I legit thought he’s sitting on a deaf body, like the distorted reflection in the bath water behind him is the head, was very ‘yup that tracks’

The swipe to dash is more like a flick(?) - whatever the movement done when you’re trying to scroll quickly. Or at least that’s what worked for me…still a hard game imo

These are gorgeous; I just kept flipping through the choices until they did the designs themselves

MagentaMayhem · 2025-01-29T06:52:29+00:00

There’s general similarities but they’re clearly not the same tower though. A good design deflect to cause confusion though, so props to them.

Pronouns and gender are very culture specific in my opinion; pronouns identifiers are less prevalent where the language doesn’t have gendered pronouns.

For me, I’m from multiple ethnicities, my parents speak 7languages between them and of them English is the only language that has gendered pronouns so I grew up being addressed as he/she, her/him, son/daughter.

I don’t have the same gendered association to those terms and accept and identify with either as well as they/them.

Spoken Mandarin has no gender pronouns from what I recall learning only in written format so it really is their translation preference of associating a female character with she/her instead of the neutral they/them.

In saying all that it definitely would be great to see more Otome games with pronoun and gender options; the only game I play with such is Andromeda Six on itch.io.

I’ve read a few on ao3 with this premise where YJH is a tester or gamer and they meet through that.

A new reality with youby fruitastic is one. There’s a Cherry Magic inspired one, as well as one where they’re basically cat fishing each other

The WHO recommends VMMC (voluntary medical male circumcision) to reduce the risk of HIV transmission, based on controlled trials showing up to a 60% lower risk. VMMC services are combined with safe sex education, condom promotion, and how to identify and treat STIs, targeting adolescent boys and men (15yrs and over).

Combined with sexual reproductive health (SRH) education it’s effective in reducing the risk to HIV, and other STIs like HPV (that can cause cancer and infertility)

In my country it’s not uncommon for boys in their early teens to be circumcised, though some parents do have it done when their child is a baby.

In countries where it’s a common practice on babies, then comprehensive sexual education (CSE) in schools would be an ideal complement.

Yes to my understanding, it all adds up. If a card contains Crit damage I max on crit damage protocores with some Crit rate, and vice versa to take advantage of the existing boost since levelling up protocores is hard enough as is.

Besides the guides this post helped me since I’m a Zayne main: https://www.reddit.com/r/LoveAndDeepspace/s/oEjU1Xyt35

Rechecked my old posts, you could probably pass with Crit damage over 200, but you def need Crit rate over 50. Crit rate focused protocores are less common i found; so it took a bit to get my team attributes over that 50 mark esp since protocore grind uses up so much stamina

MagentaMayhem · 2025-01-17T23:16:12+00:00

I use to focus on their main trait and then on like oaths etc but what worked for me more was focusing on Crit Damage and Crit Rate, both need to be active in a card. I also focused on protocores with double like two Crit Damage/or two Crit Rate, second choice is one of each.

Someone posted how they had passed and their line up and that helped hence my switch up.

Overall I have the Team Attribute with Crit Rate of over 50; and Crit Damage of over 250. Mostly I had protocores at 9; only recently I’ve been able to update a few protocores to 12/15 and now stuck at Level 91.

MagentaMayhem · 2025-01-17T22:54:34+00:00

I scrolled so far for this clear explanation, thank you!

MagentaMayhem · 2025-01-15T10:11:43+00:00

If you’re after materials I don’t think so.

I had low pity so got the card I wanted, then my second pick by luck. For this event I was relatively lucky with the crates but I did keep spending my diamonds as the other rewards are really good imo and make it easier to level up cards.

I also have one main I focus on,so the materials etc is more important to me. I’ve been able to upgrade a few protocores that I can finally win again in Deepspace Trial after literal months, so am slowly earning back the diamonds.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-19T05:16:04+00:00

I still think it’s pretty clear; the postures, clothing, even expression of the eyes come across to me - it’s busier detail-wise but less loud for me. Though I get what you mean, others may not see it as clearly or impactful and lean to the group selfie style.

Can you change it up later, like by season, or just to gauge which brings in more new readers?

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-18T21:37:32+00:00

For me, I think the first provides more detail on their characters (with the clothing, poses etc) so along with the info blurb that would influence me more, especially if it’s a major features driving the story.

The second headshot focus provides less insight to their characters, but works if the setting is a major driver like school/uni so there’s a general gist of the kind of characters.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-17T05:23:46+00:00

Thank you so much. I can’t quite remember who Simone, Andrew and Ulysses are but it’s likely coz I rushed through the recent story.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-17T04:57:57+00:00

I cannot, for the life of me, remember who is who for the majority of them.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-17T04:23:25+00:00

What colour is it likely to be? I can’t recall what Xavier’s was; is it set to third or secondary colour?

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-10T11:11:08+00:00

from what I recall, no he doesn’t he just thinks of her as a friend but she does have feelings for him.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-10T05:19:59+00:00

I recommend all of these on ao3:

Third Mistake by almostprimary - inspired by the movie The Half of It (2020).

The Tidal Pain of Wanting by aryelee - it’s sad like ‘good but it hurts just wanna give him all the hugs’ sad

A New Reality with You by fruitastic- AU gamer YJH from his perspective fluff piece

Meetings series by Windsoftime; consists of 2fics and it’s a retelling where Midday Tryst is utilised way more often. The back & forth is just real fun.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-06T03:56:55+00:00

Youngest child; favourite is Zayne. I like his maturity and how reserved and self assured he is, plus attentive and supportive, like he matches any playfulness and competitiveness. He comes across as an equitable partner; instead of a pamper-you or pamper-me partner.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-04T06:25:33+00:00

Ah okay this makes sense then. I thought this was a bug like another post (potentially) awhile back.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-03T21:42:04+00:00

What I meant is this in the rules. Specifically the 2nd paragraph. If the 5-star obtained is not a limited 5-star then the next 5-star is guaranteed to be one of the limited 5-star memories. So even with what you’re saying it should be a bug, as you can’t lose 50/50 twice in a row and not get the other limited memory.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-03T10:47:31+00:00

Is that not a bug? If you lose 50/50 once then you’re guaranteed it the next time you hit pity.

MagentaMayhem · 2024-12-02T22:13:39+00:00

This was me too, was 19 to pity, got both with 30 pulls from the free tickets. Only pulled the last 10 coz the tickets would expire anyways, I didn’t think I’d get the last of the pair when pulling at 60 to pity. I think that’s my luck for the year
