I found the cutscene for that part of the story on YT so I though I might as well share.
It does have spoilers so if you're planning to play Genshin in the future or want to see the story unspoiled then just don't watch it for now.

The visuals are really something ngl, especially the characters' faces. Though I suppose my favorite thing is the soundtrack. I just love the soundtracks from the game and promo videos lol.

In F/GO I'm working on leveling Ozymandias up, and hkdjghkd I just realized he has DIO's voice and I just xD
OzymanDIO lol

Echowo · June 14, 2022 13:29:45

You thought it was Ozymandias, but it is I, DIO!

SpecterTheGreat · June 14, 2022 14:36:26

For reallll lol

SpecterTheGreat · June 14, 2022 19:01:40

Now that I've finished Epic of Remnant welll I'm kinda scared to continue on to the next arc in F/GO cause.... yeah, I'm a little bit spoiled, and I fear.

SpecterTheGreat · June 14, 2022 19:03:27

Oh and great news! I passed my entrance exam :D so if my papers and stuff are processed correctly, classes ahould be starting in a couple months.
I can't help but feel a bit proud that I was one of the 9 people that passed from my group, and there were at least 50 people in my group. :3c

GalaxianExplosion · June 15, 2022 01:56:33

Nice job! You should be proud of that. Don't forget to keep your skills polished as well just in case, but most importantly, make sure to rest up and do the things you like in the meantime. And let us know when it starts so we can give another congratulations!

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · June 15, 2022 23:01:58

Thank you, really :D
You and everyone else are really good moral support, I can't ever stop being thankful of that :3

Echowo · June 16, 2022 07:06:02

OwO! Congrats! Qnbfkkfnqkd

SpecterTheGreat · June 16, 2022 07:12:09

Yesterday I cleared the event shop in the Perilous Trail event, and I feel accomplished hehe. There's like three missions I didn't complete b ut it's okay because they were the hardest ones and the rewards didn't include primogems.
I guess that now that I finished the event, I'll focus on the new one. The Drumalong is REALLY fun for me because, come on, it's a rhythm game! With character themes too! Anyways if I get good scores on pro difficulty I might record and upload vids. Don't count on it though lol.

Preilous Trail gave me lessons on team and character building. Ngl my character building really sucks hahahah. I guess it's time to farm for artifacts? Good artifacts too lol.
I mean I don't really have a leveled up DPS, cause I just go with three sub-DPS and a support lol. Or just use Zhongli as main damage dealer when he's supposed to be a support/sub-DPS.
Aside from Diluc, I'm planning to level up Sayu as well. But I have to finish leveling Diona and Chongyun, but I don't have many materials for Cryo characters because I don't have good counters to farm those mats.

SpecterTheGreat · June 16, 2022 07:16:35

Also I hope I get enough primogems to do two more 10-pulls on Xiao's banner because I've heard of something called a 50-50 at 50 wishes and I want to see if that's true.

Me, broke in Genshin, and with like 210 Quartz in F/GO
XD

unfortunately I haven't caught up with Genshin's latest events (so I can't comment in regards to the plot stuff atm) but in regards to the 50/50:
basically, whenever you reach 70 pulls since your last 5* character, the chance of getting a 5* slowly increases until you reach 90 wishes, which is known as "hard pity" (the increase starting at 70 is called "soft pity"). Every time you get a 5*, the counter gets reset
the 50/50 thing is referring to your chance of either getting the banner character or one of the standard 5* characters (mona, diluc, keqing, qiqi, jean). The 5* character you get has a 50% chance of being the banner character, and 50% chance of not being one - hence the term "50/50". If you lose the 50/50 (which you did by getting diluc instead of xiao), then it means that your next 5* character from the event banner is 100% guaranteed to be the banner character. If you win the 50/50 (in other words, you get the banner character), then your pity count is reset, and the chance your next 5* is the banner character is back at 50%
hopefully that explains it! Good luck wishing for Xiao

Also congrats!!! that's definitely something you should be proud of

SpecterTheGreat · June 20, 2022 07:11:59

Thank you Autumn :3

Yesterday I actually used up the last of my primos on my 70th pull since Diluc and ah well no luck. This is the most wishes I've done on any banner so far but idk lol I guess I'll try like one or two single wishes before the banner times out?

NOT GENSHIN MAKING ME FEEL SO BAD FOR THE HILICHURLS
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FARM HILICHURL LOOT
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO MY DAILIES NOW

SpecterTheGreat · June 21, 2022 16:31:39

For context, hilichurls are like the most common enemy mob in the game

Apparently learning to do hair is a vital skill but I can't even braid or pin up mine so :')
I say this after a good 15 minutes of failing to set it good with clips. CLIPS. What should be the most basic thing in hair styling. I don't care much for fancy stuff but I do want to learn how to keep my hair out of my face from now on.

Unrelated but a few days ago I got this hairstyle that looked like tiny horns on my head. It looked between kinda cute and kinda cool for a character, so I'll try that for a drawing. Not sure I want to use that hairstyle again though.

SpecterTheGreat · June 22, 2022 19:44:56

Help i just swallowed my toothpaste on accident????

GalaxianExplosion · June 22, 2022 22:18:53

Late, but depending on the amount, you might want to call the Poison Control Center, though of course you should first refer to your toothpaste label

-Galaxian-

Echowo · June 22, 2022 23:01:19

I think, like, a pea shaped size should be fine but probs depends on the toothpaste brand too

Basket Cat · June 23, 2022 10:42:41

Oh gods Specter are you still alive

SpecterTheGreat · June 23, 2022 10:48:32

I think it's so funny that out of all the posts in my homethread this is the one you guys replied to.
But yeah I'm fine it was just that I choked on the toothpaste and made a dramatic post xD

SpecterTheGreat · June 23, 2022 12:11:21

I'm going to make lasagna today >:3c

Basket Cat · June 23, 2022 12:29:33

L A S A G N A

CAN I HAVE SOME

Basket Cat · June 23, 2022 12:29:44

GIMME THE PIZZA CAKE

SpecterTheGreat · June 23, 2022 16:27:44

I had never heard of lasagna being called pizza cake and I kinda love it.

Echowo · June 23, 2022 21:05:24

Make an infinity layers lasagna

~~ALSO GIVE ME SOME~~

SpecterTheGreat · June 24, 2022 07:31:27

I normally make a triple meat layer lasagna. I think lasagna is better thicker than that but not so much as infinitiy xD

I'd love to share what I bake with you guys but unfortunately I can't do so through the internet

SpecterTheGreat · June 24, 2022 17:11:48

Just got Meltryllis in F/GO from a ticket while I was trying for NP2 Kingprotea
That's cool! I wasn't expecting to get much lol but now I have three Alter Egos in my Chaldea and each of a different card type!
Kingprotea is Buster, Sitonai is Arts, and Meltryllis is Quick. Now I just have to get enough EXP to raise her lol. But I'm happy, I feel lucky xD

SpecterTheGreat · June 24, 2022 17:16:15

I'm doing the SE.RA.PH event thing going on rn and I'm at the Finale section now. I'm kinda scared because I know battles increase in difficulty as you progress...so I'll brace myself, I guess.
About the story though, it's okay, not SUPER interesting but also not boring, though some of the dialogue feels a bit too fanservice-y for me which is :/. I am really enjoying the battles though. Mash and Saber Hokusai + Lanling Wang (thank you GalaxE) are a power trio and they've carried me through class advantage and neutral class advantage. Here's to hoping I can finish the event.

It won't be today though, I can't play much because tomorrow I've got this really important test whose results will be very useful in my future résumé (if I get good results for my certificate anyways.)
So yes, study time for now.
