I've played a lot of gacha games before, and am pretty jaded to the genre. However, Epic7 does not feel like a gacha game to me much at all. My favorite aspects are the stories, quests, and other content by far! I will say that the prices for ingame purchases are really high, in my opinion. I'd spend money on the game to support it if the cost/value ratio were better. You do not need to spend money on the game in order to do well, though, and the game to me is not play to win.
Reviews for Epic Seven x Frieren
← Back to Epic Seven x FrierenPlays very well on Nox emulator so far, having rerolled my account roughly 82 times through the tutorial. The GMs are quite kind to start off players with generous gifts right now, so it's highly recommended to start playing while they're still at it. It's quite fair for a gacha game, if you look at FGO's rates. The cinematic-style animations are the main draw for me though - they're incredibly high-quality, and to its credit as a Hero Collector game, I do want to collect as many as possible just so I can see their skill animations. Do note that the voice packs are in either English or Korean; sadly there's no Japanese voice packs, at least not yet. But here's to hoping!
This game brings nothing special to the table. The campaign story and dialogue is all right. You can have your team auto but there are some cases in which you might want to go manual to get yourself out of tough spots. This isn't an action game and is more of a set it and forget it kind of game. So far I haven't had large issues with understanding things but the game does throw a decent amount of things at you as you progress so you'll have to plan out how to make the most out of your time and stamina. The game seems to be geared more towards people that spend a lot of time on their phones gaming instead of the casual mobile gamer that maybe goes on to play for a few minutes to an hour per day during some free time. The gacha rates are horrendous and make you wonder if there's even a point in having a rate up banner if you're not even guaranteed a 4-star after X number of pulls like other games do. To date I haven't seen any pull guarantees or step-up gacha events in this game so I have no incentive to put money towards the gacha system.Your pulls are diluted between "artifact" support cards and characters. Having a large roster of both artifacts and characters would be best to take different scenarios into account. So far I've been able to progress in the game by building mainly 1 team but you'll need a large roster of characters to be a completionist and meet all mission objectives in missions. For the reasons above this game gets very little of my attention. 2.5/5 for being "just okay".
The new U.I. is not great, and having to scroll through one extra menu compared to the old U.I. where I had everything there is kinda annoying. Along with that, the loss of the map kinda loses a lot of the charm the game had. I liked the exploring of the map and the side parts gave nice spotlights to others and really dislike the lack of battle, as I liked grinding out characters in those PvE levels as it gave me a chance to tweak their builds and test out new characters.
as someone who played since 2018. game was fun when a friend recommended it. over the last year or so tho, the company has made some very bad calls. selling gear with newer units, cutting content when they need more stuff to do. yes they added new stuff but at cost of content that they didn't need to cut. gear grind is extremely rng dependant. the current arena situation is the worst to. there's no variety of teams to fight. it's all just tank down with same 3-4 teams an boring as heck. not fun
One of the best mobile gachas I've ever played, and I've played quite a few. The story as well as the world is well-crafted, the characters are well thought-out and the character models and animations are easily top-tier. I've only just finished the 6th World episode, but it was enough to show me the love and effort that was put into this amazing game. The only thing that I found slightly disconcerting was the luck I had trying to pull a 5 star character, but everyone has different luck so 🤷🏼
I have played this game from the beginning. once I even had it at 5 star. however, I have seen the decline of the game. they have made good improvements in features, however the quality of the characters has gone down. I am not interested in school themes with existing characters. it went from an epic fantasy to something else. that is unfortunate.
Returned after a few years and decided to create and play with a new acc since i forgot almost everything and I can say this game is more newbie friendly than it's have ever been. The origin update is very good you can get a lot of heroes and artifacts.The new guide is better compared to the old. The voiceover story is the best part for me and I wish there was more of this. The new interface felt good too. It's the Best time to try out the game if you are an old returning player or a new player.
An aging game that's struggling to remain fun. The grindy nature of the game has long been tough but it's entering a stage where everything feels slow and just... boring. New modes appear now and then which is nice. The biggest issue is once again that the game doesn't respect your time - almost all modes don't have a quick battle or skip option meaning you press buttons to watch the game auto for hours on end.
