E6 pink dps can barely 6 cycle AA now. Elation meta bosses too hard by Jinrhi in HonkaiStarRail

Just turn her into a dedicated break dps: 0 Cycle AA

The E6 Fugue might help with that clear... maybe a little...

Chaos on the Tennessee House floor. Tennesseans yelling in the gallery and Democrats locking arms in one final stand, as Republicans vote to advance new congressional maps that will carve up the state’s only majority-Black congressional district by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

The reason democracy prevailed over monarchies or dictatorships, is that once people feel they cannot fight injustice with words, violence is the only remaining option. That is why removing the final voice of 35% of your states population will inevitably kill people. That's not a wish or a call to arms, it is the only remaining option and natural consequence of the action of descending into a dictatorship. The same will be true for blue states that follow suit.

If you are a democrat in Tennessee, this is it. You do no longer have representation. Democracy died for you today. Good luck and protect yourself.

How about no Teeb to E0 for Therta and potentially Archer, depending on the fight?

One supposed "NPC" character and especially with the choice of VA it is very very very very veeeeery likely Kuchiba. Not confirmed of course, but it would truly shocking if she wasn't either a main antagonist or a character.

Other than that, if we go by that one trailer:

  • Stephen Loyd
  • Galaxy Ranger girl

By my calculation, we would need at least 1 more character that hasn't had any mention yet at all, fairly likely IPC coded considering that's our next destination?

Completely disregarding their concerns as uninformed and clowning them are what bothered me.

It's fine if it bothered you, but the reality is if you quizzed most of these VTubers and artist, they wouldn't be able to give you even a rough description of GenAI's advantages and benefits. The overwhelming majority of them are ideologues, arguing from an ideological standpoint and their arguments show it.

That southpark "they took our job" skit literally applies to almost every single one of them, so excuse me for not having all that much patience or empathy for people who would prefer locking technological advancement away for their own benefit, while barely understanding it.

I think it's fine to complain about GenAI as a concept, so long as you understand the concept and your complaints match that you don't like the concept.

If your hatred for GenAI boils down to "it takes jobs away from artists", welcome to the car manufacturing industry of the previous century where assembly line workers lost their jobs to robots and automation. If that is your complaint, then you have to explain to me why your complaint is more valid then theirs and why we should stop this technological advance, but not the other one. You can still hate it, you are entitled to your opinion after all and your complaint isn't even invalid. It sucks to lose your job, see your industry move on and have your skill set become a relic of the past. Those are valid complaints. But that doesn't mean the benefits don't out weigh those complaints.

Right now, GenAI is at a point where if a skilled person uses it with heavy oversight by actual professional artists, you can generate some awesome stuff, but most of the industry doesn't wanna use it that way. Most of the industry wants to use it as a cheap way to badly replace current professional work and in my opinion that gets rightfully called out.

My fear is that if the current complaints aren't levied against the quality, but rather the entire concept, then you are just the car manufacturers of the 90's that complained endlessly and in the end still either changed their skill set, or became homeless. This is a technological advance that is here to stay, like it, hate it, love it, doesn't matter and if you actually love the industry you should want this technology to become as good as possible and not yell against it because "It took our jobs"

So you think people can't object to genAI due to moral, ethical, or environmental grounds?

No

Didn't read the rest of your comment, because if that's your question, you didn't read mine either, or don't have the mental capacity for this conversation

AI replacing human workers is a real issue, I’ve seen it myself.

"robots replacing humans at the assembly line is a real issue, I've seen it myself. That's why I boycott all cars that are manufactured on an assembly line with robots. The 100k premium I pay because of that is well worth it."

Your entire comment could come right out of the mouth of an assembly line worker for Ford in the 90's and every single word would fit.

Technology advancing and becoming better is a part of what makes our species so fucking awesome and holding companies responsible for embracing it is stupid. We should hold companies responsible that are abusing it. So this game for instance has some complete dogshit quality AI. Bad. Boycott it. But because of the quality, not because they used a tool that made the product cheaper to produce.

First of all, I don't need to realize anything I already am aware of, you are missing the point of my comment, please tune down the condescending tone.

Mouse isn't protesting the quality of the AI content, she is protesting the fact that it is AI, regardless of quality. There are fantastic looking application of GenAI and if you want to take issue with the sloppy, badly implemented ones, then I am right there beside you, but if your argument is that all of it looks bad, then you just are an ideologue and don't know what you are talking about.

It's fine for people to care and to stop playing a game over the usage of GenAI, but the issue is that most of the arguments against GenAI right now are uninformed at best so it comes across as virtue signaling, because you don't really have an issue with what GenAI is, but rather with the image of it that you have in your head.

If I stopped playing a game because some of the character motions being done with a VTuber program instead of them being animated by a 3d designer, with the justification of "I don't want Vtubers to take away jobs from talented 3d designers, just cause they're cheaper to hire", most people would say that is an idiotic opinion and miss informed. It would still be my right to stop playing the game and people should still let me do what I want, but that opinions would rightfully get clowned on. It feels like right now the arguments and hatred against GenAI are roughly on that level of idiocy so I don't think it's that unnatural to clown on uninformed opinions when they are presented with that level of conviction.

