Next event on JP should be the 2nd half of the Nocturne suit rerun followed by half anni. The maintenance dates will be the 15th and 21st (in Japan) so next Thursday and the following Wednesday nights for US timezones. unless they're doing a 1 week filler before the rerun and then Anni later than normal on somewhere around the 28th which is possible.
>>3086986 so they can double dip milking whales. Cause otherwise people would wait till the rerun event, do 1 pity and get like 2-3 suits they want. splitting it means they have to go to pity twice and have less selection of girls they want. combine this with the move to reward more pulls on a single paid banner. What they're doing is splitting it up so people don't decide to think it's more economical to save for the rerun, but try to get each suit on each girl's birthday. To a degree it works unfortunately. I decided to go for a pity on Nanami's birthday rather than wait till November for the suit, I got 4 Nanami birthday suits out of it at least.
>>3086987 >I got 4 Nanami birthday suits I got Nanami's birthday suit in 10 rolls but then I had to REDEEM Leifang's suit.
I only roll twice to get the ring and oil but it's still expensive. Next year it's going to be even more brutal with the outdoor jacuzzi and a solid 9/10-10/10 suit for every girl.
>>3086988 I decided to go all in this once cause I like Nanami quite a bit, Nocturne was the main draw but I also really like her Jewel (looks like a wedding dress) and Bouquet. I got Nocturne and Bouquet (and Stellar which i don't really care for but whatever), and REDEEM'ed Jewel.
>>3086987 >do 1 pity and get like 2-3 suits they want. i wish this were true last year i wanted tina and hitomi's reincarnation suit and i only had 1 pity and picked hitomi's koei negro needs to be less jewish with gachas in general birthdays, tcs and debuts need to cap at 100 paid pitybreak debut, tc reruns and old birthday suits are also at 100 paid pitybreak but at 3.3% normal gachas should either be 3/3 at 3.3% or 3.3% banners with a guaranteed ssr at 6/6 with a 100 pitybreak mass girl banners should always have a redeem feature but cap it to 100 instead of 200 times are tough and more people will whale if its not economically brutal
>>3086991 so far I haven't had terrible luck on those rerun events, I almost did on Reincarnation I got Yukino at like 75k and then redeemed for Tamaki, I got a few others with luck sacking and I got Nanami's with a moderate amount of rolls on her birthday since the decision to go for the rerun came later. I got 3 dolces when I did that one. I didn't do it for any others and I'll be skipping it for the future I think.
>>3086992 i wrote all of this autistically and with more detail on the survery and even posted it on steam forums but the mouthbreathers there only want getting lisa, christie and mila i bet none of them asked for verified steam deck integration and the removal of region lock of all penis vacation related games on just asia
>>3086993 yeah I agree but I think the chances of them being more consumer friendly are practically 0 unfortunately. and unfortunately I think the chances of them being more gaijin friendly are even less likely. thankfully, the people asking for mila, christie and lisa tend to be pure f2p so KT just ignores them.
>New Misty Lilly on JP >Meg x2, Azusa, Sayuri DONE I really should've stopped at Meg since she showed up early but this swimsuit is among my top favorites from early in the game's life.
>>3086986 Presumably unfair to whales that got their birthday girls who were closer to the typical rerun prior to anniversary, since you could get lucky on your way to 200 and exchange for anyone. Compare that to the case where you got birthday swimsuits for your girl each year but only finally rolled the new one at 190 or something. What the other anon said applies too, pool reduction and requires two runs of 200 if that was the only time you were tempted to paypig.
people are insane rolling on banners 2 weeks before an anni. though I did get baited both weeks of the Patty TC event but I got what I wanted by some miracle and still had about 100k at least.
>>3087669 DMM's half anni, I kinda mixed up what's going on in Steam and DMM I guess, nm, steam isn't closing on anni just.. hopefully golden week next? DMM is Misty Lily but a lot of people went for broke cause they wanted Kasumi or some other girl's misty lily
>thinking about taking Wifesaki pics >win the daily free roll today and get this It was a sign. They want me to take pictures of her butt. Dunno if I should use this costume though since I'm just going to take her pants off anyways. Like almost immediately as well.
>>3090532 The OG DOA voice actresses all could hit 70-80+ and they will still be never replaced because Nips are stupid. When DOA7 hits even some of the VV voice actresses will be in their late 30s/early 40s.
Yeah das rite, even grills like Nanami, Amy, Reika, etc. will have hag VAs.
It should be a baton pass like Mickey Mouse and Mario, changed after 20 years.
