as a general rule i use discord as a (infrequent) DM service and avoid communities as much as possible, but recently i've been thinking of sigh joining the official NGS community for the sole purpose of asking for base game support. a thing i've noticed in the last month is that Playstation players are hitting a gear progression wall around level 85--it's hard to acquire gear that's capable of UH level content. The Rising Weapon badge exchange and *15 collection folders help a bit, but getting craftable gear like Trailblazer or Klauz units (let alone augmenting them) is a struggle. And even smaller things like finding affordable crafted techs or skill rings on the player shops is hard now, with Cradle inflation existing and tech crafting just being....the absolute worst to learn on your own. RIP
i have no desire to interact with "the community" as it exists on Discord, though, and ime official discords are the worst offenders when it comes to passive-aggressively begging for people to engage in meaningless activity. i really just want to post a message saying "please add buster medals and mission badges to Cradle/Drawn to Darkness, and give some unit freebies to Playstation players" every few weeks until these things are done or i am banned for bot behavior. idc
