for content creators

[ornate mantle]

What denotes a content creator.

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

[tough burrow]

create content

[ornate mantle]

No you goober.

[steep scarab]

One who makes youtube videos

[wintry sonnet]

make some shit on stream or youtube

[warm bluff]

so you're famous?

[tough burrow]

stream or youtube, ye

[ornate mantle]

Time for me to aim for content creator and artist.

[wintry sonnet]

sometimes both if you like arguing with Universal over a 3 second clip

[tough burrow]

there's also cosplayer role

do all 3 at the same time

[warm bluff]

i wish i could be a cosplayer

too bad i'm a guy

[errant burrow]

I mean

[wintry sonnet]

Dont see how that's a problem

[errant burrow]

that doesn't stop you

[warm bluff]

but i wont be cute

so no point

[regal reef]

learn makeup

get a wig

[wintry sonnet]

some guy cosplayers are hotters than girl cosplayers

[ornate mantle]

You could be a Shitkikan.

[wintry sonnet]

it's a dangerous game

[warm bluff]

[regal reef]

I knew a lot of excellent trap cosplayers

[tough burrow]

weren't you one?

[regal reef]

(and was a trap cosplayer myself)

[ornate mantle]

Be a trap Shikikan.

[regal reef]

yes.

[warm bluff]

i wouldn't be a cute trap though

so still no point

[regal reef]

makeup tutorials

[stuck copper]

@regal reef can you do albacore cosplay at next AX

[regal reef]

it's just pricey

[warm bluff]

oh nvm i'm too poor for that

[regal reef]

since guys crossplaying needs a lot more makeup than girls

[wintry sonnet]

why is it people only ask to cosplay as shipgirls

why's nobody asking to cosplay as a manjuu

smh

[stuck copper]

[warm bluff]

that's a good idea

hide my entire body to be cute

[stuck copper]

well im already yellow so i just need a beak or smth

[warm bluff]

[tough burrow]

cosplay as rig

[wintry sonnet]

cosplay as gem

[regal reef]

cosplay as meowficer

non-SR meowficer

[stuck copper]

cosplay as generic enemy ship

[steep scarab]

Imagine, restart cosplaying

[warm bluff]

i'm already generic so i'm 1/3rd of the way there

[tough burrow]

nah

[errant burrow]

Getting my Purifier cosplay ready rn

[warm bluff]

[stuck copper]

TUMMY

[tough burrow]

cosplaying would require me to actually do something productive with my life
can't have any of that

[wintry sonnet]

or you can always turn it up to 11

and do bodypainting instead

[tough burrow]

[wintry sonnet]

which is actually allowed in twitch tos cuz reasons

[warm bluff]

[steep scarab]

i wanna post an operator

[errant burrow]

See, you're trying to understand the reasoning behind Twitch TOS. There's the issue

[wintry sonnet]

I mean I get it

if you got tiddies, you're safe from harm

if you don't, tough shit

[warm bluff]

so basically just be fat

[stuck copper]

wut operator

[tough burrow]

oh
good thing I'm fat, so technically I have them

[warm bluff]

[tough burrow]

[stuck copper]

just dont be fat smh

[wintry sonnet]

just make sure you dont decide to stream elsewhere

or else twitch will stream pr0n on your channel

[stuck copper]

[prime frigate]

someone should cosplay as the fat eagle form enty's xmas skin

or cosplay as meowficer

[wintry sonnet]

we don't use the word fat around here

it's "body positive"

[prime frigate]

okay

[wintry sonnet]

reeeeeee

[prime frigate]

that BIG o chicken

xd

[ornate mantle]

Honestly.

Cosplaying as a gem sounds clever, lol.

I like that a lot, LMAO.

@wintry sonnet : Excuse me body positive sounds offensive. We need terms that don't refer to the body at all.

[warm bluff]

akashi cosplay + gem cosplay

[prime frigate]

CHUNGUS chikaaan

[wintry sonnet]

how bout "A person of extraordinary capacity"

[stuck copper]

holy crap

[ornate mantle]

Capacity can offend people who aren't as bulky.

[stuck copper]

AL just murdered my battery

[wintry sonnet]

actually that does sound like something they'd come up with

eeringly so

[ornate mantle]

No fucking doubt, lmao.

[wintry sonnet]

Like how they wanna change convict or felon to "A justice-involved person"

[ornate mantle]

Wait what.

That can't be real.

No way.

[errant burrow]

justice-involved person
Is that real?

[ornate mantle]

Yeah definitely don't wanna offend any murderers out in the audience.

