Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 783

I made some more headway on my Star Trek RPG plans.
I now know where the campaign will be based around, Starbase 152.
Of course the players ship will rarely be there, but having it as an anchor makes things much more homely in its own way.
I have a few ideas to add some quirks to it and such.

Feel free to add suggestions.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 782

Blue Archive are doing their 100 free gacha tickets event currently.
I haven’t got anything good so far, but still have 80 rolls to go.
I got some meta units on the previous gacha fest before this one though so I think it will balance out.

The level process is going slow though.
I kind of miss the early days, where it was easy to get energy to spend on levelling.
But that’s what I get for quitting for a year.

Sword, Tiara & High Heels Chapter 29

Twice today did I mistake this for Demon Sword Maiden while trying to prepare to schedule.
I’m not even sure how.
I guess my brain just autopilot defaults to DSM when doing things on this site because it is what I have done the longest.

Sword, Tiara & High Heels Chapter 28

Do you ever get a craving for a specific brand of something for no particular reason?
I really wanted some sort of mint cake today.
But alas, I am saving money for a greater purpose.
My gacha funds.

No I joke, it’s not for gacha, I want to buy something for the rpg I am running.
But I don’t want to make it easy on myself, so I will only buy it after I have a certain amount of money saved up to discourage my spending.

Automata Maid Chapter 67 Part 2

I have started to fall deep into the Blue Archive hell after starting to play again.
I managed to make a lot of progress in the story, I’m now up to the second half of the Eden Treaty.
I’ve made quite a bit of headway in the current event too, but I’ve obviously hit a wall as far as my level will allow me to go.
So now it’s just optimising my farming for the event currencies so that I can make the most of the material offerings.

Sadly my level isn’t high enough to get the true best rewards, but that’s fine.

Automata Maid Chapter 67 Part 1

I ran a sort of Session 0 for my Star Trek Adventures rpg campaign.
We made the ship and we made a couple of characters, though the characters aren’t finished.
We only have two of the characters down and there might be five players, though one third character is half done in concept.

The starship itself is pretty much set up too with the exception of hte name, but they also want a starbase, so I need to work on that.
The starbase makes sense given the context of the campaign so I shall conceded this annoying technicality.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 781

Apparently I chose the best time in the world to return to Blue Archive (well aside form never leaving of course) as they’re giving away 100 free gacha pulls after the next update.
Man that’s crazy, can you imagine if FGO or something did that?
I mean FGO’s idea for an anniversary event is to make you pay for a character haha.

What a difference in philosophy.
Though what I find interesting is the new story chapter in the asian server is called Final Chapter, but as far as I know they still have more planned unreleased chapters so it’s not very Final is it?
At first I thought “Isn’t two years a bit fast to finish off a gacha games main story?” but then I remember FGO’s first run was two years too, then they did that year semi-sequel before entering the current arc.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 780

It’s getting close to forgetting which translators are good in what fields now.
It’s just slipping from my brain.
I lost my cheat sheet somewhere and it’s annoying.

I used to be able to just write down the strengths and weaknesses of each translator and then go through and quickly check based on that.
But now it’s lost and there’s new translators I have to go through slowly again once more I guess.
I need to quickly rebuild my cheat sheet.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 779

I started playing Blue Archive again a few days ago because a couple of my friends are again, and everyone is talking about the new PV.
I remembered why I stopped playing in the first place today.
Progress just feels, really slow.

I know the game is more like a waifu collector shooter with a game system built around it.
But it just feels really slow to make any progress.
You gain player exp at a fixed rate essentially, for spending stamina.
Which means your progress is locked to your stamina regen.
Unless I am missing something, it will take me days to level up, and I need multiple levels to be able to continue the story.
It’s just so slow.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 778

Sorry everyone, I’m in a massive rush today.
The editing might be a little more patchy than usual as a result.
I really really skimmed through, so it probably barely counts as even proofreading honestly.

Let me know any errors in the comments and I’ll fix them when I get time.

Belfast was trending on twitter today.
Sadly it was not about the Azur Lane ship.

I’m not actually sure what it was about, because clicking the trend brought up every tweet mentioning Belfast and they were extremely random and all over the place.
The algorithm decreed it trending though.

Automata Maid Chapter 66

Recently the formatting of some of the google docs does not translate over well to the site.
But the only fix is going through and deleting loads of lines, which is tiresome at best.

So, I’m gonna see how bad it is, if nobody complains I won’t bother fixing it.

Automata Maid Chapter 65 Part 2

Personally for me one of the more interesting things about online communities is the way they go from really busy in one part of the day to completely inactive in the others.
And this isn’t because of a lack of people either, or that everyone happens to be in the same time zone, or are even busy.
It’s such a strange part of internet psychology that everyone just happens to collectively take a break when activity reduces slightly, reducing the activity further.

I would see if there were any studies on it but I don’t really care that much.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 777

It’s Chapter 777.
Seven hundred and seventy seven. Hmmm, not quite as good when written out.
Absolutely crazy to think we’re 77.7% of the way there to 1000.
Is that previous sentence totally redundant? Yes, yes it is.

But I think it really illustrates how crazy far this novel has come.
Let’s not talk about how much more content the author also has though…
Like, yeah… it’s long. Really long. And still going for some reason!
