HSR Trash Can

[vivid moon]

Nah that's fine

I just didn't know if their numbers were from his lc too

Or if they used a f2p one

So I can try and match them as best I can

Because that's absurd and I am so glad I skipped the last 4 banners

And got gepard early when I guaranteed Jing Yuan

Just hoping I actually get lucky because e2 would be just peachy

70 pity and 150(?) tickets, I'll at least have him guaranteed

Still gotta do stuff to get more tickets though, like leveling and quests and su/moc

[maiden escarp]

Kafka better, sorry

https://youtu.be/9K-fxVNpA54

[vivid moon]

Kafka can suck it

Dragon man kicks ass

She's uggy

Uggy lady

She doesn't even have pants smh

[maiden escarp]

What the hell

[vivid moon]

I just don't think she's pretty 😔

I just don't know what it is about her

I like most of her hair

Her eyes are interesting but funny looking

Maybe it's her outfit

Idk

[frozen lintel]

guys nowadays want to be stepped on

by a dommy mommy

[maiden escarp]

Not the case

I think she is very pretty

I do agree she should have had pants though

[frozen lintel]

dang got censored

LOL

[vivid moon]

I am not a guy nor do I want to be stepped on so that makes her double uggy

[pulsar junco]

what are these hot takes so early in the morning

[maiden escarp]

That's what I'm saying

[daring raft]

the most based HSR take ever

[vivid moon]

Lol

IT'S SO JOEVER FOR ME

ALSO SAM

[vivid moon]

silver wolf and blade in suits

[daring raft]

it's alright

but it's really the end art that sells it for me by the end

[vivid moon]

yess

although i really like the style they used for the judges

giving them animal heads and the way they protray their silhouettes so roughly

[wraith token]

Btw

Who the fuck is Sam

Why does everyone know that that's Sam

I have no clue who Sam is

[analog pollen]

it's the last known stellaron hunter

everyone mentions him in their dialogue

if you checked their databank stories and/or talked to them in the express you'd have seen his name pop up a bunch of times

kafka can even mention him in the character quest depending on what answers you get

[maiden escarp]

He's also a Gundam which is awesome

[open lotus]

or a makai knight if you’re a garo shill like that one particular guy who used to be a fiend in #・anime

[maiden escarp]

[daring raft]

@analog pollen how’d you like the recent main story and companion quest btw

[analog pollen]

Main story was weridly paced and suffered from tell dont show at times

Kafka was alright for the lore drops alone, but the quest itself was really short

[daring raft]

yeah I feel like it was doing ok up until Dan Heng went to the island.

still need to see Kafka CQ tho

[maiden escarp]

The ||yangqing|| fight in the Kafka cq was annoying as hell

[daring raft]

the punk was that hard?

[vivid moon]

poor baby :c

[analog pollen]

have you done the 7 cycranes secret quest kc

[daring raft]

https://vxtwitter.com/annaatram/status/1690731980160110592?s=46

my fav HSR pairing is this but only when Kafka gets gaslit by Himeko

[maiden escarp]

For me specifically, yeah? Idk why

I blame fire mc and Natasha somehow

[vivid moon]

no

[analog pollen]

if so, rip my jades

[maiden escarp]

Fu xuan is next update

Jing Liu should be 1.4

[vivid moon]

fu xuan is with dragon man

she's second half

jing liu will be part of 1.4

[lament bramble]

so still back to back, just cross versions

[vivid moon]

most likely first half from the looks of it

[lament bramble]

rip

[vivid moon]

yeah lmao

[lament bramble]

also, man

gotta clear space for Fontaine

[maiden escarp]

So much hoyo content coming out

[lament bramble]

God I need to get around to upgrading my computer 😂

not enough room for all this shit

[maiden escarp]

Surely Fontaine isn't over 30 gigs

[lament bramble]

at least my phone can hold it

[vivid moon]

my laptop is quickly running out of space, i'll have to delete some games

i have 200gb left and that's before the files are unzipped

[analog pollen]

smh

[vivid moon]

[frozen lintel]

Using ting makes it easier too

[open lotus]

yeah there’s been some tc stuff about ting

I’m just not sure if there’s an objective case for one being better than the other (yk vs ting) but I think either should work

[nimble condor]

dan hung stronk

glad i got him garanteed

but ye he eats skill points like crazy

[nimble condor]

the herta shop one or a new event one?

