#

i might as well do some learning while i wait

#

so do i have to pull to complete events

#

or is this like, a game where i can work with the stuff i get

#

roster wise

#

is it a dokkan in powercreep

late canopy
#

If Dokkan is like Legends, then horse is nowhere near that bad

late canopy
#

But you don't need to pull for anything specific to do an event signifigantly better

mortal iron
#

so everything is doable f2p wise

late canopy
#

Yes but the long term goals of the game I would say is primarily pvp

#

There's only so many times you can train the same horse without having a reason to do so before you get bored

#

PvP is usually the reason you would do it

mortal iron
#

ah

#

is PvP rewards really good or they okayge

late canopy
#

Monthly tournaments

#

Bottom of the barrel rewards

#

Approx 1 tenfold

mortal iron
#

like in sd gundam eternal, like you dont need to max out on things, you just need 150k points in pvp

late canopy
#

If you try but do pretty bad

#

If you do the best you can

#

2 tenfolds

#

So the reward difference is more than manageable

mortal iron
#

i see

late canopy
#

I would recommend to get interested in the pvp

#

And try as hard as you feel comfortable trying

#

That's the best way to enjoy this game imo

mortal iron
#

so when is top road

#

give me her

late canopy
#

2.5 years

late canopy
#

I own Top Road on TW

mortal iron
#

Brother i am sick

#

the ailment is destroying me

late canopy
#

😔

mortal iron
#

why is opera so early compared to top road

late canopy
#

I dunno

#

Working theory is top road's owner wanted her to be released around kikkua sho

#

Which is around when JP 2.5 was

#

And Top road didn't exist in the game at all until she became a card 1 year in

mortal iron
#

what about jungle

late canopy
#

A little over 3 years

#

Shortly after the movie iirc

mortal iron
#

okay so everyone i want is nowhere close to release

late canopy
#

TW doesn't have her yet

#

Who else do you want

mortal iron
#

just those 2

summer hornet
#

I want to get Build Strike uncapped… but the better choice overall would be to grab the Deathscythe Hell, wouldn’t it

late canopy
#

Oh

#

Yeah

#

You'll be waiting

mortal iron
#

my mistake was going super hard on strike freedom banner thinking justice was also limited run

#

but then i got 2 justices in zeta and deathscythe banner

late canopy
#

Positive on Steam

#

Duality of Cygames

#

Honse vs Shadowverse

summer hornet
#

What’s GBVSR looking like again?

#

(Along with Relink)

mortal iron
#

will you summon for hi nu gundam?

summer hornet
#

Nah

#

I’m gonna build up my stocks for the next three months lol

mortal iron
#

incase of a build fighters unit UR eh?

summer hornet
mortal iron
#

fair enough

summer hornet
#

Or 00, potentially WFM or IBO depending on the character

mortal iron
#

im easy summoning sheep, if i see a suit i like, i smash

#

i've only skipped the gp02 banner coz whilst a very good unit, i dont really care for gp02 or gato too much

summer hornet
#

The dev tree is too good and the gem income is too low for me to go all in on everything lol

#

So I’m trying to focus on the stuff I really really like

mortal iron
#

fair

#

i just happens to really really like hi nu

#

and zeta and deathscythe hell

summer hornet
#

I respect it

mortal iron
#

i will save on the thunderbolts banner

#

i havent seen the movie or read the manga so i have no attachment

#

then afterwards no idea what banners could be

summer hornet
#

Daryl’s cool, but both the Full Armor and Psycho Zaku are too bulky for my taste lol

mortal iron
#

watch them be busted as shit like gato

#

it's so funny

#

how good gato is but i just cannot care

summer hornet
#

At least one of them is going to be, lol

#

Is Gato actually busted? Like I know he’s good, but

mortal iron
#

well his AOE attack is like the best in game

#

so i've heard

summer hornet
#

Oh right, the nuke MAP attack

mortal iron
#

his next UR should just be a colony drop

#

and somehow nothing happens

#

not like it doesnt cause destruction, just like no one seems to reference or care

slow raft
late canopy
#

I made a USA steam account with VPN

#

Just so I can play uma on Steam

#

And probably be able to spend in it

mortal iron
late canopy
#

No Im going to bind the one I have on mobile to it

#

Also even if I intended this to be seperate, that would be 3rd

#

I play TW on mobile and global on mobile

mortal iron
#

ah okay

#

i thought you were going insane

late canopy
#

Hopefully I can just bind the global on mobile to be the same as the one on steam

