Arius's mob is cute, but I don't care about Arius's lore that much. The whole abused and edgy child soldier past started to become ridiculous in a society run by teenage girls, like in Blue Archive. Hope Vol EX delivered more because both V5C2 and V6 have been disappointing so far.

Volume F had the benefit of a mysterious antagonist
Kuroko wouldn't speak to you and Phrenapates was a brick wall. Obviously things were going to work out, but all the vagueness along with the scale of the threat helped sell that it was a serious situation. Also spooky red sky is better than piss yellow sky

Well it's easy to forget in hindsight but the initial set up with Kuroko in vol F was that you weren't supposed to actually know that she was a different entity from OUR Shiroko. You only find out that they're not the same when you actually get to the ship in chapter 4.

Aris is possibly the highest damage student in the game and Kei is sHoshino
If you don't have both you aren't competing in blue
>>
>>556489980
Aris obliterates all blue single target content except for Set due to the fact that all her damage is considered EX damage.
Kei's buff to blue effectiveness is ridiculously strong and is dirt cheap. Though since her accumulation is only 10% of damage dealt inside the aura, she probably wont see use outside of blue content.
If you skip you brick.

Don't think that's a particularly commonly held view.
I know I liked V5C1 more than a lot of people, I thought it was on par with V3 if not superior if it wasn't for V3 being able to use cast members I already cared about. There were plenty of people on /bag/ who felt otherwise.
I've not felt like my love of C2 was far off the general sentiment, and I really liked C2.
Emotionally satisfying, pic related moved me to tears more than even VF.

Also delicious Nagusa ribs. Swimsuit alt better not be saddled with a fucking shit kit like her base was. Platinum mad.

You meant needing everyone to waste time on the entirety of VFC2.
And then it's revealed that the general citizen thought it was performative anyway.
And once you get the full picture, there was no threat in vol F at all, every single one of them were complete jobbers.

Yeah, the finale to c2 was genuinely beautiful. it was clear how Nagusa had already won before they even fought, she was just freeing Ayame.
And another tangent: I loved Sensei's role in it, too. He interactions with Shuro were great and didn't need any macguffin to sway her. He obviously knew something was up with Shadow Ayame, but also knew it wasn't his place to tell Kikyou or the rest what to do in this case.

Unironic better than the slop that's vol 6, which sounds like some whiny leftist thirdworlder cunt complained about privileges and first world countries, or the garbage yuribait that is V5C2.
If anything, EX's cast on both sides are more interesting than either the Hyakkaryouran and Nagusa "muh Ayame" or Subaru/Maia.

-1 gacha. Even though I wasn't really playing it, it feels good not telling myself "man I really should catch up.

Not BA, I've uninstalled ZZZ because it genuinely feels like the anti-BA. A game that had a very strong heart and vision...but instread of doggedly sticking with it even through a rough first year, it panic pivoted to pretty much "what everything else does" and soured me so bad

BA really is insane when I think about it. Not only did it have that shaky first year, the development of the game in the first place was unusually long, there was an incident of mass exodus and treachery, and a bunch of the devs now are practically brand new--and it still hasn't lost its shine.
Fuckin' weird

Aris is miles above all other blue in both damage output and convenience. The only remaining use for Waka is to cheese Yesod. The only remaining use for Kuroko is pvp and Set.

*standard armor caveat applies, obviously. If a boss does unavoidable damage that kills Aris you might still have to use those 2. Waka resists yellow and green, Kuroko resists red, those are mAris's weaknesses. (100%, 200%, 100% respectively)
Aris is squishy.

Yeah, I feel pity for Ayame but for now I think that's all they expect. It's Nagusa's story, and you're supposed to feel proud of her accomplishment.
it's clear that as of the summer event she's pretty much set, so c3 will likely shift elsewhere to Nature's Beauty. Honestly, Ayame likely doesn't need much either.