[maiden escarp]

Herta shop one

[nimble condor]

[vivid moon]

OOOOOOH she's cute

[nimble condor]

Oh it her

It the girl

The one on the light cone

[vivid moon]

the dead girl

[nimble condor]

Wait she ded?

[vivid moon]

wait

no i'm thinking of a different lightcone sorry

was thinking of the lc with jingliu holding up the girl we meet during the quest who's part of the commission and has the like red and blue outfit with red color to the back of her hair

[barren star]

she's the one on the funny burn preservation cone

Trend of the Universal Market

[nimble condor]

Guess she's gonna be a hunt with burn mecanix

[analog pollen]

thats not jingliu that's an unreleased character

also wait is that how the piggies actually look with their mouths open
cuz thats horrifying

[vivid moon]

i guess you're right, they just look SUPER similar to me

from the gist of their designs to the colors

[analog pollen]

once you see the 3d models it's easier to tell

[vivid moon]

ah okay

when is the next update gonna happen so i can get dragon man

[analog pollen]

like a couple weeks?

[maiden escarp]

SHE HAS A TROTTER OOOO

[vivid moon]

WOO

[analog pollen]

shes basically jing yuan but hunt

enjoy

[vivid moon]

WOOOOOOO

[maiden escarp]

Daniel's theme isn't in the phonograph

[nimble condor]

oh now that i see it isn't the girl she's holding the robot girl

[analog pollen]

yes

[vivid moon]

Yeah

[vivid moon]

YEAH IM SO MAD

[nimble condor]

She's gonna be or Veliona

she looks like Veliona

she better be playable

[analog pollen]

no one here looks at leaks huh

how much do you wanna know

[vivid moon]

About imbibitor lunae's sound disc?

[analog pollen]

about upcoming characters

[pulsar junco]

i saw the new chara with the trotter

i want the trotter

[nimble condor]

trotter is extra

[vivid moon]

Oh kol

[analog pollen]

trotter is the pet gimmick

[nimble condor]

nono

i mean you pay extra for it

fork over them credits

[analog pollen]

could youy imagine if they made you do that

have to pull 2 charas to make them playable

[vivid moon]

LOL

[nimble condor]

You buy him in game

With credits

On her character quest

[analog pollen]

reverse childe

[vivid moon]

Ooh

Mini seelie

But trotter

[pulsar junco]

where is mini trotter

Diting is also cute

but trotter!

[wraith token]

[maiden escarp]

Good Kafka relic

[wraith token]

nah i fed it to some other relic

its in Blade's relic set

[vivid moon]

SHE HAS A DITING

I LOVE HER

[daring raft]

i still rememeber when she accidentally leaked her splash art on twitter lmao

[vivid moon]

LOL she did??

[analog pollen]

that does sound like something ama would do

[daring raft]

no new main story for 1.3?

only CQs?

[wraith token]

there is

[daring raft]

what’s it titled?

[wraith token]

here

you didnt watch the livestream?

[daring raft]

nope

thanks

[lament bramble]

Tbf, the trailer was really weird with how it framed things

Havent watched the livestream, only the trailer, and if I didnt already know she was coming from leaks, I wouldnt have known Fu Xuan was even getting a banner

I couldve guessed Dan was from him being the front of the poster, but the end of the trailer summary only shows the 4 star kiddo as the "new character" of the version

And doesnt really mention anything about there being new main story

Going to have to watch the actual livestream to figure out wtf's actually in the new version lol

[vivid moon]

^

I just read the quick summary in srs

But it sounds like the trailer was funky

[daring raft]

good funky or weird funky

[lament bramble]

Weird funky

Doesnt really do a good job of showing whats in the update (aside from the simulated universe stuff)

[daring raft]

it was quite frankly easily missable lol

with Genshin you can easily tell some shit is going down

even with the more light hearted stuff

but the only hint of any continuation was like

an obituary of some sort

[lament bramble]

Which could just as easily be a CQ

[daring raft]

ye lol

honestly it’s not even just this trailer

a good amount of HSR’s promo material just feels ‘weird’ in general if you’re used to how Genshin portrays them

[lament bramble]

I do like their equivalent of Collected Miscellany

[daring raft]

with the Owl guy?