#

Ive already gone insane starting two of this game

#

Have I ever mentioned how much I like this franchise

mortal iron
#

if you weren't restricted by your space

#

you would totally have all those figures

late canopy
#

Yes

#

I definitely have the money

#

I am only restricted by my space and sense of financial responsbility

summer hornet
#

You were right Revz, getting Duo has already been enough to propel me to Master Rank Challenge Mode

late canopy
#

Im already considering buying a 4000 dollar Tudor watch

mortal iron
#

THE GOD OF DEATH HAS RETURNED

#

hoo boy

mortal iron
summer hornet
#

I just closed the app, but I was barely over 150k

#

Seems that was the line though

mortal iron
#

yeah 150k gets you all the gem, token rewards

#

the things above it is just a banner

#

oh btw did you finish the map event

#

if you havent duo can make the score attack thing easier

summer hornet
#

zoomeyes no I hadn’t

#

I only completed Score Attack once, I’ll go back to that tomorrow

mortal iron
#

yeah the key to get the highest points is to make all the supports hit with your hardest guy against the wing zero

#

duo just makes it easier for your wing guys to not die

#

he doesnt make the event like easier damage wise

#

took me alot of tries and guidance

late canopy
#

Even just logging onto steam gives you stuff

#

Also looks like it works!

#

That's my mobile account on pc

old galleon
#

anis and neon are the kids lmao

rapid bough
#

yep lmao

timber sigil
#

I'm built diff

#

But also if it makes you feel better this is probably the final time I post a Peritya mystery box pic

rapid bough
#

i don't believe you since now you should be posting any further dupes you get just to rub it in my face

#

do you exchange any currencies to buy extra mystery box pull tickets? or is this just with the passive pulls you get from dispatches?

timber sigil
#

Yeah I exchange whatever I have excess of

rapid bough
#

i guess that's probably a significant difference

timber sigil
#

Since I have every unit + their weapon max level I have a massive overflow of combat reports

rapid bough
#

i don't exchange anything, i just use dispatch tokens

#

i prolly should exchange more but meh

#

still i'd wager you're waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay above rate on pulling peritya from mystery box 4 times (i think it's been)

timber sigil
#

Yeah it's been 4

#

Other 3 were from losing 50/50s

rapid bough
#

i have v1 peritya and both were lost 50s

mortal iron
#

@late canopy nyoooo I was so close

#

She came in 2nd and everytime I retries she came worse

late canopy
#

OOOO

#

Good attempt though

#

Got very far

#

At this point they preferably have 600 or 700+ speed

mortal iron
#

I just want new units man UmaruCry

late canopy

Time to throw another tenfold at the horses

Stats be damned this honse can fast

late canopy
#

1000% output

#

All speed

#

A little bit dumb but she's got the spirit

long tree
#

She's got the idiots forehead its not all her fault

late canopy
#

Blame her trainer who kept pumping nothing but speed into her and caused her to not read enough books

mortal iron
#

Dang

#

I've been smashing my brain for ages trying to scrape by

#

Also my pulls sucked and nothing noteworthy

late canopy
#

rip

#

I would try not to pull too much more because the plan is a very good SSR speed card coming in a few weeks time

#

The one time rewards should allow for 30k to be had by the time that card arrives

mortal iron
#

i dunno if i can do that

#

lucks not on my side

Older woman spotted

FUCK

idle grove
#

is that game actually 75gb

mortal iron
#

i think im done with uma

long tree
#

Bro rerolled and dipped a day later, a true gacha gamer

runic ether
mortal iron
#

i already used all my pulls out of despair

#

i think that's a sign for me to stop

idle grove
mortal iron
#

no im playing that on my phone

idle grove
#

ah sure

late canopy
#

I'll still be here if you change your mind

#

For many more years

honest pawn

Yanqing is cute...

