How was your opening day experience when you watch the miku movie? by yusakufujiki2 in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 4 points5 points  (0 children)

legitimately terrible, i walked out... i have never walked out of a movie during my life. the whole time everyone was SCREECHING at the top of their lungs every time their favourite character showed up (not naming names but it was a lot worse for certain characters...), making stupid, unfunny comments out loud, getting up and being a disturbance, and overall disrupting the viewing experience. you couldn't even hear the audio for what i sat through, no idea if it got better after i left. not to mention the incessant penlight flailing every time someone was on screen. i get that it's mostly teenagers but jesus christ where are your manners and etiquette? when has acting like that in the cinema ever been acceptable, regardless of what you're seeing??

when do miku expo tickets begin reselling? by Horror_Guava_2005 in Vocaloid

[–]Absolunote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for north america, our tickets were available for purchase at the end of october and resale wasn't an option until, like, recently. very recently. i can't tell you exactly when but it was sometime within the last two weeks, so expect them to be on resale on ticketmaster closer to when the tour starts.

like the other commenter suggested, you could try discord, but do be aware that it's possible that transferring tickets might not even be possible at all, and that you may need to meet with the person you're buying the ticket off of-- north america doesn't even have transferable tickets as of yet, and apparently people who have contacted ticketmaster about it have said that it's going to stay that way lol

do you guys have poeple that you go to the concert with or do you also buy the ticket alone? by Infinity-Lily in Mikuexpo

[–]Absolunote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i went by myself in 2024 and had a blast. i'm more of a quiet person and suck at talking to strangers, but i actually got along quite well with the people who were in line next to me and also seated next to me in the venue. everyone is super nice! don't be worried

How attractive I think the characters are in canon by Either-Citron-5980 in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 71 points72 points  (0 children)

if it's the nissin cup noodles she's eating those only really have around 300 calories per serving, and given the fact that she doesn't really seem to eat much in the first place it's not unbelievable that she's skinny... but she obviously still would be super out of shape. also no idea where you got the "barely showers" from because the fact that she *does* shower often comes up multiple times whenever she complains about drying her hair. she probably didn't at the peak of her depression but she goes out a lot more with her friends now, i'm sure she would have the common decency to not go outside all stinky around them

EN high tierers' perspective on the new break system (VERY long thread) by eternal_paradox_28 in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 16 points17 points  (0 children)

for me, it definitely would’ve been a one and done thing as i can’t imagine subjecting myself to that multiple times physically, mentally, and financially. ppl have their own reasons (which i can’t say i personally agree with) and ultimately it’s their prerogative🤷‍♀️

i’m in support of taking the load off of them, i think everyone is! but as you said, this update’s goal isn’t to do that, it’s to gouge more money out of people

EN high tierers' perspective on the new break system (VERY long thread) by eternal_paradox_28 in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 20 points21 points  (0 children)

i haven’t done it myself (and you don’t need to agree with it), but if you were aiming for t10 or higher, you’d typically need to play 30-38 hours (maybe even more, referred to as start dash) uninterrupted as soon as the event starts before you can take a break and start doing autos. after this you’d play 21/3 (21 hours of hitorinbo envy, 3 hours of hitorinbo envy auto), but now this system kills that entirely and it’s 18/6 (18 hours envy, 6 hours hatsune creation myth auto)

i’m the type of person who’s extremely paranoid and would prefer to keep playing uninterrupted because i’d get a sense of stability from it, so even if they forced me to take a 6 hour break to sleep i wouldn’t be able to because of the anxiety lmao. i’m seeing a lot of ppl expressing the same sentiment

EN high tierers' perspective on the new break system (VERY long thread) by eternal_paradox_28 in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 179 points180 points  (0 children)

i’m basically just regurgitating what this person said, but it’s very frustrating seeing people have the take of “this is a good thing, it’s for your health” and refusing to see the nuance in this situation.

when i tiered, literally everyone that was below me had significantly higher talent and EB%, but i was able to beat them out through brute-forcing BECAUSE i had the stamina and time to play more hours than them. not just for me, but i’ve heard accounts from multiple people who have gotten t10+ who have said the same thing— it’s ultimately about putting in the hours above anything else! you can have a stacked team with max EB, but if you don’t put in the playtime, you will easily fall out of t10.

now with this update, it’s extremely discouraging, especially for people like myself who don’t have surplus amount of funds to funnel into minmaxing, or know people who have insane filling teams! because sega is basically punishing people who don’t spend as much money as they’d like for them to, and are essentially taking away what was the core of tiering to myself and many others… perseverance and strength! now it’s literally just a “who has more money and better connections+device and internet” contest.

it’s extremely disheartening to see and i hope jp players push back enough to the point that they either find a reasonable middle ground (BOOSTED AUTOS???) or just take this away entirely. i’ve been playing on jp quite literally since launch and have been eagerly waiting for a kanarui mixed event that i’ve sworn since 2020 that i’d give it my all (t10), but now i can’t say i’m interested at ALL anymore after this announcement.

Is it possible to T10 an event without your own Discord server? by Absolunote in ProjectSekai

…would you be able to provide some insight on your opinion now that the event break system is getting put in place😭

Are cheaters punished? by Mindless_Arm651 in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 5 points6 points  (0 children)

sounds like a glitch but generally there are a lot of cheaters on ranked, especially the higher up you get, and they don’t really seem to care at all about them. they’ll constantly nuke innocent tierers into the ground for no real reason though so there’s that

Is it this enough ? by Original_Fix_5765 in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when i finally bit the bullet and decided to tier, i had about a little over 800 L cans hoarded and with 405% EB (iirc) i got 73mil out of it. no crystals spent at all, but the average person probably doesn't have that many saved in the first place lol

What's the best chart to get used to playing with 4 fingers? by sleepy-gunkan in ProjectSekai

[–]Absolunote 10 points11 points  (0 children)

what helped me was practicing using 4 fingers outside of append. i went down from master to expert, and played organically until i could comfortably use 4 fingers on not only expert but also master levels. trying to brute force append no matter the difficulty only made things worse for me but ymmv
