#

im not the happiest that genshin is scaling that far

#

it also means that dain may just

#

never get his comeuppance on them

#

especially cus surtalogi isnt even in teyvat

#

so idk what the fuck dain will do

#

and spoilers for 5.6

#

||we now know rhinedottir has merged with the shade of life. so she may be extra unkillable||

#

also in the weapon skin lore

#

we now know the sinners are the basis for each artifact piece

#

so their scaling just giga outpaces teyvat

#

alice probably does too but we kinda already knew that

#

whole hexenzirkel might

#

which, okay it has been almost 6 years. so like

glossy latch
#

Idk that just

runic ether
#

maybe it is time

glossy latch
#

Feels out of place in Genshin?

runic ether
#

but its still just weird

#

yeah

#

verse got too powerful too quick is what it feels like

mortal iron
#

skirk come home please

#

😭

#

i brought french coffee

long tree
#

I generally tend to not put too much stock into statements that haven't explicitly been backed up doubly so if you can find alternative meanings and it pushes the bar for whats normal for the verse insanely high

runic ether
#

they literally say hes him

long tree
#

Like crushing galaxies either means hes doing broly shit or hes like going planet to planet and just fucking shit up

#

If hes doing broly shit though for reals then idk how genshin is gonna keep up with that scale

runic ether
#

one civilization brought their entire star system together to fight him and he beat them easily

#

another civilization manifested a god united by their belief

#

he ate them all the same

long tree
#

Okay destroying a galaxies army and destroying the actual galaxy are very different things, but that second one is insane

runic ether
#

and he has yet to find an opponent that he finds challenging

long tree
#

Bro beat up god tf

runic ether
#

he hasnt gone all out yet

runic ether
long tree
#

Hes just himothy ig

runic ether
#

hes still out there looking for a challenge to his full power

long tree
#

Traveler witnessing this man when they lost to someone who's best feat is carving a country side canyon into their own country

runic ether
#

the reason he took skirk in is bc she has the potential to surpass him in the future

#

and the reason skirk took in childe is bc she sees in him the same potential that surtalogi has

long tree
#

Is she hoping the more times she throws him into big threats the more real that'll be

#

If so based

runic ether
#

she's taught him like how surtalogi taught her

#

which yeah basically is trial by fire

#

though not without reason

#

childe is equally battle hungry and inately talented

#

fwiw too arlecchino may have the same potential as childe since they have a lot of parallels including some lore parallels

#

and its looking like a lot of this is seeming like a set up of the "new 5 sinners" more or less

long tree
#

Another 3 years of traveler getting ragdolled to push the new 5 star

#

Actually tbf that didn't happen much in natlan iirc

slow raft
mortal iron
#

Escoffier propaganda

runic ether
#

im undefeated when it comes to gambling

long tree
#

I'm caught up on genshin rn as far as main quests go

#

||wow I really don't like the other travelers motives at all||

slow raft
#

and you even got two good units!

long tree
#

||you want a salty run back on a decision you made so badly you'd actively disregard the well being of every other person on the planet?||

runic ether
slow raft
#

genuinely might be in flux with the units that dropped today but
up til now you do ardor blossom faust and then cinq east don, liu yi sang, dawn office sinclair, magic bullet outis, firefist gregor and your choice of liu rodya/ishmael((generally people prefer rodya)
ardor blossom faust is sorta optional since her main goal is to blow up, which doesnt work as well if you go to mirror dungeon but its good in high difficulty content

#

the problem with this team is that a solid third of it is walpurgis locked and to have full power outis you need a walpurgis ego in addition

runic ether
#

oof

#

well maybe something to work towards eventually

slow raft
#

walpurgis should come about eventually and who knows, maybe the thumb ids are actually optimal

long tree
#

I legit think genshin plot has lost me after this point to where I am considering just dropping it harder than I usually do (ie full on quiting rather than popping in for characters I like)

#

5 years spent doing a run around of being passed from person to person getting a big fat "idk not my problem cant help you anyways, btw save us pls" and this is what it was building up to?

runic ether
#

just no way even i cant push my luck

slow raft
#

i do advise you to save resources with walpurgis on the horizon

runic ether
#

i did get the bp + a monthly

slow raft
#

you can always just shard them if it turns out theyre good for a team you like

runic ether
#

true thats what i plan for mao ryoshu and princess rodya

#

also when uptying ego, same rule as ids. just go for max when possible. no reason to leave some un-upgraded given time?

