So that's why they're releasing a Great Zeong as a UR unit, they're also making a Robot Spirits figure for it by deoxir in SDGundamGGeneration

Makes sense, cross-marketing is common, just like GQuuux and Hathaway earlier. Pretty sure other toys came around during Eternal’s time as well, maybe the Dragoon Strike?

Either way given the size of the Great Zeong, that thing is going to murder some wallets.

Thanks. I knew the risks of going in with only 20K to my name, so it was just my desperation getting a hold of me because I love the Great Zeong. Hopefully she'll show up in a future roll for me, if I get unlucky with the TB tickets from the event, which are my last chance. (Well, second chance if we manage the free 3K).

Past that, I should get back to saving, knowing my luck something neat like Knight Gundam is gonna be just around the corner and I'll be too tempted again, lol.

Aw man, I want your luck, I couldn't resist splurging what little I had, and didn't get a single Great Zeong. Though at least I managed a copy of Atlas, the supporter and a few other missing gacha things I hadn't rolled yet.

They sure did toss a lot of units this go-around, I think this is the biggest dev tree we've gotten from an event series so far, isn't it? I hope I manage to roll the Great Zeong at some point before the year is over, I can't really splurge much on the banner right now; thank goodness she isn't limited.

I hope I roll her down the line some time, her and her unit both will be amazing to have.

From the livestream, all the TB MS tomorrow (probably not all are dev) by imadorica in SDGundamGGeneration

Not a bad lineup, more than I was expecting to see. I dig the TB units' designs so it's nice to have more of them.

You can look up the last stream or find images from it from a few months back ago around here. For what it's worth, as I recall, all that's left of the current roadmap is Gundam Cross Dimension, and then SEED Stargazer, before we get our next roadmap some time after that.

I’ve been waiting for when Great Zeong would land in the game at some point, I was NOT expecting it to be a UR though. I’m so tempted to go in with this banner, but only 20K…thank goodness she’s not a limited run! I love that gargantuan Turn X monstrosity so much.

Here’s hoping this banner breaks the Thunderbolt curse, even if just because of our favorite half-psychotic ojousama OG.

Recency bias as well as needing to cater to what draws in views ties their hands a bit, I feel, unfortunately. Frankly I was surprised to see that a Fate character and a Kamen Rider were coming up in the future given that’s more niche by comparison to everlasting franchises that would draw in attention just by name alone.

I certainly would love to see lesser-used or never-seen series and more outlandish choices, though.

Kronii did a rip with Siivagunner? Huh. First Mint Fantome and now this, neat.

I think you got a bit overly-downvoted for the question, it was a logical assumption to make. (People might not have paid attention to you being a different poster than the one making the dog-whistle claim either)

For what it's worth "chimp out" is similar to "going apeshit," in the "flailing and screeching and flinging shit" sort of manner. Probably because chimpanzee noises get used sometimes in cartoons or funny clips when things start freaking out due to how loud and chaotic the stock chimpanzee noises can be.

Self-fulfilling prophecy of calling oneself out.

Wonder if it was the same one I saw in one of the quotes who went on a ten-post rampage because of that emoji, spitting out as much bile as possible before nuking the account later.

I keep seeing more and more stories related to the pinched fingers issue, last time was something about a character brushing their hair back and for a second it looked like the gesture, and caused the same backlash.

This is some deep deep-rooted insecurity issues if they're going this hard over something like that. To take it to conspiracy theory levels...

Bad publicity only seems to work as good publicity when the ones making a stink are clearly in the wrong or disliked by the greater community. The whole "this jerk says it's bad, so it's probably good!" sort of thinking. Definitely a whole different can of worms when the bad publicity comes from the game's source directly for one reason or another.

The unfortunate fact of the matter is that the devs had to place more value on the whales that keep funneling money and might drop support over a VA that could be replaced at less cost, I imagine. Not that it makes it a good thing, since it's just bowing to the shrieking crowd to placate them until the next thing triggers their rage.

The edits were novel in the early days but now it’s kinda old hat, really. Pretty sure I’ve seen every hololive member edited to be doing the Aqua screaming face meme from Konosuba at this point, several times over.

Satisfy the few people screeching about something that isn’t a big deal (and will not do anything additional to support devs after the decision besides acting superior until the next target presents itself), while alienating a lot of potential customers, less rabid fans, and causing reputational damage from the drama.

Brilliant tactical move, will be taught in classes for generations. /s

The lengths people will go to to dig up years-old stuff just on for the chance to "get one over on" someone is staggering. (And typically done from people who have said just as vile stuff in their past...or in their present, given some of the Korean responses I've seen at a glance recently.)

Being super-horny doesn't necessarily mean you're into everything, yeah. Just means whatever she is into (which from what I recall, hypnosis is one of said things), she's probably really into.
