Girls who played it-is it better than Genshin? My problem with Genshin is sunk cost fallacy. I spent so much time on it and feel obligated to keep playing it because I already spent that time.

I will probably try it out, I likest most male designs. There are only a few females one that I like, some of them have a specific design element that female genshin characters also have (armpits out, thigh strap, knee high socks) that makes a bit irritated. Hopefully there will be more girls that I actually like. With Genshin I chose Lumine to play but for Star Rail I will probably choose the guy. I really don't like the skirt and thigh strap the fmc is wearing and I like to self-insert with female characters but I would never wear something like that.

>>275986I haven't actually counted recently but the last time I did it looked like Starrail does its character m:f ratio basically the same as Genshin, meaning the five star banners are approximately even but four stars are heavily skewed female
Anyway, I can see how anyone who's a lover of the genshin manlets wouldn't be looking at this game with much anticipation, but as someone who wishes genshin wasn't so full of very young looking guys, this game looks great for husbando collecting to me. I'm only really worried that the gameplay grind of it may be too much of a chore long term. I don't mind genshin dailies because I find genshin combat actually fun, but something turn based? We'll see ig

>>276104mobile gaming is a massive market with thousands of entries, anon. I dunno your taste. we have an entire mobage thread on this very board you can browse, go skim through it or make a post there about what you're looking for to get some recommendations catered to you.
>no hoyo bootlickermy ass. genshit is one thing but an unremarkable turnbased rpg gacha is not a groundbreaking, top of the line experience no other f2p mobage has done (better) before. the autistic urge to resist change is limiting your scope to the company that made your special interest game. I'll let you in on a little secret: most mobile gacha games are f2p turnbased rpgs! some have characters that don't look ai generated, some have a surplus of female writers resulting in a story that isn't dogshit, and some even pander to women exclusively, not to men with the occasional stiff anime nigel to tide over the cucked female playerbase once or twice a year. a novel concept, I know.

Checked leaks and they keep adding hideous waifu coomer bait designs like pic as well as retarded lolis.

>>277577>oppressive powerfulYou're referring to a small, bitter group of people mass reporting things that make them seethe to the Chinese government, who has in the past gone as far as to arrest women for producing said content. Do you also believe Keffals is oppressive and powerful? Or the trannies who allegedly reported RedKatherine to the RUS Government? That behavior is coming from a place of not only jealousy over a fictional scrote but genuine homophobia and misogyny, no matter how strong your vendetta against fujos is it's disgusting to support or even simply feel vindicated by it.
And if you're going to throw the word incel around, I sure hope you weren't the anon who was shaming women for having boyfriends IRL in the husbando thread. Don't project your own femcel mental illness onto others.

>>292301Thanks for the link! I thought it wasn't going to be that fun when I heard it's not open world but tbh it feels just like open world, just using teleport more instead of walking long distance. The combat in the livestream seemed complicated too but playing it, it's pretty to get a hold of all the character skills. One thing I dislike it how quickly enemy shields are regenerated but I feel like it's not gonna be a big issue once we start building characters. I like it so far and will probably keep playing it. The female characters walking around in their underwear is tolerable if we'll get good stories kek

>>292301So far from what I've seen, it seems to have better writing than genshin. Also it has some actually funny tidbits, like MC being obsessed with trash cans. In genshin the humour is very paimon-centric and we know paimon is insufferable, but here it has some really hilarious stuff, like the references to the metaverse kek. I expected march to be annoying, like paimon but she's pretty decent so far. Both her and danheng are very cliche and trope-y , but I can tolerate them and I enjoy the found family aspect. Kafka reminds me too much of makima tbh, but her design is cool. The problem is that most female characters don't look very memorable, I've seen some of the new leaked girls and they all look so boring and have cluttered designs just like honkai (bonus giant boobs). March, kafka and FEMC are probably the best designed right now. As for husbandos, i really like jingyuan, blade and yanqing but I'm not very interested in the rest (or any of the other leaked guys). I wanted to reroll for yanqing at first but since I can already get him at 300 rolls I decided to go with the first account I made where I got bailu. She's a strong healer so she's gonna be useful. The battle system is a bit tiring though and I don't have a lot of patience for it, not a huge fan of turn-based RPGs

