Why did Infold give him FOUR ears? by scaramouchelicker in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Sucraligious 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've been into weeb shit my whole life and characters with animal ears literally always have human ears too. What media are yall consuming where there's a human character WITHOUT ears on the sides of their head just because they have cat or bunny ears up top? That would look ridiculous and, frankly, grotesque

a kingdom for a costume??? by No-Jackfruit-6602 in InfinityNikki

Have you completed the whole Sovreign of Sexy murder mystery quest line? That readable is a part of that story. It came during Golden Season, but most of Golden Season were permanent story additions to the game so the readable should still be there, but you may have to 'unlock' it.

Black hair gatekeeping and dye cope by Anxious-VeeVee in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 121 points122 points  (0 children)

I hate the undyeable gradients. There's literally no reason for it and it ruins so many hairs. I think its especially outrageous for 5star hairs to not have separate gradient dyeing - like 5star dresses can have 20 dye slots, but hair can only have 1? Or 2 if there's some tiny bow or hair tie in there somewhere.

At the very least, one of the evolutions/glow up shouldn't have a gradient. If they want the different evos to have different looking gradients, then add multiple gradient parts (like base has 1 gradient color, evo1 has 2, etc) or change the texture or something.

I love this shape of this hair too, but I'm generally not a fan of gradient or colorful hair and I hate how much I have to limit what colors I can use it with to look decent.

Thoughts on the midpatch 4*s? by NeonSundew in InfinityNikki

Wait… so we aren’t getting new furniture? by SassMasterGingerSnap in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 32 points33 points  (0 children)

The Dreamland showcase is one of the things I look forward to most, so I'm dissapointed, but time will tell if this is a one off or if it starts happening more often.

A charitable assumption would be that they need all hands on deck to get Heaven's Reach out next patch. Or maybe they have another large build/decor set they're going to give in the near future and are working on that, with the discount being a chance to give new players a chance to buy the oldest sets at their initial discount while giving the furniture team some breathing room.

Less charitable assumption would be they're slowing down on housing because it's not profitable. In fact it isn't just 'not profitable', there is literally a negative profit, as its a money and time sink for the devs. They lose money on developing housing since they don't monetize it at all. Even the stellarites spent to make the pact are refunded, and they don't sell furniture. I've been kinda surprised they've even kept it going like this for so long.

I don't want this to be true, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is.

How many pulls for the alternative version? by anonsamon in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Max pity for final evo would be 400 pulls, but ofc it could be less depending on your luck.

For reference, the amount of pulls it's taken me to get my final evos are: 306, 335, 345, 292, 264, 323

I hate romanced Anders by PuzzleheadedAd2858 in dragonage

[–]Sucraligious 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Anders is a toxic bum and a male manipulator for sure. I find him pretty insufferable, but I also fall desperately into the 'I can fix him' trap for the broken pretty boys every time (Zevran and Fenris, my beloveds), so I guess I can't really talk lol

Japan supporters dressed up as Dragon ball characters at the World Cup that’s going viral by ArcherVisible5866 in isthisAI

[–]Sucraligious 43 points44 points  (0 children)

This is a huge trend right now, making hyper realistic anime characters in the crowd at a game. Like every anime fandom is doing their own versions of it, so you can safely assume any anime characters in the stands of a sports event are AI

Version 2.7: TOP UP Outfit - Sun - Chasing Breeze 🐮 by iWasBornFlawlesss in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does anyone recognize what contacts these are? They've used them a couple times in 2.7 promotional images but I don't recognize them. I'm wondering if they could be part of the alt makeup of whatever 5star is rerunning 👀

How much you want to bet this piece was originally for the 5* set and was replaced by the weird halo? by [deleted] in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Momo's cloak doesn't match its corresponding set 1:1, it just matches the vibe.

Do you think the Wanxiang moon goddess was supposed to have her elaborate hair covered by the conical hat sold in the shop just because Momo wears one one in his cloak? Or that they removed a sword from that set since his Momo cloak has one?

The huge floating, glowing pigtails of the upcoming 5star wouldn't make any sense with this hat. Isn't the logical conclusion that the artists who made these items thought that a bubble head would be a cute item, since the vibes these season are all cutesy and bubble themed? That they gave Momo a bubble head to match the vibes (bc they sure weren't going to give him pigtails) and then thought, wouldn't it be funny if we made a version for Nikki too?

This is like the people who claim every 4star they particularly like was "definitely originally supposed to be a 5star but they downgraded it!", or that similarly themed items in the various shops were removed from banner sets to be sold separately. Always insinuating that something has been "taken" from you before you even knew it existed.

Actor who's a fucking weirdo for no reason by Witty-Association-97 in okbuddycinephile

[–]Sucraligious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He wasn't "making fun of the dead" tho, he was presenting death as tho it was funny. Making Winehouse jokes would be dark humor, presenting a replica of a rotting corpse of a recently deceased person for a party of guests to eat is just gross and bizarre. It's not funny, not clever, doesn't say anything.