#

JOHN PERSONA??

mortal iron
#

i am sick i cant beat this new stygian event

#

and im at menacing

slow raft
mortal iron
mortal iron
#

so...i used all my summons on the spe banner coz i got mad at losing

late canopy
#

It's still early, you can either resolve to not pull anymore until later

#

Or start a new account

mortal iron
#

i will just resolve

late canopy
mortal iron
#

does this game have pity

late canopy
#

Pity or spark

mortal iron
#

and i dont mean summon 200 times

#

does pity transfer over to next banners

late canopy
#

Rates do not change the more you pull

#

Nothing is carried between banners

mortal iron
#

so the gundam g eternal system im doomed

late canopy
#

In this game always follow the rule of if you touch a banner

#

Make sure you're ready to go to 200 for it

#

Otherwise don't touch it at all

mortal iron
#

okay so

#

speed> stamina > nothing else

late canopy
#

To keep it simple for now, yes

mortal iron
#

should i do any optional races

#

stop losing early AHHHHHHHHHHH

late canopy
#

Later you will, right now you don't have to

mortal iron
#

but i want the ticket

late canopy
#

Oh I mean the optional races

mortal iron
#

ah

late canopy
#

You should do them eventually

#

The G1 2 3 races

#

Every one you beat will give you carats one time

#

For normal runs right now we have more than enough PT for the skills we have access to

#

Running races is primarily for PT

#

Exception to not running optional right now is if you know you're going to need the extra fans later

#

Either cuz of a literal goal or the requirement needed from a goal race

idle grove
#

we out here rolling

mortal iron
#

@late canopy

#

She placed 3rd on the final race

summer hornet
#

LOVE TO SEE IT

mortal iron
#

if rinko is a support, i will simp

summer hornet
#

....oh gods

#

I'm not ready to face that reality

mortal iron
#

come to think of it

#

i dont think ive pulled a single featured support

#

i guess they mustve had lower rates than the units shrugs

#

which is fine, supports are easy to sub usually

honest pawn
#

I love being in a gacha drought

#

yeah fuck it

#

I'm reinstalling FEH

#

at least there my favorite units are free

old galleon
#

that's hell you're walking into

honest pawn
#

I'd rather spend 10 months building a merge project for Pelleas than spend 2 years saving up currency for a unit I want one (1) copy of in FGO

runic ether
#

damn is fgo that bad

digital marlin
#

Yes

slow raft
#

kinda

digital marlin
#

actually it got better

#

but it still brutal

slow raft
#

on average, for pity you need to save up for about a year

#

usually it works out to get about one ssr in a 3rd of that but ofc you can get of banner units

slow raft
#

i spent all my savings last summer and i have twice of pity now

#

and i did more than 300 pulls in the interim

runic ether
#

thats rough damn

slow raft
#

its not that bad in na since you can plan 2 years ahead

#

my condolences to the jp players tho

digital marlin
#

also powercreep in FGO is barely here tbh

#

most of the power comes from Supports after that you just go for an DPS whos compatible with your supports and your good

honest pawn
#

one of the worst pity systems of all time

slow raft
#

this is true

digital marlin
#

the Big true

slow raft
#

but like statistically you what ive said is true

#

so if you like to gamble you can simply trust that 300 sq is enough to get the servant

idle grove
#

lol, lmao

digital marlin
#

KEK

honest pawn
#

I think also something to note

#

you need to wait. so fucking long. for the next banner of a unit you want.

slow raft
#

this is true

#

fgo does this weird thing where msot of the servants are limited

digital marlin
#

2 year gap is true but patience is a virture as they say

#

OH

#

you mean the reruns

#

yeah that one is really annoying

honest pawn
#

dawg I've had relationships that have come and gone in two years

slow raft
#

and after a certain point that just creates the problem that you have to do to many rerun if you wnat to be fair

runic ether
#

cant they just run like 5 banners at a time

honest pawn
#

that's an entire college experience for me

slow raft
runic ether
slow raft
#

(oops sorry ping)

runic ether
#

oh u mean like

digital marlin
#

just gamble in the paid gssr

slow raft
#

theres also rotating banners

runic ether
#

literally everyone and they mms

#

moms

#

are limited

idle grove
#

yeppers

#

like every good support is a limited servant

#

and most of the good dps are too

#

in JP they've kind of fixed that

slow raft
#

yeah theres a roster of non limited servants

idle grove
#

but it's still bad

slow raft
#

and im p sure they added certain servants to it at some point

honest pawn
#

if you like oberon, stand up so nasu can blow your head smooth off with an anti-materiel rifle

digital marlin
#

there is also the story locks too

runic ether
#

story locks?

digital marlin
#

which is one of the weirdest pools

runic ether
#

as in, can only get during the time of the story they were in?

