/arcade/ - vidya gaems and other gaems too

I've been thinking about trying it now that kancolle isn't as popular as it used to be, so I can judge the game on its merits rather than get influenced by hype.

There's not much riveting gameplay at all, it's a management/collection game through and through. Like a more weebish, repetitive pokemon. But it can be quite comfy if you're into the planning aspect, and for me it's been satisfying training up my fleet to the point where all the maps and battles I used to struggle with are ezpz. It might look intimidating with all the guides and hidden mechanics, but it's very slow-paced. You even gain resources from not logging in.

Your experience with the game depends on the goals you set for yourself (do you want to collect all the ships? Complete every event on hard mode? Complete every quest in the game?) But if you want to take it easy, then it's a nice, casual game to unwind and play on the side.

I wish I could get in on it more, I was liking collecting all the shipgirls but sadly I'm broke, need to use the money for something else, and purchasing points is a complete hassle for me.

>purchasing points is a complete hassle for me.
I read this as "purchasing pants"
To be fair, that IS a hassle.

Well pants isn't something you can wear unless you're a woman, I don't see much point to that.
I just wish my debit card was accepted, it would save me having to go through the loop of charging money to paypal by a third party, since Paypal doesn't accept my card either.

Damn this is a good picture
I always want to play Kancolle when I see the pictures of the girls but then I actually look at the "gameplay" and all interest just drains out of me.

I personally liked it because of it, you don't need to pay attention and invest a lot on it (except money, that is a literal investment). I can browse imageboards or play something else while the skirmishes happen or the timers fill out.
The only thing that pisses me off is that, you have to put something akin of 50 dollars to have enough space to collect all the ships

That is very close-minded.

It's better that way

I prefer its competition, AZURE LANE.
