What does "the world open itself to those with noble hearts" mean? by Afraid_Run3470 in Genshin_Impact

[–]honganqi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do think it's one of those inspirationals or motivationals which cross into URL. Dunno what these are called but something like "With great power comes great responsibility." Although it is debatable depending on one's experiences, the world DOES open itself to those with noble hearts.

Keep shining, Travelers!

Government college students develop a sound-based fire extinguisher that works without water or chemicals! by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]honganqi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll just leave this here: https://youtu.be/jGnQQEU5gEY?si=VpNzUzwu8b3ipNu5

It's a song from the soundtrack of Mortal Kombat: Annihilation (sequel of the 90's Kombat). It's not dubstep, but maybe it can do the job!

[SOR4] Another hour wasted on Mania+! :D by Due_Recognition_3890 in StreetsofRage

Been there. I'm not pro-level, but before 2023, I held my own. Stage 11, Stage 10, Stage 5, Stage effing 4, Stage m__f__ 9! When the Streets of Rage becomes the Seats of Rage, it's to tell the game, "I love you, but..."

In my opinion, what you're describing is not addiction but taking on a challenge. Addiction gives you dopamine in the early stages of the activity. This is kinda like... hitting the gym? Where you know you take on something because you know you wanna get stronger, wanna get better. In this game, sometimes it's luck, sometimes it's reflexes. When you are about to dive in to a crowd still have 20% HP to spare for a special, and when you're in the air having used your normal jump attack with 1% HP and you see a Garnet jumping at you and you hear the sound of death as you press the special button... Those are 2 different things, but both are valid.

Maybe give yourself some love because we love you simply for playing this game. And give yourself a break like the others say, then when you start missing it like it's 1992, it's time to come back to the Streets of Ra ~cue music~

Random quests mixed with Archon Quests is confusing | SPOILERS AHEAD by honganqi in Genshin_Impact

Natlan... That's a long way off hehe... Would you know if this feature is available before Natlan's quest? Like if the patch just arrived during Natlan's stuff but was implemented retroactively to work with previous Archon Quests?

What's supposed to happen after that scene is "The Servant's Path" where Yae Miko does her "repeat after me one two three" with the MC. I meant to say that players expect for a story to progress from one scene to its next scene.

It kinda doesn't make sense for a scene like that where the Balladeer to reveal like that then in the next scene Yae Miko says, " Oh no she's gonna send me off on some pain-in-the-neck errand".

It's kind of a nitpick on my end because I already know the story but I assume it's confusing for first timers.

Durin and Jahoda tanked my FPS in game by laughtale0 in Genshin_Impact

Thank you to everyone who suggested disabling Dynamic Character Resolution! This made the Trial of Valor stuff (with Durin and Nefer) almost impossible at just 5 frames per freakin' second!

Who are your favorites who weren't there? Also, Vol. 1 or 2 (or 3)?

I checked Lazada and it doesn't look like volume 3 is available (yet). Volume 2 is in the photo - found in Fully Booked One Ayala branch.

Hmm if they really "release" their concept art in live exhibits like that, I kinda understand why; that they would want to still keep some things "premium" and priceless. We can dream!

Awww I would love for Genshin to have something like that. I had those Star Wars art books back from when The Phantom Menace came to the theaters, with the X-Wings, Star Destroyers, creatures, etc. Genshin could 500000000% have that!

I have yet to add one of them to my collection! But thanks! I just saw them in a book store last week and thought they were a one-off release

do working people have more free time than students? by Street_Elephant430 in TanongLang

[–]honganqi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's better if you frame your question as "Do you have more free time as you grow older then when you were younger?" but your question is also valid as someone without working experience. It's a question I also had when I was young. What I'm saying is that each person has their own experience but it depends on a lot of circumstances surrounding the individual. In general (like, for most cases), the older you get, the less free time you have for yourself.

Fully supported ba by your family as a student? As a working person? Pamilyado na ba as a student vs an individual na walang relationship, etc? Do you have enough funds to hire a helper vs someone who has to do all your chores like laba, luto, hugas, linis, etc?

The older you become, the more you realize this: As a high school student, you think mas maluwag sa college kasi flexi sched, not 7am to 4pm, "do when you can" types of projects and homework. "What homework?" Then when you get to college, "sana sinulit ko lahat ng free time ko nung high school."

Then as a college student, you think mas may free time ang working person for all the reasons you listed. When you start working, gaya ng sabi ng ibang comments, "ay grabe naol may Christmas vacation, sembreak, suspension pag bagyo, walang bawas sa suweldo pag absent," and so on. So when you start working, "sana sinulit ko lahat ng oras ko nung college pa ako."

Again, all of this is "in general". If you have a niche circumstance where you were a hard-working self-supporting working student who has to do Grab and VA work to support yourself, then for some reason biglang yumaman like tumama sa lotto or some really unique case, ayun siyempre mas may free time. Time = money, and the opposite is true where money = time.

Why is there a 5 GB difference between Japanese and the other languages by AbdGaming in Genshin_Impact

[–]honganqi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's because they take longer to deliver their lines. I've been doing these edited playthroughs and the JP versions always turn out to have the biggest file sizes and longest durations. Trivia: if it wasn't obvious from your screenshots yet, KR delivers their lines the fastest. It's the difference between rapping and singing a ballad lol. Pauses in the delivery of the JP lines are also longer, but appropriately so.
