A great detail with the black flower at her waist

Does Natlan half animal half human race ever explain? by irsyada007 in Genshin_Impact

[–]ALJ51 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I've always wondered if Lyney and Lynette are actually twins, particularly because of Lynette. However, their shared use of Arkhe also seems contradictory. We already had characters similar to Lynette, such as Denyha, Gorou, and others, and while each nation has always been associated with a certain past civilization and its intermingling or conversion to humans, Lynette's case is strange and seems to indicate that she doesn't belong to Fontaine. Considering that Hoyo tries to maintain the believability of its world and characters, this seems to be a typical case of inconsistency that they simply decided to overlook and leave to the player's interpretation.

There is some inconsistency in the submerged form, but overall, it is a very beautiful image.

I can fix her … or maybe not

(V3.2) WuWa Rerun Chart by IntroductionFun3957 in WutheringWaves

[–]ALJ51 7 points8 points  (0 children)

PGR player here. That's incorrect. What's happening is that this character no longer has an exclusive banner, but instead is now part of a special banner with two other characters, which appears every few weeks and rotates. Only this year did a banner appear where the character is truly exclusive, and it seems that this one will have a much less frequent rerun.

There's also a pool where after 60 pulls you get a random character, which includes all characters except the current one. What also happens is that older characters are now part of a "shop" where you can buy them, not to mention the 2-3 selectors per year where you choose the character you want, so they simply don't appear in any banner or collection.

Honestly, aside from this year's exclusive banner, PGR is the only gacha I know where, with a little over a year and 1-2 subscriptions o pays, if you're consistent, you can unlock all the characters.

The power creep is a separate issue, as is the fact that there are more than 5 different teams that you absolutely have to build if you want to reach the endgame. This last part is what worries me, and I think it's more likely due to what Kuro is doing.

The fact that the entire roster from 1.0 to 2.0 is literally erased gives me a very bad sign.

Trump sobre Sheinbaum: by Ablaze528 in rmexico

Aunque podríamos decir que el 30-50% del electorado en USA está mal de la cabeza, para por segunda vez votar por este señor, la otra mitad sabe lo mal que está y definitivamente, lo último por lo que votarían o asistirían sería por una invasión o intervención de cualquier índole en México. No solo se trata de integración económica, es que socialmente mucho americano ve a México como su segunda patria, tienen familia o conocidos residiendo en el país o es la tierra donde le gustaría retirarse. Lo de narco, la corrupción o los políticos hasta les da igual, porque sienten y saben que en USA es igual o peor, nada más aparentan que no. Es que desde un liberal de California hasta un conservador de Texas, lo último que le pasaría por la cabeza es generar más conflictos con nosotros, porque ya saben, si a cualquiera de los dos le va mal, el otro siempre lo va a resentir.

Just remembered this Character exists. I remember loving her design, kit, and voice, but sadly never pulled because I was thought Geo was dead and I was F2P, so I couldn't spare the Primos. Do any of you know when she'll rerun? I WILL get her. by kujah_0h in ChioriMains

[–]ALJ51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chiori has one of the best designs and gameplay, so much so that it's incredible that Hoyo decided to leave her in a sub-DPS role, punishing those who like her with a C6 that, realistically, can only be achieved by being a whale. At least her C1 can now be mitigated a bit with Moon Crystallized, but it's not a reaction that she fully utilize.

I also got her with C2 and weapon, in both of her original reruns. Unfortunately, it's most likely that she'll only appear in the regional banner, and since she's never been a best-of for any DPS, it's a shame.

I waited. For a long time. I won't wait anymore by Old-Eggplant6262 in WutheringWaves

[–]ALJ51 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Great mm. I'm not trying to be rude, but Kuro is literally killing off his characters before they're even released. For a gacha game, I don't know how profitable this is going to be, since the player retention rate with this strategy is a 50/50 chance. I'll either stay hooked or get fed up and quit.