[wintry sonnet]

yep, that's how they get you, the moment you think something's so stupid you can't possibly make this shit up

[regal reef]

Let's just move away from this topic?

[ornate mantle]

We spent a hot minute on it.

But what a day.

I'm almost done with w/ W12

[warm bluff]

[wintry sonnet]

actually, you could cosplay as a techbox too

and if someone opens you up, there's a purple crane inside

[ornate mantle]

Even better... a half gold half purple tech box.

And meet up with an akashi cosplayer.

Give em a brush.

[wintry sonnet]

you know, actually

it's a wasted opportunity that the swag shop wasn't handled by someone cosplaying as shiranui

[errant burrow]

Well Take is skill lvl 3 now. Now let's see if I can actually get literally any other SR cat

[ornate mantle]

Oh man that would have been awesome to see at AX.

[dense wing]

hey syanda how does you wife put cosplay clothing/accessories away

[wintry sonnet]

propably takes it off and puts it away, like a regular person

[dense wing]

I was thinking about putting them on a hanger
putting the wig and acessories in a bag
popping a hole in the bag and putting it on the same hanger as the outfit

takes so much space in my drawer

[regal reef]

Anything we wanna reuse goes into folded, vacuum-packed ziplocs in a set

Anything we want to ditch gets sold as "used cosplay"

[stuck copper]

[dense wing]

vacuum packed

interesting

[warm bluff]

how long does artist application take?

[regal reef]

Never heard of it?

[dense wing]

well I also have ziploc bags in my idea

whenever staff get to the dm

[ornate mantle]

Space Bags

[dense wing]

of course I have ive just never heard of it for clothing

though frilly clothing makes sense

that shit takes up so much space

[regal reef]

just seal it tight down after folding it properly

[stuck copper]

Hello there, I am evil, you can trust me

[regal reef]

Who?

[dense wing]

he is Evil

[errant burrow]

you can trust himm

[wintry sonnet]

no he isn't

[regal reef]

Never heard of him.

[wintry sonnet]

Evil's not here right now

[regal reef]

[ornate mantle]

But the real question.

Is can we trust him.

[wintry sonnet]

I mean he already lied about impersonating someone

so propably not

[ornate mantle]

OH>

MAN.

THE ART.

THE BEST SCENE.

[dense wing]

[ornate mantle]

JUST FLOWED INTO MY BRAIN.

It's that moment.

Of inspiration.

When you envision a masterpiece.

[wintry sonnet]

can't be

you envisioned Yuubari oath skin?

[ornate mantle]

Maybe.

[stuck copper]

hm

Ahh so happy. Just found Yumekui Merry again and now I can finish watching it

[ornate mantle]

Oh man.

I haven't seen that in forever.

[stuck copper]

I watched like 2/3 of it before it was removed from Hulu and then I couldn’t find it anywhere. I just saw that it’s on HiDive now. Time to start watching it again and this time finish it lol

[ornate mantle]

Ahhhh Vestal almost 120.

[stuck copper]

poggers

[ornate mantle]

@stuck copper: woaow, I actually don't think I finished it either.

I got through like 5 episodes.

Back when it was first airing.

[wintry sonnet]

oof

mine's only 114 still

[stuck copper]

mines like 100 or smth

If youve got VRV, you can watch it thru there on HiDive, or if HiDive has there own service, you can probably catch it there

[wintry sonnet]

but it's fine, cause I maxed out the important number already

[stuck copper]

I know back then I had trouble finding it on anything else, although that was a few years ago

[ornate mantle]

Good shit

[stuck copper]

[wintry sonnet]

would've had that skin already if they stopped flooding me with the limited shit already

[ornate mantle]

It's one of my faves.

Mainly because it' vestal.

[wintry sonnet]

Oscar's skill is fun

[warm bluff]

cute!

[stuck copper]

i would hurt myself way more often if it meant getting treated by Vestal

[ornate mantle]

[wintry sonnet]

good thing I've diabetes

24/7 full time care will never end

[ornate mantle]

You got the diabetus.

[wintry sonnet]

[warm bluff]

[wintry sonnet]

then again she's so sweet she's gonna make it worse

[stuck copper]

[ornate mantle]

@warm bluff : What were getting from Tabao?

[stuck copper]

[warm bluff]

nothing, just looking at that nick daki again

[ornate mantle]

Thought so.

[stuck copper]

just buy it 4head

[warm bluff]

i'm poor and i'm scared the package wont be discreet enough

[dense wing]

im sure it would be fine

lul

I feel you

[ornate mantle]

@steep scarab : has bought from Taobao

[dense wing]

I was embarrassed my package said COSPLAY all over it.

