost, they have to usually make TRIPLE what they spent to also re-coup the costs for advertisment, merchandising and investors to be considered `decent`.
      The closest mobile game i recall ever being as generous is cookie run kingdom, because they give shards that pile up to direct purchasing frags as you do gacha, but the grind is alot worst since you need to chase MULTIPLE rank ups on units and they have so many tiers of rarity then just 2 kinds that a large portion of them are just limited time only crap or entirely locked behind paid currency only.
      Anyone beyond that already shuts itself down by not having an actual hard pity system but usually makes it up with a tedious grind system that still relies on rng-sus to acquire `certain characters` to have the right to unlock the form you want via a terrible rng-sus system that is essentially gacha rolls on dungeon clears, except its using resources you get over time instead of resources you get from achievements & spending.

    Finally, a review of PGR that appreciates the lore! The story is so good in the later chapters, it's just a shame not everyone is a fan of the LN style and prefer something more graphical. There are a few minor localization errors here and there but I think the localization team has done a fantastic job with bringing across the beauty of the writing. One thing I'd like to add is that the interludes (character background stories) are, at times, even better than the main one. Your presentation style is easy to follow and entertaining, kudos and have a sub!

    Great review, I think the reason why early chapters are so dull is Kuro planned to have them voice acted at some point but from chapter 9 and forward they said "screw this, lets write the best sci-fi story ever" and so the last few chapters feels like a really good sci-fi novel, this is just my guess don't take it as fact

    Pretty good video overall, I would like to say one thing though: I don't think the lack of voice acting is a budget issue. PGR doesn't pull Genshin amounts of money but it's still doing very well. The limitations Kuro is working around, I believe, is storage space. Voice acting takes A LOT of space and I think PGR chose to be rather lightweight but forsake voice acting

    Tbh I don´t feel like powercreep is even that big of a problem since yeah Stigmata Bianca outshines Abyss Alpha, but 1) Alpha doesn't just become a useless or reduntant unit; 2) you would need max meta team only if you aim for the best scores in Warzone/PainCage/Guild and the difference between rewards between top-score and average score isn't that mindblowing, so you can just take it easy. It's good to have meta units but they are far from necessary if you're a casual player.
    Although first 8 chapters being a slog to read through is quite a a begginer-experience problem, yeah

      The Lost Chapter had voice acting when Qu was having her speech right before the war began. And that shi# hit hard asf. Until now, every time I hear Hikari(the bgm playing in that particular point in that chapter), I remember Qu's speech and me playing her and bruteforcing through corrupted. It really felt like I was in the game. I was so invested in the narrative it was bliss.
      [SPOILER WARNING] ⚠️⚠️🚨
      My similar experiences in each chapter:
      Fake ascension - Lucia and Commandant fighting for Luna.
      Echo Aria - Selena going through literal hell.
      Imprisoned Sight - Chrome being the momma that he is and confronting Vonnegut like a chad.
      Inscription of Labyrinth - The way Roland and Cerberus perspective intersect and converge into them fighting Voodoo.
      Last Spark - Vera and Commandant getting the first glimpse of Atlantis(Not sure if this was the right name of the place), that was majestic and breathtaking, it took me out of my bed and teleported me into the PGR universe.
      Evernight Beat - The story if the three scavengers and only one of them surviving (Roland orchestrated that, he's a literal Clown idk if I love him or hate him lmao), that part of the chapter had me on the edge of my seat for those three.
      Surviving Lucem - Idek where to start. The whole part in the underground basement and Liv singing for them. The woman who gave birth to Cosette. The train incident and Noan dying. The church where everyone fought in their very last breath till Liv comes and saves everyone, she literally absorbed punishing virus in exchange of her suffering for a lifetime because of physical trauma. And inside Liv's mind, she's absorbing punishing virus it only makes sense she's going through hell in her mind, it's almost like broke the matrix and sh#t.

    Great Video. I started playing during PC launch again since I really don't like playing Action games on mobile phones + Heavy motivation Boost from an Alpha Crimson Weave Video. I'm at Chapter 12 now and I'm so hooked to the game and story immensely. I'm not a fan of Novel type writing/style but The writing in this game is so good and immersive that I get lost in it and never get bored I started to like reading again. Combat Is so interactive and feels so good when you know how to play the characters and learn the mechanics.
    Ok, now to Vera. I accidentally got Rozen during my first 10 pull while trying to get No.21. I was curious about her story since I liked her design an am obsessive over the color red+black. And that's when I realized how deep the story telling is in this game even for the characters alone. I haven't felt so emotionally attached to a character that much during character development in other games.
    And then I found Vera: Garnet. My god, really cool design, really good sound effects + visuals, fluid movement, badass combat (Spear Lunge sends me to heaven) and on top of that That an Assertive dominant personality (I wonder if Markiplier would liker her). She carries my Team with ease and it's so fkn fun.