You ever met a ghetto hood nig or some third worlders in a shithole country who constantly complaint about white privileges or about "muh socioeconomic circumstances" yet still stuck where they started and kept the same toxic and degen culture alive because that's the only way of living she knew?

Suou is one of the few parts of v1c3 for me that I actually hate.

What's particularly annoying is that she was CLOSE to being amazing. It would've been so fucking simple

>that past is as a branch member of Nonomi's family
>She doesn't really care about it

>She is still a triple agent

>She has no grudge against Hoshino

>train cannon stuff still happens, but for different reasons + her mind control is more obvious

But that isn't the reality we live in. The reality we live in is "Suou is a big emotional retard"

Yup. New writers seem to be quite comfortable having redemption arcs / making students likable considering we've had Rio's and they even decided to address the elephant in the room with Saori AND bother touching on Nagisa, which they probably could have swept under the rug considering Trinity were the victims.
Doubt Ayame will take much effort once she decides to stop sleeping. More interested in Nature's Beauty. I like them as antagonists, hoping they don't get whitewashed too much.

She doesn't exactly do that, though. She is trying to change things.

There are some things she keeps, some things she changes.
I would say in her defense "she is correct: fuck the rest of society, it buried Arius in garbage and left it to rot". The matter is not "culture", the matter is "grudge".
It's a lot easier to say "just forgive and forget" when you haven't been a child soldier ever since you could hold a gun, constantly abused and manipulated by a truly evil bitch and knowing that everyone else has a better life than yours.

Anything with sufficient aoe damage that can threaten backline students (chockma missiles or geburah ATG) or attacks that are designed to fuck the entire team up (Peroro phase change laser)
Now the current raids that have that do have these do not really threaten anyone with green armor, but I could see them exploring that space once green becomes more normalized and we get more yellow/red damage raids that have some threatening aoe to them

I enjoyed V5. I'll never give people shit if they didn't though since I agree the arc just kinda throws you into an existing problem without the warmup period doing cute things with cute girls to establish the cast like some of the earlier volumes.

I don't mind arguing why I enjoyed it either though. Personally I didn't find Nagusa's relationship needed any more fleshing out - they were friends (or at least she thought they were) and was saddled with guilt over letting them down and being told that it was all fake anyway with her crippling lack of self confidence ontop of that.

Maybe I just found it more reletable than some, but I didn't really need that elaborated further.
Also found it mildly interesting to be thrown into an existing problem rather than the world only moving when Sensei was there.

Always love to see someone criticize the story and their criticism always boils down to them being morons and not understanding the story. No you dumb nigger Nagusa's entire motivation is not hinged on her relationship with Ayame. Nagusa's motivation is shrugging off responsibility of her position because she's insecure and uses Ayame as a means of escaping actually dealing with that fact. Her arc in vol 5 is coming to terms with herself and gaining self confidence. Her relationship with Ayame is entirely secondary to that.

>>556493678
That's utterly wrong. The whole idea behind Outer Heaven was meant to be a new way for soldiers to live as soldiers, not to be exploited by governments for shady purposes beyond what they signed up for like The Boss and him during Snake Eater. Of course, the original idea was him becoming just as bad as any other warlord and perpetual the system for the sake of the conflict itself.

You can only simulate so much locally if you have a cheat client and a private server.

His speech specifies "this is our only home" etc and he made a point of picking up orphans and had an extremely large reputation for taking in anybody who needed a place. He also specifically felt like he couldn't go back to America, and the idea of soldiers being unable to fit in society is a constant theme throughout the series.
The inciting incident was government meddling, but Outer Heaven started as MSF: military without borders. They would still work for governments, just as an independent outfit. The point was solely that they would have a place that they felt comfortable in
Basically, I dunno what you're talking about but that's why there's a shit ton of events in PW and MGSV which are just home or slice of life type activities, also

Which was already resolved in V5C1, which is a good chapter. That's the whole point behind her "cosplayer" schtick. V5C2 is entirely about her and Ayame's relationship and her inferiority complex, and she tried to step out of Ayame's shadow.