[lament bramble]

Yee

[daring raft]

I wasnt really a fan until Jing Yuan’s demo trailer thingy

[lament bramble]

Feels more engaging for it to be a conversation than just a monologue. Plus it lets various in-game characters comment on new characters

[daring raft]

cuz they invited Fu Xuan over like an interview talk show

[lament bramble]

Like Himeko shit talking on Kafka in her thing

[daring raft]

adds some extra fun

but stuff like Myriad Celestia just feels notably and weirdly timed

[lament bramble]

Yee, the miscellany things and the demos have been pretty solid imo.
The rest of the marketing feels "off" to me as well

[daring raft]

only Jing Yuan’s seems like it’s was placed well decently with where we’re at in the story

[daring raft]

the HSR demo trailers are kinda hit or miss. Seele’s was a 😴 fest.
Jing Yuan got it damn well right for me.

[lament bramble]

Kafka's was really good at least 👀

[daring raft]

it was “okayge”

[lament bramble]

https://tenor.com/view/rudy-rudilous-kafka-hsr-kafka-honkai-kafka-kafka-stellaron-hunter-gif-8256460705763798138

Nah, it was hype

The kabedon and the hallway bit especially

[daring raft]

I just prefer it when demos take the time actually showcase a nicely brief narrative that adds a bit more to the character past surface level stuff and flashy effects really

Jing Yuan’s board game with Yanqing I really vibed with

[lament bramble]

Tbh, I feel like that's more on Kafka's release timing than anything with the demo itself

[daring raft]

stuff like Cyno’s demo trailer was 💤

but stuff like Alhaitham’s demo for example:

[lament bramble]

She just came out too early to reveal anything too major in her quest/demo

[daring raft]

probs

[lament bramble]

Honestly surprised she's out this early in the story

[daring raft]

can’t say i’m a big fan of the direction Xianzhou is going rn tbh

Phantyllia seems like someone that would’ve fit better in but later into the story but they opted to heavily sideline Blade and Kafka for what we got

[lament bramble]

Kinda surprised how little time Blade got in the story

Considering how much of the "hype" marketing he was

[daring raft]

I was literally having a debate over this with a fellow in another server

but the moment he tried to derail by comparing Blade to Scaramouche I was like

“Aight no.”

[lament bramble]

Scara literally got an half an AQ arc and a dedicated Interlude lol

Tho imo the interlude should have been a SQ

[daring raft]

Shenhe be like:

[lament bramble]

Shenhe's at least felt bigger than just her

Cause there was reintroducing the Jade Palace

Scara's literally only affected him

[daring raft]

dude even had literal events teasing him up. And the Mikage Furnace was a WQ that ultimately tied into him.

Blade’s just too ‘young’ and unfleshed out rn. (To my dismay)

[daring raft]

sorta yeah. But allow me to jest with:

+the Fatui

[nimble condor]

She got a gun

And not only that she got the cats and dogs

[frozen lintel]

every comment ive seen is people begging to be crushed by her thighs

[nimble condor]

they aint that big

also

according to the leakers this is not 5* March but simply a skin

so Daniel gets a whole new 5*

March gets a crown

[frozen lintel]

lmao

[analog pollen]

theres another character thats probably gonna be 5star march

[nimble condor]

ya got the deets?

[analog pollen]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7Y1GcPVU3U

she shows up in this trailer which was sorta an early teaser for star rail (tho it might be retconned now cuz the details dont fully line up)

https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1fZ7BjmlL22ezZ-dflsb-AMUgDN_ybgydK0Xu8AgO5fM/edit?pli=1

then if you scroll at the bottom you can see she has in game models and animations

assuming she didnt just get scrapped she should be a new form for march

same eyes and has the express badge on her clothes

[nimble condor]

do

do you mean carol

you dont mean carol right

[analog pollen]

no

keep watching

[nimble condor]

that's just early march design

[analog pollen]

it's not

they already showed the current model for march at this point

[nimble condor]

reburn 2 is a mess

and should be ignored

reburn 2 is not real

[analog pollen]

then why does she has in game models?

