New client update?
Not usually no
At least going by the information that we are provided, it usually can’t interact with the natives of kivotos
usually
Until it's the steam update where kei has gotten into
I swear if the writers are just referencing the Blame Manga about the City's Megastructure
Are we finding the Net Terminal Gene and evading a Lvl 9 Safeguard (Malkuth)
Are the Engis the Silicone Life
On Steam it's Kei
But on my PC the icon it's still Shiroko
I mean mostly that the .ico hasn't changed
son

nah
Probably inspired or probably just a coincidence
But I can pinpoint the similarities between the two
I asure you
Blame isn't the first to have the idea
I know
Can someone tell me why the game is stuck on resetting data
Oh it's on maintenance nvm
ohhi
EoS
LETMEIN
IWANTBTOKIANDAHIMARI
tbh B himari is better then armed imo
they are all armed.....
zam
Is it just me or do people hate and slander the main story chapters when it doesn't have enough wholesome scenes
no?
Hate and slander not having enough wholesome scenes?
The point of the main volumes is that from everything else in the game its tries to depict itself as the most serious
v6 feels like its laying the groundwork for future story telling
could end there or pick up later
I enjoyed it
Agreed
Dont think you should play the main volumes looking for wholesome moments
Same opinion
I also dont see other people (at least not here) slander and hate it for the lack of it as well
Imo volex ch2&3 feels extremely dry in terms of lore. 60% of the scenes so far are the three deca girls having fun, or the gdd girls playing or teasing kei. I don't like how they described malkuth as the end of kivotos and stuff but the first thing she does when she's back is telling the 3 girls bed times stories. Makes her seem very weak as an enemy imo
What about vol1 ch3?
Overhated
NO IT'S NOT OVERHATED AT ALL LMFAOO
Take of all time
Not at all overhated
I must be living under a rock then 😭
The criticism is valid
v1c3 tried to be serious but due to many issues, it completely fell flat.
Same as v4c2, c1 set a rocky but solid groundwork, and they blundered it.
Wtf was v4c2 again
I can't speak for that since I haven't read that yet, but man that's making me a bit depressed I was hoping that volume is good too
Kaya
Oh right them tryna explode a public transportation area
Yes
Nah that's just my opinion, I see a lot of people like it but I don't agree with it
I could make an entire thesis statement on how disappointing v1 ch3 was. But v4c2 was hot garbage
I don't remember v4c2 being that horrible 😭
If anything v1c3 isn't hated enough because it's Hoshino's chapter, the top 2 strongest of the verse and one of the most supposedly complex girls in the game yet the execution was so shit that it made me completely apathetic to her tbh
I mean
0 tension ahh vol
EXACTLY OMG
It's not like vol ex is finished right
I gave v4c2 more grace than v1c3.
They already treated malkuth and all the prophets as hot garbage as their threat so
An asspull of a giant threat ain't saving it
One of the main reasons I dislike is is because of the transition, like ch1 was serious and had a lot of important main lore but ch2&3 felt like a picnic with the deca girls
v4c2 still gave a feel that it could be salvageable, v1c3 is hopeless.
Fair, v1c3 genuinely made me uninterested of the other main volumes I haven't read yet because of how disappointing it was
I was so fricking bored it took me 5 days to finish one episode once. Like come on, I have seen enough cute moments just show me some action
One of my main gripes in this game that it's scared of making the player feel fear, despair whatsoever. I don't know how jp and kr look at volume 3 but the Eden treaty should be their standard for writing the main story
Good characters, finishing character arcs, moving plot lines and actual risks and political discussions to talk about
So true omg
Yet they keep on going with the "haha these girls are so silly let's go have fun even when there's a world ending threat involved"
BA writer doesn’t have balls to make enemy as big threat that actually challenge sensei thinkin in different way
game is fine, its a noble bright stories of youth shtick
I dont even treat the main story chapters as serious. Just extended storylines for the respective groups
you dont go to a small icecream shack and demand a 5 star deluxe desert
Tbh that how it always went
you will be dissapointed
I'm surprised a lot of people agree with me here, I remember saying this somewhere else and somebody told me to fuck off saying that volex was the best main story up until now
The wholesome and happy stuff should be on the bond and event stories NOT on the main ones, the main ones shouldnt be terrified of making the player uncomfortable
pho is the doom poster suprme here
vol ex is fine as it is
its not GROUND BREAKING SHAKESPEAR REDEFINING litature
but
That has to be the stupidest shit I've ever seen. I doubt it's better than the Eden treaty seeing as you literally say yourself that it has no tension
I only criticized a part that just left out and question how the hell it lead to this and does it make any sense in writing sense
Tbh tho i still enjoyable
Doesn’t take away the fun of playing game
how?? The only reason it seems it has no "tension" is because we dont see how much the city can potentially eat the rest
Felt more like an hype event than a main story imo
So best they kept treating their main threats as pathetic junk that gets 1 shotted
Playing it just for sake of pyrox and pull fav student
so ride it and enjoy it or shrug and move on smh
Felt too long for me

