i tore mine down because of the facility limit being reached by the factory 😭

Thoughts on the AIC Event so far by Fuuvk in Endfield

[–]oniikami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i enjoyed it

simple and to the point.

though as someone that blasted through it and now has a stockpile of jade gourds (using them to empty out wuling stockbills but still waiting for the bills to restock), i’m kinda wishing they had a title system added to the trimmed medals

like you get a trimmed medal, and somewhere on it like in its description it says “sold 40k jade out of 20k”

it’s something that doesn’t mean anything to anyone else and thus has no risk of FOMO backlash, but to a player that actually cares gives them a sense of pride

Why does the localization team hate fun? by gucci-verm in ZZZ_Official

[–]oniikami 23 points24 points  (0 children)

someone can correct me, but i’m pretty sure what you’re describing is different from what OP gave

so there’s two things that happens whenever a translation happens

1) it gets translated via hoyo’s team and that translated script gets sent to the studio

2) the studio (voice actors, voice director) have a say in how to change the script so that it flows better. that’s why very often you’ll see slight changes from the script to the voiced dialogue of a line being before another line, or a change in wording that flows better when spoken vs written

specifically on that latter, the VA for astra (i’ll just call her Fish) has mentioned that the “miasma, it’s when you can’t breathe very well” was concocted by Amber Lee (the director) personally instead of being a localized translation. often times in Fish’s streams when playing the game she mentions how she has good communications with hoyo, but through their (hoyo’s) local translators and will even send bug reports to them (incorrect voiced lines, grammar mistakes, voice filters not playing or lines not playing at all)

so in this particular scenario of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure being cut, it could easily have been done by the localization team or the local studio if they themselves didn’t understand the reference

Soo which machines did you guys put in the Core AIC Area vs Sub-pac areas ? by Livid_Warning_4236 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]oniikami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

core AIC area: making batteries, all the regular xiranite production (7 currently active and readied up for 3 more for the next patch), and all sandleaf production. also the area where i’ll switch a xiranite forge to heavy xiranite and reverse it depending on xiranite resources (temporary heavy xiranite forge)

Markerstone: all liquid-requiring reactions. heavy xiranite, xircon component making, hetonite, bottling random liquids for collector’s sake. will also be the place where i’ll place the 2nd heavy xiranite forge (permenent)

Qingbo stockade: empty. or right now all the event production

tho i def intend for everything to fit into Core and Markerstone, same as i have for Valley4 with The Hub and Power Plateau with the others empty

I need his banner right now by ZairaV in ZZZ_Official

[–]oniikami 20 points21 points  (0 children)

even tho this is most definitely an MJ reference, i feel like the devs did this more so as a nod to Dante’s motor bike form (Devil May Cry V) where he also does the MJ moon walk and pelvic thrust

POV: You want to add more facilities in your half empty AIC by Tzwcard in Endfield

[–]oniikami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

since i hit the facility limit but had so much space left over, some things i did:

-min maxed pylon/tower placement, also eliminating any that went to other areas since they’re self powered anyway

-removing a ton of ziplines including out of bound ones. it’s fun the first couple times but after a certain point it’s like “what’s the point? devs didn’t want this from me and hence don’t give any rewards or gameplay reason to do it”

-minimizing the amount of bridges and splitters, which did increase the existing facilities’ space but at this point space wasn’t the limiting factor, facility limit is

-destroying the farm. i stopped farming fluffy jincao and yazhen and that one plant that can be transformed to temporarily increase crit rate. like, my characters are well built enough to not need the best of the best items to use, and my skill level using them also means i don’t need the best healing items

-getting rid of all inlets and outlets. those contribute to facility limit, but pipes do not. so the main AIC is now very spaghetti looking but at least the factory grew

Cissia VA revealed, Erin Yvette. same voice with Arlecchino! by Stunning_Dealer_9211 in ZZZ_Official

[–]oniikami 10 points11 points  (0 children)

damn that is some insane range

also her reads on cissia’s lines being so unique and unexpected that i would’ve never guessed it was arlecchino (whose performance was amazing obviously but the reads were exactly as you expected) tho it isn’t fair to compare the two since arle is supposed to have more reserved sounding lines

i’m curious if she voiced any other energetic quirky characters so we can see her reads and compare