Regardless of her frame, I love her. Her dark support frame is not bad, but holy cow her garnet frame felt so damn good to play.
    Granted that I could not play everyday nor could I spend alot of money, but i managed to obtain most of the units i want. This game is, as you have said, a 9/10 masterpiece. My -1 however is due to the difference we have compared to CN server in term of schedules/free time between events.

    This is a masterpiece That will never leave my phone. I may uninstall all other games but this one is staying. I was lucky to start at a good time on Crome Glory patch because I was able to get the best Selena Skin for free.

Oh and I wish you showcase a full rotation team instead of just a snipet for the gameplay cuz it was way too fast and inexperienced people who havent played PGR won't know what they are looking at. Oh and Un showcase would be nice too cuz they are hella fun to play even tho they are unrelated to the meta

    16:03 Advice for new players out there, if you meet the situation you can actually just invest in A ranks(with leaps). The A ranks in this game are actually pretty good, an invested Vera Rozen can out perform Selena depend on the team comp she's in. And a full A rank team can at least let you stay on Elite Warzone.
    I know it costs a lot of resources to fully leap an A rank character or get them to SSS but those resources won't go to waste even if you get their S rank replacement later on because you will need them for Babel anyway.
    Same case for un characters, a team of 3 different elements random uns will carry you to at least Elite Warzone, and can still be useful for Operation Un and Babel later on.

    • @thisisshite
      @thisisshite 11 месяцев назад +1

      TLDR build Watanabe Astral, leap him and use him until Lamia comes out (s rank dark attacker, less than a year from now)
      He’s really strong and you can SS him easily

    I started this game when It started on global when looking for a game similar to honkai, I'm so glad i pulled thorugh the first chapters, while the story itself its a bit too despair fueled for my taste the writing is amazing in latest chapters and the gameplay quickly became the best action gacha currently, I also agree that more people should play it

    • @JustCheppo
      @JustCheppo 11 месяцев назад +4

      The first chapters did a good job of showing rather than telling how bad the current situation is. True at first, it shows despair, but as it progresses, you also see how resilient humanity is not by seeing the major characters struggle but seeing how some of the common folks survive in this mess. And I think that's something only a few games do.

  • @SuperHexer123
    @SuperHexer123 11 месяцев назад +7

    PGR is one of those games where i don't feel bad spending on it because I have visible proof that money spent is going back into the game. All you need to do is look at the Rosetta fight, a classic that people went crazy for originally.....then look at the second most recent fight with lamia and its night and day not only with the boss spectacle, but the construct spectacle as well.
    Also genuinely I'm not bothered by negative events stories too much, but chapter 17 DID THINGS to me. After that first third I legit had to step away for the night which is something that has never happened. I was just empty and broken.....10/10 would recommend.

    Around 4 months ago, I had time to try out Punishing Gray Raven thanks to Tsunal's recommendation.
    HOLY it was amazing. The writing quality was absolutely top notch. Some of these stories rank as some of my favourite stories in fiction period. I especially like the Kowloong battle chapter, Extra Story 3, Extra Story 4, Chapter 17(of course) and Chapter 16 Hidden Story. Kurogame's writing strength to me lies in depicting characters emotions in very difficult situations and grand narratives.
    It was absolutely peak. You have my gratitude for recommending me this Tsunal

    Coming as first day from Alpha vs Rosetta gameplay, now look how it grow in CN version it's really insane and I'm proud of KuroGoat despite being underrated AF
    Personally I think Newbie problem is just resources management because how much Serum it need to upgrade characters
    IMO getting the old S-rank also quite unnecessary unless you want to be competitive
    A-ranks already good and some have leap upgrade, still it doesn't cover all the roster it still lacking ( RIP A-rank Fire/Ice tank haven't exist yet) (ChangWho)
    Future character have much more depth gameplay which make it better and future A-ranks Attacker like Noctis and BRS also having Next Gen mechanic which really good for Newbie and Casual players to play and enjoy

    I've been playing this game every since it dropped and i have not regretted my decision, watching my roster grow and the story that has left my tissue budget dry from all the crying I've done be constantly improving is truly something I'm glad to be part of.
    Needless to say, this one's a keeper for all wanting a solid action game and a forgiving and f2p friendly gacha. Hell I can recommend this game on the fact that the gear isn't full of random stats you have to keep spending resin to get just to be complete dogshit (cough), all gear have the same stats, the only stats you roll for are optional upgrades which are easy to do because the game showers you in it's currency by just playing the game.
    I've never felt the need to swipe my card, everything i got was from just playing when i felt like it and taking part in every event the game gives, and I have a bunch of skins and almost all the frames without a single cent spent.
    Peak game.