The game was perfect, at least for the duration of 3 to 4 years, but starting from the major guild war overhaul, the game started losing it's unique features, losing it's identity, update after an update. An now, a complete overhaul, that made the game almost unrecognizable to me, i'v been playing it for 4 consecutive years now. The last update is buggy, hard to navigate around, and i dislike the new UI, it's just bad
For several years, this game remained the best gacha game in the world, but this update has destroyed Epic Seven. Several things have changed for the worse, but I'm going to list the two major ones: 1. Terrible new UI. Can't find the storage for artifacts. This is a major problem. I pulled Guard Captain Krau's artifact twice, and both copies are missing. 2. No more hero transmission. This was a great feature, and now it's gone.
made a $29.99 purchase, received an Error message, and was billed twice while not receiving my items. also, used play points $8 off and wasn't refunded my money, the $8 coupon, or receive the items I was charged twice for. I'm giving it 5 days to get a resolution and if I don't, I'm deleting the game and never playing another game from this horrendous developer.
Outside of the aesthetic and turn based combat, there isn't much to like here. First, the game doesn't respect your time. You have to manually start every single stage, even though this game requires grinding. Second, there is no way to choose what units you can get. Want a certain character? Good luck with that. Third, I am simply tired of games where 90% of the characters are female.
Worst UI design i have ever seen in my entire life. Most convoluded, annoying menu navigation ever. I watched 3 uninspired cutscenes and can now no longer progress. Not to mention, even if I could, the events are shoved to the top and you have to dig and claw your way through to get to the main story, which once again, I can't even progress. I can't unlock anything. Everything is locked. Why should I need a tutorial to GET to a tutorial? It's ridiculous. Immediate uninstall.
I decided to come back after a 3+ yrs but theres still problems. -energy: remove it so people will play longer with more to do. -story: adjust the difficulty to make it easier for players to get one time rewards. -currencies: still way too many and needs to be simplified. -RNG: I understand but tone it down as it's in every aspect of the game. -packs: still overpriced for what you get. A game is supposed to be enjoyable and not feel like a job you hate.
Ever since Dragalia Lost ended service with no hope of it ever returning in any capacity, I've been looking for the game that could fill it's niche on Android, and I think this might be it. Like Dragalia, the battles are straightforward, the art style is nice and colorful, and the characters and world are brimming with personality. I also appreciate a gacha game that's generous with free pulls. The story's nothing special, but it's done well. The menus take some getting used to, though.
Used to love playing this game. I put many hours into it, enjoyed a lot of the story, and then, suddenly, the new "remix" of the game hit, and I can't log on. Tried everything I could, just wouldn't work. Reading what other reviews have said, losing out on all of the progress and money I put in for this supposed redo I don't know who asked for is a real bummer :(
I have been playing this game for about 45 days now. I have enjoyed the game until very recently. Having spent a little bit of cash on it (about 200.00$) only to find that in order to really progress at any enjoyable rate i would need to spend a lot more i find myself quickly loosing interest. You will not progress through the endgame at a reasonable pace without spending a lot of money, no joke. It is a very fun game though, take it for what it is; a fun, time consuming slot machine!
from Year 1 to Year 7 it was a very high and low Rollercoaster ride. The new UI overhaul while being very simplistic and modern in touch, it felt a little bit underwhelming because how unappealing it has become less immersive. But at the same time give some good navigation easiness. The PvE content haul also makes it more simplistic yet felt a little bit weak at the same time giving easy to progress, hopefully they'll give a new spark on the next big update, still have high hopes.
I cant support the recent decisions in the game. Powercreep is terrible but I play around it. What I can't accept is limited time events being locked behind story. I play this game pretty causally, but I am still in a decent guild who is currently top 600. I can't always constantly keep up with the story and have always done it at my own pace. Recently, they have locking time limited events behind story such as zieg. I missed it and perhaps will miss more. UI changes need to be changed.