[ornate mantle]

They know the packaging.

[dense wing]

its different per seller tho

its like amazon

you get it from amazon as a seller, the package is different

[regal reef]

get yer own mailboxes

[dense wing]

like I bought shoes for my cosplay on amazon

and it came in a destroyed shoebox.

a taped up shoebox

[ornate mantle]

Yeah but everything comes in a box i'm sure.

[dense wing]

that was smashed

[warm bluff]

i do have my own mailbox, but large packages get sent to my apartment's office thingy

[ornate mantle]

It's not gonna be like "THERE'S A DAKI IN HERE, LOL"

[stuck copper]

bet

[regal reef]

as in

y'all don't have those automated mail locker things?

[warm bluff]

nope, it's handled by people working there

[regal reef]

how...quaint

[warm bluff]

also it's alabama

[stuck copper]

sweet home alabama

[regal reef]

can't imagine living there

[ornate mantle]

I can.

[stuck copper]

@warm bluff you live in Alabama?

[warm bluff]

i do now lol

[stuck copper]

[warm bluff]

same city as @errant burrow apparently

[dense wing]

yeah!!

its so cool!!

[wintry sonnet]

hold up, "now"?

[stuck copper]

whoa

[warm bluff]

as in i've only been here 3 months

[wintry sonnet]

oh

thought it was less

would've been funny if you moved there during the last event

[dense wing]

do you enjoy your city of huntsomethingville?

huntsville?

[warm bluff]

well it's alabama so

[stuck copper]

city of Townsville

[errant burrow]

We are one of the most advancing cities in the state so we got that going for us

[warm bluff]

ya it's not terrible, being able to make alabama jokes is great though

[stuck copper]

advanced cities as in

actually nvm i wont make that joke

[dense wing]

I think of alabama and think of the education crisis and feel bad

[warm bluff]

oh apparently the guy from the youtube channel smarter every day lives here!

[dense wing]

[warm bluff]

i just learned that today at work too

[dense wing]

idk who that lives but THATS COOL!!

[stuck copper]

thats kinda cool

[errant burrow]

We ain't dumb down here, Kawa. We're true genious

[warm bluff]

ya i'm a genus

[stuck copper]

sad!

[dense wing]

stay tuned ™

[wintry sonnet]

I mean, I didnt expect two miracles at once

it's already a miracle zuikaku got a skin

[warm bluff]

2.5%=0%

[errant burrow]

So it's just Prince and Bache being added. Pretty odd for just two of them. But at least they're being added permanently apparently

[wintry sonnet]

is it really odd

seems par for course that we only get like 1-2 ships added into build at a time

[errant burrow]

It's usually 3 or more

Such as w/ the loli ships and the CNY event

[regal reef]

I guess

[stuck copper]

bruh moment

[regal reef]

given what's in the pipeline, i'm not surprised only two are added

[stuck copper]

lila dont make me come over there

[wintry sonnet]

I mean last time we got a new ship added it was Centaur and she was alone

[stuck copper]

what did i do?

[wintry sonnet]

before that we had what, 2 ships added to light

[regal reef]

when's the jp anniv stream? 9/9?

[stuck copper]

yes

[wintry sonnet]

september 14 was the last time

[ornate mantle]

Alrighty, 12-3 done and 3*ed.

Does 12-4 need anything special.

[errant burrow]

Well, true enough w/ those events. They just do whichever they want

[ornate mantle]

Does Choukai vomit out damage like it's not tomrrow.

[regal reef]

i'm almost expecting 5-6 new ships coming if they're adding pasta

[warm bluff]

She's tanky

[wintry sonnet]

dont envy people who are still stuck in event build

[ornate mantle]

^

Being stuck in event build is not fun.

[wintry sonnet]

an elite cruiser going into perma pool without rate up is gonna be absolute ebola

anything for that matter will

[ornate mantle]

Pretty much.

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

Do you guys think Altakao and Alterprise are gonna Retrofits.

[wintry sonnet]

at best they might be skins

[ornate mantle]

Did they already mention how they'll handle them?

