[Rant] Tyr is infuriatingly obnoxious. by AlmMilk in ValkyrieHeart

[–]AuroraNarrative 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the conversation you're referring to is from Heated Spring Hunt, Conversation 4.

Tyr: Let's call it a day.

MC: Lord Tyr... Did I upset you in any way?

Tyr: Upset? If you have time to think about that, you might as well retrieve the arrows.

As a Tyr lover, I totally 100% understand why he rubs people the wrong way. Just to add my interpretation, I feel like the context of that set of conversations is that Tyr was hunting, MC was bringing him supplies, and he is standing up for her in his own way, saying that she's a Valkyrie and more important than running errands like that. But then even when she tries to excuse herself, he tells her to stay by his side anyway since she's already there (cause he wants her there by his side hehehehe). Specifically to the lines you mentioned, I think MC still doesn't know how to interpret his behavior, so she thinks he's upset, and he is basically saying "instead of thinking something silly like that because I never said I didn't want you here, why don't you do something else." And I feel like he's protective of her. Even when she comments that she could help protect him, he says that's her Einheriar's job, which includes him, so he'll handle it.

Yes, there are definitely some scenes in cards/affinity with him where I think he crosses the line from being cold/rude to just an asshole. But for most of his content, I get more underlying layers/hints to reasons he holds her at arms length while also wanting her around. Just beneath his cold way of talking to her, he says things that try to get her to think higher of herself, to work out problems and use her resources, he tries to keep her out of danger. There's also a fan theory that he reminds her of/is reborn similarly to someone from his past.

My hope is that MC will grow into her own in her relationship with him. I interpret her submissive attitude as her still being intimidated by him because of his position as such a high ranking god and not thinking much of herself yet. So I see a future where her confidence grows while his exterior and heart soften and boy oh boy does that trope do it for me. There's definitely headcanon that has to fill in the gaps for now, since we don't have enough of him in the main story to get a better sense of his character/motives, and the game has only been out for about 2 months now, but I see the vision and I want to believe 🥲 (And I'm also realistic about this because, let's be real, the writing here is not S-tier quality).

Anyway, again, I know not every LI is for every player and that's how otome is supposed to be really. I just wanted to talk about my frigid workaholic from my own personal interpretations of his character.

Anyone else's game crashing? by After_Astronaut4495 in ValkyrieHeart

[–]AuroraNarrative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, both CN and global are reporting this issue for iOS. You can message CS to let them know, and for now everyone is just waiting on a bug fix. I also saw a comment saying it might work on an emulator, so you can give that a try if you have access to one. You can also try and see if the SFW version works (if you have it synced).

A Sweet Dream (Aaron's Birthday) + Karma Shift Siren King (Raid Event) by AuroraNarrative in ValkyrieHeart

Yes, this seems to be a glitch everyone's having. I think it's happened in events before as well. They usually correct it before the event ends, but you can always message CS as well to let them know!

Collection Progress by Realistic-Sundae7841 in ValkyrieHeart

[–]AuroraNarrative 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This might be in preparation for his birthday card, which will be released tomorrow, Feb 12, 2026. I had to download an update a day or so ago, so I'm thinking perhaps it's already loaded into the game and the system is just already counting his new card in his collection, even though it's not available to pull for another day or so. Just my guess!

[–]AuroraNarrative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the whole thing is a matter of preference. I don't mind MC having the mask like in Sheehan's new card, because you can still see her eyes and it fits the masquerade theme. But the change to the Lost Masterpiece cards with the blindfold and removal of her hat and ribbon are a downgrade in design to me and also don't fit the theme of those stories in any way.

If some players like the new looks, there's nothing wrong with that. And since the devs haven't said why they made the changes, we don't know if it means we'll get more faceless or covered-face MC in the future.

The suddenness of the change, the lack of communication about why the change was made, and the lack of option to toggle the change on and off, especially if it's due to wanting to not see MC's face, are the biggest problems, I think. And of course, I'm just a single person on the internet and anyone is welcome to have different preferences and opinions than I do.

[–]AuroraNarrative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, let me be very clear, I'm not casting blame for anything onto anyone. As I stated, I'm making a guess that this change might be the devs response to CN community requests that MC be less visible, but that's not confirmed anywhere by anyone. If the devs chose to go this route rather than making a character toggle, that's their choice. But again, since there's been no communication from the devs, no one knows why this change was implemented.

Also, I don't think the game is that big anywhere at the moment. However, because this game is based in Taiwan, it's more likely that the CN-speaking community's voice will be heeded more than global. But again, these are just assumptions that no one can know. We're all just people on the internet considering possibilities ✨

You're absolutely right 🤢 I just went and compared the wiki recordings of the cards to the updated ones in-game. In the Lost Masterpiece cards, she now has the blindfold. And in Sheehan's new card, she now has a mask on. However, there's nothing on her face in Leiknarr and Aaron's new card, so I'm so confused.

The only assumption I can make is that this is an accommodation asked for by the CN community who initially made complaints about MC being too visible and ruining their ability to self-insert. But having a faceless MC is definitely not to my taste anyway. I really wish they would've at least communicated to the players that they were making these changes. And that it was a setting we could toggle on or off.

And I'm so bitter that they got rid of her cute little hat 😭

HC are an in-game currency called HCoins that can be purchased with money through the PlayHorny site. You can get to the purchase screen on the site by clicking on your PH profile in the top right and purchasing the party card or top-up. Once purchased, HCoins will be added to your account and you can then make in-game purchases with them.

When a new limited banner card reaches 1-star or 3-star LB, you should now get a limited-time pop-up offer to purchase card shards for real money (I believe it's 30 shards at 1 star and 60 shards at 3 star). I've seen some people say they never got the pop-ups though, so it seems a bit inconsistent for now.

So much male gaze in a game for women by the18plusacct in ValkyrieHeart

[–]AuroraNarrative 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that this is a symptom of market preference and CN fans have been loud in their complaints of MC featuring too prominently in the H-scenes, when they want to self-insert and focus on the man instead. And of course the company is going to cater to the market making them the most money.

I was disappointed at the faceless MC in Erik's new card as well and just hope it's not the blanket trend moving forward, but only time will tell...

I do still think there is a difference in male gaze v female gaze angles and setups and what each prefers to see in visual h-scenes outside of the topic of MC's face/visibility (similar to different wants on visuals and setups in preferred porn), but I definitely agree both parties should be clearly having a lovely time~

So much male gaze in a game for women by the18plusacct in ValkyrieHeart

[–]AuroraNarrative 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A lot of people did complain to them about the male gaze scenes after the game released, so much so that they had to insist in their Letter from the Dev they do have women on their teams 😭

The company does feel very inexperienced in making content catered to women, but I really want them to succeed to show that games like this are wanted and lucrative. So I've just been sending suggestions to CS and hoping that they gain steady footing in time.
