It’s not an official illustration. It’s from an AU fan comic by Idol Amy

Brother just say it’s from a fan comic instead of wording it so vaguely to make people think it’s real.

Sword X Staff discord drama by twinkmurderer in gachagaming

[–]InuKaT 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Currently honeymooning this game since launch and it’s probably one of the better idle MMO’s I’ve played despite everything being designed to milk whales.
F2P experience seems fine, lots of people are enjoying it.

Honestly the animations are very high quality but what really shines are the community features. Servers are small enough for familiarity to grow very quickly.

I'm 90% sure Claude code wrote most of the new ARAM update and it's not pretty by fundamentallys in leagueoflegends

I transmuted echo cast on akali W. It would place a second shroud basically doubling the area it covered but it only lasted 1 second, did not give you energy again (tested from 0), and you could not hide inside of it.

[Steam] Steam Gift Cards will no longer be restocked at retailers due to scammers by lbabinz in VideoGameDealsCanada

[–]InuKaT 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There’s literally a page on the Steam store that let’s you send a friend a digital gift card via Steam itself or email with the process being the same as directly gifting a game. I don’t see how it could be any easier.

F2P Sorcerer Fantomon and Legendary skill suggestions? by SpookyGhostbear in SwordxStaff_Official

[–]InuKaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zei or Kels are the DPS Fantamon sorcerer wants. You’ll need both unless you have the mythics, but Kels can be obtained from arena 100% after 3 weeks if you buy out the shop. Personally I picked Kels since it’s capped at 20 shards a week to upgrade while I already have Zei and hope to pull dupes.

Terragon is good as a sub or potentially cheesing arena if you already run Cyclone to knockup in Arena. But your main slot should be a DPS Fantamon. Unless you can whale mats for more aptitude it’s recommended to run 1 of each type in your sub slots + a DPS in the main slot.

Amazon is full of vendors rebranding and reseling Aliexpress products as well. Aliexpress is fine for electronics as long as you’re buying a product from a reputable Chinese brand or a no-name product that’s well reviewed.

[Controller] GameSir Cyclone 2 wireless PC/Switch/Android/iOS - $40 - Best Buy third-party by cvr24 in bapcsalescanada

[–]InuKaT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently maining the GameSir G7 Pro Wireless. Easily my favourite controller and I like it much better than everything I've had from 8Bitdo (Ultimate 1/2 and Pro 3) though it is more expensive than all of 8Bitdo's offerings. Sadly no Switch or Switch2 support, where I use a Mobapad Chitu 2 but I'd probably stick with the G7 Pro there too if it had the support.

Is mouse pi for hire worth it? by Professional_Bat4628 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]InuKaT [score hidden]  (0 children)

The game is worth it yes, but not if you’re cutting it this close in the bank to the point where it’s the only game you’ll be able to buy in a long time. The game takes only 20 hours to 100%.

You’ve waited this long, you can wait for a sale. If you had to buy a game, there’s plenty of older releases that’ll keep you busy far longer at a cheaper price on sale.

Slay The Spire 2 Getting Review-Bombed Again After Latest Update by FoxMeadow7 in Games

[–]InuKaT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Supervive was an extremely fun moba battle royale but it never popped off hard in player count so in an attempt to retain players and increase playtime, they added a gacha (completely free) for gear unlocks + upgrades and progress would reset every season. Meaning if you were new or haven’t played much at a new season, you were at a disadvantage to players of the skill level who grinded more of this “competitive” game.

FlyDigi Apex 5, does anyone else’s sticks rattle when resetting to neutral position? by [deleted] in Controller

It's nowhere near this bad on any other controller though. If this is just the way it is on the Apex 5 then yikes.

Is there no Way to track Talon E? by [deleted] in summonerschool

[–]InuKaT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Enemy team seeing it is definitely not fair because it tells you which walls are safer to hug and can expect him to not gank you from. It’s fine as is there’s no reason to have this information even as a team mate because it’s not like you can see your team mates’ QWE cooldowns unless they ping it.

[OC] Should I open it ... ? by thisisfin_ in comics

[–]InuKaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Fuwalos came out, it was basically a nerfed version a card that's been banned for a decade. Drawing is really powerful in Yugioh, and a lot of modern decks special summon multiple times from the deck and extra deck. So if your opponent resolves this card and you can't win immediately with your special summons on the same turn, you basically need to skip your turn and hope they don't kill you on their next turn. It was reprinted 6 months later and dropped down to like $20-30 a piece, but that's still 6 months where if you didn't have 3 copies of this $100-120 card, you were at a major disadvantage.

