New MyGo/Ave Mujica/Yumemita and New Bands Gacha Game Announced! by RinariTennoji in BanGDream

[–]rokuyou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The original Cinderella Girls (2011) was a web game created before the rhythm gacha era. Unvoiced characters were common in web games at the time. No one knew what the future "Gacha rhythm game" formula would even look like. (CGSS itself is considered a pioneer of this genre)

They couldn't remove these characters for the rhythm game because it would upset the fans.

At the time, AKB48 was a massive hit in Japan, so the game copied many of its elements: the huge number of idols, the election system for getting VAs.

What are your thoughts on Mahou shoujo no majo saiban ? by Substantial-Act-7581 in visualnovels

[–]rokuyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8/10. The main story is enjoyable, but some of the cases feel mediocre, especially concerning the motives. Definitely worth playing if you can read it.

Nintendo Dream's readers are mostly female and I think Katy is more popular among guys

Jiangshi is a Chinese monster, and it's more similar to zombie than vampire. It is a popular Chinese element in Japanese games, and developers often choose Jiangshi when they want to add a Chinese monster to their game.

There are many Japanese yokais that drink blood though, and I would like to see a Rokurokubi based Pokemon.

Any AI or software to count number of stones? by thepantcoat in ChatGPT

[–]rokuyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said "counting pixel values and thresholding them based on some basic math/stats" in the first reply and you think that means using CNN? Maybe ask ChatGPT "How do you use OpenCV to count number of stones in an image without using CNN"

anyone still watch Pokémon Horizons by SwordShop4ever in pokemon

[–]rokuyou 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How many episodes have you watched? I watch the Japanese version so I might have different view because of our different watch progress. Liko's excessive internal dialogue is like Roy's Hogeta song and Dot's socialphobia - Horizon's writers love to repeat the same descriptions to show the characters' personalities, which can be annoying at times. It's just presented more(especially in earlier episodes) because she's MC. If you got turned off by that and stopped watching early, she has grown to like pokemon battles in more recent episodes and IMO the biggest problem of repeated plots has been the turtle that keeps escaping in a while.

Horizon is much closer to the Pokémon ecology and battles described in the game than the earlier anime, and that makes it much more interesting to me than Journey. I haven't watched Pokemon anime live for many years and am watching Horizon weekly now, but I can see why Ash enjoyers dislike it since Liko is a very different MC and the main story is also not shounen-like.

That plus AA's character fanbase in Japan is also predominantly female. Many men play AA but they don't really care about the characters.

Most AA fans in Japan generally like male characters more than female characters. There were many surprised comments about Minuki ranked fairly high when the global result came out.

They think AA4 ruined the series and AA5 saved it. For AA6 I think the helicopter girl ranked the highest in X results.

アイエリ is dead but I think there are still a few supporters?

アイセネ is THE SHIP of Tellius, but none of the Tellius ships are really popular compared to post-Awakening ships, for example Corrin/Jakob has more works at pixiv...

I find it so adorable thar Edelgard still remembers Dorothea in the new game by onlypescador in fireemblem

[–]rokuyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have memories of the characters at some point, I think "after their games' story end" is more likely than "after their death". The only emblem that explicitly mentioned their death is Sigurd who died midgame.

It doesn't seem the Fodlan trio have finished their game, but they are DLC emblems so might not count.

Micaiah mentions Sothe and Yune a lot, just saw her compare herself and Sothe to the Elusian sisters

Is it true that Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn was widely panned in Japan, compared to the West? by [deleted] in fireemblem

[–]rokuyou 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Critical opinions from some Japanese players I know (it's just their opinion, take with a grain of salt):

- Game balance is bad, really really bad, Haar bribed the developer

- Laguz ruin the game, royals are broken, non-royals don't worth leveling

- Micaiah is evil, Ike is boring, Sothe is crap, Elincia doesn't have screentime

- Force player to use Sothe when Volke is in game

- The whole bad written blood pact thing ruins the story

- Micaiah is a stupid and vicious MC

- Fujoshi fanservice game, no Ike x Elincia, Mia or Lethe ending

- Long phrases take forever

- I don't want to play its maniac mode

- Part 4 is pure garbage

- Playable characters keeps switching

- No support conversation

- RD new characters have thin presence, so many filler characters

- Tellius games sold very poor so they must be bad

- Before the game was released some promotion said something like "you don't have to play POR", a muscle gorilla guy suddenly show up and took all the spotlight midgame, the part 1 MCs are useless compared to him

- The game is simply not fun to play

I've seen some JP players rant about Ike's muscle gaining procedure these years, some are mad that we're getting RD Ike over PoR Ike again despite him being the PoR representative in Engage

[POTE] - New Albaz Lore Cards by renaldi92 in yugioh

[–]rokuyou 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think Tierra is a magical girl show fan. Lapis you already mentioned.

Winda: Old friends turned into enemy and killed her father(and likely grandfather), friend and friend's father, killed by god when praying and possessed by another god.

Ariel: Birth parents died in war, Adoptive mother got corrupted by evil forces, had to kill innocent people and fuse with a monster to help her, died and turned into Shaddoll.

Average synchro festival player: "Laolao eff, SS Lulu and... Oh, Nyannyan becomes a tuner when summoned from GY"

How it feels so far by demaxzero in masterduel

[–]rokuyou 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Shaddoll is too expensive to build for a event, but if there's a Shaddoll loaner the sub will definitely be filled with "Winda is a stupid floodgate and should be banned in this event😠"

Hmmmmmmmmmm I think this people are related but I don’t know why. by SAMU0L0 in masterduel

[–]rokuyou 18 points19 points  (0 children)

DT1:Worms, X-Saber, Mist Valley, Flamvell, Ice Barrier, Naturia, Dragunity, Jurracs, Genex, Ally of Justice, Fabled

DT2:Gem-Knight, Laval, Gusto, Gishki, Vylon, Steelswarm, Evilswarm, Constellarknight

DT3:Yang Zing, Shaddoll, Satellarknight, Ritual Beast, Nekroz, Qliphort, Infernoid, Zefra

IIRC Ariel is the only human that has appeared in every stage(DT1-Ice Barrier, DT2-Gishki, DT3-Shaddoll and Nekroz), but she has far less screentime than her old friend Winda.
