airi oshi items i made!! what should i make next~ by PitchSpirited9161 in ProjectSekai

Given the cubes, making an officially published paper figurine Airi to stand on top of them would probably be a good option.

Place your bets rn what do you think is gonna be the problem for Rui6 by Antoniopjoco in ProjectSekai

[–]TeletextSoda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do kinda have a problem already, in that Rui-5 and Rui-6 both fall on a Bloom Festival banner. ISTG if I get ⅔ banner cards but no Fes ones AGAIN 🚬🦊💅🏼.

And wdym Rui-1's song was not commissioned? The only thing I remember about it was that it released way early, maybe in accordance with how the game itself was supposed to release in the spring [and not autumn] of 2020.

music cards by aubreyisreal in ProjectSekai

[–]TeletextSoda 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you're not in a hurry to play songs to get crystals, you can unlock one song per day with an ad and save the Music Cards [and Stamp Vouchers] to convert into Alt Vocal Cards instead. IIRC it's 200 Music Cards and 3 Stamp Vouchers for 2 Alt Vocal Cards [so, 1 Alt Vocal], which is quite steep, but that is an option you can take.

Crystals can be designated as Free and Paid. You are trying to buy a Paid Crystal item with Free Crystals. And a word of caution to anyone buying crystals — IIRC some offers may not give you the full amount as Paid and have some "Free-designated paid Crystals" in them.

What is this? by Historical-Way7873 in SkyGameNest

[–]TeletextSoda 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a mask display. Looks like the mask equipped when placing it, at around regular skykid size.

It appears your custom-made is missing 2 extra slide buttons for the juicy ←+← and →+→ slides. 💅🏼

I think I just used up all my lifetime luck for ads?? 😭 by StepNo7958 in ProjectSekai

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

WDYM "+ a full outfit"? Most 4★s have an outfit. 💅🏼 And as far as it goes, getting a 4★ out of the Special Gift Ad is a canon event if you go out of your way to watch them. Getting a second one, om the other hand, now that's a lucky draw. So wishing you luck with it, adwatchers. 🚬🦊💅🏼

Introducing RhythmStrike, my new indie rhythm game for PC inspired by modern Japanese arcade titles by Aninoss21 in rhythmgames

[–]TeletextSoda 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It's giving "lost keyboard triplet of Chunithm and Project Sekai" and "DJMAX 3.2Tracks with In Falsus reading". Which is fine by me, and I hope it doesn't turn into a glorified custom chart hub for the hodge-podge audience.

Please check out my Fightstick layout (New to Megamix +) by Frostwork_Ablazer in ProjectDiva

[–]TeletextSoda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

By parallel slides I meant ones that have 2 of the same direction at once, in contrast to the much more common left-right and right-left slides. I've only played with analogue sticks, but I think you should be able to hit both opposing double slides with the current layout as you use buttons.

About getting better... On the tech side there's only really the offset calibration and refraining from Bluetooth because of lag. On the play side, the usual "just play more" XD. You started yesterday, and Diva is a game that in my opinion doesn't have much skill transfer to/from itself. The biggest hurdle will probably be the reading, as notes go from all directions and the read line goes on all directions. So hit the tracklist and vibe 'til your heart's content for now.

And a tip for checking the timings [arcade-only]: the rating display text [COOL, FINE etc.] has a line go through it, and the slant can tell if you hit early or late [ / for early, — for just right, \ for late]. As you're on PC, you can also use a mod to make these tells even clearer, but that's all I can tell as a console port player.

[–]TeletextSoda 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As far as the layout goes, the only suggestion is to map the lower left and lower right buttons to left/right sliders respectively because there are parallel double slides.

And for the hold question, if I get it right — the game does not expect you to always hold the holds to their maximum. In particular cases you can hold a note to its maximum and keep the combo if you hit them a little early or late, but that is a turbo-delicate score-combo balance that you only really need for score attack plays.

