I feel like it's not just gimmicks. There's also power creep. :<

I went from having problems with killing the boss in 2016, to having more quality of life. Then at my last event, I couldn't kill the mid-boss properly with the heaviest ships in the game. Despite having the best levels, equipment and ships over every other event that I ever participated in. My FBBs started to only do 1-digit damage when damaged, something which I found very astonishing... (but yes, I know it makes sense).

The game also allowed Akizuki and Akashi to drop for me, only at my last event. So they couldn't ever help make the game more playable, until the very end of everything.

I'm also waiting to see if phase II will also offer any improvements in UI; will there ever be indicators for hidden stats, like LoS? I don't know what is their stand on reverse-engineering and data mining, which can be perhaps seen as illegal activities. If they were actually always illegal to the develpers, then what is their official solution for working around the hidden stats like LoS? Just trial-and-error? Do the Japanese players really do that?

Before my last event, my viewer has been discontinued. Ooi has been discontinued too. So the game is also getting less and less convenient to play. It's for this reason that I hope that the game itself would become more playable, although they probably do not have any reason to improve (since their Japanese fanbase is satisfied).