Then bail out for 1 year
The best volume was when Sensei felt most involved, it's one of vol 3's biggest strengths. He GOT HIMSELF SHOT BY A STUDENT AND SAVED MIKA IN THAT VOLUME HE SHOULD BE DOING THAT MORE OFTEN
Lmaooo same
Go ask supreme that not me lmao
He should be shot more is a fun statement
no it feels like a dupe of pho
I am too tired of human filth to dance that dance rn
Not really often
If that keep happen it just repetitive and it beg the question how sensei gonna pull out that same move in different situation
He only normal human here that can die to bullet
What does this sentence mean btw I don't get it
Like the devs are scared of making a student very bad at the start with a proper turn around, but Saori literally went that way and look where she is now. They're too safe in making their characters. They're so fucking scared of making Kaya be too hateable that they made her ending in v4c2 a complete joke
Y'all only think a story is good when there are stakes involved. A slice of life can be fun too
even Kai is going that route too. I hope Niyaniya is borderline irredeemable
What I mean is he should be doing a LOT for students, like lot lot more to be more relevant to the story
Except that they treated it as some world ending thing in geburah event then went on to make the prophets as pathetic as possible
Why even bother making it just stick to slice of life
Duh
You're lying to your readers
Should he tho? I mean, blue archive is a story about students just growing and improving. I think its fine if sensei is just there to monitor that growth
There's a reason relationship stories, events, mini stories, group events are all separate from the main story
That's not true at all. There's plenty of bond stories and event stories that I personally find good too, but the purpose of the main volumes should be where the tension is most felt. Because what is it even there for then?
Never said that we don't enjoy those. Because that's what unites all of us
Pho tends to spout heavy constant same criticism over and over about how vol ex doesnt EXACTLY use the goddamn kabbalah as if its a novel concept to just "use a name bc cool"
"irredeemable" is overrated trope, so hopefully none would be suffered from it (except Beatrice...)
and the fact that this game never was and never will be something on par with arknights or other games with extensive worl;d building
There's plenty of stories where Sensei just exists to be a cameraman and provides absolutely nothing to the situation, in other words the scene would play out exactly the way it is even without him which at that point why would he even be there
I might think basement dwller will come bsck to story
Because dude is still alive
My guts is telling me something
but we shall MOAN AND COMPLAIN LOUDLY and not let anyone say anything good about it without screeching HOW BAD IT IS FOR NOT USING THIS STUPID ASS MYTHOLOGY the way they wanted
tthats what it means supreme
Yeah coz making it make sense totally counts as 1:1 if i was saying i wanted it a 1:1 the ein sof wouldn't have been a physical entity 
@austere adder v1c3 or vexc2&3

