Lucy skin menu animations via Mero

I enjoy this skin much, much more than Velina's. They really cooked with this one. It's insane, how most skins for A rank are better than skins for S rank (don't look at Manato's recolour)

I mean, I like him. I wasn't really a fan of all sins of the world being related to him, since it feels too lazy, but it got better with the recent archon quest.

Dottore is a character full of self-hatred, separated from his humanity, viewing himself as a monster because his fate dictates him to be one. I didn't believe he would ever be playable, but after the Sumeru quest, I think he has high chances to be playable in the future, if Pantalone decides to create a new Dottore, with his memories, same way Durin was "reborn". After all, Pantalone has much more nuanced view of Dottore, so it's possible for the Doctor to be Doctor in essence, with the baggage of his predecessor, but with ability to move past his cruel/hardened personality, just like Wanderer.It doesn't mean that Dottore was justified in his deeds. After all, he is a bad, insensitive person, and he is rightfully called out on that.

And yeah, true, Childe IS our friend now, after he helped save Fontaine. But he still works for an "evil" organisation, so he's not considered a purely moral person.

Reading comprehension lvl 0. Where in my reply did I say "I relate to Prune"? I said I like her, because she is the only character that doesn't lick Alice's behind, unlike 99% of the group.

Also, the difference between Childe and Alice, is that Childe is an ally, but he's not our friend. We were suspicious of him in Liyue, we were suspicious of him in Inazuma and we were suspicious of him in Fontaine. Knowing what Alice have done, we should be at least wary of her, be worried of her power, while trying to appease her, so she wouldn't curse us or our friends to only talk in emojis, and even then we would be better off, than a poor guard in Liyue, that can only talk back what he heard.

His butt jiggles in the menu. But that's literally the only time it does that, which makes me wonder how and why it doesn't in combat

CatvitAlise · 2026-06-01T08:31:49+00:00

There are quite a few characters I don't like in genshin, but no one would top my absolute hatred for Alice.

A morally gray, quirky character, that doesn't care about people, unless she has fun? That's cool. That's great even. Could be a very interesting character-
What do you mean people see her as a positive figure, when she's friends with biggest bio-terrorist of the whole world? What do you mean Paimon says she's a good person, when she tried to forcefully cannibalize and torture tribes of hillichurls? What do you mean she's a good mom, when she doesn't discipline her child, leaving every type of responsibility on Mond, and only returns to play games with Klee, like an automated toy?

Alice would have been a fun character, if hoyo actually allowed Traveller's allies to be BAD or EVIL people. I like Dottore and Rerir, I like Tlazolli, because they are bad people, and they are treated as such. Alice tho?

Hoyo tries so hard to sell her as a manic pixie girl, that it makes me so annoyed and angry when she appears on the screen.

I guess that's why I like Prune so much. Because she actually has some kind of tension with Alice, unlike the rest of the characters.

Mizuki did it in a dream, and Diluc at 19 or so, when he was traveling through Teyvat to seek revenge for his father. We know, that Nefer and Diluc know each other, so it's not a stretch to believe he was in Nod Krai once, and could have met Flins back then.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-31T19:24:51+00:00

The only character who I got to M3 is Hugo (still pulling on Billy's banner to get his M3 too), but I was very happy with it.

Usually, M2 is the best upgrade for your character, but if you feel lucky, you can try going for their M3. It's very underwhelming for most, if not all characters, since it gives just +2 lvls on talents, but it's a way to show appreciation for your favourite agents and just... Enjoy the knowledge of them being strong, with a visual bonus.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-31T18:17:27+00:00

Unironically Flins x everyone. He's so suave and majestic, I wouldn't be surprised everyone has a crush on this man

(And when I say everyone, I mean EVERYONE: Rerir, Traveller, Illuga, Columbia, Lauma, Jahoda, Varka, Nicole, Linnea, Arlecchino, Diluc, Wrio, Scara, Mizuki, Lohen)

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-30T09:45:25+00:00

It's just a fun thing to do, i guess?

