#afk leaks

[mysaldate]

What was that about Chinese companies not being able to get anything through the censorship?

Aside from ditching their allies to be together, adopting kids together, getting imprisoned and tortured for it and still fighting to be together again, they have matching splash arts AND two hearts in their stained glass art.

The only way they could be any more obvious would be if they, idk, got called soulmates or sang about kissing each other or something... Oh wait.

as mentioned in my previous post, here's the renders for characters yet to be released that i found within the game files! (assuming that's the case bc i couldn't find the prefabs/animators for them AT ALL, and i'm still in vaduso mountain so idk if they can already be seen in-game or not)

from the game files, seems the devs have already coded in the animationclips for all these characters so all of them may be playable in the future (except for the last character as there's no animationclips for them at all buuuut that may change!)

also you can check the ALT text for their internal names!

all model assets belong to lilith games. i do not claim ownership over them, i just like finding things from game files. you are freely allowed to repost these images!

Thinking about the Solitaries recently.

There is not much lore, it saddens me.

I think from his interaction with Vala and #7 in his Tales, it's a case of the Solitaries becoming part of The Heroic Order after Valen's capture.

When he tries to be smooth with Vala, during that interaction she says "The Heroic Order are the swords and shields of the nobility. How can one be unaware of those who serve them?" Meaning the Solitaries as a group server under The Heroic Order and not just Valen.

But from #7 in his Tales, one of the Solitaries is questioning how Hogan managed to catch Valen (referring to Valen as "the captain"), implying they were their own thing before this point.

While it's currently unknown (as far as I'm aware) how long it's been since they began working under The Heroic Order, it can be assumed it's a while considering how Vala makes no mention of the Solitaries as anything except a branch of The Heroic Order

[This next part is from a conversation I had with my friend masondjar]

It would also explain why Valen does undercover work, I think before his capture the Solitaries were a lot more morally grey, definitely not legal by any means.

I don't think they captured him to make him join The Heroic Order, but he hit Hogan with that pathetic white boy stare and poor Hogan was like "oh he's baby... my child... my son now..." and they ended up striking some sort of deal.

In the words of mister d.jar because they put it in baby terms for me after my brain died and I like their funny words:

"i was just like. wondering if they were tasked to do other things before being ushered into the heroic order? i dont think they were doing everything the heroic order wanted them to do. it feels similar to anonymous and how people become white hat hackers. anonymous is a group of people who tend to "troll" big companies and people. leaking, doxxing, internet sleuth kinds of things but morally grey - not really good but not really bad. white hat hackers are people the government takes in to deal with, break down and study potentially harmful viruses, trojans etc. they typically come from a background of prior hacking and creating malicious malware. so with him being "captured" i dont think they captured him in order to ask him to join the heroic order - least not outright. he may have been a lot more morally grey at that point and had done some things the heroic order wanted him to "atone" for yknow - justice to its fullest sorta thing"

Uh so yeah thanks for attending my yap session about Mister Valen AFK Journey :]

about DPS being king, it also feels Hypergryph introducing more mechanics that counter high dps bursts operators tends to not be received well by the community? Like emperor's blade directly targeting the highest damage dealer with forced retreat and damatzi cluster requiring blocking and high sustain rather than burst damage both seemed to have their wealth of people who complained about them. Is this a design failure on their part?

These are inevitabilities of trying to work around the absurd damage dealers put into the game, and yet DPS is still amazing. Emperor's Blade was specifically made to counter Surtr (forced retreat is the only mechanic capable of killing her through her immortality talent) and yet one of the easiest solutions to Emperor's Blade on release was to kill EB with Surtr over multiple deployments.

These things draw a lot of flak because they're quite hard to play against (and often finding alternative clears with less commonly used operators involves a lot of work and clever thinking), while also making players feel like they're being punished for the overpowered operators that HG released in the first place. When DPS is inherently king in a Tower Defense, it's pretty difficult to try to counter DPS while making units that do less damage have an easier time than the OP units that led to this in the first place.

Just look at POO's massive power armors with literal millions of HP, just to counter all the big DPS units from over the years. They have so much health that you can't kill them with these units that do spectacularly high damage on manually activated skills, you just stall them forever and AFK for 2 hours as you eventually kill them with an automatic defense.

That's a pain in the ass to deal with. (Just don't take the HP risks and leak the Gundams and Dorothy instead).

