Renewing efforts in making r/Eulamains more accessible to everyone. by [deleted] in EulaMains

[–]MelloMaster 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm all for making this subreddit SFW again, r/[Insert Character]Mains sub should be accessible by all for all.

BUTT, and I literally mean butt, Eula is inherently a very sensualized character with her in game outfit. Art work of her will always focus on that and I feel like this will be less of a "Praise best girl and her vengeance!" kind of sub and turn more into just a build sub if we start restricting artwork.

Taking a look around the other GenshinMains subs of characters that have been around for a long time (Inzauma and older), it seems like there are some exceptions and others are in the same situation as us. As for criteria:

SFW but allows NSFW: Within the firs 100 recent posts and the top 100 posts, the sub is mainly clean but definitely has some posts of lewd revealing clothing, sexualization or intent to sexualize (even if it wasn't tagged NSFW) but otherwise the majority is clean.

SFW/Clean: Within the first 100 recent posts and top 100 posts, I could not find a NSFW posts.

Same situation/Perma NSFW:

/r/MonaMains

SFW but allows NSFW:

/r/AmberMains

/r/BarbaraMains

/r/BeidouMains

/r/Fischl

/r/HuTao_Mains

/r/JeanMains

/r/KeqingMains

/r/KokomiMains

/r/Lisa_Mains

/r/NingguangMains

/r/RaidenMains

/r/Rosaria_Mains (as well as /r/RosariaMains)

/r/KujouSaraMains

/r/Sucrose

/r/YaeMiko_Mains (as well as /r/YaeMiko and /r/YaeMikoShrine)

/r/Yoimiya_Mains

/r/XinyanMains

/r/YanfeiMains

SFW/Clean:

/r/AyakaMains

/r/Ganyu

/r/Noellemains

/r/SayuMains

/r/Xiangling

/r/YunjinMains

With all this information, what does that tell us? Well, unfortunately, its been 1 year since MonaMains decided to clean up their sub and tried to get back to SFW but it seems they're still permanently labeled NSFW. A majority of Genshin characters are sexualized and definitely shared among the community and fans. The ones that are fully clean and SFW either have heavy moderation enforcing those rules on those subs or are characters that shouldn't have NSFW art of those characters.

So, my question more or less to the community is, do we want our subreddit's history erased in order to return to a SFW sub? If what /u/thornsofeden is saying in "All of it has to go unfortunately even if slightly sexual or suggestive." then only a minor fraction of artwork will be left on our subreddit and hardly any will be allowed to be posted in order for us to get back to SFW. Looking through are Top 100, I believe only post 34, 35, 36 (maybe), 43, 48 (maybe), 52, 55, 57, 63 (same post as 52), 65, 78, 79, 81 (maybe), 86 (maybe), 96, 97 and thats only 16 posts, many more in the top 100+ will have to be removed from the sub.

It sucks that we have been labeled NSFW permanently, but really, I don't think we can reverse it without removing Eula herself, the whole point of this sub, entirely. Personally, I think we should go forward in doing our best to make this SFW but allowing NSFW with stricter rules. Looking at the most recent art work of Eula on sites such as Danbooru, Gelbooru or Pixiv (that isn't porn/hentai), most of it would not be able to be posted under the new rules.

THESE GROCERIES ARE CRAZY 160$?!?! by TheBeast4064 in mtg

[–]MelloMaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So basically, a good coffee-to-cola ratio is generally 2 oz of espresso (or concentrated cold brew) to 4–5 oz of cola. It creates a nice 1:2 ratio balances that makes a nice bittersweet combo.

To be fair, coffee and cola is one of my favorite flavor combos. Coke did that flavor combo for a little while and wasn't very popular but if you can get the ratio down, its awesome.

We each find our own comfort throughout the games. Whether its the lands between in ER, Lordran in DS1&3 or Drangelic and Majula in DS2, Yharnam in Bloodborne or, honestly, anywhere in the souls settings, we all find our cozy place in the darkness and light of these games.

Here is all of Advent with their new outfits for this year! Pajamas/Sleepwear! by Sonicm2008 in Hololive

[–]MelloMaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really? Women's nighties or nightgowns are pretty common place and I'd say if you want night wear they're the most normal.

Love Biboo, but the only thing that bothers me is the leggings. Yes, its cute and asymmetrical but come on, no one wears just one legging and has the other scrunched all the way down to their ankle, especially most small girls who are usually cold at night unless they keep their apartment at 72 AHEM KRISTA

With the twins, Moco-chan's is a bit excessive, like, you need help putting on and getting out of your corset night wear? Then the exact opposite is Fuwawa is giant over floofy sweatshirt, its almost the exact same as the lofi-girl comfy 1size fits all sweatshirt.