Aaaaah my first 5 star is Gepard I'm so happy he is just so cute! i love his idle animation so much, pic related.
>>292362>They finally stopped with the jelly boob physics, thank GodKek I noticed that too, they really toned down the animation. Some of the female characters designs I don't like, Bronya and Pela both look like they dont have any pants. However there are also some very cute female character designs. I really like Herta and Asta. The dialogue def is a lot better, it helps that we don't have a character like Paimon who just repeats everything and the female characters indeed have more personality then in genshin.
>>292479>>292480No problem and yeah I agree with the fact that enemy shields regenerate pretty quick. The dog is indeed so cute! and yes it feels like it's still openworld for me since the closed off worlds are just so bigg!
>>292486>like MC being obsessed with trash cansKek I really like how the MC has so much personality. I can understand that if you don't like turn based that it might be tiring to play this.
No. 292521
>>292519not sure if this is what you mean but I think it's great that the short women model look like grown women actually. They're taller than GI model for short women/teenager. Only Herta's model stands out to me (and others who share her model if there's more, I dont have them yet) but I just take her robot thing as a child model anyway. I even like npc models way more compared to GI, they all have different clothes and all even though they share the same model. Even children look less uncanny valley kek and the playable children (Bailu) are the same size as npc children, they dont have the huge head syndrome GI has either. I think SR's models are a real upgrade to GI, can't compare it to Honkai Impact though.
Unrelated but I love how truly alive cities feel in SR. Npcs are just randoms minding their business as opposed to GI where if you can talk to an npc, they're just there to lead you to a game mechanic or say one specific thing about the city/world. I love the attention to detail, I was mesmerized when I saw/heard the guitar playing girl.

>>292924I just wish they had gaven her some kind of shorts under her skirt like what they did with Lumine. Don't click the reddit link if you don't want to see moids degeneracy but they are already taking panty shots of the female mc already.
https://www.reddit.com/r/HonkaiStarRail/comments/132j8gl/funfact_characters_dont_become_transparent_while/ I really hate how just like the genshin sub reddit this one is filled with moids sexualising the female characters. I feel like the only place where it doesn't happen is here, so i hope this thread won't die. Do you guys know any other place for star rail that isn't filled with moids?
>>292876Once you are a higher level you can grind very easy for character materials. Unlike genshin where you have to wait certain days till a domain is open to enter it, you don't have that here. Also you can use the speed up and auto button so that in a few minutes you have used your "resin". This makes it a lot less grindy then genshin imo. My advice would be to focus on leveling a few characters that you like and raising there traces (talents). The relics you get in the beginning are very bad so its not worth to level them. With the light cones i would advice to level the lvl 4 ones and above.

>>293118I really like Female MC's design except for one tiny detail which
triggers me immensely, which is the retarded blue stripe on her tight (rant incoming).
I already dislike how mihoyo constantly forces most of its female characters
at least in genshin to have an element of "zettai ryoiki" with stupid looking thigh bracelet things, but why the fuck would they make it bright blue in a character whose palette is completely made of black, grey and gold? I like female mc's design other than that and I really love the colour cohesion, so it peeves me so much why would they fuck up the colour pallete like that with such and obviously bad choice. It also fucks up the focal point, it's like you're being
forced to focus on her thigh (gross)
I haven't had much issue with character design in star rail

I like most character designs except for the ones where it looks like the girls aren't wearing any pants (Bronya ect).
>>293135I have the same issue, also the thigh bracelete thing also has like no use? Like maybe if it was actually used for like holding a weapon or maybe attaching a pocket to it i would understand. But I hate it so much when they give a female character that useless thingie. Like you said its just there so that people are forced to look at her thighs.
>>293169If you mean the official discord, its mostly just 12 year old boys. The fan-creation has some hilarious bad art. Truely worthy to being posted in the bad art thread. But like I mentioned they are all kids so it's understandable it looks so bad.

saw this while browsing reddit (i know) and thought it was interesting. thoughts, nonnas?
i think the darker parts could have lended themselves to the ending of the Belobog arch a little better–considering Bronya's ultimate decision in regards to the Cocolia situation–but then i can see how rock cancer and hundreds of years of isolation, due to what i assume was the product of some flavor of religious zeal, could have been a little much for a game like this.

