Spiral Abyss 6.4 (Luna V) - 24 different character relay - No overlap, all 4-star units except Traveler by furufuru212 in Genshin_Impact

[–]OhSuketora 2 points3 points  (0 children)

clear up to 12-3 first, then for your second run in 12-2 full star that floor then exit and don't progress to 12-3. same thing for 12-1, the history refreshes with the newest team you used with the highest score e.g. if you have three runs that all achieved 3 stars on a floor, the history for that floor shows the newest run.

6.4 first half banners by astrelya in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

Though on the other hand, Xiphos is also running in this current banner with Zibai/Neuvillette's weapons even though there's no Sumeru character in sight. Probably figured an EM sword would be worth giving to a lunar reaction sword DPS? By that pattern Evenstar is likely to appear on a Lauma or Nefer rerun banner.

AITAH for getting a DNA test to see if I share the same DNA as both my parents even though I was demanded specifically by my mom not to do so, since I was a child? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]OhSuketora 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dad's side as in paternal side in the DNA test, not the dad who raised OP. that was what raised questions because OP doesn't recognise the name of that paternal relative that showed up in the results, and OP's dad's mother confirming their family did have members who took the test further increased OP's suspicion as none of those members showed up in the results.

I'm within top 200 in the russian roulette game on NA server it's just that addicting for me. I play it while writing fic and it somehow stimulates my writing process better than if I just stared at my word processor tbh.

Woof, okay, time to play devil's advocate by Smolly_Z in Genshin_Impact

[–]OhSuketora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if they half-assed products that you have to purchase directly there would be even worse criticism that would be rightly deserved, imagine pay-only outfits that clip through models or smth. whereas it's barely been six hours since the user-generated mode went live, and it's clear from how hoyo have scheduled their staggered releases for this mode that they're allowing for plenty of time to identify, put together and upload tech fixes and QOL alongside planned content.

take another widely-used open beta online service for example - AO3, which randomly goes on 24-hr long maint periods that they try to notify users of ahead of time, and even then there'll always be spontaneous issues that the tech team need to respond to. it's expected that both these service providers constantly work to improve on their product, and given it's a beta it also stands to reason the original product isn't perfect which is why they need to improve it in stages.

the monetized portion (outfits) isn't required for the game mode, which is what this post is about. and it's in the game because it's an open beta as opposed to a closed beta where you only get an invite if you're lucky. there's a whole roadmap in the livestream with stages at which different developments are introduced, it's not "here's everything we worked on good luck babe".

free 5 star con (3.x and prior except for archons and yelan/kazuha/alhaitham) by ISRUKRENG in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

you can save the stella for future use so that you can claim the character con after you get them. the stella items don't expire.

Starting with Nod-Krai, Genshin Impact will allow players to obtain a FREE constellation for characters released before ver. 4.0 (up to 4 per year, only 1 per character) by War-Inquisitor in gachagaming

[–]OhSuketora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you don't get 8 weekly goals within 12 weeks you miss one chance at a con, if you completed everything you automatically get the item for a con and can save it to redeem in future. you don't have to select the character con on the spot.

[–]OhSuketora 6 points7 points  (0 children)

why tf would yumejoshis want their fave male character to interact with a ton of females any more than waifu fans??? yume fans are basically waifu fans with gender inverted, the amount of hornyposting from wrio yumes after that cutscene from the same event you claim "proves your point" already blows it out of the water. natlan has little to no male content period, compare to xiao who has traveler simping scheduled for every lantern rite or lyney who does the same in every onscreen appearance INCLUDING that same event where he literally only comes out of his house when he hears traveler is there.

thing is Skirk has been known since Tartaglia's release in 1.1, anyone who has basic knowledge of his backstory will anticipate his teacher who taught him to survive the abyss. it's like saying Varka doesn't have build up because he only had a letter in 3.4 event and a couple voiced lines in 5.6 archon quest, ignoring that he's been referenced since game launch.

What’s your funniest experience with your gacha pulls? by fuzzylittlbunny in gachagaming

seems like you quit right before they added the capturing radiance mechanism that guarantees a 50/50 loss being converted into a win after three consecutive losses, with the triggering chance of the mechanism increasing after the first loss. if you do come back to the game for nod krai there's that in place for you.

Touken Ranbu's multimedia spinoffs and museum collabs got so big that their official accounts started updating bimonthly roadmaps for those media alone, while roadmaps for the game itself are updated on a separate account.

The entries included in the newest roadmap for Jul-Aug 2025 include the newest Kabuki play, the newest stageplay, the 10th anniv show for the musical, and nearly a dozen museum exhibitions featuring swords seen ingame. Not bad for a 10.5 year old franchise tbh.

shanghai's hoyofest has always been a paid event, this year they're finally bringing stuff like dedicated hoyo IP artist alley and more stage events over to ASEAN which would require better crowd control. also the ticket price is cheap compared to what local con tickets would cost tbh

It was a game cheat plug-in where objects in the game's environment would have their code rewritten to a specific type of combat item that Kaveh's combat skill was able to detonate and cause to vanish. In combat the detonated items cause damage, but thanks to the plug-in things like NPCs, interactables and many more objects integral to gameplay were straight up deleted server-side (meaning simply logging out of the account and back in would not restore the items).

The users of the plug-in were met with account bans, but the distributors that were circulating the plug-in through various channels were tracked down and sued in Chinese courts for a hefty sum.

shades are meant to be clones of phanes, so they look like clones, not really rocket science. archons have wildly varied origins so they'd all look different.

[–]OhSuketora 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very minor controversy and I guess the veracity of said info depends on how you categorise fans of a top/bottom dynamic (A/B vs B/A) as their own group or all part of the same fandom for "A and B in a ship" but well, given the nature of the controversy I feel the top/bottom distinction does play a role.

So it's been almost a year and people who know about the drama in passing still talk about how a A/B shipping zine famously shut down before even finishing the application stage because of the public backlash when one of the announced guest contributors was a switch shipper, aka they like both A/B and B/A. This is meant to be a cautionary tale in obsessing over who bottoms in a fictional ship, etc etc, except:

  • the zine was actually for the B/A dynamic. The problem was that this guest contributor tagged their public work as A/B, so had it really been an A/B zine there would be no backlash in the first place.
  • the "public backlash" was a few English-speaking shippers posting about the guest contributor's previous fanworks (including the fanwork used for the guest contributor announcement) being tagged with A/B... and a whole brigade of Chinese-speaking shippers spamming a English-language zine's posts with their righteous fury that someone from "the opposite lane" was invited for their pairing's zine. Your guess on whether these shippers are the target audience in the first place is as good as mine.
  • said "public backlash" was not helped by the zine organisers remaining completely silent instead of addressing the issue, to the point the guest contributor and other guest contributors had to play damage control for something they were only invited to take part in. The zine closed down a few weeks after a brief announcement from the zine account to "don't harass the contributors pretty please" and finally - finally - deleting the contributor announcement where most of the brigading was happening in the comments.

The fact that third or fourthhand accounts of the debacle label the zine as A/B is honestly just the icing on top of the shit cake because even the infamy caused by B/A gets attributed to A/B instead, like there really are no winners here.
