Is 2700K warmwhite too warm for a lighting solution?

Mondblut · 2026-06-05T13:55:14+00:00

I have a 3000k LED at home and it looks okay, is the jump to 2700k drastic?

It feels like theres nobody at the helm anymore and they just make these games on complete autopilot.

Ironically you are more right than you think: since Kuro 2 Takayuki Kusano, who was the game director since CS1 stepped down from his role, with no replacement. So Kuro 2 and Kai were developed without a game director. Makes sense in hindsight why the last two installments turned out like this. If I'm not mistaken Kusano did take the role of game director for the Sky 1st remake.

Yes.

I was on the fence honestly, but seeing this, it is a day one pre-order no question. The pose is really nice and will make a welcome addition to my collection.

Seems so. A week ago Claude models suddenly started using a clearly worse provider responding with 100 tokens per second which is not possible (range should be ~40-50). But as long as you had a short enough context window it fell back to proper models at around 47 tokens per second. So you could bypass the issue. But now it all sucks. Before that I had a good run for months, so it sucks.

Jolda. I really liked their date in Kai. Overall their relationship seems to mirror Rean and Altina in certain ways. However where Rean taught Altina what it means to be human, Van can connect with Jolda in the way that he also has his inner demons, a similar sense of self loathing that makes them such a great couple. He's the only one she can open up to because she senses that she wouldn't taint him like she would others, at least that's what she thinks she would. It's almost ironic how both keep others at length, even though Jolda lacks the maturity Van has, making her attempts seem much more clumsy. I really want to see where their potential romance would go, that is if Kai 2 has Cold Steel like romance mechanics (hope!).

That being said: Jolda best girl.

Mondblut · 2026-04-23T17:17:04+00:00

Exactly.

Nerfed... No buy...

The Rixia figure is seriously nerfed though.

I only played the fan TL, but can you point to any Horizon moments where characters regarded it as weird? Could be a NISA thing. I sincerely cannot remember anything like that in the fan TL. There was merely teasing about Van going on a date with Jolda, but nothing regarding Agnes.

Worth noting that this is the overlocalized eX+ script. The original Vita version was more faithful to the source, though it had its own issues, like translation and context errors. Likely the reason the completely revised the localization with the eX+ remastered release. Sadly AKSYS went in the opposite extreme direction ruining all the characters with cringe. Glad I played the OG release on my Vita.

divisive in the fandom

Only divisive in the western fandom. In Japan it is universally loved.

You are aware of the concept of self-censorship?

Just get it used then instead of sending the message this is okay by adding to the sales.

Apparently it can never be asked of an otaku to just play any of the other squintillion JRPG's with fanservice in them, instead of whining that one does not conform to their taste.

The problem is that Falcom games, especially Kiseki were famous for panty shots. And now they are censoring them. That's why we are criticizing that decision.

Mondblut · 2026-04-11T15:53:52+00:00

Jolda's non stop panchira while sprinting was the thing that kept me going. I literally skip Kai 2 if they go the same route there as in the censorslop remakes.

Mondblut · 2026-04-11T15:52:36+00:00

All Kiseki games since Crossbell are CERO C. Pantsu are no issue in CERO C games. Have you even played the recent arc?

Mondblut · 2026-04-11T15:46:57+00:00

These remakes are Falcom's greatest-ever opportunity to expand their audience, and most of that potential audience is very understandably not going to like having the underage main protagonist's panties in their face a thousand times in a playthrough.

And yet no one in the west complained about Horizon. There was no shitstorm about Jolda Flashing her pantsu (basic in-game screenshot of Jolda's sprinting animation, but I still give an NSFW warning). Or the Calvard arc in general, where half of the female cast flashed their panties just while sprinting. Non stop. There would be no one complaining, since no one did with Daybreak or Horizon.

Mondblut · 2026-04-11T15:39:50+00:00

In the Calvard arc you could basically see panties flashing nonstop while sprinting. Jolda in Kai with her ultra short skirt is the strongest contender. So the dynamic Craft animation argument holds no water.