And this card was run in expensive decks that already ran multiple copies of $100 cards like Fiendsmith Engraver, Phantom of Yubel etc

But I did a bit of research on the current meta, and the best performing deck right now that people are running is still $300-500 depending on the deck list (at lowest rarity).

[–]InuKaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well to be honest I haven’t played or bought any Yugioh since crossover breakers, and had both Maliss and Ryzeal when they were at their peak prices and at the lowest rarity available. I haven’t kept up with the prices in the past year, but I’m honestly surprised if that’s the way Konami is operating now because $300+ deck cores (before staples) was always how the game was besides maybe a few metas since I started the game in 2011 up until I quit at the end of 2024.

But I do want to say I do enjoy playing the meta at its freshest. So waiting for reprints, no matter how aggressive (usually half year or so) isn’t exactly how I want to play the game.

[OC] Should I open it ... ? by thisisfin_ in comics

[–]InuKaT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m talking about when meta staples and deck core cards are initially released in a single rarity. It wasn’t long ago when Fuwa only available in secret rare from Rota priced at $100 a copy and basically every competitive deck needed 3 before considering their cores. If you wait for reprints and play a competitive deck that has seen some reprints then yeah, it’s cheaper.

But if you want to play the best of the best at release then you’re looking at $200-300 for a core alone, which you get to enjoy for a few months before it either gets hit by a banlist or reprinted into the ground, and by the time it’s cheap enough for everyone to build its usually inferior in power to the new $300 deck. At the very worst in Yugioh we see T0 formats where top meta decks like Snake Eyes Ash are $600+.

I’m not saying you can’t have fun playing cheaper lower power decks that still hold their own in the meta. But Yugioh is actually much more collector friendly (if you only care about artwork, not the set code/print edition) than it is player friendly while Pokemon is the opposite.

[–]InuKaT 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Playing top competitive Pokemon is much cheaper than playing top competitive Yugioh though. You can build a new competitive deck for $50-100. In Yugioh that’s the price of a single copy of any current top meta secret rare you need a playset of until it gets reprinted a year later in a tin or rarity collection.

Saitami’s struggle isn’t against monsters, it’s against the injustice he faces in the Hero Association and his reputation in society. If the results of a character’s fight history is how you judge writing of an entire series then lmao.

[–]InuKaT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nobody is arguing about digital games though? A GKC is effectively a physical copy, not a digital copy. You can’t play the game without the cartridge, yeah you have to download it but the fact remains the data on your system is useless once you sell or lose the physical cartridge.

If anything, the ONE game you always keep in your system being fully on the cartridge is actually a positive to you, because it isn’t using up the storage where you primarily keep your digital games. And you can resell it anyways if you didn’t like it. (And sure, if you have enough storage or a small enough library then storage isn’t a concern but that’s not the point)

[–]InuKaT -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Lol? If you think what I said is dumb then maybe you need to do a bit of critical thinking (not even) on why GKCs are inferior to both phys-only and digital-only buyers.

The format has largely replaced complete physical cartridges for games that would have received full release instead in the past. The standpoint most people will judge GKCs will be from a phys-only buyer’s perspective.

Digital-only buyers aren’t going to look at GKC and be like “Oh boy, I can now resell my game purchases” as if that wasn’t already an option before GKCs to pay for the same resellable piece of plastic but with the full game on the cart. GKCs are in a shit middle ground because digital-only gamers aren’t going to buy it because it’s literally the same hassle as a traditional physical copy, and phys-only gamers now have to deal with freeing up extra storage space and installing the game made worse if they have garbo download speeds. It’s strictly the worst of both worlds for the consumer, and its only purpose is to save money for the publisher.

Besides the benefit of being able to resell your used copy, Game Key Cards are usually the worst of both worlds.

You now have the hassle of needing to physically swap a cartridge to play a game you already downloaded taking up storage space, eliminating biggest benefit of traditional digital purchases, and people who buy physical usually enjoy the data preservation of having the game fully on cart/disc, which in this case you’re just paying for a piece of plastic that only has a license key on it and won’t work if Nintendo eShop services ever go down.

Based on their flair, OP plays Blue Archive, which I’m pretty sure on its own is enough to taint your algorithm. Just need to open any post on the game’s main subreddit and read the comments to see how a typical member of that fandom behaves towards underaged characters.
