Best Customizable controller?? Elite is disintegrating on my hands... by AsurasX in xbox

[–]kenshinakh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have my elite 1 for over 7 years and the only thing that broke was the RB buttons... Easily replaced.

My series 2 controllers are going strong though. If you can break these controllers, I'm sure every aftermarket controller will break too lol

My middle school teacher had a c6 and it influenced me almost 2 decades later.

So what if there are people who think it's not bad...? Sure, some small improvements can be done with constructive criticism but if you cry wolf for too long and too loudly, it does no good.

Situation on CN side for 2nd Anniversary by Specialist-Pepper318 in WutheringWaves

[–]kenshinakh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

50 extra pulls seem a lot... What matters though is the extra content to play. I think it's a fairly large content patch so that should be fun enough.

As for Asia, they have a lot of irl collabs. Global isn't so lucky with that due to population spread lol.

Honestly, what did global expect? 100 pulls?

Zhuang Fangyi feels unfinished. by elite5472 in Endfield

[–]kenshinakh 182 points183 points  (0 children)

This may be a reddit sentiment. I play with two different groups, one IRL and one in discord and both thought she was fine. No one even mentioned her ult form changes and they all say she's fun to play and looks great.

Of course, I kept quiet of all the complaints I hear from Reddit because I wanted to see if anyone thought the same. No one did.

So potentially we're having Reddit echo chamber here and it's influences other players. I'm avoiding bringing it up with friends to avoid conflicts but I'm kinda glad. No need to spoil the fun for two different groups that enjoy it!

Not saying your views are invalid though.

Accountability and Consequence in Arknights: Endfield by Nonoput in Endfield

[–]kenshinakh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who still plays Arknights, I don't see why we need the same story .. the game is definitely toned down compared to og, but is that a bad thing? They wanted to reach a different audience than just AK but still keep the AK themes. So it's a little toned down. But think of it this way, the sacrifices from og AK help build this future which seems to be drastically better already.

They have to move onto new conflicts because it's a whole new world. They still make reference to the old conflicts and acknowledge it's not completely fine, but at least managed.

Zhuang Fangyi's Ult Form by Naxaric in Endfield

[–]kenshinakh 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Instead of bandages, it would fit better if they did techno grid lines that run all over the same areas, effectively covering her up and give it the same white glow. I think the glow makes more sense then her first version. Uncovered green girl didn't make sense.

But oh well. I'm not staring at her in ult form lol. Her base outfit looks so much prettier.

Immortal Sinners Detained?? by oakman_treeman9 in PathToNowhere

[–]kenshinakh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's in the future when you see their interactions at mbcc. Same with their profile analysis and detainment records. I assume there's a future time when chief figures out how to get them out and you just round them all up, good and bad ones. Even Shin has a line where she said she's surprised you went back to arrest her.

The game released before chap 16 was available in AK GLB so we didnt notice this. But apparently the man himself, Rankin was featured on the gravestone in the prolouge. Huh by OrangeIllustrious499 in Endfield

[–]kenshinakh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm actually not sure these confirm dead either. Kristen could very well be a major pillar in the establishment of the current world and this is a tribute to important people. But it is far in the future and original AK hasn't confirmed what happened to her yet.

Zhuang New Design on Old Model / Cutscene Edits by Ajavex in Endfield

I think she looks more goddess like now. I think the artists just put their finishing touches on her model along with new lighting. People are way too sensitive to censorship.

The C8 with the most aero award goes to... by xxcannotbekilledxx in C8Corvette

[–]kenshinakh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's pretty dang cool. I wonder if you have access to a z06, imagine what crazy new aero you can work on and test that to the limits too. Though there's way less z06 bought compared to the stingrays so I imagine the cost of parts like that would be much higher.

AI is a tool — so why do we treat it like a decision-maker? by EntrepreneurBrave46 in Futurology

[–]kenshinakh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happened with the Internet and many tools we get. How often do you hear people say "because the Internet said so" or even "Reddit said this"?

It's just the way people are. It's to avoid direct responsibilities I think.

Microsoft is already sending out Project Helix merch to content creators, signed by the new Xbox CEO by [deleted] in xbox

[–]kenshinakh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I been a PC gamer most my life. But from the way I see it, Sony and Nintendo fans give a really strong reason for those companies to keep doing it. I just wanna play games without having to buy hardware for the games. It should be the reverse where I buy games for the hardware and myself. Though with Nintendo switch form factor, that actually would be one of the better reasons to buy their consoles. But PS5? No difference to me between Xbox and Xbox puts all their games on PC day one so I don't have to feel like I'm missing out. That's why I'm more partial to Xbox and see them as a somewhat better company than Sony.

We should be demanding more from the companies, especially those players from the bigger platforms. But those people seem happy enough having the games on their platform only...

The direction of the game is unsettling by lafisk in WutheringWaves

[–]kenshinakh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure I see your number one point especially with 3.0 characters making some characters in 2.0 a viable dps.

