The best parts of the game and the anime is the XB games so why didn’t you focus on that.

Even the game I knew that had the worst translation and QA for its interface still hired proper translators to translate its dialogues from Chinese.
If a gacha flops, it’s very rarely because of the story, but more likely due to mechanics or character appeal. Tribe Nine as a franchise is relatively popular so it’s more likely to be the mechanics.

They gave you basic characters, locked all the good ones behind a gacha game and locked half of the credits to play such gacha game behind a battle pass. The writing itself was immaculate, and the character we could play had AMAZING moves and were well thought out, it’s just that 1 aspect of the game decidedly ruined the experience for everyone which caused a shutdown.

If its that bad who cares about the rest of the presumably bad writing?
