I've been playing this game since launch and I've spent a good chunk of money on it (Got Klukai and Springfield V6), but I just don't see myself staying with this game in the upcoming years. It just became tedious and there have been no signs of improvement. In fact, it just gets worse every update.

I love the IP, the execution is just disappointing. The game looks like an XCOM-like game, but that's basically just a facade. The game is piss easy and the 'heroic' mode, which is an entirely optional hard mode, just showers you with debuffs, making enemies HP sponges. It's not even hard. It just makes the stage more tedious.

The story is in a standstill. It takes forever to get to the next point of the story since they keep putting out side events just so they can sell the current gacha character. Something I found scummy was the back-to-back meta dolls during the Klukai -> Springfield banner.

>Klukai (Extremely meta)
>Mecthy (Meta for the Klukai team)
>Vector (Extremely meta for the fire team)
>Yoohee (Good, but will come into play later. Skippable)
>Zhaohui (lol)

After Zhaohui, it was supposed to be the Peri solo banner which would've given you more time to save, but sike, we got:

>Peri and Springfield banner at the same time (Springfield is extremely good)

By the time Springfield came out on CN, they already had the pull rebate (Doritos) in place, while we got nothing. It only came out after the Springfield banner ended.

Other than the dolls, story, the gameplay loop also gets old after a few months. You can't even auto some of them, and they refresh frequently, making them a commitment. The main offender is the 'Gunsmoke Frontline' gamemode which is a bimonthly boss that you and your guild members try to kill individually, and the more damage you do, the more points you get.

The thing is, almost every Gunsmoke is the same.
>Giant enemy smack dab in the middle of the screen
>A few gimmicks to make you earn more damage (Debuff management, Clumping your units, etc.)
>The boss does multiple long animations that look threatening but only actually hit you for like 5-10% hp if you're playing the game right
>Rotating buffs that may or may not be garbage