Ayame is Hina if she didn't have any good support system, not even an Ako or Iori. The problem is that if that's the case, it just painted the Hyakkaryouran cast as ignorant "friends" to their supposed leader, just like Nagusa.

People complained about it so they dropped it. It was improving (honestly) and it was actually pretty interesting in quite a lot of implementations, but because they kept getting complaints they took it out
and replaced it with hallways and constant battles. Just, more and more combat when the combat is not depthful enough to warrant doing it so often and so repetitively. The replacement has essentially no atmosphere or uniqueness, braindead puzzles, and a lotta busywork "go run to X place and press a button" shit. It doesn't go by quick, feels like a slog, and is draining
and for some reason they added a huge minimap to the game that you can't disable, despite the maps in the game being extremely easy to navigate (again: due to complaints)
It's a game with no rigor in the dev team

I didn't like how they completely sidelined Midomo who was already somewhat sidelined by the second half of V5C1. I guess there's still some hope she'll get a spotlight in V5C3 since she's Kokuriko's niece(?). Also Ayame got bitched out too easily but maybe that was the point (as in, she was never stronger than Nagusa, Nagusa's defeatist mentality was just holding her back), we're gonna have to wait until V5C3. Other than that, I liked it.

Squad perpetuated as much--no, MORE hatred than Subaru. Subaru specifically hides the remaining Arius from dirty work and does such work herself, providing for them solely. Saori beat and berrated kids who got out of line (and this is why unlike Saori, Subaru is better liked between the two old school leaders)

The Squad only turned on Beatrice after Beatrice turned on them and they had nothing left. This was after gleefully committing huge terror attacks, or in Saori's case brutally assaulting an old comerade.

Nagusa probably wasn't stronger than Ayame back then, but she's definitely held back by her complete lack of self confidence.

Since you seem to be a genuine retard and absolutely incapable of actually paying attention to the story and so need to be spoonfed like a child I'll explain to you. Ayame's biggest issue is that she put on a false mask of confidence that because she's an incredibly competent person was good enough to fool everyone around her. Nobody knew she was suffering. The only one who had any kind of inkling to it was Nagusa herself who as discussed shrugged it off cause of her own issues. Nagusa and Ayame are both individual characters with issues that revolve entirely around introspection and dealing with their own shit. Their relationship is a byproduct of their respecting personal growth, not the point of it.

>The Squad only turned on Beatrice after Beatrice turned on them and they had nothing left
It's actually worse than that. Saori flipped on Beatrice because Saori (!) failed to uphold her part of the bargain for Hime's life. Granted I don't believe the evil red monster was ever gonna spare Hime, but it didn't even get to that point, so for all intents and purposes the Squad betrayed Beatrice only because they failed in their grand terrorist plot.

There's a difference between having a different opinion and being a retard who can't pick up on what the story is blatantly telling you. You are saying things that are OBJECTIVELY wrong.

Her self-confidence issue should already be done with by the end of V5C1. The problem is that V5C2 is entirely revolved around her and Ayame, and her perceived image of herself against Ayame again. It's both a retread of that shit from the C1, but also around this relationship's not fleshed out, and featuring an utterly boring character like Ayame.

That's the fucking problem, retard. The entire past of Nagusa and Ayame revolves around them alone and is completely divorced from the larger group that they were supposed to be a part of. Is the entire cast of Hyakkaryouran besides Nagusa so uninvolved and ignorant of Ayame's shit, which are entirely contrasts their supposed characters?

Yes. The entire point of Ayame's arc is that she hid everything that was wrong with her and everyone thought she was amazing. As far as Kikyou and Renge were concerned things were fine and they were probably doing their jobs.

Didn't Nagusa only find out because she followed Ayame around like a lost puppy and was there when Ayame decided she'd had enough and was fucking off to (fail) finding Kuzunoha?

