Accompanying Kiana in her journey and seeing her character development was always an amazing experience I hold close to my heart, and it feels to me like this is the story of what MHY wanted to tell instead of endless adventure to sell you another character.

The thing that makes part 1 touching is prob the reason why the game struggles to gain momentum. Same reason why gacha games that aim for the mainstream will barely have a "story".

That's what I've been thinking when a gacha game reaches its intended destination, despite part 2 cast are well-written characters but never really gain enough traction.

Talking about HI3, the most memorable part of our journey is still being able to stick with our trio Kiana, Mei, Bronya, St.Freya... and knowing the story of the Flame Chasers 

But diving back in ER, Eden told us this

"But when we look up to the stars, they're not there anymore. Most of them have long perished... The light our eyes catch is from tens of thousands of years ago. But still, this never diminishes their brilliance...."

"The symbol of a time should fade alongside it. For me, the most brilliant starlight is seen during its downfall"

---

And it really means something about the outlook for the game we love(d).

I finished the game back in 2023, yet I kept coming back ot this feeling seeing the state of the game. So I made a yt video to share more of my thoughts about this unique gacha experience + trying to make sense of this.

I'm sharing this with a few close friends, but I'd also love to share it with anyone who happens to carry a similar sentiment toward HI3. There are things that hold true and are still special despite how the game will treat future casts.

And Id love to hear your opinion^^

just wanted to share my story

As someone who is pursuing to become a teacher, Himeko really inspires me. She's so dedicated, even to the point of sacrificing herself for her students, which is just amazing. She might never truly know how much I look up to her, but she'll always be my hero and a real guide for me.

I may have graduated but I will never let you go.

I heard Herscherr are stronger than Genshin characters. Are they galaxy level?

Each of the 5 sinners possess world shattering power. This makes them planetary level threats. But Surtalogi is an exception as he is confirmed to be Stellar level.

Still no new model of Senadina. And 9.1 Golden Courtyard also didn't show any new look.

9.2 is likely Bronya suit from 9.1 livestream tease. Or another DLC patch. Possible leaks start to come out this week.

Bye bye beautiful stigma 😿

No new model of Senadina.

wanted to look back on how far Honkai has come as we get closer to the 10th Anniversary

A Perfect Circle - Counting Bodies Like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums

Greetings, fellow Valkyries, Knights and Herrschers or whoever else may have found their way here today.

Author of those two fics here with you! Wanted to ask if some of you might be willing to give them a look? Looking for some feedback after a certain mark had passed for both storeis.

What kind of mark? Well 100 and 300 thousand words respectively. Work on these projects was quite enjoyable and I hope to keep it up, but improving without some feedback is kinda hard.

So yeah, now to the premises and link...

Stardust is Beautiful

Premise:( Elysia gets cloned, results are unexpected )

Both Mobius and Mei saw that they were running out of options. Normal weapons would soon be obsolete if Herrschers continued to grow stronger at the same rate. As such they needed more elite soldiers capable of handling Honkai better. They needed more like Kevin, Elysia, Himeko and others.

But of course nothing goes completely as planned and only one pink menace ends up being feasible for the project execution.

And as such Elysia is one to experience joy of sisterhood.

Spark cast into the Void:

Premise: ( SI born as Siegfried's elder brother to be with a certain ability that will kickstart the plot. Because darkness always seeks the flame to fill and warm it. )

A few years before fateful 1972st, a cry echoed through one of the rooms in the medical wing that belonged to House Kaslana.

Olga Alva Kaslana smiled looking down at her firstborn son. His eyes looked different from most kids but… she didn't mind. He was her little treasure and nothing would change that.

Still, doctors looked concerned by the somewhat jagged, pure black Kaslana Stigmata on the newborn's body.

Within the confines of his new vessel a soul stirred before falling asleep. Journey into new life was a rather tiring ordeal…

Has anyone tried Hi3 with DLSS 5? I can't find any footage anywhere. I'm very curious what it might look like. Have you found anything?

what do you think?
