>>500476943Nope.
>>500476625>scrubbed from existence in GGZ>doesn't even have a battlesuit in this gamewhy do Honkai devs hate Sin Mal?
The term rare being used for purple beasts is throwing me out, rare should be blue.

Seeing someone in chat with the username "gallaghersboytoy". I had no idea that other gay men played HI3. What's the appeal, considering every playable character is a woman? I mean I guess there are male characters that get a lot of screentime in the story, but is that really enough?
>>500478108>Seeing someone in chat with the username "gallaghersboytoy". I had no idea that other gay men played HI3it's either a troll or an actual HSR secondary foid from twitter. We are essentially being replaced as a fanbase, and it's also happening on the CN server. Turns out the core fanbase schizo has some merit to what he was saying. Mihoyo for the longest time is forcing us to conform with the standards and sensibilities of the new people they've attracted from the G game.
why is she looking at me like that?
>>500478616Oh, that's good news then.
>>500478616I am new to hi3 and I prefer it over HSR desuthe amount of faggotry I see in peoples names is very similar to HSR though
>>500479141Wait until you decide to lurk Room 1 for a bit
>>500479071die >>500479141yeah. Overall it's just bad news for this game because you just know they're going to pussify Part 2 even more to cater to these people. Subculture pedestrians are the worst and I am not pleased that Mihoyo has made these people their prime demographic target for the past 2 years
>>500473317double quanta bombs
>>500478108hi3 players like to watch
>>500477369abused Seele the best character
>>500479141>the amount of faggotry I see in peoples names is very similar to HSR thoughall I remember with room 1 is valk sexposting and nigger shitposting. Did it really become that gay?
>>500477369she looks flat enough to wife
>>500478108There is a fair amount of people that want males added and some of them are now hsr new players.In story males are usualy op and defeat females with ez so maybe that is the appeal
>>500480191I haven't opened the chat, I imagine it's pretty bad though
>>500480301There is a Kevin shonen fag that spams about how op Kevin is all the time lol
>>500478108Dismiss the other guy. Do you know how many gay men love female pop singers? Now apply that mentality to HI3. I asked one of them about it out of curiosity and he told me he just liked feminine stuff. Even as a kid he also liked collecting dolls. It had nothing to do with HSR or being a troll.
>>500480442kek I wonder if thats some teenager
>>500480301if room 1's kulchur changed that radically in a span of a year, then most veterans really did drop the game after the part 2 premiere>>500480454>Dismiss the other guy.nigger this amount of faggotry is unheard of even if we compare the "fanbase" just last year. There IS a fanbase replacement going on. Stop denying it
>>500478616I don't understand why these people would migrate The game is both older and more technical to learnAnd if those people just do the story and never pay then no surprise the revenue is in the dumpster
>>500478995You are cute
>Noooo my hugbox was discovered nooo I'm like literally getting replaced or somethingSome people really need to go outside
>>500480818but im a 36 year old oji-san and my hair is starting to grey on the edges of my head haha...
who are you quoting?
>>500480558most people in Room 1 are teenagers. Then at certain times, you can meet a few lolifags, like loli feet. They openly talk about their age and discord drama. Most adults don't have enough free time to spend the entire day chatting in HI3. That anon is acting like HI3 suddenly has a bunch of gay men when it's just the same old people. For some reason, they also like creating alt accounts for the heck of it. t. I'm not in their discord, but I've talked with a few of them
>>500481119naruhodo... makes a lot of sense like that
>>500481172Yeah. There are just like 2-3 gay/bi twinks and a few horny girls. Room 1 in the past had more degenerates dropping by, but they left during the end of Part 1. Now you usually just see lolifags baiting normalfags by writing coom stuff. The teens usually just stick with ERP or being racist to trigger someone. IMO Room 1 has become more chill than in the past if anything, but this also means there aren't as many funny comments.
>>500482887Lmao wtf i was there i saw this in chat live
>>500478108say what you want about those jobbers but hi3 men are better written than hsr men
>>500481026But are you getting bald? Just having gray hair is a charm.
>>500481026Dawei...
New battlesuit when?
>>500483691nope. still have a full head of hair. my dad's hair is thinning but he's like 72 so i think im good
>>500485209How about a loli dudu battlesuit?
Eden halloween costume?

Lore summary about Mars? It's on a loop too?
>>500501076it's the matrix and the admin is looking for girl
>>500501076Is kind of gay.
>>500501076Mars used to have a civilization, the Mars puter is so far the only trace of it left that we can study, however a "Goddess" is the admin of the system, and has an entity shaped after herself(Entropy) endure trials and tribulations to find instances of Sena in the system, as for why, we just don't know yet

>>500501076It's all a computer simulation/dream. Troonseeker's player 2 colorscheme is the admin. Nothing is real and I'm not sure why we are really bothering to begin with.
>>500503395To save kianers.