Ayame is...Nagusa's friend, specifically?

She barely knew who Yukari was.
Ayame wasn't close with a lot of people.
I don't see that as a problem. It's just "different from usual". I don't need every group in the game to consist of 100% friends. Hyakkaryouran was even introduced as "odd"
Yukari is youngest and respects everyone, but is still quite fresh to everything.
Renge and Kikyou are childhood friends
Kikyou respects Nagusa a lot, and vice versa.
Nagusa and Ayame are "friends"

Actually Yukari doesn't give a shit about Ayame, Nagusa is her Ayame (that is to say, Nagusa is to her what Ayame was to Nagusa). You can see this clearly in V5C2 where just like Kikuyo she understands that something is wrong with the Ayame that suddenly showed back up but she doesn't want to take away Nagusa's happiness.

>Yes. The entire point of Ayame's arc is that she hid everything that was wrong with her and everyone thought she was amazing. As far as Kikyou and Renge were concerned things were fine and they were probably doing their jobs.
More like they completely ignored that part of the relationship within Hyakkaryouran and just entirely zeroing-in on Nagusa and Ayame. Someone with Kikyou's personality or Renge's should have noticed and we never got enough POV from them to justify Ayame putting on this amazing act of being so above everyone else.
>>556497402
Yukari, I can excuse being the first year recruit. Kikyou is the group tactician. She's close to Nagusa. Renge is one of the Captains. Both of them are high enough member and Hyakkaryouran isn't exactly a large organization on par with JTF or Prefects for them to not interact regularly with Ayame as the leader.

I assume Kasumi actually genuinely likes Ichika, because she doesn't immediately try to arrest her on sight (like prefects), and doesn't treat her like the boss (like her club).

IQDB works sometimes. Google's "Exact matches" tab has been finding some booru links lately, even when the main tab says it's too spicy, which surprised me. But I don't usually search for explicit imejis, so my info is incomplete.
As a last resort, I keep a three day grace period after which I bite the bullet and just save the picture directly from Twitter or Pixiv instead of a booru. If giving up on a booru, ascii2d and google can give proper sources after a day or two. And if they don't, I just assume it was AI and forget about it

Volume EX definitely lacks tension. Like you said, the antagonists being mysterious in Volume F until the end but posing what FEELS like a threat to everyone is what made things memorable.
EX on the other hand has everyone wisecracking and sensei offering to enroll the antagonists into an academy directly to their faces. There's just less seriousness going on so you don't feel the tension cutting through.

I don't mind lack of tension occassionally but I'll admit it's somewhat disappointing for Volume EX, considering they've advertised it and structured it almost 1:1 with Volume F. Can't just help but make comparisons because of that.

Kasumi wasnt helping Ichika in TTT she was playfully extorting her. Ichika only helped out under duress and her snapping to no longer letting Kasumi hold a figurative hostage over her was the climax of the event.
I do like how Kasumi is a schemer that can read other people instead of just a tard wrangler for the HSD, she's a decent foil to Ichika's desire to put up a cool front. But they should exist separate from one another as well.

Honestly knowing Kim's statements throughout the years, he just says whatever to please everyone. Which is fine, that's him doing his job properly as a manager who has to appease / justify BA to nexon's higher-ups constantly. But his statements shouldn't be read into too much IMO.
EX definitely is not Volume F-tier, just the fact that it involves only a small cast from millennium dealing with a self-contained incident, instead of a much wider cast of characters, should've inherently made that obvious.
>>
>>556502089
Oh yeah...
>>
>>556500018
i've done that same setup without macros.
only two out of the four waves require precision, and all you need is to memorize two spots where to aim and two timings when to cast the ex, as well as to stall everyone but hanako before the first wave to ensure all mobs aggro on her and converge. neither mob spawn spots nor their movement are random. so it's not really that much of a bs.

