What are your Thoughts on Arkngihts Endfield?

[@cemanz]

It's good, but I have to agree that the lore is so detached from of Arknights. But then somehow the og characters show up again(Angelina,Aurora,and Surtr). Also it implied that they are clone, have the previous memory and the skill, BUT they had different personality and identity. It just so ambiguous overall for the lore.

[@_unknown123.]

That's nice... looks like FF on PS2... brings back nostalgia

[@ExiMaster]

yeah this video is kind of way too late

[@UrielJudge]

THE BETA GAMEPLAY TRAILER MAKES ME SO MUCH MORE HYPED !! But I agree with Ariara that the potential for a weapon banner makes my palms sweaty 😰

[@Gmouse]

Good thing about this video being "outdated" is that now you can make a second video to get their opinion now, right between the new trailers and start of beta and a third after said beta to see the evolution.

[@Namipew]

I can't wait for Endfield! Thanks for inviting us to be a part of this Cesith!

Endfield fan of 30 years here, I am very excited

[@Riverfall_]

It's certainly an outdated video at this point. But it's also interesting to see pre-recent reveals opinions. Things certainly changed since and the hype exploded. As for me personally. I also was rather skeptical and I was only going to play for the lore... but then the demo reach the Shu-like event zone and man... It's going to be really cool to run around in 3D Arknights-like world. Then there was the space base. It's not Rhodes Island but it's the closest thing I will get to running around 3D Rhodes Island. But anyway. If before I was n't really feeling it and I was only planning to play for Lore reasons... then now I'm considering making and managing two different accounts so I can play as both Male and Fem Endmins. It's kind of weird that Endmins have the best design in the game when they are the first operators we get.

[@AriaraShii]

Thaank you again for your hard efforts on editing this! I am surprised by how many "negative" opinions there are, I thought people are pretty much hyped for it. It is cool to see, how other people feel about endfield. Personally from the beta testing video, I am even more excited than before. Once again, thank you for letting me be part of this questionaire and hopefully endfield will end up being great for all of us!

[@velvetra29]

Why do Ebi sounds extra British here? Lmao.

[@YandereENjoyer4469]

Well I would be waiting for post beta test reaction.

[@stef2337]

Let's just hope they will be able make really good gameplay for it

[@xenthosmamentos1496]

I'll be waiting for after beta test thought content

[@lingerlights]

It looks fun

[@lloleolom]

Personally, I have extremely cautious expectations. The main thing for me is that the production of Endfield as little as possible influenced the Arknights itself - let me explain: I do not want to see in the original game “stretching” the story for Endfield (one IS4 is enough) and retcons in favor of the new lore that they come up with in the new game.

[@loosewire.]

Yeah base building game is not for everyone. But I think Enfield is for everyone who loves Arknights. Good luck for those who applied for the Beta test. Can't wait to see more gameplay.

[@Sacrypheyes]

i will probably give it a try but as i'm not the biggest fan of factorio nor ARPG, so i don't expect too much of it but who knows, they could build the hype with good characters and interesting game mechanics.

[@beefystu559]

Still waiting to see what they are cooking with the battle and story. These two aspects are the most important components Imo as the factory stuffs will be hugely subjective. So since factory stuffs is not reliable component to grab people and might even be detrimental to some people, at least the battle and story need to do some lifting to compensate.

[@janematthews9087]

Hearing some people talk about what they saw in the newest trailer, you'd think HG ripped out the old battle system and started again from scratch. Which doesn't actually fill me with confidence since that means,to me, that their initial focus wasn't the combat at all. They added features to the base mechanic, they added details to the overworked, but the battle mechanics? Complete overhaul. I don't trust it, they aren't confident with it at all. Which might lead to the Devs listening to the community in terms of battle improvements. And you know how gamers are: They love to optimize the fun out of playing. Great problem finders, horrible problem solvers.

[@Dr.Krezotexe]

14:17 press to skip the dogwater

[@hanbell3680]

whats the lore?

[@mr.clevertrick8710]

Lmao

[@Fizzyon71]

Overall, the game has seen a lot of improvements, but not a big fan about the change for some characters. Anyways, THE FACTORY MUST GROW

[@baconisgod13]

I've got mixed feelings. I love arknights, i think the designs are cool and the gameplay looks fine but it hasnt grabbed me yet. But truth be told my own issue is that i dislike the idea of the game being a direct sequel too arknights cause I dislike the idea that arknights now has a direct place its story has to go and i feel that can be limiting if not handled correctly. I would rather it be similar to final fantasy, like it has alot of stuff you'd recognize from arknights and it has the arknights name. But it is it's own unconnected thing.

