Satisfying Downfall.
once a wise man said: “They didn't treat their players as users to exploit, and they didn't make decisions they knew were shortsighted in function of a bonus or politics. They knew that if you put the game and the team first, the revenue will follow. They were driven by idealism, and wanted players to have fun. They realized that if the developers
didn't have fun, nobody was going to have any fun. And they understood the value of respect. That, if they treated their developers and players well, those same developers and players would forgive them when things didn't go as planned.
But above all they cared about their game, because the love games.”

This doesn't look good... ( rant and some advice)
Wuthering Waves 2.3 anniversary update have been a rollercoaster of emotions. i can't say i am much excited for wuwa 2.3 anymore.
i have been a wuwa player since the launch and have rarely missed out on any characters. I felt wuwa and i believe still is a very easy to grind and easy to gacha game to this day, however... Read Note

Wuthering Waves 2.2 review with rating (15 pictures) ( 🔴🔴🔴🔴 spoiler level extreme)
pros: 🟢
1. the story was great, probably better than the shorekeeeper one.
2. lesser yap
3. good lore and mystery
4. world building and lore building was done right.
5. each character had their own arc, they of them had their reasons to be there in the story.
6. story was short and to the point
Cons: 🔴
1. solving puzzles was good until it wasn't
2. fighting with spectro rover was so annoying.
3. i still don't know if this story progresses the main rinacita chapter.
4. WuWa have to move away from love type stories/harem. i am very new to harem games.
Rating: 8.2/10
Conclusion🟡: the story was great shorter but enough to make to play through the whole in one go, you won't even notice that your phone battery is running out. Read Note

Something is not happening right with star rail and i need to talk about it.
i stopped playing Honkai: Star Rail after version 3.0, so I can't speak for the updates since then(but i have watched some clips on YouTube). However, my biggest issue with the game was its storytelling. The reliance on shock value—using death or unexpected twists to keep players engaged—was intriguing at first, but over time, it became repetitive and lost its impact. Now, when a random character dies, my reaction is just, 'Bleh, next.'
There’s a lack of artistic depth in the narrative. The story fails to evoke emotions or build meaningful connections with the characters. It doesn’t make me want to wait for the next chapter, understand the characters' struggles, or feel invested in their journeys. That crucial 'sauce' that makes a story compelling is simply missing.
and on top of that the incredible amount of power creep they do with their game. they just want you do get a new character, they just want you to spend your money and you always fell for it.
the gacha system as worse as it is, but the absence of a skip button adds to the frustration. Honkai: Star Rail, I’m sorry, but your storytelling needs serious improvement, your enemy mechanics needs improvement. My advice? Give your writers more time. They have potential, but the execution isn’t there yet. and from the gameplay perspective? tone your powercreep act down a little bit next time.
Great storytelling requires trust, time, passion, and creativity—elements that, unfortunately, are lacking right now. i am sorry but you have failed me.

Laggy as hell
i play most my games on ultra high graphics. with my processor 8 gen 3 which i recently upgraded i can play games like hsr or wuwa or genshin you name it, at 60 fps without much lag. but then there is infinity nikki, laggy as hell. this game is like a snapdragon debuff. almost a month or two in and still no optimization. there is NO, NO fps option where i can manually change the setting. and i thought wuthering waves had Rough android launch. damn.

genshin impact 5.3 act 5 story was good(updated)
act 4 and act 5 was intense and good. they finally made the traveler treat like an actual MC. the captain is a gigachad.
overall i will give act 4 and 5 a rating of 8/10.

wuthering waves 2.0 review. (spoiler free) (17 pictures)
act 1 of rinascitas story was kinda... fine but act 2 and 3 did the justices. by fine i mean the it wasn't as great as i anticipated but it works. as for voice acting, zani voice acting wasn't that great, trust me I love her italian accent but where is the acting?? and her accent didn't match her face. phoebe voice acting was good and Carlotta's was perfect. music/ soundtrack is absolutely great and overall i will give it a 7.8/10. there are few more patches to come before they are done with rinascita.

Carlotta is almost here, are you going to pull?
personally i dont think i can pull her as i am currently short on astrites and i didn't do much grinding. my eyes are set on Phoebe and Zani.

this update been underwhelming (just an healthy rant)
wuthering waves 1.2 version was underwhelming not to mention the duration of each update is very long.
there is not a lot of event giving handsome rewards after moon chasing festival and that “door" event. not enough to replenish enough astrites to get the next featured character. i am not sure if i can get shorekeeper or not.
lets just wait for 1.3, i heard the main story is going to continue from there. Read Note

Next path for the trailblazer( must read)
According to the leak, the next iteration of Star Rail's Trailblazer will see the main character shift into an unplayable path, the Remembrance Path. which is likely to be added in the Star Rail's next world. The addition of a Remembrance variant of the Trailblazer would be particularly notable, as the Path is currently exclusive to the Simulated Universe.
**the next planet, Amphoreus is most likely to be released in January or after update version 2.7**

got her.... twice.
i was building up chances for the shorekeeper and accidentally got her twice... guess i gotta start over now. i currently have 60 astrites.
chances are extremely low that will get shorekeeper. but hey that's not some thing I get everyday.
