dogsicle posted:you just learn to never idle on her or Ayaka 👍 I love me some Saori Hayami but that Katana wo Sasae line comes up way to often. Like if I put the game down for 3 minutes she'll probably say it at least 6-7 times alone in that time frame which is way too repetitive for that type of time frame. More than anything instead of adding more birthday and character reference lines or gags the characters need a wider range of idle lines. I'd say like a dozen and randomly picking from them will probably work well enough.

Sanctum posted:This banner has been very kind to me. she's got a few apparent roles so far, so it just kinda depends what you want she's got good off-field hydro application so would be a natural support for freeze teams. she covers the healing slot so the rest of your team could be devoted to damage, and as a catalyst user she's got support weapon options like TT and PA. having a turret means she can also run a full Millelith set to buff the team. the more obvious design intent with her is to let her both heal and deal decent damage, so her burst is a stance change that boosts all her damage based on max hp. it's only a 10s window, so she's going to fit more naturally with other characters who have hard CD limits like Shogun or Yoimiya. she should also slot into the existing Childe teams well enough. you might also find her an easier character to gear, since she's unable to crit and thus actually likes "trash" artifacts that roll hard into hp substats. as usual we'll see understanding of her develop more once she's been out about a week.

So what role is Kokomi supposed to fill? I can get her with all the primos I saved on this banner, unless Thoma is coming soon?
|
Xiao is by far my strongest character purely because I managed to roll some pretty solid artifacts for him and have never bothered to replace any of them, but I don't use him that much unless I Need Something Dead or its a boss I don't have a good elemental counter prepared for. I lucked into C1 for him and his C1 sounds not particularly necessary but it really was like night and day- an extra dash makes his rotation feel so much smoother and no fall damage from plunge attacks means i can just loving launch myself off anywhere without giving a poo poo because i can just come in like an orbital laser and immediately slam into all the enemies like a loving pinball with his air dash

Zwiebel posted:Kokomis english VA is interesting to me, because it feels like a slightly different direction for the character than the other Kokomi voices. Honestly reading the internet these days I'd swear gamers are like 60% ultra horny mega chuds jerking each other off about their perversions and staunch anti-"censorship" stance 24/7, but yeah that's probably just an oversampling based on it being the stupid rear end internet in 2021....I hope. As for Hu Tao's English VA, I believe it's Brianna Knickerbocker who in all my experiences with her she has a very unusual cadence. It's often very earnest and pow in your face line reads of even some of the most mundane dialogue. Based on what I know of Hu Tao she's probably a good fit, but since I've never heard Hu Tao in English I wouldn't be able to give much of an opinion beyond it's one of the ones I'm familiar with. She does characters like Dana in Y's VIII and Sakura/Charlotte/Ninian/Est in Fire Emblem games. Kale fucked around with this message at 03:03 on Sep 15, 2021 |

I wouldn't say Kokomi's easier to gear. She still wants highly specific stats (not just whatever), and crit will be her version of trash stats as well as the classic DEF. Whatever you get for her also isn't going to be transferrable for the most part. Still, I'm having fun doing it, because pretty much everyone I care about is geared and I like having unique sets that "belong" to only one character.

'Gamers' no longer just means 'people who play games'. It is a specific subculture of overdramatic misogynistic CHUDs. There are plenty of people who play games but would recoil at self-identifying as a 'gamer', because of said subculture.

There are plenty of people who play games but would recoil at self-identifying as a 'gamer', because of said subculture. I for one can't loving stand them and deeply resent their speak for all gamer's attitudes about things like how women should be depicted in games and how because they occasionally pay money to buy games or game related stuff (Guess what?! So do I! What a concept!) that they are entitled to be massive shitheads about everything to do with them and harass the poo poo out of developers and staff that make them....very noticeably typically women and very noticeably typically ones of color. If that's what's most important to them then they're REALLY in the wrong hobby the way the wind is blowing and no matter what they think they're never going to get the desperate last stand culture war victory they seem to think they are embroiled in for the "soul of gaming" or whatever, where it's converted into a far-right white male only catering hobby with "non-threatening" far-centric depictions and concepts forever and for always. Somehow I'm pretty sure that game developers and publishers love that year on year growth and diversification of the video game playing audience that's been building since roughly the early 2000's. The selective bitching is really noticeable with them too. For example this is a group that tends to go on and on and on about the bane of micro-transactions when it suits their worldview, which while yes it's a problem it's one they also seem curiously okay with and even an in a Fryshutupandtakemymoney.jpeg posting sense when they feel something about the monetization aligns somehow with their lovely politics to be performative about it in a different sense than usual. Usually this is when it's some sort of sexy waifu character drawing in a gacha game such as this one. \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ Sometimes yeah. I used to believe this was something like an Urban Legend, but I have seen examples of it before. e: For the record this is strictly how THAT group seems to see these characters, as strictly about their aesthetics. Not me. Kale fucked around with this message at 03:41 on Sep 15, 2021 |

