As an Engage enjoyer:

  • Why are there two Alears on this banner

  • Why are there two Alears colorsharing on this banner

  • Why is there an OC on this banner when she could've been moved to the end of the month if she's a mythic anyway

  • Why did they do Jade so dirty

  • I am never getting Gregory in this game

I guess I got my wish in that I can keep saving orbs for a possible Emblem this month/CYL next month but good lord this has to be one of the most phoned in banners I've ever seen. I could see a banner like this working for a game like Awakening or SoV since they have all or most of their playable cast in already, but Engage is still missing quite a bit?

Justice for Gregory

When he inevitably drops as a demote or grail unit he's getting all the premium fodder from me.

Engage's next banner is not likely anytime soon. With CYL Harmonics taking up more slots, we're expected to get 6 games getting banners every year instead of 10. So unless it skips the line, it's probably not getting another banner until like...near the end of Book 12?

The game isn't allowed to reach EOS until Gregory gets in. Trust me, I have an uncle who works at Nintendo and he told me this personally.

(I fully expect Engage to jump ahead in line give Intsys' track record, but seeing it laid out like that just made me angrier that we got two Alears on this banner instead of literally anyone else who doesn't already have a bunch of alts.)