slow raft
#

in due time you want to max them all out yes but there are again large gaps between how much ut4 is

runic ether
#

i noticed. it is asking for quite a lot.

slow raft
#

like fluidsack for example benefits massively from it and theres a bunch that gain attack weight

runic ether
#

i was thinking of biting the bullet on fluidsack when i can next

slow raft
#

im not afraid to admit that i was hard carried by fluidsack for atleast a year

runic ether
#

fluidsack has come in omegaclutch in all content especially as things pick up in difficulty

slow raft
#

honestly anything that regens sanity is already good

#

sunshower, blind obsession, even gregors bygone days

runic ether
#

and then i can leave the big damage egos for later since the clash matters but a lot less

slow raft
#

i mean most egos dont even do that much damage

#

only at waw level do you really start to actually contest with newer units skill 3s

runic ether
#

ah okay

#

the egos are clash monsters at least if i need to win a clash (ricardo exception)

slow raft
#

yeah clashing or utility is mostly what i use them for

#

also when youre fighting mutiple targets, as high attack weight isnt as common in base skills

runic ether
#

huh i never really noticed that most egos have like 3x the weight

slow raft
#

sometimes when you look at an ego uptie 4 and yourself "wow this changes literally nothing" the change is actually to the attack weight

runic ether
slow raft
old galleon
#

does he like to get naked

rapid bough
#

he's currently giving out triple disks, put some respect on his name

old galleon
#

he shares a name with noted exihibitionist roland from fgo, i'm obligated to joke about it

slow raft
#

(The joke her is about a different guy named roland)

rapid bough
#

i'm not to the end yet, but man i've gotta say shift up has really cooked for this collab story

#

this feels like it could've been a real event or side story in the nikke universe and has actual lore and character development

#

it's waaaaaaay better than the other collab stories

old galleon
#

correct, at least of the ones i've read

glossy latch
#

I have had a (small) realisation about WuWa

#

The implied lore in the environments is kinda more interesting than the lore we actually get to see

#

Like why is every regions moon different and wrong

rapid bough
#

i think ZZZ does this too, and honestly i think it very well could be a gacha issue in general

#

the worldbuilding outpaces the medium's actual storytelling capability

glossy latch
#

Genshin at least actually incorporates its worldbuilding into the story

#

Even if its not always done well

runic ether
#

genshin-

#

beat me to it

#

lol

#

eah

#

genshin has flaws sometimes, but it really heavily incorporates its worldbuilding and lore together

glossy latch
#

But in WuWa its like, the entire world is kind of a fucked up eldritch location, but the plots we get are usually local and much lower stakes

runic ether
#

zzz does it too but its not nearly as integrated as it is in genshin

glossy latch
#

I guess its because you want the story to be character focused since thats what youre selling

#

And eldritch stuff doesnt really lend itself as well for that

runic ether
#

every last aspect from mora (money), to artifacts has lore reasonings and explanations and tie ins

copper steppe
summer hornet
#

Ruminating over things again in Genshin and I love the passive aggressive drama flair from Lyney here

#

||Furina called him a fraud of a magician to his face and tried to put him in jail, so he made an even BETTER magic trick using her as the basis||

glossy latch
#

At this point I feel like I could actually make a video essay on gacha storytelling and its downfalls (though Id be limited by the ones Ive played sooo)

summer hornet
#

Well

#

You've got plenty of people here to interview about gacha trauma lol

runic ether
copper steppe
#

potato potahto (?)

slow raft
#

At most the "story starts out lackluster" thing is something you can say is universal

rapid bough
#

i'd argue that's why the worldbuilding in most relevant games is actually quite good

#

to maintain a steady content cycle, you actually need a fleshed out world to put it in