idle grove
#

yeah some servants can't be rolled unless you've beat that chapter

slow raft
#

story locks are most devious for 3 stars

#

still dont have an np cu caster

digital marlin
#

and even after that they only on either banners that have either them as rate ups or story banner

old galleon
#

as one of the bigger fgo fans in this server, story lock is incredibly stupid and should never have been implemented

runic ether
#

what was the logic behind it

slow raft
#

idk

old galleon
#

i get the idea in theory, but keeping them contained to only a non-rate-up banner after the fact

slow raft
#

you have to roll standard banner for a chance at them icant

old galleon
#

oh and also story locked 3 and 4 stars get incredibly fucked by servant coins for it

slow raft
#

oh yeah

#

they have standard banner servant coin numbers, dont they?

honest pawn
#

I hate returning to ANY gacha game after I've played Limbus for almost 500 hours because what do you mean I need to wait upwards of a year for a rate-up

#

at least for Walpurgis I can always spark the units I want the next Walpurgis

old galleon
runic ether
#

when is the next walpurgis anyways

slow raft
honest pawn
runic ether
#

i have like 600 egoshards for ryoshu

slow raft
runic ether
#

i see

glossy latch
#

Why is Stat rail like 30 gigs on phone?

honest pawn
#

a month at the latest probably

old galleon
#

anyway, i figure the idea behind story locked servants is gating access to potential character details/spoilers until after you clear their respective story

slow raft
#

sometime after the new mirror dungeon and thats next week

old galleon
#

which is silly bc you can read up on them anyway just by going to a wiki

slow raft
old galleon
#

also why i assume they mostly don't bother with hiding true names anymore

slow raft
#

or ig that was developed afterwards?

#

right, there were story locked servants before epic of remnant

old galleon
#

well they've always been able to hide profile details behind certain requirements, that's part of the point of getting them to bond 5

#

which makes the concept even dumber

slow raft
#

many things in fgos design just show a lack of foresight

#

we still cant replay story battles outside of certain events

honest pawn
#

I also find it funny that FGO insists on spoilers when the writing is basically "okay so this isn't actually saber but rather it's the unpaid intern Bob Higgins who we've forced at gunpoint to put a wig on and this somehow makes him the most dangerous servant in chaldea (at least until the next ordeal call)"

old galleon
#

did floofy ever get a super recollection?

runic ether
#

wait

#

lol

#

so they rerun story battles?

#

thats crazy

old galleon
#

sometimes, and only certain ones

#

mainly as part of story campaigns

slow raft
#

to test your might mostly

runic ether
#

ah okay

#

why isnt that

#

just a thing

old galleon
#

they do rerun the originals, but yeah, they at some point adde dwhat's called a super recollection

slow raft
runic ether
#

fgo feels more and more like a game u just log in, do ur dailies, and leave type

old galleon
#

which is more or less making the fights giant hp sponges

digital marlin
#

Events are grindfests

old galleon
#

i think woodwose super recollection had around 2m hp per bar

honest pawn
#

you also need to farm event nodes that you can't autobattle

slow raft
#

still need to rely on third party software to properly farm lottos icant

old galleon
#

funny enough i never used fga

honest pawn
#

so you sit there like John Henry fighting the fucking machine

old galleon
#

but i know it's a godsend for those who do

runic ether
#

fgo really sounds like a fever dream of "we were first so"

slow raft
old galleon
slow raft
digital marlin
#

I have started this year and I'm glad I did

old galleon
#

for all we bitch about its flaws now, it's much better than in ye super olde days

old galleon
#

i assume that's about an fgo player but you could tell me this is about the monkeygate guy and i wouldn't doubt it

digital marlin
#

Back in 2015 when it was quite literally being held up by gum duct tape

honest pawn
#

before pity was added there was this one that that spend thousands of bucks to try and get a servant (that he never actually ended up getting)

slow raft
#

didnt we get servant coins earlier too because of some spaghetti code thing too?

old galleon
#

idk if that's the reason, but yeah, we got them i think a year early

#

and then didn't get servant coins for any of the events that ran prior to their intro in jp

honest pawn
#

I should probably uninstall FGO

digital marlin
#

Understandable

digital marlin
#

Despite all it's flaws story and characters are too good for me to give up on

runic ether
#

but that is still pretty crazy hearing that some ppl would spend thousands and get zilch

honest pawn
#

I'll wait until anni comes so I can at least have aesc in my chaldea before I quit

