People who won't roll for Nicole are fags (confirmed metacucks) and fat yumes. Red blooded men and normal women will roll because she's adorable and super sweet
>complaining about yumes Why are you, as a male player, the main target audience of the game, seethe about the most third-class citizen on genshin impact? There are barely any yumes in the game anyways.
>>566608964 >generates fewer particles >no IR >tied to cuck circle >burst dependent imagine having to use a natlan refugee instead of a pretty white woman
>>566609179 because it boggles my mind why you all still play the game that treats you like 3rd class citizens??? instead of seething about men being gay then following up gay af scenarios that just pisses me and yourself off, why not just move to, idk, FGO or LADS?
>Nicole gives a minimum 5% better than C6 aquila Bennet >Buffs last a full rotation >Gives a shield when meta trannies always complain about no sustain and getting interrupted >Vertical investment >More versatile than B >No cuck cage >No worms Yeah listen to the gay pedo who is crying about Lohen
Help me with my pull decision anons. I am choosing between durin and mavuika. I have c1r1 mualani and c1r1 varesa and I love to play those teams, and want them to stay relevant for longer. But currently I don't really have a good pyro for either.
For mualani team I am using either pyro traveler or xl. I kinda like xl more especially in aoe. Oh, and I have c2 xilo so I do not use sucrose if I can help it. For varesa team I use pyro traveler, xl, or my c1r1 arle, yes it's unironically good.
I have spent way too much fucking time researching this, so here are my thoughts. >durin + In terms of damage he is comparable or better than mavuika in OL if not doing crazy combos, and is much easier to play; + enables hex mona for mualani while still allowing me to use my c2 xilo instead of sucrose + will give 40% hydro dmg in the mualani team with the new set - In terms of damage he is comparable or slightly worse than mavuika in a mualani team (you can vape her burst so the gap is larger from what I've seen); - I expect he will actually be a downgrade to my varesa+arle OL team, but it's hard to tell - no full hex set buff in the OL team >mavuika + more damage in the mualani team + more fun to play if doing combos - takes more time on-field (I don't give a shit about her so that's a minus)
Oh, and I do not need mavuika or durin in other teams, neither as a main dps or as off-field dps/support. Just these two teams. So far I am like 50% for rolling durin, 25% for mavuika, and 25% for just skipping both and getting by with OPPA.
>>566608882 I watched his pre-analysis video of her but I'm still rolling. Nicole is such a cute and I regret skipping Fvarka, fuck you metafags for mind controlling me >>566608964 >forces you in the cuck circle for the entirety of his burst
>there was a schizo in sumeru claiming that teyvat is actually not flat >turned out to be true >there's a schizo in nod krai claiming that snezhnaya isn't real >
>>566609467 People can play the game not just for the male characters. This game also has gameplay, story, lore and exploration. It's not that hard to understand. >why not just move to, idk, FGO or LADS Genshin is an open world rpg. LADS is not. FGO is not. In fact, I don't remember a single open world rpg with decent combat system that has male characters with yume pandering. Besides male characters existing the game should have gameplay that is interesting. Not just some retarded card slop.
>>566609507 Right??? Why not be like the HaiKaveh fag that, despite being well fed for 4 straight years, quietly exited and moved to HSR? It just gives the impression that yumes are grumpy cunts but still stay because of sunk cost.
>>566609905 In the 1 team she's not supposed to be used with, Mavuika, she's a few % higher than R1 Bennet. In non Mavuika teams she's better if you only look at damage, ignore IR, ignore particles, ignore she buffs on a skill and not a burst.
>>566609887 >literally one of the more obnoxious things in the thread Come on bro, why would i say no >>566609960 >eternal discord raiders and twitter screencap posters forcing this daily What do you think
>6 years later and the only way Bennett (a 1.x 4*) can be remotely powercrept is a 6.x character WITH ANOTHER 6.x character AND cons hate him or not, at least Bennyboi can give you what you need for as small as a high base ATK weapon and an ancient set everyone has farmed unless you're Gen BETA-level new to the game.
>>566610093 >Sandy will be like the second coming of Ineffa Ineffa is overrated garbage. Wheelchair teams are a meme and only look good at slop kqm standards.
Aether x Columbina is a very much canonically plausible pair. If you have something similar with other characters, post a reply. I respect other ships, but it doesn't mean they all are reasonable at the same level.