>>500503809>>500503685The problem is unless we do a timeskip past apho2 we know anything that involves kiana is pointless, since we already know the result.
>>500501076all of hi3's stories are just about someone's girlfriend dying
>>500503927I'm almost certain we will due to hsr concepts being introduced (and because it's just retarded to have part 2 set before it why would they do that)
>>500503927you don't know if she's still asleep or is preoccupied with something
>>500504051That's my life story too but only a figurative death
>>500504061true actually why the FUCK did they make mars arc before apho

Gaoo~
>>500503927We dont know wtf is going on in apho with Kianners anything else is just headcanon
>>500503927Also im not gonna lie im invested what will happen to troonseeker and Sena
get these faggots off my screen
>>500506086You just know.
>>500506465They straight up tell you it is going to happen

>>500506697What did they mean by this?
>>500507289see>>500507040
>>500506086Helia is so unpopular, they have increased her yuribait with Coralie lately. Feels like a band-aid solution to solve her lack of relevance, but she's still boring af. Sometimes I wish she'd get killed or booted out of the martian PC, but killing a side character would be the same as the writers admitting they made a mistake, so that's never gonna happen.
>>500506086lmfao this is so forced
>>500507289Comfortable pillow may also mean Bronya's legs.

>>500507874or her breasts!
>>500507690Do you really think they weren't always planning to pair them up
>>500507690To me it just feels like they booted of some writers that wasnt into character building and yuri baiting so now they are allowed more freedom and this is just the prodcut of cutting out most of the yapping that i think the kicked out writer was resposible for
Finding fossils and making them into slave monsters reminds me of Pokemon.
>>500508703this but palworld
>>500508104I always thought they have a good cop-bad cop relationship going on, not in a romantic kind of way.

>>500510550>>500510606>>500510631All me.
>>500511719WAKE UP
>>500512101>All meAwww* me
>>500498409>AI put Captain conscioussnes in chibi AI while he sleep in his world>tell him he need to work with Vita and Sparkle to stop another masked fool from taking over the Mars simulation>the fool made an illusion / dream of areas from star rail and use Hi3 character as the NPC, Sparkle shoot Captain in the head to bring him thereThe confusing part is that Captain think it's still inside the game like the old AI event but the others 3 are clearly hiding from him that it's real. Where are they going with that?All of this is probably going to be irrelevent after the collab anyway.
>>500512538Well they fact that they had a perfect ending for captain shit but they are bringing him back means they will do something with it.I hate it here
>>500513118AI-chang Captain is not Captainverse Captain.
>>500513203im assuming its the Salvation log captain
>>500513203It's amazing that they're somehow making that shit more of a convoluted mess
>>500513289Yeah, it's the Captain that play the game made by AI which is based on Hi3 main story.Also that Captain is a Vita fan.
>>500513401>taking event shit seriously>being autistic about muh event canon
>>500513485I'm not super bothered by it but they did bring it into the main story at the end of part 1
>>500513698Go back to sleep Kianners.
>>500513581At this point i wouldn't be surprised if they do it again because of Vita and AI.
>>500507690>increasedAnon they started off as old bickering wives who are actually totally tight together
>>500513748I welcome it at this point. Event writing is better than story writing at this point so hopefully shit bleeds over.
>>500514186>griseo getting used>vita part long
>>500514278I don't believe you
>>500514186>bronya game eventShe finally did it!
>>500514409Even the part 2 events have been better than the part 2 story. Stuff like the cafe was pretty good.
>>500514186>griseo getting used
This is the first time I can't fully clear an end game event in a year+ and I couldn't care less.
the fuck is an endgame event
>>500514467disagree ever since the rite of tears the story has been pretty good
>>500514747This
>>500514449Early Access for 10 years soon!
I think what screwed them from the start was the inane decision to set the entire story in a simulation. It was already hard enough to care about things going on in Elysian Realm because you knew everyone in it are dead anyway, and that one had better excuses for why it was that way. Being a simulation in a 'puter immediately deflates any and all stakes and they should've gone with like, anything different, like make it about a hollow Mars or something, instead of desperately trying to now scramble for any anchor to things people might actually care about like, oh, it's actually about saving Kianners (but they need to establish how it matters fast), or oh, it's actually about Homur... uh, Leylah trying to unfuck Sena (but for that there's too much fucking about with rather boring side characters and not enough focus), I don't think "Story #2" in service games can ever afford to be unfocused and long because playerbase is already invested in other things and won't stick around for a new long setup that's completely different. I don't think any long-lasting serial in history of media ever survived a major cast/setting shakeup for long and it's very conceited to think this game of all things could pull it off.
>>500515640well, yeah alright but just riddle me this. Why was GGZ's soft reboot successful while ours wasn't? Maybe there's something about the GGZ's team that's now absent in the current HI3 team. Gee I wonder why.
Happy Halloweeneele!
the Hagnya
>>500515861I'd tell you if the game was still available on global instead of being shutdown like a success it is
>>500515861i was looking into it a bit and it actually looks really interestingis it worth reading that games story or nah
>>500516817Blue gimp homu is clearly the best starter.
>>500516806Part 2 won't get better with that attitude
>>500516883there's one person here who plays it and it's not that dude
>>500516895Better learn how to register on the CN server before it's too late, Sporkle
>>500516883The overall plot is good but the actual writing is pretty poor at times so maybe if you happen to have a lot of free time>>500515861GGZ part 2 at least kept Kyuushou around
>>500517475i feel like hi3 is like that a lot of the time so i don't really mind as long as it's not too ass to even follow
>>500516887Easily replaceable unlike Holamander
>>500518230>x4 sneaky crystal weakness
>>500518460blue homu is literally not even up for consideration in that environment
>>500518708It was back in salt/snow OU, which was the last good generation.
>>500518895it was only ever good in pri/arm powered duo
>>500517475hag Kyuushou is so hot in her tacticool bodysuit gear. femseeker should have wore one instead of whatever they were trying to do with her design
