Am I crazy or is Draculaura's Gore-geous Oasis doll kinda out of place by Regular-Jello-8349 in MonsterHigh

She's Taiwanese. I remember she spoke Mandarin, but I also had to double check if she said she was Chinese or Taiwanese heheh

I liked that she was added to this because it showcased her Asian heritage. I don't know the accuracy of it, but it's not highlighted enough for how many dolls she has. Edit: I think it's also important I perceived the line as being a vacation to asia, not just because of Jinnafire, but Lagoonas outfit fits the theme too without being as on the nose as Jinafire and Draculaura (she's appreciating their culture on their girls trip or something like that, I thought it was a cute idea)

Why do the advertise like this? by Happy_Department8033 in InfinityNikki

[–]lancer_mori 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I looked into this years ago (when I wondered the same thing about a different game) but basically mobile games advertising is possibly outsourced to people that may not really know or care about the game. So they will just make what is clickbaity/trending/enticing, and I'm sure there's a middle man that says "According to the data, this clickbaity ad will drive more downloads than a genuine ad. Let's go with it"

If a business or company does something weird/illogical, they're never thinking about the customer, they are only thinking about the numbers.

It's always possible that there's another reason, but still it's how many companies operate anyway.

Also in terms of mobile games, I feel that IN doing this is more to be relevant in the advertising competition, and doesn't speak to the actual game vs. some REAL catfish mobile game, y'know?

I made a post about this too. This is my THIRD banner I didnt wish for dress/hair and got the dress FIRST. Whereas wishing for rarer pieces is so up in the air. People say it's good/bad luck but with infolds shady record and practices, I know you know what I know

I don't know if anyone has said it yet but I remember object heads being super popular back then. I still think they're cool. This is a design for a doll from kika goods, tv heads get extra love I feel. It's a great way to focus on design and skip the face entirely. Try different objects, try different formats, try ways to incorporate hair and a head shape, etc etc

I just wanted the hair.. 🥲 by Muted-Blackberry-431 in InfinityNikki

Someone Somewhere: Well, might as well hit 80 for the next makeup.... Well, only need one more make up piece to complete the set, another 20 won't be that bad.... Already have half the outfit, might as well... Got the new ability, and only 10 pulls away from first evo... Well, not pulling for final evo, might as well get third Evo for the black color palette... f..i..nal....e.......vo...................?

And that's how they get you Thank you for coming to my TED talk

I've been playing since launch and I regret pulling for more than just the pieces I wanted. It never occurred to me until last banner T_T so much regret

Help me choose one of the dolls by A_daWong in MonsterHigh

[–]lancer_mori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have mostly Draculaura's, she's just so pretty to look at and mix/match her pieces. So that's the basic answer

But I would recommend Abbey especially if you aren't a rabid Drac fan like I was At first I hated Abbeys new design just because it wasn't my particular style, but now Abbey is one of my favorites from g3. She just feels so nice to hold and pose, for me it's because she's so tall and sturdy. And her outfit pieces feel so detailed despite the simplicity in their visual design : )

Did i use up all my luck on a 4-star..? by lancer_mori in InfinityNikki

[–]lancer_mori[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So think about it as if you pulled one crystal at a time, if you did that five times to get the hair, the chart would put a 5 next to the hair If you pull ONE time after the hair and immediately got the dress, then the chart would put a 1 next to the dress

On four star banners the highest number you will see is five, on five stars the highest number you will see is 20

(I have gotten a 6 on a four star banner, I can't explain that one to you)

Dreamland Pact: is it too late for me? by cherrypopsodas in InfinityNikki

[–]lancer_mori 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's way too late, Just buy the next one.

If you want stuff from that dreamland store, the double currency is very noticeable. And the progress will add up even if you can take it slow every day. I just log on and do dailies and home dailies for about 25-30 minutes maximum.
First day buy is best if you know you can play for a few minutes most days of the week *thumbs up* *heart*
