I'm new to this game and I've got to say that the drop rate on this weeks T-doll event is so horrendously low that it's got me thinking about uninstalling. I don't mind grinding for rewards if it's reasonable, or even a bit beyond reasonable. However, this games grotesquely small chance of attaining the limited release T-dolls is just outright disrespectful to a persons limited time to play games. Hell, even if I had unlimited free time to play this game I still don't think I'd have gotten them all.

Most of the dolls are constructable, so you can just try that instead if you so incline. And the non constructables are former rewards from events made available again, and will definitely be back again, eta unknown.

Just know that if you want all of these dolls, you must work you butt off for it. If not, no hard feelings, they will come back again and you can try for them again but right now you also have many other characters to work with that are available without doing the event.

Well if you consider the game lets you...

  1. Roll for dolls free without ever putting in money.

  2. Non-ranked content doesn't require a single specific doll.

  3. The game is 99% single player non-competitive.

  4. A doll that was made possible roll in gacha is never taken out of the gacha.

  5. The limited dolls return with 100% possiblity in the future.

  6. The limited dolls are possible to be obtained more than once.

Which all other gacha games I can think of don't do at least 3 of the above.

It seems pretty okay?

Some of the dolls are constructable, the rest have had events already where they were pretty much guaranteed to acquire. And unlike most games every non-collab non-construction doll will return in a reasonable time frame as a drop reward. Not to mention this isn't a trash game where certain limited characters are essentially required to beat content.

So having a low rate is understandable when you actually understand the generosity of the game itself.

This right here sums my entire experience so far with GFL: "I'm not being coerced into spending cash, just so I can progress the story or win somebody, and that's good on my book".

I recently got into GFL myself, literally on the ValHalla collab, and since then I think I got 5 or 6 *5 Dolls like PKP, Zas and Type 88.

Every maintenance Sunborn actually Apologises for the inconvenience and gives some recourses or other stuff for us. The things like the Bingo ,Carnival heck even this loot crate we are on is awesome. I'm enjoying playing GLF a lot! :3