#

of course, the drawback of constantly needing to move on to The Next Big Thing is that it often leaves characters or plot points in the dust and forgotten

glossy latch
#

Yeah

runic ether
#

really appreciate that off zzz where no character so far really gets left behind too badly

slow raft
runic ether
#

genshin def got caught in that cycle in natlan

#

but natlan was handled like a shounen and it just didnt work

slow raft
#

I cant really talk much bout genshin i dropped it midway through inazuma

rapid bough
#

but i think that's actually more a casualty of its many story rewrites than any weakness of the medium itself

runic ether
#

it really does get a whole lot better in sumeru

#

fontaine too

runic ether
#

couple of times

#

not in the main story but shes always around

rapid bough
#

wasn't it the new year's patch when we got some strong allusions to what corin's past was

slow raft
#

Id hope so, the best i could say of the story up til that point was that it didnt stay as bad as it begann

rapid bough
#

tbh i feel like the most abandoned character so far is zhu yuan lol

#

they've really done her dirty in the post-bringer plot

runic ether
#

she'll be back as we get more bringer stuff

late canopy
#

This is why I find horse such a breath of fresh air a lot of times, instead of a grand on-going story, it's mainly just a huge number of standalone good self contained stories

runic ether
#

we still have to deal with her response to it later

rapid bough
#

jane has also largely been forgotten but given her job it's kinda hard to work her into the current plotlines

#

gotta imagine she pops up as an undercover agent in some exaltist cell eventually

runic ether
#

okay heres my theory

#

damian

#

and jane

#

are working together

#

its pure cope

#

but

#

damian gives me jane vibes

#

idk if u see it

rapid bough
#

i don't

glossy latch
#

Realistically standalone stories would be the way to go

#

But you lose the draw of a big new region

runic ether
#

they both feel like actors for their faction(s)

rapid bough
#

damian gives me smarmy corporate shitter vibes

#

perhaps not a bad person but forced to toe the company line

runic ether
#

and yet we saw him in hia gear with the bunny thiren

#

and likely in a hollow

#

hes for sure more important and im betting hes a double agent

rapid bough
#

feels like if that's the reveal they're going for, it's a bit late in the game ||and implies some gross negligence as he fumbled about helplessly while the exaltists nearly fucking merced all of failume heights||

runic ether
#

yeah i dont expect him and bunny to be playable soon

#

it'll be like

#

2.3 we see hints of him being playable

glossy latch
#

Granted WuWa kinda is doing standalone stories with its new region (sort of) sooo

#

Idk

late canopy
#

Horse also differs itself by having its stories be relatively personal and low stakes

rapid bough
runic ether
#

oh for sure

#

i do think that he might actually be slightly incompetent and the bunny is like the main mastermind

#

i have a feeling they'll be a double agent

#

like gameplay involves both of them at the same time

rapid bough
#

"incompetent double agent" isn't the best playable character pitch lol

runic ether
#

i mean

#

it'd be pretty funny if pulled off

slow raft
#

Me when i roll a 74 with my unbreakable coin skill(still not as broken as mao faust somehow)
(subtle spoiler protection for story relevant bosses)

runic ether
#

mao faust is just another tier is my understanding

runic ether
slow raft
#

Idt shes as universal as ringsang or as limiting for the archetype as talisman but shes just too good at what she does and does too much

runic ether
#

the nerf didnt even seem that crazy too

slow raft
#

It was just a consistency nerf

#

The frequency with which she can go sicko mode and faust all over the enemies was too high

#

Honestly a perfectly reasonable nerf but ah well

runic ether
#

my so got this and i rolled it and ughhhh if it was any other character besides hyacine

#

this would be a god piece

#

i may reroll it. if it landed most into cdmg, this would be goated as hell

digital marlin
digital marlin
#

it feels weird to give her a skin considering how she is going to be Sam in battle eitherway

runic ether
#

oh man its worse than i thought

#

at least sam is supposed to change too

#

this being the 2nd skin for hsr is such a letdown

digital marlin
#

man this is funny in horrendous way

#

first skin was only for OG march when everyone is using her hunt form and now the second skin is for firefly

runic ether
#

for such a popular character, the skin should have been good

#

this isnt gonna help the ppl who dislike her

digital marlin
runic ether
#

it can go a long way

summer hornet
#

It could have

#

Concert fits or the Glamoth Iron Calvary uniform

#

Even the outfit from the Battle Pass (that would have been extra good, since Sam has a variation there too)

#

I really wonder just what the hangup is with HSR in that regard

#

I might be reaching, but it feels like mechanical limitations with the way they design battle animations has been a huge hangup in several areas- costumes, Memosprites, and (my personal unsupported opinion) extra 4-stars

glossy latch
#

8th Pulchra

#

Wtf

runic ether

#

damn i didn't realize the 5 rainbow tickets in that insane value bd2 bundle i posted the other day were these selection tickets