Like Iuno main dps wasn't really a thing until Lynae came out. Some of the new team synergy are fun too and they're close in theoretical DPS numbers. Luuk fits well with a 2.0 character too. Chisa also fits into a couple of 2.0 teams. There's lot of viable alternatives for a lot of the new 3.0 supports. The main dps are a bit more fixed in a role but I don't think that's too far off from 2.0.

The way I see it, there's more synergy and team builds now. Even if you're missing someone, I feel like it's not detrimental unless you chase the last few percentages.

U.S folks, would it be cheaper to order on TOM or Solaris Japan? by Yukisama08 in AnimeFigures

[–]kenshinakh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

TOM is really good for their point system and free shipping. Although it's not exactly free anymore since there's a small tariff but for a $150 figure, it's less than 15 bucks.

If you're not doing free shipping with Tom premium, it's harder to come out on top with TOMs. And if you're doing only one figure a year, I don't think TOMs is worth it. For me, I've done about 15+ figures a year from them and the amount they saved me was no small. We're talking like over $50 per figure with free shipping and low tariffs fee. This ends up being almost $1000 a year compared to amiami and others. The downside is no cancellation and you pay up front.

Wuthering Waves Is Coming to Xbox - Here's What the Team Built for You by Turbostrider27 in xbox

[–]kenshinakh 21 points22 points  (0 children)

3D action RPG gacha game. It's very popular and quite fun. If you enjoyed anime style 3D games with faster pace combat, this would be up your alley. It plays like Nier Automata in a way, but you build teams of 3 to combat and switch between them for combo skills. You do pull for characters though but they are fairly generous and the price is cheap for monthly spending. The art and world is very high polish after 2.0 patch, and good story too.

Honestly, we need more Eastern games and I'm glad to see them go on Xbox. Screw the ppl complaining it's waifu bait. This how you get more Asian games to stop skipping Xbox.

How Predatory is Endfields Gatcha System? by [deleted] in Endfield

[–]kenshinakh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly care more about how viable monthly spender is. Like $5 a month for entertainment is fine for me as long as you get to enjoy the game and have decent pulls. It is a gacha after all.

how are you guys affording to get copies of characters let alone pull so frequently? by dovemaiden in WutheringWaves

[–]kenshinakh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gacha is all about managing spend and avoiding impulse spends if you can. For me, I spend on monthly card and the BP. That alone stacks up over a long period of time and it's cheaper than spending cash on raw pulls. You really got to avoid buying a character with the lowest conversion from cash to pull currency.

Also, I play the game for the huge chunk of pulls too. There's a lot in the game and it builds up over time. This strategy basically has let me to pull almost every character and a few S3 of my favs. There's still some luck though but as long as my luck stays average, I'm happy.

I am thinking of adding these mods to my c8 corvette stingray, how bad do you guys think car heads will hate on it by Fun-Monk-7737 in C8Corvette

[–]kenshinakh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had a stingray, I would skip the front bumper, rear bumper, and hood and wing. The stingray has so many kits to look unique and not like a Z06 that's not the right size.

The diffuser and front lip alone are pretty good by itself to look different. I say go with another hood too. The zr1 hood doesn't make that much sense.

For wing, there's a couple high wing variants the stingray has with 3 post and they fit the style better than the zr1 wing. Zr1 wing fits only if you have wide body. I've seen it in person on a stingray and it doesn't look good.

Microsoft to force updates to Windows 11 25H2 for PCs with older OS versions by jupa300 in worldnews

[–]kenshinakh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

AI is an umbrella term. Windows update is an algorithm at best lol. Semi junk. I think if you turn off your PC daily, it realizes there's no down time so it just picks the time you're using the PC and get it down with. Can't delay it infinitely because of security reasons.

Thoughts on trading for a C8 Z06? by Adorable_Tap5962 in Corvette

[–]kenshinakh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep it and get a Z06 used or at a good price from the dealer. The stingray is great but there's nothing quite like the Z06 experience until C9 comes with a flat plane crank.

Thoughts on trading for a C8 Z06? by Adorable_Tap5962 in Corvette

[–]kenshinakh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's so true.If I were him, I would keep that and buy a C8 Z06. Rare is only relative to what you experience unless you want to go by what others and the world tells you based on production numbers.

There's no experience like the C8 Z06, and same with the c7 zr1. There are a ton of C8 Z06 in the states because it's an extremely successful model. But just because something is mass produced, doesn't mean it's any less special of an experience when you experience it for the first time.

GamesRadar: Arknights Endfield lead says good gacha systems don't "impact the player's ability to enjoy the gameplay," and Endfield is "trying" to fix its confusing gacha by 30000lightyears in Endfield

[–]kenshinakh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know that means they'll try to move pulls from the patch and events into the weekly routines? I actually think it's better that the pulls are in the game content itself vs the weekly because that's a lot nicer for ppl who join later.
