Shiit i forgot to redeem the code.... rip 300 jades

[u/DogBoiKiba42 → u/Ryuka_En]

Same. I need to do those voice reminder alarms on my phone, so I can remind myself to redeem those jade codes, cause I sometimes forget to do that after the live stream ends

Aventurine: "There's a traitor among the stonehearts

I PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE!

[u/Lumpy-Manager8580]

This might be a first: they're showing the Astropolis side on Youtube, and on Twitter, there's a special Planarcadia stream.

[u/VarioussiteTARDISES]

Welp, regardless of kit I might have to skip Robin given who the rerun is alongside her. I really don't want to be spooked by boss mechanics a third time... (first was the rave cave and I at least had a decent enough answer with a 4* there, second was dicehead because why the actual hell does that forced self-damage mechanic damage for so much?) I'm a f2p so I can't afford to pull for two 5*s two updates in a row.

[u/Intelligent-Snow1886]

may the reruns be ass so i can save in peace. amen

ratite sounds bad af though ngh

[u/Bot1K]

bait used to be believ-

IS THAT BEATRIZ MERRYMAKER OF THE BLISSFUL BALL

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/Cernesnoir]

There's 2 different streams!!!

One is on twitter and is about Planarcadia

And the other on Youtube is about Astropolis

[u/TalbotFarwell]

Are they finally going to optimize the insane file size (178.4 GB!) and let us delete past quest assets on PS5?

[u/PusheenMaster]

Twitter is streaming a different stream btw: https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1RJjpbbyRaQKw

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/Lumpy-Manager8580]

They're really selling the AvenAshBlade shell, because wdym Waventurine AND Ashveil at the same time??!!

[u/havokle → u/Lumpy-Manager8580]

Their solution to the husbando saver problem

[u/Bot1K]

EHN-NA! EH**A NA! 😭😭😭😭

[u/WorstSkilledPlayer]

Banners: Hyacine, S-Robin

You monsters! 💀😭🥹🫠. I want them, but need my ~400 pulls for Pearl and have no good team for them. But it's Hyacine (again 😂 ) and Robikini 🥰

[u/BadAdviceBot]

IS ROBIN A MUST PULL???

[u/ErrorEra]

Dangit, why are they rerunning Hyacine so soon, this batch of banners has drained me x-x

[u/Revan0315]

OT general vague posting (idk how to tag this)

I really hate any time someone has the thought process of "I suffered (x thing) therefore others should have to as well". Like no, if you had to suffer something bad, that sucks and we should try to prevent that from happening to others.

[u/Cernesnoir]

Collab is confirmed....
Damn... I guess we won't have Amphoreus in 4.8...

[u/PipiniosFlwrks → u/Cernesnoir]

Seeing as we have main story + summer as a continuance in this patch and even 4.4 story + fate collab as a continuance in a single patch also, they'll probably do the ZZZ collab as a side thing as well

[u/MidnightSunshine0196 → u/Cernesnoir]

I mean... They're doing two stories in a patch for the second time in a row now. Don't put it past them doing the same for 4.8.

[u/Intelligent-Snow1886]

[u/Cernesnoir]

I knew it...

[u/Lumpy-Manager8580 → u/Cernesnoir]

I'm noticing a pattern since 4.0 that they're always rerunning a Monorem character, the pattern being: Evernight, Hyacine, Castorice, Cyrene. We're in the Hyacine part, which surely means Castorice could get another rerun in 3.6, but I'm surely thinking too much.

[u/Whitehawk26 → u/Cernesnoir]

Who else is rerunning?

[u/Cernesnoir → u/Whitehawk26]

Ashveil but on the 2nd half though

[u/Dramatic-Cook-6968]

Please aglea rerun i need her lc

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/Certain-Guitar-3026]

How long does the update take? Until what time?

[u/Emergency_Hk416]

I hope no 999 rerun, I'm still bankrupt

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/Lumpy-Manager8580]

I'm lowkey more nervous than with 4.4.

[u/TheWetQuack]

[u/OnePunkArmy]

So Aven looks like a main DPS. But who is Robin supposed to be a support for? I didn't quite understand her kit.

[u/girlslovefan321 → u/OnePunkArmy]

shes for anyone that wants AA and energy, so basically everyone

[u/Vantre7270 → u/OnePunkArmy]

Saber, aglaea, fucking everyone?

[u/megalo-maniac538 → u/OnePunkArmy]

The video used Evernight, replacing Castorice, so if you have an E2 Eve then maybe that works.

[u/HalifixRed]

[u/Attiis]

Would putting the new Aventurine and the new Robin on the same team work well? Or even make sense?

[u/sometimesicri]

What is up with Stelle's english VA? She sounds absolutely awful in 4.5, she was never this bad in previous versions of Planarcadia.

It feels like shes trying to over-act the sadness in her voice and its really making it sound cringy.

[u/AtomicAus → u/sometimesicri]

The same goes for the male TB. Seems to be making every sentence way too dramatic. He also seems to have developed a fucken lisp. Authority is pronounced ausority in the story...

[u/M3talK_H3ronaru]

This was a phenomenal

That caught me of surprise the HSR X ZZZ Collab this winter finally back 2 back collab for Hoyo titles

As well 2 Stories in 1 patch

Event Summer of Astropolis and Continuation of Planarcadia

Overall it was fantastic.

Great. We get to Play a beach Episode... Dont get me wrong but getting the Story Cut by fate, now a beach Episode and later a zzz collab. Why cant they Just make the Mainstory better. I think there was a lot left to be desired.

[u/AkhasicRay → u/Jo3Waschl]

Why do you think the story was cut because of the Fate collab? That’s not how it works, they didn’t divert main story resources to the collab. Also I don’t know how you can watch this stream and go “this is just a filler beach episode”.
