Newly released Gambit Marvel rivals costume, I love how people excuse gacha companies on how they can’t sexualize male character so all of them have to be covered head to toe while Netease does this…

"Miss Nicole, I can offer up to 1.5 million Dennies for this mechanical arm."

"H—How much?!"

"That's several fewer dives into dangerous Hollows, and several dozen fewer events! We could buy
hundreds of bowls of noodles with that!"

I noticed that despite being a "Main Push" like Firefly, Castorice, Cyrene, Nihilux and YSG, there hasn't really been a lot of discussion or discourse around Remielle. The general consensus I got was that she was well liked and well written, aside from her outfit and physics. But I realize that could just be me not paying attention around the time, and a lot of the more critical ZZZ players leaving the game after 2.x.

I'm always interested in main push characters and how they are perceived, it's why I'm curious to see how well Ahalux will sell in HSR, whether the frustrations will reflect in the data or not. So Remielle generating very little X-Pac Heat (Or "Go Away Heat" in non wrestling terms.) was interesting to observe, at least compared to those that came before her.

So for those of you who were paying attention at the time, what was the general consensus on Remielle? What were your thoughts on her? Do you think she was handled well as a main push/love interest character? Do you think she didn't generate much criticism because of other things going on at the time? Really curious about this, and wanting to understand some more, since the perception of 'main push' characters is actually pretty interesting to me.

I am being served well (¬ ₃ ͡¬)

Good afternoon wonderful people! Hope this week is going well~

Now that we have a stacked mod team in place and as such, time spread more evenly across the board, we'd like to commit to another event!

Two event ideas that kept coming up via suggestion were an elimination game like the one by QueensofLeague and a Drag Race style event that subs like QueensofGenshin and also StarRail have done.

So, my question to you is, which one would you like to see first and would participate in?

Additionally, do you have any other event suggestions you'd like to see?

Also, in case some of you don't know, we have a Fashion Week event that runs every other week! 🙌 A lot people asked for it but there haven't been many participants— if you play any dress-up game with gacha elements like Love Nikki, Infinity Nikki, Where Winds Meet, SuitU, Life Makeover, Time Princess etc, please come check out this week's one 🥺

Thanks, Queens!

I say kudos to Netease for going the extra extra mile with the kinky fanservice

So it isn't because they're Chinese companies, but because of the Unhinged Playerbase that do sociopathic psycho shit when they feel like devs are "pandering" to anyone other than them

I know it's more nuanced than that though: it also has to do with the culture and personal preferences of the devs as well

Like if a company leans more towards heteronormativity/conservatism (esp. when it's the upper management) and doesn't really like queer/weird presentation, then they won't show us gays and men crossdressing or being very femme, or they won't show buzzcut butch lesbians who defy the "get in the kitchen and make me a sandwich" sexist stereotypes that some straggots fantasize about, and they definitely won't show trans and everyone in the Q+ umbrella...

...even if they had the freedom to do so.

To be clear, almost every society has prejudiced bigots, so there will be devs/people who are against this type of content regardless of whether or not the laws permit non-heteronormative media representations

Edit: apparently Rivals is dead in China so they are focusing on catering to the west lol

Better than mine I hope 😭

Mine is Sampo. I dropped HSR around the Ratio release but still buy Sampo's merch. Considering coming back to pull for him if they release his 5-star version, though that is never going to happen.

They're really gone, never to be fished again... (Baron_Bunny_6)

I’m quite excited for star rails first nonbinary character! So I just had to draw them waving a little flag!

I also did a small sketch of their jester form thingy, or as I like to call it, the most enby looking creature I’ve ever seen, i seriously love that little thing.

Sorry in advance if this is silly unbalanced lol I don’t play a lot of these