#

some of these options are nutty to just be able to choose outright

#

(specifically h.lathel, diana, and helena, all BIS supports in various types of content/teams)

#

unfortunately i already had those at +5 so i have to choose other options, but several of the other costumes are good too

also used the 100 selective draw tickets to finally - FINALLY - get wedding refi

we have seen greedier in this very game

Nah not when saber doesnt use the same pity pool

This is biblical levels of greed

summer hornet

she does share a pity pool with Archer

you may even get lucky and get archer e1 over saber

#

apparently the AL community is malding over the design of the recently revealed KMS admiral zekner for *checks notes* showing too much skin

#

like i'm not gonna post it here but it's no better or worse than like any shipgirl design in the last 2 years

old galleon
#

is that the actual critique?

rapid bough
#

imo yes, though it's buried in the "but muh ironbloods should be military coded and not fanservicey" rationale

#

they really released fritz rumey and people thought she wasn't the exception

old galleon
#

did they say this back in like 2021 when heinric was released

rapid bough
#

almost certainly not

#

or hell even a more recent ironblood event had like

#

alvitr

#

double hell, even fritz's own event had z52

old galleon
#

okay tbf i don't like z52's default design that much

#

it's not terrible but it doesn't do it for me

#

(her skin is good)

rapid bough
#

i mean i agree, her default design is kinda whatever but it's definitely very fanservicey lol

old galleon
#

many such cases

rapid bough
#

i'd say that playing AL and complaining about designs being too lewd means you're playing the wrong game

old galleon
#

anyway, if you're referring to a specific post, i think i know which one it is, and there's notable pushback in the comments

rapid bough
#

but zekner isn't even too lewd by normal AL standards

old galleon
#

so i wouldn't say it's universal criticism by any means

#

i wouldn't post zekner's art in here without spoilering it, but that's true of way more than just her

rapid bough
#

i mean yeah but it's top of the subreddit right now

#

it's certainly generating no small amount of discussion, much more than any ship design discourse i've seen recently

i've decided i'm gonna pull for her and see what the 50 holds, if i lose i'm saving the guarantee for yuzu

#

but my eyes have been opened to the fact that her trial modes really sold her short

runic ether
#

yeah shes not too bad

rapid bough
#

she sucks in lemnian hollow exploration since it starts you with 0 energy, and she sucks in the currently running VR event because her trial loadout sucks

#

once you can consistently get energy she actually kinda slaps

runic ether
#

i'd say if no pulchra m6 or trigger, she's pretty nice to have

rapid bough
#

me without m6 pulchra or trigger:

#

another angle is that i think she's better than trigger if neither have sig, but worse than trigger if both have sigs (i.e., trigger's sig is cracked, but fufu is better at base)

#

and while i love trigger, having to lock in for both her and her sig as a support is kinda big lame

#

part of me just wants to optimize yixuan tho because she's so fun (and hot), similar to evelyn

#

and i'm pretty sure fufu is yixuan's BIS stunner

#

also she is very cute and that is blessed

#

hoyo should make that baseline (along with making entrance animations more common please) tbh

#

embed please you piece of shit app

runic ether
#

that was pretty sick way to intro characters

#

that should really be an option

honest pawn
#

they whitewashed archer

#

they also cut his chant by like 90%

#

which is understandable

long tree
#

Its hard to call it white washing for Archer because Archer isnt actually black, it could just be Archer semi burnt rather than fully

honest pawn

FGO does the same thing

now that i've actually finished the collab story, i can comfortably say that this is not only far and away the best nikke collab event i've played (it's the fourth, with the other three being both eva collabs and the re:zero collab), i'd honestly put it at or near the top tier of nikke events as a whole

#

shift up definitely cooked with this one, shame about the tech difficulties that have accompanied it

old galleon
#

story is good, yes

rapid bough
#

it did the impossible and made me actually like privaty

#

truly monumental for that reason alone

old galleon
#

it's up there with another eden's collabs in terms of the effort put into making the story more than just a cheap tie-in between two disparate properties

