Could it possibly be because KC has even worse gameplay and mechanics and AL has objectively better designs for almost every single character and the fact that KC's designs are 90% bleak brown hair brown eyes designs?

where do fgo and granblue fit in this? what's the best and most popular gacha?

> Azur Lane autist has infested Yea Forums
Go back

I think FGO is the most popular gacha simply because it is Sony's number 1 moneymaker, even shitting on their AAA exclusives. It grosses a gorillion $, something other gachas don't do.

Pretty sure either FGO or some idolshit makes the most.

KC had it all, and they did absolutely nothing with it

FGO is the real top dog when it comes to popularity despite being arguably not the best gachashit out there

It still blows my mind that they haven't done jack shit with KC since it came out. No new game modes, no collab events, no playable abyssals, nothing.
Don't use the browser game excuse, Granblue is also a browser game and it has done all of those things in spades. Even the last one, all the original primal bosses are slowly added as playable characters.

they did something with it.
they made a movie that pissed everyone off.

Seriously, they just had to do literally FUCKING ANYTHING, but they just sat with their shitty-boring boat tactics game, and I guess made a slightly shinier arcade version with the same shit gameplay.

Didn't they make an anime and a shitload of merch?

the anime was super bad (even by franchise-milking slice of life standards) and merchandise is mostly only available in japan and targeted to ultra-otakus.

they should have pushed out a decent quality console game (at least as good as the arcade game), ported the browser game to mobile with improved gameplay and graphics, and made an actually good anime.

Nice subjectivity but KC has now more washed up design since the inhouse artists are being held thanks to nepotism or personal favours.

This. Have you seen how shitty their american designs were? Shit was basically potato face crap.

GONNA

this was definitely true a year ago but is nowhere close to true now. AL has definitely caught up and in many ways surpassed KC design over the last few months, which isn't hard since KC design is stagnant as fuck and still full of potatoes

>gameplay section
I think comparing those two is slightly dishonest in a sense that those two never meant to be same in that regard. It's kinda like comparing WoW and Warcraft III, because both are same universe, and giving one merit for being better RPG (while other is rts with just some rpg elements slapped on top). But it's grey area I guess.
What's not grey is that "engaging side-scrolling" is really not all that engaging or anywhere near what shmups can offer. There /are/ some stages where you actually have to evade shit, but those have drastically different patterns, and are optional and made for people with high-end fleets. Regular gameplay is still very much about stats, and manual control only gives you so much before it's time to get grinding levels or making better equips.
>storyline
I play AL, I know it's story. It's fucking all over the place. Sure, there are scenes and dialogues, but calling it anywhere near complete is, again, dishonest. I invite anyone else playing the game to go figure sequence of events and how they are actually related to "main story" that cuts off not even half-way through campaign.

In general, I think situation is more about Kancolle's failings than AL's achievements, although more upbeat and friendly tone of latter game sure helps it get popularity.

you fuckin kidding me? AL is miles better now is the design department than KC its not even funny.

>Good luck using anything thats outside of the meta.
In what possible sense is this true except MAYBE with respect to the absolute latest worlds? Equipment means far more than ship stats and the game is so easy you can just brute force it with Lv10 gold gear on really any max level/LB'd ship.

AL whole year revenue is not even 1/10 of what FGO make in 1 month, and FGO is mainstream as fuck even the normal fag knew about it. AL is only popular with the horny creep otaku and weeaboo.

KanColle is a browser game and not even gacha.

Azur Lane is a gacha that play like a very simple shump.

But yeah both games are about boat girls. As for which are better. That falls on your personal tastes I guess.

Why would you ever use Enterprise over any other carrier? Same goes with any other top tier boat of the same class. Sure, you dont have to use Laffey over, say, Isokaze, but why would you? You're only gimping yourself.
This is one thing thats nice about KanColle. It forces you to use all your ships and the game mechanics make them all viable.

total ignorance (and probably shameless bait): the post

Good, KC was ALWAYS shit.

AL has objectively more varied and unique designs and themes for its characters then KC does. Also gets 100+ bonus points for not having Shibafu's potato face trash in it.

no it doesn't you goddamn retard

I have played since 2014 and I have never fucking lost a single shipgirl not even once. It's possible, but not by chance. You have to be aware of it, and an idiot to lose one

FGO is literally the only thing outside of mainstream games that is keeping Sony's entertainment division afloat.