[wintry sonnet]

at worst they'll be held to ransom in construction

[warm bluff]

they'll be rewards for completing the story

[stuck copper]

they'll be forever on the sideline

[wintry sonnet]

what story

[warm bluff]

exactly

[wintry sonnet]

Feelsrateupman

[errant burrow]

Just like me rolling for Centaur

[wintry sonnet]

you know what would be nice, if once every 3 months they took a chill, made a week or two of no new build fiestas and just ran the wishing well for that duration

[stuck copper]

Stop it aquan

Don't dig our own frustration and resentment

[wintry sonnet]

que

I'm serious tho, wishing well on paper wasn't a bad idea

it's just it was done in the shittiest possible way

during 2 active limited builds, with a bucnha ships you can't get outside of build not even being available

[stuck copper]

I don't have anything against your opinions

It is just you are reviving what we are bitter about AL

[wintry sonnet]

if they made it a regular, quarterly thing with a week or two of chill, then that'd actually be a nice addition

new players get to try and snipe stuff they want, people who are missing like couple ships can try and snipe the things they're missing, people who got everything get to stock up on supplies

everyone wins

[stuck copper]

Wishing well? To the hell with that

It was a nice idea, but poorly implemented

[wintry sonnet]

I mean I'll take anything at this point that'll even give me a 0.00001% increase

[ornate mantle]

That's what he just said, LOL.

[wintry sonnet]

at getting the fucking u-81 and i-26 at this point

1000 cubes going strong now

[ornate mantle]

Yeah Wishing well would be nice if it was like... a monthly event.

Wait really? you have 1k cubes?

oh.

[wintry sonnet]

I would have 1k cubes

[ornate mantle]

Spent on going for U-81.

[wintry sonnet]

If I didnt have to spend them trying just to roll special

[ornate mantle]

Yeah I got ya, haha/

[wintry sonnet]

because again, wishing well not a bad idea

but EN's wishing well was ebola

[ornate mantle]

I actually made use of it.

And I got what i was missing, lol.

Only thing I didn't like was that subs were missing and it was tied at the same time as event period.

Because event was killing me with Bisko.

[wintry sonnet]

not just bisko

lest we forget they did the loli limited event as well

with zeppy and co

all 3 going on at once

[warm bluff]

[wintry sonnet]

or was it cleve and lena

I dunno, some lolis were going on at the time

there's so many lolified ships now I lost count on what happened when

actually...

isn't AL Crosswave releasing tomorrow

wouldn't it make sense to have Shimakaze release on the same day

talk about missed opportunity

[stuck copper]

now my folder is perfect

2 open spots for Nekoparaiten and Arknights

[solar fjord]

not as bad as AL

[warm bluff]

So basically no need to worry about 100% collection

[ornate mantle]

Inaba is F2P and has just has ungodly luck.

Well until now.

[stuck copper]

wut

[solar fjord]

wut your wut

[ornate mantle]

What is that.

[stuck copper]

what kind of music

like composing it or

oh uh

i dont, really

i dont want to sort through 450 songs that ill never care about order anyways

[solar fjord]

i just like songs i like on spotify and have a mess

[stuck copper]

google music

you mean

[steep scarab]

https://aceship.github.io/AN-EN-Tags/img/characters/char_340_shwaz_1.png

[stuck copper]

google play music

[solar fjord]

only subbed to google play music for YT music

[ornate mantle]

I'm now at 18k coins.

[solar fjord]

oof

[dense wing]

skip every other gacha as f2p?

[wintry sonnet]

jeez, I hate when companies do this

even worse when it's done with the paid currency

[stuck copper]

what

paid gacha rolls?

[wintry sonnet]

not specifically gacha rolls

[dense wing]

what am I looking at

[wintry sonnet]

just this whole "We priced this item to be just above one of the packs so you have to buy something on top of it"

[stuck copper]

oh

so what everyone does basically

[wintry sonnet]

it's the same principle here, you're being put just behind enough that if you dont throw money, you're boned

and that if I understood correctly

is just for one 10roll

[steep scarab]

ak

[stuck copper]

[steep scarab]

pay to accelerate you progress

[wintry sonnet]

sounds more like pay to maybe accelerate your progress

since it's a gacha game, so you'll propably likely not even get the rate up stuff

not if you have to snipe it in one 10roll

[steep scarab]

yea

alot of the 5* ones are decent too

and considering there are only a couple of 6 stars ~~which you can see here https://aceship.github.io/AN-EN-Tags/akhrchars.html~~

[wintry sonnet]

it might sound decent but then the context matters

for example you might think a guaranteed 4* in fgo every 10roll is decent

until you realise you have a higher chance of rolling a shitty CE than a servant

[steep scarab]

[wintry sonnet]

that said so far, I think I'm gonna give Arknights a pass

doesn't sound like it's gonna be particularly fun for f2p unless you go out of your way not to give a shit about most of the characters

and if I'm gonna spend money on a game, it's only gonna be under the condition that the game will feel rewarding enough without paying for it

the second it goes from "I want to give money" to "I have to give money" I'm no longer interested

[solar fjord]

Cn player posted a review to reddit last week, said AN is F2P friendly

[dense wing]

its AK

arknights server calls itself AK
azur lane: its an!

girls frontline server calls itself GF
everyone else not in the server: GFL!

