Hey I'm just posting to again lament how the Really Good version of the MC uses a stupid WoW sword instead of a baseball bat, and it bums me out a lot

Why isn't it a burning baseball bat

true

i refuse to switch to boring sword trailblazer. baseball street punk forever

on the notes of the derail thank you for the recommendations. in high school i watched some animes like Kaiji and Akagi and Black Lagoon very badass stuff. i also was exposed to the worst stereotypes through more anime friends and the internet in those years. more recently ive dabbled in episodes of One Punch Man, JoJo, all the cool poo poo but i didnt get sucked in to continue. HI3 makes me want to finally watch Evangelion i think?

my favourite anime film is Mind Game which has a funny butt joke action scene in the beginning. i remember watching Devilman Crybaby and liking it, and ive seen Your Name and Space Dandy but mostly forget those. i guess i am biased to like action stuff in anime but not shonen except the immortal Dragon Ball, and in all genres including video games i like a good space fantasy setting, like Star Rail.

part of the appeal of Honkai is the jrpg format but with Chinese characteristics. i wanna see more of China’s cultural stuff in mainstream poo poo, as a longtime fan of Asian live action films and everything else (even Dragon Ball is based on Journey To The West so that explains why it’s so good).

Star Rail (and HI3) gameplay is pretty good imo and the story / universe is intriguing. i was surprised how sucked into it i got. i was recommended it by a Vietnamese friend from film school (we just graduated together last month) when i was mad i couldnt afford Zelda and had sold my switch to pay rent (had to book off more days than expected for film shoots). the game successfully distracted me from Zelda and is like a modern Phantasy Star of sorts which is one of the best JRPGs imo (i never finish JRPGs either but have dabbled in plenty).

one cool east meets west type jrpg is Dragon’s Dogma, and if Honkai Universe had a game like that it would be cool imo. and yeah i feel like every deadly sin of the genre has been covered in the last few pages. i dont mean to pose as a normie ive seen the culture first hand, but this gacha world is all basically brand new to me so definitely was caught off guard by some of Impact’s poo poo.

i appreciate the effort from all in the derail. i enjoyed jumping in this thread to admit i was playing Impact, as i am of the subset of goons that declares i dont believe in a guilty pleasure. i think “ironically” enjoying things is just being too insecure to admit you enjoy them. but its normal to have caveats. sometimes controversial ones

apologies for the way off topic tangents this caused. on topic: i still havent beaten Forgotten Hall 15, slowly tackling it with different teams and grinding trace/relics. that goth dude Blade looks pretty cool, i hope he’s in the next banner. i guess next story content has to feature him? his mentions in the game so far got me intrigued.

anime is blood

i am enjoying playing this game. i like doing the dailies and got all my characters up to 50 with maxed out light cones and traces. now i'm excited to continue the main quest on the second planet before eventually going to equilibrium 3. fun game, cool characters, owlbert is chill

Are there any dead playable characters in Genshin? My guess is that there won't be any final lessons in this one for quite a while at least.

i haven't seen folks mention it that much but it's an absolute dream that i don't have to run around the map looking for materials to level up my guys. i refuse to go searching for little seedpods or cocomelons or fireflowers or some garbage for three weeks so i can ascend someone

.... They are rare as hens' teeth at TL50, so you have to convert them up from blues, which are 1 per 10 stamina. And you need multiple of them per trace level.

i'm currently prefarming hens' teeth for the foghorn leghorn space lawyer we're getting 8 patches from now

Those stats are skewed toward whales because they're based on Memory of Chaos, and a ton of f2p or low paying players won't bother playing it at this point if ever.

Why is day 2 of this event, with the trial Luocha, so much loving harder than all the rest? I can't get the 6 waves on Supergiant no matter what I try. I have to play absolutely perfectly to kill wave 1, 2, 4 and 5 in a single round each, and then the big robots are just a giant loving pile of HP that I can't kill in two turns even with a 400% ATK buff.

yeah i can't do supergiant on that level but every other day is fine. them's the breaks i guess

Different Welt. Welt Yang adopted the clone of the real Welt, Welt Joyce. Welt Yang is actually called Joachim Nokianvirtanen. Joyce passed on his powers and name to Joachim as he was dying. And then "Welt" took his mothers last name because loving Nokianvirtanen stands out, you know? And then like a hundred years later he found a clone of Joyce and took the kid under his wing, as one does.

what the heck are you talking about welt is just a guy with a cane who ride the train