Ouch.

And KanColle isn't?

Have you even played these games? Kancolle has tons of trash just like AL does. And Enterprise is literally top tier on both of the two most widely used/credible tier lists (CN Wiki and Usagi-sensei).

>Could it possibly be because KC has even worse gameplay and mechanics
no not really, it entirely depends on the players if they liked it or not.
>the fact that KC's designs are 90% bleak brown hair brown eyes designs?
>they still have Shibafu
50/50 yeah.
but the real reason why KC flops over AL is that KC was never localized which excludes Foreign customers.
I mean seriouslym from the perspective of normal individual. would you play a game on Japanese when there's one with the same genre out there is playable on English language?

Fags like you were the ones who also claimed AL would never be popular in Japan and they are like tied with the US/EN server popularity wise.

I mean yes Enty is still Op as fuck and top tier but this will never stop me from laughing.

Do you? I literally answered your fucking question exactly. Let me break it down for you, I guess:
>Why would you ever use Enterprise over any other carrier?
Enterprise is fucking T0 (top tier). Confirmed for not having played the game.

>This is one thing thats nice about KanColle. It forces you to use all your ships and the game mechanics make them all viable.
Shit tier AL ships are basically as viable as shittier KC ships in their respective games, perhaps even more so given how piss-easy AL is with maxed gear and max-level (regardless of the ship in question). Again, confirmed for legitimately not having played these games. KC has a ton of trash ships.

I mean, I don't doubt that a DBZ gatcha game would make more money than god on account of Latin America being what it is, but at the same time I haven't heard of it before. I guess everything really is getting a gatcha game nowadays.

This, its not even about clearing the events in mao lane its about autistically making an op fleet as oil efficient to get more broken gear to make the game even easier than it is, while KC is all about clearing which is like a puzzle. How the hell is the former considered a better game?

yeah, even the decent series of Kotetsujo Kabaneri continue their story/series on a mobile gacha game instead.

Ah, my mistake. I meant why would you use any other carrier over Enterprise. You would have realized my mistake if you read the rest of my comparison with Laffy vs Isokaze, so yeah I still think you have reading problems.
And no. Shit tier AL ships are forever doomed to be shit tier unless they get a good retrofit. KC mechanics allow any ship to be good, unless you're trying to make something like battle Kashima/Akashi a thing, which is not what they were intended for even in real life. Stop asking like you have played KC.

That didn't address his argument retard. Might as well have posted "It works on my computer :^)" too while you're at it.

Its called auto lane for a reason, after the first month of grinding the game becomes auto pilot and clearing shops for the sake of it. All brainless "gameplay".

Because it's a waifu game and people want their botefu to shine even with shit stats and relevancy? Instead of being forced to use some potatos because the game demand it for whatever arbitary reason.

Eh

Except it's entirely possible you also thought Laffey is inferior to Isokaze for whatever fucking reason. Your earlier statement that AL is somehow meta or die (when the real complaint you should be making is its opposite - that AL is too fucking easy and built for auto-play despite pretending it's a hands-on shmup) already proved your lack of familiarity with the game so all bets were/are off. Admit it, you're an ESL underage. It's fine. Owning up to your shortcomings will make you stronger.

FWIW I've played both games pretty extensively (and played the shit out of KC Arcade back when I lived in Japan) and you are objectively fucking wrong in your assessments regarding difficulty/tiering.

Permadeath and lottery system really turned me off KC. Even though it's chinaman shit it's endearing how hard they are trying.

AL has MUCH better designs on average. KC rides it's 10 or 15 good designs while every other shipgirl looks like an ugly potato. AL has a whole cast of appealing girls, even the less popular ones are still appealing.

[insults of disagreement here]

Its supposed to give a sense of danger rather than just saying "fuck it" and head smashing your way through. AL is consequenceless and this is reflected in that you dont even have to make repairs even if you fuck up. Actual navies dont operate this way and KC is attempting to emulate that in some way.

They are just insecure as fuck since their aggressive multimedia marketing isn't exactly working.

How exactly? KC doesnt have a hard tier list like AL does. There are ships that are literally straight up better than others and you are fucking retarded if you dont use them in AL.

If anything, it's a poor implementation of that because there's rarely any actual reward to proceeding while with heavy damage. It's there to cockblock progress and make the game more tedious rather than being designed around actually allowing high risk high reward approaches.

