Genshin Impact

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I decided to give Black Beacon a try. Managed to nab two 5 stars from the starter banner. It's basically a H3I clone. Sadly, like @LucasSomething posted, the game lacks a PC client, and although you can play it on PC through Google Play, the game doesn't have controller support.

I haven't been able to progress a lot due to that. Playing a combat game on a phone is annoying as fuck and keyboard on PC sucks even more. It's also been having a lot of issues like bugs and people not able to log in through Google, so they gave out more pulls because of that.

The game looks aesthetically similar to Reverse 1999 and they have a darkie! I don't get the story much, but it takes place in the Tower of Babel and there's time travel shenanigans.
 
Huh, look at that. Watch it all go in speed anf flat HP for some reason.
Going all speed is great for some units (cypher even converts speed into crit), not acheron tho. I farmed this for months and never got my acheron a full set, she and ratio use 2 piece spares.

Game is way too late with character model. I can't get over with how much noodle arms (tall female) look with entire body proportion. Oh well, it's not like this is a billions dollar worth company.

Every woman in hoyo has noodle arms but ZZZ gives them huge boobs and thick thighs so it looks disproportionally terrible. At least varesa masks her baby arms with detached sleeves.

YiXuan looks even worse, like an actual gooner game model jeez. I guess hoyo thinks semi realistic arm proportions would scare the average chinese incel.
 
Phase 1: Vivian - Jane
Phase 2: Hugo = Lighter
Man I am going to grind so hard for phase two my bones might turn to dust. But on the flip side it means getting Lighters W engine.

...My god that really is just Anby after a boob job. Right down to the color scheme. Or Hersher who I am guessing is a HI3 character as pointed out by @LucasSomething
that's just an annoying reminder, the whole DO IT IN TWO WEEKS OR MISS OUT ON PRIMOS AND SHIT THAT COSTS RESIN is much worse.
The latter certainly is more psychologically predatory. But both are genuinely annoying. The stupid reminder can't be turned off BTW.

MHY, why?

Anyway played the seal event before even touching the new story update so I understood little of the story but regardless it was a cute event.

I gotta say though Star Rail has been ramping it up with cutesy mascots in the events lately. Or maybe it has always just been a thing.

Edit: word

This is the hersher of void in honkai 3 btw. She is Kiana's (first MC) goddess form and is usually associated with white/black/gold colors. I think the first banner in tribe nine might've been inspired by HoV gameplay (can shoot and move at the same time since both float).

She was the first playable hersher with a lot of hype and helped kickstart HI3 sucess so it makes sense hoyo has a soft spot for her, especially since they make an expy of her every game, (genshin unknown goddes, trailblazer and i assume now yixuan).

Unrelated but i heard yixuan is called a "Void hunter rank" special investigator implying she's canonically strong as a void hunter without being a void hunter. If true then i guess zzz can have powercreep and people still defend the lore so it's good for them?
 
RIP Miyabi.
Nevermind that, what about the other void hunters? They are currently just listed as "status unknown" or "disappeared into the hollow".

Sure, they'd be very old chronologically but you know, we got white-haired goddess angel anime thots and little yokai sword sprites in my furry horny sci-fi game so anything is possible.


And if Tingyun has proven anything, that bitch ain't dead until she's dead DEAD. Yes, there was the neck snap heard around the Luofu but the game mentioned they never found the body which could imply any number of things.

Edit: Also managed to work my way to 50 pity already for Cas since I got that guarantee.

Since I'm pulling double duty for Jiaoqiu and Cas....*sigh*

On the flip side, I've been grinding for Acheron traces and she's becoming a strong little glass canon. I really want Es and her lightcone but fucking hell I'm not doing quadruple duty in this game or any Gacha game.

I wish they'd stop with the triple banners. It's FOMO overload. They should take notes from WuWa and just have a single limited banner for like one character for an entire phase or something once in a while.

That said, WuWa should absolutely not take notes from HSR and add a limited 5* E dupe shop and lock characters behind that paywall. I'm still annoyed that they did that.

Just began the new story expansion of HSR and Jesus Christ some of the dialouge options make Trailblazer out to be some kind of sociopath. It feels kinda ramped up here but it's darkly amusing to see the options of laughing at Dan Heng for getting knocked the fuck out by a rock to the head after he just told us that we were gravely injured and bleeding to death.

Also Mem speaks more actual words now. Rejoice! It's only slightly less annoying now.

Did not see this but apparently WuWa stealth censored Cantarella underwear and camel toe

1744473271466.png

This might've been the reason the rating upped to +16 due to nudity unironically and she's apparently not the only one with camel toe (but why?)

Aww fuck, I forgot about genshins limited event. Think I can cram it and the tribe quest into one day?

I almost forgot it so i'm doing it right now because i dont have Ororon so i want to at least grab him. A lot of talking to start but i got the event stuff now, so i'll see how long it goes.