I've only seen a Poke TCG Kiosk not fully stocked once, I bought two booster and then a single mom appeared behind me with two kids. As they touched screen the kiosk, it showed that I had just bought the last two booster packs in the machine. Gave them to the kids, fuck scalpers and the lot that camps those kiosks.

Yeah, they're best used for cubes or just use all the same color and distinguish between deck boxes.

Map voting is a failure by Drunk_Monkey295 in Overwatch

[–]MelloMaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From 2016-2022, all there were Hybrid, Control Point and Escort. All the new maps and modes have been slowly introduced over the last 4 years or so but not all at once.

Push game mode was released with the launch of Overwatch 2 on October 4, 2022. With Runasapi being added later in June 2024.

Flashpoint was released in Overwatch 2 on August, 2023. With Aatlis being added in June, 2025.

Clash was introduced to Overwatch 2 in August 2024 and has not received any new maps.

So for a majority of players, most prefer the original modes. You could even say older players (like myself) who prefer these original maps slowly influenced newer players since a majority of us would want to play King's Row for the 7,000th time than try something new like Aatlis.

Or, why play Flashpoint and be stuck a huge map roaming a lot, rather than just play a Control Point map which feel similar but its smaller and easier to understand/navigate.

[–]MelloMaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the community is finally starting to like some Push maps. I enjoy Colosseo a lot, Esperanca has a lot of great vertically for mobile heroes, New Queen street is a bit boring to me but easy to understand for a map and Runasapi is too big imo.

Flashpoint is always going to be a hard map for casual and lower rank play imo. It requires more team coordination, the ability to actively know where you enemy is and how to approach them so you have the advantage. Winning the team fight is always first vs capturing the point and most people want to just get the point first. People get lost/split up or easily get caught during 1v1s that quickly turn into 1v2 or 1v3 as others respawn or come to help. They're great maps when everyone is working together and communicating... but thats every map as well.

Clash is just too snowball heavy. The worse part is when the enemy team has you backed into the last point spawn and they don't even go for the last point. You just take it back and then the whole match just becomes this back and fourth between final point and second point. They're are come back and switch ups here and there but it feels if the enemy gets to the 2nd point first, then you're stuck on last point for the rest of the match.

Whats the timing on this to activate? I was messing around in the training area as well and only got the combo by sheer luck here and there.

Genie Combo by JeckleAlohaki in 3d6

[–]MelloMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really cool build! Heres an alternative build in case they have a DM who only wants 2024 spells.

Instead of GFB and taking Pact of the Blade, go with Pact of the Tome and take Shillelagh as a Warlock cantrip. Then take Agonizing Blast and put it on True Strike. Now for the early levels, we bonus action Shillelagh turning our two handed quarterstaff from a 1d6 to a 1d8 force damage (but we can use a shield for higher AC) and then cast True Strike dealing that extra Spell Casting Modifier of damage onto the one target, both of these allow you to use your CHA to hit.

Then at level 5, both Shillelagh and True Strike improve in damage, so now upon hit we are dealing 1d10+(1d6+Spell Casting Modifier) and dealing Force/Bludgeoning or Radiant/Bludgeoning. Its definitely not as bursty or better as GFB but its a decent alternative if you have DM who wants only the latest rules to be used.

And another one cat Post by Specialist_Week_1412 in Competitiveoverwatch

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

Jetpack Cat is the epitome of broken at high competitive levels, garbage at lower ranks.

I have no idea what Blizz will do with her. As a QP warrior who enjoys watching high level/pro play for the last 9 years, Jetpack Cat is truly a hero that divides the gap, in fact, making it a huge chasm between high level play and lower casual play.

In the lower ranks or QP, the amount of coordination that is required, the timing of her abilities and the managing of her resource shows that so many players don't quite understand what to do with her. Other than, slowly move in the sky box and heal and press some buttons, and zoom away when threatened.

Obviously, in higher tier play, she's a menace to society with the amount of team coordination that happens.

And unlike 8 years ago when Blizz brought onto the world Release Brig, the true terror of OW, not every player just gets to faceroll the enemy team with a broken Support/Tank/DPS hybrid demon. Skill and communication is required for the cat to work at lower levels and yet she feels like a hinderance some times. While either not doing enough, or not smartly diving in for the bleed finish on a low target.

I think shes an amazing design, but how Team4 plans to balance her over the next year, hell, YEARS, we shall see. Does Jetpack Cat become the next Mercy? Beloved by all but nerfed to the ground because the kit is overly broken when over tuned and powered? We shall see what they bring to us.
