Why did you quit Honkai Star Rail?

Why did you quit Honkai Star Rail?

i didn't. its the only game with Madam Herta after all

Any good ecchi anime like picrel worth watching?

Never started

kiss x sis

Why can't we get this in the game?

I miss the Stellaron Hunters.

4 dudes in a row, corridor simulator, intense powercreep, and desperately tries to keep you around with "QoL" features and lots of extra free pulls/energy refills. The only good part is the last one, but Star Rail went too far in that direction. Genshin could learn a few things from Star Rail, but Star Rail overall has fundamentally failed as far as I am concerned.

10 hours of story nonsense yapping every patch eventually gets tiring. And also corridors.

Chinkslop and greekslop.

Chinks don't understand that I don't care about their terrible story and just want to summon hot chicks.

Ladies versus Butlers!

Why do I prefer this over straight up porn

glad i could find another Machi enjoyer here. She's only getting lewder

Who is good now?

When in doubt, visit Prydwen.
prydwen.gg/star-rail/tier-list/
Any character worth using at max-level in 2.x content onwards is in Tier 3 or higher under the Memory of Chaos tab. Anyone lower is still good for general play, BUT will have serious problems in newer content simply because of all the unhinged powercreep of some units that the game's newer enemies are built around.

I didn't.
I will get strawberry Barbara

It's THE chinkslop game
Never touching it again

The story is too long winded now
The patch content stories, if you look on youtube, are like 6-8 hours long now. Thats an entire cour of anime or more. You make us watch all that shit but cant be bothered to properly animate facial expressions and character movements to go along with 8 hours of plotline

And if you're wondering why the word Partner is in red, basically, some characters are super-reliant on another unit to maximize their potential.

I fucking loved Herta Space Station, Belobog and Penacony but absolutely hate Amphoreus. I can't believe they thought it'd be a good idea to do 6+ patches in this shithole and go for a hard drama when they can't write anything but comedy. I'm bored to death. I'll dip after the Fate collab and hope the next planet isn't horrible

I didn't though?

Kafka still best girl

I haven't played since late Penacony.
There's no way it's worse than space China.

it's good, but that fucking china planet killed my hype for the game. Penacony was fine, but i was too tired from chinaland that i've dropped the game for good

Space China in 2.0 was a lot better than Amphoreus, unironically. I actually prefer Luofu 1.X to it, because at least it was fucking concise. Sushang, Huohuo, Gui, QQ alone have more personality than anything in fucking Amph.

I still can't fathom what they were thinking making the China area so hilariously boring.

Oh wow, cool, an false-sky airspace made up entirely of floating platforms and ships

Most areas are narrow corridors with boring walls/shipping containers

Ass-awful story beats

Most of the monsters aren't even cool-looking

According to Chinese official media pic related are the most influential games in China

Genshin is top 1

HSR is top 4

Wuthering Waves and ZZZ didn't make it

ahahahahahahahahahahahahah
So much Tencent shilling and their game is a fucking flop ahahahahhahha

The time gates in this game are fucking miserable, between leveling up a new character, leveling their traces, leveling a new light cone for them and God forbid farming acceptable relics, it can take more than a month just to build a single. Fucking. Character.

When i was at the early game and i was showered with rewards to refill the daily energy it was fun to grind and chase after things, after they dried up the game became a literal daily simulator. Miserable experience.

It always surprises me when i see the general hate for "space China" here. For me, it was the best area overall. Don't you guys are all weebs who like Japanese settings?

turn-based

unskippable cutscenes everywhere

don't care about any of the designs/characters

maybe the plot got good after the first ice planet but I don't give enough of a fuck to continue. honkai impact 3rd is still the only mihoyo game I care about, and even that is becoming enshittened by star rail/genshin influence over time. maybe I should just quit mihoyo shit for good.

Took a break and heard they were adding permanent bonus for rolling characters, so i decided this was a good stopping point

Have no reason to continue after the Fate collab and the end of Amphoreus. Game's done very little to impress me and shit goes on for far too long.

Thinking MHY shit is anime

You are the problem!

Honkai Star Rail?

The only thing I liked about it was the red head woman you get at the beginning. Her design and JP voice was great.

That ending was shite.

Sex

yurishit

fuck off

Honkaitards are the most mentally ill people I've ever seen on this board. Why would I start?

Firefly (my wife) was the last time I played. Going to dip back in for Fate then probably never play again.

The best ecchi of all time

ZZZ and Genshin get constant Anon Babble threads that last until bump limit

HSR gets a thread a month that dies before 100 posts

Why is that?

phainon and saber on the same patch will make so much money it's not even funny

I never played the game because anything named Honkey Star Rail sounds retarded.

Because the first two got the blacked tranny audience that spams Anon Babble while HSR apparently failed to do so

when's Saber?

We got an entire patch (usually lasts 6 weeks) left and the next one comes in a week. So 7 weeks at least.

What?

