don't think I've ever seen someone express an opinion about ella musk that isn't negative so leaning into it is like at best misguided. especially making a community goal thing where the community doesn't get anything right after the anniversary backlash if it was a prank then ok, I'm not laughing but who cares. bizarre if it's an actual planned event tho

New North American Genshin community PR manager not off to a great start if that Elon Musk thing was their idea to be honest. Kind of pleasantly surprised social media would push back on something legitimately terrible sounding as that was and get it nipped in the bud as it usually embraces these sorts of things instead I find. All of this happened and was removed while I was sleeping basically.  I see Elon Musk as the ultimate self-serving opportunist business celebrity whore in the newfound absence of Trump on twitter who will worm his way into anything and use any meme he can to boost his own image and absolutely loving struggle to figure why anyone at Mihoyo would consider getting involved with him to be a good idea for PR. Like the guy is weird loving gently caress that doesn't give a gently caress about anything beyond the memes and getting to worm his way into the public conversation about something and could easily use his influence to cause damage to the game if he really wanted too so it's so why take that risk at all for some weird loving memes. Like his followers could just have flooded into the Genshin Impact twitter community and make a total mess of things even more than they already are for all anyone knows. Much as I've liked this game it legit now has some of the dumbest most weirdly out of touch PR attempts I've ever seen for a video game in my life in the last month or so and it really does seem to coincide with the new PR manager they got so while I don't want to jump to conclusions it's kind of hard not to wonder right now. Particularly since the PR for the game seemed oddly savvy and like they made some clever localization and marketing choices for most of 2021 such that I was kind of surprised at first how well a Chinese company seemed to understand and make strong inroads into the American gaming market with what was essentially their first attempt with a type of game and aesthetic that is normally not all that popular outside of the Asian market. Nowadays I'm kind of drawing a lot of blanks though much as the community blows some things out of proportion, I just think there was a better pattern established early on as to how to handle all these things. At least the actual game dev side of things seems to be holding up. Kale fucked around with this message at 13:47 on Oct 14, 2021 |

I didn't see anything about this in the patch notes, but is anyone else getting faster load times in 2.2? I haven't had time to play all that much yet, but map transition times between the teapot and the world map, as well as loading the character trials, seem noticably faster now than they used to be.

Only played a couple of hours yesterday, but yeah seemed faster to me too. Anyone have a link to the site that could parse your pulls? I've been disgustingly lucky lately and need to share my guilt.

Am I just being overly worrisome about min maxing? I'm AR 36 and just recently pulled a Wolf's Gravestone so I feel like I should be using that. I have Anemo: MC, Sucrose Electro: Razor, Fischl, Beidou, Lisa Pyro: XL, Klee, Yanfei, Amber Hydro: XQ, Barbara Geo: Noelle, MC Cryo: Kaeya, Chongyun, Rosaria, Aloy I like XQ, XL, and Sucrose. I was running Chongyun before with XL as carry but now I'm thinking of making her support with Beidou as carry because of the 5* claymore. Any team recommendations or should I not care? I don't mind playing any comp.

The gravestone is a good pull. Both chongyun and Beidou support benefits from using it. Sucrose , XQ, and XL are missing a bennet from being the national team. You kind of need him to feed energy to XL to have her burst be a decent uptime. What constellation do you have fischl and beidou? Sucrose, XL, Fischl, Beidou is a taser team that works extremely well, but need constellations to really shine.

ninjoatse.cx posted:The gravestone is a good pull. Both chongyun and Beidou support benefits from using it. Just echoing this. Beidou with that claymore is a beast and probably the best way to get value out of Sucrose and Xingqiu without Bennett, but you'll lose a lot of damage if you don't have her C2. Although, at AR36, you could actually just use Beidou as your main DPS and it would be fine. Normally you'd want Sucrose as the character doing normal attacks just to trigger Beidou's and Xingqiu's bursts while also triggering a ton of swirls, but that's not so important until endgame when everyone has good artifacts. Beidou's normal attacks aren't spectacular, but they're gonna be more than good enough with that weapon. You could even slap one of the (non-Chongyun) cryo characters in there to boost her damage a bit, even if Fischl is certainly better in endgame.

Sucrose also wants a set of at least appropriate main stat VV artifacts to be good, which can be a major investment at that AR if the RNG doesn't go your way.

Though, at least I'm still quite a few ARs from that really mattering. This team seems pretty fun though so I'll give it a shot until I eventually get Bennet to supplement XQ and XL. I appreciate all the feedback! Had a feeling Beidou was the way to go with the Wolf's Gravestone because I don't have Diluc.

I wanted C1 Sayu.)

Giving bootleg Morgana a spin in Abyss now that Aloy's talents are 8/8/8 https://i.imgur.com/dY1ZKAf.mp4 Actually looking forward to trying a full run once reset happens. Sad to split up Chong and XQ, but true soul mates can endure distance. Now I just gotta figure out my second team. Probably XQ/XL/Raiden/Zhongli

Btw if itto interests you at all Serpent Spine R5 is better than his special 5 star. Noelle fans are safe as well and have no need to gamble on the weapon banner. They could fix this and make them somewhat even by giving the claymore Jade cutter's base atk+substat but I feel they won't.

I get that more options is better, but I would feel obligated to get all 5 new ones which would set me back 7 months from my goal of two R5 serpent spines. So I can live with the current arrangement.

The new music is nice. So we are getting a Kazuha event tomorrow, or is it another hangout? Doesn't really matter as long as it's Kazuha  I had 20 consecutive wishes on the standard banner without getting a character, I thought that wasn't possible? Last character was 21 wishes ago.

Isn't there a secret pity on the standard banner where every 30 pulls you get 1 character + 1 weapon, and every 270 you get 1 rare character + 1 rare weapon? I seem to recall someone talking about that many pages ago.