[nimble condor]

because early stuff

that hoyo clearly didn't think too hard about

[analog pollen]

I dont think they'd animate stuff if it was early

[nimble condor]

unless we get more recent leaks ill disregard anything related to reburn 2

cause it's clear even hoyo realizes reburn 2 was a mistake

plus

considering what they did for daniel they better give March a bit more than just new clothes

unlike Paimon i actually like March

[analog pollen]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCxq-jMMsAc

this was posted 2 days later and already has the current march design

it's too small a window between them to say it's just a rework

[nimble condor]

i shall keep my stance of ignoring reburn 2

anyway ive found something weird on the file you sent

why the fuck's talulah here

Hoyo stealing from Arknights now?

[analog pollen]

p sure most of the names in that sections are not final

one of them is just dracula

which yea lol

[nimble condor]

dracula also says

so we can safely assume they forgor

She'll find out the moment she's on our team

[nimble condor]

I'll get her and force her to murder all of them

[vivid moon]

Never go on a trotter hunt with her there

NOOOOO

[nimble condor]

I'll have numby murder how own kind

She'll watch in horror as I force her to throw numby at his own kind

[daring raft]

but i guess i can just save for blade after

im klee

[daring raft]

how’d you like the museum one

[nimble condor]

i wanted to throw the museum off a cliff

and next patch we getting another one

only good thing from this event is letting me play with blade and kafka

i love blade and hate kafka

[vivid moon]

Hate KAFKA

Don't worry me too

She did less than my unbuilt Jing Yuan, it's kinda funny

[nimble condor]

I hate her gameplay

[vivid moon]

Ye

[nimble condor]

It's just so not satisfying

Meanwhile bladie is the goat

[vivid moon]

I like blade and his play style but I'm too hooked on dragon man so I'll get blade on his rerun

i've come to learn i'm apparently bottom 0.51% on star rail 4* warps

and here i thought i did pretty good

and somehow luckier than almost 80% of people on 5* even though my only rate up character was a guarantee

i wonder how many of them just lost 50/50 then never returned to the game because idk how else that can happen LOL

[maiden escarp]

How do you find that

[vivid moon]

Star rail station site

It has a wish calculator like paimon.moe

https://starrailstation.com/en/warp#global

[maiden escarp]

That's too much work

[vivid moon]

It's literally opening up warps in-game, opening power shell, copy & paste

Hit enter, paste link in site, hit button

Takes like 10 seconds

[maiden escarp]

Idk how to do powershell so it's too much work

[analog pollen]

you dont really need to know anything

just open up software copy paste hit enter

[deft delta]

Too much work

Also idk how I’m top 0.2% for 4 star warps

I only ever did 330 pulls on the rate up character warp

[nimble condor]

Idk mine but

I've literally got seele silver wolf Jing yuan and luocha

And only lost 50/50 this banner to Himeko

hoping to win 50/50s

[nimble condor]

Damn you loaded

I have garanteed but I only game 100 or so pulls

So I don't think I can go for his weapon

[vivid moon]

i don't have guaranteed, this is just what i've saved since jing

though, i do need to get the rest of the chests in xianzhou

[nimble condor]

You have garanteed

[vivid moon]

i'm missing like 12 of them

[nimble condor]

Because you have more than 180

[vivid moon]

you know what i mean

i'm on 50/50

because jing was my last 5*

[nimble condor]

Meanwhile I got garanteed cause I did a 10 roll on kafka and got himeko

[vivid moon]

oo

[nimble condor]

Still regret not getting blade but I'll save for his rerun

[vivid moon]

Same

Except the regret part

I don't regret it at all

But I will definitely get him on his rerun

[nimble condor]

Dragon man stole yer heart so much you can't even look at bladie

I don't even acknowledge bladie

He got like 5 seconds of screentime and hmph'd more than Xiao

How dare you

Ok but he's hotter than xiao

[vivid moon]

Ehhhhhhhhhhh

Tbf I wouldn't call either of them "hot"

Blade looks interesting and Xiao is cool

[nimble condor]

I look at Xiao and only see an emo kid

[vivid moon]

I look at Xiao and see a young dude who needs help and appreciation and acceptance

I look at blade and go "cool jacket"

And nothing else

Because I know literally nothing about him

[nimble condor]

Kek

[vivid moon]

He's just

The dude

He scares dan

[nimble condor]

Blade backstory is connected to the 5 of the luofu

[vivid moon]

The what

I'll be honest I've been mostly skimming/skipping HSR stuff

I know the most bare bones of overarching plot to the game

[nimble condor]

Dan feng
Jingliu
Jing yuan
Blade
And an unknown foxian beauty

They were all friends and fought together

[vivid moon]

Ohh

[nimble condor]

The foxian is dead

[vivid moon]

Damn, I thought it was just that one weird dude

[nimble condor]

Dan feng got caught trying to pass out the vidiadara immortality thingy or something and got force reincarnated

[vivid moon]

The lady?

