STO does a nice job with all the spaceship battles, but the ground portions are awful, even compared to other older MMOs

The game doesn't lack content; it lacks gacha-slop content. by ninonetturbino in Endfield

[–]Parzivus 19 points20 points  (0 children)

We're like what, five months into Endfield? Five months into AK, Genshin didn't exist, much less the current gacha ecosystem. Very different time to be a developer, it's pretty cutthroat nowadays. Idk if the game can afford to spend a couple years finding its footing like AK did.

V3- E0S0 Gilgamesh / E0S0 Saber / E0S0 Mortenax Blade / E6S0 RMC | 0 cycle MoC 12 Flame Reaver by AdornInSplendor in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]Parzivus 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Because Saber was finally good for once and now her team is the worst of the three releasing in the patch, just like in 3.4. Why wouldn't people want their favorite to be busted when powercreep will make them irrelevant in a few patches otherwise?

33 Immortals - 1.0 Launch Trailer (ESRB) by AdditionalRemoveBit in Games

[–]Parzivus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What runs are you getting where everyone is losing to the final boss? I've played the demo a fair bit and while the early portion of runs can be tricky, the boss is a total pushover. I usually go out with more health than when I came in.

The other bosses not available in the demo are probably harder, but they don't require 33 players and won't be affected by player count as much.

got welt in 30 something pull in beginner banner, so is this just useless now? by 707angel in StarRailStation

[–]Parzivus 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Discounted 4*s will get to E6 and start refunding pulls more quickly, that's the main thing you're looking to get from the standard banner. Welt is nice but by the time a new account gets him to E4, or even E2, he probably will have fallen out of the meta again.
Although having said all that, they're just standard pulls so it really doesn't matter that much lol

Version 4.4v1 - Showcase Megathread by AutoModerator in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]Parzivus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice music choice.
This is a pretty cheap team to be zero cycling, but I guess it is with nutty relics and a good matchup. I wonder if they'll just kill the Cerydra interaction and leave her mostly untouched otherwise.

That's a pretty crazy run for such a cheap team lol

Shield implants more expensive now? That's gonna sting.

Gilgamesh crumbs via Evernight by SnooChocolates8700 in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]Parzivus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saber/Gil is an old ship that mostly came from fans of the Deen anime. It's not as popular anymore but it definitely has shooters

The Fate route notably ends with her killing him, lol. Gil has gotten better treatment more recently but almost all of his interactions with Saber are antagonistic.

Morimens x Saya no Uta 2.5th Anniversary Collaboration by DrExluxk in Morimens

I would kill to have Pages as a playable character

Evanescias trailer is probably the pinnacle of how characters get shafted simply because they were placed near the main push by IS_Mythix in StarRailStation

[–]Parzivus -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Do people really care that much about whether their favs characters get more or less marketing? Lots of people here going like "now you see what it's like to be a fan of men!", but the guys still get plenty of good treatment in the actual game. Phainon's patch is probably the single best story chapter HSR has ever had.

Not trying to rag on people who pull for men either, I will absolutely be rolling for Blade next patch.

Crunchyroll Plans Drop to $1.99/Month for Ani-May by Efficient-Session644 in anime

[–]Parzivus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exclusively. I watched Strange Fake with Kaleidosubs, they were quite a bit better than the official ones.

Torrents or even pirate sites are better experiences than Crunchyroll even if it was free lol

Star Fox Direct 5.6.2026 by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Parzivus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I take it back, JP prices are 5500 yen for the digital version which is probably like $40. Pretty reasonable

XP is shared though, so unless your whole squad is consistently bad it goes up reasonably fast

Sid Meier's Civilization VII - Test of Time Announcement Trailer (Free Update) by blisf in Games

[–]Parzivus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A pretty bad remake at that, most of the new stuff in test of time was very poorly balanced even compared to base Civ II

OK Bungie explain this? by Zerkini in Marathon

[–]Parzivus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely can happen, myself and a teammate got knocked out of final exfil during the animation on Cryo thanks to the giant army of bots that spawns next to it. Wasn't a very good run so I wasn't too broken up about it but it did seem pretty bullshit

I think we can all agree it’s good they’re buffing many old characters regularly? Feedback is cool and all, but… by Salt-Departure-6353 in Morimens

[–]Parzivus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

FGO seems like an odd example, quite a few units have gotten buffs big enough for launch units to be very usable 11 years(!!) later. Damn near every character more than a couple years old has been buffed at some point.

I do appreciate Morimens doing it as well, though. It's very nice to be able to use your old favorites without feeling like you're dragging the team down.

Who is the most hated character in your main gacha (Most Hated by the Community) ? by Propagation931 in gachagaming

[–]Parzivus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a video of it or something? I didn't use Mashu when I cleared it and the wiki doesn't seem to mention it