Or maybe just maybe don't make it so sinking is permadeath?

I mean aren't the abyssals just sunk shipgirls? Why not have sunk girls go to a "deabyssalization" facility which functions like a repair but much longer?

It does, some ships are literally worse than others or have advantages in stats that don't matter at all that much.

You haven't played that game too much right? You can clear plenty of shit without her, if anything this allows players looking for a challenge to use lesser ships since the game is not pure rng and allows skilled players to win with lesser ships.
>The power difference between Graf Zeppelin/Taihou compared to the other carrier in KC is so minimal, even though they can do something the others can not, that you dont feel like you're purposely gimping yourself by not using them.

>It isn't super minimal specially with ships that appear to be forgotten by the devs.
Atago and Takao and notoriously forgotten about and as pointed out, the power difference between them and Nachi is basically null.
Trying to argue over the internet is fucking retarded, especially with an ALfag, so I'm done with this shit. You cant even give a real argument, just "not really" and "no youre wrong because i said so". Try autoclearing high levels with nothing but commons.

I mention carriers because Taihou and Graf actually have abilities that would seem to set themselves apart for the others, but they arent really any much stronger. I could have used Nelson, or something, but even Nelson or the other special attack ships dont vastly over shadow the others. This separates from the design philosophy of AL where abilities are everything and if a ship cant compete, you might as well not use her.

I use Enterprise as an example because I wanted to use Illustrious in my fleet but Enterprise so vastly overshadows her in terms of fleet cover and overall power that there was no point and my interest in the game waned.

I'm sure it is.

Yes the anime was good instead of a trainwreck. Might give the game a try.

>so butthurt you have to falseflag on Yea Forums constantly in retaliation
just as bad as the chinks i guess, huh?

Funny part is that it looks better than the live2d in Kancolle kai.

KC gets some really strange collaborations, like that ice ring musical thing, and it sells out in just a few hours.
AL doesn't come close to being that popular in JP, and frankly it never will, because it's just another gacha game in the sea of hundreds.

Why is Azure Lane a punching bag in the gacha community? Was it the early cockiness that didn't live up to expectations?

Jap fans (the ones that matter) are chill with us.

ah yes i've heard the same thing about granblue 5 years ago, those literal whos that made RoB, right Yea Forums, you're always right.

80% of the KC fanart posted here is Abyssal fan art because that's the only thing that they can produce up to standard.

Chinks killed KC but it's not AL, it all started going down hill after Zeco was hired.

that art is pretty good for being its own thing, lolis with thick legs are top tier.

I can see why. Abyssals are very different from potatoes.

No, just dedicated shitposters from /ddlc/ and /gfg/ wanting it to fail.

Pretty much
They took opportunity of the rapidly growing popularity and started acting smug about it
Turns out it was, obviously, just a fad and lost its place real fast
Also chinks

KC fanart is okay, I just think abyssal have a superior aesthetic. Shipgirls aren't bad but it's like looking at any other cute anime girl franchise under the sun so it's not that interesting.

It's out in like 2 weeks, on 3rd Oct. Looks better than expected, minimal CG, decent action and no potato for MC. It should be able to cross over the very low bar of the 1st KC anime.

C2, the devs, has full control. That's why stupid shit like KC On Ice and JazzColle and The Cult of Zuiun even happened.

True, it's not that hard to accomplish but still fun since you'd expect them to do something even worse.

Not surprising. KC was the first but they shit the bed and didn't push for improvements. Of course someone was bound to come along and eat their lunch. Japan in general is just not moving or doing shit in terms of culture exporting and everyone else in East Asia is doing this to them. SK and CN seemed to recognize from the getgo that even if you don't care to appeal directly to a global market just keeping things open to it is enough to move up.

Pretty much encapsulates the reason why I don't like KC teebeeaych.

>interested in one of the most interesting recent historical events due to a kusoge and not all the great works based on it that exist
That's sad.

Tanaka does what Tanaka. One of the reasons Intrepid in particular was added instead of any other Essex-class was because Tanaka likes to visit her in NYC.
The other reason being that he likely thought she would be a fitting reward for a Leyte themed event that also added Musashi Kai 2, since planes from Intrepid were the first to land hits on Musashi.

Her stats in game are great and her design is fine, just inferior to Saratoga's design.
