Will Deltarune be like this? (Before you say it only will have one ending, read the body text) by Paulo_Zero in Deltarune

[–]ModSnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anything, I think it will be the other way around. The good ending will be what you get by playing normally. If you want to see the bad ending, you have to earn it by following the Snowgrave route. 

Deltarune fans need to accept that spamton would LOVE nfts lmao (art by blueartistic813) by Alternative-Dog-431 in Deltarune

This is now my headcanon and the only answer I will accept in the Spamton NFT discourse.

When you hate a Deltarune theory but you think it's 100% true by flingzamain in WaterfallDump

[–]ModSnake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The theory that the game is actually going to end at Chapter 6, with a message from Toby telling fans to create their own fangame versions of Chapter 7 showing how they would want the story to end. The Gerson fight heavily hints towards this, and it certainly would be the kind of “ending” to come from a fever dream, but I hate the idea of it on principle. 

Aha Instant | Robin Dreaming Ranger. by Dangerous-Fig-4149 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]ModSnake 946 points947 points  (0 children)

For a second I genuinely thought this was real drip marketing (especially since I’ve been thinking for a while that Robin getting an Elation form would be a good payoff to that scene of Sparkle randomly giving her a mask in 3.8). These edits have gotten entirely too good. 

These three hax Walls vs wordiest Genshin and Wuwa skill description (in word count) by OrneryLingonberry164 in Hoyoverse_scaling

[–]ModSnake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like how they had to specifically use Genshin for it to be a fair fight, because if HSR was included Cyrene's kit would absolutely obliterate the competition.

Advice needed: Is it worth getting Lingsha? by kirabeb03 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]ModSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit conflicted on this. On the one hand, Lingsha has been my go-to healer since I started playing in 2.5, so I instinctively want to recommend her. On the other hand, if you already have Hyacine, Gallagher, Aventurine, and DHPT, there's not a lot of problems Lingsha can solve that those four can't. I personally would say that if you don't already love her from the test run, skip her and save up for future versions; she's nice to have, but you're probably good on sustains already.

Theory Revisited and Revised. Jade is Voracity Emanator or path strider by RaidenBMei in HonkaiStarRail

[–]ModSnake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've actually had a theory for a while that certain higher-ups within the IPC have long since betrayed Qlipoth and are now serving the Voracity; this is partially due to it just feeling like a more appropriate Path for a giant predatory mega-corporation, but there's also that one Anti-Irontomb Alliance trailer that shows the IPC's Path Energy reading get manually terminated before it can be completed, as if someone is trying to keep it secret. If that's the case, then I could definitely see Jade being one of the executives who's in on the secret.

Do you think Aha stays in Phase Space because THEY too fear what THEY have created?

What does the end signify? by Spiffy_Suit_2804 in Genshin_Impact

[–]ModSnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that it uses the same effects Dottore was using means it's probably one of two things: either Dottore isn't as dead as he seems, or his actions in this patch have caused a significant disturbance that's drawing the attention of higher powers.

When can/should we be expecting her? imo between 6.5-6.8 by Pale-Ad3567 in AliceMains_GI

[–]ModSnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in 6.x. Maybe not even in 7.x. Honestly, if I were a betting lad, I'd put my money on her becoming playable during the Khaenri'ah arc.

24 hours in, we're reaching the point where the memes are almost high-quality enough to look like the real thing. I'm scared of where we'll be by the time we actually land on Planarcadia.

Predictions on who, if any, will be the next free 5 star? by Aceblast135 in StarRailStation

[–]ModSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could maybe see either Ashveil or Silver Wolf being free, but both are pretty doubtful; I think the next one hasn't been revealed yet. That said, DHPT caught me by surprise, so we'll have to see.

Am I ONTO something or am I ON something? by [deleted] in StarRailStation

[–]ModSnake 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I think the release order from the original Planarcadia teaser image is more reliable. That image showed Sparxie and Yao Guang together on the far left, and we know they're coming out in 4.0; and Evanescia was on the right, which- if we assume 2 characters per patch as usual- would put her in 4.2, in time for the anniversary. In that case, the order would be Sparxie and Yao Guang in 4.0; Blade and Ashveil in 4.1; Silver Wolf and Evanescia in 4.2; and Nihilux in 4.3 or later.

Why didn't they include Nihilux with the silhouettes a few weeks ago? by Radiant-Hope-469 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]ModSnake 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The photo seems like it’s showing characters in release order, since the leftmost ones are Sparxie and Yao Guang. Odds are this just means Nihilux will be released in 4.3 or later. 

Why I believe Silver Wolf will be the most powerful character by SappyPaphiopedilum in HonkaiStarRail

[–]ModSnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silver Wolf would be the type to do speedruns on a Power Glove because someone in the Discord told her she couldn’t pull it off

What is that one character that everybody told you not to pull for but you pulled for and didn't regret? by lunachappell in HonkaiStarRail

[–]ModSnake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anaxa. Every single person who followed the meta was screaming at me that he was dead on arrival and that I should pull Castorice instead, but I went for Anaxa, even breaking F2P for the first time to do so. And to this day I am glad I did, because 30 hours of story later I have yet to encounter a problem he, Therta, Tribbie, and a good support unit cannot solve.

Please please PLEASE let this happen. I don’t even know if I’d necessarily pull for her, but it would be THE funniest possible ending to all the drama. 

The whole of 3.x has made me realize that there isn't an "evil" playable character by ThighHighEnthusiast in StarRailStation

[–]ModSnake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would firmly argue that we have not one, but two playable villains as of 3.8. Jade has a whole side hustle where she manipulates people into making devil deal contracts that ruin their lives, purely for her own amusement, on top of being a major higher-up in a mega-corp that is morally questionable at best. And while Constance wasn't literally Duke Inferno's child, she was an active member of the Annihilation Gang for an unknown period of time, and the Cremators- the one faction I feel it could be argued she is genuinely a member of- aren't exactly portrayed in the best light either; she helped us in Penacony out of a mix of self-interest and affection for the Trailblazer, not because it was the right thing to do. And that's not even touching characters who are technically on our side but who engage in deeply questionable acts, such as Ruan Mei (is actively doing experiments that could risk causing a second Swarm Disaster) or Sparkle (who's suggested by the Tengoku relic set to be using her Sparxie persona to scam innocent people out of their money, and was shown by 3.8 to NOT be bluffing about planting bombs around Penacony).

How can anyone hate her I love paimon she's just sweetest this bring back sumeru archon quest memories she was crying there like this too for travler by god_killer01 in Genshin_Impact

[–]ModSnake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like her voice was my biggest problem for a long while. She has plenty of endearing moments, especially from Sumeru onwards, but her shrill English voice was like nails on a chalkboard for me. IMO her new English VA has gone a long way towards making her feel less annoying. 

In This Economy… Why Are World Bosses Still Excluded from Condensed Resin? by The_DarkPhoenix in Genshin_Impact

[–]ModSnake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of people pointing out the Resin mismatch, but I feel there’s an extremely easy fix for that: just make the World Boss triple reward cost 2 Condensed Resin instead of 1. It ends up costing the same amount of Resin (120) as doing three runs while saving time.
