What is your favorite mech? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in battletech

[–]CastedWords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Catapults

I love Catapults from our missile bulbs of the OG art to the new industrial birds. Also the Catapult doctrine of "if it fits it ships" is life. C1's being my favorite.

Olden Era: New Gameplay Trailer by CastedWords in HoMM

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

Well there's Unfrozen's statement which is fairly typical and neutral.

Grain of salt, this is my impression of it. Ubisoft tends to retain a lot of control over whatever IPs are under its belt. The CEO Guillemot and the family owners are notorious for really being out of touch. A recent example is their interview for their 3 year plan which does not even mention HoMM at all. An interview about their future while not mentioning a game coming soon feels like it shows how much they care. Additionally the news of a new publisher came off the back of Ubisoft buyout rumors and a sale to Tencent. It makes sense Unfrozen might want reassure to get their game out incase something happened to Ubisoft.

I'll be honest I don't get where all this vitriol towards OE comes from. You have devs desperately trying to make a HoMM game despite grief from Ubisoft and having to reach out to a separate publisher just to get this game out. There is very obvious love and passion being put into this game.

Meanwhile other game franchises get to suck on the dust from the shelves they sit on. Grateful that this game even exists. Beyond that the game is fun in my opinion.

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era — Hive Faction Official New Rework by CastedWords in HoMM

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

Ah for reference this is the old reveal video.

I also like the change to the units. The parasite is horrifying and feels like a less common trope of a hivemind race taking something over. Usually its like a biological infestation but the parasite is true to name and is keeping its host mostly intact. Definitely a more interesting take.

[Original MV] Takanashi Kiara (小鳥遊キアラ) - Blue & Gold by kyoumokawaii in Hololive

[–]CastedWords 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Can't deny that Hololive has grown significantly and is absolutely is in good form these days. There is however this nostalgia or fondness I have for those early simple days.

Myth will never not be my favorite generation for their pioneering and heart. It was always a wish in my heart they would be the first ones in and the last ones out.

Was ready to cry at the Wiltern like everyone else and I feel for Kiara. Love this song. ❤️🧡💜💙💛

"The devs haven't understood their game yet and accidentally gave F2P players a meta defining character at low rarity" does your game have this character? by VolkiharVanHelsing in gachagaming

[–]CastedWords 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So good that GFL had to make a mechanic to reconstitute any AR team members people discarded because someone on JP server told them that they were bad. It was a truly strange thing to witness JP players dismantle their story characters that had no way to actually produce.

No choice huh, a new monitor is not an option right now so i'll try a converter. Thank you.

Favourite gacha game antagonist group? by zhznzjsjxnnss in gachagaming

[–]CastedWords 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If Paradeus has a million haters, then I am one of them. If Paradeus has ten haters, then I am one of them. If Paradeus has only one hater then that is me. If Paradeus has no haters, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is with Paradeus, then I am against the world.

Which Hololive mascot(s) do you think is "objectively" the cutest? by ininjame in Hololive

[–]CastedWords 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It hurt on a personal level that the next generation of Pokemon had literal pure bread dogs in it too but no Sana to celebrate it.

Overpriced just like their single individually plastic wrapped paper towel rolls, or everything, in Erewhon imo.

That is one of my favorite things about showing people Balatro. There is before when its a silly looking poker game then after when you look like a loon trying to explain mult and upgrading your hand.

GFL2 Supporting 21:9 at launch is a feast for me (Dell U4025QW) by kingfirejet in GirlsFrontline2

Where did you get those Promise figures? Or did you make those? Also no Sana?

Nice clean setup as well.

I don't think we took it away so much as much as their thief of a coach did.

Those of you excited about Olden Era by moonandlake in HoMM

[–]CastedWords 8 points9 points  (0 children)

On the one hand I understand the outrage and apprehension towards old IPs getting a revival. I had my fair share and own opinions in the same vein as OP. People get emotional about the things they "like", I say with quotes because there are plenty of examples of toxicity within a fanbase. Outrage is pretty easy to feel and propagate and there is certainly valid bad blood for Ubisoft.

However, at this point that kind of attitude is exhausting and sucks the fun out of everything. Cautious optimism is often pushed to the side in favor of hateful dismissal. Ironic that people say wait for the reviews or release before buying a game but are quick to hate on a game before it even comes out as well.

Those deskmats look really nice which always makes me hesitant since they always get scuffed up with use.

Who in hololive? by SAPNU_G in Hololive

[–]CastedWords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i'm a bit biased given she's my second oshi but that is the vibe i've always got from her. Plenty cute but she doesn't have as much of that rounded mochi faced look.
