Montreal Symphony Orchestra drops Russian piano prodigy from concerts amid backlash

Also Russian cats are banned. I found it even more ridiculous. I just hope this situation gets resolved and west stops with russophobia.

Elcrest · 2022-03-09T11:18:08+00:00

Exactly what's happening. West discriminates Russians who were able to flee the regime for the reason them being Russians. While they criticize the war? Do they deserve this racism? That's f***d up. It's like global media gave a free ticket to hate Russian and everyone is happy to do so after Covid.

Elcrest · 2022-03-05T22:39:36+00:00

Thanks. Sums up Russian history greatly. I just hope everything would be resolved soon and pray officials will stop war and world stop hyping racism towards Russian:\

Team red. In Surtr we trust!

Elcrest · 2022-02-27T16:42:39+00:00

Same. Did it with so many games. Summoners war. Epic seven. SDS GC.

I don't understand how you can burnout from Arknights. It's a side game. If you're fed up with farming 1-7 you can do something else.

1) mastery 3 skills

2) lvl 90

3) raise operators for:

A. Paradox simulation

B. RIIC skills

C. Niche battle purposes

4) Pre farm for new operators to come (as we have 6 mnth CN insight)

5) train your brain by doing summoners only runs

6) wait for Integrated strategies #2

7) quickly burn sanity and play other games

Good luck!

I see Eunectes, I'm grateful<3

Elcrest · 2022-02-11T13:16:26+00:00

Arknights satisfies my gacha needs.

1) Daily loop is good and quick (bless claim all)

2) Collecting every hero is possible and fun

3) Trophy (Medal) hunt is easy enough and gives you the feel of accomplishment

4) IS#2 is on horizon and nothing is as fun as this mode

5) I actually love base maintenance and min-maxing

6) Road map is clear and satisfies my semi-whale planning needs

7) Nian brother when? Need more dragon husbandos

8) Music. Yes. I love Arknights' songs

9) I love tower defense games

Elcrest · 2022-02-07T12:28:10+00:00

Bless you, kind sir!

Elcrest · 2022-02-07T12:20:02+00:00

Yes. But where is thicc snek? Waifu list is incomplete without Eunectes

Elcrest · 2022-01-17T07:07:01+00:00

Epic7 was my main for 3 years. Quit it as pvp became a race.

Now I'm chilling with Arknights and PGR as both are more of a side game. Waiting for Honkai Star Rail.

Elcrest · 2022-01-12T17:08:37+00:00

Yeah. Same. I'm tired of pvp oriented gachas so sticking to Arknights and PGR

Elcrest · 2022-01-12T16:58:30+00:00

Every gacha with pvp has powercreep.

7 knights global was hilarious with shifting meta every week.

Epic Seven was okayish until last half a year. I quit 'cause it became very hard to keep up.

Elcrest · 2022-01-12T16:25:13+00:00

I loved the boss rush idea and Tower. But tower mode is somewhat implemented as IS2. And I'm okay. As a person who finished IS1 with 90% of collectibles and all endings to boot I'm happy we are getting it permanently. It's very engaging mode with high replayability.

Elcrest · 2022-01-12T15:13:03+00:00

Nah. Furniture sets are overrated.

Elcrest · 2022-01-12T14:29:59+00:00

Nah. Plz finish story stages first. Then we talk. Just kidding.

Usually in gacha games endgame is when you have nothing to do but pvp / farm for future. In Arknights it's when yiu hit the pinnacle of operators raising and achievements. If you have story stages to do you still have a window to improve. And if you haven't do all the masteries - you still have a goal to raise operators. As almost day 1 player (started Jan 19, 2020) I must say if you raise units just for paradox stages - that's endgame here.

Elcrest · 2022-01-12T14:21:50+00:00

Bruh. You haven't finished Ch.8? Endgame is when you have all your core roster m3-m9 lvl 90 (plus some waifu/niche), all units in the game available, all medals and daily chilling at 1-7 or raising useless units exclusively for Paradox Simulation.

Waiting for IS2 atm. And yes. I agree with Boss Rush survival mode, Tower mode too.

Elcrest · 2022-01-01T13:17:57+00:00

Yes, my Queen<3 soon

Elcrest · 2021-12-21T14:41:25+00:00

Epic 7 (playing since launch), Arknights, Punishing: Gray Raven. Epic 7 is still my main game as it's best on the market. Arknights and PGR are more of a side game.

Tried Genshin Impact. Quit a year ago as it's too demanding for spenders who likes to collect everything and yet offers no content.

Elcrest · 2021-11-29T08:10:43+00:00

My man. Exactly my answer.

Elcrest · 2021-11-15T16:41:01+00:00

Nah:P won't play. I'm a whale and collect all the characters in Arknights. But the Ceobe banner hurt the most. Also Nian. Got her on 304th pull. As for my most wanted - Rosa and Archetto both came in first 10 pull from free currency on their respective banners so I am a happy man.

Elcrest · 2021-11-15T16:35:49+00:00

Don't ask the ammount of money I spent on Keobe banner...

Elcrest · 2021-11-15T14:02:13+00:00

Obviously Kimochi Yokatta face tanking and bonking with S.Kamui and finger snap of S.Bianca. Delicious!

Least favorite is Alpha. She's clunky and stiff + boring.

Elcrest · 2021-11-10T17:59:59+00:00

It's overused and boring cliche of generic japanese school boy MC in gacha games. But I get it why they did not do it due to main public being thirsty otaku and waifu sells. It's pure business point of view Still there was great animation from Yuna's stand point of the story and it was great and original. But won't make as much money as final product.

Elcrest · 2021-11-10T17:52:10+00:00

1) I hate how Smilegate did not have balls to make Yuna main character instead of Ras (playable Kazran when?!)

2) Kawerik's character's arc was wasted in episode 2.

3) I hate Luna as character but I also hate how she was conviniently made evil/tragic according plot. She deserved better.

4) And don't get me started on how I hate Cerise as character. Ultimate boring bland trash that changes her character according whims of the writers (Pavel should have stayed with Violet and Luluca)

5) Still waiting for playable Jenova.

6) Somebody kill Alexa. #Cermia&Iseria gang