You'd think, but a lot of people (especially here) seem to think he has a lot of creative input when it comes to BA's story, when he never really did in the first place. Or that he even still is primarily focused on BA (he's not and hasn't been since 2023; corporate shuffled him away to a different project, only temporarily bringing him back in 2024 for a few months, before he gets re-assigned back to the different project)

All of that can be true (I think it mostly is personally) while still not contradicting the fact that Volume EX doesn't have a good or well defined conflict. At least so far.
Even Malkuth outright admits she has no idea why they're even fighting in the first place or why they're even going ahead with the whole Steel Continent thing.

both Volume F and Volume EX got their own dedicated PVs to hype them up.

Vol F is my 2nd favourite volume after 3 but it's basically impossible for me to make any direct comparisons until it's finished since what makes vol F work is the pay off at the end and I don't know where vol EX is going. Though I will say if we're just comparing the early and mid sections of the respective volumes I think vol EX is way better for the reasons you listed.

I know this is all jew shit but I'm no jew, and it reminds me of how Jesus is the avatar of god, but has free will, and could not be compelled to sacrifice himself. He instead had to go through with it willingly, and demonstrated doubts along the way--as Malkuth has been doing

Kei and Arisu shed the restraints of their origin before any of the current stuff even happened
Kei is just finding her justice and place in the world like Arisu has, which doesn't need any of this. Although being challenged by some morons foolishly tinkering with power of your legacy is a nice dramatic way to assert and strengthen her new beliefs
This big threat is functionally just a way to eventually give Kei a vagina

also far as I was able to tell (and personally, I don't actually see this as positive or negative toward either)
Volume F is (so *far*) about an hour shorter or more than what's out of volume Ex in terms of just scenario content.
I don't think a story being longer is better or worse than a shorter one, though it is more text for whatever that is worth. I would however say that volume F was probably more difficult to write than Ex has been (more characters to balance in F, and many more subplots)

I prefer the "traditional" style of PV. I like it and think it's cool, but I can understand if major loss of staff is what pushed them away from it.
I hope they don't make anime PVs over and over. Not because I don't like PV6--PV6 is honestly amazing, but they said it took ages to make. Let's not.
And while the stills look very good, they're not the best as "CGs" compared to actual CGs.

They talked about this in a previous Kim interview and the global 4th anniversary dev talk, but they basically said they saw the 6th PV as a "turning point" for PVs. Basically PVs from now on will be animated; they directly mentioned that 7th PV will be animated as well.

Guys, the whole point of the animated PV was to prove to themselves that they could still carry this project.
If any of you followed the animators, you would know they are well and beyond capable of doing traditional CGs, they actively chose not to.

well, I can only hope that if that's the case they've taken measures to try to make the process of making them either not time as time consuming or, if time must be consumed, they schedule it in a reasonable fashion.
We waited so fucking long for PV6 to actually get done.

>>556505684
That's kind of an eh for me.
Like sure I get what you mean but PV4 spoils almost everything in Volume F.
Kaiten V peroro, Sakurako's silly outfit, the groups for every boss, going into space, Phrenapates existing, Kuroko getting saved, fuck even Plana is in PV4.

They genuinely showed about as much in PV6 as they did PV4. The one thing I'd say is that because PV6 is a much simpler story, there is very little that would be valid as a fakeout. The closest would be the shots of the 3 decalolis doing things on their own, which went unexplained until you actually read the story. Right now, the only gaps for us are "Is there more beyond Malkuth?" and "How will this end?"
But for PV4, we didn't even know who Kuroko was, who Phrenapates was, or wtf was happening. So, although they showed a bunch of fucking spoilers, the lack of understanding made even seeing Kuroko looking up at the sky (literally spoiling the ending) not actually a spoiler.

PV6 is really just "hype moments" and they've kept the "heart" out of it. The relationship of the deca sisters, Kei stuff, and whatever will happen in the end are all absent from the PV

I'd say the difference is PV4 is so convoluted that it gives away absolutely nothing about the story so while saying "it technically spoils things" is true in concept but in practice nothing was really ruined since it's so disjointed but PV6 you can very easily get a clear idea of exactly how things develop to get to that point.