I genuinely dont care what you want from it at this point. your incessant whining and shitting on the game has me just entirely unwilling to entertain your arguments on the matter anymore.
Wdym plenty lol literally 90%
This is stupid that plot device exists only for the sake of plot device I hope that dolt doesn't come back. One of the reasons why v1c3 is so shit
Just being there and making sure things dont turn to shit is a good amount of care
What are you asking me about here
They might will but in different vol
They'll forget him like Francis
god I hope dweller is gone
Like, which one has shittier execution?
if he shows back up again his existence is purely punching bag
Worst gematria villain. So ass
I told you I haven't seen volex yet, v1c3 made me not want to touch the main volumes for several months now. I can't tell you, just know I hated v1c3 that much
agreed
Black suit was peak
What did underground dweller even do besides bomb schale
I forgot what he contributed to v1c3
Fucking force Hoshino to go schizo or something making her terror
Omg 💀
There are good stuff too, like vol6 is really good so it's worth reading
God knows how that even worked
Schizo babble how he controls things
Plot manipulation
Dog what
Literally have potential to be good villain
Like damn
Im sorry i think i lost the plot cuz wtf does that even mean
It's a lame ass reality manip
Oh
Real
Lmaoo
Don't even get my started on the eye patch lady
What the fuck was even her problem? No one knows
blud got the power to manipulate reality and thats what he chose to do
Just a dickhead for the sake of being a dickhead to all sides. She just hates everyone or something
Five billion nuclear bombs to kivotos
I cant even hate on the Underground Dweller or Suou on account of them being v1c3 characters. If literally any amount of more effort or csre was spent on them, im sure they wouldve been fine
And the guy went for the extra step to bomb schale when he could literally just poison Sensei with food or something that way arona or plana can't protect him
It is literally that easy
Devs either forgot to draw it or something or her eye is completely fine lol the eye patch is just to make her look intimidating
Five billions thermonuclear bomb
Could've manipulated some parts so people starts hating sensei
Same, I can't hate the Dweller and Suou either.
Im sure if Suou gets an actual event or anything, she’ll actually have a character and be fun
And he has to grow some balls to fight back
Or if Underground Dweller comes back as an actual opp in a chapter where he has good writing
...B-because you're strong! I want to test your power!
This would be a good idea, one of Sensei's strengths is that he's so loved. But no the writers would actually think long and hard for that to be believable
That's why his morality never gets challenged
They're just so lazy, their designs look interesting as well but if you actually look at what they've done beside just exist for the sake of being a problem it all falls a part
“I heard you are strong,lets fight”
Lose
“What?how you are strong?what make you strong?!?!”
That basically sum it up suou
is this a story venting channel
Nah
So real lmao
😭
Most of the time we’re on topic unless we’re shitting on V1c3
Then satoru hina mid diffs hoshino
Which ig is also on topic but ehh you get the point
Off topic and story
We got 2 of those here
hate to say this but idk if nexon is gon take these criticisms
Well blame me for criticising volex, everyone is criticising other volumes too
and improve
They aren't even here
yep
You'd be surprised shitting on the story here is a rare occurence
so this is an ever growing echo chamber
Hina: " I know about your pain, Hoshino. I read all your files and reports about what happened to Yume".
Bruh.
its an everyday thing
Is it
Hating on anything that isnt v1c3
Then that's good that's what this channel is for
Thats come up like once a week
ig
She know but does she feel it?
Ig thats true?
That's the problem, she doesn't.
Of all people to calm Hoshino down, Hina is not one of them, and somehow she was there, for hype shit.

The hoshino solo fight with the rest of the task force was also ass imo
Story enjoyment
Criticism
Question about something they curious
Arknights
Now blue archive throws in a lot of plot devices in all the time, but i think the one thst genuinely annoyed me was the Thunder Emperor cuz it just felt like an excuse to get Gehenna involved, and by proxy, Hina
Because damn we getting story not like 1 month of half
Could not make someone sound more detached trying to console someone struggling a mental crisis than this.
-I've experienced loss too [X]
-I read your files I know what you are [/]
It extend to 6 month
the veryvery rare battle cats mention that totally is in the chat
Btw not so much criticizing, but how do yall feel about the structure the mainstory has? The first chapter of a volume introducing a new group and their problems while the next chapter or 2 actually focuses on ig largescale issues
I'll turn optimistic in this story once it writes another vol 3 level main volume or has genuine elaborate attempts on world-building that's not jargon jargon incomprehensible forgettable name of some God
I dont tbink its bad but ive hesrd mixed opinions about it
uhhhhh
That's fine, it's a standard way to do things
meds
There was a battle cats mention around like 4 weeks ago
Kabbalah would've been fire if they have some balls
It's not even like an actual religion that says there's a sky god
Literally the point of it is change is actually in humans
idk why
I can only think of one person who would bring that up in a BA chat and their username literally says it
I dont even mind Decagrammation much. I actually do like it but thats separate
Volex ch1 was peak
Actually, now that i think about it, pretty sure it set up a Red Winter volume at some point but yea, that shit is never getting elaborated on
real life politics, sadly.
man
at least ak getting monhun collab
despite the politics in the room
tho that one prob died down a lil
Well good thing the Devs actually listen to their players but I'm not sure if they do that with the story too. Like this is the second or third time they've made a bad story cause they do not want to add any elements that can make the story even remotely sad
???
Ch1 when it was just the introduction years ago it was fine
It has a framework
Then they went out their way to completely retcon it

