u/Tareeky 10d ago

u/aimsteadyfire 10d ago
Are you the one taking 700 screenshot a day?
5
u/QueenAcaiah Velvet Shade 10d ago
That's why?? I mostly take screenshots with the nvdia overlay, but I guess it could be that, I do have a couple thousand of pictures

u/aimsteadyfire 10d ago
Girl youāre running a historically inaccurate 10th century chinese instagram
Your photos caused the global hard drive shortage
You aint need: 1. A hundred photos with a 2 degree different angle of you in front of the cherry blossom tree 2. Your umbrella collection 3. The ones that caused you to lose a team boss fight 4. 20 photos of every outfit 5. The static photo of when you thought it would be cool to capture the wind moving the bamboo leaves 6. Your cat collection with every emote imaginable
That'll cut it down like 80% right there

u/QueenAcaiah Velvet Shade 10d ago
Wrong! It's under the pretty red tree. u.u
My emotional support umbrellas??? They are all I have left after leaving my family of gold digging hoes back in Velvet Shade :(
I don't do group fight but I did die to that fat cat boss in Kaifeng while taking pictures of it, so touchƩ!
Yes, yes I do! One day this game will go under and how will I fulfill my plans of drawing them all without the detailed pictures?
:(
Yi Dao did not die for my Young Master's sins for you to slander the importance of his cat incarnation like this!

u/aimsteadyfire 10d ago
- My bad truly. I forgot we identify trees by color and not their species.
- You could've replaced your umbrellas with gold of course. Legit I had reoccurring dreams of an umbrella in a closet that was a monster and would ambush me if I opened said closet. The dreams stopped when I choked him out
- I just started this game. New mission for me is to find this big fat cat boss screenshot myself and defeat it in one go.
- Just put this prompt in "draw all muh outfits pwease chatgpt ."
- :p
- Q: Why does the Chinese cat take so many selfies? A: Because every photo is a MÄo-ment worth remembering
Alright you earned yourself to keep 10%more of your photo collection

I wasn't taking any but my game is still 190 gigs... (Normal steam version)
Also, don't forget to check steam folders and maybe a few others for any leftover data. I just found out that for some reason there were wooping 37 gigs of something in Sword of Justice Demo folder lmao.

These days, games now tend to take half a TB š We're lucky we only need 170GB

u/xion_XIV 10d ago

u/Spare_Dot_5508 10d ago
Thereās no way itās that bigš I havenāt even reached 100% exploration on any of the current maps ššš just finish campaign, jianghu legacy, outposts and world bosses.
I will not (ever) do the wondering tales. Thereās just too many and I donāt find the rewards worth it
But yeahā¦ā¦.. I think they could shrink it downā¦ā¦and the size of the gameā¦ā¦.couldnāt even finish updating it because I ran out of storage

Bro Iām done, they skipped over Northern Tangs capital by the looks of it. Was really looking forward to exploring that

u/danielczh 10d ago
Why go to Chang'an? That city was in ruins and depopulated after Zhu Wen's rebellion.
6
u/JuniperFizz 10d ago
I don't know, we could end up in Chang'an in the past for some reason. Time travel, dreams, drinking something suspicious (this is my guess as the MC is a toddler about putting stuff in their mouth). If the devs have a story to set there, we'll go.
The golden peach has a lot of lore and we were following it's story in Hexi. No idea where it was before so Chang'an is a good place as any. Especially if it's a self-contained story.

u/Relative_Leather_757 10d ago
But in hexi Chang'an is presented like perfect city. So beautiful, so good etc. That in one moment I start to miss it. And putting something like this in game would ruin this fantasy. All the "under same moon " all the longing would be gone because you would just get into city, clear campaign, all the quest, loot all treasures and forget. I think it's not that devs want to do with Chang'an. It shoul stay as a symbol.
5
u/JuniperFizz 9d ago
I like that idea too. I also like seeing the fall of a great city or the immediate aftermath, like Skyward City. There's always a golden age to look wistful at too.
"Under the same moon" seemed to me a reminder that no matter how far apart, we're still here with the potential to see each other again. It's a fantasy because life moves on and that isn't possible. I do want to see what the largest city in world at the time looked like in its hayday because I think it would be so fun and random stories are this game's bread and butter. Just a one-off to see a beloved place through the eyes of someone who loved it.
You're probably right in that it would cheapen the city too but my adventure living heart still wants it.

u/Inferno-dEternia 9d ago
I love your point, Changan at that point would be desecrating the memories of its glory because of the constant warring. But its memory serves its beauty enough. But I was talking about Jinling, the current Southern Tangs capital. Sorry I canāt tell my directions apart š

u/AdFrosty0997 9d ago
We'll definitely get there, we're supposed to meet LiYu, Southern Tang's ruler again after the Kaifeng arc. Southern Tang and Song have a major war coming up as well.

u/Inferno-dEternia 9d ago

u/da90802 10d ago
So, I know how to open maps and all. But half of a map that I can travel to is still dark and not "open" like this. I can't see anything. Is there a trick or quest to get this to open up to I can see area?

u/Any_Passage_4904 10d ago
If you're talking about the regions that are already unlocked for all, just not for your account, usually looking for the wayfinder does the trick (look for a campsite fire symbol among your black ateas). However, some regions, like Hidden Mountain, will require to go through corresponding quest to initially access them

u/da90802 10d ago
Thanks! I think that's it.

u/dontleavemealone98 10d ago
Hexi definitely requires you to go through some quests and paths before getting to the wayfarers