So far people seem… less salty about the finale than I expected. At least that‘s the impression I get

Probably because of -

Timezones (AKA some folks haven't watched the episode/reblogged posts and content yet)

Some choosing to focus on the stuff that sparks joy from the episode to spare their blood pressure

Some having checked out entirely and are going AFK/offline to process

Are like me and spoiled themselves with the leaked scripts, so they likely already got all the salt out of their systems months ago and any more at this point would be redundant

That time of the week again where I get through the new annihilation and get one leak at 350 or 380 enemies after 20 minutes of mind numbing waiting, decide it's not worth it, and then just PRTS proxy auto deploy Lungmen downtown instead. My weekly limit is 1800 already, the one time rewards for 400/400 and mildly better sanity efficiency can wait until I try again next week. I would just look up an AFK guide at this point because dealing with bullies is not worth the satisfaction of assembling a clear myself, but I don't have Thorns so that rules out like 90% of videos.

#arknights #the previous couple annihilations were fun and interesting this one just sucks so hard #tiny deploy limit at the start so you can't just throw everyone down and space out #bullies that take up all the block count of your defenders paired with the incredibly fast moving rocket launcher guys and war phantoms #so that by the time you realize all your block count is taken up they're already in the blue box before you have time to use texas or yato

no fucking way that afk arena leak about a whole new fucking faction was real LMAO

ok misc stream thoughts!!!

ANYWAY livestream over nice 30 pulls of aventurine funds for anni!!!! they didnt do anything insane but honestly it was kinda cope to expect them to, ratio for free was clearly a more of a spontaneous move and hes available throughout anniversary anyway so the "another 5*" were.... a little over the top im sorry wjkjwdjkwdjk altho i wouldnt have complained obviously. a free himeko or sth couldve been on theme for the cosmodussy event but eh cant be helped

im actually glad for the skippability of the reruns 😭😭 like i have luocha n jingliu (+ LC for latter) so by skipping acheron for now im gonna have a nice time getting aventurine and most likely his LC (2/3 of his 4* LC selection is so sad tho), love that fucker hope he gets to do proper mayhem in story too. cool death talk please dont actually die yourself for real for real tho i will be sad. like i do think its based of aventurine to pull off a stunt that appears to be what we in the business might call a certified chapter 5 komaeda moment but. ahahaha nooo dont actually die youre such a funny hat man .

(also sick boss form is sick but . bootleg FL im sorry aventurine. they hit perfection already and theyre never fucking topping the galaxy cape cyclops eye beak mask drip i swear JSWJWJDKWJKDWJK but also yes me biased? in favor of that ginger? i could never)

but it seems ill have a solid time getting aventurine and saving up for now??? since i dont think im too interested in robin or boothill either. i was kinda worried topaz' rerun would be in 2.1 for IPC antics with aventurine bc i am kinda curious abt pulling for her but now its gonna be 2.2 at the earliest so. Phew

the stream ran a bit too long lmao but like overall i tend to like the dev discussions so most of it was still neat, altho downside of dev streams is that not knowing chinese i cant just like. afk and listen on headphones and go get water or something 💀💀 and they were definitely dragging stuff out on purpose no way they werent but eh. people will live its just bideo game livestream. and like these folks do hard work on the game they can yap about what they do sometimes its only right lmao

leakers public shaming session was definitely a jumpscare but i do genuinely empathize w shaoji on that one. like. ive always been one for kit + banner leaks first and foremost and story leaks just. i dont care for them much. ive had my share of looking at them occasionally but i definitely agree with the way story leaks either by themselves or when misconstrued and misinterpreted really fucking mess with the intended experience for any given story and how that must feel like shit for the writers. like if story leaks stopped happening altogether id be perfectly content. and thats just ppl who look at story leaks on purpose cuz. im not going to even begin w how like. yes the leaks subreddits and most big leakers do spoiler warnings and keep the story stuff spoilered. but then theres literally the entire rest of the internet where shit gets spread untagged and without warnings the second they are posted anywhere at all and how that fucking ruins peoples experiences. like its 1 thing to click at a spoiler tagged post knowingly and get ur experience messed up with. but when u dont even want to see it its rly fucking bad and i v well understand condemning all story leaks (even those properly flagged) just on that basis alone. but yeah actually felt bad for him there and see where he was coming from for sure, even as a consumer of leaks

ok well that sure was a wall of text. didnt expect to write that much JWJKWJKDDWJK but ya

Anyway. biggest priority is holding strong w skipping acheron as sick as her animations are but def looking forward to her teaser and the animated short. like . even with the black swan dykery. (that was a fucking jumpscare too). i dont need her rn. despite how cool she is 😭😭

