The State of Arknights: Endfield is SHOCKING... Or Is It?

Today, I’m reacting to Braxophone’s video discussing the current state of Arknights: Endfield and the argument that the game needs to seriously turn things around. While there’s plenty to discuss about Endfield’s current position, I push back on the idea that the solution is simply to change the direction of the gameplay or pile on more daily FOMO, chores, and time-gated content to keep players logging in. ⏰💀 Video from ‪@Braxophone‬ Braxophone Video    • The State of Arknights: Endfield is SHOCKI...   Does Endfield really need MORE reasons to feel obligated to play every single day? Or is there a better way to build a long-term game without turning it into an endless checklist of dailies, weeklies, limited-time events, and rewards you feel punished for missing? 🤔 In this reaction, we dig into what Endfield is actually trying to be, where its current design succeeds and falls short, and whether chasing the conventions of other live-service and gacha games would genuinely make the experience better. 🔥 Is Endfield in trouble? ⚙️ Does the gameplay direction actually need to change? ⏰ Would more FOMO really fix player retention? 🎮 Or does Endfield need to double down on what makes it different? Let’s talk about it. Come hang out Discord   / discord