(in general anyway; kof story sucked ass)

biggest W is that the map relic that opens up at the end of the story finally unlocks the main collab theme (on the login screen) for the jukebox

been wanting that for my lobby ever since the collab launched

I'm not talking design sauce im talking gameplay sauce

even if its improved

#

oh ehhh thats also p subjective

#

wuwa fails to hit some of the same nuance that genshin's elemental system does tho this is mostly player preference

long tree
#

I'm mainly just memeing because the main story of genshin really feels like it jumped the shark to me this last chapter and im coping with 5 years down the toilet

runic ether
#

i cant really agree with that overall. latest chapter is solid and if its the worst of nod krai it'll only get better again

#

plus fontaine and sumeru's story are still just really damn good

glossy latch
#

Idk I like WuWas designs mostly

long tree
#

Its mainly just like... the other travelers motive

#

It just paints them as awful

runic ether

i find wuwa's designs to be off

idk what it is

"I fucked up and im about to make it everyone's problem" type shit

runic ether
#

thats a good thing

#

abyss twin morally questionable is good

long tree
#

Morally questionable is one thing

#

But we've actively seen the harm theyre doing and the ends do not justify the means

#

At all

#

You'd have to assume that the kingdom had a population in the thousands to justify it even doing life for life trade

#

This is just wanting a salty run back because they fucked up

#

And people are dying for it

runic ether
#

we say this from the perspective of the smaller scope we are viewing right now in the story even though out of it the net benefit would be massive if possible. of course the whole, end of the rest of the world would be good to avoid

rapid bough
#

i've never played wuwa but if i ever do i think the character designs and general aesthetic will be what make me do so

runic ether
#

top of the fact that it also again, really makes a more compelling villain since the motivation is clearly emotional rather than logical

long tree
#

Its just makes me see them as just a complete ass

runic ether
#

thats literally a good thing

#

we dont need to humanize a faction/leaders for every single group

#

having an actual proper antagonist is good

long tree
#

Not for me though, because it makes me feel like ive wasted my time, I wanted more out of it than just "i want my salty run back"

runic ether
#

we have other morally grey antagonists

#

simple is good too

long tree
#

None of which I found particularly compelling

#

It was all in how they characterised the sibling for me

#

And they blew it imo

runic ether
#

wha

#

i mean like

#

sure

#

but the sibling was never going to be the bigger immediate focus so not sure why the focus on it

#

and having a motivation like that driving them is pretty good parallel to the traveler so far

But to frame it as this big moral dilemma throught it all of the abyss vs dain vs the archon is just

#

And earlier pity

long tree
runic ether
#

its not events

#

events can give better context for characters like raiden and hu tao recently

#

but this is just more or less reading the actual story context for as to whats going on since ur painting it as more simple (this is also a fault of genshin overall the overarching story is getting complicated in and of itself)

long tree
#

I think the only bits of the story i liked of genshin were sumeru and Fontaine. I found the rest just very mediocre. Sumeru was in spite of wanderer. I just don't like characters who make their issues everyone else's problem.

#

Which is funny given a lot of genshin is just "here's my problem, deal with it for me"

#

Like arlecchino I liked a lot she had a very clear reason for doing what she does

#

Somewhat the same with childe

runic ether
#

wanderer was really not that at all

#

he pretty explicitly wants his problems to not be anyone else's problems

long tree
#

I mightve just forgotten enough about him over time that its gotten to my reductionist disliking of him

runic ether
#

we butt in despite it

long tree
#

When i say problems I also mean like "im dealing with it myself despite the obvious harm im doing to everyone else"

#

Ie by not processing problems and harming others you make your problems other people's to solve

runic ether
#

he still didnt do that

#

he went out of his way to remove his existence from the world to prevent that from even being a thing too

#

the only reason it didnt work was because the traveler butts in and makes it their problem

long tree
#

I legit don't remember

runic ether
#

and his initial motivation was literally just to usurp the world and become a new god

#

thats just a pretty standard villain motivation

runic ether
#

thats the whole reason for the second half of sumeru's storyline

long tree
#

Im strange because I either like my villains insanely basic like there is no attempt to justify (kefka) or insanely complex (renoir from expedition 33) to the point where I don't like it when something tries to play both sides.