& also have to say im v happy they clarified their stance on hi3rd references like. the way theyre going abt it is absolutely how it should be going. hsr by nature is more directly linked to hi3rd like honkai is in the name but its such a dumbass idea (like some fan takes out there....) to want the stories of hsr depend on another games lore. rewarding old fans with easter eggs and tidbits is perfectly fine and im even interested in seeing where they go with acherons obvious raiden situation - especially knowing theyre not about to ruin their own story with "it was hi3rd all along!" (not that i ever rly thought theyd seriously blunder that bad lmao 💀) . so yea thats neat

i think story wise im not gonna say much of my thoughts bc unfortunately i have clicked on like. a leak or four. not the major stuff i dont think but enough that commenting on stuff w some of the things im aware of in the periphery is going to tint stuff . but im still excited to see where things go!!!

AAND OH. ACTUALLY i do have one more thing . so the multiple POV thing being actually implemented is SOOOO good im so fucking happy theyre committing to it being a thing 😭😭😭 like SO many story pitfalls can be avoided by just letting it be that TB doesnt need to be fucking everywhere a major thing happens as the centerpiece of events so we as players can see it. like it gives a way of showing different events and sides of characters in a much more natural manner its sooo good that theyre implementing it already. like this alone has me in such high hopes for the story going forward. like yea theyve branched from our POV before already and in penacony as well but expanding on it even more is 100% the correct way forward

last thing: god they did jingliu so dirty in her concert illustration. WHAT is she wearing 💀💀💀anyway yeah lesgo 2.1 its cool

i lied real last thing: siobhan . siobhan i would do anything---

#i have no clue who to get from the 4* selector also. my hanya is e4 now so no need to get that. yukong e6? but i havent rly built her at all #ig i could still get her but w the way i have sparkle and ruan mei and bronya and the 4* harmonies built already its. ehh #gallagher is the new unit so i might just get him for collection purposes but i dont think ill rly have much use for him #guinaifen eidolons??? shes e2 now and e4 is the good one for energy so it could be a step on the way #ill need to build her for burn dmg for kafka against fire + lightning weak eventually anyway. now shes just debuffer ult spam build #anyway. neat stream now i need to eat the stream was long and then i wrote this djjkdjkwdjkdjkdwkj #rambles #hsr #long post

[artyasumi]

For those who dont follow my main uhhhhh afk theres a lil gas leak

[moyonote]

since alsa and soren had been announced by lilith games as next (possible) playable characters, here are the models that i extracted from the game files! unfortunately they don't have prefabs (or animators in another term) so i'm not able to extract them with rigs until they're officially released... 😭

also... there are few new/unused characters that i found within the game files! (total of 10 wow!!) i'll make renders for them sometimes today after i wake up! here they are!

all model assets belong to lilith games. i do not claim ownership over them, i just like finding things from game files. you are freely allowed to repost these images!

[fagbearentertainment]

They're also relatively new characters! The dads are called Eugene and Gavus, and the kids are named Lucilla and Liberta (who are also twins). They come from AFK Arena.

Basically their deal is that Eugene and Gavus are from opposing sides who get stuck together, they find the twins who were created to be bio-weapons to fight against the gods from ancient times, they instead steal the kids, forsake their own sides, and go start a family in the woods. They eventually got found and were locked up as traitors while the twins get separated and have their memories locked away. Until 10 years later the twins find eachother again and regain all their memories, and then they in turn go off to rescue their dads so they can be a family again.

You don't have to download the game though, there's a video from DangerGrey that goes into way more detail about the family and probably explains a lot better than me on youtube.

They also have a comic called "The Chains of The Covenant"! It's on INKR and it's free to read, it's still being updated at this moment though.

In the game itself: a few months ago only the kids were released, the dads were first mentioned via a diary one of them wrote and showed up in flashbacks in the War of Truth event. And then a month ago the dads' designs were leaked before being officially announced. They're in the game now, though they're called "friends" because it's a Chinese game so they gotta censor it, bleh. Doesn't mean their interactions aren't any less gay, they're still very much gay.

And I believe that’s all I want to say about them! tldr: I love this family very much and they've ruined my brain.

:0

Omg they sound so cool I love them

fucking pain of my cat rubbing face on my hand and making me press the button for going into a match in splatoon and then as soon as i entered the match i sneezed and had a fucking nose disaster and then my tissues fell down the crack between my desk and my bed and i kept having to go afk to get tissues and stop my nose from leaking and then i got kicked and now i cant play for 5 minutes :waynersob:
