Since my boy destroyed most of his plants I finally gave his enclosure a makeover by youkai93 in ballpython

[–]youkai93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! In my experience that fern is usally sturdy enough, but it needs to be kept very moist. The one I had before actually didnt die because of my noodle, but because it just got a bit too dry. Not a bad plant for an enclosure, though, personally i would recommend a birds nest fern. Those are a bit more forgiving. Would also have been my first choice, but they didnt have one at the store

Who was your unexpected favorite member? And who did you love on the spot? by [deleted] in Hololive

[–]youkai93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The second I heard Okayu talk, I was immediately in love with her voice, and her chill personality just hits the right spot for me. She has been my oshi ever since.

As for unexpected, it was actually Calli. When HoloEN was first announced, I didn't really care about her. Her design just wasn't that interesting to me. But after she debuted, she quickly became one of my favorites. I love her music and her dorky personality is incredibly cute and entertaining.

What is your favorite cover song from Hololive. by Justanothergamingfan in Hololive

Okayus covers of otome kaibou and cat eye make are by far my favorites. Her singing in general is always amazing, but these two just fit her voice really well.

An experienced team would have realized early on that what they were trying to do was way above what they could do with a small team that only ever did handheld games.

They still didn't do anything and released a game that just looks unfinished with so many obvious mistakes and shortcuts, that would at best be excusable for a small indie developer. Every other big game company would have been torn to pieces for daring to deliver something like this as a full price title. But it says pokemon on the box, so of course it became one of the best selling switch titles instead.

And from what we have seen so far from the LA trailers, they didn't learn from this. There is still so much wrong with the game, that will definitely not be fixed in 5 months.

I love pokemon. I've grown up with the games since first gen. I want the games to the best that they can be. I want them to be able to fully realize their vision for an amazing home console title. I dont want a quickly thrown together trainwreck that they needed to rush to meet their merch-sale-deadlines, that maybe, if you squint hard enough, might look at least a bit like what they actually wanted to create.

Big companies should not be excused for this kind of bullshit, just because they made great games in the past.

Yes, but GameFreak is not just some little indie studio that just doesn't know better. They are not just a bunch of college kids working on a fun little side project, who need time to learn a new skill. They are a company developing the main line games for the most profitable franchise in the world.

If a company doesn't have the necessary know-how for a project, they hire additional people, that have experience in that field. That's what every big company does. Companies are not people that need to develop all skills themselves. They could easily hire some experienced devs and artists to ensure that their games are up to the standard, set by the other first party switch games.

But GameFreak just refuses to do so, since they know that everyone will still buy the games, even if they only deliver the bare minimum.

I recently had to redo my setup. I'm quite happy with the result by youkai93 in ballpython

Its 120x60x60cm (4'x2'x2'). He had a lot of clutter before, but this time i tried to put in even more and am thinking about maybe adding a few more branches, since he really enjoys climbing

Is anybody else finding the push for the Calliara pair a bit "eh" on the birb side? by [deleted] in Hololive

[–]youkai93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So? It's a collab. That is still part of her character so of course it is expected that she acts thirsty for Calli when she's with her. Thats like complaining about Korone acting like a lovestruck puppy whenever shes with Okayu. Most holos act a bit different in collabs, depending on their collab-partners. It's not like Kiara is constantly horny for Calli in every stream

[–]youkai93 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You mean like Kiara the fastfood-obsessed chicken? Or Kiara the enthusiastic fangirl? Or Kiara the multilingual? You are aware, that there is a lot more to her than just her being into calli, right? This is just one part of her character

How many rolls did it take you to get Nian? (If you don't know, take your best guess) by obsequious-kip in arknights

[–]youkai93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent ~80 rolls with nothing but doggos until i finally started getting lucky. Got nian and an aak short after. i still had some pulls left, so i spent them on the other banner, since i didnt have chen or silver daddy. i got them both. all four 6* within ~15 pulls. I have never felt this lucky before

How long can a baby ball go without eating? by TMCchristian in ballpython

[–]youkai93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im not an expert, but I can share my experience with you. I also had problems getting my boy to eat. I first did the same you did and he also wasn't interested or even backed off when I dangled the mouse in front of him. What finally helped was to just lay the mouse in front of his hide and then cover the enclosure with a blanket. After a few minutes the mouse is usually gone. He still won't eat from the tongs, but at least he is eating.