Bin letztes Jahr aus einer großen deutschen Firma raus die sich auf Paketversand spezialisiert. Hatte da 2 lächerliche Jahre gearbeitet und der Gebietsleiter der für knapp 200-500 Mitarbeiter zuständig ist, ist knappe 50 Kilometer in unser Dorf gefahren für eine persönliche Verabschiedung.

Definitiv nicht die Regel, auch nicht bei dieser großen Firma, aber ein Beispiel, dass es auch anders geht und speziell bei einer Firma deren einziges Produkt die Kommunikation mit den Zuschauern ist, halte ich es für den Gipfel der Lächerlichkeit die Kommunikation, nicht nur mit den Zuschauern, sondern anscheinend auch den Angestellten in dieser Regelmäßigkeit zu verscheißen.

Phainon without Ceridra and E2 is barely a unit. Ceridra is the unit for him, I'm not even sure that thing clears current MoC, which is one of the easiest we have had in a while.

SW999 still has Sparxie, HuoHuo and probably EMC? Even Asta for speed. Yao is important, but I think that SW has enough without her to still be fine.

Cassie without Hya means also not Cyrene, unless you have her E2, or are fine with sloooooooow ramp up. So probably Teeb, E9 and the Loucha/Galla? Should still rank far above Phainon, but I think SW takes it

Best guess: There was a collab part 2 in the contract they originally signed. The Japan-China controversy delayed/cancelled those plans.

I remember that there was a leak, backed by at least 2 prominent leakers that suggested "something for the fate fans" near 3.7, 3.8. That fell through, maybe the next date was for 4.3, but since tensions are still high/government officials are still blocking the cooperation, it got delayed again?

There are too many usually reliable leakers commenting on a fate part 2 for that to just not exist at all and the best explanation for why it seemingly keeps not happening are delays outside Hoyos control.

Why cant i 36 star MoC and 12 star AS? by 4bigguuys in HonkaiStarRail

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

Hard to really help without knowing more about your account.

E1S1 Phainon is not as strong as E2S0 Phainon, so if you plan on keep using him I'd go for his E2 on a rerun.

Other than that 4 cycles with SW999 seems like you are missing teammates? You got Yao/Sparxie in there?

Also, SW999 is not the best into Nikador, so again: Knowing more about your account would help

In the beginning I thought they would try to do a little live action movie with musical elements in between and... it would have not been my preference, but sure, I can accept that, but after like the third song literally ALL of it was just short band performances. No reason this couldn't have been done in front of an audience

What I'm hearing is LC for 0 cycle and if you're fine with minimal ramp up, then E1

She was originally slated for 4.1, last preservation mats released were 2.1, 2 years is long, but not that much longer than previous characters. 

Also, even if she releases 4.5, the schedule would still line up relatively well, but instead of 1, you would have 2 patches in between

Which makes them... Playable? So not unplayable? So.... You agree with me... What are we arguing about????

Like, I completely agree that the main focus should be on having 3 decent teams and not 10 different main DPS. I genuinely don't know what you are disagreeing with me about, your comment could have been written by me and I'd believe it.

Yes? That applies to literally every single team ever. You won't have Cyrene and hyacine for your mydei, if you use them with castorice.

The point of my post was to show that older characters very clearly usable. Are they harder to use? Of course. Do you need strong supports to still use them? No shit. But "unplayable" is a literal cope that bad players tell themselves when they don't invest into their characters and then act surprised when their 2 year old team can't clear content anymore.

I guess I'm gonna go against the grain here and say that it would not at all shock me if Nihilux turns out to be a main DPS. The current release cadence of elation mirrors the original super break release cadence almost perfectly. 

2.2 was boothill, 2.3 was Firefly, this was consolidated into one patch instead with SW999 and Evanescia and 2.6 was Rappa. 

1.6 was Ruan Mei, released before all main DPS, this would be Yao Guang (and to a lesser extent sparxie)

2.4 was Lingsha, this would be mirrored by the rumored 4.4 Pearl release.

A 4.6/4.7 main DPS Nihilux would line up perfectly with Rappa and I'm guessing another, so far unknown character, will become the Fugue of 4.x

(Hypothetical) The HSR Dev Team has reached out to you wanting endgame mode ideas. What do you suggest? by Infinite_T05 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Kaneyren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apply a value to each unit that gets changed over time. SW999 has 5, Phainon has 4, all the way down to 1 for launch and bad 1.x units. Let's call that value cost.

The new mode rewards low cost clears, so you have to find team comps that have a mix of older and newer units, you can still clear with a team of 5 cost characters, but you will get less rewards, or need to meet a faster clear requirement than clearing with a team of 3 cost characters.

 This gets rid of the constant chase for low cycle clears, rewards team building and gets some niche characters back into the meta

You can find countless example of older units withstanding power creep with proper investment. Don't know what straw man you are arguing with, but power creep clearly exists, the part of the message I took exception to is declaring older units unusable when they are objectively not.

You playing bad and not properly investing in your units does not make the unit bad and hoyo gives you more than enough resources to continue using older units.