#

my goat

digital marlin
#

I never understood the point of doing stuff like that

runic ether
#

isnt this saber /hj

slow raft
digital marlin
#

It's always was

old galleon
#

no it's pipe bomb gremlin literal wife

Everyone is a Saber face

same with zzz but only 2 on-rate ones so

i got like 18 wu zetian but not a single erice in the last summer banner

glossy latch
#

Btw is Limbus' story basically an anthology without a real overarching plot?

mortal iron
slow raft
#

limbus is one overarching plot

runic ether
mortal iron
#

not that i wasnt trying to get kaveh

long tree
glossy latch
#

Damn

slow raft
#

(there is no required reading)

runic ether
#

the required reading is dante's inferno

long tree
#

Yeah its mainly just a mean

glossy latch
#

Unironically I wish a gacha would just do its story as a anthology

#

It'd fit the medium better

long tree
#

Limbus takes a lot from other literature but you dont actually need to have read said literature

long tree
runic ether
#

the writing quality in limbus is very very much higher than in other gachas on average

long tree
#

Its not just verbose that text do be fire

runic ether
#

i think what i appreciate about it is that it can be funny when it needs to

#

but the overall story tone is just baseline quite brutal

slow raft
runic ether
#

so the moments of joy feel more earned

long tree
#

Did someone say regularly scheduled don quixote goof break

glossy latch
#

My issue with an overarching story besides the question of quality is

runic ether
#

don so far has still had some rather serious moments too

glossy latch
#

There will never be a real ending

runic ether

i really did like that moment she had with sinclair in canto 3

though of course, beach volleyball was fucking hilarious

Very funny don quixote very cool

#

Yes

#

It just got there quicker than intended

#

By like

#

A chapter or two

slow raft
long tree
#

I think they very much saw the writing on the wall and transitioned to a shorter version of the story but it is indeed still complete

#

It also makes Euden basically god

#

unrelated, Gigguk is apparently going to get sponsored to make a "Guide to Honkai Star Rail" video

mortal iron
#

will he make it more overcomplicated and make it a hellscape to talk about where to start

summer hornet
#

I don't think he wants to deal with another fandom calling for his head any more than we want him to make another video like that lol

slow raft
#

i imagine hes gonna make a joke about the amount of lore thats buried in various documents or sidemodes and exaggerate how importantz it is to understand the story

#

that aside i hoenstly dont have gigguk as a gaming youtuber in my head

summer hornet
#

He's not, he's an AniTuber who mainly does seasonal anime reviews and quarterly video essays talking about stuff like Frieren and Arcane

slow raft
#

yeah idt hes ever done a video on a non visual novel game before

summer hornet
#

Non visual novel *or gacha game

#

or JRPG I guess

#

But yeah lol

#

It's funny, because Trash Taste has Joey(TheAnimeMan) who's honestly just gone full-blown classic anime hipster/elitist, Connor(CDawgVA) who initially skipped the majority of stories in the games he played until they brought ProZD on and he read the book to him... and Gigguk

mortal iron
#

animeman is an elitist who has somehow watched not that many anime

#

that clip of him saying he thinks a ghibli movie was mid then later in his stream admit he didnt see the movie

runic ether
#

they likely could have saved money by having cy yu (alejandro saab) do this

#

he was already gonna be there

summer hornet
#

CyYu doesn't seem to have paid much attention to Fate, which is probably part of the draw

slow raft
summer hornet
#

I think Gigguk isn't beyond saving, tbf, but yeah

#

As time's gone on Connor has probably aged the most gracefully

summer hornet
#

Yeah

#

they could have gotten Molly Zhang, who is actively indoctrinating Phainon's VA on Fate together with the help of Emily (shameless plug)

#

but maybe it would've been too tight/awkward a schedule for her

old galleon
#

from a sea of butterflies into a sea of worms

runic ether
#

idt molly is as deep into hsr lore as alejandro

summer hornet
#

....also true lol

#

I don't think she's touched the Scepters update to Simulated Universe at all

runic ether
#

neither has cy yu lol but he actively cares about the lore

summer hornet
#

Ja

#

The recent stream where she (and other VAs) watched the 3.4 livestream really gives the impression that she checked out of Amphoreus in favor of ZZZ

#

far from the only person to do so, of course

long tree
#

Got his weapon before him lmao

mortal iron
#

why is the persona gacha so big

slow raft
wispy goblet
#

she is, of course, the greatest villain

runic ether
#

and she will not be powercrept

#

whereas u would ask seele va to talk about seele's replacement

#

zenless also has a great ability to keep using every single old character in new shit all the time. the fuckers are everywhere for any reason

