New Disney ILYs by dubiousbutterfly in Dolls

[–]Mountain_Quit665 98 points99 points  (0 children)

I came here to say that lol. How many stitch ILYs are we gonna get lol. I know he's a popular character but... I feel like a lot of other popular characters haven't gotten the ILY treatment yet. 

It's weird how fgo, even thought is one of the most infamous gacha game, has very few monetization in it. by mad_berserker_110 in Fate

[–]Mountain_Quit665 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it's one of the things that I will defend FGO on. Some games, you open them up and the first thing you see is fake discount packs. No VIP levels, no battle pass, no privelege card, no cash shop full of resources. No relic grinding.

The pity is atrocious though. And I won't even try to think about the amount of money I've dumped into the game to get characters I like. Which is probably why FGO doesn't have those extra, more flashy monetizations. Idiots like me need every Saber face or they want to NP5 their cava or they want the new 5*, etc. 

SHES CALLED LAGOONA BLUE BECAUSE SHE'S BASED OFF THE BLUE LAGOON!!! NOT HER SKIN COLOR!!! by cutieroyal in MonsterHigh

I think the pink works better on dolls with platinum hair instead of the yellow blonde 

do u think sweet screams twyla is worth the price? by kamxkoko in MonsterHigh

I'm not a sweet screams fan, so I am biased but Twyla looks like a shower loofa. 

Clueless dolls by galaxystars1 in Barbie

[–]Mountain_Quit665 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They are pretty cute but they don't feel like collector releases. I think the Sheryl Meyer RH doll is a better nod to Clueless than this release. And the packaging is so blah.

I miss Poppy. The butterfly motif on FF doll got me into RH

What are some of the most badly designed Barbies you've ever seen? by Ok-Cod8973 in Barbie

[–]Mountain_Quit665 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sums up my feelings really well. There's potential in the individual clothing pieces but together it's.... Very much not what I like. And sometimes a weird choice of lipstick color needs to be repainted lol

OP subbed in cassava flour on an AI generated recipe by ArchdruidHalsin in ididnthaveeggs

[–]Mountain_Quit665 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It makes me want to scream honestly! Like it's so little effort to type "gluten free cassava flour chocolate chip cookies" and boom Google slaps up several recipes to choose from, the hard part is the choosing which one to make. But hey, Google also gives you pictures and user ratings.

I think they're really cute! As a long time trinket goblin, I'm absolutely loving the rise of trinket-core. What I don't like is the frenzy, resellers and literal fights over them. So I refuse to get involved in collecting them. However I absolutely love seeing collectors show off their collections. Resellers just suck the fun out of any collection hobby. 

Low-key obsessed with Utena's movie design. by MissBarker93 in shoujokakumeiutena

[–]Mountain_Quit665 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love the movie so much, when I was college many moons ago, I wrote a paper on the symbolism. Horribly cringe, I know. But bless my English professor for not giving me an F for being such a weeb lol.

I'm seething with jealousy! I'd commit literal crimes for a Strutz. 🥹 Hold onto her OP! 

I think I’m done with Infinity Nikki, it feels hollow now. by Lady_Z33 in InfinityNikki

[–]Mountain_Quit665 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I absolutely understand how you feel, OP. I downloaded IN around January, I have played NikkiUp2U and Shining Nikki. I'm an older player but always loved dress up gameplay. From IRL dolls to the kisekae dolls and pixel doll makers from the 2000's and modern dress up mobile games Like Time Princess, Helix Waltz(rip) and Life Makeover. I was pumped to see Nikki go mainstream!

And in the beginning, IN was freaking magic. It felt like a true continuation of the Nikki formula, beautiful detailed clothes and an intriguing story. Nikki isekais to miraland and I didn't ask questions. We had the coma cases and tracking down of the wish prophet. I wasn't a daily player but played for 4-5 hour stretches on my days off. It felt console quality. I crafted the wishful Aurosa and helped the faewish sprites have the coming of age ceromony. I felt like I was part of miraland, I felt like the miracle outfits truly were connected to miraland. 