I love how the retarded /gig/gers start blaming their boogeymen like zajef or thread personas for the fact that hoyo decided to release nicole in this state. So fuck you, I'm not falling for this propaganda. It's hoyo who fucked up.
>>566610038 And their reasoning was retarded as well: the guy basically seethed about her moving on from wrio and finding another male character in another game to yume, called her a whore and a foid, said beating women is doing them a favour. Just for recognising that the character is a homo and not for them and moving on. Even started to argue about him NOT being a homo (when he obviously is).
For some reason steam is no longer recognizing Genshin throught add non steam game like it dosent show that im playing it any help ? I tried removing and re adding but nothing.
>>566609720 >>566610712 >No unnecessary belts, bows, ties, keychains, or ribbons or tits, or sex appeal, or femininity. It's a fucking xq cosplay, no wonder she is one of the most beloved genshin characters in troon communities
What if there was a character that gave a team that needs a shield a shield whilst the team does 5-10% better on paper and in practice would perform even better. What if that character also has the best support cons in the game?
How did Columbina not realize Sandrone and the others in the Harbingers were her friends. It's just dumb writing that Columbina was just ignorant about this stuff for hundreds of years until traveler came along.
>>566611362 being aloof is a big part of her due to being disconnected to the world. Since the frost moon was outside of teyvat she didn't feel attached to anything or anyone. Play the game before posting please
Hoyo's greed by making Lohen limited has completely backfired on them. Everyone on social media has finally realized how stingy the game is. 60 rolls a patch for dedicated shill teams, mandatory c6 supports, and now 2 limiteds a patch.
>The AI cat spammer is the braziljeet who also spams the revolting ai furina edits who constantly jokes about "slurpers" and "hoyoshills" for genshin aka he doesn't like genshin and also hates on Clorinde and Nicole It all makes sense now Why is it that every anti-clorinde schizo turn out to be an absolute mentally ill freak
>Nefer's EN VA is forcing headcanon yurishit onto Nefer this is why we need to end the EN dub, these fucking voice actors cant stop pushing their agendas in the game
>>566611741 >finally realized Da Wei is shafting millions since early Genshin years, first example to mind is Raiden C3R1, and people had to be blind or whatever to not see this shit getting worse year by year. They had somewhat an excuse in 3.x due to dendro introduction, but since Neuvillette that was clear as fuck.
It would be way more logical if Sandrone, Arlecchino and all those Fatui weren't actually Bina's friends, and were actually wary/scared of her for real. Meanwhile it was Bina who tried to be friendly but due to her extreme autism and sheer power was always somehow weirding them out/terrifying them. Like her appearing behind Sandrone's window at night to sing and ending up scaring the shit out of her. Columbina's game with Arlecchino was something I really liked: Bina tried to join the game but ended up scaring Arle shitless and she stopped playing with completely after. Columbina creeping Pantalone out with something to the point he couldn't estimate her value. Agreeing to spar with Cheld and beating him up and then saying "Wait, I thought we were just playing". Basically, like her leaked personality in those VA guides, I guess?
>>566612089 >retcon when the only thing we know her before Nod Krai is that she's #3 and was weird and distant (still was when we met her for the first time)
>>566611963 It's not exclusive to EN VAs. Sandrone's JP VA does the same shit. Some of the JP VAs were hired together specifically because they are a duo.
>>566612089 >they obviously retconned her. It's more that they didn't really do any planning with her, so they only had a very basic NPC tier character outline that was made 6+ years ago to work with. Arlecchino is the one who got the obvious retcons since she's vastly different from what they initially wanted to portray her as.
People keep saying that Columbina is weird and aloof but she was neither during the Nod Krai AQ. After her first couple appearances, she was initiating conversations with everybody from Dansleif to Durin. We played from her PoV during the festival and the moons reflection and her way of thinking was not weird in anyway, besides being very dumb
>>566612420 >columbina is an oddball but generally harmless >sandrone is prickly but she doesn't hate him as shown with how she never threw him out of her tea parties >never got along with signora even though signora wasn't even a bitch to her coworkers >meanwhile the worst thing he has to say about absolute shitbags like dottore is "Haha I wonder what it'd be like to fight myself" Childe is afraid of women.