#

u get a new event, turn the corner, and suddenly billy's there

#

random event around the city and bam, turns out, anton is on the case

#

we went fishing with qingyi once and all of ben, ellen, rina, lycaon, soukaku, and miyabi all showed up to hang out too

#

u are never more than 15 ft away from a playable character in a random setting in zzz (and this is great)

summer hornet
#

That sounds nice

mortal iron
runic ether

its a meme but billy actually did drive us to the outer ring

summer hornet
runic ether
#

the new character from 2.1, alice, used to be friends with lucy

#

which now fully completes the circle

#

new eridu's largest polycule has once again increased in size

summer hornet
#

you love to see it

slow raft
#

I do like gachas with smaller main casts since it lets you flesh out the characters that are there more easily
(<- hypocrite whos main gacha for years was arknights)

summer hornet
#

I was gonna say lmao

mortal iron
#

How small we talking

summer hornet
# summer hornet

FGO bringing every random assortment of characters they can think of for every event

#

Arknights finding obscure hilarious ways to have different operators meet in various side stories

slow raft
mortal iron
#

Followup, what if the cast rotates

#

Does that still count or not

#

Like genshin with the regions

summer hornet
runic ether
#

genshin is a good example as to how it can end up being bad bc the main cast in natlan is pretty shit

slow raft
#

I think a small core cast with new side characters that are kinda in focus for each arc is a good structure
Arknights kinda does that for events

slow raft
summer hornet
#

Arknights and Limbus really are a flat circle, huh

slow raft
#

Well they do have an upcoming collab

#

And wheels did an animation for a them both

mortal iron
#

But yeah, like being honest the last cast in genshin where I liked most of the cast was sumeru

runic ether
#

they have had 8 patches to figure it out and the best the story got was 5.2, a limited time event 2 patches ago, and then mondstat

#

skirk is fine too ig

runic ether
mortal iron
#

Fontaine cast is weird coz

#

I like them individually I don't care for them as a cast

runic ether
#

it was great overall but there was just... not much of them

mortal iron
#

If that makes sense?

runic ether
#

it does

#

the issue imo, is that a lot of the other mainstays dont really show up

#

until later

#

like chiori, chevreuse

mortal iron
#

Like neuv and furina are great
I like wrio, navia and clorinde

When they're together I feel like they're just co workers

#

They have no chemistry besides maybe with 1 other character

long tree
#

It also doesnt help a lot of the later patch characters as well are usually just kinda there

runic ether
#

clorinde was done dirty in the archon quest

#

but they really did shove her into everything ever with navia

#

if navia = clorinde

mortal iron
#

Clorinde feels like she shouldve been more important

#

But like she doesn't do anything

#

Navia does do alot

long tree
#

Like once the x.2 patch passes you toss a coin to see if the character is relevant or like... photoshoped into the group photo after the fact

mortal iron
#

Clorinde feels like an accessory to navia than like a duo

runic ether
#

sumeru, we met most of the ppl from the get-go

#

and they became mainstays even if they didnt release until later

mortal iron
#

And the whole story they have them be part of a group heavily

runic ether
#

in fontaine, the only character tangentially involved in the story, was clorinde

#

that released later

mortal iron
#

In fontaine and natlan we're like separated alot of the times and focus with 1 or 2 characters

long tree
#

And once you hit x.6 the coin flip is a d4 and one of the face is some random person from an entirely different country who is mentioned like 3 times by npcs optionally

runic ether
#

chiori, xianyun, clorinde, chevreuse, emilie

#

all of them are just like

#

oops

#

not present in the story despite being technically big shots and major players in fontaine

mortal iron
#

Natlan also was paced like ass
We just straight up got a filler patch in the middle of the climax

runic ether
#

i'll give this to natlan

#

it started off solidly

mortal iron
#

Like that story mode in 5.2 was like 20 minutes long

runic ether
#

and then 5.1 was really well done

#

this is why 5.2 and 5.3 felt like total shit

#

and then nothing else happened afterwards

mortal iron
#

5.2 is so bad coz it killed all momentum

runic ether
#

again

#

crazy that

#

we are 7 patches in (8 technically)