[nimble condor]

Blade and jingliu were affected by mara

[nimble condor]

That's the theory yes he tried to revive the fox

[vivid moon]

Nono

Is Dan Feng the lady

Medic lady

Who tried giving us illegal drugs

[nimble condor]

Dan feng is Dan heng

[vivid moon]

And turned out to be the leader of the organization

[nimble condor]

Before reincarnation

[vivid moon]

Oh

Oh wait right

LOL

[nimble condor]

Anyway blade is immortal and crazy and so is jingliu I think

[vivid moon]

I remember now about being confused whenever hearing the names because they were so close

[nimble condor]

Jingliu was the one that made blade become a murderer

And now he wants to kill Dan and Jing yuan I think

[vivid moon]

And Jing is just

[nimble condor]

Jing is the only not crazy of the 5

[vivid moon]

There

[nimble condor]

He is still a long lived species so he's like

Old af

But otherwise he's just there

[vivid moon]

Yeah but he's just there

[nimble condor]

Jing sq when

[vivid moon]

Anyway I'm gonna go to bed, I'm exhausted

Thank you for the quick rundown

[nimble condor]

Bye bye

GNight

[vivid moon]

I'll forget it by the time I wake up

Ninight

[nimble condor]

Kek

[vivid moon]

[nimble condor]

Maybe dragon boy quest will expand that lore

[vivid moon]

Maybe!

[daring raft]

thanks

[daring raft]

does Wriothesley’s design look derivative of Sampo to you?

[nimble condor]

Not even close

His early leak drawings did

But they were very far off

https://tenor.com/view/fontaine-wriothesely-wrio-wriothesely-genshin-genshin-gif-13101370415727278398

That ain't sampo

[daring raft]

that’s his chill cousin

Genshin Sampo died before he made it to beta

[nimble condor]

Sampo wishes he had rizzly as a cousin

[analog pollen]

he still reminds me of sampo

but it's the same company with the same anime artstyle so youre bound to get same face syndrome

the new girl reminds me of yanfei too

[daring raft]

Sampo and Rizzly do not have the same face at all lol

you can make a case for the hair style tho

[analog pollen]

I didnt literally mean the face

but theres no word for same design syndrome

[daring raft]

it’s why i’d rather say Rizzly is just Sampo’s cousin cuz the apple don’t fall far from the tree

[analog pollen]

kaveh also looks like grown up traveler

[daring raft]

but the more I see Charlotte the less I think of Yanfei like I used to, and the more I ‘see’ Pompom lol.

[analog pollen]

theres plenty of stuff like this if you waste your time on it

To me Kaveh looks less like Aether, and more like ‘Lumine’s brother’ than Aether does. If that makes sense.

[analog pollen]

sure

[pulsar junco]

I see you also possess good taste

[open lotus]

the eyes are more than enough for me to deem them similar

also a good case for kafka’s banner not being as high is because of people saving since launch

oh wait I just saw the caption lmao

but yeah CN hyped up juan
and silverwolf’s eidolons are really cracked

[pulsar junco]

But Seele

[open lotus]

honeymoon phase moment

maybe they were like “first char banner always gonna be op (venti moment)” so I must whale seele

[pulsar junco]

And true, the Kafka saving since launch is real, I was one of them before I got swayed by Jing Yuan and Luocha, which made me broke

[open lotus]

rip

[pulsar junco]

I am happy with my choices tho

[open lotus]

luocha is a really good pull though, I wanted him

but yanqing came instead

he’s probably the only dude I tried going for so far

[pulsar junco]

Jing Yuan is also good, he is carrying me most of the time

but Luocha replaced my Bailu

[open lotus]

yaah don’t listen to the juan slander he gets the job done

also LL + daisuke ono va if you play in jp

[pulsar junco]

I play in EN, but I appreciate him being the JP VA

i'm lazy to read convos

[open lotus]

do you auto play the dialogue

[pulsar junco]

yes

[open lotus]

and multitask

man I just speedrun lol

[pulsar junco]