[stuck copper]

[verbal obsidian]

Idk anything about these cats, are bishimaru and justice good ur’s ?

[wintry sonnet]

they are

[stuck copper]

huh

[verbal obsidian]

Good thing i didnt want to think

[solar fjord]

Who cares what the short version is

[ornate mantle]

Holy shit that cats analysis makes me laugh too much.

“SG: Bishamaru but for POOR people.”

Yoshomarus also gives me a fucking hoot, LOL

[stuck copper]

When you're rolling for 6-stars, guaranteed 5-stars don't really matter. You should see it as a means of doubling the amount of rolls you get.

I heard arknights

So I am here

Honestly

Cal

6*

Is literally unnecessary in arknights

I play the game using 4* only

6* are literally overkill in that game

Unneeded by all stretches of the word

no u

I do like how he said though

"Under 6k"

I am saying if you're rolling for a specific 6-star, that guaranteed 5-star isn't going to cut it anyway.

You'll want more rolls

Tbf

The chance of getting a specific anything

Is always low

As if anyone was fine with le tem when they want essex. It's kinda like that.

That's like complaining that you got lower rarity

When lower rarity is more likely to drop

Which is kind of the whole point of gacha in the first place

I don't see how that proves me wrong. You'll want more rolls regardless.

Which would mean you whale no matter what

Which btw

Applies to all gacha's not AL

People seem to forget

Depending on how much they charge, I'll definitely get the monthly ticket

[ornate mantle]

Whaling for Gacha is such a waste of money.

[stuck copper]

AL is EXTREMELY generous

In the first place

[ornate mantle]

How do people forget that.

[stuck copper]

Most gacha's aren't that kind

[ornate mantle]

I'd say AL has the winning formula.

[stuck copper]

See how it goes. If it sucks, drop it.

I mean just for the record

[ornate mantle]

But if the Monthly card is like... $10 or more I'm not getting.

[stuck copper]

They literally gave out a ten tix yesterday

Monthly card

Let me check

I'll do conversion

Chinese monthly card should be cheap. Doesn't mean they won't raise it for us tho.

[ornate mantle]

Sure.

[stuck copper]

It's about £3.42

In my currency

For the record

AL's is about double that

[ornate mantle]

So about $3 in AK

[stuck copper]

Minus 1 buck google discount, if you get one

Oh wait

Not at 3

Would have to be at least 4

[ornate mantle]

I'm imagining about $4 for the monthly card.

[stuck copper]

So tldr

It's cheaper

[ornate mantle]

Yeah.

[stuck copper]

The reason why I know

[ornate mantle]

Okay I might bite.

[stuck copper]

Because chinese for me

Is literally 10x my currency

So I just divide by 10

[ornate mantle]

Is AK coming this month?

[stuck copper]

Winter

In terms of EN

And don't forget either guys

It's still ver 0.75.2

Which is full on beta

its gonna be like a Christmas present

[ornate mantle]

Hell yeah.

[stuck copper]

I mean like

The price of currency

Before didn't have guaranteed 10 5*

So I imagine things will change

[ornate mantle]

I can't wait to see why they do with the game.

[stuck copper]

Anni mode for example too had the cap go from 1200 per week

Of the whale currency

To 1675

And THEN

You can also build whale currency too

If you didn't know that

Or rather I should reword this

"Gacha currency"

As there's 2 currencies

bro...

The whale currency btw

Can be used for multiple things but

People tend to use it for skins

Obviously

I mean if you need anything explaining

I can explain it

[ornate mantle]

Well I'd whale on skins if it came down to anything.

So it makes sense.

[ornate mantle]

Whaling is shit and your shit for whaling.

[dense wing]

your

[stuck copper]

your suck

you are the suck

[dense wing]

you own suck

[stuck copper]

I have

Probably around 90 pages of AP textbook reading to do before Friday

Do you think I can do it

not if you waste your time on here

there were no patch notes this time, right? how long do you think it's going to take? 4 hours?

[dense wing]

patch notes are usually released 16 hours or so before arent they

or longer?

im not good at this whole memory thing

[stuck copper]

oh, wait...

it's not today

man, can't they just stick to one day, instead of hopping between wed and thu?

