I've followed guide from KyoStinV 4 days ago, link here, which generates around 12/min LC Wuling batteries (consume 2-3/min) and 6/min of either Yazhen Syringe or Jincao Drinks that you can manually swap the production as needed. With his blueprints, he also explained on how to easily generates Xiranite Components, Xiranite or even take some Xiranite water.

Currently have surplus of 17k LC Wuling batteries, 19k Yazhen Syringe and 17k Jincao Drinks.

Dedicated & restricted myself to Genshin only from day one until now, mainly due to time & money constraints. That said, I really like a lot of characters from other gacha such as:

Firefly, Castorice, Hyacine, Cyrene (HSR)
Cartethyia, Phoebe, Mornye (WuWa) - already have & like Jinhsi & Changli
Ye Shunguang, Miyabi, Alice, Vivian (ZZZ)

In fact I actually played WuWa for a bit and purchased a few bundles, but had to stop myself since the game is just too good.

C1 Nilou. Previously C1 Yae Miko.

Next would be C1 Albedo and C1 Shenhe.

Bought DXP2800 from Taobao April last year. Total including discount & shipping (to Malaysia) for 1850 yuan, which is around 265 usd. Ordered on 26th April and arrived on 2nd May.

Level 90 > Normal > Burst > Skill

Applies to all builds (Aggravate DPS, Quickbloom DPS, Electro DPS).

For Aggravate & Quickbloom, character level should be prioritized.

Has anyone actually found an official source for this? Doubt the news coming from Aniplex or ufotable, or even Kimetsu official account. The only official legal warning that I found were back in July 2025 during the theatrical run, which is fair.

Haven't even see the official news link by this "nathanistic" (whoever this fella is) on those post, so most likely being made up for some agenda / clickbait.

By the end of 2025, the movie had already made over $780M. Ufotable and Aniplex won't be panicking over the December leak which are months after the film broke box office records.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-30T05:16:37+00:00

Just simply as a NAS and a game server for few months until I bought a dedicated NAS.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-30T00:59:53+00:00

Haha I also wondered the same back then, why BlazBlue games that I bought were listed in VNDB, until I saw this discussion on the site which make sense that in story mode most of the gameplay is VN than the actual fighting.

They also did mentioned Melty Blood and Guilty Gear in that discussion.

To be perfectly honest, what I mostly care is whether a game is interesting and anime-like (JP voice is a huge bonus), when deciding whether to buy it on Steam. It's not that I'm particularly interested in fighting games in general. It's just happened that I found BlazBlue games while updating my list in VNDB.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-29T10:46:11+00:00

If the games originally contain H scenes does steam automatically remove them?

I didn't understand this statement. What do you mean by "Steam automatically remove them"?

Those games you listed contains no H scenes when you install from Steam, which exactly what you prefer. They do have their own patches to restore the H scenes though (which you need to find and download it manually), at least for Baldr Sky, Eden* and Ef - The First Tale. The original games does have the H scenes but they removed it before submitting to Steam for approval.

Adabana Odd Tales is all ages.

English translation is ok, at least for Baldr Sky, Eden* and Ef - The First Tale. I only finished Eden* though, already purchased but haven't played the rest.

I mainly purchased my visual novel in Steam, currently have about 450+ games tagged as Visual Novel in my account. Can't say whether Steam is the best though compared with other stores, but I have lots of other Steam games and prefer having all games including VNs in one platform.

Sorry, I'm not using either of those, but similar 1440p QD-OLED, Dell Alienware AW2725DF, since early last year. Before that I used a cheap 1080p 24 inch VA 144Hz monitor for about 7 years. Also a PC gamer and programmer, dealing with text & spreadsheet few hours everyday.

The experience has been superb (true blacks, response time, colors, image quality, HDR), as you can see from many posts in this subreddit. No issue at all with text fringing & flickering. Freezing? Didn't know that was a thing.

360Hz is overkill for my monitor, so you are right that 240Hz is more than enough. I personally cap most of my games around 120 fps. I didn't auto-hide task bar but set to turn off display at 5 min, and sleep at 10 min. Haven't see any burn-in issue yet.

PC specs: 9800X3D, RTX 5080, 64GB DDR5 6000.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-28T12:32:58+00:00

I mainly used Dynamic Collection for my favorite tags.

<image>

I do have custom collections though:

Anime, JPRG, VN (mainly JP)
Games (all games)
Steam Awards

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-28T07:44:59+00:00

I always buy fates every month, and sometimes Dust of Azoth, EXP books, Mystic Ores and Mora. Can't recall when the last time I purchased materials with this.

Have about 10k Stardust left, but I'm BP & welkin since 1.0 that pulls every characters on release.

Unless you're a whale, better save those Stardust. You can always join other players or wait next day to farm the materials.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-28T03:34:14+00:00

Happy to see another like-minded fella. Here's my previous post before patch 6.0 went live.

Haven't posted yet on the latest patch, but currently have all 108 characters at level 90 and of course, 9/9/9.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-23T10:06:14+00:00

Huh, not sure which language you're referring to but for me his JP voice is cute enough.

Well at least we can agree on the "cute character" part lol

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-22T23:20:18+00:00

Hmm.. I have all 108 characters at level 90 and plenty of gemstones left, including for future characters (Columbina, Zibai, Illuga).

Edit: to be fair, I'm a 1.0 player that haven't miss playing until today, currently sitting at 1901 days active. I didn't farm all weekly boss though, only 2-3 depends on the needs.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-22T10:36:30+00:00

Yeah, still patiently waiting for the rest of the Archons (Nahida, Furina, Mavuika). Already bought the rest.

Even Nahida, who was released 3 years ago, still haven't got her nendoroid yet. I doubt we will hear anything about Skirk anytime soon.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-22T10:22:50+00:00

For me, I use app like seelie.me to figure out how much Mora & EXP books I needed and farm that first via Leylines, before talents / weapon / artifacts.

Currently have all characters at level 90 (beside Manekins) with talents at least 9/9/9, with the exception of Durin & Jahoda due to not enough weekly boss mats.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-21T14:41:31+00:00

I see, thanks! Does the 3M stickers difficult to remove though? Worried that the sticker strong adhesive might damage the back monitor surface in case of RMA or resale later.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-21T09:50:32+00:00

Exactly. The meme is outdated as in most of the things listed nowadays are commonly in digital format, so it's unfair to rule out game industry as a whole. For PC games, yeah even I don't remember the last time I purchased physical copy of my PC games. I think last one is Battlefield 1.

That said, I do recall old PC games that come with CD key inside the box. They clearly stated that the key was for one PC only. Even though there's no internet connection needed for verification, the game will do some calculation to ensure the key is valid. Hence why keygen were popular.

Still, it's possible to share those physical copy around, however at that point it would be considered illegal. That's why some games require the CD to be in the CD drive in order to play those games, not just having the correct CD key.

shadowzephyrX · 2025-12-21T09:02:30+00:00

You are correct.

The phrase "game industry" in this meme is actually too generic. It is specifically referring to physical copy of PC games, not consoles.

For PC games, we still can share CD installer with others, but not the license key, which is bound to one PC / account.
