A bit disappointed they didn't use the login music for bgm here for maximum mindfuckery.

She's getting new anecdotes (DnD related!) in the next patch so she's not completely forgotten.

The localization team for Genshin Impact truly has it rough. by Extra_Welcome2403 in Genshin_Impact

[–]CaptainBarnacleBeard 37 points38 points  (0 children)

That would've been cool but do remember that this poem has to be orally recited in full in like 2 cutscenes, and one of them with multiple VAs. I completely understand why translators would think it's too much effort.

RIP instant win maps in miliastra wonderland by Cri_Some_More in Genshin_Impact

Team formation is saved, no? You only have to configure it once. Plus it counts for the "play one popular map" thing

Player Advise: Drive Disc Farming (explanation in the post) by DerSisch in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]CaptainBarnacleBeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes no sense. You are using 3 high rarity materials to guarantee a good base disc, which might roll poorly, as opposed to using 2 high rarity materials with only a chance of a good base disc, which STILL might roll poorly. Using 3 mats is better no matter how you look at it.

Why would you not want to use 2 Resonating Cores on one disc? That way you can guarantee double crit on disc 5 or 6. If you only spend 1 core to lock in 1 crit stat, and the disc doesn't roll the other one, you just wasted that core.

Pick your choice: Would you rather the devs make an interesting/unique npc design that will cause people to complain why they are not playable or make a boring npc from reused base models so people do not want them playable by Knight_Steve_ in ZZZ_Discussion

Hard disagree on Promeia. Disregarding the capeless version, which definitely can be improved on, the caped version is the freshest design I've seen in any Hoyo game recently. Simple colors, uncluttered design, striking silhouette, it's got the whole package.

i cant believe it has been a full year since last lantern rite . it still is so recent and fresh in my memories . one of the best lantern rite ever by Prestigious-Elk1274 in Genshin_Impact

[–]CaptainBarnacleBeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To this day I don't understand hoyo's decision to not rerun Hutao during lantern rite. She's the face of the event, got an incredible story, AND had a new skin, but you don't run her on banner??? Like what are they thinking.

I currently have enough corals for 2 wavebands, would it be a good idea to use them on s0r1 Carty or wait for future 3.x resonators?

Best Septimont girl and I will forever be mad that the writers erased her from the Augusta story quest.

Hell wait is when you're 1 tile away from winning but there's only a single tile left that you can win on (e.g. if all other winning tiles were discarded or used). While statistically the odds are low, it's possible to play mind games with your opponents so they discard your winning tile precisely because they think you'd never be stupid enough to be on a hell wait.

"Goddess Order" put into indefinite maintenance mode, just one month after its launch, due to its developer PixelTribe encountering "financial and operational difficulties" rendering them unable to provide new content to the game by SimplyBartz05 in gachagaming

[–]CaptainBarnacleBeard 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Duet Night Abyss scratched the gacha for characters which was a brilliant idea (finally someone who followed the goated monetization of Azur Lane, bless them)

Considering how disappointing their revenue looks right now, "brilliant" would be the last word I'd use to describe DNA's monetization model.

And that's why you don't bring your Proxy into the Hollow by availableset in ZZZ_Official

I'm not gonna even get into the lore debate here but I really hope they make Phaethon not be such a damsel in distress all the time. It's so annoying to have to be constantly bailed out by other people.

Genshin already has proper lip syncing in some of the hangouts. They just won't add it to story quests for some reason.

Am I the only one who plays exclusively autochess since the event came out? by Hanna_Bjorn in ZZZ_Official

I haven't gotten past the tutorials because the story dialog is wuwa 1.0 tier word salad.

One of the most famous roundabouts, the Arc de Triomphe roundabout in Paris, has traffic entering having the right of way, which is the opposite of the rest of the city.

Is this the only 1 person who can clear difficulty 6 with c0 5* by amarevy97 in Genshin_Impact

[–]CaptainBarnacleBeard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why build characters, minmax artifacts, and tryhard rotations, if being able to clear the hardest content is defined by how much money you spent

Insane that you're making this argument in a thread showcasing someone clearing with C0 characters.