#

and the most lore relevant shit we've gotten happened in 5.2, and in mondstat

mortal iron
#

I feel like natlan is so aimless

runic ether
#

like genshin needs to be so fr

mortal iron
#

How is the story implications from sumeru feels like more relevant than natlan

runic ether
#

keep spoilers low btw regi is still not through midlan yet icant

long tree
#

Crazy how i initially like mualani and then she was just everywhere and I was like damn can u go away please you are not good enough material to be talking this much

mortal iron
#

I think the worst region still is inazuma

runic ether
#

also a war arc

#

coincidence?

long tree
runic ether
#

probably ultimately

mortal iron
#

Inazuma is just bad in a whole different way

long tree
#

And that mf released before the region was out

runic ether
#

inazuma gets a pass cus of covid

#

natlan?

mortal iron
#

Also...inazuma kinda doesn't matter lowkey

runic ether
#

no excuse

mortal iron
#

Like what is the implications or story progress there

runic ether
#

inazuma matters in exactly the reason being that ei is lore relevant to genshin (even still)

long tree
#

Inazuma also gets a pass from me because it gave kazuha aura and hype moments and confirmed hes hoyoverse gay

runic ether
#

and ei's 2nd story quest

rapid bough
runic ether
#

matters to this day

mortal iron
#

I feel like the fatui would've gotten the gnosis regardless

runic ether
#

but otherwise, the entirety of inazuma could have been an email

mortal iron
#

Yeah it's so strange

#

They course corrected hard with sumeru

runic ether
#

thats the covid constraint though

slow raft
#

Fade to black
entirety of inazuma explained
Peak storytelling

mortal iron
#

Sumeru, very happy with that regional patch

runic ether
#

going from boring to 2 peak patch cycles in a row was quite the turnabout

long tree
#

Oh my God I completely forgot inazuma had itto

mortal iron
#

Fontaine was cool, then it just kinda felt very samey

long tree
#

I am sorry oni painted abs ryugi I will never forget you again

mortal iron
#

Doesn't help the region is mostly underwater so it all felt the same

runic ether
#

itto walked

mortal iron
#

Because you're stuck with underwater mechanics

long tree
#

Honestly i liked fontaines underwater stuff

#

But that's cause I had nevu so my ass was zooming

mortal iron
#

Im not saying its bad but it makes exploring feel samey

runic ether
#

so that komano could run

mortal iron
#

Because every character plays the same underwater

long tree
#

One day they will let itto have boobs

runic ether
#

its not happening

mortal iron
#

Like Ms hina?

long tree
#

General of the rebellion against the raiden shogun

mortal iron
#

So funny gorou is voiced by yuma tsukimo

runic ether
#

yae will always be iconic for force feminizing the enemy general

long tree
#

Most well known thing about him is that he got rule 63'd by a fox who's fucking his enemy

mortal iron
summer hornet
mortal iron
#

Also you know whats so weird with kazuha

summer hornet
#

Completing Skirk's quest gave me trauma flashbacks to the Raiden Shogun training though

mortal iron
#

He just...isnt in the inazuma story for most of it

long tree
mortal iron
#

Like where is he

#

Why wasn't kazuha part of like thoma's escape

long tree
summer hornet
#

oh right lmao

runic ether
#

hm i guess it doesnt spoil much rn

summer hornet
#

Yeah they said you get extra Primogems if you complete it this patch

#

A guy I met at the theater for Heaven's Feel 2 (long story) said I should do it this patch too

#

It didn't really talk about anything past Fontaine at all

runic ether
#

have u even met skirk in the actual story ur on

summer hornet
#

She shows up with the Narwhal, remember? Just yeets it and Childe through the portal, drops random foreshadowing about ||The Third Descender being Horcruxed into Gnosises||, and leaves

runic ether
#

ah okay so u did finish up to that point

long tree
#

Sometimes though they have to

summer hornet
#

Valid, FGO's done some of the same

runic ether
#

they do that frequently enough but some of the more casual quests are not gated

#

but some are and its notable

#

ie: kaeya's

#

needs u to do caribert

#

or else u get no big context

#

and the reveal makes a lot more sense

summer hornet
#

Very fair

#

The Scaramouche redemption arc would've been extra confusing if I hadn't done Raiden and Kazuha's story quests

runic ether
#

and the shame is that scara gets soo much development in events

mortal iron
#

Hat guy

runic ether
#

don sombrero

#

nahida was on some shit when she signed him up with that name

summer hornet
#

Was seriously so confusing playing last year's summer event while still being in like.. the Chasm or something

mortal iron
#

Genshin is allergic to put good characterisation in the quests rather than time locked events

summer hornet
#

I kept second guessing every second Wanderer was on screen

runic ether
#

i can imagine

mortal iron
#

What did you nickname your scaradouchr

#

Mines is dietxiao

#

Coz i love slander

runic ether
#

that said, funnily enough, scaramouche hits harder if you had been an event andy since the beginning

