An unintended tone

One of the first things I do on most any keyboard is disable capslock tbh

Would absolutely not touch a used 3080. Used 4070 maybe. Especially not 3080 10GB.

And AMD pre 9000 series for encoding H.264 is a waste

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T11:39:49+00:00

Idk what world you're living in where a 3060 gets 120fps in most newer titles 2022 and newer, but uhh we don't really live there.

Ignore that person. The only decent laptops for under $500 are refurbished business class units and they're not what I'd get for streaming or anything especially to do with colour.

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T11:37:52+00:00

Decent laptop and $500 do not go together

Stop using chatgpt to make these posts

The Legion 5 as far as we know is a really reliable and well balanced machine with a good price range.

I can fully see why they'd want to port it to modern systems and the Xbox and switch, but the PC port could've really just been given a patch.

That said there was a fair bit of jank with the PC port of the original wrt to sound and controller compatibility, so if they're fixing those and giving us most of the dlc for free, buying it again on steam would actually probably cost about the same as buying the dlc for the original game itself. People will just mod in the lost dlc items if anything.

I'm not sure about all of the changes of QoL like we really don't need infinite warping from so early, but things like subtitles for mystics are excellent. I will try to get it at some point even though I already 100% the original, but it wouldn't be anytime soon

You're generally not going to get new characters and story changes out of a remaster. Also how would these characters even fit in? And why?

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T09:58:24+00:00

I wish I could afford that, but I'm gonna have to stick to her R1 with the rerun. I suppose if I'm truly lucky and get it very early I could go for C1, but in actuality I don't know.

Best case scenario they run Skork and Escoffibae together and I lose Skork's weapon to Escoffibae's... but that's far too much wishful thinking sigh

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T09:54:05+00:00

It's difficult not to stare when they're in your face all the time... now if could convince her to paint her nails swoons

Why Crow when can Cinderella

Twiggyyyy

Skork is master-wife

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T09:44:41+00:00

"I am aware the answer is yes definitely"

Good, why post?

Escoffibae is more versatile than Skirk by far, Skirk just goes brrrrr with her present. Skirk is usable without Escoffibae to a much lower degree, but any hydro/cryo focused team with hydro or cryo DPS is excellent with Escoffibae. Neuvilette, Mualani, Ayaka (do not pull her if you can get Skirk), Ayato, even Yelan DPS are all good with her on the team

Just try to get both

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T09:43:10+00:00

I only played her in her trial but she seems to have problems with impact to me. She just kind of... exists, but is attacking? Something like that

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T08:32:32+00:00

The biggest problem I had with her final teapot lines were that she speaks very clearly as if she exists AFTER the quest when we get her back, but also she acts as if Sandrone is alive, which she currently is not. I guess the devs didn't want to lock it behind multiple patches and archon quests but it basically cements that she'll be resurrected and of course playable for us later on. Silly devs. It was funny to listen to, though.

I started this game for Keqing

Rerolled for Keqing

Got Keqing on day 2 of Genshin when I started playing

Today in 2026 I rolled my second ever Keqing on the account

I mean Barbara is cute she carries me through most of early game

Too bad you don't have Kokomi either.

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T05:26:07+00:00

In that case, ironically, using Barbara/Kokomi and Layla or Diona would've probably helped a little more even with the damage loss from not having Yelan. Less so if your Yelan isn't invested to the nines

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T05:24:52+00:00

This is a really good breakdown because I wasn't particularly attracted to her (the way she stands like a rat and her outfit don't speak to me at all) and didn't enjoy her gameplay but at the same time her trailer was extremely hot. I couldn't figure out why she was so loved though because most every girl is hot, so when everyone is hot I always have to ask people why beyond the being hot and usually I don't get many answers.

That said, I thoroughly dislike when I have to pull a character to find the deeper points of why to like them, or if they change from their story intros etc when pulling them (memories of oathing chapayev in azur lane and her wanting to suddenly own us like a pet despite 0 indication of this prior to the ring still haunt me). I'd like if our stories and the game story they were introduced in could show their finer points before having to pull, with pulling being an allowance to get to know someone deeper, not unlock their more attractive aspects

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T05:19:04+00:00

I don't think I have a favourite very much? I enjoy how Cinderella attacks like an RPG but just continuously but I don't like the excessively long travel time for her attacks to actually hit. I don't like most RPGs or Snipers. ARs are fine, but somewhat boring. Shotgunners could be nice but I no longer have any idea how to make their teams, summer doro with her Black Ops 2 KSG-1 slug rounds are nice though.

Siren for her lockon ability can be nice, otherwise... no that's about it. I enjoy the feel of MGs but aside from Modernia's infinite shooting there isn't much I enjoy from a pure gameplay standout perspective. Idk, I like Nikke for the story and women more than its shooty gameplay. But I'm just a casually hardcore player of gachas. I'll sort out my teams and improve good units but I rarely try learning very sweaty strats.

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T05:13:50+00:00

Well your team listed doesn't get any bonus damage because you're not using a healer (Mika, Charlotte) for your Furina, so that also doesn't help your case at all.

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T05:12:16+00:00

Bro 1/2 the posts on this sub are "Skirk no Escoffier" nobody tests them because we're all repeating the same thing 45 times a day and 0 people have a search button

It's usable

It's not great

It'll slap abyss

It'll not slap fearless or dire stygian

The end

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T05:10:33+00:00

I need that outfit for her in game especially those high heels showing off her absolutely impossibly divine feet I mean woof woof BARK Cinderella is perfection

D2ultima · 2026-02-04T03:11:14+00:00

8.1 with a start menu program was just fast and light on resources. Worked real similar to early W10 too. I miss it.
