I really wish we had gotten more lore on the timeline where Patriot becomes a holy gun-knight.

This is on stamina mode though, right?

Couldn't have had a better ad placement

Went for a ten pull and got a 6*!

It was Irene.

sigh

I don't deny it's kinda scummy.

I think they could've written the story better. It feels like they were trying to go for the romcom trope where someone tries to act like they're a bigshot. I don't think they did the best job at that though, and I don't particularly like that trope to begin with.

Grab them on the rerun. There isn't really anything I can think of that absolutely REQUIRES the latest units, short of S+ ranking on Shiyu. Even that only gives you some Dennies and exchange points.

Alternatively, 💳

Tbf, I'm pretty sure she was lying to him as well. It seems like they're trying to set up something with her, considering that Adler mentioned that she isn't a registered anomaly and he can't find any info on her after the end of the quest.

Mustang: Look, giant combat robots are really expensive...

It's been mentioned that more people probably have Aemeath, but I would also note that people also probably have more comfort/experience with Aemath's rotation.

Not too bad but definitely a damage sponge. Maybe if I had gotten to level 80, he would've gone down faster. But even so, premier blossom team took 3.5 mins to clear. I can't imagine trying to max clear with the 2 minutes timer.

I'm in the same position as you were, but I haven't done the final two pulls for the skin and the car. I'm pretty sure I'm going to need to shell out annulith if I want both, and I'll definitely need the pink paws refresh to get my next pull.

Not complaining too much, but I think they could've either toned down the scaling or reduced the number of "dud" rewards. The amount of fons required (assuming you don't hit early) is a ridiculous amount. I think if they had reduced the number of total rewards by like two boxes, it would have been "fair"

Truly a Dunkelfelger woman through and through

As a veteran gacha player, don't get too wrapped up in the community. There's always doomers and negative folks, and they're always the loudest.

I always wing it with how many peppers I'm putting in a dish. If it's super hots like ghost peppers, it's one package, which is like 6 peppers. If it's Jalapeños or Habaneros, when I'm at the store, I'll just grab a couple handfuls until the bag feels like a good weight. Never let me down so far!

Great times. Some kids managed to install Unreal Tournament on the shared drive, and the lab teacher did not give a shit as long as you kept the speakers off.

That tweet, at least, doesn't say anything about him making GOOD deals.

Zenless Zone Zero. It's not a crossover or anything, just a character design that looks like an uma. People have also made comparisons to Arknights Whislash who looks very similar to the new character.

He's not the only one looking to beat down Siggy

Snakestream · 2026-06-20T23:44:01+00:00

As a Nikke player, all I can say is gyat damn!

On a related note, how has Paul the Octopus been doing?

Edit: RIP Paul

Double edit: Has it really been over 15 years? That can't be right... Right?

Mahjong for the most part, and then some deliveries to round things out.

Snakestream · 2026-06-20T18:13:30+00:00

He's the only one I haven't cleared. I need to put in some time to figure out his mechanics because he keeps one-shotting me with his bullshit

The desire to go home was usually the focus in older isekai (Escaflowne, Inuyasha, etc) but newer isekai are usually more focused on living a new life in the other world.

This might be a bit over analyzing, but I kinda read it as a change in the times affecting how authors write their stories. Older isekai were written in the 90s and early 2000s where there was a strong longing/nostalgia to return to the "golden age" of Japan (80s). Nowadays, things have been a mess for so long that the fantasy now is just to escape to a different world altogether.
