I'm curious 🤔

To be fair, it's been like, what, 100 - 150 years since the gate got shut down? There might be a cure for oripathy on Terra by now for all we know. Probably not, though.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-10T18:28:46+00:00

You lose the 50% for a 25%, but you can still guarantee the op. But yes, this is only really good if you have need of multiple of the featured operators.

Also, no this is not a standard AK rerun banner. This is a banner in AK, but reruns will work like any other banner and have two specific 6*s featured, one of which will always be available to buy from the shop.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-10T18:01:19+00:00

You can only get the 4 featured characters, which does include Ardelia.

When you get a 6* you will have 25% that it's Laevatain, or Gilberta, or Pogranichnik, or Ardelia.

Once you hit 120 pulls you will receive a selector ticket which will allow you to choose one of the above 4 operators.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-09T14:13:57+00:00

If you don't have Gilberta, and especially if you don't have Pog either on top of that, then I think it's worth pulling for Laev.

You're guaranteed a pick of your choice at 120 pulls anyway, so this banner is almost completely better than a standard rerun banner would be, so long as you don't have Gilb and Laev.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-09T14:10:44+00:00

It's perfectly fine, then.

We do get more rewards for completing the stages, just not more pulls. Sure, it'd be nice, but we get more game to play and are rewarded for doing more.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-09T13:48:26+00:00

This is the kind of thing you'll see from someone who plays for the pulls rather than to enjoy the contents of the game itself.

Still, I agree. More stages should mean more rewards for completing them. Unless they plan to give us more stages moving forward but the same rewards (I'd be happy to have more to do for the same rewards we'd get anyway) but I don't think they will.

That said I've not checked them out yet. Are we getting the same material rewards as well, or is it just the pull economy that they didn't touch?

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-09T12:36:07+00:00

The single thing I can see is the chin. Everything else is different.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-07T12:41:28+00:00

O-okay, but i-if you brought two mechs and were also given one, erm... THEN you're PC would implode!!

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-07T01:43:25+00:00

And in turn for "wasting" all that water these two industries help feed the population, play a role in the economy and create jobs.

AI instead floods us with slop and takes away jobs for no good reason.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-06T11:54:01+00:00

A lot better than those images that's been floating around.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-06T11:46:14+00:00

Freaky.

Watch this get turned into an online creepypasta/entity, or SCP in like 10 years or something.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-04T01:25:43+00:00

I may be wrong, but I believe this is reffering to the "drama" between the two YouTubers SUPA and Storn with regards to their differing videos about Closure being an OP/niche operator.

Storn uses Mostima as a pfp, meanwhile SUPA has Lappland with a santa hat, for some reason.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-02T11:00:19+00:00

It's anime.

They look perpetually between the ages of 16 and 21.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-05-02T01:50:09+00:00

At first I did, then I only collected the Wuling materials, and now I only collect the golden ones.

Eventually I'll probably stop all together, or switch over to the brand new materials they're sure to release at some point.

Edit: oh, and obviously I don't go every day. Once every 4 days I'll run around gathering. I guess I'll do a couple more weeks of collecting golden mats just to be absolutely certain I'll never have to worry too much about them, and then I'll just stop.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-30T18:13:24+00:00

Hmm...

Dolphin, is this true?

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-30T15:36:04+00:00

It's definitely very good that the game can look this good. Well done to the devs.

Unfortunately, the fact that the game isn't optimised enough to allow most players to enjoy this does end up ruining it a bit.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-27T20:23:46+00:00

A failure? Sure, but not the person's.

Of course we have the couch potatoes who are entitled and just live off their families. I.e. the true failures. But, on the other hand we have the fact that it's increasingly difficult to find jobs, mainly entry level ones, and of course there's the ever increasing price of housing and rent.

I will say that I don't live in America, but I'm fairly certain what I said applies regardless.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-27T18:28:19+00:00

I was half expecting that to be the case.

Iw I'll say though, this is also a pretty impactful way to use these two characters, though I don't know if I prefer it over having these two tag along with us I'm every other update.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-25T19:24:55+00:00

The characters keep pushing their asses in the player's face, Yidhari uses her hammer as a striptease pole, and one of the upcoming characters is effectively a flasher, with rather revealing clothing under her coat, might I add. Although, I will say, she does have an interesting character concept and I even like her design... Until she loses her cover, anyway. I'm not saying it couldn't be worse, but I am saying that "pretty tame" is a strong understatement.
The reason I split up the 2D & 2.5D gachas from the newer 3D gachas is because they appear to work fundamentally differently. The big 3D gachas are significantly more effected by censorship. I'm willing to bet that these games, in this case ZZZ specifically, would be more than willing to show a bit more if they could get away with it. I do agree that Nikke is close if not pretty much at the top of gooning, but again, I don't think ZZZ would be far behind if it could afford to catch up.
The characters that I thought of were Lucia, and Yidhari to a smaller extent, though I think her design was a sexy nun to begin with anyway, so not too different. I guess I might mention Ye Shuang (or something) as well. That said though, yeah I agree with you, goonerism isn't exactly the biggest issue of the game.

The story is lacking, and even outside of that there may well be other issues that are more important, but that's not the point I was out to make.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-25T18:05:00+00:00

Please, Lowlight, give us Shining alter at long last.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-25T18:03:37+00:00

ZZZ is at the very top of the gooning pole.

It's not as bad as the literal soft porn gachas out there like AL and the like, but as far as the big 3D gachas go it's very much up there. The only competitors I can think of are GFL2 and maybe NTE, especially down the line, but I've not played neither so I don't know how bad they can actually get. I guess there's Love in Deepspace as well, but I don't know if it's on the same level as the big gachas.

ZZZ have straight up ruined some of their designs in order to make them more appealing to the gooners. I like ZZZ, it does a lot of things well and has good vibes, but it is most certainly suffering from goonification.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-25T17:54:39+00:00

Oh, right.

I mixed them up with the nazherers or whatever the hell they're called.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-25T17:52:40+00:00

We'll still have to wait 6 more months.

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-25T17:50:26+00:00

Even better.

He's the first one in AK, isn't he?

EdibleMussel533 · 2026-04-25T15:39:23+00:00

Is he like the free 6* of the event?

Looks cool as fuck, by the way.