I never played it because it sounds like the same generic gookshit garbage as the billions of other.
Honkai Star Rail, what the fuck kinda name is that?

ching chong ping pong konichiwa konosuba origami I got gored to death by a rodeo bull and now I'm in a parallel universe where all women are my little sister and they all want to have sex with me?????????????????

Death to all of you.

Some time in June.

if you didn't play from day 1 you are so far behind that it would take an entire year or more to get going, the game is designed and balanced around the idea that you've been playing since launch so the content in the game now is fully tailored to those players, catch up mechanics aren't a thing, so unless you plan to whale you have none of the pieces you'd need to make viable teams AND you have to wait for those re-runs to happen while also missing out on valuable meta pulls that come out meaning you've missed out on a ton of stuff that would give your account some horizontal investment, i could go on but im sure you get the point, the game has a stamina system on top of this which means its going to take months to even get your characters leveled enough to actually complete any of the content, so if you decided to play honkai star rail right now, you are hard locked into daily stamina spending, and hoarding stellar jades to get the characters you absolutely need to do anything meaningful in the game, so i quit because im expected to spend thousands of dollars to catch up to the games current world and progression.

im actually playing it right now, some mission is autoing on my main screen lol
out of all the gacha slop, star rail is pretty good

too bad the YAPPING is so bad, i just did the event missions with the minigame, its like they took some cute minigame stolen from some phone game, then sat there and flooded it with the most padding possible , voiceless meaningless dialog and "plot" for what should have been just a fucking menu

this is why i stopped playing i think, just YAPPINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG FOR LITERALLY HOURRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
genshin is the same shit, i have to really force myself against every fiber of my being to finish a fucking main quest, its literally just SLOW TEXT DIALOG NO VOICES, SLOW SLOW SLOW YAP YAP YAP, FOR FUCKING 8 HOURS

you can't auto Anon Babble

permanent bonus for rolling characters

...Wut.

the problem is the chinese government has laws that prohibit extended play sessions, so they have to have a stamina bar to discourage endless grinding like in other games that compete with it ( black desert online is a good example here). so unless the law changes and suddenly hoyoverse wakes up and says "we actually care about player retention so we are removing the resin system" its just a lost cause to play an already established gacha game from hoyoverse. if you don't start on day 1 hoyoverse games are unplayable because the new player experience is non-existent and horrifyingly bad this is especially true for genshin where abyss is so inflated that its completely impossible for a new player to do anything in it

belobog: great, solid starting storyline and setup

herta space station: promising plot hooks and authentic gacha-defining sci-fi characters

luofu: floating liyue time capsule with a one dimensional character achetypes that tries to be deep with concepts abstract and far too alien to the original themes

penacony: great double dimensional characters and interesting conflict setup bogged down in later part by waifupanderind (Acheron, Firefly) that sticks out like a sore thumb

luofu: luofu but worse

Reminder every full arc takes like a year or so of development
I say Chinese entertainment is creatively bankrupt by needing to shove plain-in-the-face state-sponsored chinese culture every two patches.

She's going to a Boston anime convention soon too

but I'm doing my weekly DU RIGHT NOW?

Story and characters are garbage

ZZZ and Genshin get constant Anon Babble threads that last until bump limit

They don't. I see more BA Nikke GFL2 and even BD2 than I see ZZZ or Genshin.
ZZZ is still the only slightly popular hoyo game here.

zzz is fucking dead bro, people just post on v to shill their vg like a dying vg does

Castorice has a passive that works even when she's not in your current team.

They forced me to try and use a healer in the story and I hate grinding for the chance of getting decent artifacts. Also C6 Gepard. Fuck Star Rail, I'll take the older sibling instead.

...Oh.
Yeah, that's how you start the actual death spiral of a game.

Let's see what it does..

If this character is in your current lineup (such as in Trial) or you own her, the first time a character would fall in battle, they instead enter a secondary state where they get 1 more turn, if they heal or gain a shield before their turn ends, they live, otherwise die at end of turn

Okay, that's not too bad, given if one of your characters is dying, you likely weren't going to win anyway, but conceptually, that is very, very bad for the game's longevity.

zzz is fucking dead bro

still the only popular hoyo game here even if everyone migrated to the other site with Baggers and Nikkers
genshin and HSR generals are anything but alive, zero discussion just bots spam and three SEApags with a pass samefagging

ah that's a shame, won't be able to make it. Hopefully I'll get the chance to meet her some other time. She sounds really sweet

It's nice if you're doing sustainless teams, since in those comps, it's pretty conceivable for one character to get downed and this just makes it a little less RNG.

I just got sentenced to exile in purgatory and have to travel through hell in FGO.
What's Honkai Starrail like and how has been the collab so far?

collab don't start for another 7 weeks

got silver wolf c6 as a joke on her rerun

they announce she is getting buffed

lol

oh... so what is Honkai Starrail like gameplaywise and plotwise?