>>295861I like the more relaxed story to be honest. I think 10 years of the two parts of the city being sealed is a better choice because it would be too heavy to be solved so quickly if it was centuries. People actually remember each other the way it is now, otherwise it would be too complicated. The rock cancer reminds me of Arknights that has much heavier writing and actually has serious long standing conflicts in its story and yeah, it would be way too heavy for Star Rail imo. Add in the hatred being brewed for centuries between the citizens and it's just not a story fit to be told as your entrance to this magic world. We wouldn't be having the happy reunion cutscenes at the end because there would still be too many in-city conflicts and problems to be solved, which I think ended Belobog's story in a great note. Also I prefer Hook to be happy with her father. I think Mondstadt in Genshin was also more chill than other places, an easier introduction to the game seems to be working well to hook the player in without throwing you realistic political issues. The city would feel more hostile too and from my Genshin experience I still hate Inazuma because it feels so oppressive even after we fixed it. Also, again in the topic of Hook, she felt like a breath of fresh air and showed the life of the city. Children being children could be told as fun side stories because they weren't being treated as demons or seeing everyone die of rock cancer. I have a feeling Belobog will continue to be the place most players feel at home, other than the Express.

>>295894i've found it easiest to while away the time by keeping myself busy. if you haven't already, you could start farming relics for a decent build and mats for his levels and traces, and begin planning your team.
outside of in-game busy work, you could engage with the fandom side of the game, if you don't mind wading through a lot of bullshit. you could collect fanart of him that you like, draw him yourself, or start putting together a playlist inspired by him. if you're a writer, you could write about him.
the waiting game is a hassle, but that doesn't mean it has to be painful, too. staying occupied will make the time pass more quickly, and before you know it his banner will be right around the corner!

>Seele–she certainly didn't crash any servers like our boy didAbout her sales, they are high because they include all top ups including for the standard banner and the battle pass ect. Whales want to get all the standard characters so they drop a lot of money in the first patch, so those revenues are included in the random pictures that people have been sharing online about her supposely sales. So in summary her sales aren't actually that high in reality, so don't worry about trying to compare it since stuff like that is inaccurate. Sadly we have no accurate way of knowing how much a banner sales, but the fact that they made the server crash probably is a sign that indeed a lot of people are trying to get Jing Yuan!

I saw a theory saying that the reason she can walk around on snow no problem is due to her being experimented on by Vache for blizzard immunity which would at least make sense.

makima who i hate with a burning passion. i feel like only obnoxious pornsick moids are obsessed with spoiler and her. and it makes me so sad. i feel the same way about voicelines too… hopefully they’ll add on more & the whole blade’s past story will make sense too.

it's kinda obvious that mihoyo writers just keep pushing the same trope again and again, apparently their writers think this is somehow peak writing and very romantic, even though the actual female fans made it obvious they are extremely tired of this shit
No. 300033
>>299813>not honkai but zhongli was implied to have oneitis for guizhongNot to hijack with Genshin lore but no he didn't, the Guizhong shit was entirely a runaway fanmade theory and based on a few excerpts from an item description that mentioned them having been friends in the past. They retconned nothing, the people who assumed they were lovers just because Zhongli received a gift from Guizhong were setting themselves up for disappointment to begin with when she was revealed to be a lesbian. Zhongli is a benevolent figure associated with many figures from Liyue lore, he also saved Xiao from his previous
abusive owner and again his life during the Chasm event.
One of the reasons why I really can't seem to get into HSR or Honkai in general is that the male characters exist to be generic handsome knights for the female characters and have canon wives and lovers and shit. A lot of my friends unfamiliar with Honkai are getting so hyped for HSR and I know their hopes will be crushed once they realize Mihoyo still doesn't give a shit about their female players and Honkai is entirely a waifufag-based property. I'm just hoping Genshin will be more
fujopandering now that everyone has moved on to the HSR bandwagon and they need to find new sources of revenue.