imo all of this handwringing about Misogynistic Male Gamers is often used as a cover tactic to reorient conversations entirely around men, as is happening right now, as well as to dismiss the opinions of women who disagree with you, as is done often in conversations about censorship. It's one thing if they're actually present or actively exerting some kind of pressure but in a situation where they blatantly have no power and nobody is expressing an opinion remotely related to them, bringing them up to beat the drum about them is boring at best and distraction at worst. I'd be much more interested in a conversation about genshin's female fanbase, how a lot of that female fanbase also loves characters like ganyu, how the word 'waifu' is often used in a weirdly dismissive way as if female characters can't be appealing or charming unless you're some kinda weird horny anime bro, and the differences between how male and female characters are marketed and treated in this game.

Endorph posted:im sorry i told you you were making me uncomfortable and being weird about women, noted anti-sexist gamer. Are you sure you aren't just assuming things regardless? It's plain to me to see how characters like Ganyu could be popular with women same as men. Plenty of positive character traits to identify with for starters. Don't ever recall stating anything to the contrary to be perfectly honest. I believe I was momentarily replying to a post a guy made about a particular group of gamers, sharing my thoughts and about to move on, but didn't realize I wasn't allowed too. I apologize for this apparent transgression.

Endorph posted:this isnt really true. plenty of those normal people also self-identify as gamers, because the vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast majority of people do not pay attention to a few weirdos on twitter/reddit or let it dictate their word choice. your life would be better off if you followed their lead. Yeah, people need to step back and touch grass for a few hours. A decade ago people were happily calling themselves Gamers for enjoying Farmville and later Candy Crush. The barrier for entry is spending the 2-400$ for a console or downloading Steam and seeing what your computer can run. If you stop willing walking towards the loudest most obnoxious voices in every community every single time, you'll find yourself much happier.

also speaking of characters to add i really hope they support hydro a bit more before the hydro chapter comes around in a couple years. with kokomi hydro will actually have more characters than geo, but at least geo has 1 polearm, 1 sword, 1 catalyst, and one claymore. hydro is at 3 catalysts, 1 bow, 1 sword. and the geo characters fulfill a variety of roles while basically everyone in hydro except childe is some type of support or off field dps character. i want a hydro claymore actually maybe itto is the hydro claymore. hes big and itd be funny if he was an element that was weak to sara.

It occurs to me that we don't even know what he looks like yet, but I'm picturing something like Ayaka only obviously a bishonen samurai guy. Probably a little taller and same color color. Something like a younger Sephiroth but with Ayaka's hair color comes to mind.

The Lone Badger posted:Remember that bishies were just made illegal in China. I thought it was specifically "sissy and effeminate men" or whatever the term is. If he's exhibiting masculine traits or whatever I think Uncle Xi is okay with it, but if not I think it's banned or something. Like to use an FF example again I would figure Sephiroth would make the cut in Xi's China because while he's bishonen he's also pretty stereotypically manly. Tall, well built, a martial samurai war hero type etc. Seymour however probably wouldn't....maybe...I don't know tbh. It's a new mandate in a country that is barely tested and arguably not all that enforceable because it's such a broadly discriminatory and largely unclear (at least in translation, but honestly probably in general) edict. I still swear what probably happened there is he saw some BTS concert on TV and all the adoration and love they are getting as a big part of modern Korean Pop Culture, got all pissed off and threatened by it like he did with Winnie the Pooh and decided to overnight and with limited refining and clarification of legislation just summarily ban any and all similar types of acts with similar types of looks that don't fulfill his image of what he wants China to promote in both it's own domestic culture and cultural imports.