[dense wing]

I dont pay attention to maint patterns

but oddly enough when maint was on a friday, it rubbed me in the wrong way and it was really obvious

like a sore thumb

[stuck copper]

they are usually on thursdays, but they decided to do them on wednesdays as well, for some reason

[steep scarab]

[dense wing]

im not complaining because it means I have more time to converse with staff about bugs

friday maint was concerning

"what if theres a bug that really should be fixed but staff arent online so we dont have a direct way of contacting them "

[stuck copper]

well, it's not a big deal. at least i get to buy more cats. it just throws me off when things are inconsistent.

i like my patterns

friday maint is just bad. that's why nobody does it

"here's a patch. i'm off to having my weekend. byeeee."

customer support be like "what? wait!"

[ornate mantle]

You is the suck

[dense wing]

customer support doesnt work weekends tho

so they also were off to their weekend

bug assistants get some of that

[stuck copper]

i don't know who it is, but someone is usually available, just in case things go horribly wrong, and they probably don't like it

Man I love getting avrora

You get to flex on people with gold

[flat palm]

Ive gotten 6 sr cats in total right

Whos this

I s2g if thats my 4th lime

I'll lose my shit

[stuck copper]

oscar, i think

[dense wing]

oscar

[stuck copper]

not sure though

there are a few with 10-hour timers

[flat palm]

Oh antenna

That one looks kinda bad

Only accuracy

[stuck copper]

it's a BB cat though, isn't it? they can use acc

just like eva is usually bad, but if it's on a cruiser cat, it's actually pretty good

[ornate mantle]

@flat palm : I’ve gotten 5/8 of the cats... I’d like a lime eventually.

[stuck copper]

3 rares, 5 elites. that's not too bad.

is it just me or does my 120 Hood have 4 mgm

I counted 8 bullets

mgm is the amount of times they fire

bullets are from the gun

yes and she's got a hood gun on her

I should see 6

so if you have a quad, you get 4 bullets

huh?

yeah exactly

can you cap that?

I'll try

xDD

I'm idiot

she's got a JB gun

not hood gun

there you go

ya it just has a wierd pattern

it's not 4-4-4

it's like 2-2-2-2

[regal reef]

because the french quad turret is basically two turrets welded together

[stuck copper]

I see

in-game mail: "How has Mikasa been doing?"

EN:

[solar fjord]

who

[stuck copper]

Is it just me

that new chat bubble is great. way easier to read.

Or is the BG bugged on Juno skin

Yep

It doesn't show lol

[dense wing]

#known-bugs

[stuck copper]

Oh good

Just making sure

[dense wing]

very IMPORTANT channel lol

[stuck copper]

That I'm not losing my mind

[solar fjord]

[steep scarab]

Think you need 3 dupes from lvl 2 idk

Forgot

2 or 3

[flat palm]

Thats lame

[stuck copper]

it's 3

one dupe gets you lvl2. three more gets you lvl3

[flat palm]

I guess i need 2 more lime then

[steep scarab]

Ah ye 3

[flat palm]

Tfw shoukaku didnt get a twin skin, this is so sad

Alexa play despacito

[steep scarab]

Oh ye

Once you’re committed to that cat, no turning back now on feeding dupes especiqlly for ssrs

[flat palm]

Well my third lime had a rainbow skill

So i have two sr cats with rainbow skill now

In my mob fleet

My 3 sr cats, and antenna incoming

[carmine coyote]

[stuck copper]

That

Looks like new belfast + shoukaku yes

ye

Belfast finally getting a dress

And Skk finally getting a skin

Can tell though because of the red eyeliner

zoom and enhance that shit

[long perch]

[stuck copper]

That's without a doubt Skk

[regal reef]

ENHANCE

[stuck copper]

That's 100% shoukek

The eyeliner + hair style

that's clearly belfast 2

No doubt in my mind

Lol

[tough burrow]

2 new skins on Bel

[stuck copper]

Lol

Seriously though

As long as the rest of them look great

Then these two will be awesome

belfast skin

Skk too

dont care bout skk

What matters though peach

They didn't let people down at least

yeah

[flat palm]

Question is, are those two tied to the collab their advertising

[stuck copper]

Now the "they didn't get skins meme" will finally die

[flat palm]

Which in that case we wont get them

[stuck copper]

You honestly think

An akihabara collab

Something EN can't get to

[flat palm]

Never know tbh

[stuck copper]

Will tie skins like that behind them

skins make them mony

[flat palm]

Im super hyped for skk skin regardless

One of my fav ships

[stuck copper]

Exactly

Weird part is

Have you seen the image of belfast + edinburgh?

now we can start the pity skins meme

Lol

[flat palm]