Started playing this game, I can't take any of the female designs in the ice world seriouslybecause their outfits are so incongruous with the environment. Seeing Clara run around snow with bare feet physically hurts me and I can't wait to move on to the next world so that I can let my Clara free in normal conditions.
I guess this applies to Sampo as well but honestly… He has such a "bully me" personality that I sort of enjoy seeing him in clothes that would make him suffer in cold weather.
In other news, I got Kafka! I was initially turned off by her design because the disappointment of her design in particular falling prey to MHY's refusal to put women in real pants was too great, but I was sold on her within the first ten minutes of the game… She's too charismatic. Gonna ship my female trailblazer with her and choose not to go on any Star Rail related social media since I can tell every post about her will be the same ugly coomer whine of mommy shit.

I came from Genshin and while people memed on those female designs a lot HSR went way further, every woman is wearing the most ridiculous shit ever. And it gets even worse in the China region, you get not one but two identical sexy fox girls. Kafka is possibly the only adult female character that's wearing real clothes instead of tattered lingerie and even she gets the mommy dommy treatment from everyone. It's like almost every female character is made around someone's fetish
and sushang as that one female mihoyo employee's self insert like the aloof hacker lolis (two of them), foot fetish loli, elegant mommy bride, tomboy tsundere, ojousama, the engineer oneesan, literal dragon loli… I like the boys and the game in itself is enjoyable but god I feel like the only sober person in the room amongst those female designs.

>>317358I actually like fuxuans design, for me it's one of the best in the if not the best for woman even if they don't fit her position. her outfit colors fit nicely (in compersion to seele for example), theres not too many details in it I think it's pretty cute over all.

>>317358>Yukong especially disappointed me because it's so rare to see a mother character (even if her kid is adopted)It's so fucking hilarious that they pulled this TWO times in a row, Cocolia with Bronya and Yukong with her daughter, absolutely no shame. I guess they have to pander to the mommy fetish but still have to have the women remain virginal, and possibly have their daughter be fuckable as well. Honestly during the entire Belobog arc I was way too distracted by Cocolia walking around in her underwear to take her seriously as the "supreme guardian", and only facepalmed harder when Yukong came along. How the fuck come Jing Yuan is given an actually noble outfit showing his status and my lady Yukong is here dressed like a stripper with her thong out?
>>317435Her design would be so much better if she didn't have the traditional Mihoyo armpit&bared back fetish pandering.
>>317447Honestly most female designs in Genshin were boring but in HSR they're just unapologetically ugly. Designs like Serval, Seele and Asta are a hot fucking mess wearing the most mismatched pieces with no composition at all. It's like someone just pressed a "randomize" button.

What percentage of HSR text do you nonnas actually read? Right now I'm steamrolling content to get pulls and there's just so much text that I find myself skimming… But then I inevitably see something that catches my eye and makes me regret not reading, kek.
Not to be that obnoxious Genshin comparer, but on average I do actually find the writing in this game to be much more interesting, both in terms of the actual lore and simple entertainment value. I was genuinely surprised the first couple times sidequests actually had me feeling something even if I only read bits and pieces of them. The underground fighter who whittled away his health after losing his family, just for the sake of donating to Natasha's clinic so that he could somewhat fill the void left in him, made me emo.

>>317480I found myself doing the same as you in the beginning, nona. I'd skim through most text because I was initially only interested in pulls. But now I wish I'd paid more attention to the build-up of the story. Moreso in the Space Station and Jarilo-VI, I didn't care much for the Xianzhou Luofu storyline personally. If I could continue to stay/progress in Jarilo-VI then I absolutely would.

