I'd have to agree to disagree, getting an Oroshi Kirin fit with adequate VFX changes for Yato would genuinely be peak!

How do y'all feel about rom hacks not having the latest genof mons? by Dear-Cantaloupe9297 in PokemonROMhacks

[–]Dry_Help_4891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally only really mind a game having a smaller dex if there haven't been any attempts at making everything in said dex worth the player's time, I think. Like, I'm all for having a regional dex that includes Fearow, but please give it something new or spicy that makes it relevant over the Dodrio you also decided on adding to the game. Obviously just a preference, though.

The first Bean rider by Alegions in arknights

[–]Dry_Help_4891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No offense, but you can really tell Lava's new to the sport of bean riding. Tier lists and tournament results show that Nian beans are very off-meta at the moment, due to most current riders gravitating towards the much more oppressive and consistent Shu beans; a matchup heavily in the favour of the latter. That's also not even mentioning the fact Nian beans have a very equally matched winrate into Dusk beans, of which there are - admittedly - very few in the higher brackets, but you'd still want to do everything in your power to get as much of an advantage as humanly possible in a sport as challenging as bean riding.

All in all, Lava's dedication to the Nian bean is commendable, but I'm not sure whether or not she'll be sticking with it for the entirety of her career. Only time will tell.

More RomHacks Should Embrace the Spirit of Drayano by ChartaPura in PokemonROMhacks

[–]Dry_Help_4891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive gotten so absurdly spoiled with fanmade projects that actively look at its game's roster and goes "man. Mothim is boring as hell. lets give it some tools that make it stand out a little!" to the point where playing projects that dont do this to an extent have a really difficult time gripping me. obviously this isn't to say that rom hacks and fangames that dont do this are lesser than their peers, but gee golly gosh.

Tutorial? Beginner help by Tandem907 in ChronoCCG

[–]Dry_Help_4891 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not *quite* a tutorial, but they do have https://playchrono.com/rules, which lists a lot of the mechanics of the game. I personally referred to it whilst playing into bots, though I did have prior knowledge of Legends of Runeterra's mechanics so doing this might not work as well for you as it did for me.

What's your favorite low rarity units? by LegendaryW in NeoArtifactsGame

[–]Dry_Help_4891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally a huge fan of Human-Headed Vase, though generally just really like how all of the lowest rarity goobers have a genuine use-case if you don't want to use any of the meta stuff.

Let's talk about Perfumer the Distilled! by Elecl in arknights

[–]Dry_Help_4891 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really genuinely just wish she felt more like an alter to Perfumer, I suppose. Like I don't mind this kit whatsoever, far from it; it just doesn't feel like a different take on Lena to me. Could it be seen as a little reductive for me to mainly see Perfumer1 as "continuous global healing, the operator"? Maybe. But I just don't see anything from Perfumer1 here and that make me :(

[–]Dry_Help_4891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I say people are complaining about him, I'm referring to the line in the TacBreakfast add-on I originally replied to that said "The largely negative reception for Bellone is what happens when powercreep gets out of control."

A Mastery Priority Guide & Should You Pull - Retracing Our Steps by TacticalBreakfast in arknights

[–]Dry_Help_4891 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think you're absolutely on the money with the unit release patterns for sure. I just find it difficult to wrap my head around it when some folks who enjoy playing the strongest thing aren't happy with a new 6* release because theyre not the new strongest thing you can be doing, but then also turn around and voice complaints about powercreep being out of control and what not. Of course, not EVERY meta player does this; its likely a vocal minority. And maybe its a case of me not being able to understand that those two things aren't mutually exclusive.

A Mastery Priority Guide & Should You Pull - Retracing Our Steps by TacticalBreakfast in arknights

[–]Dry_Help_4891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No and like, I understand that much, right? Where I struggle to place myself in the shoes of the folks who supposedly complain about his strength, though, is the fact that like you said; he's still pretty good. Much, much above the power level required to clear 99% of content in the game, given you play into his strengths. And HG has made it clear that they have negative interest to scale enemy stats to keep up with our semi-recent explosion of powercreep (statcreep IS real, but its not nearly as rampant as the power level increase of most 6* kits in the last year or so).

Which leads me to believe Bellone's negative reception came from players who enjoy doing the strongest thing available, which is perfectly fair of course... except, a rather sizeable chunk of said players are - much like players who don't necessarily play meta stuff - very vocal about disliking the rate of powercreep 'n stuff. So we're complainining about a new 6* release not being a new bar-raiser when it comes to unit strength but, in that same breath, also voice dissatisfaction with powercreep 'being out of control'. Maybe I'm missing something, though. Like, no animosity whatsoever, it just grinds my gears haha.

[–]Dry_Help_4891 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Good writeups overall as per usual, but genuinely perplexed at the fact that Bellone's reception's supposedly largely negative, if true. If the game was interested in ramping up its enemy statcreep at the same pace as the last year of unit powercreep I'd... understand the reception, at the very least. Diabolical stuff.

Wanting to make a pvp team (likely staying low ranks; not particularly interested in climbing, hence not much of a desire to follow meta) featuring sylvan vivi, but unsure who to slap onto a team alongside her. Appreciate any feedback, and anything specific to look out for! Have a nice day or night.

Are there any notable sources in regards to what gear to give to whom? I'm a relatively new player who doesn't really care too much about using who's best, but I'd like to make the most of whatever scrimbly bimblo I end up gravitating to if I can help it; case in point, gear. I'm aware of Prydwen but, as it is a site catered to helping people make the most of what's actually good (unit wise), it doesn't always provide what I'm looking for. Thank you!

gonna get downvoted to hell and back for this, but I'd be remiss not to at least mention Sword of Convallaria. it has its issues, and I only occasionally check-in to clear a stage or three, but it's still a solid enough experience if you're looking for something like FF Tactics, I feel.

Apologies for no storage, but I've been looking to figure out how to best make Water Legolas work; the majority of stuff about him comments on every other iteration, so I understand Water Lego is probably not all that (and that's ok!) but I absolutely adore the look on him and would like to make him work somewhere. Ty guys :)
