...and he was mad.

This "Guild Researcher"/"Rich_KnowIt" ​was ex-HSS employee right? So he worked in Intelligentsia Guild in Mundane Troubles? Assuming Dr. Ratio is "Peoplebreaker" in the chat, was he working with Ratio or independently in this patch?

Is there any update about what happened to him after this?

Was hoping to see if anyone here might have an answer regarding her concept art!

Recently listened remix video for Twisted Garden (Nameless Deity OST) by Kuudray and saw [2nd photo].

Ofc my first thought was IX with Xeroc's eye, maybe even something with Acheron but im so bad as an artist. What do you think?

Hey everyone! 👋

First, thanks to the mods for letting me share this here! (Haha, I actually asked 38 days ago D:) 🙏

I've been working on a small HSR project focused on analyzing endgame data, and I wanted to share it with you all!

The main goal of the website is to answer questions like:

• Which characters and teams are players using against specific encounters?
• Which teammates and team compositions are actually being used with a particular character?

To answer these questions, I took a public dataset of endgame clears, analyzed it, and built a few features around the results.

You can check out the website here: https://astravoy.net/hsr

And here are some infographics I exported from it!

I've been curious when characters like himeko have been one of the most anticipated characters ever since planarcadia been announced but her sales are somehow not meeting expectations. What if she was elation, will her sales do better than what we have now?

Was reading 0083 Rebellion and noticed this GM’s name is kind of familiar, so I decided to post it here. I will post its full name on the comment

Three nice things I liked about every patch (Must not include characters):

Herta Space Station:

• I unironically love the OST there.
• Cool Space vibes.
• I think the labs are actually pretty freaky during Ruan Mei's missions and very atmospheric.

Belobog:

• Unironically love the Frozen Russian Steampunk vibes.
• The Fragmentumn honestly keeps me up at night with it's subtle corrupting horrors.
• WE MADE A CHOICE GO FIGHT AGAINST YOUR FAAAAAAATE-

Luofu:

• The lore in the readables unironically are fun to read and made the Abundance my favorite Aeon for a while.
• Some of the environments are unironically beautiful and I like walking around them just to stare.
• Ghost Event Arumn Alley was so good that they remain one of my favorites to this day.

Penacony:

• Art Deco vibes make my brain go Brrrrr, unironically one of my favorite vibes. Dreamy vibes mixed with Disney vibes mixed with New York made the whole thing such a vibe for me.
• Some of my favorite sidequests can be found here. Some of my favorite overworld interactable too.
• I like how they sorta low-key tricked us into thinking Ena was the problem when really Xipe and The Family that was the problem and the IPC coming in was an ultimately tragic ending for the place given it's backstory and history.

Amphoreous:

• Just like with the Luofu, the lore in the readables and backstory unironically goes so hard.
• This one had a lot of NPCs with good dialog, I like how they at least tried to make you care about the NPCs.
• Had some really good Events like Seal Slammers and the restaurant event.

Planarcadia:

• Duomension City is absolutely unashamed of being large, fun, and having multiple NPCS that make blatant anime references.
• I never expected the Mourning Actors to be legitimately right about the Elation. Ad absolutely valid in their take and just unfortunately under bad PR.
• Voracity quickly becoming one of my favorite Aeons around here because they're terrifying.

Astropolis:

• I love the beach and the colorful Mid-Century Modern California vibes (or retro vibes as some call it). It reminds me a lot of Fallout before the nukes!
• The IPC's CEO Corporate Nightmare power plays are unironically horrifying and fun to watch. This is such a nightmare corporation. Sometimes I like to listen to the NPCs talk about their nightmare shifts that lasted three days with nothing but coffee and grit.
• I cannot believe they included the Backrooms and it's unironically a place that bad employees get sent to pay off debt. If they don't just wander there and go mad and die. Truly a nightmare corporation.

ZZZ is slowly rising on my “story” ranking after witnessing S3 peakness.

I'm sorry

Okay, I am not someone who will read every piece of text in Simulated Universe, nor am I someone who absolutely memorised every line of the main story or side stories, although I have pretty good memory. However, I am proud of my taste in writing, and I am a good guesser to what direction a plot might turn, specially if I know the whole context.

Ok, so let’s start with Asat Pramad as a character. Asat Pramad is, from the readers’ points of view, an irredeemable piece of shit that is also likeable and stirs curiosity both from his experience and knowledge. Players want to see him suffer, but want him to die regretting what he did, we want him to suffer for real, which he seems nonchalant about his loss, that’s annoying!

So, from the writer’s perspective, what options do we have to make the readers satisfied, while keeping up the good writing:

A) Asat Pramad becoming the mind behind the Aeon of Desire, dying as the we defeat him again.

B) Asat Pramad somehow running away, mad that nothing went according to his plan.

Well, there is a problem with these options… A) Will not make the readers satisfied at all, B) will not be a good writing due to Asat Pramad not caring enough whether he wins or loses… Also, we don’t really want to fight him yet again…

But there is an option C… An option that forces Asat Pramad to redeem himself although he has no intention to, while make him suffer emotionally for such a punishment… Make Asat Pramad an Aeon!!! Whether it’s Aha or the newborn Desire, if Asat Pramad truly becomes an Aeon, there is nothing he can do! Aeon’s become concepts, so him as a concept of Elation or Desire he would finally understand Akivili’s and Aha’s perspective and be shackled for eternity!

So yeah, right now, I can’t imagine anything else. Firstly, although many say “Nihilux cannot be Aha” or “Nihilux is way too useless to be Aha”, I truly believe that there is only one Aha, and is certainly Nihilux. But, Aha has been falling for a long time, not only has Nihilux already come into terms with it, Aha is clearly inside Voracity and there is nothing she can do for now. Currently, Nihilux’s power is very similar to Sunday as the Order, a fallen Path that has yet to fade. So, seeing how Nihilux is playable and none of her animations seem to scream “I am definitely Aha”, we can assume that by the end of the quest, Nihilux will no longer be Aha. In that case, nothing prevents Asat Pramad to become an Aeon related to Elation anymore, we have many things at play, a newborn Aeon, a former Aeon and a wish to be made. All of these things have a good plausibility to make Asat Pramad an Aeon.

completed my second week of drawing hsr characters as kemonomimi 🎮

Finished the planarcadia page 🎮 and started on the chrysos heirs 👑.

(if anyone knows of a way to stop pencil from smudging/fading when you are resting your hand on top of it - such as when drawing on other parts of the page - please let me know 😅)

trying to improve my chibis and stylisation, as well as my traditional art skills ✏

This is probably a dumb question but like, I know Oni’s, Halovians, Memokeepers and Intellitrons exist but what about the others? Aventurine, Jade or Topaz? Are they just humans? What about The Herta, Ruan Mei or Asta and Arlan? Is the HSR universe supposed to be like a peak of humanity thing or something or have the characters evolved past humanity?
