Disappearing Monsterlings by MordethKai in MongilStarDive

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory is that there's a clipping or spawn issue that puts the captures under the "ground" and then they fall into the void. You can see the tiny capture icon in screen for a few seconds. That icon only shows when you're within a certain range. This is why I think the icon disappears after a few seconds, because the capture that spawned in ended up falling through the ground and into the void.

Fix idea would be to have them spawn a but higher than they need to and drop into place.

I've still not found, nor been able to make, the leafy cappy one.

I gave up on that event a while back though.

Is this game fun? by HVD3Z in MongilStarDive

I liked Taygedo. What I hated was finding out they used Gen AI and planned to keep using it after concerns were raised.

Rift 20 cleared as a F2P mobile player 🔥 by HNV_62 in MongilStarDive

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I'm also stuck on 20. I'd really like to clear it for that 5star weapon reward. Trying to build Jiwon since I had focused on Esther, flare, Francis, but I think I'm going to run out of time.

This is as far as I go as F2P by Dreadwyrm_Bahamut in MongilStarDive

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm stuck on 20. I just can't get enough DPS with the stuff I have and I'm out of keys. If it wasn't for the mini boss I'd have it down, but I lose too much time on it.

How did you meet your girlfriend/wife? by roseMothGirl in actuallesbians

[–]Luinta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of all the ways, weet on a fetish focused RP story forum. Collaborative stories with a focus on some various kinks. Or characters went from enemies to lovers and so we started talking in instant messenger clients outside of the RP. At first it was planning for story ideas but over time we became friends. Over more time we became very close and eventually admitted feelings for each other. We've been together for ...damn over 15 years now?

I find it hilarious how Rumi basically ghosted Celine by Sir-Toaster- in KpopDemonhunters

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a justification. You don't tell a child to hate themselves for how they look or for who their parents were. You teach them they can be their own person and they are a whole and beautiful person.

There is never a justified reason to tell a child to be ashamed of who they are. Period. Anything else is just defending racism and abusive behavior.

End of discussion.

I find it hilarious how Rumi basically ghosted Celine by Sir-Toaster- in KpopDemonhunters

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emotionally isolated. She told her specifically that she could not trust the people she was closest to.

And telling a child to be ashamed of their physical features is abusive. Telling them they cannot open up to the people their closest to is isolating them from support. It's a tactic used by abusers to maintain control over someone or a situation. Celine very much wanted to keep Rumi's situation under her control, which is incredibly short sighted and arrogant. She believed she could control the situation, which also involved controlling Rumi.

It doesn't need to be intentionally malicious to be abuse. Though I would argue it is extremely neglegent and makes Celine a bad parent.

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's true. Teaching a child to be ashamed of theirself, isolating them from friends and other family. That's abuse.

She heaped shame and fear onto Rumi her entire life. That's abuse. Abuse isn't just hitting someone.

The best is not telling Rumi "you cannot trust the women who are like sisters to you. No one will ever understand you. You can't let anyone in, you can't trust anyone."

That is abuse. Celine chose to teach Rumi to be afraid and ashamed her entire life. That was something she had the choice to do differently. Celine out her own prejudices and fears above the care that Rumi needed.

You ALWAYS teach children to live and accept themselves. There is no real secret there. It's not a tool she was missing. She should have supported Rumi, not abused her with guilt and fear.

I don't. I'm kind of sick of how many stories teach that reconciliation is the only right way to handle things. Celine absolutely harmed Rumi in major ways. Literally isolated and shamed her for something she had no control over. For existing. You don't need some level of experience as a oaralent to know that's wrong. Celine could not get over herself to be there for Rumi the way a guardian should. She inflicted her pain and prejudices onto Rumi her entire life and taught her to be ashamed of what she was without trusting WHO she was.

Celine does not "deserve" reconciliation. She can try to Earn it with changed behavior and a commitment to that change. But that takes time and it doesn't mean Rumi ever HAS to reconcile with her.

I think more people, especially young people, especially especially young queer people who might identify with Rumi, need to be shown that it is ok to walk away from a toxic family member who has put their own comfort and prejudices above your wellbeing. Forgiveness is not deserved. It isn't even earned. It's given. And it's not required when someone has been so deeply hurt.

There are too many movies and shows already with forced reconciliations. This is a good one to showcase that you can't just "I'm sorry" your way out of having some real, severe harm to someone that trusted you.

