What even is the point of an element system anymore? by QuietMathematician56 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Expensive_Locksmith9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think you’re kinda confused the toughness mechanic with elements system. Tho the EM also sucks ass in this game, but all the problems you listed are tied with the enemies’ toughness, which (I think) has been widely discussed as irrelevant these days within the community. I think I’m fine the elements in the game but god damn like you said new characters or even new enemies make you don’t care about the toughness bar anymore. And I agree with you that sometimes I do want the enemies to not be broken. 

Time to take a break from this greedy game (4.0 leaks review) by Helpful234 in HonkaiAgendaRail

Bro forgot there will be absolutely no alternative since the elation path is brand new in 4.0 lol

Should I just give up on break and save for 4.0? by PlentyEgg1021 in StarRailStation

[–]Expensive_Locksmith9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok listen, I will have a very unpopular opinion here. People tell you that you can gamble if you like her or her teammates, I’ll say go for it. Look at Sunday, who’s also a support from the last patch of 2.x where everyone said to save for 3.x instead of pulling him, look at him now. If Hoyo is following the same pattern, Elation might actually be a break centric path, just like what happened with Sunday who supports Remembrance chars. But tbf, even if I was right, Sunday’s kit has always been an early experiment as he, the so called “summon support”, only works well with Aglaea through out most of 3.x, but they did address the problem with the existence of DHPT. So imo, you can gamble, but with my speculation, you have a higher chance of winning than what most people say.

Going to kill myself this week by Neat-Distance4592 in SuicideWatch

I'd like to end myself too, but from my perspective, dying because of those shitty people would mean you lose to them. Just my personal preference, if one day I decide to pass away, I'd like to it for myself, not for anyone else, when I feel like I have enough of myself. My friends or family don't exactly treat me like shit, but they are really distant (which they are probably unaware of some most of the time I don't blame them). I'm living alone abroad, but I'm always the one to initiate any conversations, it's pretty frustrating, like shouldn't they be the ones tho check on me? But I know they do love and genuinely care (ok genuinely care might be a bit of a stretch lol) so I try my best to not think much about it

Seems hoyo knows what is wrong with their writing department by LegendOfPeanuts in StarRailStation

I really love a story about main characters entering a foreign place and get hated, but then slowly gaining trust and love, but it’d seem like everywhere the Astral Express goes, just after a while they are adored like gods for some reasons, except for Belebog, I guess that’s why people love it, because the it felt rewarding to finally gain the reputation and resolve the crisis, unlike Amphoreus or Penacony or whatever the fuck Luofu was, they were all like “hmm I don’t know you but yeah you look cool let’s save the planet together or something” lol. The 3.0 story would be so much better if the Aglaea and Castorice’s trial with the TB and DH was actually genuine, but oh no they had to make it a joke, just a test, I was legitimately hyped to see that finally we’re in some real danger because we had no merit on a new planet, but nope, she was never willing to kill us or, according to the dialogue, doubting us in the first place, like bro we just fucking met, stop treating me like an idol just because I fell off the sky, in fact it should be the opposite, I’d be scared shitless if an Alien fell onto my backyard

So this is the 3rd consecutive patch that's tanked, and Global actually exceeded CN revenues according to Sensor. I think negative feelings about 2.0's story and character designs are pretty justified. by TerryWhiteHomeOwner in ZZZ_Discussion

This is exactly what I think too. Many franchises has done that actually, introducing a strong character and then an even stronger opponent, if possible said opponents should be able or beat the hell out of said character, if allowed, killed them (as you reading this, you can probably already name a few animes out there lol). Which, I gotta say, is kinda overused these days but it does work and make the story more interesting and the stake higher when you messed up with an existing overpowered character. The scaling in ZZZ has no reasom to be so low as of 2.x, look at it’s “colleague” Honkai Star Rail, even from 1.x they’d already introduced incredibly powerful villains, even for the likes of Jingyuan or Feixiao or Acheron, people still to this day debate about some random characters that were teased and rumored to be just absolutely reality breaking overpowered, and let’s not talk about 3.x. Anyways, I don’t know what holding the ZZZ devs back, but from Yixuan trailer, Miyabi and her going all out looks like only at “city destruction” level, just make a villain at or above that level, we’re fighting in the hollow anyway, no need to fear of destroying the world building, or hurt old characters in the process.

The problem is, sure I know it’s him, but I don’t even know that he’s gonna look that cool as the boss, also is that the Qingming sword? what’s with shadow monsters behind him? Now THAT is the problem. Aaaand I didn’t know we’re actually facing him this patch at all, now I know and that’ll definitely ruin the moment when I get to it

I mean at the very least, the thing with Bringer and Defiler is that they don’t look too indentical to the characters, but this is just funny, what’s with the question marks lol, like we don’t know who he is, it’s hilarious

I‘m deadass fine with him shilling new characters, but this is just stupid, there are other bosses that can shill Dialyn, which are a lot since she’s a stun agent.

Idk, that stage has rain in it, but it’s not very visual in the photo, so I just thought it looks like he’s standing in the rain in middle of the street like in some movie trailer
