Previous Thread:

The nice, comfy threads are over.

Both of them are so different I don't think it's fair to conpare

The first event was a grand sweeping epic about stopping the islands from falling while establishing the firm laws of the universe. It truly felt like a celebration of all Granblue was and even introduced a now fan favorite character

The second is a character study on said character. He goes from being a rebellious teen to being a lonely soul trapped in an endless cycle of depression culminating in him stepping out of his shell into the new world that he now realizes welcomes him with or without the one he loves. Also firmally introduced the big bad of the granblue universe,Gran/Djs antithesis and an extremely entertaining villian in the form of Beelzebub and Belial.

If you prefer Granblue when it's about action and adventure then the first is superior. If you prefer Granblue for it's characters and how it treats them then the second is superior. I personally prefer the second but I love both

I want to be Belial's onahole!

/u/ and fags should die, or never get their waifus/husbandos

>What Makes the Sky Blue was supposed to be a hetero Lyria event
>turned into this garbage degenerate homo pandering shit

What's the best element and why?

I need to start spending my dama bars and sunlight stones.

Fire

What is interesting about Beelzebub? We learn almost nothing about him except that he's a singularity. All he does is stab Lucifer with a deus ex machinae stick and then disappear for the rest of the event.
I really wish I could see what you see in the event. It sounds really fun if that was the case, for me it was a bunch of really bad characters boring me.

self insert fags should die, or never get their waifus/husbandos

Shut up Lucifer just died.

Potatoes!
I wanna MASH them!

jus b urself

I enjoyed the event, but I do feel like at some point cygames forgot this is supposed to be the story of Gran and Lyria's adventures through the sky, and decided what we actually need is lots of gay angels.

Why?

>Gran/Djs antithesis
that implies character
stop that

The girls are hot. E

You have some good points, but I do think that part 2 falls into the sequel problem that seems so common these days. You get a movie, or a game, or some other kind of story, it's good, it's successful, and it's a self contained story.

Then because of the success sequels get made, and it's especially common in movie trilogies but often the second seems to do nothing but meander and set up for the third entry, which to me at least often makes the second feel weaker than the first in spite of whether I enjoyed it or not.

Please no fucking the belial, you have no idea where his dick has been

Play wind and you won't have to spend either

I hope you'll roll only male dwarves from now on

Yeah, that about crystallizes my feelings about the event. It feels like at some point they reacted to the criticism of "Gran and Djeeta are flat self inserts with no characterization" with "Well that being the case, lets focus on other characters completely!"

you know what baffles me the most?
that gran is fucking USELESS since the start of the part I
won't do fuck all for part II
may as well not even be in the party for part III
how can the very protagonist be so fucking useless when everything is supposed to be revolving around him

Lyria is deeply boring and Gran is faceless and generally mute. The game is way too old to be correcting those fundamental problems.

Designed for human mashing!

>entertaining villain
>Beelzebub
I'll give you Belial since he's a massive pervert with a sexy voice but Bubs just showed up to shank lucifer and get shanked by sandal.

In anons' mouths!
Is anniversary going to be the BIGGEST

>Gold
>pick up 300 crystals from no limit tab!
>nothing in tab
K M RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

At this point I just see Gran/DJ as Mad Max style characters, they're just gateways into the universe for us to follow, they're ultimately unimportant.

By antithesis I just mean him being a singularity. We got so little of him I don't think he's interesting either but we have Belial for that. I'm hoping WMTSB3 talks more about him so he's less of an enigma

BIGGEST single rolls

This event is everything wrong with GBF.

This makes me wonder in Other Mobages does the MC actually do shit or do they all stay on the Side lines like Gran?

Belial was entertaining. Beelzebub was not, we had barely any time to learn anything about him and they're definitely aiming to drop most of his exposition in part 3.

Everything revolves AROUND you, you just stand there and look how all the people you attracted do shit for you. It's great being a singularity, you don't have to do shit, you just "stab the creature" at the end and take all the credit.

That being said, have a great night /gbfg/.

When is magnafest? Why are the raids still have 30 AP?

Brave Exvius they do stuff I guess

But Max is 10x more interesting than Gran. The problem is that Gran and Djeeta are uninteresting BY the standards of self insert blank slates. The whole point of blank slates is to allow you to define their nature, but gbf makes this worse by not even bothering to develop that nature. Blank slates that never change or develop are literally pointless.
The old "farmboy with no real past who discovers magic sword" high fantasy trope does not end with the farm boy still being a farm boy who has no skills or personality.

What the fuck actually happened there anyway? Sandals violently ran him through and then went after Belial and then he was fine seconds later

Gran actually has an appearance and occasionally gets to perform some kind of action in various scenes. That's better than many.

This event pushed me back to KanColle.
Didn't even last a few hours before coming back.

Spam EX+, host nm90s only, the usual fare. I joined a ton of my crews nm90-100s too and mvped for more tokens. Basically, the key to not using so many pots is leeching nm100

Is Rackam in Tia's fate?

some Magic bull shit where the stab didnt work on him or someshit

...

>didn't get shit from the lottery
Maybe next month.

>gold stage
Fuck me. I completely forgot about that.