Need to lvl mine more

[stuck copper]

This one

Because belfast's seems similar

[flat palm]

If this collab is same as lawson and Niconico itd suck

:l

[stuck copper]

belfast collar

Yeah they both have the collar

Also Aki

[flat palm]

Hi

[stuck copper]

I see you have good taste in IJN CV's

[flat palm]

[stuck copper]

Like Fox sisters are nice yes

But Cranes need that love too

[flat palm]

But for real, how do we know it isnt just another jp tied collab, theres been plenty of those

I married both cranes

Taihou and foxes

[stuck copper]

Usually though

Collab stuff

Is centered around collab

That belfast skin for example is clearly a party skin

[flat palm]

Could be jp 2 year anniv

Or smth

[stuck copper]

Tbf they did say though

That skins weren't locked like

Retrofits / botes are

I mean I'm not bothered if it gets delayed

As long as we do get them

[flat palm]

Im usually under the opinion that skins shouldnt be delayed unless a very good reason not to f example a rerun

But

[stuck copper]

Well yeah I meant more

[flat palm]

I guess en doesnt have enough whales

[stuck copper]

As long as they do come then fine

[flat palm]

For them to do that

[stuck copper]

whats the tea behind belfast collar

Not entirely sure

It's not the best quality image

But yeah Aki

As long as like

It's not collab limited

Then it's fine really

[flat palm]

What confuses me is they have existing skins on that photo

Like the dunkerque one

[stuck copper]

Yeah and even some more recent ones

god damn it i want to start training some other ships skills

i hate this mechanic

[tough burrow]

But for real, how do we know it isnt just another jp tied collab, theres been plenty of those
weren't there like
whole 2

[flat palm]

Lawson, nico and i think there was 1 more?

Maybe im wrong

[tough burrow]

there's was a cafe one

and we had those

[flat palm]

Oh right

[stuck copper]

Yeah if they didn't

Imagine how pissed people would be

Sure we don't get the character ones but like

[flat palm]

Imagine if en didnt get a new belfast skin, the maid lovers would riot

[stuck copper]

Those are collab characters and don't do anything impressive anyway

[flat palm]

Remember Sirius, then when it comes to headmaid

[stuck copper]

Lol

[flat palm]

I could live without bel since i have her l2d but god damn that skk skin looks adorable from just that little pic alone

[tough burrow]

and we do get skins from anniversaries
it's something I said before cos people kinda missing it - anniversary content is not server locked

[stuck copper]

[tough burrow]

we got skins from CN anni during Scherzo

we got KR anni skins

[stuck copper]

Yeah which technically it we talk anni wise

[flat palm]

What was the kr ones

[stuck copper]

We shouldn't have if the above was false

[tough burrow]

Sara and Lusty

[flat palm]

Oh right

Hmm yeah i guess

I hope u right

[stuck copper]

Besides

[steep scarab]

[stuck copper]

Think about this logically

[steep scarab]

skins

[stuck copper]

People have been wanting Zkk and Skk skins since when

Imagine not giving people the option to buy them to make more dosh

[flat palm]

wallet screaming in pain

[stuck copper]

It wouldn't make much sense even from a business standpoint

[solar fjord]

Heck the cranes, give me a Washington skin

[flat palm]

I already prepared gems for lulu and zkk skins tomorrow

[stuck copper]

Honestly Linky

[flat palm]

[stuck copper]

I'm still disappointed

From the Georgia skin debacle

[solar fjord]

same

Baited myself

[stuck copper]

[tough burrow]

[stuck copper]

You know though

When they give NC a skin

They gotta make it a bunny girl

I'll be so disappointed if they don't

[solar fjord]

Do the meme for en

[tough burrow]

they almost certainly won't and you know it

[flat palm]

How many of you were dissapointed in new enty skin

[stuck copper]

I know that's what makes it sad

[flat palm]

I honestly hate it

[stuck copper]

I actually wasn't

I loved it

[tough burrow]

I like Enty skin

[stuck copper]

The love line is what won me over

i didnt have any expectations to begin with, so...

