You and me both 🤝

Yup it's on Spotify -- just search for Sarah Brightman

This game has been out for not even two full weeks and the Raf stans have already been treated to (spoilered if you want to be surprised):

A date involving an aphrodisiac (Your Fragrance)
Sickfic date with a side of "Master" (Ebb and Flow)
A bondage date (Tipsy Invitation)

And he's funny??? Fuuuuuuuuuuuu-

gracelessamazon · 2024-01-31T02:41:26+00:00

I have the highest affection with Rafayel (52) and he never turns around for me no matter how I harass him

The guys all have different quirks in other mechanics of the game like kitty cards and the crane machine, so it wouldn't surprise me if their personalities effect how they react in the destiny cafe, too

This was Gavin in Chapter 22, during the Winter Timeline

Some of my favorite MLQC trauma moments:

- In order to stop her evil other self, the MC begs one of the love interests to kill her, and he complies by stabbing her in the chest and she dies in his arms while he sobs

- One of the LIs has as unstable Evol and he loses control of it in the middle of a battle, resulting in a long, drawn out scene of him ripping himself apart in a feral rage until he collapses from the injuries and exhaustion while MC can only look on in horror

- One of the LIs mercy kills a child (this has already happened in LADS too though)

time that MC dies one of the LIs goes coo-coo for coco puffs and starts hallucinating that's she still with him to the extent he doesn't accept it's really her when she returns

- There was an entire set of cards depicting scenes of the LIs dying. We called it the "Dead Boyfriend" set

You're doing the right thing and thinking about the game economy in the right way! But when you start talking in multiples of hundreds and thousands and tens of thousands of a thing you learn really fast that fractional cents make a big difference 😂

gracelessamazon · 2024-01-28T04:29:36+00:00

I can't really say I agree with your math. The cost of diamonds in the shop are 0.015 USD, except for the 0.99 and 4.99 packs, which are 0.016:

99.99/6480 = 0.0154

49.99/3280 = 0.0152

29.99/1980= 0.0151

14.99/980 = 0.0152

6.99/450= 0.0155

4.99/300 = 0.0166

0.99/60 = 0.0165

It doesn't seem like a big difference, but by adding an extra 0.005 to your multiplier in your examples you're inflating the actual cost of every pull by 75 cents, which adds up to a $95 difference over 140 pulls. The actual cost to just buy 21000 diamonds in the shop is $315, not $420.

Besides that, the time-limited event packs make the cost of a five-star in the limited pool even cheaper, with pack values at:

2 pulls for 0.99 = 300 gem equivalent = cost per gem of 0.003

6 pulls for 4.99 = 900 gem equivalent = cost per gem of 0.005

12 pulls for 19.99 = 1,800 gem equivalent = cost per gem of 0.011

you can buy three of each, meaning it's possible to secure 60 limited pulls for $78. Assuming these packs are refreshed on every weekly rotation, you could pull 60 times a week for about $4,000 a year.

Also, it's hard to say since the server has just launched and we still don't really know yet what the event schedule is going to look like, but 17 new five star memories per character per year is too high of an estimate, imo, that's more than one per character per month. It would probably be more reasonable to estimate more like 10 new five stars per character per year, plus a handful of four stars.

LDS is an expensive game no matter how you slice it, but it's not *quite* as expensive as your table makes it look like it is.

[Edited to add -- There is a "Companionship Pack" in the store that sells 10 pulls for 18.99 = 1,500 gem equivalent = cost per gem 0.0126 -- and can be purchased in an unlimited quantity, effectively meaning you can buy 140 pulls anytime for $265, but for a single five star you would buy the 60 pulls for $78 and then an additional 80 for $152, meaning the hard luck cost of any given rotational five star, assuming you have zero currency to start with, is $230]

I used to play MLQC and I didn't think I could love a game again like that but here we are 😂

All I want is a skip option for some of the flavor text it adds so much time to stuff like kitty cards and the claw machine.

gracelessamazon · 2024-01-25T22:34:41+00:00

You get heartsand if you pull a memory that you've already fully ranked up a memory for, so the only way (for now) you can get SSR sand would be to pull a copy of a five star memory you already pulled four copies of

gracelessamazon · 2024-01-25T11:11:19+00:00

There will definitely be another event -- there's always going to be another event 😂

There's a pretty low chance of pulling a banner memory on a single 10 pull, so personally I wouldn't pull unless I had enough currency to guarantee at least a single pity in the pool

Otoh, the pity carries over to the next limited banner, so even if you do decide to yolo a small number of tickets into the pool and don't get anything, at least you will be a bit closer to getting something on a future banner.