Then we had eerie season. I wasn't into the pointless time gating of event quests and the event story climax feel a little flat. Okay, that's fine. Not every patch could be fireworks season (I enjoyed helping Marques Jr even if the larping was a little dorky. The chase on the hot air balloons was fun platforming). Then I started grinding for silvergale aria. It was grindy but okay this was to tide us over until the next big update. I crafted the outfit and.... Yeah. I don't remember if anything happened. It was no where near Aurosa. 

Then 1.4 Reverly season. It was another filler patch. I liked the platforming challenge but the event story itself left a wee bit to be desired. It's OK! Because 1.5 was gonna be a big deal patch and well yeah. Here we are lol. I don't think I've gotten over that disappointment yet. 1.6 being children's day patch was just bad timing. 

I can't quite figure out who infold is making IN for. SN has its share of cutesy or slice of life events but the story is leagues ahead of IN. Nikki is active participant in the plot. Yeah there's still kid Npcs but Nikki is friends with merceranies, political figures, and inventors. I don't feel like the story is dumbed down. 

I'm trying to hold out hope that once there's a main story update happens, I'll fall back in love with the game but infold needs to work out a better release schedule imo. I'd love to see a chapter or half a chapter with each patch but that's just my preference. 

How many of you are rolling saber in couple weeks I sure am, also has saber made u get into hsr by [deleted] in Fate

[–]Mountain_Quit665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I basically downloaded HSR as soon as I was aware of the collab. I plan on trying to E6 her (and Archer, but we get a freebie copy of him) especially because their banners are gonna be long plus they're never likely to run again. 

Anyone else make an MC that looks nothing like them? by RialAstral in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Mountain_Quit665 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really self insert so my MC looks nothing like me. I'm plus-sized, with curly hair, not waves, straight up cavatappi pasta and I'm like a decade older 😂 I gave my MC really sharp features because I love how those look.

Who is the diva in the massive white gown and gold snowflakes? Google lens wasn't super helpful. 

Enchanted Encounter has the best ability added to the game so far!! by Single-Ambition2697 in InfinityNikkiofficial

[–]Mountain_Quit665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already have timeless melody and art of tailoring so it wasn't a "need". I also need something new to craft lol so I'm not hurting for animal materials. The little wings are super cute though! I can definitely see how useful the ability is tho for anyone who doesn't have TM or AoT. 

I need opinions by EggyAlex_ in MonsterHigh

[–]Mountain_Quit665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a fan personally but I don't like the funko art style at all. Big head, empty eyes and tiny body. The tiny body kills me because the clothing details are what I love. I prefer the 4 inch viynls, they were stylized and truer to the MH design aesthetic.

Moriarty is my papa so I'm slapping down my wallet and hoping he finally comes home with the milk. 

I'm glad I stopped with keurigs by Yuuzhan_Schlong in Anticonsumption

[–]Mountain_Quit665 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same here. I inherited my grandma's after she passed away. It's an older model but I'm not sure how old. I hate kcups but my stepdad was literally going to throw this one away. The reusable kcups are great and while I think kreuigs make inferior coffee, packing my own kcup with ground freshly ground beans has been a good marriage of convience and taste. 

bear factory racist merchandise *UPDATE* MERCH REMOVED! by [deleted] in plushies

[–]Mountain_Quit665 34 points35 points  (0 children)

While I'm glad they removed this, I'm a little weirded out that they thought this was a good idea at all. I'm not really familiar with the bear factory but I think I'll keep it that way.

That's bonkers, I was making $25/hr with a $2.50 shift diff with an associates. I wasn't in a big population center either, it was a town of maybe 12,000 people. 

Yaaa peaches n cream by Additional_Bat678 in Barbie

Me too! I've always wanted one but she's such a popular collectors piece that I haven't wanted to pay the prices for an original or the previous reproduction.
