So it seems that the Discord mobile app pulled a Code Lyoko and made a Return to the Past for the UI design.
Sorry, I couldn’t resist making that reference after I realised I typed “return to the past”…
Sue me.
Looks like their experiment with the bottom hot bar is finally at an end, I rejoice.
You won’t believe it… I managed to do the final Star Rail boss fight…
The team I used was: Trial HTB, March, Serval and Asta!
It came a bit close, but considering that Serval and Asta were Level 70 with Level 70 cones… and their traces were nothing to speak of…
Asta really came in clutch towards the end, though Serval did the most work overall.
I managed to squeeze three turns into one break window on the second phase thanks to Asta spamming Ult!
If she had an energy regen relic on her I might have even pulled off a fourth…
So although this chapter is scheduled for the 19th it’s not actually going live on the 19th for me.
Which means it’s not today’s chapter but tomorrow’s that will be on my birthday.
I think…
So this will be a few hours early.
If my understand of temporal mechanics is correct, that is.
Unrelated but it was hell scheduling this chapter, cloudflare went down which meant I couldn’t access wordpress in my area…
Oops!
This chapter has illustrations of the characters attached!
They’re actually over on the official wiki for the story but we included them here too!
Honestly it’s crazy these are just web novels set in an rpg systems world…
It’s like DnD fanfic… except not actually “fan” fiction… considering it’s the writer…
So are you people playing the new Star Rail update?
That’s all I hear about currently from my friends.
Robin this, Sparkle that…
Okay, well Robin and Firefly are cute so I permit those discussions in my presence.
From the gacha pull screenshots it looks like Robin is the banner right now?
I’m struggling with a social group that I play games with lately.
Honestly it feels really pathetic to say that when I’m over 25…
But I get along with half the group on an individual basis, but I’m just really bad with them as a whole group and some of the other members.
As a result I’m starting to disconnect from the ones I do actually like…
They tend to overshare too, there’s very few secrets in that group.
Well, it’s difficult… I will have to figure something out.
I think part of the problem is the fact that some of the members are quite possibly ten years younger thanks to how online spaces work…
Sorry for the weird vent! Just putting thoughts to paper, well, thoughts to keyboard? Anyway, chapter!
Three of my friends on discord are playing Destiny 2 right now.
I think they’re being held hostage.
Every time I hear about that game it’s because of complaints!
Why are playing?!
What mystical brainwashing power does it hold???
So, we’re starting a new volume.
Volume 2!
I can’t remember if volumes have names in this novel…
Anyway, don’t be surprised when you’re greeted with a sudden cover image.
That’s normal for new volumes… probably? Actually I have no idea.
Shhhh.
Pretend I know what I am talking about and being competent!
My friend made me watch MyGO today.
We binged the entire thing.
It has been at least a year since I binged an anime entirely in one sitting.
Although I did cut it close with Frieren, I binged enough episodes of that to count since I literally watched the entire second half in one go, just not the whole thing.
I guess that makes it a semantics argument. But both were in the past couple of weeks, maybe my ability to binge is returning.
Maybe I can return to the glory days of watching 72 episodes of something back-to-back. Yes, I really did that.
Reverse Collapse reached 69% positive on Steam today.
We’re finally beating the chinese review bombing.
Also nice.
Anyway this is my plug that you should buy and play Reverse Collapse, great strategy game.
It’s like anime XCOM, sort of… well really it’s not very XCOM at all but that’s not the point.
Just play it and find out!
I was just leaving youtube to autoplay some stuff and Shelter started playing.
That is like double nostalgic to me.
First it reminds me of when it released, and second it reminds me of when I used to use it as my editing background noise.
Every time I listen to it I get the urge to write a short story too, because the lyrics paint a really vivid image in my mind of a situation.
But, anyway.
Here’s your chapter.
With the main story of Reverse Collapse behind me I am now hunting the final achievements.
Two of them are related to the New Game+ so I am working my way through that currently…
The last one however is related to the gameplay mode which is a 1:1 remake of the original game…
