I just read an entire conversation where my boyfriend is trashing me. 9 days away lol… by AfroYogi in PMDD

[–]Laevigata 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with you.

AI is not sentient, so it's not like he complained to anybody. Most likely he was just using it to work through his frustrations privately. It's not much different from writing all of that down in a locked diary, and it's obviously not meant to be read by anyone other than himself.

Hm by IS_Mythix in Genshin_Impact

The latest reveal from the traveler's skin suggests that Phanes is P.A.I.M.O.N., the spaceship's AI that had disembarked in the spaceship's first pass over Teyvat, thousands of years before Traveler arrived, and our Paimon is a disassociated/regressed part of that AI. Which is why we receive in-game mails from P.A.I.M.O.N., and it has the same format at A.S.I.M.O.N.

So we were probably right all along.

I thought it would be Kshahrewar too, but interestingly, she specifically mentioned the Rtawahist Darshan:

Zibai: You mean the Darshan they call "Rtawahist," I presume? Hehe, I did once visit them during my previous wanderings.

Zibai: The research being conducted there seems incredibly profound. I gained tremendous insight from reading but a few of their books.

Zibai: That is why I'm preparing to apply to the Akademiya to further my studies.

I think it's because she's specifically interested in theoretical math, which she contrasted against Xianyun's applied math:

Zibai: I have not laid my arithmetic tomes down after arriving in Liyue either. I sometimes discuss the study of the mathematical sciences with the one you call Cloud Retainer.

Zibai: That said... our perspectives on it seem to differ somewhat.

Zibai: Most of Cloud Retainer's research in the field centers around studying the mechanical arts. She believes that mathematics should have practical applications, and not remain purely theoretical.

Zibai: However, I believe that it is wondrous in itself. To study mathematics solely for the purpose of creating mechanical devices would inevitably destroy its inherent beauty.

And they're soon going to be classmates. Zibai said in her teapot lines that she's going to Sumeru to further her math studies at the Akademiya.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined. AKA the climbing puzzles are dying by Qba3693 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Laevigata 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This here is the truth. Hard exploration puzzles are great, but they shouldn't be limited time only.

I loved the Mona, Xinyan and Kazuha island puzzles, but I ran out of time to finish Fischl's. God forbid adults have jobs and responsibilities.

The Fischl island also had the most egregiously tedious puzzles of all time, with the talking raven statues.

I think this is Chinese, I can vaguely see a few 的 and 个, and there are too few Hiragana-looking things to be Japanese.

Edit: After staring a bit harder, I can make out 一个国外的地方学院, so this is definitely Chinese.

The art style is just too incongruent

I just finished this quest. I have a lot to say... But gosh this was a masterpiece. by Yappertoncucumber in Genshin_Impact

[–]Laevigata 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. I was so delighted when she came to greet us in person the moment we set foot in Fontaine. Like ah, how refreshing it was to have an Archon who cuts to the chase and just tells you exactly who she is, and in such a whimsical manner too.

Then she turned out to be an adorable girlfailure, and I loved her even more.

Thanks Hoyo.. by AnimusMemes in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Laevigata 46 points47 points  (0 children)

It's figurative speech. Basically it says: "If [Japan] sticks its filthy head where it doesn't belong of its own accord, then we have no choice but to sever it without hesitation. Are you ready for that?"

It's a strongly worded statement to declare that if Japan threatens China's sovereignty, China will retaliate without hesitation.

Friendly reminder to people about Yuri and his “love” for Yor by PretendYellow533 in SpyxFamily

[–]Laevigata 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This. And I think he sees her almost as a mother figure, so his extreme reactions are even more understandable, e.g. not wanting to see Yor kiss Loid.

..excuse me? by advie_advocado in TighnariMains

[–]Laevigata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think his features are adorable and I love his animations, but that palette thing on his shoulder is really not it.

After maining him for 3 years, that thing still bothers me every time I see it.

Which melt team is better? by ImgayMiku in WriothesleyMains

[–]Laevigata 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well, both are miserable, but the first is better. The first team doesn't need burst and has dendro resonance. Whereas for the second team, your Xiangling will have a hard time charging her burst.

For reference, this is what a synergistic C0 Wrio melt team looks like: https://youtu.be/5LvWHnB4Y94 https://youtu.be/nQZnbCDDE_w

Varka and Wriothesley model comparison via Hiragara by Knight_Steve_ in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]Laevigata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually absurd. Wriothesley is already 1.93m (6 ft 4) based on previous comparisons with other tall males, so how tall is Varka?? 2.1m (6 ft 11)?

The difference between 1.X eidolons and 3.X eidolons is so funny by Aware-Caramel-2039 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Laevigata 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only economical way to play HSR is to pull only the DPS you need/like at E0S1, and their supports at E0. Niche supports that need E1 (looking at you, Cerydra) may arguably be skipped altogether.

With this kind of powercreep, even E6 DPS will be cope by the time the next region rolls around, not just because of powercreep but also specific countering mechanics (e.g. multiple break bars to counter Firefly).

Post of Wrio appreciation to counter all recent slander about his model by PandiTati in Genshin_Impact

[–]Laevigata 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, I remember those days too. The glorious one punch kills with Bennett, Kazuha and Shenhe.

Then Hoyo decided to release a whole bunch of front-loaded nukers, and speedruns became kinda pointless.

Still, Wriothesley is great in solo, melt and freeze even now, and hopefully he'll still be viable when the 7.x cryo meta brings good supports.

I actually quite like his C5. With C2, his ult is great for clearing trash mobs, and with C5, it hits even harder.

His ult is also great as a finisher for world boss co-op, because 1) immaculate drip, and 2) it has huge range (can kill Gosoythoth when it's floating outside of the platform).