#

cus his 1st appearance is a limited time event with mona and fischl

#

back in the 1.x patch

mortal iron
#

Yeah would be great if they stopped doing that

#

Making the events introduce a character

runic ether
#

durin will be fun

mortal iron
#

And then like the story and quests bending backwards to be introduction to them again

summer hornet
#

Wind of Death

#

an edgy name for an edgy kid

runic ether
#

idm if they would do that if they had those events permanent

slow raft
#

Temporary events having important lore is always gigacringe

runic ether
#

we are now 2 for 2 on raiden getting relevant characterization in 2 limited events

mortal iron
#

Like scaramouche appearance in inazuma is like, for a new player like "okay so who's this guy, why should i care aaaand hes gone"
For day 1 Andys it wouldve been "WOAAAH"

runic ether
#

gl for anyone who didnt ply them

summer hornet
slow raft
#

Im so collection pilled i actually want the limbus company april fools to be permanently viewable even if they are non canon and literally not important at all

summer hornet
#

Arknights has been going out of its way to make every single event permanent after its second rerun or so (aside from collabs)

#

rather respectable

mortal iron
runic ether
#

honestly it used to be a thing mostly for summer and lantern rites

#

but now its like

#

every event

mortal iron
#

Especially when the event minigames is horrid

#

Like it has been for a while

runic ether
#

citlali gave us lore about mare jivari in an event in 5.3

#

like wtf

summer hornet
#

Technically a point in HSR's favor

mortal iron
summer hornet
#

Making most of the big events permanent side stories

runic ether
#

idm them

mortal iron
#

Like dawg, don't drop massive lore stuff but also make me not enjoy the game for 5 minutes a day with a minigame that's not genshin

summer hornet
#

I do appreciate the variety of events and minigames Genshin has

runic ether
#

we should always get more combat events in genshin

summer hornet
#

Like they seem to have a variant of everything

mortal iron
#

Genshin just isnt good at balancing combat end game

#

That theatre shit is foul

runic ether
#

theater is probably the easiest game mode

mortal iron
#

You either have a very clean run or take 10 hours suffering

runic ether
#

i dont get the complaints tbh

#

just get the right buffs and look at the boss lineup

mortal iron
#

The issue is the rng of what units you get

runic ether
#

it shouldnt be a big deal though

#

unless u dont have them built well

mortal iron
#

It kinda is for people who don't have the roster to back it up

runic ether
#

which like

#

fair

#

but the roster issue is something u can work on

mortal iron
#

I dunno, you need like alot of characters and some of the elements of the patch are not favorable

#

Like alot of people are screwed on geo and cryo

runic ether
#

the geo/cryo patch was really easy for me bc my cryos are solidly built but i do just naturally have a lot cryos

#

and geos huh im only missing itto now

mortal iron
#

Cryo is just very undersupportrd for a long ass time

#

Like they just did not want to touch cryo for years for some reason

runic ether
#

but the buffs for cryo in the theater were really strong

mortal iron
#

But like most people don't have cryo guys

summer hornet
#

I think I heard someone say Wrio is one of the best selling Genshin banners of all time?

mortal iron
#

I thought that was neuv

runic ether
#

that patch cycle as a whole probably

#

not just wrio

#

cus neuv came with

mortal iron
#

Although they debuted in the same patch

summer hornet
#

oh okay

#

nvm lol

runic ether

  • redeem codes 83PCW6M7KB and ED638PF8ED

big agree

#

they could've cut eve/lily/adam entirely and this would've fit right in as a standalone nikke event

#

and a pretty damn good one at that

#

maybe that weakens its status as a collab event, but eve/lily/adam definitely didn't make anything worse, they were fine. just the best aspects were the nikke universe lore + privaty character development

#

it's probably just the reality that the best collab events are ones that actually fit into their games and don't devolve into meaningless "LOOK AT THESE CHARACTERS YOU LIKE" showcases

tbh the best collab character in the event was raven despite her being completely disconnected from the main 3 lol