#

I think it is just a personal thing

runic ether
#

first half is dealing with an egomaniac (who technically has all rights to being this way)

#

second is then making his problems our problem

long tree
#

I think it is just I wasn't getting the depth out of the antagonists I was hoping for out of other villains in genshin quite enough and was hoping the sibling would be there to offer some sort of actual understandable logical reasoning with some light emotional backing

runic ether
#

you're looking at the fatui for that

long tree
#

Yeah i liked arlecchino and childe

runic ether
#

which should be 2 whole patch cycles fleshing them out between nod krai and the next region

#

like yeah absolutely that genshin is very flawed and its story has some overarching flaws but this last chapter was definitely not that flawed from the overarching narrative

#

the only thing i really judge this latest chapter over

#

||is that skirk feels close to the traveler. the reasoning makes sense but i dont like it. i also hate how they have basically just ruined citlali as a character by having her be the jealous type but she was doomed when she became a traveler love interest anyways||

long tree
#

It probably is just me being reductionist but I initially joined with the story thread of "i need to find my sibling" and the pay off to that being "they left without even a damn note because they wanted a salty run back and no they aren't coming back till they get it" just kinda hurt me. That compiled with the literal years being passed around as everyone's personal problem solver without getting much back

runic ether
#

i do like that contrast between siblings

#

one is willing to doom a world for a runback

#

the other is running ragged trying to help everyone

#

it shows why only one has the will to challenge the world

#

and the other needs the loom

long tree
#

I liked it when the traveler was starting to throw sass at people because he always had to help but it didn't really mean much to me without him going "nah fuck this", there's a difference between being a good guy and being an absolute doormat of a person

#

Sorry using gendered language because of my character choice

runic ether
#

thats definitely a fault with "we need the game to progress."

#

just kind of a video game issue as a whole tho

#

cant really just have them write a "well i guess this quest is not happening so game over"

#

even though hsr does that sometimes

long tree
#

Its more of a live service game issue, but its just i feel such frustration for the main traveler that it makes me not want to play the game

runic ether
#

its still not really "good"

#

nah if anything its an rpg issue

#

removing the actual choice from a decision/railroading because you need to progress the story just is rather normal

long tree
#

Ehh I'd disagree mainly because a lot of the main rpgs i like that are universally considered good do just have "fuck this" options that are extremely valid

runic ether
#

right but think of how many there are that actually have those meaningful changes and how many of those same games have railroad moments anyways

digital marlin
long tree
#

I don't mind light rail roading

#

It is just the live service years long rail roading

runic ether
#

at that point, its not really railroading its just the story they want to tell

#

neither the traveler nor the trailblazer nor belle or wise are self-inserts. they are their own characters atp

#

if anything, i'd like them to remove more of the dialogue boxes

long tree
#

I suppose, but my point is that because of it i just feel its lost me

runic ether
#

just across the board

long tree
#

Illusion of choice is another big thing in this and I actually do like the choice they gave you at the end of the quest this genshin patch despite it ending about the same

#

Like that felt like it actually mattered to some degree even if it kinda sorta doesn't in the long run and the "right" answer is spoonfed to you

versed pawn

downside is tho while guranteed 4 star options are really bad overall but it allows to prepare spending i guess

i assume it's something to do with raven or solo raid or co-op or all of those

so that's fun

old galleon
old galleon

honestly it looks kinda complicated how it'd require nerfing mihara specifically, idek if i understand it fully

#

but in terms of their performance, mihara seems to be a special snowflake who has unique behavior with regards to how her dots work

#

rather than fixing whatever issues existed with the core mechanic, their mihara fix seems to have been something that made her just work differently

#

the result is that raven gets to suffer : ^)

if you can decipher wtf he's saying in the mihara section of this video, do let me know

GIVE PRAISE, FOR HE HAS NO EQUAL

runic ether
#

gay ppl can never dress normal

#

they always gotta be on some world-destroying shit

rapid bough
#

my interpretation is basically

#

the way things currently work, applying a new stack of a DoT resets the amount of time until its next tick. for raven this is effectively doubling the amount of time between her DoT ticks while she's actively attacking

digital marlin
old galleon
#

lucius could never

honest pawn
#

GIVE PRAISE FOR HE HAS NO EQUAL

digital marlin
rapid bough
#

to avoid this affecting mihara they did something special for her where her DoT ticks 0.5 sec after a stack is applied, because her stack application happens more than once per second. this, in effect, is making her DoT tick slightly faster than it otherwise would, so she actually is benefitting from the jank

old galleon
#

i mean, lucius is definitely not lucilius : ^)

digital marlin
#

Auto correct

rapid bough
#

sky's point is that if they fix the "DoT application resets tick time" for raven, they might fix it for mihara too and revert her to basic non-special case behavior, and she'd lose the pseudo-fast DoT tick she currently benefits from