>>3090540 they should. now old school fans will claim that she still sounds the same. They won't even notice that the voice has aged if they've consistently played the character for 30 years. Your brain actually perceives an "ideal" voice in your head rather than hearing what's actually coming in your ears, your brain just updates the gradual change to match what it heard years ago. For people who don't have that though they just hear granny voices. It's kind of a psychological nostalgia filter. But yeah i dread the day we have post menopause Tamaki, Nanami, Elise, and shit
>>3090815 I don't even touch the items that change shape desu. Only bounce items. Maybe make a busty girl sag a bit sure. That's understandable. But I don't trust that it won't look off for girls with smaller chests.
does that mean ayane gets left out on future banners especially halloween? they'll recast her eventually if not already and to showcase her new va she'll get a true colours
>>3090948 they'd just used archived lines already recorded but she'll probably be silent if they have a place where other actresses have new recorded lines, and they'll definitely postpone a TC, I don't think she recorded one ahead of time yet.
>>3090947 The article anon posted says she passed April 18th. >>3090948 Who knows, I wonder if everything will get replaced or if they'll keep her old lines and continue the rest with a new voice actress?
>>3090956 I'd feel better since apparently this happened a month ago so I didin't in this thread cause her death but... I always griped about Ayane's old lady voice. I always wanted her recast, but just cause I didn't think she fit. But I would rather the directors just to go "you know a 60 year old just doesn't work for an 18 year old character" not dying.
>>3090540 We really only have to worry about that for the original DOA girls I think, and they are old but not super old yet. The VV originals are like around the average anon's age range here I think.
>>3090986 that's be why you can't perceive the gradual aging.
go listen to clips of Mufasa in 1994 compared to Mufasa in 2019. I'll spare you doing this juxtaposition with Ayane. If you do it you won't be able to unhear it. So to preserve your enjoyment of the character, watch these: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAJKHj-EFIg vs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjKpX-axoBU when you grow up on star wars and lion king and then hear them later on you don't hear the slow march of age over time, they always sound the same.... until you directly compare them young to old. So understand the concept of gradual change over time not being noticeable, vs what everyone else hearing for the first time when they're older hears. She sounds young to you, but not anyone new.
>>3091626 xitter spammer is annoying because he floods the image limit with multiple pictures from the same set. just.. give us 1 picture and a link where to find the rest.
>>3091628 Not only that, most of those images are common as fuck. Most of them have zero effort to do something different. All the same pose, the same suits, etc.
>>3091784 Started out as a voice actress who likes Tsukushi. Became the host for the lives for a while now. TN even made Azusa so she could have a character of her own.
Anyone know what is up with this account? It suddenly showed up for me today.
It's an account with no posts but is followed by the official account. It's also verified if that means anything. Like it's an account they made for future use or something but then was never touched. I just thought it was odd.
>>3092136 Public Relations. I'm not entirely sure what it means maybe they want a second account for specific public outreach that's not directly game related like Wakana's passing, but Team Ninja already did a post and they retweeted it on the main game account.
>>3092572 Her original VA dying ups the chances of her and Kasumi getting a TC.
Since TCs since Kokoro are fully voiced now it's the best thang to showcase Ayane's new VA, whoever she is.
Her original VA dying will also put pressure on KT to showcase the OG girls more, in case they start dropping as well. That means literal hags like Leifang, Tina and Momiji.
>>3092576 Still a Jap studio, they'll never touch AIsloppa voices lest they'll be shat on by the Japanese voice actor industry.
The only question is will they pick a veteran whom they will also replace again in a decade or so or go young and put tremendous pressure on her to keep up.
>>3092572 Pretty much >>3092576 AI voices is big no in Japan and most of the world. I do think that most VAs would feel insulted and attacked if studios start using AI to replace late voice actors.
>>3092576 >>3092578 >>3092593 I just wish Japan was more open to using AI to de-age voices. 50+ year old women do not sound convincing as 18 year olds. Either that or age up the characters over time. Using AI to "resurrect" a dead actor is a big no though. A living actor can agree to let them use AI to de-age their voice, and they do in the west sometimes. but JP would rather have Granny Goku.
>>3092578 I'd hope they'd base it on 1996 Ayane, get the character to sound and match her looks. So that'd have to be someone relatively new, 30ish tops.
I accidentally rolled for one of Shizuku's debut suits, got her on the first roll on the last couple of days of her event and I've always turned off her ears and tail.
>>3093142 I basically only have paid stones if I intend to roll specific birthday or TC banners on JP, on Steam I might have under 5k laying around for autopass. But you have to confirm before it actually rolls. so I still don't get how you click and then click confirm after showing that it'd cost paid stones on accident.
you can't rape tsukushi anymore and turn her into your personal cum toilet since azusa is there to beat you up and run you over with her bike also shizuku asks romance questions from a squirrel
I'm looking for VV and Prism OST. Hopefully up to date. The one on khinsider seems to be uploaded ages ago. hard mode: flac, but I'll take mp3 also if no flacs exist.
>>3094404 Probably. But I only ever had access to UG and sows. >>3094424 Can't really use in-game radio when I'm not at home. And I'd like to avoid ripping music from youtube and paying for spotify.
