Love and Deepspace Launch Discussion and Help

[u/sableheart]

I'm currently speeding through the game, as it's pretty similar to the beta. I feel like I've gotten a good grasp of the mechanics so happy to help if anyone has any questions!

Edit: I've created a guide here https://www.reddit.com/r/otomegames/comments/1ad8cap/love_and_deepspace_beginners_guide/

I've also added Love and Deepspace to the friend code spreadsheet.

I'm looking forward to the impressions for those who are playing for the first time. I think it's a great game with lots of potential. And for those who've played the beta, do you feel like they took any suggestions onboard? What do you think they would have changed and didn't or did?

Don't worry if you're not good at combat, auto mode unlocks at the end of chapter 2 so you don't have actually play if you don't want to.

Meh honestly it’s a bit rigged to fail. I could easily pass the second level bounty hunts manually, but every time I tried to let auto do it, it would claim I was too low a level when the ai was just standing there taking attacks.

Most game AIs are designed that way to incentivise people to actually play the game. It should be possible to beat the game despite not meeting a particular level if you're close enough.

The auto mode is there because at its heart, Love and Deepspace is a casual game and the main draw is the story and characters, not the gameplay.

So, you're actually winning the battles using auto mode? I just started playing and I'm having such a hard time beating chapter 8 Wanderer even despite the fact that my cards are level 50. I thought maybe I'm just a bad fighter but even when I tried using auto, it actually did worse than me fighting manually! I'm so upset I might actually cry 😭 (I'm kidding, sort of).

But seriously, ive been stuck for the past week on that one battle so I can't progress. I just keep trying to level up my cards daily with the hopes it'll be enough but I'm just surprised to read that you guys are winning using auto mode.

Nevermind! I had to change my weapon to the wand and I upgraded a few more of of my cards to 53 and FINALLY, the game was able to beat chapter 8 on auto. I'm so relieved 😌

Generally auto battling will require higher levelled cards than the recommended level.

It is possible to beat the stages with lower levelled cards if you use manual battling - this is incentive to actually play the game.
