忘却前夜

I was aiming for Salvador in the gacha, but I got two misses in a row… I cried even though the next one is guaranteed. This is my first time, is it really this unlucky?

I used to think that mobile games were losing their fun factor and becoming boring, but I got curious about what kind of game 'Eve of Oblivion' was and decided to try it, and it was actually fun! It has a unique world-building that's interesting, and it was a card game I hadn't really played before, so well... All in all, it's really enjoyable!! lol

I've compiled information about the event-exclusive rare artifact 'Erasmus's Guidance'! Rare Artifact: 『Erasmus's Guidance』 Hand size +1 At the start of your turn, if you don't have 'Navigator's Choice' in hand, draw 1. When the boss's HP decreases by 10%, gain 'Sailing' +1 (max 10). 'Sailing' enhances the effect of 'Cleaving the Waves'. When your HP decreases by 10%, gain 'Anchoring' +1 (max 10). 'Anchoring' enhances the effect of 'Shore Leave'. 『Navigator's Choice』 (Cost 0) Cleaving the Waves: Consume all 'Sailing'. For each point, all allies' final damage dealt +10%, gain 5 Madness. If 5+ points are consumed, deal 3 Weakness to all enemies + 35% of lost HP as fixed damage. Shore Leave: Consume all 'Anchoring'. For each point, Death Resistance +15%, gain 1 Action Point, draw 1 card. If 5+ points are consumed, gain 1 Temporary Barrier. Simply put, it's a card that allows you to use offensive effects when the boss's HP is low, and defensive/support effects when your own HP is low, all for 0 cost! So, if you deplete the boss's HP, you can go all out with 'Cleaving the Waves'. Conversely, when your HP is low and you're in a pinch, you can use 'Shore Leave' to increase your Death Resistance or gain a barrier to recover. That's the general idea!😆

As I was progressing through the event story, I noticed that Musette seemed to be treated like a 'borrowed character' (collaboration character). I found the small text 'MIST SEQUENCE' in the in-game story section, and upon investigating, it turned out she was indeed a collaboration character from the game 『MIST SEQUENCE』. 'Oh! I wonder what kind of game that is, I'd like to try playing it,' I thought, and looked into it further... To my surprise, it seems the game has already ended service🫨 I wondered why a collaboration with a game from another company that had ended service was realized, and investigated further. According to Mr. Light, the producer of 『Never After』 (忘却前夜), the development team of 『Never After』 also experienced a crisis of disbandment in the past. He stated, 'There are games in this world that, despite being wonderful works, are destined to leave the stage due to various real-world circumstances. Because I understand that sadness all too well, I wanted to create a place within our game where her story could permanently reside, so that she wouldn't be forgotten by people.' This seems to be the background story. ( ；∀；) What a heartwarming story.

I had about 170 Lumina Cores saved up, so I decided to try my luck with the "Lantern of the Dark Night" character select summon, hoping for Tais! Here are the results... 【Permanent Pool】 ・Lea ・Yuhasha ・Agrippa ・Nautila 【Pickup Pool】 ・Soleil x2 ・Salvador x2 ・Blood Chain・Helot It's great that I got mostly Mad Demons, except for Nautila, thanks to setting all my selective summons to Mad Demon, but I didn't get Tais, who I was really aiming for... 🥲

The new event "Under the Name of Fog" has started on the Eve of Oblivion! And I was surprised that the new character, Musette, was distributed from the start! I don't know how I'll be able to stack her up from now on, but I'll gratefully welcome her. From a quick glance, she seems to be a pure attacker type who strengthens her attacks and relentlessly assaults the opponent. 🤔 She's specialized in just hitting with attack cards and follow-ups, with almost no consideration for defense~ 😅 It's nice that she has area attacks and random attacks, but if I include her, I might not want to include other attackers. My main is the Mad Demon Realm and my sub is the Chaos Realm, so I'll think about how I can incorporate her into my current team composition!

The new event 'Terror Therapy' has started! Here are the special rules and the 'Memory' and 'Dream' artifact: 'Memory' and 'Dream' Artifact Hand limit +2, Draw count +2. 'Clarity of Memory' starts at 5 points. Using cards with seals will change 'Clarity of Memory'. If 'Clarity of Memory' is below 5 points, for every 1 point decrease, the final damage dealt by all awakened entities increases by 10%, and the final shield and life recovery effects decrease by 5%. If 'Clarity of Memory' is above 5 points, for every 1 point increase, the final shield and life recovery effects dealt by all awakened entities increase by 10%, and the final damage effects decrease by 5%. To put it simply, the special rule increases your hand limit and draw count by 2 each. Cards in your hand will glow green or blue, and using these glowing cards will increase or decrease the 'Clarity of Memory' score. (Initial value: 5 points) As the score decreases, your damage output increases while your recovery weakens. Conversely, as the score increases, your shield and recovery effects get a boost, but your damage output drops. Seems like you just need to defend enough and then focus on attacking. 🤔

The boss, 'Crimson Blade,' has a gimmick where its score decreases as its own HP drops, and when it reaches 0, a high-power attack + petrification effect is unleashed. It also inflicts bleeding. This time, we challenged it with a mixed formation of Mad Demon and Deep Sea, and borrowed Goliath from a friend. It's a super brute-force character that increases 'Strength' and further amplifies its bonus, and its firepower was simply incredible. Thais, our main attacker, also dealt over 9000 damage in a single turn, showing solid firepower and accounting for nearly 70% of the total damage. We were able to overwhelm it with high firepower before its HP decreased and dangerous actions like petrification were unlocked, so we defeated it easily in 7 turns, including after its revival.

The boss, 'Maid of the Thirteenth Night,' has a 'Full Stomach' ability that temporarily boosts her attack power the more you consume action points. She also has a wide range of moves, including reducing your max HP, adding 'Dark Cuisine' to your hand, inflicting sloth and poison, and even gaining shields and healing. This time, I focused on a playstyle that uses Carcia's Superdimensional Manipulation to retrieve cards and adjust my hand, while achieving research to increase the rotation of 'Madness Release.' Although the attacks themselves were quite varied, the boss's base stats were relatively low, so I didn't feel too threatened. I pushed through with Madness Release and defeated her in a relatively smooth 9 turns 😆

The boss's shadow, '24', has high attack power and inflicts poison and bleeding. As a helpful mechanic, there was a card called 'Help Me!' that could stun enemies. However, this time, I didn't use the stun card much and focused on achieving the research gimmick instead. By completing the research, it became easier to unleash 'Madness,' which significantly turned the tide in our favor. Also, Kasia, who was included in the formation, played a crucial role by retrieving cards sent to the 'Super Dimension' and shuffling my hand and deck. Thanks to the improved 'Madness' cycle from research and Kasia's effective support, I honestly defeated it quite easily. Addendum) I posted this on the wrong board, so I'm reposting! Thank you! 🙇