#

that is my likely mistaken understanding

old galleon
#

my takeaway is that shift up cannot catch a fuckin break

rapid bough
#

there's so many layers of jank happening here that i'm struggling to separate it from my picture of a basic fucking DoT implementation

rapid bough

i haven't had problems with inputs not working, but it is very brutal with locking you in animation

fairly sure the real game either doesn't lock you in animation, or gives you iframes during long animations where you can't do anything

at least that's what other games of the genre always do

okay

switched my attack style to the faster one

beat a boss that took me legit like fifteen tries because the slow attack animations felt so bad

my strat has been to get the beta energy exospine + the 3 and 2 star beta energy gears

then fully upgrade the 3 hit beta attack (triplet i think?) + get whatever skill gives you a beta refund and the one that gives you a fourth hit at the end of the chain if you press the beta attack button again

#

then hit perfect parries for beta energy and spam triplet + the fourth attack

beta attacks give iframes so you can just button mash that shit

aglaea is good but lingsha is actually the best dps in the game?

rapid bough
#

evelyn/lighter/astra just absolutely dumpstered ether 12 lost void damn

#

ult/decibel boosts + evelyn's ability to give her 3 embers and a full gauge when she ults is so unfair lol

A prophecy known as the "Theory of Four Apocalypses" circulates among the Omen Vanguards — That four Paths will push the cosmos to an end of Finality.
Destruction is one of them — Nanook's flame shall devour all. In the heat death, the universe meets its first fate: an eternal end.
In their terror, mortals asked: from where does THEIR Primum...

No warning, as always

#

There’s a lot going on in this one, I’m not sure how much is hyperbole and how much is literal

#

But we got a clear glimpse at the Emanators of Destruction… and confirmation that ||Phainon is Irontomb||

#

||Does seem like another return to Belobog is in the books, one way or another||

#

Also, use closed captions if you can

#

Jiaoqiu and Feixiao’s lines are missing in the English dub

#

Ah pensivecowboybread

runic ether
#

which

#

knowing the lore

#

||makes no sense for how phainon is themed around the sun. we know there is literally a lord ravager named sun devourer and hes... not phainon? despite the sun themes and all that its... irontomb???||

summer hornet
#

||I did see some comments on YT (Mina’s reaction lol) saying that Irontomb was apparently supposed to be mechanical||

runic ether
#

yep

#

well

#

||not mechanical, but a lord ravager that exist within the digital space||

summer hornet
#

Ohhhhh

#

So it still works, on a technicality

runic ether
#

||which, kinda fits if amphoreus is a simulation (it almost certainly ist)||

summer hornet
#

||this whole trailer was depicting a doomsday scenario predicted by the Xianzhou’s calculation device, where some sort of Anti-Organic Equation variant destroyed every planet we’ve ever visited lol||

#

||Plus the ‘black tide’ and Screwllum’s comments about the Scepter and all that||

#

||I’d be more surprised if Amphoreus wasn’t a simulation||

runic ether
#

||yeah which again, super scales rupert so hard lmao||

#

||he didnt even follow an aeon after his second iteration and now its likely his 3rd is going to fuck everything up again in some capacity||

summer hornet
#

||I mean Rupert was already crazy terrifying, no? Again, his first and second incarnations already nearly broke the universe||

runic ether
#

||no yeah thats what i mean. hes been dead twice now and still destroying the universe or bringing it closer to yet again||

#

||also interesting to note: polka kakkamond is not an emanator and she killed him twice now too||

#

||hes not an emanator either and weilds more authority and power than them for most cases as well||

summer hornet
#

||Phainon will be an Emanator, if he emerges ‘properly’. And I think? That’s why Erudition would fall, because he’d supercharge the Anti-Organic Equation with Destruction power or something||

#

||But yeah it’s wild that the potential cyber apocalypse never warranted any direct Aeon intervention (unless Polka counts)||

runic ether
#

||polka will solo this unfortunately. just like before.||

#

||and yes we knew. the thing we are trying to figure out though is phainon will actually be evil. even in hi3rd, kevin became an antagonist but for the side of good. giving mei, kiana, and bronya, 2/3 in this trailer btw, a test to see if humanity was truly able to surpass the honkai||

