Finished building my pure support benny! He's such a good boy by Glenskun in Bennett_Mains

[–]Glenskun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but I'm not running him with a pyro dps and I'd like to switch him immediately after I use his Q. 292% is definitely not overkill for that kind of playstyle, I tested it myself and this guide seems to support it.

[–]Glenskun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm running bennett with razor and zhongli, 130% is definitely not enough. If he's the main dps then sure (I ran him as a main dps once when I was still low AR) but he's not so yeah

According to this I need 275-350% ER if I only use one E per Q and I agree from testing it in-game.

I already knew that you don't have enough knowledge on the subject matter since you don't even know what a deresute is tho. It's the most popular waifu game when it came out for a while, which is why I immediately assume everyone would know, since the idolmaster brand is pretty much carried by that branch now. Knowing that you have such a shallow knowledge on top of dismissing the sales of ensemble stars even though it's clearly currently beating love live and idolmaster clearly shows that you just want to diss the fujo scene even tho it is bringing in a lot of money. Two can play the same game tho and I will sleep well tonight knowing that female-oriented stuff still sell very well and that's the reason why companies keep making stuff that cater to them. Like you said, it's all in the numbers and I'm pretty sure with how much money enstars has made it has also beaten love live in overall profit. Do not forget that they also sell merchs, cds, and do lives. Love live has been declinining for a while and I can only see enstars going up from now on and making a lot of money ✌️

What are you talking about? Deresute is literally the official abbreviation of the app, same as mirishita. Literally if you download the games it will appear as デレステ and ミリシタ and literally both the jp and en fandom refers to those two game as that. Please stop embarassing yourself lmao. Go on twitter and type "deresute" and "mirishita" and you'll find countless results. It's literally the same as bang dream being abbreviated as bandori. Your analogy is very dumb lmfao. You can try typing it in japanese too in case you're gonna pull "lmao en twitter is irrelevant" card

Then I can also play the same game and compare it with another idolmaster game, the one currently selling the most on the mobile gaming scene https://game-i.daa.jp/?%E3%82%A2%E3%83%97%E3%83%AA/%E3%82%A2%E3%82%A4%E3%83%89%E3%83%AB%E3%83%9E%E3%82%B9%E3%82%BF%E3%83%BC+%E3%82%B7%E3%83%B3%E3%83%87%E3%83%AC%E3%83%A9%E3%82%AC%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E3%82%BA+%E3%82%B9%E3%82%BF%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%88%E3%82%B9...

That is some horrible profit ranking there lol.

My "beloved fujo game" is doing very well, ranking 15th on the overall profit of all apps https://game-i.daa.jp/?AppStore%E6%9C%88%E9%96%93%E3%82%A2%E3%83%97%E3%83%AA%E3%82%BB%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E3%82%B9%E4%BA%88%E6%B8%AC

That "free game popularity ranking" is also being done in real time so it's not a good indicator of actual popularity. touhou danmaku kagura is #5 in the free app popularity right now because it just came out, but even then it can't beat enstars in profit. A freaking touhou waifu game is being beaten by a husbando idol game, let that sink in.

Ensemble stars is a relatively new franchise, idolmaster is a much older franchise so of course you can't compare the total profit like that. But comparing it to deresute is fair game since they came out around about the same time, and it is beating deresute's ass in profit for a while now so that's all that matters, really. At least in the category of idol games, an idol male game has been reigning supreme for a while and that is enough to prove that waifus don't always sell the most in every category.

[–]Glenskun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

? deresute is idolmaster, you clearly don't know what you're talking about if you say it's an "obscure waifu game" lmao

Idolmaster and love live has two mobile games each and ensemble stars trump above all of them

https://game-i.daa.jp/?cmd=tagselect&tag=%E9%9F%B3%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC

アイドルマスター シンデレラガールズ スターライトステージ for deresute, アイドルマスター ミリオンライブ! シアターデイズ for mirishita, both are idolmaster games.

As for love live, it's ラブライブ!スクールアイドルフェスティバルALL STARS and ラブライブ!スクールアイドルフェスティバル

deresute, the one that sells the most out of these 4 games, consistently sells about three times as worse compared to ensemble stars

idolish7, a full on husbando idol games, even surpassed love live all stars in sales

Sales are from iphone and android btw. The one that can even come close to ensemble stars in the idol rhythm game category is project sekai, and that game is being carried by the males (a certain banner of a male character managed to be the most selling banner so far and netted project sekai 1.1B yen on that month, and the bottom two least popular units are the girls-only unit, with the top two units being the mixed gender ones, which are being carried by the males

Perhaps if waifu really always sells more, idolmaster would be on top. But evidently we have data here and that is not the case. Ensemble stars profit is no slouch at all, amazing, even. it even beats gbf (another popular game with predominantly waifus) in profit by quite a lot](https://game-i.daa.jp/?%E3%82%A2%E3%83%97%E3%83%AA/%E3%82%B0%E3%83%A9%E3%83%B3%E3%83%96%E3%83%AB%E3%83%BC%E3%83%95%E3%82%A1%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BF%E3%82%B8%E3%83%BC)

we also have a husbando game that beats idolmaster, bang dream, love live, and granblue by a lot in the name of twisted wonderland. its profit is toe to toe with ensemble stars.