Kafka's banner has come and gone, and I now breathe a sigh of relief knowing that I can enjoy the story at my own pace without grinding out pulls on a deadline… I got her E1 and will krep holding onto my rolls to try to F2P E6 her whenever she reruns.
Good luck to all of the nonnas husbando-pulling! Sending you my strength!

>>318332I usually use either the Korean or the Chinese and have found both to be enjoyable. It's a nice change of pace when most of the media I consume comes with either English or Japanese voice acting options only.
I'm curious, what is everybody's favorite VA for Sampo? His performance varies a lot between the languages, and the English in particular seems to be polarizing with fans. I personally like the Korean the best, it has the right mix of attractive and pathetic sleaze to it for me. The English is fun in it's own way, but having heard him in the other three languages first it just sounds way too different for my ears to integrate as him.

Ahhh, i lost the coinflip and my entire savings were drained trying to get dragon boy so he's coping with the herta store cone. His stats are only slightly better than my jingyuan but he's much stronger. I'm glad they gave husbando enjoyers such a strong unit. Now if only we could get a male harmony…i really hope they release one soon

My Cold Dragon Young hits like a truck, even with his traces and relics only half built, and it's actually hilarious. He's making my fully built speed tuned JY look like a schlub kek. Rip cool grandpa, I guess.
On the story side of this update, I really feel like we could have gotten this last chapter in the previous patch. It was so short and we still barely have half an answer to any of the bigger questions surrounding the whole thing! MHY come on!

Is the similarity in Yukong and Tingyun's appearances ever acknowledged in game…? Thry look like reskins of each other to me, and I kept waiting for another character to comment on it when the two were introducedin the story. Unless I missed something, it's never brought up. Am I insane for thinking they look identical?

>>318651Makes sense to me. You're the ones baffled over people enjoying a game's story in the game's own thread.
I'm never going to be somebody who calls Hoyo's writing good but man you need to find something better to do with your time.

>>318659>They look identicalYes
>In game people would notice thatNo. They're used to seeing fluffy haired fox women around and if they're self aware enough to tell npcs and pcs apart, they know a certain group of female characters/people dress skimpy and almost identical because it's always the same fetishes. Tbf all characters have the same face except for eyes and to give them a foxy look they went with a similar shape.

anyone else dropped off this game hard?
The new event is so boring to me, it's mostly just dull text with not a lot going on. I'm also not a fan on how much they're dragging out the main story.
I loved the Space Station and Jarilo, but The Xianzhou Luofu is so dull. I really wanted to love this game, and I did for the first couple of months.

>>358829In all honesty you can tell when the moid Honkai head writer took over when the story gets so fucking autistic and sloggish and turns into a boring ass space opera going absolutely nowhere and treating its characters as plot devices instead of developed personalities. Xianzhou Luofu was probably the worst written Mihoyo story I've ever read, on par with Inazuma, with a rapid fire introduction of a billion characters you never get to know, a ton of confusing shit happening at the same time and none of those substories came to a conclusion and everything was left open ended in a very unsatisfying way. Literally nobody that I have met could tell what the fuck was the point of that stupid story chapter and I think the writer had no idea either, he just wanted to show off all the "cool" concepts that he had in his mind. The event/interlude stories have been much more coherent and interesting and Penacony started off much better so there's still hope. I think.
>>358831The gameplay in Star Rail is so bad though. I'm glad they included the autoplay mechanic but what's the point in playing it when the games do it for you? The combat isn't rewarding because it's a pay2win scenario and the battles are so annoying to get through, especially for a husbando player since every single male character that gets released is Imaginary element and even for the waifufag in me I hate the female characters and how they all wear ugly lingerie instead of real clothes.

>>359186same nona
I played the game when it first came out and instantly fell in love with this idiot.
I dropped off the game after about 2 months though because the 3rd area you go to is so fucking boring.
Supposedly Sampo has more screentime in the more recent patches, but I just can't be bothered.
