It has been a million years, hey

One more thing to add, the Arcadia Record game is coming out tomorrow apparently Indeed, I have found the game on Google Play as an international release. However, it has not been translated to English, so I guess anyone who wants to play it will have to bear with the original language for a time (unless thus game will get EoS-ed until then - nobody really expects Arcadia Record to survive very long) Oh, and this dropped about 40 minutes ago. Why does the art style of the animation look so familiar to me? I feel like I've seen it somewhere else

Time for the news roundup. I have missed quite a bit last week, so I will have to catch up with the news and post them here. In terms of what has happened and what will happen in the following weeks, I really do not know if I should be angry or just disappointed... For a full breakdown of the upcoming things for JP, I recommend checking this out. Most of the stuff will also come to Global in no more than a month after the JP release, i can bet that https://gamepress.gg/lostword/other/jp-july-26th-dev-stream-recap News and updates Most recent maintenance gave us a few things: - 5 prayers every day until the 1st of August, I think (5 x 8 days) - I do remember when these free daily prayers campaigns used to give you 10 free prayers, not just 5 - SA Koishi retro unit added - x2 reward errands (this one is actually neat) for a few days - Forever Prayer Part 2 - the EoSD Patchouli banner (ironically, I got A6 Reimu, Sakuya and Cirno out of it, and wonder if I should push a bit more for Marisa too) - we finally got, after a 4 days break, the last stages of the current Princess Joon the Chivalrous Phantom Thief event (I guess they ended up lagging behind with the translations, just like with everything that is not a SFes/EFes/RFes unit, because there they will just speedrun it to the speed of light into Global) - RFes Remilia festival ongoing JP is getting a new unit. This time, it is Megumu. At least it is something new, and not just an alt... Update from the post: MoF Suwako has been released together with Sanae and Kanako (wait, didn't I mention these last time?) Now into actually new content. This is what we are going to get following the maintenance on August 1st. I am not sure if some of these are for the whole month or will all come at the same time, but here they are: - SFES Meiling from the Hifuu universe - Kourindou Roulette is back - Akyuu and Kosuzu are receiving their Fantasy Rebirth outfits (finally) - little Yuyuko is getting a banner rerun - 72H Starter Festival Part 1 and 2 - +3 daily quests and the x3 drop rates for main story and Hifuu continue - finally getting the Extra stages for the Joon event For JP, the next units to get Fantasy Rebirth are the Watatsuki sisters (and apparently, I have heard an announcement for Satori as well) Now to get into the bullshittery though. If this is true, it seems like JP will get more EFes units (and knowing the pace, one month later getting into Global). And these are not any special kinds of units. They are beach episode alts. These could very much be costumes (and really wished it was as such), but the post puts it as they are individual units, or should have been costumes. I was a little bit concerned and pretty much though the beach episode will come eventually, but now here it is, confirmed by a few screenshots. I do not hate the idea of summer outfits, but I am disappointed it will be as Epic units if the whole thing is true, therefore units you cannot spark/use pity for. Otherwise, looks like Touhou LW wants to pull a Fate Grand Order. The teaser for what is going to come And the actual discussion on it It is funny, because this announcement came just a few days after DanKagu also decided to release their own summer stuff, even if just in terms of cards (not gonna like, both Kasen and Tenshi look cute here) Along with these announced EFes units, JP is also getting their next Relic Fes unit. This time it is Alice Margatroid, as depicted in Sporadically Margaret: Community discussions and memes Not so much in terms of discussions this week, so here are two memes that caught my attention: Someone has pointed out the current problem of the unit pool and what gets to Global quite well. Allow me to quote:

For someone like me, base price of Hollow Knight is lower than deserved (a "steal," as they say). But for you, difficult to be sure of; I can say that Celeste was my favorite game before Hollow Knight, so if you enjoyed that game then that may be indicative. Have you played a metroidvania before, and if so did you enjoy it or not? ? Honestly, your enthusiasm for the series (not to mention the amazing music) has done a lot to make me interested in trying it out. I bought Generations Ultimate for the switch, but I haven't had time to actually try it yet. On a side note, a Youtuber I follow recently did a video essay on the series which I found to be entertainingly informative: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DMyw3uz4Ys I've never played Pokemon, and I'm not too motivated to do so at this time. If more comes of the open world from Arceus . . . I probably still won't feel like playing it, but it'd be a bit more likely. Sword & Shield soundtrack is great, though!

I've only had the chance to play 3ds monhun and, I loved them even with the wonky camera controls. Only wish G rank wasn't stupidly time consuming to solo in those games because of hp scaling... it kinda burned me out in the end. Also share the same lukewarm feelings towards pokemon, though I just, haven't felt the itch to play any of the games in a while really. Anyways, my favorite goes back and forth between Final Fantasy 6 and Xenoblade Chronicles 1. Also I'm sure I would love SMT if I could get behind the whole demon system.

@Isaacyes! I do! I really love celeste too, it was when i was doing a speedrun of the game, the level design is absolutely spectacular, though the game isn't as hard as everyone says it is. It is absolutely still one of the best indie games I've played in a long time