wait they do?
then lets transfer this chat to the feedback
Schizophrenia
At least with the twitch thing and the UI stuff if I remember
thats twitter
True
Is it? I dont even have a problem with Decagrammation not having a proper villain since we already ig “defeated” it
Self destruction
We didn't destroy it
Riiiight
Well at least it's not as bad as any other popular game where the Devs absolutely do not listen to feedbacks
But yea, the main reason i dont have a problen with the prophets or malkuth is because they arent even really our opponents. Theyre just following the instructions of a vending machine to ig put things simply. Hell theyre also losing things because of it
The problem is treating them as world ending shit in the geburah event for them to do a 180 and forget it all happened
Blue archive start up movie

Think we’re more concerned about Netzach and the Decagrammation fallout as world ending threats than the actual prophets
Brostato
Himari literally said it's a volf equivalent threat
The entire team
At that point himari didn't even know what a netzach is, she was saying it when she saw how strong gevurah was
You know it would've been fine if it doesn't mind cosmic threats as long as it becomes ideological
They could've literally made gevurah the "severity" of decagrammaton and they have to fight it's fucked up version of justice
That's not 1:1, that's just it's thematic essence
Hod would've been a more sinister reflection of rio since it's literally intellect cynicism
I have enough points to bought this
can someone explain the malkuth encounter in part 1
why did she have to work with a time limit?
what are the 3 decam engineers lying to the prophets about?
what was malkuth's goal in the encounter with sensei and gang?
Are we there yet?
My guess she just throwing warning shots to scare them and hope they give up. From the PV, it's look like she need all of her power for something we will later know soon so she didn't go all out
Would never buy it bruh
What the heck is a startup movie
dint they explain it right after
that theyre prolly gonna lose
Guess I'll wait and see then
From the moment they started talking about the time limit til the end of the sensei malkuth encounter, I wasn't entirely sure what was happening
My friend had a similar experience too
It sounded as if they were trying something that could be interpreted as betrayal towards the prophets
oh is it abt planting that tree
It's about the lying to the prophets part, along with how steel continent 'doesnt mind'
something about how thats not her main function and all that
But yea I'm also curious about why honoring of tiphareth's wish to keep the seed safe would mean betrayal to their plan
Oh yea
So sensei gang's assumption about her not being combatant was true
mmmmm
it will all make sense soon enough
she HAS a combat mode so I feel like presuming "she is not a combatant" is the wrong mindset
but rather "it is not her main function"
For people that paid attention to Vol.F can I ask how did Haruna's car get into that space ship again
its damn big enough to fit a small car
magic
Are we there yet? 
Extend it
yey more pyro
dang, more rocks

Heh, JP gets a bit of slack
TA still sucks

so it begins
lets dance the dance of destruction malkuth. Its like what
soemthing in the billions
or a trillion or some insane number
but we have 2 weeks to do it iirc
3?
quadrillion
something like that
Problem is can you guys keep up ins torment

HOW MANY EPISODES ARE THERE BEFORE THE RAID
Guys, do I need to read the event part of the Decagrammaton or from the story table first?
Like, whats the order
check pins for flow if you NEED the other vol too
otherwise literally read deca vol 1-3 in the order of 1 to 2 to 3
ah fuck the kronos is back
Momois quite cute in the raid lobby
like if your all caught up on story up till vol 5 your good
Yeah pay nexon
well time to mute the fucking game every time i try to enter battlepass
You have to buy the shitty pass

Shitty pass
Yeah I just did half of the story for emergency pyros and didnt really want to roll it back, but I guess rn is the time.
Ill pay shinon to [REDACTED] if she shuts up

The enemy are just impossible to kill
Oh, that is how
Is there any difference between the girls in this minigame?
Appearances
That the difference
he meant like it was in the original run
if there were any changes to the gameplay

Do i need to wait this to continue the story?
yes
oh yeah the characters have slightly different mechanics
Wasn't arround when this minigame shows up, so wonder if The girls have any difference
Also yeah, this makes a return

