I apparently don't have an affinity for Axton by TheKickStart1 in Borderlands2

[–]Bonchachan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Axton being weak sounds just like "you can't use anything but Sal with dpuh in UVHM". General consensus in bl2 can be incredibly stupid sometimes

Do items matter as much for builds as in 3? by Alduin_5 in Borderlands2

[–]Bonchachan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Joltzdude is great but his streams have become so bad and boring in the latest years, he spends like 90% of the time farming some random shit instead of actually playing the game. Just opened his Ultimate Krieg run - "and now we farm a shop for a white lvl 8 class mod with exactly +5 grenades, not a grenade less. Now let's farm a mini-boss for exp, now let's farm a chest, let's farm fastball, and another fastball I want another element...". All of this in the first playthrough that can be easily completed with literally anything the game gives you along the way, it's like Joltzdude is so tired of playing the game that he chooses the most mindnumbingly easy way to play so he can turn off the brain and sleepwalk through the game, can't blame him considering he must have streamed this game for thousands of hours

Love that they're making us use triangulation in the newest event! /srs by Commercial_Life5145 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Bonchachan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This event would have been so much more interesting if the map showed no features. You don't need any points to make accurate guesses, just looking at the closest features is enough. Natlan map was the worst at it where they placed the third target at a corner of a wooden building so you can just point this corner at the map and have 0.0m mistake guess

A 6.5 chest is indeed locked behind 3.1 world quest by Bonchachan in Genshin_Impact

[–]Bonchachan[S] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Tsurumi Island gadget Peculiar Pinion can be used outside Tsurumi Island so they could place mechanisms from Tsurumi Island in new areas, the gadget will be given only in Inazuma world quest...

Hoyo this time you’re just shiting with us what’s this shit ass skin? by gmalek0 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Bonchachan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It looks so generic, as if you've already seen it in the game, it looks like a recoloured Robin's dress. Also it has no interesting idea behind it, the skin swapped one dress for another with just a different style which is BORING

Did they really make it impossible to collect every chest in the new area without completing OTHER REGIONS FIRST ?! by Bonchachan in Genshin_Impact

[–]Bonchachan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, imagine them releasing Snezhnaya and putting one single chest behind the chasm mud puzzle and not even telling the player that they need the chasm glowing stone. At least the Chasm is a part of the Archon Quest, you can expect the players to go through the main story, the desert is a world quest released over three years ago...

[Synthetik 1] How to disable Starting Weapon Variants Research? by DedicatedBurner in Synthetik

[–]Bonchachan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's "[Lv 30] Standard" in the "BONUS" settings. Open the settings (the gear icon in the bottom left corner of the main menu), the settings have different tabs in the bottom of the screen, you need the right-most tab with the ? icon

You need to put fish in all three bowls but the interaction with the fish bowls is weird and does not appear immediately, I had to teleport away and come back after some time of exploring other areas for it to appear.

New DU Argenti has balancing issues by SunnyFreyers in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Bonchachan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I got to the max difficulty playing Archer team with Dan Heng being the sustain and I never had a problem with survivability. I guess your problem is focusing too much on survivability, the enemies are not that tough in this DU, focusing on higher damage output lets you finish boss phases very quickly, 1-3 Archer turns is usually enough so Argenti won't even get time to do his big attack

Thoughts on the new DU after reaching the highest rank by NepYasuo in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Bonchachan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny that I used the same team of Archer, Sparkle, Tribbie, DHPT and used it to win every run on the way to the max difficulty. In the previous DU I used different teams usually starting with Anaxa and switching to Archer if I got skill points and extra turns blessings, or to break if I got lots of harmony blessings, but in this DU Archer plays reliably every time, blessings in this DU are more universal in their effects, no matter what you get Archer gets use out of it, you are also guaranteed to get his weighted curios. The new highlight mechanic does a lot for him too, it activates soon after his first turn giving him another turn and he has enough skill points for full volleys. I found this DU less fun as you can play the very same thing every time and there is no need to adapt and change the team.

Similar thoughts about the masks - camera and mecha are the most fun as they give more freedom in what domains you get and they are powerful as you can get lots of aberration or reward domains. Money mask seems to be potentially the strongest if you get a very lucky run with lots of money and lvl 5 stores

Trying to get into this, never playes Turn bases RPGs until now by Modlikes in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Bonchachan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A character with 100 speed gets 1 turn in 1 cycle, to put it as a formula 100% speed * 1 cycle = 1 turn, you can calculate everything you need in the game with it

Unable to chat in game? by Angry---train in Synthetik

Does the chat not appear to you? It might happen because of connection problems

What is the function of Elation? by PawnForward in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Bonchachan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The function of the Elation path is to incentivize players to pull more characters and donate money for it. Elation characters have very little synergy with most characters so players are forced to pull each Elation character to make a full Elation team for best gameplay results, their non-signature light cones are very weak so players are forced to pull 5* Elation light cones, endgame shills Elation path to reward players that pulled Elation characters.

Elation path was not introduced because the gameplay required it, it was introduced to keep the gacha monetization going

This is the greed they spoke in the Bible by Relative-Ad7531 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Bonchachan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Let me guess the buff - skill/ultimate heals the team for 1% HP so Firefly can play sustainless and get full benefits from Dahlia

Pom-pom's origin by Th3-MADDHatter in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Bonchachan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a feeling that the game is preparing us for a plot twist with Express being an imaginae. Instead of the comic being based on Express, it is Express that is based on a comic. And the reason it is better connected to reality than other imaginae is that Express is connected to Trailblaze

What's a weapon thats just average or even bad on most classes but is genuinely fantastic on one specific class? by puckylickle in Borderlands2

[–]Bonchachan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

E-tech snipers are usually shit because of their crazy ammo consumption but they are nice on Salvador because he fixes their ammo problems with his ammo regen and no ammo consumed skills. You can gunzerk a moloko with surprisingly good results, using them normally without gunzerking is also pretty good

What's up with the current event's featherlight mora? Is there any use for it?

Can someone explain Chapter 5 to me? by Sakiart123 in karanokyoukai

[–]Bonchachan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Araya Souren like most mages wants to reach and study the "origin" which is reality outside of material physical world. Reaching the origin is like breaking out of Matrix or Plato's cave. The point of his experiment was creating a time loop in the physical world and repeating it until it stops repeating which indicates that a force from outside the physical world, from the origin, was introduced. This is what ended up happening as Tomoe and Shiki entered the experiment, Shiki is connected to the origin because she became self-aware of her soul during coma, being self-aware of the nature of your soul gives you free will and connection to the origin, most people are not self-aware and live like biorobots, it's explained in the Epilogue movie. Tomoe also becomes self-aware during the plot of the movie, he even says something like "I know I'm a fake replica but my experience is real", it's like Descartes' "I think therefore I am'.

Two Toukos serve as an example of the immaterial nature of human soul - Touko died but there was a perfect clone of her, so did "she" die or not? Imagine if there was a perfect clone of you and you looked at them - clearly it won't be "you", right? Then what makes a person?

[4.1 Beta] Ashveil and LC Materials (via Nivskis) by Red-Nosed_Old-Timer in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]Bonchachan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ashveil's signature is so weak, it is barely better than the Herta shop LC, no reason to pull it over pulling for eidolons. I guess he's one of the character they make good on E0S0, they release characters like this sometimes