On murica server the event ends tomorrow so if you can spare your sunday you should be able to do it. Varesa's quest ends with her banner in 4 days and some people hate it cause its apparently her eating stuff and being insecure. It should require the first and second tribe quests tho.

edit: i'm done with event missions, it wasn't that bad. The dino minigame is simple and i didnt even know you could spring by pressing E so it could've been faster. The capture the flag mission is confusing at first but not bad. You either go around in a zone doing small objectives to get energy to break a barrier and fight a miniboss (6-7 minutes) or fight waves of enemies for 4~ minutes.

It should be easy to do it all in less than 2 hours but there is a catch. You don't get the crown from 100% the missions, you get from completing the story quest with Ifa, which i never seen before. It shouldn't take too long if you mash i guess.

Apparently the "cameltoe" was a shading glitch that happened with a few other characters that they did eventually fix, but the second one is def because haters complained to the CN government about it (allegedly). It did trigger so many gooners to cry out censorship as if Cantarella wasn't a sexy femme fatale and that somehow they only rolled for her now because of that crotch glitch.

Ironic tho concidering that Scar's weird design choice of a black strip in his groin of a mostly white body suit (named the Onigiri) being removed and redesigned is demanded by the same people who were now crying over the Cantarella crotch glitch.
 
Goodness gracious grief they are going stupid hard with the Castorice hype/gazing.

Now I don't mind because I like Cas but has any character gotten their own in game animation sequence and epic intro if you use their skill?

Also I'm such a sap. I fucking teared up during the anime. MHY be doing everything in their power to make me like this bitch and it's working.
 
Supposedly this is going to be a thing moving forward because of Wuwa's 5* screens.
No way, seriously?

Edit: As iffy as I am of the universal meta and my worries it will break the game with insane power creep and how invasive it feels, I am also quite retarded because the knife ear of death propaganda worked stupidly well and would you look at that.
despair and misery.webp
Now I sort of regret not getting Luocha instead of Ruan Mei since my Firefly is still somewhat of a Mayfly so I don't use her much but Cas can work with my E6 Gallagher just fine if that one story sequence is anything to go by.

I am though in need of a secondary healer for Mydei but hopefully Hyacine will be the answer to all my woes.

Time to get gray hair over Jiaoqiu. Please, RNG. Have mercy.

Hoyo actually pushed castorice chinese VA into doing 3 fake phone calls to the player which is hilarious


I guess it's better than snowbreak foot ASMR videos (real thing).

Ruan Mei is more valuable than luocha, hyacine is going to be best in slot for castorice, midey and blade. She buffs max hp, heals when hp is lost and aoe cleanse and her summon does AoE damage with free 100% crit rate and dmg bonus from hp conversion.

But hoyo kinda split her kit into relics and cone. Her cone gives 18% speed, damages team by 1% hp (so her summon can trigger on her own turn) and converts that lost damage into true damage bonus and buffs team dmg. Her relics increase speed and increase team damage on summon heal.

She is also apparently not a huge upgrade right now because she doesn't heal much more than Luocha but it's V1 and this is star rail so i expect her to be buffed hard and powercreep him while still being OP in other teams.

btw Black beacon is giving 30 standard rolls to compensate for the google login issues but only if you insert 3 codes until tomorrow, which sounds like a sneaky way to avoid compensating since they could just send them to mail lol.


There was also a trailer for the incoming WuWa anniversary stream that will be on april 19.

Now I don't mind because I like Cas but has any character gotten their own in game animation sequence and epic intro if you use their skill?

Castorice also completely changes the battlefield to a flowerfield and leakers are saying this is probably experimenting for the incoming Fate units, meaning Archer will 99% summon unlimited blade works aka the most iconic sword graveyard ever (yeah, hoyo would be insane to not do this).

Leakers are saying Archer will be free 5* hunt (of course) quantum and saber will be 5* wind destruction, both will have banners and eidolons.

Lol stop.

STOP.
:story:
Why are CN gooners like this?

Western gooners aren't much better. Gooning is the thing that brings world peace and cultural understanding I guess.

Half-joking aside;
Ruan Mei is more valuable than luocha,
Yes, but Otto Apocalypse! Whoever that is! I just see people scream that whenever Luocha is brought up.

That's fine. I just need a healer who's not Natasha, Bailu or Lynx. I still need to get Lingsha though. Please don't drop her in that shit shop.

Huh.

I wanna make some kind of joke about how they will be as useful as Aloy was in Genshin but what do I know?

I think I'll skip though because I've fallen out of love with Fate years ago.

Speaking of jokes, Hoyolab kinda lost its shit for a moment because someone posted this fake joke leak about Anaxa's passive.

I can't believe people actually took it seriously.
 
Lol stop.

I got it wrong, it was in all languages across 3 days. It's not really goonerish but does feel like hoyo is trying too hard.

Aloy feels like Sony forced them to put her in order to get the game on playstation and genshin made her thrash and no marketing out of spite. They even nerfed her in the beta to make sure.

The devs are massive FATE fans and have sprinkled multiple hard references in their games (Childe being a bow user with dual blades is an Archer reference). I think they will make saber and archer really strong and since they're crossover units who might never rerun, i expect their eidolons to be completely broken so whale E6 on FOMO.