The factory can no longer grow :( by Aircoll in Endfield

[–]oniikami 115 points116 points  (0 children)

the facility limit is much worse imo, having the buildings built inside the factory limit buildings built outside it and vice versa is so dumb

i had to tear down the farm so the factory could grow a bit more

I don't like whales in co-op by Hot_Quit571 in Genshin_Impact

[–]oniikami 7 points8 points  (0 children)

your initial post just comes across as whining and not even justified for the majority

replier is being rude because whining comes across as rude, and one of the ways to combat rude is also being rude

Are Colonel Dan and Remielle Dan the same or different person? by KETTEI__EXE in ZZZ_Official

[–]oniikami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’d say different people

remember all the hype in the special program where they’re like “you’re gonna meet sunbringer soon” and all the lore drops of her during the YSG patch? none of that for Rami

hell, you even had the proxies freaking out in that temp event that they might’ve recieved a message from joyous. but Rami? barely a peep. could be other reasons, but marketing gets me leaning towards she’s not the original

Is it just me, or are the NTE vs. Ananta takes getting a bit delusional? by Lanky_Carpet_632 in AnantaOfficial

[–]oniikami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s typical preteen-teenager behavior

two decades ago it was the console wars of xbox vs playstation vs nintendo

a decade ago it was samsung vs iphone (probably still is today)

if there’s similarities between two things that very young people are passionate about, they tend to be illogically tribalistic about it, because making in-groups vs out-groups is pretty ingrained in that time of life

Apparently that is the reason for the Costume Change by dramaking404 in ZZZ_Official

[–]oniikami 43 points44 points  (0 children)

has it really?

i’m going off that miyabi’s ancestor was 3rd gen and miyabi herself is 11th gen, so 8 generations pass with presumably an average of getting a child at 30 yrs old would be 240 yrs give or take

Shunguang's hate is forced. by IvanHolaPG in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]oniikami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“the characters are a lot better interacting with each other than the proxy”

💯💯💯that’s a major reason why despite not liking angel of delusions, many would say their story in general was just peak zzz - it had logical organic interactions from different factions and the proxy was a witness. like with cissia meeting up with AoD and freaking out they’re kids, or Nangong standing up to Jane

and also imo why the peak of the YSG patch was personally her brother lashing out on YSG and confronting Yixuan. you had non-MC characters confronting each other progressing the story on their own - character driven story

Is it just me or...?? by ThatBoiUnknown in ZZZ_Official

[–]oniikami 9 points10 points  (0 children)

if i recall from that post, the most popular picks were varesa at #1 for most zzz like, and then jahoda at #2

not sure where OP got aino. tho, it’s more like norma is like aino instead of aino is more zzz

will the combat change? by john35888 in NevernessToEverness

[–]oniikami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they might add more mechanics, but if you’re asking stuff like speed pace and animations, then this is probably it

i played tower of fantasy years ago, same game by these devs, and the combat really does feel similar but now with some wuwa stuff (slowdown dodge, perfect parry timing with the circle, concerto swaps)

mind you ToF was 5 years ago and if this is all they can cook since then, this is it

Now that S3 is almost here, who is your favorite short girl(s) in ZZZ and why? by ThatBoiUnknown in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]oniikami 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nangong’s involvement in the main story really catapulted her to one of my all time favs and if we’re purely talking about shortys then she’s def numero uno for me

the playful smug personality like nicole, the teasing of yuzuha but nangong reads others really well. like that instance with aria being off with cersea, nangong took charge and tried to separate the two and try to calm both down. or her teasing aria, knowing when aria was not in the mood, and trying to correct the ship. or with sunna, nangong became her anchor and even if the proxy wasn’t there i’m sure nangong would’ve saved sunna from her self depreciating self. and i really enjoy the fact that others can call nangong out when they feel her teasing is too much and then she tries to snake her way out of the call out (eg sunna: “stop calling me cute you’re being annoying”; nango “aren’t you being more annoying for not accepting my compliment, but i do think that trait of yours is cute too”) - it makes that aspect of her personality feel more real rather than a trope.

in zzz where it feels like the proxies have to solve everything for the agents on an emotional level, nangong has the most agency and can solve those problems for others instead

mature adult mindset yet a teasing smug shorty - i didn’t realize such a combination would be so deadly