[open lotus]

reading subs in anime prepared me for this moment

[pulsar junco]

I skip over stuff that is hella boring to me tho

[open lotus]

yeah I think
clara and kafka’s companion quests are the only ones I remember where I didn’t skip

cuz I cared about my dialogue selection since they can change the outcome lol

[maiden escarp]

Kafka

[open lotus]

thats what I really like about hsr quests its that ur choices can matter

[maiden escarp]

I contributed to her total spending

[open lotus]

bless

Kafka mains rise up

[maiden escarp]

150 is nothing for e2 of my queen

And her lightcone but that's irrelevant

[open lotus]

I wanted to take the kc pill and pull dhil tho but she came early so I converted

[maiden escarp]

She's future proofed so she's a good investment

Daniel will get power crept

[open lotus]

her being able to enable dot teams are welcomed

can’t wait to see “midbibitor lunae” posting frfr

[maiden escarp]

I mean he's the best dps in the game as of now but

Give it a year or two

[open lotus]

to be fair a year is a long time

[maiden escarp]

True

But Kafka can literally only get better

[open lotus]

you’d probably already benefitted so much with him by then

that is also

[vivid moon]

GASP

FOR SHAME

[open lotus]

[pulsar junco]

when is the cooler Daniel releasing?

[frozen lintel]

in like

3 days

[vivid moon]

[nimble condor]

the question is when are you gonna pull for daniel the Ill

[pulsar junco]

i am not

i'm wating for space diluc

[nimble condor]

hes not real

pull for dragon daniel

[vivid moon]

Space diluc?

[nimble condor]

idk who geo means

we already have Luca so im guessing that's not it

[vivid moon]

Probably

[open lotus]

https://vxtwitter.com/dimbreath/status/1695543065593688339?t=uqx5NZoT-xExPiZ_7zusRg&s=19

she is literally kc, she got the diting squad

[vivid moon]

Hehehe

[nimble condor]

Kc whatcha doing in honkai

diting bomber squad

[vivid moon]

One of them disappeared because I accidentally did the quest

But he'll forever be in my heart

[daring raft]

I just learned that if you remove Blade huge dmg numbers you couldn’t tell he was a wind character

https://youtu.be/1k-_1VO1zzU?si=zm1gs0IauRAw6Wcr

@vivid moon

[vivid moon]

can only dream of the same thing happening to a genshin character one day

blue fire or SOMETHING pls

not all fire is red

depending on the elements thrown into it, it can also be green, black, and other colors

[daring raft]

check out Topaz’s animations

she looks like an imaginary character

there’s literally no ||fire except for her ray gun||

[vivid moon]

[daring raft]

Herta prolly has the worst case of this

none of her attacks look like ice at all

her ultimate looks like a giant crystal/mineral

than a giant block of ice

[vivid moon]

why's that the "worst case"?

wouldn't it be "best case" when talking about characters who don't look like their element lol

[wraith token]

this is really making me wanna know what Nibelgung’s deal is in Genshin.

[pulsar junco]

||Argenti||

wait

leeks

[vivid moon]

oooh

space diluc looks pretty

[pulsar junco]

i know
he looks like a shoujo manga love interest

[deft delta]

Does Guinaifen follow the Aeon of Elation?

Aha

Is she a member of the tavern

The masked fools

[maiden escarp]

Aha aha aha aha

[analog pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/gol-d-roger-one-piece-laugh-gif-21028191

[nimble condor]

Oh damn

Even more reasons that they are doing genshin dirty and giving everything to hsr

You can choose

[analog pollen]

couldnt you choose a liyue 4star during the lantern rite events?

