· Monster Master Star Dive is a game that shows efforts to diligently research and reflect what users want. · The development team has no intention of engaging in unnecessary power struggles with users, which is even more evident in the BM (Business Model) composition.

· Monster Master Star Dive adopts an open-world BM, and offers monthly subscriptions and pass products. · Compared to other games, the price for 10 consecutive draws during the first purchase and regular purchases is slightly lower.

First Purchase Draw (10 pulls)	Approx. 14,691 KRW

· Unlike typical games with a 1.8% chance of obtaining a 5-star and a 1-1.2% pickup rate, Monster Master Star Dive sets the pickup rate at 1.8%. · The price for 10 consecutive draws during the first purchase is 14,646 KRW, and even calculated as a regular draw, it's around 16,000 KRW for 1600 units, which is cheaper than other games. · It offers first-purchase benefits twice and increases the pickup rate, reducing the burden of acquiring characters.

· Based on the first purchase, the expected value for acquiring a character is about 80,000 KRW (55 pulls), and for acquiring a weapon, it's about 50 pulls. · When purchasing with regular draws, the expected value is about 120,000 KRW, which is lower compared to other open-world BM games. · The 'Thread of Fate' lowers the difficulty of acquiring characters from the 'Honor Battlefield,' adding to the fun of collecting resources.

· There are two types of monthly subscription-like products: Special Subscription and Membership. · Membership is similar to a typical monthly subscription, providing a total of 3,360 resources over 28 days, which is a large amount compared to other games. · Special Subscription is 'Monflix Premium,' offering benefits like automatic capture and exceeding capacity acquisition, and provides 30 resources per day.

· Subscribing to Monflix Premium unlocks the 'Subscription Shop,' which immediately grants 30 Oath Tokens. · These tokens can be used to purchase pickup gacha tickets and pickup weapon gacha tickets, providing benefits equivalent to a total of 15 pulls. · Combining the monthly subscription product and the subscription pass, you can get about 46 pulls for 15,900 KRW, making it a cost-effective option. · The pass products are composed of free, 12,000 KRW, and 14,000 KRW tiers. Purchasing the premium pass allows you to obtain all rewards for a total of 26,000 KRW.

· With a monthly expenditure of around 41,900 KRW, you can enjoy significant benefits, and the gacha prices are low, reducing the burden. · The development team has clearly put in a lot of effort to exclude elements that users might find unpleasant. · The BM composition, which aims to realize a subscription economy by increasing pickup rates, is noteworthy.

· The gameplay itself was decent based on the first day's experience, and the initial visual concerns were resolved after playing the game. · The story is not problematic, but the humor tends to be a bit childish. · Efforts to actively reflect the opinions of subculture game users can be seen in the dialogue, etc.

· The development team shows a willingness to listen to user feedback and operate the game long-term. · The reasonable BM and the attitude of communicating without power struggles with users give a positive first impression. · Unlike Netmarble's previous image, the operational approach of aiming for longevity rather than pursuing excessive profits early on is anticipated.