>>566612456 >posts one picture of aether >avatarfagging youre mindbroken >>566612343 Ive never seen a JP va try to force their agenda on the game like these EN looneys do
>>566612409 >Arlecchino is the one who got the obvious retcons since she's vastly different from what they initially wanted to portray her as. I hate that they changed the hidden inazuma world quest. The timeline doesn't even line up or did arlecchino somehow grow into adulthood in about a year after killing the pervious knave as a teenager
>>566612723 >Ive never seen a JP va try to force their agenda on the game Sandrone JP VA? Isn't saying "Columbina is Sandrone's" on livestream pushing? The duos are devs basically pushing the ship by themselves.
>>566612870 Im gonna say its different because it was such a few words during hours worth of livestream, shes probably not stupid enough to do something stupid like that on purpose
>rugpulled >have to live off of scraps like they do irl and even calling it scraps is too generous >no art, only AIslop with 7 fingers and 2 right hands KWABtherpags...
>>566612298 I don't think you people understand, despite that restriction and backloading your damage Nicole on Mavuika's team does more. The meta tranny and doomposters like to ignore SO and pretend the first rotaation isn't completely cucked since you're building up your bursts. That's 1 less rotation wasted and for people who are borderline from a clear it's everything.
>>566613050 Interesting. And what did Nefer VA say this time? I'm curious. I wanted to pull Nefer but decided against it because of her restrictiveness to Lauma and Snezhnaya coming up. If the VAs now push yuri, I might have dodged a bullet.
>>566612723 >>566612870 >>566613050 >EN VA does some shit >*fucking ENtroons pieces of shit unprofessional scumbags* >JP VA does some shit >*umm she didn't mean it, it was just a quick few words she's a professional she doesn't know people will screenshot it and talk about it* KWAB
>>566613491 It's more like Varesa >> hags >> Jahoda > Mualani Varesa thighsmogs all. And I am pretty sure Varesa mogs most hags even in the breast department.
>Pantalone has matching accessories with Dottore >Anons didn't even provide a source for it >I'll believe it nonetheless because that's very homoverse style HAH Dodged a bullet. I knew I was making correct decision when I gave up on every single male in this game.
>>566613858 erm akshually Eula is the one who lost since she kept the bottle >Clorinde was personally invited to exchange sword techniques with Eula >Eula read about the fontaine customs so she searched far and wide for *long* even went to Dornman port for the wine >Eula kept the bottle and started drinking it when we met her aka she lost >Clorinde never fights serious and goes easy in non-official duels yep yep yep GODrinde is undefeated even while holding back and beyond the greats of Mondstadt. Would mog Varka in a fight with ease. Kneel.
>>566614043 but that's the exact point, hags are bigger so their thighs and hips should be even thicker yet varesa who's a shortie still has fatter thighs and a crazier hip ratio and again I am not completely sure but even Varesa's tits seem to be bigger than most hags
>>566614030 Do you roll for ML female characters horseyume? If you picked Lumine you'd have to sit through gay shit with characters like Mizuki and Citlali after all
Why is Nahida still sometimes referred to as "Lesser" Lord Kusanali. I thought the entire point of the Sumeru archon quest was to get rid of the "Lesser" title? Maybe I'm misremembering things.
>>566614908 iirc in chinese she's called "small lord kusanali" you know because she's short. But in english they translated it to "lesser" for some reason
>>566614549 I do but it depends whether I like them or not. In general, I can bear the ML cringe because I know it was written for male players, not me. Like Citlali for example, I would roll (and I plan to for Mavuika), because I like Citlali outside of ML as well. Would roll for Nilou if bloom wasn't so out of meta these days. Wouldn't roll for Yucka because I don't find her design pleasing to my eye and don't like her gameplay. Mizuki is standard and a brick, so I'll probably get her at some point. But back when she released, I was a bit sad she's not very useful kit-wise because I liked her character design.
Had a dream where Snezhnaya was called 'Song of the Snowland Fae' and the patch names are 'Frost.' The 10th Harbinger is the Traveler sibling with a gun.
Just because one schizo is mindbroken by Natlan and constantly samefags doesnt mean everyone hates it. Most people are indifferent to it, youre delusional if you think someone spamming Columbina with anti-Natlan seethe is any indication of normal behavior.
>>566616364 They're Gen Z bolsheviks so they think their opinion is the only one that exists and genuinely cannot cope with or comprehend that other opinions exist in the world.