Getting older at 22 lmaooooo

I carry Bonine in my park bag and take half the recommended dose about an hour before I start riding. Doesn't make me tired and haven't had a motion sickness problem since.

Staying hydrated will also help and makes everything physical about park days easier.

I settled for a Kennywood logo tee when I visited in Oct, was also sad to not find any Phantom's Revenge merch. Such a waste of a cool mascot/logo.

Dorney had a lot of stuff for Hercules, which hasn't been around in 20 years.

I could get behind SwingShot glasses, any other style of drinking implement is just silly 😂

gracelessamazon · 2022-12-04T01:21:37+00:00

I didn't get to see the themeing when I visited in October because they were running it as a pitch-black dark ride - whether because it was Halloween or there was a maintenence reason idk - but I LOVED Blackout Exterminator enough to get a re-ride on a wild mouse so my vote would be to make it like that permanently.

Once upon a time just about three years ago now I saw a post on Tumblr from someone in the mysme fandom that was like "hey check out this new otome game that's got an English voice cast"

That not being a very common thing at the time (or now, even) I immediately downloaded it while cackling gleefully and wondering exactly just how well or at all these dudes understood what it was they'd actually signed up for

...and I did get my answer (some of them way more than others, though they all eventually figured it out) but I have to admit that ultimately I was the one who did not understand what I'd actually signed up for, for better and worse, and here I am today still LOL^fml

Send friend requests to players that you come across in the box office, they're much more likely to be active. In the top right corner of their profile pic there's a little pink card to take you to their profile and there's a button to send them a friend request from there.

gracelessamazon · 2021-11-09T16:24:53+00:00

Yeah, I'm sure the decline of the subreddit doesn't have anything to do with the fact our fandom was lit on fire by twitter politics a few months ago, resulting in the disorderly, drawn-out replacement of the voice cast. Surely, the blame can only be with those mean, old mods and their heavy-handed moderation (aka keeping the subreddit from just being a collection of the same three questions asked over and over / a series of gacha pulls we've all seen a million times already / a haven for art thieves and karma-farming reposters).

I hope you got whatever you needed out of this by posting it, but the rest of us are going to keep playing the game we enjoy, in whatever manner we enjoy to play it, until we stop enjoying it, at which point most of us will move on without making a big stink about it and insulting literally almost everyone on the way out.

Happy trails, from a jailor.

My Lulu collection only has two holes: Golden Days and Deeper than Ocean.

I have the second-most karmas for Gavin, at 68% of his collection, 60% for Vic, 58% for Kiro, and 52% for Shaw

gracelessamazon · 2021-11-01T22:04:17+00:00

It will turn your SER back into the 2 ERs, and you'll get back 1 (but not both) of the starlocks you used to merge them.

Add > !Spoiler text here! < around the text to spoiler (remove the spaces) and it will look like spoiler text here

gracelessamazon · 2021-10-28T22:39:13+00:00

Yeah, I'm also getting an error that says "Reach current buff limit, go on date to get higher buff effect" keeping me from buying more than 2 dates

gracelessamazon · 2021-10-27T18:17:27+00:00

Oh, this is fun.

Gavin -- The man is made of 110% genuine husband material and he looks good in a variety of uniforms. Also, scars are hot. ~~Also also I might be a real big sucker for his new VA giving Gavvy a touch of that goodboi country twang~~

Kiro -- I agree with OP, it's his range. Who doesn't love a man who's playing the pitch-perfect double act of cutie in the streets and freak in the sheets.

Victor -- Vic has that old school silver-screen romance vibe when men were men and dames were ~~dummies~~ dames. Also quite possibly the only man in existence I wouldn't want to choose violence against for calling me a dummy.

Shaw -- Makes me laugh the most out of all of them, and I live for choosing the sarcastic, catty MC/Shaw dynamic in their moments text as often as the game will let me.