[pulsar junco]

yes, twice now we got that chance

or 3 times idk

it's a staple every LR we get a free Liyue 4* of our choosing

[nimble condor]

Only liyue and only on the liyue festival

[daring raft]

and HSR isn’t even a year old yet

Meanwhile this ticket is also only for a fewer select 4*s

Stand by me let you choose one out of 6 4*s too back in 2021

[daring raft]

3 times ye

[daring raft]

yeah no that’s where I draw the damn line

[nimble condor]

Who's slandering my Yoiyoi

[vivid moon]

Someone named Daniel

GASP

DANIEL

NOOOOO

[pulsar junco]

Numby stonks

||https://youtu.be/Q7_vkgAMM3s?si=gi3vQsVYFmV6lrok||

[nimble condor]

numby walks with her

im dead

fuiohawf0qwe

WHEN SHE RUNS HE FUCKING SLIDES

[vivid moon]

i love it so much

it's so fucking cute

if we never get a diting pet, i can at least live on knowing i can get her

[nimble condor]

so it appears he gameplay revolves around follow up attacks

[vivid moon]

yeee

[nimble condor]

she's hunt ye

it also seems like her ult is a buff maybe

so like she buffs herself then throws numby with increasingly stronger force at enemies

great

[barren star]

ngl something about this really reminds me of either Sailor Moon or W.I.T.C.H

[daring raft]

with hair like that? i’m thinking Winx Club

[barren star]

i probably just saw the roses and my brain went to tuxedo mask tbh

[open lotus]

I remember when I pulled yoimiya as my cope hu tao

[vivid moon]

"cope hu tao"

now she's her own god

[open lotus]

even with thundering pulse and like 70:260 cratio she felt underwhelming to me

[vivid moon]

to each their own

she's the easiest and strongest of my DPS units

[open lotus]

this was during inazuma patch

[vivid moon]

oh

[open lotus]

idk how good she’s gotten

I quit during chasm

never touched the game since

[vivid moon]

she hasn't technically gotten any buffs from the game itself, just some units that help her out

[open lotus]

yoi enablers

sou sou

[vivid moon]

haii

[open lotus]

guinaifen will be the cooler daniel tho !!

just till you wait

[vivid moon]

okay but i love dragon man

i will love them both

IS IT DONE YET

IS DRAGON MAN HERE

I JUST GOT HOME FROM WORK GONNA MAKE DINNER

[maiden escarp]

No

[open lotus]

25-27 hours from now

let her cook

[frozen lintel]

you got uh

26 more hours lol

[vivid moon]

Oh okay

[frozen lintel]

u can enjoy the fontaine aq in the meantime

[vivid moon]

[vivid moon]

Finished it

[frozen lintel]

lmao

[vivid moon]

I have the world quests now

[frozen lintel]

both chapters?

[vivid moon]

Yeah

[frozen lintel]

damn hope u liked it

[vivid moon]

Did them last night because they were dope

I didddd

I actually really enjoy fontaine so far

And the fact we didn't just walk into the country and immediately be branded a convict

[frozen lintel]

mhm

[vivid moon]

And the characters are all likeable and layered

I really enjoyed it

I especially like lyney and neuvi

[frozen lintel]

neuvis character is awesome

interesting personality

[vivid moon]

Yessss

Genuinely a good and thoughtful guy even if he doesn't really express it all that well

And the "argument" between him and Navia

All he could say was that he was sorry

[frozen lintel]

zhongli but less old-man vibes

[vivid moon]

Zhongli but doesn't feel overly sus

[frozen lintel]

fr

he just vibin

[vivid moon]

He isn't keeping secrets from us, he isn't roundabout when he speaks, he isn't rude or unnecessarily mean

When he does something he explains why, so there's no misunderstandings

I love him

I am pulling for him

100%

Idc what his kit is

Dude is a dream

[frozen lintel]

his kit is ridiculous

not gonna leak it but

its stupid-levels of ridiculous

Hoyo has a favorite element and it's hydro

[vivid moon]

Dragon Boi

He comes tomorrow right

[vivid moon]

HOLY SHIT THANK YOU

[lament bramble]

Iirc, their update time is the same as Genshin's (as in time/day of the week)

if so, then yeh, in <24h

[vivid moon]

GOD THAT ANIMATION AND MUSIC IS SO MMMMMMMM

THEY ARE GOING ALL OUT FOR DRAGON MAN AND I AM HERE FOR IT

GOD THE CHOREOGRAPHY

AND THE EFFECTS

THE WATERRRRRRRRRR

THE DRAGONNN

And that climax with his visage shifting for just a moment

Before turning back to normal

God it's just so good

How is hoyo's animation team so top notch

My god

[frozen lintel]

Now we wait for ufotable anime

[vivid moon]

YES

[analog pollen]

idk if youve seen any of the honkai 3 animated videos

[pulsar junco]

ah yes, Jake beat me to it

[analog pollen]

but the animation and fight choreography in those is better than most anime ive seen