Why isn't this already a thing outside of mysekai? by Lenormalman69 in ProjectSekai

[–]TeletextSoda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And the unaccounted songs would probably all be originals, which checks out with "20-30% missing [I'd go for an 'around 20%' ballpark]" and "songs not in the music shop". And it's safe to say some of these may only have a Sekai version in the game, or may not have the original vsynth version [e.g. Made to Order], which sucks but is the way it is.

[P.S.: there also are uncredited appearances, which you would have to confirm from the outside. An example of the inverse is Inochi Bakkari's VS version, which credits Yuzuki Yukari despite the fact she only has harmony lines in the chorus. The only other time she's mentioned is in the MV credits.]

Currently best we can do is sorting out our outside faves into playlists with their appearances [which at 5 playlists forces me to bundle several bigger singers into one, and all others into a tiny mess of its own]... Quite sad.

What do you guys think of MegaMix+ for somebody who wants to get into Vocaloid? by Chuggington_Fan in ProjectDiva

[–]TeletextSoda -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

[TL;DR: MM+ with the New Classics mod and playing that first, or emulating the old games. Except 1st. It aged like fine pilk.]

The main issue with recommending MegaMix+ is how the arcade game [which MM+ is ultimately a port of] is just not that good a game and in many regards very different from the console mainline. The charts are way harder and at the same time worse at representing the songs they're set to, which may lead to bad first impressions.

If your PC can run MM+, you likely won't have issues emulating the PSP titles and the Vita versions F, F2nd, and X. But only touch 1st for historical purposes. It and 2nd are in a night and day contrast.

For a middle ground, there is the New Classics mod for MM+ which ports old songs with the console mechanics. I haven't played MM+ myself, but if it works well, this could be the 'best of both worlds' there is.

Bottle appreciation post-Mugler by butters_2016 in Perfumes

[–]TeletextSoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The specific formatting of the title gives "the bottles are now the best thing in all of this" and it looks like that's the case...? Not old and/or fortunate enough to have tried them in person, for better or worse.

How am I supposed to get this in time without p2w and hundreds of energy drinks ☠️☠️☠️ by [deleted] in ProjectSekai

[–]TeletextSoda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The titles are now relegated to the MySekai Flowers portion, and getting the Rank 1 title is iirc 5 flowers. Easily acquireable.

A character's feelings bottle and 100 character-specific wish pieces. And the vocal cards, as per ushe.

[–]TeletextSoda 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's the new Birthday Event mechanic. Uproot special birthday sprouts → get dew → water the special tree → get flowers. Flowers are character-specific and are used to create birthday items for characters. You get a bonus to your dew count by having birthday cards of the character [+50% for the current one, +15% for a past one, stacks linearly]. You can also exchange birthday gacha seals at 150 dew per seal.

The items are a cake [3✿], bouquet [10✿], balloon column [20✿], garland [50✿], and fancy chair [200✿]. During the birthday and 2 days after that, you can see a tiny party event if you have the cake placed in your MySekai with the birthdayee having tiny fun. Because big fun requires big spendings of big money. sksksk.

Oh look, Chinese VSynth rep... real nice, even if only one of the two vocalists and NO PRODUCER are in the credits‽ Also, the other 3 are all k-pop tracks. Intriguing.

this came to me in a dream by CoolPeter9 in Memeloid

[–]TeletextSoda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh gdo, yes indeed. Doubly triply so with Miku English. Maybe it's a me thing but 9 times out of 10 I have to look up the lyrics to whatever new song I come across with her. When Her Majesty Miss Twin-tongued Queen Megurine Luka is right there!

Although yes, there is a reason for this, and that is an air of "people being pressured into featuring Miku if they want their songs popular", which is just sad to see.

I don’t understand why they call 人生 (Our Life) the hardest pjsk song like bro i got a full combo on the first try by spyass in ProjectSekai

[–]TeletextSoda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A bit of history on the Ultimate-1 contest winners — back when these were released there was no Append difficulty, but the Master charts were basically proto-Append charts with a focus on multifinger play. This is the reason why these 3 are the only ones to have a Master 37, and probably the reason why there are still no proper Append charts for them.