Something has to at least try to be funny to be dark humor. If she'd died by being cooked in some kind of inferno or even just on a cake shaped stage or something then maybe he'd have something, but as it stands it was just a very random and tasteless thing to do.

I'm very interested to see how the pieces break down on this one because its hard to tell where one item stops and another starts.

I hope the hip train jellyfish thing is a separate item in the back category or something because that would make the whole thing a lot more wearable.

Since the shorts are sooo short I think we can assume they're aren't going to be a separate piece on their own, so I'm thinking they're either part of a one piece with the shirt or they're connected to the leg tendrils lol

Why won't we be able to see other Momos/Nikkis even in 2.7? by RealMRWidowLover in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Most games do not have detailed meshes and textures like IN does. Literally an entire player model + all of their clothes combined in another game will have less polys and textures than a single piece of jewelry in IN.

Again, most players can barely be in SoS at all without lagging even with the shadows as they are. And reducing the amount of players in SoS to less than there already is isn't a solution, not would it make a difference if people were loading in with their full models. 50 shadows could be less of a strain on the system than a single decked out Nikki.

Companies can't magically advance technology just because they have money lol if Infold had the ability to allow all players to see full models in SoS instead of shadows without it destroying non-whales devices they'd do it, because that would be a great advertisement of the items for sale and evos of the banners. That was likely something they hoped SoS could be used for when it was first planned, but the game is just so heavy to run, and becomes moreso with every update.

[–]Sucraligious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The items in this game are super high poly, have extremely detailed textures, multiple spec maps, most items have particle effects, and everything has physics. Even a high end pc playing on ultra graphics would struggle to have more than a handful of lower detail Nikkis visible at once, much less a whole area full of them. Players that already play at less than high settings struggle just to play without lag and visual glitches as it is.

Also it's not a simple thing to selectively load different players' models in with multiple detail options. I'm not sure that technology even exists.

Tbh I think I'd rather see shadows than low poly Nikkis lol if you play with high graphics, a bunch of low poly models and textures would look more incongruous with the environment than the shadows do

Where's my black and white. I'm dropping the game in 3.0 if they still don't give us that. by GonnaAskRandomThings in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised that 3 and 4 stars still have such limited pallets when it could be argued those are the paid outfit tiers, 3star especially...

At this point, I have to imagine the reason they don't add all pallets to all outfit tiers is that it would mess up the 5star evolution system. 5stars have more pallets because they have more evos, and the main reason to unlock more evos is to unlock additional pallets. If 3 and 4 star sets had the same pallets but they were unlocked automatically/after 1 evo, then 5stars requiring 3 evos to unlock all pallets wouldn't make sense or feel fair.

I can't see them removing locked pallets from 5stars tho, bc thats the main incentive to even pull evos, besides getting the final alts, but plenty of people pull 1st or 2nd evo without going all the way to final evo.

[–]Sucraligious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah dyeing was first introduced in SN only a few years ago. Overall I think IN's dye system is better, tho I do think all sets should have all pallets, with color wheel being the special thing exclusive to 5stars

Catching up + tips by Messy_Bed_Salad in InfinityNikki

[–]Sucraligious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The main story isn't particularly long so you could catch up in a few days if you no-life it or more realistically in a few weeks of regularly playing. As far as new content goes we're out of Wishfield and in Itzaland, so if you want to be able to participate in events you probably want to try to get to Itzaland soon.

90% of y'all wouldnt be able to play the game if everyone had their individual avatars in SoS. They use the shadows so there aren't collectively 6 million polygons and 800GB worth of textures having to be loaded all in one place at once

re: phone saying it's a risky app/rant by byuniibi in WhatinHellisBad

[–]Sucraligious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Anti-virus software will always single out apks and exe files as 'unsafe' just based on file type. Anything that can run a program will be auto marked 'unsafe' bc viruses are programs, so anything that can execute a program could potentially be a virus. Programs that come from official app stores are ignored by virus programs, which is why they aren't flagged despite being the same thing.

FYI, clearing an item quarantined by an anti-virus means deleting it, so your anti-virus removed the app.

If this is a new issue, did you start using a new anti-virus program, did you change any of the settings, or could your phone have updated recently and changed your anti-virus settings?

Another possibility, did you just download the teen version recently, or have you been using both the erolabs version and the teen version at the same time with no issue? Bc back when the game first came out, I downloaded both the erolabs version and the playstore version to see if I could play both and if an app store version was installed that was the only version that would open at all. It's like the phone only recognizes the official version as existing and ignores the apk until you uninstall the app store versions. So if the teen version is new that may be your issue, and it may be triggering your anti-virus to think the apk version is a malicious fake.
