Hello.
So the game came out (obviously). Been playing since day 1.
Never played any of these types of games before.
So here are my thoughts (feedback?) so far.
Currently sitting at lvl45, got Rank1 of Faction Wars, currently Ranked 120 in Ranked Battle, and Anbu star1 or Arena.
Not saying these to brag. I'm saying this so it maybe gives some value to what I say, as I consider myself some1 who got a pretty good understanding of the game.
I absolutely love events, free stuff for achieving goals is always good and fun and rewarding.
Ranked Battle: This is the most disliked aspect of the game for me. I hate how I have absolutely 0 control over the action of the fight.
Can't target who to use skills on, can't decide which skills I want to use... This results in frutration when you know you could win. But the game Decided it's wise to waste your silence on XY ninja, when you see the Fire Starter casting his big AoE nuke... or seeing the game throw out Sasuke's "Chidori", when your Lightning Mains "Chidori Blade" is ready and could cripple your enemy with paralyze, but no. Let's give a free round to the enemy for no logical reason.
Simply put: Forced Auto needs to go from Ranked Battle. Too much luck in it without any player control.
Arena: This feels like the real Ranked for me. Skill groups, equal stats, only formation and your decision making on skill useage decides the outcome. Loving it. I feel like if I lose, I can learn from it, and react to it next time appropriately.
Faction Wars: I have a So-So feeling about this.
I love the idea of it, 3 factions against eachother battling out for dominance. I don't like that Gear/Refinement has such an impact that it does currently.
It mostly results in luck.
Luck in getting in the faction that is stacked with top players, luck in finding enemies with lower Power then you, luck in... A little too much luck. But I still have fun in it. Personally I would love if Gear/Refinement didn't had an impact in it, but that's probably just me :)
Nine-Tails Event: Not to my liking. I like that it's free gold and coupon. I don't like the bonus stat/instant revive system.
Overall I really really enjoy the game. Honestly much more then I ever anticipated.
I love how friendly it is to Free to Play players, I love how much depth the game mechanics have (beside Ranked Battle, that's just a no brainer).
Can't wait to see more awesome stuff in the game in the future.
Please keep in mind that these are my thoughts, I don't plan to speak in the name of any1 else or try to force it onto others.
Have fun :)