>>556503138
technically it's still true even there. except on insane and below the type of the spawned mob is partially randomized. but on torment it isn't.
it's possible that the inconsistencies in death timings of the mobs might cause your team to shuffle around, which in turn will alter the movements of the enemies, and the error will compound with every wave until your position is reset on entry into the core room.

I'm not an animator or artist, but I work in games/production with animators and artists and I would basically say that "you'd think they're the same, but they're not, and that's why they're different jobs".
Eh, something like...
A "proper CG" takes a lot of time, an animation frame will take less time because it generally asks for less detail. It's meant to be seen in motion so detail isn't as crucial. The issue comes down to making a lot of images. That said PV6 is sakuga, basically meaning every frame's a key frame (detailed or clean or whatever) so of course that'd take time...

But really, really, I'd say the biggest problem is likely that while animators are pretty used to adapting to a style and cranking out many frames, cranking out a LOAD of CGs is fucking wretched work, especially if you don't have fellow artists capable of matching the chosen style well. The detail will always be much more than an animation frame, and that means it could take upwards of a month or two if it's particularly elaborate. In my own experience, I've only found like 2 or 3 artists who can crank out incredible pieces in a few days as opposed to a few weeks.
>>
>>556506209
PV4 is confusing enough and abstract enough that it doesn't really spoil anything, it also came out extremely close to F itself. Everything that is shown is so disjointed that you can't get a feel for it, even when you're playing whether you had watched it or not didn't really impact the experience, it was a puzzle if anything. Meanwhile you have certain scenes in EX that feel weird as if you weren't meant to watch the PV6 first, like the scene about Yuzu where the reason for her suit is a surprise, except we already know very well the reason almost an entire year back.

Well I can't speak for them of course, I can only speculate.
First, you did have a lot of devs before the exodus, and also there were several straight up veterans on the team and that likely contributed a lot. Many of those people left.
While they did get new blood, new blood is new blood. Got to get used to the new work flow and a bunch of other stuff.
And I don't even know how many people they've gotten who can truly fill the shoes of industry veterans. Basically, my best guess would be something like...
It's a live service game, they NEEDED a PV
They hired new people, but they couldn't be sure that the new people could meet the standard to the timeframe needed to actually put a PV together.
This would explain why they outsourced PV6 (they did, right? or at least I saw a bunch of seemingly indie animators saying "Hey, I was an animator on the project)
They needed to get something together, and while outsourcing for CGs is fine if you need one or two event stills, it's not fine for something like BA's old PVs which ask for LOADS. The cost would be a lot, and the artists not being in-house would cost a lot.
How about anime? That's...just my guess as to the thought process.

That's just a silly excuse. It's perfectly feasible to create a general idea of the Kivotos map for the writers to work with. BA either intentionally dismiss consistency for more freedom in storytelling, or that the writers are equally retarded in world building.

PV6 was almost entirely outsourced, yes. None of those animators were in-house over at Nexon.
Guess that probably explains it, time constraints + still not able to find exact replacements.
>>
>>556506539
what are you talking about, the guide mission?

Well for one thing keep in mind it'll eventually become permanent so nothing is really time gated. After the first run, quite a while later it will be put in the guide mission menu and can be accessed and completed whenever--same rewards iirc

Kind a? It's from Yostar's inhouse studio. I'm not sure about their collaboration but most of BA's PVs is from them. And some others games that they published as well like AK, AL,

Devs seems comfortable enough with this so unless something happens, this might not change.

Depends what you mean by schizos.
Feels like there are more schizos in /bag/ trying to shit the threads up but the thread quality is still somehow higher than the other places that have willingly swallowed so much of it that they shit the place up without outside help.
As much as /bag/ infuriates me picking at bait sometimes, it still manages to know what it is.
