I got the Mondstadt Treasure Compass in Genshin Impact.
I cleared up the last 2% exploration I needed on a couple of the regions, but one of them is stuck on 99% and I have a hunch that I’ve found every open chest in that region and there’s one with an obscure trigger condition I’ll need to find. Which will be a nightmare.
Because some of them are super obscure! Like standing on a log.
Or picking up a fruit that’s on a pillar.
Or blowing over a pile of leaves…
I’m going to need to comb an entire section of the map for every interactable just to be sure basically.
With Christmas coming up I’m thinking of writing a .5 chapter and properly getting it done and posted.
Hopefully this time no computer failures happen to delay me…
Anyway.
What chapter do you want a .5 of?
There are a couple on my list but I want you to throw your own suggestions rather than vote on my potentials!
So my volume of the Arpeggio manga was ordered about a month ago now and it’s still not shipped.
This lockdown related stuff sucks!
I mean seriously!
I want to keep reading it!!!
Well it’s not like there’s much of a rush given the like six month wait until the next volume…
But I wanna read it!!!!!!!
My hololive shirt arrived recently and I’ve been thinking of getting it framed as an option.
The problem is with the whole covid stuff and limited movement it’s not like I can walk into the nearest place that might be able to do it and ask if they do.
And if they do it’s kind of impractical for me to drop it off there and then pick up.
I might have to see if I can send emails or just do it myself somehow.
I tried one of this artifact domains on Genshin.
I got my a̲s̲s̲ handed to me.
I might end up quitting the game over this because it’s totally sucked my motivation.
Basically I either need to grind up a totally different team to be able to clear it or use the multiplayer feature that kind of sucks with total strangers I’d rather avoid.
If you’re going to strangle your players for resources don’t suddenly make it compulsory to spend more resources.
That’s not how you get players to open their wallet it’s how you get them to quit.
God it annoys me that a company that got Honkai so perfectly balance keeps screwing this one up.
Banished from the Hero’s Party, I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside is getting an anime!
Try saying that three times fast.
This adds it to the list of many light novels I love that are getting animes of late!
Hopefully something like Altina The Sword Princess is next in line!
Also soon is How A Realist Hero Rebuilt The Kingdom’s anime!
What a time to be alive!
Oh my god. Fischl is amazing.
Her personality is pure gold.
I was dying of laughter while streaming the new event quests.
I hope that the other characters also get quests like these in the future to better get to know them.
Honestly this is a largely overlooked part of gacha game design.
People are way more inclined to roll for characters they are familiar with. Gameplay is only of equal value, not superior.
So World of Warships is doing another chapter of their ongoing Apreggio tie in events.
I love Arpeggio a hell of a lot.
As part of this continued event rerun type thing they’ve rereleased Takao has a buyable DLC.
The catch is she’s SUPER HORRIBLY OVERPRICED!
Like holy hell!
I want her so bad because she’s my Arpeggio waifu but the price is just ludicrous! I could buy two or three whole games for that one ship!
Even if it was half I’d still hesitate because I barely play the game!!!!
What the hell!
I started playing Conan Exiles on a sever with the people I roleplay with on discord.
I’ve been having some great fun doing things over there.
I always enjoy games like that on multiplayer as opposed to solo, mostly because I can do less work.
Other people can do the annoying parts for me and I can do the fun bits.
Like building elevators for no reason.
Those are cool.
How are you guys liking the first couple of chapters on the new volume?
Are you excited for what’s to come?
Does it really feel like a new volume?
What trials and tribulations await?!
Find out next chapter!
Also it feels really weird to see the chapter number drop so drastically.
Here it is folks, Volume 3 of Maiden!
This volume is titled Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto.
Say your fond farewells to Sakura Blizzard and let’s see how things progress together!
Not that I read ahead or anything because you know that’s not my job at all as the editor or something so I don’t have any spoilers on hand I promise you yup there is nothing to see here and you can read in absolute peace knowing that were are totally and uniformly getting the same experience at the same time.
Just as suddenly as it felt like it started, we’ve reached the end of Volume 2!
It’s almost like a bit of a cliffhanger really.
Oh wait maybe that’s because it is?
What have your been your guys feelings about Volume 2?
Sadly I didn’t get to finish any of my .5 chapters due to computer troubles and general nightmarish timing.
Also game addictions.
But I’m sure that Volume 3 will present some juicy potential sources for more spin offs!
Or perhaps to celebrate the end of Volume 2 you should suggest a .5 chapter you’d like me to write!
Well the Genshin Impact full update news is available now.
Really the formatting was a bit of a nightmare but I managed to pick out the important stuff.
I wasn’t expecting a new spontaneous event to coincide with all the story updates but I guess they’re trying to push content hard.
Also I get a free chuuni.
Finally I might be able to build an alternative to my Amber.
Seriously a bow user has become a staple of my team construction but Amber is the only one I have so I have to use her in almost every team I set up!
The only team she’s not in are the ones for vine hacking!
Okay let’s think of something to write!
Well as you remember we hit about 11 on the plot scale of 1 to 10.
The acceleration is about to slow down now though.
Or at least I hope so!