#

||and all signs are pointing, given his lc description, that this may not actually go the way the other lord ravagers would want it to go when irontomb breaks free||

#

||the intervention of the paths have introduced too much good/kindness into phainon for him to fall and it'd be interesting to see him emerge, and turn on them.||

summer hornet
#

||Phainon and Acheron, 2 for 2 with busted Emanators calling back to HI3 lol. And both on our side!||

#

||What the heck was up with Acheron’s part of the trailer, btw||

#

||Couldn’t fully parse it but it seemed like Destruction made some superweapon that eats at nihility? Like a white hole?||

runic ether
#

||she's on her quest to kill the nihility so she was likely asking some sin thirsters about what they saw in the shadow of ix||

#

||and it likely involves something of the destruction probably one of the lord ravagers attacking the nihility||

summer hornet
#

Ahhh

#

Oh of course

#

||Phantyllia countered/used Abundance and Hunt, Phainon is clearly meant to target Erudition||

runic ether
#

||they are setting themselves up (the lord ravagers) to fight a specific aeon to destroy everything is what i gleam||

summer hornet
#

||That’s… so funny lol. Mainly because Duke Inferno was trying to do that too lmao||

#

||Clearly he was inspired||

runic ether
#

||and you know what, them being flamechasers, just like in hi3rd||

#

||who the 13 of them broke the path forward for humanity to have a good ending||

#

||yeah i just know where it will lead||

summer hornet
#

||We’re not gonna be able to interact with anyone from Amphoreus after this, are we||

#

||How the heck is Amphoreus ‘supposed to re-enter the universe’ after this lol||

runic ether
#

||well in hi3rd, they actually just are gone forever||

runic ether
#

saw a comment that they need to see surtalogi and zephyro duke it out

#

not for powerscaling or bickering but for sheer aura of the spectacle

#

surtalogi destroying galaxies vs zephyro destroying multiple planets and being a threat to the nihility

lusty egret
#

Oh my @summer hornet @mortal iron

lusty egret
#

The team did better than expected

#

Only received a single loss to get here (Then immediately crushed by the whales of Master League)

mortal iron
#

@summer hornet @lusty egret

lusty egret
#

OSHIT HI NU

mortal iron
#

That makes sense

#

It was weird to like make another nu UR, so hi Nu makes alot of sense

#

So yeah we getting developable nu

lusty egret
#

Good to know we're getting Dadmuro

mortal iron
#

Im rolling

#

Also cool that impulse isnt gonna get milked to multiple units

#

It can transform to all 3 configurations

lusty egret
#

Yeah surprised it just collected in one

idle grove
#

new muvluv mobile game, surely this will not also end in disaster clueless

mortal iron
lusty egret
mortal iron
#

Destiny and CCA drops at the 30th of june

lusty egret
#

Nightingale

#

It's weird amalgamation of movie and novel

mortal iron
#

Yeah very weird the developable is BC CCA

#

But the story mode is CCA because of chan

#

Also wow sd gundam in a sd game, the novelty

lusty egret
mortal iron
lusty egret
#

Setting BGM huh? Noice

mortal iron
#

Livestream is here if anyone's curious

#

They showed off alot of new units attacks

#

partial suggesting it's not all cca

slow raft
mortal iron
#

im guessing this will be region locked

#

because they have region locked codes once before

#

the SSR phoenix was the same kind of propmotion and it ended up in g-shop

lusty egret
#

Dang that's one hella elaborated EX attack

mortal iron
#

yeah so when we get CCA part 2 im guessing they would make the nightingale the UR limited

#

i think like the next road map we should finish a story mode like X or G

summer hornet
#

Man that's a LOT

#

CCA and Destiny in July, then the IBO side story before season 2 lol

#

Plus a mix of BC and movie version for CCA

mortal iron
#

yeah CCA and destiny in 30th of june is alot

summer hornet
mortal iron
#

it's how like wing or epyon transforms

#

you can just press a button and it transforms to whichever form you want

summer hornet
#

Ohhh, the waverider transformation

#

Lol that would do it

mortal iron
#

yeah like those but with 2 more configurations

lusty egret
#

Its neat

#

Like how Liger Zero can change mode on the spot in ZOIDS RPG

mortal iron
#

also who is this alex dino

#

maybe if he puts on some shades i can recognise him