[@joardian9508]

i need to hear frostbyte262 opinion too 😃

[@TheZapMan]

I didnt see bossu sadge 😢

[@SirGacha]

7:25 WUT

[@coldkaze62]

The game looks interesting , but i hope they simplify the base building dont wanna throw so much time in it , as for combat it's alright to see them no including dodge button like other 3rd gacha cuz it kinda got repetitive, and hopefully the gacha for weapons has it own currency or low pity like pgr 30 or something, last but not least i hope we dont see tectone in this community 😅.

[@HeLpMeThInKmYnAmE]

It has dodge button now you can dodge 4 times (stamina guage) but Iit "looks like" there is no perfect dodge or even no i-frame so the dodge is probably just a way to move a bit faster when in a fight to get out of enemy's attack. for factory building stuff it's gonna be simple at first and more complicate as it goes on. I hope they will do like OG AK which has so many experimental gamemode that some of them doesnt feel like a tower-defense game.

[@coldkaze62]

@HeLpMeThInKmYnAmE oh cool that's now a balanced kind of dodge tbh I disliked the slow time when dodging in other games

[@SaphTheDarkAngel]

I'm not super hyped for Endfield yet. I'm gonna be there for lore and the base/factory building. However, if the rest of the game is enjoyable, I might end up putting a lot of time into it, like Arknights. But that's just a wait and see thing.

[@SoulWhiteAngel]

Im hyped for endfield and i wonder what they would say now that the new gameplay is out

[@fajartirta4934]

I really hope the dev listen to player like WuWa did and not like ZZZ. Im fine if they release it in 2026

[@Bilagtas]

THE FACTORY MUST GROW- I mean I like the game's graphics! it gives that FF vibes but I don't think I would be able to stick that long on this game like genshin and wuwa... Because open world gacha games can be quite grindy especially when they have rng based character equipment stats unlike Arknights, I could leave it on auto while I'm working lol.

[@YandereENjoyer4469]

That's the thing Endfield is opposite of what you are expecting. Artifacts and equipment have static stats and are craftable at base so you don't have to grind at all it makes it easy to keep up with the game on a daily basis. Now you don't even have you kill mobs yourself just set up tower defense at their spawn point and they will automatically farm for you.

[@dayronsanchezarias2157]

Just gonna drop this. How is it different? Seems the more they change stuff to accomodate inputs, the more they get closer to your Genshin/Wuwa formula. That plus new characters...why building tons of memorable characters in AK just to dump them.

[@Eddison33]

I'm not excited about anything these days. As for Endfield, I like the complex base-building, while combat itself is fine but unimpressive. I'm not really satisfied with the characters featured there, but it can change in the future. I'll play it if quests, story, lore are worth it

[@kiarime]

Ebiiii

[@Vadikus2424]

Why'd you even make this before the beta test?

[@Agito5V]

unfortunate timing probably

[@Cesith]

This was recorded in September. Didn't expect a Beta to release in a month. But I really wanted to show the opinions of the creators before the beta is out to be able to compare their opinions and how the beta might change it.

[@SUPAH_SUPAH_SUPAH]

Since this video does not address it: The new names are horrendous. "Snowshine" makes no sense. "Gilberta", while and actual real italian name, has become widely out of use. Nobody is named Gilberta in italy anymore. Or anywhere in the world, really. So it really just feels like they are trying to be quirky for the sake of it. "Leavatain" is the better of the bunch, since Surtr actually did undergo a substantial character arc since the AK times, but going from being named after the Feranmut, to being named after the sword of the Feranmut, is kinda weird. I also dislike the art direction. This is not things like UI and the HUD, those are amazing, I mean the actual characters. hate they chose a singular artist for the entire game. Everything looks grey and washed out. While there are definitely some splashes of color here and there, like with Yvonne or Xaihi, but everything else blends together in this homogeneous grey blob. This isn't to say the designs themselves don't work. In the 3D models, every character looks amazing. The animation team also did a great job in expressing everyone's personality through movement alone. However, in the splash arts, the combination of choosing ONE artist and predominantly using grey as the main color for damn near everybody just makes everything way too homogeneous for my tastes.

[@xivilius.]

SUPAH speedrunning to be the most hated Endfield youtuber

[@Vadikus2424]

I actually agree with all the takes here. The new names sounds so fuckin bad and AK pretty much lost it's uniqueness of having many different artists in one game

[@theanimeguy6985]

Ye, I just want my man skade and other artist of arknights to be here just for variety

[@metalforge6915]

bro same, namie must have a character here

[@jillstingray8828]

I love people that have no idea what they are talking about. There still are multiple artists, as Surtr isn't even Liduke's (AK E art director) OG character. They are probably still comissioning different artists for different characters, and Liduke and the team behind Endfield modify them to fit in the game. You can't tell me Chen, Surtr, Angelina and Aurora look drawn by the same artist (in Endfield). Talking about the 2d art to be precise (it's up on the AK E Website) Also names are fine, if Snowshine was the original name in AK, and Aurora in AK E, people would have the same reaction.

[@ИванКрузинштерн-и4о]

Looks boring.
