Don't bother posting conspiracy nonsense about the gacha rates. The rates are the rates and any time they mess up the rates somehow like I remember years back a Dantes rateup being .4% instead of .8% they refunded all the quartz and tickets spent on the banner so they didn't get sued. While letting everyone keep all the stuff they rolled on the banner. I was just a little sad as I noticed the rate irregularity in game and I didn't spend quartz or tickets, but w/e it's water under the bridge.

Then like KohaceMB said, 100 rolls doesn't mean you're going to get an SSR. I spent way more than that when I was a new player before I pulled an SSR and even that SSR was a Francis Drake spook. Followed by a Schez spook. Then Gilgamesh being the first rateup SSR I got, which was then followed by another Drake spook of all things amusingly.

If they had an AI running the gacha to incentivize as much spending as possible it's done a really bad job with me because I've gotten every target I've ever rolled for and have never spent a penny. You just got bad luck, and should probably stop buying quartz. I don't know the exact wording of the laws but it's safe to say publishing false drop rates that aren't totally random would be a major crime. Also, the total number of drops would almost never be equal to the percentages anyway because that's just how probability works.

It's just a risk of gacha games, sometimes you got lucky and vice versa. Even you got your dissatisfaction after spending that much, at least you can pull the break for not to keep forcing it.

That's a wild conspiracy theory, and I do agree with taking some time off. The game is ultimately played for fun, and you don't seem to be having any right now.

Maybe a break will rejuvenate your interest in the game.

Na, I am not a returning player and I am pretty lucky. Way better than the drop rates.

I know people who has way better luck as well.

I can say for sure that the gacha is something the devs barely touched. It is still the same since the beginning of the game.

If they implement an AI for the gacha than we would get it 2 years later :p

Why do people feel the need to do a whole post to advertise that they stop playing?

Just do it, we don't need to know

There's no AI in FGO, it used same system to many other gacha games out there.

Hoyo Games popularized term of soft pity and hard pity, I believe.

Actually that's not something entirely new or innovative, otherwise, there will be FGO veteran account with only 1 SSR because the rate system is completely honest. They need to 'give' SSR via rolls at some calculated point to keep people playing.

FGO simply didn't announce what factors affected it, resulting on rituals like roll after Super Success, etc. Back then, JP have players that keep track of their rolls to make more accurate guess, thus theory about paid SQ affect the 'invisible pity' better than free SQ around Camelot-Babylonia era.

Of course, whether you get what you wanted or not is down to chance. The manipulation only go as far as that, no AI behind the scene.

You guys convinced me. It's not manipulation, it's just bad luck. I'll stop blowing money and go back to the FTP roots. Thanks!
