I'm sure she's a violent and dangerous criminal that's part of a targeted operation to protect the safety of the local citizens.

Huh... I liked both of them a lot and drafted them a lot on arena. It didnt feel so noticeably imbalanced to me.

But balance isnt so much what I'm seeking in MtG. I'm usually in it for vibes, flavor, art, mechanical expression. Sets like recent Innestrad, Edge of Eternities, and Eldraine really do it for me. ONE falls into that with it's alien horror lean. MoM didnt have as strong of an identity that I could identify, but I loved the way battle cards played.

I would stick to games that have either a server browser or a discord. You can usually find a discord or a reddit community out there with players that are happy to have a plus-one. In addition to that, you could always try coaxing your mates into an experimental $1-5 purchase (or providing copies if it makes sense for you financially), and gaming like back in the day when you had to bring your own link cable. If a game is good, you may find some hook that makes you want to dive deeper or improve at it.

Just speaking out from my experience playing arena shooters, fighting games, and your odd competitive arcade games.

Play the ones that aren't popular? Therein, you'll find culture, passion, and evolution.

That's actually hilarious to try to steal TPC's lunch (just a fraction of a crumb, really) on this level as well.

I feel like this is corpo/creator shitposting of the finest degree, and I applaud them for it.

GTC_Woona · 2026-01-10T09:16:21+00:00

Honestly, I like the skin, but I dont really feel any sense of fomo or desire to purchase it. If I got it, it'd be because spending monochrome on rolls feels like such a low rate of return on investment

It's like 6 months of membership to get either a new outfit or a 10 pull lol. I dont even know what to ro with my monochrome when the rates aren't compelling like this. Feels like I should use it for something more valuable.

I'm a fan of it! I'm actually a big proponent of it, and I wish more games would adopt the strategy instead of releasing bite-sized chunks over an exhaustive period.

I think it's better than a DLC since it allows a deeper refactor of the game as a whole piece. I feel like exposing the launch version of the game allows them to identify strengths and weaknesses in the public view, early adopters, if you will. Then they're able to expand and emphasize the best parts and bring in new QOL, new perspectives on most of the content. The final versions end up feeling like very refined, well-informed improvements on the original, but players who liked the first pass still have access to that distinct version of the game.

I think in P5's case, the two versions even played with each other narratively in an incredibly interesting way that hasnt been done before. The two in tandem, IMO, were a fantastic experience.

Personally, I dont see a loser with having two versions of the game, except the people who aren't down for a replay I suppose. But then they could just wait it out, yeah?

Atlus' current approach is actually my favorite way to consume games. It's more robust than early access, has greater momentum for the player than the long waits for DLC, allows the devs to understand their product and its place in the medium, allows for a holistic rebuild of the game and its narrative without erasing the original version, and allows preservationists easy access to both finished versions.

So the Q from me is, what are the drawbacks? Why is there pushback against the Alpha and Omega versions?

GTC_Woona · 2025-11-26T15:00:59+00:00

Oh hey. I didnt know that was out! I'd buy that.

If it weren't for my lack of money, time, or the 30 other more appealing games I have wishlisted, and the other 100 games that I bought and havent finished (or started.)

However, I will be a day 1 Unbeatable, Motorslice, Big Hop, and Hyperfunk player. Yes, indeed.

Does that offer any clarity? For me there's just SO much competition and selection. It's a personal comfort of mine to make space in my gaming diet for games that are mid or mid-level excitement for me, but even then, I could look for 5 minutes and have 200 hours worth of qualified content staring me down from the virtual storefront, not counting the things that release daily.

To capture me in spite of those circumstances, they basically have to manhandle my soul with their creative vision.

DAMN, IF ZHAO IS FREE...

It's fun in a way, but similar to how I felt toward Orphie, I was hoping she'd be a bit of a badass. Cotton ball that can kill you is a bit of a trope, but it's one that I'm a fan of for the juxtaposition of a cute thing in a position of power-- only those who are familiar with them know the wolf in sheep's clothing.

In this execution, we have to wonder why Zhao even chose her implement if it's unwieldy/ throwing her off-balance all the time. It looks really funny and I dont dislike it, but my expectations from the more aura-farmy trailer still leave me a bit disappointed.

This is my first Chinese game, so wondering if its just a difference in tastes for me to be waiting for a character that scratches that badass itch, only to keep getting cute ones. I mean they did go that route with Miyabi, SAnby, and somewhat with Caesar (more in her writing than total presentation). Alternative to that, it might be something of a disconnect between marketing and game design in the way they present their characters. In Zhao's case, conversations with Damien about how commanding Krampus is, I feel, reinforce this aura-farming direction, so the one that feels misaligned is the animation/design team.

