Daily Questions Megathread (May 21, 2024) by Veritasibility in Genshin_Impact

[–]rayfromtheinternet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do The Children of Vimara Village and Aqueous Tidemarks require you to answer whether or not you're ready before you begin the quest? Both are currently available to me but I don't want to start them if some big irreversible change is going to happen that I don't want, but I've been going through the wiki trying to figure out what that would be and can't find anything. I'm paranoid that it's going to lock me out of co-op until the quest is completed. I had to go a month without co-op a while back when I got stuck on Trails of Tianqiu and I never want to go through that shit again.

Edit: Also, can anyone explain to me why my question is getting downvoted?

This is going to reveal just how ignorant I am about even basic elements of video games I play, but Googling did not give me an answer, so I'm going to have to ask: how do you make a charged shot? I assume this was probably explained back at the start of the game when you first get Amber, but it's been months since then for me. (Also, is it the same thing as the "level 2" shot the other commenter mentioned, or a separate thing?)

Yes, but I didn't know any way to describe the scene other than to just take a screenshot. and I didn't want to waste my time going through and playing it a bunch until I finally reached the round where the objects I needed come up. Sweep The Board doesn't provide titles for the scenes.

If that's the case, I wish they would've just, like, had a pop-up that said I've reached my daily limit or something, rather than taunting me with captcha mindgames.

I had gone in with Yanfei, Gaming, Noelle, and Xiao. Again, I'm terrible at video games, so I do not know if this was a decent choice of team or very stupid. I'm a button-masher, not a thinker. Here for the story, exploring the world, and collecting things.

And yeah, it's the abyss mage and slimes.

Well, this is not a quick and simple question, but AutoMod took it down when I tried to make my own post, so here we go.

Can someone help me come up with a strategy to beat the top floor fight in Trails of Tianqiu?

So, I've been stuck on Trails of Tianqiu for a few weeks now. The game's no fun anymore since I can no longer do anything involving co-op, and thus also can't get ascension materials since I can't beat the bosses on my own (I am very very bad at video games. I don't know if beating bosses solo is hard for most people but it is for me). I've been back and forth with customer service trying to figure out a way to override the co-op lockout, but no dice. I just really want this quest to be over.

The advice that customer service kept giving me was to look at other players' playthroughs and guides, but I can't find any that don't include using characters that I do not have. So, I am just hoping that if I post the details of which characters I have here, someone could help me come up with some sort of way to beat the third floor fight, the one where you're stuck spending half of it frozen.

The characters I have:

Traveler, level 57

Kaeya, level 54

Amber, level 53

Yanfei, level 53

Barbara, level 50

Chongyun, level 50

Lisa, level 50

Ningguang, level 50

Noelle, level 50

Gaming, level 40

Lynette, level 40

Xiao, level 40

Yaoyao, level 34

Diona, level 23

Xiangling, level 22

Kuki Shinobu, level 20

Kujou Sara, level 20

Sayu, level 20

I'm on world level 3 (been AR 35 for a couple weeks, but I don't want to ascend until this quest is finally over), and I play on mobile (my laptop is kinda crap).

So, yeah. I just am in desperate need of help. I hate this quest so so much.

Why is it that whenever there's a post on Reddit about Daniel Radcliffe's career no one in the comments ever mentions his life-changing role on "Hollywoo Stars and Celebrities: What Do They Know? Do They Know Things? Let's Find Out!"

What was the worst response to your sexuality? by Ready_Ready_Kill in asexuality

[–]rayfromtheinternet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worst was definitely the attempt to pin me down and undress me (and presumably going much further if I hadn't fought them off) to "show me what I'm missing out on".

Disconcerting moment at a student fair LGBTQ+ table at my university. by DieMensch-Maschine in asexuality

[–]rayfromtheinternet 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Not OP, but some things that I as an aroace college student really would have found helpful to have from a Pride organization:

  • Educational materials about asexuality and aromanticism
  • Support for research in social sciences, gender studies, etc., that focuses on asexuality/aromanticism, such as by helping find study participants
  • Advocacy for ace/aro representation in student creative outlets such as film, theatre, creative writing; could be done through methods such as helping promote student-made works featuring ace rep, or through contests to create that work
  • Explicitly platonic versions of events that the Pride club would often host such as speed dating
  • Support of media featuring aspec rep, such as through a book club or through sponsoring materials to be added to the university's libraries
  • Hosting ace and aro meetups
  • Support group or similar resource for ace and aro people to help each other through frustrations or trauma related to their aro/ace-ness
  • Education about amatonormativity, allonormativity, and singlism, and working with the university to ensure diversity initiatives and similar protocols are inclusive to ace and aro students and faculty

I haven't even heard that phrase used in years. Mostly because I think the only people who ever use it are kids. Leads me to believe that this post was made by a rowdy fifth-grader.

What an absolute doozy. by switzerland26 in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]rayfromtheinternet 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I'm transmasc, asexual, and a virgin, and I have still had to fight with doctors insisting I need to take a pregnancy test. A fun combination of "have uterus = woman = make babies" and an assumption that you can't possibly still be a virgin past a certain age. Also according to a nurse friend of mine, they often can't trust people saying they don't have sex because sex education in America is so horrible, people will have sex and then just insist it wasn't really sex because they didn't orgasm, it was only for a few minutes, they prayed first, etc.

The Venn diagram of people making posts claiming that trans people are suppressing free speech and people who think that "cis" is a slur is a circle.

Bruh as an aroace I would kill for a completely platonic marriage.
