The bleeding eyes is how I often feel too trying to understand the fight mechanics.

A nice spread of all the doll types that have been released.

I don't play with these types of beads, but my friend likes them, and I think the patterns people share are very fun.

One thing about Mihoyo is that their bonuses are not very generous; the limit per order is super low, only choose one in the category, even if you buy a flat to guarantee a special version figurine (12 boxes of eight 6624r). On the other haand, For All Time is too generous with bonus items. 🤣

Although it is hard to know when only the blueprint is given on the official page, sharing AI generated images of what the dolls "could look like" is even more misleading. 😮‍💨 You can send the same blueprint to different factories and get very different dolls, so it is pointless.

Ah, the little white fox is so hard to resist.

That's a pretty good line. 😂

Attending a ballet with a friend. I've not seen much of this contemporary style before.

Wow~ so handsome haha. His stupid voices are actually very good.

I also saw a pretty jade pendant, although it was really aventurine and not jade. Because my jade bracelets always break, maybe I'm not meant to carry jade.

Pervert rabbit knows how to make a creepy entrance. This event is enjoyable, but it feels like you need money for stamina and still money for the mausoleum intelligence books. Ah, and the banners. 😩

This seems like it could be fun. I'm not really the type to play board games though. 🤔

He does sinister but cute very well.

My sister found Illusion of Itehari unsatisfying. Well, we are related haha.

Normally, they still put everyone's image when you are ordering, but this time they didn't. I put Himeru at first and looked at the cart and was shocked. 😅😅😅 Why so lazy, make more images! Haha

From things I see online, it seems like so many places are very accepting of AI translation for their English language products. Although I used to think it is nice to buy English translations to show support, I haven't been confident buying anything recently...

Doof.

More expensive than the dolls and still a trading item. Terrible. 🫠

Terrible haha. That one isn't as bad as some of mine, but the picture is too powerful.

So cute. I can't stand farming though.

Ah, so many otome games just make you feel sad. I guess sadness and anger are the easiest feelings to evoke with writing. Plot lines need to torture us to tears so that we feel closer to the characters. 🤣

The idea of giving your voice sample so that the MC can be voiced in your own voice via AI is... very creepy to me. I dislike MC customization in most games, and this type of personal information usage for it seems rather risky.

I didn't notice that big bird and little bird synchronized for this banner. Isn't the mainland server still two years behind?

Hmm hmm, I know horror romance is a blurry line, but I think this plot line doesn't count as very romantic. MC stalked by ML > MC accidentally kills ML trying to get away > MC "resurrects" ML (actually parasites) > ML kills all of MC's family and friends > MC follows ML to be consumed by parasites

This game is always staying so close to web novels. I suppose that's its niche; it's appealing because it feels familiar?

So frightening. 😂 Black is a little less scary... maybe...

Personally, I find their recessed eyes very creeepy, but I think my friend would love it, so maybe I will get her an angel and devil. Two on a bag would probably be cuter as a pair.

I didn't expect this, but I guess it is the most (profitable) satisfying.

This game is definitely watching the community and knows the memes. 🤣 He's fighting for his life...

Merchandise: Commission clay doll Creator: @chibipop.bsky.social Game: For All Time Character: Ye Xuan Note: ~10cm. I think my phone camera is always getting worse, so know that it is more beautiful and intricate than can be seen in my photos. 🥰

These sheep and leopard are really cute.

Good night, sweet prince: and feets of angels stomp thee to thy rest. 🐶

Black Lotus' printing looks good. Apparently, it was adapted into a drama last year, Love Game in Eastern Fantasy? I wonder if it's fun to watch.

Looking at physical books, this one is also very pretty looking. Maybe I will give it a try. I do love fox demon girls.

This book always stands out in my mind because it is one of the few times that I first had only seen fan art and people talking before reading the book. Ah, the expectations and reality were so different. 😅 Whether that's good or bad, I'm not sure, but certainly I felt a bit misled.

!!! That's the world's most perfect lenticular design...

Everyone making plastic-faced dolls. 🥲

These For All Time shikishi have a message that you can only see if you take them out of their holder because it is printed matte against the shiny surface. Very cute touch.

Sun Quan is so tempting. I think his face shape looks very similar to Hua Cheng though. 🤔 The painting on Hua Cheng's face is very dark and bloodless--well, he's dead--which makes Sun Quan an appealing little brother.

It's strong energy.

These ones have pretty good expressions and ear shape.

Although I don't like his birthday outfit, at least his doll figure will be cute. 🙏

A funny misunderstanding that happens to me frequently is when someone says they enjoy historical themed stories, and I think think they mean like the left (Romance of the Three Kingdoms), but they really mean like the right (Journey to the West).

Pink haired Sun Quan is pretty! The Sun Quan plot in Ashes of the Kingdom that I read today was a bit embarrassing, so I stopped playing for a bit. 😅😅😅

Knights is looking very strange recently. 😂😂😂😂

I don't prefer this type of acrylic calendar with loose shaker items where you have to switch the sheet. The small pieces make it difficult to pull the sheets out to me. It is nice that there is a mini calendar this time though. Although... I dislike ancient Egyptian themes, so probably pass.