>>566616718 Ironic. I actually wouldn't shitpost niglan as much if you trannies didn't insist I don't actually hate the region's art direction and just wanted troonbalanque when you're the ones slurping boukek to stay relevant
>tfw the poal is just me and some other guy actively fighting each other on tor browser >guy puts vote in fontaine with one ip >i get on the same ip and change his vote to niglan >guy changes his vote on that ip again to fontaine this is kinda fun
>>566616910 I hate the flying disco ball even more than the bike also the manga retcons, xbalnaque trampling over archon lore, and el capoctus joquiratto over mare jivari
>>566616615 >mihoyo promoting white european culture with genshin and fontaine, meanwhile in HSR they did it with america set in 1930 >They were making more money than ever >Start shilling black ooga booga culture since natlan along with ZZZ >Entire company value falls off the face of earth
>>566615808 Objectively speaking, Amphoreus (white greek culture) is the biggest failure in all of Mihoyo resulting in HSR losing half its playerbase, half its revenue and half its engagement.
I just realized that Natlan and ZZZ started at almost the same time (middle 2024) and both started the inevitable downfall of the company. Is it because of black culture promotion or because of urbansloppa? both?
>>566616484 That's the aetherpag who spams in-game screenshots of Aether btw. He said that he doesn't like Columbina as much as he likes Furina and Citlali.
>>566617198 they also released Rappa in HSR so yes. they probably thought it would be cool and epic but didn't consider the possibility that ZZZero sales would flop
I wish Genshin's world had forests like this. There was a ludonarrative dissonance in Nod Krai when they would refer to forests in the story but when you actually explore Nod Krai, there are almost no trees, let alone anything resembling a forest on the amp
>>566617318 It's urbansloppa. They don't understand people want to see fantasy to not think about the dystopia we're currently living in. Urbansloppa is the exact reverse to that.
>>566617373 It will be once it gets 300 posts on danbooru max and flops incredibly hard and the schizos you bootlick so much latch onto that. No one is spending money on slop like that dont be delusional.
>>566617591 I think the developer wearing a Natlan shirt during the Snez livestream did the schizos in for good. The dev team seems to be proud of Natlan, that along with the fact Natlan is constantly being referenced in new story content.
>>566613817 >yae that is not dyke / yuri bait >yae that is actually young and cute >yae that genuinely loves (you) >/gig/ hates it This place is truly full of troons and faggots
>>566617176 xbalanque being mortal and getting a debuff from stepping out of natlan made zhongli's reminiscing about regular meetings of the seven in liyue implausible, as you're left with 6 immortals with an immortal perception of time, and a pyro archon who would have died in a flash from their POV
accordingly, those meetings of the original seven could never have been the source of stability for teyvat they were made out to be, since they can't have lasted longer than xbalanque's remaining lifespan after striking his deal with ronova, so around 50-70 years as he already was an adult it also means his unifying the tribes would have coincided with the other archons prevailing over their respective rival gods in the archon wars which messes up the timeline, not to mention that xbalanque is never mentioned to have fought any gods prior to becoming archon, meaning the concept of archon wars might not even apply to natlan
i.e. the gayest and most useless rewrite in the history of genshin and niglan apologists slurp it up
>>566617945 >100+ total votes now you know it's botted because there's no way we're that many when we peaked around 80+ unique IPs before the IP counter got removed during Fontaine (that was two years ago).
Everyone knows the game is shit. The argument is over which region/era is most responsible for it being shit.
And of course there is a background radiation that at some point in some region the game reached some platonic ideal of "good" and defined what genshin impact should be, and that any part of the game that is not that should be destroyed.
Natlan was bad enough for me to finally quit the game for good so it makes sense that there are still people here who play the game somehow and defend it with their lives
>>566617968 I was expecting schizobabble but the first point makes sense unfortunately. That was probably an oversight or the meetings were much more infrequent but still that would mean the other 6 are meeting randoms everytime. > not to mention that xbalanque is never mentioned to have fought any gods prior to becoming archon, meaning the concept of archon wars might not even apply to natlan It's because Natlan had no gods to fight, Natlan was fucked by the war of funarary flame and it so basically only dragons and humans still remained and the leylines were cooked. To fix this Ronova and a seelie made the night kingdom. And besides in sumeru it wasn't particiularly different since the 3 reigning gods just came to an agreement. Thing about the archon war is that it was entirely rigged by the shades and thier chosen victor could do whatever the fuck they wanted
>>566617294 >Genshin >Sumeru goes all out on fujobaiting >Ignores female characters outside of Nahida >Loses half of its playerbase
>HSR >Amphoreus goes all out on fujobaiting >Giga shills one of the males of said fujo ship >Ignores female characters outside of Elysia >Loses half of its playerbase
>>566616883 usual "theorycrafter" trying to stay relevant now that miliastra DPS testing map disprove all their years of "calculation" on excel just a side note, none of the "calculation" took into account nicole giving your main DPS phantom attack that's almost twice their ATK (buffed by E too)
>>566618218 You want a history lesson anon? Venus is the only planet with a retrograde orbit, meaning that the sun rises in the result and sets in the east. It is also the hottest planet in the solar system since Mercury has a virtually non existant atmosphere. The planets were named after Roman Gods and Venus was known as the Goddess of love and beauty but during the panic wars she was also worshipped because Roman's believed that Venus would lead them to victory. This is also where she got her epithet of Venus Vixtrix which is Latin for Venus the Victorious since vixtrix means a female victor. And Mavuika was the one that led Natlan to victory over the Abyss. >inb4 Venus was blonde She was also depicted as a redhead in several paintings
>>566618478 Amphoreus had a wide variety of problems so it's a bit reductive to say that it was just the homoshilling, but that was definitely a large part of it.