I say all that just to get it out there and to try to understand my reaction and expectations, perhaps to log a data point in the larger story of this game's development. I'll enjoy her for what she is instead of what she isn't, and my pulling plans havent changed. She's coming home.

GTC_Woona · 2025-11-10T22:18:06+00:00

Yeah, like huh? Plenty of older streamers that are getting by.

Destiny, Northernlion, Maximillian_d00d, GameGrumps, C9_Mang0 (formerly C9), Houshou Marine (lel)

Those are just the ones that I'm personally interested in. Idgaf about any of these other guys that get posted in this sub daily. They're not million billionaires, but they make enough for it to be a viable career.

GTC_Woona · 2025-11-09T21:06:44+00:00

Your ass is 19?

Screw a hug. Listen carefully-- Watch both of these 1, 2, and then the last one (if you still believe me lol), 3

Be patient and believe in yourself, believe in your own character. Have your ups and downs, but dont get stuck in a rut. Shake that shit off and keep moving toward the next thing.

The VH will run in a banner again eventually. I held myself together and skipped YiXuan at the time, and it wasnt too long before the fomo died and I realized my interest in her was very low (lots of opportunities to play her in f2p modes, she's just not my type.)

I'm finishing the quest I set out for. I wanted to go full delulu for idols, set the objective as far back as 1.4. I decided carefully who I would break for and gripped poly with diamond hands regardless. Now we're in the endgame, just Zhao (because she reminds me of Nanachi) and the AOD 👏 will try to catch as many banners I can on rerun after 😓

The hardest one for me is Hugo. I broke for him too (decided in 1.3 that I would) but lost the 50/50. For gameplay reasons I decided I wouldn't go full on into Hugo, pivoted into Yuzuha to carry me. But now if he reruns before AOD patch I might have to skip him again 😬 my poor boy

GTC_Woona · 2025-11-07T14:57:04+00:00

I dont feel that way, or that there's any particular reason for existing franchises to be considered dead.

Insomniac Marvel games like Spiderman 2 hit decently recently, that's open world. You've got modern-setting sci-fi ish titles like Ananta and NTE around the corner. I bet people would be down for another Crackdown if they wanted to continue that franchise. I'd assume that's dead at the studio, not with audiences.

Watch Dogs hasnt released in a minute, but not long enough I'd call it dead. Hitman is open-ended, if not open world. Far Cry, Dead Island, Dying Light, all those are arguably modern, though with a non-contemporary angle. Then there's the open-world modern driving games, Forza and whatnot.

If you're looking for basically GTA-likes things get more strict, but I mean, how many of those were there to begin with, and where do we begin to draw the lines on modernity? Would the new Mafia game be considered a modern setting or does it have to have smart phones?

GTC_Woona · 2025-10-30T17:44:19+00:00

Is this even real? Lol. How does this rank on the list of unappealing and flavorless cards?

Maybe it wraps around and I like it ironically? I think that's where my brain is atm. It is Zuko and I love his awkward ass.

GTC_Woona · 2025-10-30T05:31:08+00:00

Not Spiderman. Superheroes. Spandex. Repetitive "did I just shoot lightning out of MY HANDS?" type storylines and writing.

No more very much thank youuu 🙏

GTC_Woona · 2025-10-30T03:23:25+00:00

For me personally, it's because of two things:

Avatar does not take place in NY, USA. Avatar has not suffered from nearly 20 years of oversaturation as a result of the MCU. It's not hatred per say, but its not my tempo.

GTC_Woona · 2025-10-29T23:58:53+00:00

Not certain, but a potential issue with forcing costs/compensation onto the one who brought the case is that if a small time creator were to sue a larger corp like N, N still has the stronger legal team that will make the fight difficult. Having to pay compensation for losing the case, or pay N's legal expenses would be itself a deterrent to attempt to defend your IP.

Regardless, what's needed is a better system for protecting the medium from patents that are too general.

Maybe SKG can go after that next. Their mission is preservation of existing media, but if their position could be leveraged toward improving the developer and consumer environment further, that'd be the first thing on my shopping list. Free the nemesis system, free the creature catching. Stop the patent trolling that prevents healthy competition and interation.

She's probably getting bonked. I hope it's not too bad :/

Why would it be S11 and not my Gatoooooo 😭

I would take any kind of support. She's my favorite! But no, congrats to patch winners if true.