[tough burrow]

I'm yet to see anyone explain why they hate Enty and Cleve skin
I honestly don't get it

[solar fjord]

Enty needs to ride the bike

[stuck copper]

Me neither Res

I have both

Love them both

i dont like the art style on the cleve one

[tough burrow]

I get not liking it
But i see a lot of people hating it
And literally noone said why

[solar fjord]

I like em

[tough burrow]

Just
"It's bad"
bad how?

bad bad

[solar fjord]

But nothing beats CNY enty

[stuck copper]

Fun fact

I actually use them more than my other skins

[flat palm]

It just feels super american catered to me, so it does nothing for me personally

[stuck copper]

"American catered"

They're american botes

[tough burrow]

Ye
it's like

[stuck copper]

[tough burrow]

American botes
getting skin
on EN anni
which is heavily NA centered

[flat palm]

I just dont like the outfit personally

[stuck copper]

Yeah like

"EN Anni"

But really it's NA technically

So like

NA stuff

Makes sense

[flat palm]

Im just saying why i dont like the skin personally

[tough burrow]

Well, it's global, but devs said before that overwhelming majority of players are from NA which is expected

[flat palm]

I dont like the american theme

[stuck copper]

Well I mean most games that are global

Are still fundamentally hosted in USA

[flat palm]

I prefer cute dresses etc

[stuck copper]

So USA stuff just makes sense

[tough burrow]

nah, Aki, I get just not liking it

It's fine

[stuck copper]

The issue is most people like all things

"THIS SUCKS"

Yeah but why does it suck?

"I DON'T KNOW"

i think what bothers me the most is that it often feels like all you have to do is put the american flag on something to make it american.

Great insight

[solar fjord]

Well not like HMAS boats are gonna get skins over USS boats

[tough burrow]

i think what bothers me the most is that it often feels like all you have to do is put the american flag on something to make it american.
Enty doesn't have an american flag in her skin
Cleve does, but so does her default

[solar fjord]

HMS for jp anni

[stuck copper]

general statement

I will be honest in a sense though Cal

The thing is

America is a very patriotic country

americans dont like america

[tough burrow]

also a lot of americans are proud of their flag

[stuck copper]

Hence why

The flag is a big symbol

[flat palm]

Nothing can top enty qi pao for me

[stuck copper]

the boomers are patriotic but the people who play al are the opposite lol

[tough burrow]

her christmas skin is objectively the best skin in the game tho

[stuck copper]

Lol

[flat palm]

I say that but i was an idiot and didnt buy the qipao for god knows what reason

[stuck copper]

You did what now Aki?

i want belfast qipao to come back wtf

How could you skip it lol

i will never understand patriotism

Tbf though Cal

Different countries

Different views

Same reason why CN censors stuff on their server

And Alabama had that incident too

[flat palm]

I was like "eh i never use enty tbh" then i started using her a lot in ch 11 and 12

[stuck copper]

patrotism is what keeps countries alive tho

its why you become one in the first place

i disagree, but i'm not going to elaborate

[verbal obsidian]

[stuck copper]

i like design like alabama

[verbal obsidian]

I cant access crunchyroll in japan

[stuck copper]

Oh not saying I dislike it

But the reason she was censored is cause

Well black tattoos

So as you know

Sensitive topic for some

[flat palm]

@verbal obsidian did you buy any cool weeb shit

[stuck copper]

It's one of those things really Cal

I suppose that's why countries exist

reason i won't elaborate, btw, is because it's politics, and it's against the rules.

Differing views and all that

Personally though

I love anything if it's cute enough

i find it really dumb when people run around with our flag as well

yet another 8 hour skill book

I love to run around with a flag

Then I can whack people with it

im sick of training alabama by now

Honestly Peach

I've done Alabama

But now I'm doing 2 subs + Essex

And then I got another sub after that too

i hav london alabama and kagerou

The thing is

Most of mine are red skills

< Is on a lack of red books

i wanna do little bel, taihou, essex, yuubari edinburgh, saint louis hyuuga ...

the list goes on and on and on

fuck...

anything is better than training essex right now

Essex is like Amagi

which i won't

She's great once you're done

But annoying to get there

maya too

at least amagi is good by herself

dont have tirpitz or bismarck at max either

or sandy

or washington

I maxed Sandy long time ago

or z46

Same for Wash

victorious

and avrora as well

do you see my pain

skill books all day every day and i get nowhere

I experience this pain a lot

i fucking hate it

i feel you have to run certain comps to make essex worth it, which is something i don't want to do right now.

yuudachi

kawakaze

ark royal

Do you?

centaur

I've seen Essex thrown in everything

baltim,ore

hiryuu and juneau

god...

this time next year there will be 20 more ships i bet

if you dont bring 4 eagles, you might as well just skip leveling her skill

[solar fjord]

Like saying that for amagi don't need to bring 4 ijn

[stuck copper]

I mean the thing about Eagles

Is most of them are self reliant

Also like Linky said

Amagi suffers from the exact same thing

cant we just make sorties level up skill xp a little as well

something