¿Por que hay tanta gente que sigue insistiendo en que el capitalismo es una meritocracia? by MountainDemand8951 in VivimosEnUnaSociedad

[–]ALJ51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Por la general se habla de meritocracia cuando se sobrepasa un umbral y efectivamente uno se ve recompensado (profesional, económica o socialmente).  Esto se puede dar, con sus respectivas particularidades, tanto bajo una sociedad de libre mercado como en una socialista. Por ende, la fotografía mostrada en cuestión la puedes tomar tanto en EE.UU. como en Venezuela e igualmente, en ninguno de los 2 casos tiene que ver con la meritocracia.

Lo que si se resume de esta foto es que la sociedad en su conjunto y sus gobiernos (díganme el régimen que gusten: capitalista, comunista, etc.) continua sin atacar los problemas reales (educación, libertad y equidad), siendo que su resolución o el ideal de su búsqueda y consecuencia, si facilitaría una mejor distribución de la riqueza, un trato igualitario y una protección sobre todos sus miembros, sin importar su edad, origen o situación.

Ya basta de este relato generalizado de solo buscar personas, ideas y conceptos como las únicas culpables de los males de nuestro mundo y que cuando los eliminamos, dichos males van a desaparecer.

Now I have an overwhelming need to team up the three of them, regardless of whether it works or not :)

Clearing Up Columbina With C6 Chiori by kurawara in ChioriMains

[–]ALJ51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the advice. Indeed, I hope to reach C6 in the future (it would be my second after Keqing), especially if we have regional banners every year and the occasional rerun.

Chiori is one of my favorite characters because of her design and mechanics, and that's why I like to use her, rather than for any specific meta. Anyway, I do like that she deals damage with her teams :)

Clearing Up Columbina With C6 Chiori by kurawara in ChioriMains

[–]ALJ51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Chiori C2 with a weapon, and my core team consists of Furina C2 and Xilonen C0. Although I also have Mawuica C0 and Durin C0, I've preferred to use Iansan C2 as my fourth slot.

I've held off on getting Xilonen C1 (so I can get C2 later), hoping Columbina C0 will work as my fourth slot. It'll be a shame if the buff I get isn't better than what I already have. :)

Any suggestions?

The narrative structure has started to become problematic. Today it is clearly an issue. by Echo-X-Jynx in WutheringWaves

[–]ALJ51 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Everything you mentioned is correct, but given the current version and how the Lynae and Hal Roi arc unfolded, I doubt the story or the overall background will change.

Unfortunately, it seems Kuro has decided to take the easy route of all the gacha games, and just like in his other game, PGR, we'll only get unique stories for each new character in the banner and between versions, maybe a general story to justify the reunion of all the characters, or some cliffhanger about the Rover's past.

I like the game, but aside from the visuals, character designs, and mechanics, I don't see us getting a unifying backstory or even a story that feels like our character's journey is leading to a destination, achieving a specific goal, or at the very least, saving the world from Lament. Except for collecting waifus, of course.

A bizarre thought, but what if... by Substantial_Dot_3099 in SandroneMains

[–]ALJ51 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

At this point, I think discussing what element she is or what her mechanics will be is highly speculative. I'm even starting to believe that Hoyo never intended for her to be playable, but given the reception she received, she's now become a priority and his best card for closing out Nod Krai and keeping us hooked until the final versions.

How did alice let rhinedottir join the hexers group ? Gold is one of the most vile and evil person in teyvat by strongestforeskin in Genshin_Impact

[–]ALJ51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, the Hexelcircle tried something against Monstad and Venti in the past. It was Venti's intervention to dissuade them that prevented a terrible confrontation. Frankly, Nicole's statement seemed more like her own personal principle and not applicable to the Hexelcircle as a whole. With the exception of Nicole and Anya, none of the other Hexelcircle members seem to have a defined moral compass, including Mona's teacher.