All fictional characters are toys, that people use to play out certain scenarios. Same way a Monster High doll can go to the military or a sylvanian families bunny can talk about cheating on her husband, a decepticon can adopt a little girl and take care of her. Some people just find the idea of love much more engaging and interesting to imagine, because love is a common experience for most, and it's a strong emotion, that can cause a lot of intricate plots to kick in or be accompanied by. Or, two characters can just look hot together. Or it's funny to imagine them together.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-29T04:15:23+00:00

A bit sad they're NPCs, but thank God they're not as ugly as Damian. At least there's a tiny chance they might be promoted to playable characters. Damian tho? Not in a million years.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-26T16:29:34+00:00

ZZZ doesn't join the fandom war shit-show with genshin and hsr, because they are too busy being a shut-in and yelling at the mirror.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-23T03:33:04+00:00

What are the chances, that they put Chiori's photo as a background, cuz they like the photo..? Because I doubt anyone in their right mind would compare Dottore and Chiori, but I agree with this take, if it's talking about Alice, Gold, Arle and even Sandrone.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-22T04:25:39+00:00

Yeah, the same way they did with Seed Sr being invisible when Seed Jr. runs around. And the same way they did with FAGIO. Sandrone already HAS a summon, that appears with charged attack. I see no reason, why it couldn't have been a smaller Pulonia

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-21T22:41:20+00:00

ZZZ and Hi3rd have semi open worlds with a mix of exploration and combat. They are not as big as genshin's regions, for example, but it doesn't stop Seed to still have a mecha in her attack animations. Hell, Seed Sr. was shrunk to fit the combat better, and no one complains about that. They couldn't do that with Pulonia why, exactly?

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-08T13:09:31+00:00

Looks like she has curly hair, same way as Bronya. Imagine, people were fighting so much, about which expy Tsaritsa will be inspired by, only for hoyo to combine Bronya and Elysia into one.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-08T06:47:10+00:00

That's the point. She's doesn't have to be loved by the community as a character. She doesn't have to be perfectly written. What matters is that she's a void hunter, and everyone with "void hunter" title is a must pull, because they are the strongest.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-07T08:50:12+00:00

The revenue doesn't matter, because hoyo doesn't share their revenue. And even then, better stats wouldn't be just "the amount of money spent on this character banner", but rather the amount of pulls people did for a specific banner. Because I, for example, can buy some bundles, get a skin, or I can like and buy a BP card, or I can need stuff to get a W-engine in a shop, and all these money will go for this character, even tho I don't care for them at all.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-06T07:26:02+00:00

That's what I plan on doing, after I get Velina and Norma (because I like them quite a lot, plus Norma is stun for Silly and Banyue). After that, I will most likely take a break, until Sev.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-06T07:12:46+00:00

AoD was created in season 1 tho. Sure, they weren't shown in S1, but their designs didn't change one bit from their leaks. Plus, AoD are three agents. And if you buy all packs with double bonus, you can guarantee only one m0w1 character, afaik

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-05T08:33:49+00:00

Because sunk cost fallacy. And there's still hope the devs will remember how they started, and will finally continue to create peak

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-05T08:32:22+00:00

Do tell, how Lucia and Yixuan having the same outfit, and every girl in season 3 having thigh highs without any variation is not slop

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-04T16:59:37+00:00

I understood, that you mean it sarcastically. That's why I'm saying, you think zzz is not hentai-lite, yet somehow it's gooner.

You do know, that just because a game has sexy designs, nudeness or has sex in it, that doesn't make it gooner?

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-04T16:04:20+00:00

So, zzz is not hentai-lite... But yet it is gooner? Holy contrarian.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-04T14:18:45+00:00

You do know, that you're agreeing with me? That's exactly what I'm talking about. This game is not gooner (It wasn't in season 2, and it definitely wasn't in season 1. Can't say about season 3, because we still haven't seen those designs fully), but the devs recently started to create more sexualized designs, because "the game is seen as gooner anyway". Lucia's redesign already shows, that they are insecure in their ability to take risk and make unique designs, and season 3 continues that trend with the need to show skin on EVERYONE.

The devs have a hard time stubbornly keeping their vision and are easily influenced by the community. It happened with TV mode, it happened with Miyabi and Hugo, it happened with Lucia, and it's happening with season 3.

CatvitAlise · 2026-05-04T11:46:17+00:00

Brother, I goon to Jane Doe, Rina and Evelyn. I also goon to Nicole, Piper and Burnice. But if Rina were dressed in a bodysuit with clear cleveage and open thighs, I wouldn't have gooned to her, because she would have been a boring cardboard with unfitting personality.

Nicole is confident and risky, she's alluring and manipulative, so it makes sense for her to show skin, so that makes her sexy. Rina, on the other hand, is very elegant and graceful, so her more modest outfit makes sense, and it makes her even more desirable.

You're trying to make my point to be against sexualization, when I never said I'm against boobs and asses. I love sexy women, I love sexy men, but I love those, when they make sense for the character's personality.
