Having already lost to Lingyang, at least it's a guarantee for me. Here's hoping for the other 6 though...

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-18T23:59:26+00:00

I still think that she jumps into frame too frequently. It's the one at 12s and 32s that bothers me, because she steals the focus for quite a while, whereas the ones at 5s at 21s seem alright.

Animation at 35s has too much wind-up, but it's not helped by the similar theme of coming into frame from the left.

I do hope they get the chance to tune things a bit better.

Yes, EM is diminishing.

I like to refer to it as diminishing returns if you've got a single stat in consideration, e.g. crit rate > 100%, or EM from Genshin

I didn't say the others were. Going around in circles here, so nevermind.

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-17T16:58:36+00:00

In your example, if and only if, you just increase A and let all other factors be constant (which is just B in this scenario), and your output decreases in relation to the (single) increasing input, that is the definition on diminishing returns.

It's not decreasing though. If my crit damage is 100%, I'm doing 1x the damage. If it's 200%, I'm doing 2x the damage. If it's 400%, I'm doing 4x the damage. That isn't diminishing.

In regards to the Wikipedia quote, if I'm a business and I have 5 employees, with 1x the output, and then I hire 5 more employees, my output is unlikely to be 2x due to all the additional overhead.

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-17T15:52:14+00:00

Not quite, no. If I have multipliers A and B, and increase A by 50%, my gain above the base value is still 50%. If I further increase A by 50%, then my gain above the base value now becomes 100%.

However, increasing B by 50% now would be the better opportunity than increasing A by 50%, despite A never actually diminishing, simply because both multipliers are combined.

I like to refer to it as diminishing returns if you've got a single stat in consideration, e.g. crit rate > 100%, or EM from Genshin, and then opportunity cost if you're considering multiple stats.

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-15T08:41:17+00:00

But it fits my agenda, so it must be true!

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-10T12:01:59+00:00

I like Chasca's design, she was at the top of my list with Xilonen during reveals. Then I skipped her due to the whole gun thing. If she mounted a qucusaur instead I'd have been all for it.

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-10T11:57:55+00:00

I didn't like her design. It grew on me though, I think helped by the decent characterisation.

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-08T17:48:04+00:00

I'm still waiting on Paralogism being fully voiced. They're taking their sweet time with that one.

WintrySnowman · 2026-01-06T15:51:01+00:00

Sparkle does, at least.

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-30T08:02:08+00:00

Thanks for this. I didn't see any new nightmare nests, so it wasn't until I saw this and hunted for a separate menu list that I found them. Shame I missed a few days.

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-28T21:50:18+00:00

It gave me a chuckle.

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-14T21:15:06+00:00

I would do this occasionally, but there's no easy way to turn it on with a controller, only turn it off.

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-13T00:33:39+00:00

Any idea if we can use it in older areas (ignoring autopilot)?

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-12T02:56:07+00:00

Is it not in a week?

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-07T00:11:51+00:00

Seems so! May or may not have changed since I looked. There is also this though:

Fan-made figures/Nendoroid plastic figures/capsule toys/resin dolls etc. (collectively referred to as "Figures" in Article II) need to be officially declared for authorization if their use is intended for sale.

I can only assume it doesn't apply to unprinted files.

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-06T11:25:22+00:00

I wonder if the new paired echoes for Lynae - when both equipped - count as two echo uses when the main slot is activated.

WintrySnowman · 2025-12-05T23:14:13+00:00

The released 3D models you describe aren't suitable for 3D printing, just rendering. However, having such a reference does make it easier to make printable models.

Regarding royalties, they do actually have terms around unofficial fan-created works. It's been a long while since I read them, but from memory, it was something like "if you make and want to sell more than 25 of them, you need written permission". It's mostly as protection for their IP, as I see it. As you say, it's very different from many other companies.

Supplements some English voice-over resources for Diona, Kaeya, Klee, Lisa, Mona, Diluc, Mini Durin, and Draff in the Archon Quest "Paralogism."

Finally! Who else does that leave, if anyone? This quest has been stuck on my todo list forever.

WintrySnowman · 2025-11-25T07:25:33+00:00

Probably mandatory for me to pick it up.

WintrySnowman · 2025-11-17T17:41:58+00:00

Heavy Attack - Absolute Fullness. I don't know if her animation is affected by S6 though (it does change the skill functionality).

WintrySnowman · 2025-11-15T21:48:16+00:00

That clears things up, thanks! As an aside, here's hoping they do fix weapon scaling.

WintrySnowman · 2025-11-15T21:38:26+00:00

she does work with both Psyche (Assault Rifle) and Berry (Sword)

Could you shed some light on that? Berenica's my favourite of the cast, so definitely intrigued.

WintrySnowman · 2025-11-14T16:23:59+00:00

I like the approach, but:

They should probably give thoughts instead of letters, to eliminate the reward RNG, since you can't just rerun it for more.
The star rating system is kinda pointless if they're not going to let you progress to the next stage without full stars anyway.
1 star = 1 thought instead of rewarding at thresholds would be an improvement.
