What Steam players say

✦ AI summary

Granblue Fantasy is a time-gated gacha RPG with an engaging story that draws players in, but newcomers frequently report confusion due to poor tutorials and a convoluted UI that makes progression unclear even after hundreds of hours. The endgame revolves around repeating raids and requires specific character/summon combinations to compete, leading to severe power creep and a frustrating catch-up experience for late joiners. Players are divided on whether it's worth playing, with some praising the narrative while others suggest watching the anime instead and skipping the game entirely.

The sunk cost fallacy describes our tendency to follow through on an endeavor if we have already invested time, effort, or money into it, whether or not the current costs outweigh the benefits.

First: By playing normally the game is constantly giving you free characters (SSR, SR and R), you are even encouraged to use them all just to experience their mini stories and experiment with their kits, this game has so many characters and even then in the tier list those free characters (that you can get at any time you want clicking on the permanent events tab) are in the high ranks, there …

The huge roster, turn-based combat, and deep progression have plenty of potential, but the dated interface and enormous grind make it difficult to enjoy. There is a great fantasy adventure buried here - unfortunately, it is buried under twelve years of systems.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
