Full Rainbow team in CC is topkek. (Got lucky yay)

I'll just say I quite liked the way the devs used the OD event (and R6 bios) as an opportunity to discuss the oft-hinted-elsewhere differences in the technological paradigm etc. in a narratively organic fashion that doesn't come across as a pure infodump.

^^yes, just to give one example I could quickly find. Used to be fairly common in the past too when pepper (as with other Far Eastern spices) was still an expensive and exotic import saved for special occasions. Although the "pepper" referenced in the traditional Nordic variety of gingerbread pepperkakor is the unrelated but similar-looking allspice - that one's Caribbean kin to the clove and myrtle.

I have a suspicion Ms. Tong's personal preferences might have leaked a bit into the ikemen makeover she gave her daughter.

I hate to burst everybody's bubble, but don't the "don't hang out with anybody else" and "I won't hang out with anybody else either" sound kinda ominous?

P sure those are what's teknik'ly known as "reassuring platitudes" rather than solemn declarations of serious intent...

Funfact: Jupiter is actually only about middling size as gas giants go; the things can go up to about 13 times its mass before turning into brown dwarves (the specifics of the cutoff are subject to debate)

Funfact #2: due to gravitational compression the dimensions of gas giants stay very similar over quite wide mass ranges (eg. Jupiter and Saturn are close to the same radius - ca. 11.5 vs. 9.5 Earths at equator - despite the latter having only ~30% of the former's mass), though thermal expansion can disproportionately "puff up" "hot Jupiters" orbiting close to their stars

I would love a whole chapter that's just Sakuma trying on new glasses.

...wouldn't that just be the glasses fetish version of the Obligatory Swimsuit Episode tho?

Other than USE YOUR RESIN, not that I can think of. Game's thankfully devoid of newbie traps. Also Condensed Resin is your friend because it cuts the number of times you need to run Domains and whatnots by about half - those start getting pretty tedious before long, as such things are wont to.

There's actually one thing you should watch out for - upgrading your Adventurer Rank and World Level, because the latter determines openworld enemy levels. In particular be careful of going into the stretches where where World Level upgrades without a quest, because those can leave you unpleasantly underleveled. I-it's not like I'm speaking from experience or anything... orz

Though the option to drop your WL by one they added some time ago should help a lot there. (It wasn't yet in back when I messed this bit up.)

Glad to hear it, I've been using my resin up whenever I play so I guess I've been doing that right at least. I'm still figuring out what, exactly Domains are all about. They seem like dungeons, basically? Also that, uh, spiral abyss place? I did three floors of that and it seems like it's just a gauntlet of challenge fights.

Yeah, Domains are mostly mini-dungeons where you farm for Artifacts (essentially your gear) and various upgrade materials for skills and weapons. There's also ones that form short self-contained "dungeon crawls" that just give you set rewards from clearing once.

If you're familiar with Honkai the Spiral Abyss is broadly the equivalent of the Memorial Arena though structured and scheduled differently. Too much sweaty_speedrunner.mpg tryharding in the later levels for my taste but endgame Youtuber types tend to use them for experimenting with characters and builds.

Things like loot sharing and other common points of conflict.

Near as I'm aware (foreveralone.jpg type of MMO player here) drops are per player so no worries about stealing the other guy's shinies.

Are the weapon banners worth doing though?

Pretty sure those are considered bad, badder, even worse unless you're a big-spender whale.

I tend to play at my own pace, so I'm not too concerned with being efficient at farming or whatever, but are there any pitfalls I should know about in advance?

Got Baal and C1 Sara in about 40 pulls, nice. Might have hit pity there as a legacy of the pulls on Yoimiya's banner. (Also a bunch of Xianling dupes but I've had her at max con for some time now...) Means I can start saving up for Kokomi in the hopes of being able to create a meme "Kok and Baal Torture" team... :v

On another note Sara's specialty food (egg roll) has "gay for boss" written all over it.
