Gumi eventually shut down the European version (which ran on its OWN app) called Brave Frontier RPG, and made The Last Summoner, which eventually had animated graphics, though it was a bit overhated for that (GrandChase had drawn/animated sprites and so did Epic 7), and a bunch of other things that contributed to its terrible gameplay.

This is also why Bungie made Destiny 2: Beyond Light instead of just Destiny 3. You see, when you're making a sequel to a MMO/gacha game, you have to figure out how to transit your playerbase to the sequel, while the predecessor eventually dies out. The storyline drags on and on, and it was a good thing Gumi implemented a fast-forward option for the storyline.Īlim went on to make a sequel called Brave Frontier 2, which underperformed and received negative feedback from Japanese players at the announcement. Gameplay is basically following specific patterns on bosses (use this amount of BB per turn, guard, or use mitigation ult) and basically spamming BBs (skills) most of the time on the stages.Īlim, the developer of the Japanese version of Brave Frontier, stopped developing new content for the original, leaving Gumi to simply do work and pad the game out with nothing but side challenges and overpowered units. While it was one of big Japanese gacha games on the early generation (2013-2015), its slowly dying. The game is basically on life support now.