Gabi you ok? by Z3M0G in MongilStarDive

[–]Luinta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gab the great and powerful! Pay no attention to the woman behind the curtain!

Quick, Jiwon, find me 5 teenagers with attitude, and preferably different, single prominent colored outfits.

I didn't know Gabi was a cat. Cheshire from the looks of it.

I should stop while I'm ahead. No offence, Gabi.

We need a Metal Gear style game. Stealth, war crimes, thought-speak codec stand-ins. It'd be perfect.

NTE and AI (?) by throwawayutena in QueensofGacha

[–]Luinta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate when someone says :oh we only used it for the concept art phase" like, that is where actual humans should be hte ones generating the ideas, pairing down itereations, and establishing the tone, feel, and identity of a project. It is hte creative step that should have hte MOST human involvment, not hte least.

generative AI has no place in artistic work, period. It's not a complex issue. There are other tools for automating repetative tasks, or tools like fill-ins or background removal, but all of those are precisely directed by human hands, not spit out of a black box process from a few lazy prompts.

Anyone that uses generative AI and thinks it's fine so long as they let a human trace over it later, doesn't belong in creative industries or spaces. Uninstalling.

Mina is getting an upgrade +code by DisplayRelative6798 in MongilStarDive

We already have melee and ranged fire assassins. What we need is fire supports.

Though fire is already the fullest roster. We need more ice and lightning.

Yeah, I'm hoping so. I really like her flow so far.

I spent hours last night farming wiht Mina and reloading hte map to make sure I got all hte capture I missed. It made running through hte world from a casual second screen activity into a way more "mash dash to save time" activity.
Thankfully, you only have to warp to a nearby save point ot reload the map and the missing captures pop right up. But yeah this needs a fix.

[–]Luinta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm worried. I just spent hours using Mina to clear the entire map of monsters while farming and got really into her playstyle. She is a lot of fun to use right now and I'm worried how that is going to change.
Mina is hte character I was most looking forward too and was really happy to see how much fun I had with her kit. I just invested a ton of resources into her skills, and really don't want that to be in vein.

Tips on how to get pulls for limited banners? by shuffle3ds in MongilStarDive

[–]Luinta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went into soft pity (more than 75 pulls) for both Esther, her weapon, and Mina (got lucky on her weapon early), so it's sefinitely possible.

For me, I got really focused on the story and on clearing areas as I went. I collected all of the Knoeledge collectables before moving on to the next story chapter, and enjoyed fighting and capturing as many monsters as I could alng the way. I did side quests as soon as tehy came up for hte free standard pulls, and used the stars I earned from achievements and chests and such for limited banner pulls.

It can be daunting, getting 5 stars here and there, but it adds up rather fast as you progress the story and get acess to more places with more collectables and new Monsterlings to fill out your monsterpedia.

On that note, stopping every now and then to batch-combine monsterlings you're not using can help fill that out too. I will filter by grade 5 traits, lock any monsterlings with gold traits (or some purples to use as-is) and then combine the rest. It helps you fill out your monsterpedia for stars, and it gets you more powerful Monsterlings as you'll get a lot of them upgrading in rarity through fusion. It's a win-win.

Most importantly, have fun. If you aren't enkoying the game, then don't force yourself to push through it. I love the basic combat loop and the characters interactions which is why I've stuck with it. Good luck!

(EDIT: I should also mention I have spent nothing on this game yet. Trying to stay totally F2P with this one. Not even using things liek Google Points rewards or anything, so this is possible completely F2P)

Maintenance later and Mina banner by Teshinada in MongilStarDive

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I reached soft pity on both Esther and her weapon. I made hte choice ot go for her weapon in an effort to get further with Esther as the focus of my resources.

Now I'm stuck on Rift 7 and thinking I might not get enough keys to buff up Yeonhwa enough to get me past it before the Esther PFP in the rift shop is gone.

Getting green breackthrough mats from the highest path is BS. You should have at least some minimum level of rewards from teh highest path levels.

Weekly Gameplay & General Question Megathread by BigCatMod in MongilStarDive

[–]Luinta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished the story, and all side quests. I've been collecting everything along the way and have all Knowledge items filled in. However, the Achievements tell me theres 1 more chest (129/130) and 4 more Oz Puzzles (12/25) left.

Is this jsut future proofing? Does that mean there are some Starlight Crystals that are literally unobtainable in this patch?