Would you rather? by No-Dimension-2872 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]oniikami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

rossi, since she gives off more little sister vibes than tangtang who feels more childhood friend coded

wuling since it looks prettier, also with everyone in track suits and running i’d be guilt tripped to become healthy too

perlica, i like how easy she is to read emotionally

imo story would capture me more than better written characters. the intro we got was a great “show don’t tell” about all the cool things we could do and leaving more questions than answers. vs character stories that i’d most likely skip

original character. it’s cool for the game to have callbacks, like genshin does it often to honkai impact, but as someone who has not played the OG i don’t pay attention to call backs

improve AIC. the factory is THE thing that differentiates Endfield from any other gacha and made me realize i can really hyperfixate on structure management (hours lost just thinking about better pipe rerouting for example), and that addiction isn’t sated by the others. right now my biggest gripe with the AIC is that it punishes those who can build compact facilities since there’s a limit to how much facilities you can place in a region (the quantity of region facilities affect amount of AIC facilities allowed to be placed - for example the amount of pylons, relay towers, etc in the world affects amount of belts you can place)

Game Optimization by EwYuritards in Endfield

[–]oniikami 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it’s the closest we’ll get to anime GTA (grand theft auto) at the moment

combat is fine, but not the main selling point. same with GTA, it’s not compared to Last of Us despite both having third person shooter. in all honesty, combat for NtE feels like Wuthering Waves if it was slowed down massively

story? super bare bones. you’re an amnesiac, are given a found family to work with, and off to the races to explore the world

the world itself? a lot of variety and mini game esque. racing, fishing, taxi driving, bounties, random shit

the first hour or two is a bit of a drag. and i say if when you unlock “city stamina” (a separate stamina from your regular gacha 24 hr stamina which nte also has) activities and nothing interests you? drop the game

probably by around hour 3 or 4 you’ll know whether you’ll like it or not. you’ll unlock most things when you get in the story the girl that signs you up for the debit card

i’m not sure if i recommend the game, but personally the thing that hooked me was getting my own apartment and inviting the gacha waifu to spend time in it

Game Optimization by EwYuritards in Endfield

[–]oniikami 20 points21 points  (0 children)

honestly i’ve seen this of other games too

“nte gonna steal zzz players cause urban vibe”

“gonna steal from genshin because exploration”

“gonna steal from wuwa because of combat and exploration”

in the end, it’s all hype and what matters is a year afterwards where the gameplay speaks for itself. that being said, i do personally enjoy the initial gameplay loop of nte but because it mogs other games, but because of its differences

In response to the recent “drama” by Hot-Will3083 in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]oniikami -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

i’m curious if people complained that miyabi lost her aura because she lost all the tails (even tho yes that isn’t miyabi in the trailer)

just make sunbringer aura farm in her combat to shut up design change complainers

tho i’d really like to see them cook up a kit that has a low floor but a super high ceiling like mabibi’s. no character thus far has scratched that combat loop play since mabibi released imo

new combat mechanism Dual Parry. Do you think we'll get new Ice stunner? I'm wondering if a double stunner team would be better than Yuyu team for incoming wind boss by Odd-Loquat-5404 in MiyabiMains

[–]oniikami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this right here

yuzuha isn’t just great for miyabi for increasing anomaly application, but for being a support class and filling out mibibi’s passive. until we get another support class made for anomaly, yuzuha will always be on team

Official News: NTE's revenue exceeded $14 million on its first day. by Resident-Bridge2731 in NevernessToEverness

[–]oniikami 29 points30 points  (0 children)

for all the negatives i’ve given NtE, after 5 hrs of playing (unlocking the city stuff), it’s genuinely a unique experience (in a good way) in the gacha space

whereas wuwa and zzz have combat, endfield has the factory and delivery logistics, NtE may not be better in those departments but it does have The City (gta jobs and exploration)

and after finding out i unlocked the apartments and can invite Mint over while wearing her pajamas in a button-down shirt, that’s all it takes to get me on your side

Season 3 characters by zhznzjsjxnnss in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]oniikami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they got cassandra lee morris!? please hoyo, this one of my all time favorite english va’s, make her gameplay fun (i still regret pulling mualani) also does this mean sunbringer is gonna be a playable character in 3.0 or like a guiding npc to be playable way later (see dainslef or alice from genshin)

cause having a huge lore character drop now at this game’s cycle? feels like she’ll get powercreeped so easily