I'm with you bro. If only this JOP game had an English translation. Fuck this game -.-

Sorry I didn't mean for it to sound like I was slotting Beel with Belial there. He's purely an enigma+singularity at the moment but I am excited for WMTSB3 to clarify him. Maybe.
Yeah the biggest flaw with the event is it's not a very good anniversary event. If it was in a different month then I'd be more satisfied with it in that respect. Plus it's purely for Sandalphon and setup for 3 as you said. Whether or not it delivers on it we'll have to wait a year to see

...

Anyone else think Cygames wasted Lucifer's potential by offing him so quickly? He barely shows up in the end of the first anniversary and the second anniversary event rolls around and he's already dead, in a rather anti-climatic manner. It would have been nice to have at least one event where he could show off some of the extent of his abilities and personality. It would have made his death a little more meaningful to players.

This event is utter buallshit. A load of hype and setup that leads to fucking nothing.

A shit tier event only to pander to fujofaggots. Theyre not even hiding it with this faggot ass leather daddio with a variety of fetishes.

They killed an established lore character to redeem an insufferable cunt that cannot be redeemed.

Thats like killing off rosetta to redeem furias.

And i dont even know why. Clearly not money since fujofaggots dont spend money on the game.

This event is as shallow and superfluous as the people that like sandalphon

WTF. Extreme now has grain drop too?

I find more bullshit the way Lucifer died.

>a year
We're getting part 3 in a few days.

After staying up way too long playing the event last night, I fell asleep and had a dream Belial broke into my home, angry at me. But when he approached me, he grabbed my chin and started biting my ear and neck. Then made out with me before telling me the police were surrounding my house.
I'm not gay.
Why did I have this dream. It ruined my day.

>this picture is not photoshopped

I cant stop laughing.

>its about to get even gayer because white day soon
Fuck this game, honestly.

I love my cunnywife!

That's what the main story is for, and even there it's more about everyone else than it is Gran/DJ. You only occasionally get any input on what to say and it never changes anything. You're just there to clear mobs.

Thats the main reason this event is so shit. It could have been "okay" if it didn't off such a major character for no particular reason. I don't even like him in Granblue much at all, but it's still bullshit. It would be like killing off one of the core crew members for no payoff.

Are we? There was no to be continued like there was last year.

>its 2018 and Light still using cosmic sword

Cosmic weapons are cool, to be honest. They should buff cosmics to make them more relevant or release a new tier of them.

Kancolle's gameplay (heh) is so outdated. I mean, fucking morale system and mission limit? I hope phase 2 is more than just a new platform transfer.

>birthday was like a week ago now
>tfw have to hear almost 200 birthday messages before tomorrow or will feel bad about my crew

Is anything CyGames made well written, really? Genesis was okay, I guess, but does that really count?

It'll be the BIGGEST surprise from kmr!

Honestly this event felt like just a massive setup for part 3 of the event what makes it worse is that we gotta wait another year for it

I'm honestly tempted to just make a second Ultima Sword for light to mainhand since my current one is on dirt instead of making something different for memes and fun.

>no free 10 rolls

WTF????????

RoB and Shadowverse are a lot better, I think. Maybe because they're cribbing more heavily from other source material like mythology and high fantasy, and not just shitting out their own ideas.

do u rike it

Wait a minute.I just realized that the viewers might stop working when they switch to HTML5. wtf?!

translate it weebs

Wait for the anniversary to start.

But did you wake up with a boner?

There was no to be continued last year either you stupid cunt. Dont presume to talk about shit you werent present for

...

This is the countdown. 10 rolls are probably coming on anniversary March 10th.

You do realize they've given up on it? There will never be a phase, they only announced it so retards would keep playing in hopes everything will get better.

Sheesh

Priconne is well written.

The elemental boost is nice, but ultima sword DA feels kind of wasted on light with so many light characters having auto DA.
CR + GW dagger is enough for autospam for me until they release a real data ougi MH for light.

>tfw you have more chance to farm Grain doing Ex than doing Nightmare.
WTF I love Satan now.

are there translations posted anywhere

It says that Rosetta is an old hag

I want to lick Rosetta clean after a day of workout.

Is it? Is it REALLY?

>you will never have an ultima sword
Why did they have to lock important shit behind being able to socialise and interact with other players.

Yes there was you fucktard, Gran got thrown off the goddamn island, which led into part 2 of that event, this event is completely done, and runs until the 10th at which point rotb starts. There is no "part 3 in a few days."

>its about to get even gayer because white day soon
Love this game, honestly.

Very Hard in part I was dropping grains like candy. I feel like they fucked something up with part I, I haven't seen any grains in part II.

>Love Eternal
Who does she love eternally?

And what the fuck is this nignog bullshit where we didnt kill sandalphon even though we should have,but lucifer gets his head cut off and his body taken by belial? Rackam coudve put a bullet in furias head so many times but NOW people can get killed all of a sudden?

Fuck off cyjew

Yes.
Is it over for me?

Me.

Should I get the sunstone to MLB Baha or should I memepick zeph?

I feel like the 4koma guys are always trying real hard to bait Kakage into drawing new JK art.

>Get platinum stage all the time.
>Cept when the store boost comes along.
>Silver.

Yeah nah, what is this shit? Least I got Grand Lecia to make up for it.
