Found this on Fandom after a user asked about the characters from Stellar Blade.

Saw this character guess it is related to Stellar Blade, that is Fandom suggested it was related:

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/nikke-goddess-of-victory-international/images/8/89/Indivilia_FB.png/revision/latest?cb=20230720142646

https://nikke-goddess-of-victory-international.fandom.com/wiki/Indivilia

Indivilia is a member of the Heretics, traitor Nikkes who sold out mankind and serve the Rapture Queen. She is one of the many known Heretics alongside Modernia, Nihilister, Liberalio, Anachiro and many more.
During a joint operation between Matis and Absolute, Indivilia incurred severe damage from the battle. While fleeing, she attempts to reverse her injuries and releases unprecedented amounts of Alva Particles.[1] However, she succumbed to her injuries and "died," leaving behind a fragment classified as "Material H" by the Ark. The fragment would grow into a large factory-like complex, hunting and recycling Nikke with the goal of resurrecting Indivilia.[2]

Hmm
Is this story very good?

Found another one:

https://nikke-goddess-of-victory-international.fandom.com/wiki/Cecil

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/nikke-goddess-of-victory-international/images/d/d8/Cecil_FB.png/revision/latest?cb=20230714000025


Cecil is one of the denizens of Eden, an advanced settlement located in the surface situated in a remote region. Like Shifty, Cecil serves as the operator of Eden, additionally she is also a researcher.
Cecil is responsible for the creation of many advanced technologies in Eden such as the optic camouflage of the settlement that conceals Eden from Raptures and the entire Inherit squad. She even built and designed Eden itself.


Since Nikke is name of game got curious who is Nikke?

https://nikke-goddess-of-victory-international.fandom.com/wiki/Nikke

A Nikke refers to the female soldiers manufactured in fighting the Raptures, they serve as the titular playable characters. After the invasion of Rapture, humanity had to seek shelter underground. There, they gathered forces, knowledge and resources to achieve one goal: retrieve the earth's surface from the enemy.
To do so, they divided themselves into several manufacturers and started working on manufacturing special fighting androids, commonly called Nikkes.
These Nikkes are sent on the surface of the planet and fight against Raptures using special weapons and abilities that makes them the only effective counter against Raptures.


Wait so there is no character name Nikke?

Considering every ad I see for it is purely "look at these anime tits and ass" I somehow doubt it's any good

it's an auto-play gacha thing like most of them, with a very heavy focus on sexualization of the characters over everything else. definitely wouldn't bother.

:( looks cool so I guess that is sad.

What kind of gameplay does it have I wonder?

Here is the featured Nikke

https://nikke-goddess-of-victory-international.fandom.com/wiki/Home

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/nikke-goddess-of-victory-international/images/2/22/Centi_FB.png

She seems pretty cool. Get a pilot vibe. Does she fly a plane or something?

An artisan with incredible strength who puts her heart into everything she does, never failing to get the job done at Mighty Tools. As Liter's first apprentice, she has great respect for her mentor. She always listens to what Liter says, and studies her techniques in earnest.

It's gacha. It's just incessant daily grinding in tedious repetitive gameplay to get an insignificant drip of resources for an incredibly small chance of getting a character you want, which are the only good things about the game. At least to look at. Getting characters doesn't do much to enhance the dull gameplay.

it depends on what you're looking to get out of it, right? like, I still play one mobile game - Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. in terms of mechanics, it's gacha + old school sprite based FF games w/ some more active mechanics mixed it, but it's largely something you can kinda play barely paying any attention for little bursts.

If you just want something to waste a bit of time at work / on lunch break, it'll do, I'm sure.

Story is mostly good, theres a few lower points like the current cheerleader event thats basically made to sell Asuna/Karin v3 even though we already got Asuna/Karin v2 like half a year ago. At least we get a free cheerleader dog NIKKE, though you need to also roll her.

Daily grind is generally like 30 mins at most.

The actual campaign is a bit resource-locked, as you take a hefty damage penalty if your chars are low-leveled. It was pretty bad for the first few months and the first few events following launch.

Theyve eased up on the requirements since then, but I dont exactly know how lenient it is now.

Each chapter is roughly 2-3 hours on auto and theres roughly 25 chapters now?

Events are typically a shorter affair, lasting an hour or so.

I dunno, depends on which people and how much you care about what they think. Just go look up a gameplay vid or something and you'll probably see what I mean pretty quick

I mean we're not really talking genre here. Gacha is a money making mechanic that plays on addictive personalities and triggers the same dopamine rush as gambling. It's objectively bad.

If the same game existed without gacha mechanics I'd have no beef with it

For the record, NIKKEs gacha system is comparable to Overwatch (1, not 2) where playing long enough will get you enough pity currency that you can redeem anyone down the line without paying. Most chars get added to the general pool after a month or so too.

For limited units, you only need to worry about collabs, summer, and Christmas. And Pilgrims, since they dont have a rateup but do get added to the general pool.

It has great music, voice acting and the story is decently depressing and ready to stab you in the heart.

There is a lot of sexualisation though and often a very 'haremy' feel to it. The gameplay is largely auto but you can play manually if you want.
I'd recommend just watching some YouTube videos to get an idea of what it's like.

Still a gacha in the end though.

You could just check Cosmographs YouTube channel, since they post all the tracks.