For me, it was just the story was unapologetically shit, on purpose.
>>566618108 Currently me because I'm maintaining ZZZ to see if I drop Genshin for it. But other than that I only play Azur Lane which basically plays itself.
>>566618408 Hoyo games cannibalizing each other is only part of the problem. There's also the fact that players aren't bound to hoyo anymore. Five years ago, you had very little choices if you wanted to play an open world gacha game. Nowadays you have no shortage of options. It's also been long enough that hoyo has legitimately haters now, as opposed to back when genshin released and no one quite knew what to expect from the company.
I AM NOT CRAZY, I know these posters are all the same. I know he's ban evading, right after yesterday. as if I could ever make such mistake. NEVER. NEVER! - I just can't prove it. he changed his ip, he got that stupid mobile phone to quickly change his ip. you think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He's done worse. the cuckposts! are you telling me it just happens like that out of nowhere? NO! He orchestrated it! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since nod krai started, always the same!
>>566618712 Yo thats crazy but where is your achievements. Seems like you go BTFO in being a lorelet so I can understand why you are upset at the moment.
>>566618408 >Is it not just that HYV games cannibalize each other and don't Garner new audiences the way Hoyo thought they would?
all those games' purpose is to create an ecosystem where money is still going to hoyo instead of competitors, and they're different enough to not have significant overlap not a single (educated) person thinks they were going to print infinite launch genshin money forever
>>566618810 I legit don't see how people could hate this pairing, other than mad yurifags or Citlali/Ayakafags, or people that hate Aether for some reason.
>>566618637 >Aztec sun >Swahili title >Maori name >Random ass bike >Now Roman god inspiration What the fuck they were thinking when creating this character
>>566618838 It always takes me a few months to lose the fomo after quitting a gacha. The first time I quit Genshin (3.4) I got lucky that the story and character releases more or less froze until Fontaine, and even then I kept up with the happenings of the game until like the summer event.
>>566618478 >Genshin >Niglan goes all out on MLbrown pandering and powercreep >flops and kills the games >outsold by the region after it
>HSR >shills not one but TWO pagbaits in Amphoreus and started making "roll 4 specific bitches or lose" teams >flops and kills the game >bonus: shills Pagfly in Penacony >75% of players quit in 2.3
>>566618948 I accept your concession. If you actually enjoyed the game and didnt seethe on /gig/ 24/7 you would realize max achievements isnt that hard.
>>566618640 The story was so long and so bloated that I gave up after first two patches, honestly. I just couldn't bother because for all the time I've spent playing all I got is a mediocre plot that didn't manage to hook me. Also felt incredibly pretentious, like it's something genius while it really isn't. It was a slog. Amphoreus story and cast was something that made me lose all interest in HSR and drop it for good.
>>566619349 I've always wondered why the hoyoverse generals are the only place that associates ML with Pags (Aetherpags, Wisepags, Caeluspags). Like male loneliness isn't a worldwide phenomenon and the original ML audience was Japanese salarymen.
You never hear about Roverpags or Gudaopags, for example.
>>566618830 very little reason not to hate hoyo if you ask me, them bringing powercreep to genshin and still no long requested QoL or visual upgrades to old stuff sucks ass

I really enjoyed the Inehoda and Clorivia sex scenes, but the threesome between Nefer, Chevreuse and Yelan was easily the best thing to come out of this event. Quite enjoyed the scenes where Beidou used the Guizhong Ballista too, if only Ningguang were there to watch.