[daring raft]

see you in september (maybe)

[analog pollen]

kinda a shame theyre an inhouse studio, I want to see more from them

[pulsar junco]

Also

Daniel is free

[nimble condor]

The uncool Daniel yes

[pulsar junco]

what a great video

made me feel for Daniel

https://tenor.com/view/kazuhaification-danheng-honkai-gif-23608140

[maiden escarp]

The babygirl

[nimble condor]

Oh we finally get to see the foxian beauty

[lament bramble]

tbh, half of them just annoy me cause like...
Visually pog, but barely invested in the story by the point it comes

also the Kiana bias is real

[daring raft]

omg Jake is literally me fr

[lament bramble]

last one I remember being invested in was either the Sentience fight or the Bronya/Seele rescue one
Tho Sentience's one was undercut by some of the worst gameplay in the game in the chapter or two leading up to it...

Even Sentience's mental adjustments can't change how bad those chapters were

[maiden escarp]

Clearly the best one is the skiing

[lament bramble]

ngl, in my personal top 3

[frigid basin]

What is this

[lament bramble]

Honkai Salt Rail

[frigid basin]

Must be rusty af

[lament bramble]

I don't think getting gud fixes storyline issues 🤔

[daring raft]

they can help complement or add pluses to said stories that weren’t full there then but yeah

flaws will still stick

[lament bramble]

I mean, my main complaint is when the gameplay just turns into walking simulator for several hours

in a gamemode with no sprint

[daring raft]

[nimble condor]

Can't copy the image cause phone YouTube is an asshole so here a screenshot

[nimble condor]

hmm ive decided

i will not pull dragon boi

I dont think ill like his gameplay even tho i absolutely love his design

Ill pull Fu Xuan and then save up for bladie

[frozen lintel]

Big attacks

:3

[nimble condor]

big attacks that take to much sp

i much prefer balde

[maiden escarp]

[nimble condor]

Golden hates daniel confirmed

[maiden escarp]

Nuh uh

[frigid basin]

[deft delta]

I’m pulling for the 4 stars

[maiden escarp]

Is there new trailblaze missions this update?

[nimble condor]

ya

i think so

unless it's just daniel's quest

[vivid moon]

What was dragon man's E2 again? I'm at work and about to go back from my break

[nimble condor]

basically free lvl 3 attack

[maiden escarp]

Wait that's not part of his base kit?

[nimble condor]

no

his burst only gives him 2 stacks

[maiden escarp]

Oh then I'm definitely not getting him

I was tempted by free level 4

*3

[nimble condor]

His burst on E0 is meant to turn his turn into a 1 SP cost attack

instead of a 3 SP Cost

with E2 it becomes a free lvl 3 atack

[maiden escarp]

Yeah then it ain't worth it for me

[maiden escarp]

I'm not gonna go e2 for him

[nimble condor]

Im just gonna level Regular Daniel and Hook in the meanwhile

while i wait for bladie to come

[maiden escarp]

Wait his ult isn't aoe either??

[nimble condor]

his ult is blast

[maiden escarp]

Damn that's crazy

[nimble condor]

it deals it's full dmg to 1 target

and a diminished dmg to adjacent targets

[maiden escarp]

Yeah fu xuan looking mad nice rn

[nimble condor]

that's how most destruction work

[maiden escarp]

Destruction cringe

We on that nihility and hunt gang

[nimble condor]

MC , can chose to either deal ST or Blast

Hook, her enhanced skill is blast

Blade, enhanced attack and Burst are blast, Talent idk i think it's full AOE

Daniel the Hun, everything except lvl 0 and lvl 1 attack are blast

[maiden escarp]

[nimble condor]

im probably missing someone

oh right clara

[maiden escarp]

Himeko has blast

Oh

[nimble condor]

Ye but himeko is the sucky character

[maiden escarp]

Clara doesn't do blast really aside from funny purple counter

[nimble condor]

even herta has full aoe

[nimble condor]

clara skill and enhanced counter is blast

[maiden escarp]

The skill is aoe

[nimble condor]

oh and arlan has blast on his skill and burst

[nimble condor]

is it im mistaken then

[maiden escarp]

Ye

[nimble condor]

i dont have clara unfortunatly

anyway i sleep now
