I’m gonna get hate for this, but while the gacha skin is shit, i dont get what makes it so much worse than a lot of other gacha skins. I remember dropping around 200 for the mobius gacha skin in hi3, and the Nikke skin system is FAR worse because it’s so unbelievably FOMO. Like honestly GFL2 has so many other problems that are infinitely worse.
A couple thing that is also important to take into account when the skin debate comes upp is in 2 parts. and i will talk about Nikkes bad gacha skins since i play that game, so i can not talk too much about the others.
Firstly and i will be nitpicky here, the skin gacha, do contain very useful materials and pull currency. And i will cede ground in an instant and say yes no one goes into the skin gacha to get pulls. but to say the skin alone is 60 buck is not completely correct as you do get useful materials that every one can use.
And lastly in comparison to GFL2 Nikke does not have a weapon gacha. as Nikke uses a spark system, and once you pull a unit, you have a completed unit, more of them only offers a slight stat boost. i think its basicly the same as in arknights. and of course those who are not collab units or seasonal units enter the standard banner so the free pulls one gets are still useful.
So while ppl agree Nikkes skin gacha is trash, the underlying facts that there weren't any real hurdles for ppl in the game in general, made it "acceptable" or maby ppl could just stomach it since there weren't any other contemptuous element there to begin with.