So it will start tomorrow?
yes
to be fair special operation events are really that special
yeah but like
afaik this is the 4th S.O. event so far
you're not wrong but, i mean the boss can't be defeated in a single day so
also not everyone is ready yet.
BALLLLLLLLLLLLLLD
@drifting cradle told u its gonna play like a radio
Lol I just got like 12 iori elephs in one multi sweep
adorable
So the minigames are really just there for fun and doesn't really give some useful rewards
Pretty cool I assume we can access them anytime now permanently
Is the current stories going to be archived if it skip it? Since I havnt read the previous main chapters
sameeee
You can skip and read them anytime
It should probably be accessible even after the event ends
MY EYES!!!
Or just don't skip and read them later
its gonna stay as main story
Much like the Ark of I forgot the name
yea
Isn't this a line from meet the spy tf2 lmao
Didn't expect to see a reference in my ba game
The raid is still not live right?
They reference a lot
not yet
First one is tomorrow
Read ep10 first

All i can say is millennium do invent really dumb things at times
Is it okay for me to read the deca chapter before I read the hyakkaryouran and Arius chapters so I have event context?
Its fine
if your clear up to teh start of vol 5 then your in the clear for vol ex.
Pretty
Gorgeous even
poyo
i'm binging chapter 2 before the world raid and i'm already reaching peak 
This is why Volume EX is my favourite
@jaunty sun @naive niche
its tomorrow
oh
Oh, am I mistaken? I thought I heard something about delicious pancakes...
That does beg the question...
How does Pan-Pan taste like anyway?
I still have yet to see a news that beats "Makoto debates a Parrot, loses."
Delicious pancakes?
Delicious pancakes.
when does operation binah start
Anyway
Time for me to actually play volume 6 instead of skipping through the story of the first few episodes to get pyroxenes
this is reminding me of the meteor that hit nearby our mayon volcano last night 
this girl will NEVER survive the philippines
Devs read that Kurohagane doujin huh



eh?
silence degens
i saw smth
🤣
go look in the places you find that stuff

dont ask for it here

17 hours before world raid right?

Looks like wife

Seeing the Nagisa standing sprite without the tea set feels so wrong
the maid event minigame is so much fun with pc control
Have they added the mika swing in the furniture boxes yet
how do i fulfill her reques
Look in the mirror
Guess who didn't get her
Me
Who's Me
sensei is a transformers fan 
is this a rel stel reference
you can tickle kei in the tasks list
for some reason, im not surprised at all that Sensei probably is a transformer fan 
Huh so himaris in the tier below Nodoka/Kotama
in terms of?
Just liking sensei. For some reason I put the stalkers at the very top
damn u put himars at stalker tier?
Below
That's the top. There's no ladder honestly. The students like Sensei differently
Yuzu hiding as usual
how
wait
Me going straight from Volume EX and Volume 5 to the much more grounded Volume 6 is a little bit like whiplash or something
I just got called a geezer
GIve me Himari/o you damn thing
First I get called cringe, and now this?
why are you geezer
why are you unc
How long does chapter 3 of Vol ex take to read? Do I have to read it before starting the new event?
Only 10 episodes are out so far and you do need to read the story to take part in the event as it's also part of it
But the event is permanent so you can just read it anytime you want
Thanks a lot
What about the rewards? I heard there's like 9k pyrox to be grinded out?
You can skip and read later if you don't have time
Alright, thanks
ah have a question, why did they not bring C&C and Veritas? they were fighting against decagrammaton
They know they're up against a bunch of bums
who is going to handle what is happening in millennium if all powerhouses are outside the district
and plus decag is fraud
Because bread is tastier than key
but that doesnt mean they're WEAK
i believe that kei can mog malkuth 
yea, but ah bet Rio would be like "nah, i'd win", and then make sensei-

180 for Rio
cute
Goodbye, students….
I killed them all
funny you say that
you have a problem with me? 
go eat my special triple decker knuckle sandwich

Two grown ass men threatening to touch each other
Bottom 9 out of 10 times probably

But if I'm a bottom and Rio is giga-bottom that makes me a top don't you think
Every time Ichika opens her eyes, someone gets sent to the Philippines
tang ina ang inet
Atsui
Valid crashout
oh my gosh she is so adorable ❤️
I just realized...
I don't have to read Kuzunoha arc to read Deca
Better late than never ig
too bad, rumors fly really fast and stick real hard
its fine
kuzunoha is sunshine
no
you will take your streaking jokes and like it

But they only talk about that! 😭
tbf its one of those hot gossip funni things
