I do like corrupting heart because she's actually a different outcome for skadi, and I like the welfare alts for the 3*s because it's nice to have better versions of them, there are a lot of 3*s who are interesting characters. summer ch'en really disappointed me. I love ch'en and don't like seeing her turned into a blatant cashgrab. If you're going to make an alt that's just "here's her in a different outfit" at least make it something you can unlock and not a gacha thing
I have a lot of thoughts about arknights being a gacha game despite the story's themes actually. Like obviously it's a compromise to get the story to a wider audience, but as a creator I personally would not compromise my values THAT much lol