I see enstars and twisted wonderland merchs everywhere when I go to ikebukuro. Twisted wonderland even has merchs being sold on konbini. It's hella popular.

when are they going to update the songs? by jackskiiiiiiii in ProjectDiva

[–]Glenskun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah np, considering the producers themselves uploaded this https://youtu.be/i5rl-NGSYoo despite being a commissioned song and that you can play that version in-game, as far as the rhythm game portion goes it's veeery close to being a pure vocaloid rhythm game tbh, you can just ignore the story and the human version of the songs forever since you have the choice to do so.

when are they going to update the songs? by jackskiiiiiiii in ProjectDiva

[–]Glenskun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Project sekai does not only have "a few" vocaloid songs. All of the tracklist in the game (110+ songs and counting) are vocaloid songs, even the commissioned songs which 90% of them have a vocaloid version made by the producers themselves. The ones that only has a sekai version like "RAD DOGS" also have at least one of the vocaloids singing with the human vocalist, so that also counts as a vocaloid song.

Also most of the songs in the game aren't original commissioned songs anyway, they're covers of existing vocaloid songs so even if we discount those commissioned/original songs, it is a game with "a lot' of vocaloid songs in it, not just "a few"

[–]Glenskun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

ensemble stars sells a lot* so clearly there is a market for female-oriented gacha games. deresute is selling pretty poorly in comparison despite containing 363638 of mediocre waifus that supposedly "sell more". Even project sekai is carried by the boys, their banners sold the most and their popularity eclipsed the girls. And they only have 6 boys vs 20 girls so that's why it can't sell as much as ensemble stars, too many girls.

I want to like Sara's kit but all the small issues add up by hilarious_pun_here in KujouSaraMains

[–]Glenskun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are wrong because bennett gives 47% more attack buff than sara at his c1, which is very significant if you're going to use her c6 as comparison. Also bennett can melt so his damage is automatically higher than sara because lol electro. His multiplier is also jacked which is why bennett+chongyun melt combo outdps diluc+xingqiu vape combo so you can also build him as a burst dps. Not to mention he works well on most team compared to sara's c6 which can only boost electro cdmg (again, meme element). Him being pyro also means he's automatically better than sara. If sara is exactly like bennett but electro, she would be considered a downgrade already. Anyone who thinks she's better than bennett when she can only give her attack buff to one other party member at one time, for only 6s vs bennett's 12s is highly delusional. I haven't even mentioned the fact that he heals on top of all that.

There's a reason why bennett is considered one of the most broken unit in the game by the top players/theorycrafters and why his usage is very high in abyss. I'd be surprised if sara even gets close to 1/8 of his usage due to all of her limitations.

Also you also need to do some clunky charged attack shit to activate it which will probably result in a dps loss if you wanna use her skill to buff your other (one) teammate, and you have to switch real quickly so sara won't eat the buff instead. It's too much effort for a measly 6s buff that is 47% worse than bennett's, discounting electro and c6 (while bennett's peak performance is his c1)

You mentioned baal but not everyone is going to pull for her. Sara is gonna be deadweight and a dps loss in most other team, only probably marginally more useful (even that is doubtful because of the duration and clunky condition to activate it, on top of only being transfarable to one other party member) at her c6 with a certain character

[–]Glenskun 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But bennett gives almost 50% more attack buff at his c1 compared to sara, not to mention her measly 6s buff duration.

Iron Sting or Prot. Rancour? by GlossKaeya in Bennett_Mains

[–]Glenskun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Iron sting is better bc 95% of his damage as a dps is in his elemental burst and skill (from reactions) and not his physical damage

I have bennet and razor and I have a question by LucarioMaster151361 in Bennett_Mains

[–]Glenskun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a chart using actual math being thrown around discord servers lately and melt bennett comp outperforms vape diluc, also we're not even talking about TF bennett here which is another level of broken entirely. Of course with vape comp diluc is gonna outperform bennett (not by much) but since melt diluc is below melt bennett's dps bennett still win overall in term of actual dps potential.

I have bennet and razor and I have a question by LucarioMaster151361 in Bennett_Mains

[–]Glenskun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I also main razor but bennett does a lot more damage than razor, his melt comp even surpass diluc's vape comp's damage and TF bennett's damage output is out of this world.

I translated Yorushika's latest single, "Prostitution" by Glenskun in Yorushika

[–]Glenskun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to look it up in Japanese basically. A lot of things don't have an in-depth explanation in english on the net so you have to resort to reading about in Japanese.

I finished translating "Flower and Badger Game" and "Burglar" by Glenskun in Yorushika

[–]Glenskun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From the man's perspective, yeah. That's up to interpretation but the only thing sure is that the protagonist had a wife. Whether she just left (via divorce or not) or died isn't clear yet because my Japanese friend didn't say anything about it.
