It's almost impossible to lose in this update. Knocked out Zani? IMBA. Didn't knock him out? 100% guarantee for Chakkona, Jinshi, Chanli, Charlotte and others in rerun. Well, that's imba. If the chain guarantees are common.
Eh, Brant, it's too early, I hope I'll save up😢
There are 10-20 spins left on the leg. I pray for Zani. I won't spin Signa (I have Signa Yao). I'll spend the rest on Phoebe and save up Cortephia.
Quite a big update... The rewards are so-so, but there are a lot of events and reruns. I hope to get Zani and Phoebe. I wanted to take Brant because of the waifu factor, but he doesn't fit my squads.
170 spins for f2p send you on foot erotic. Say thank you that they don't feed you shit like in gayshite with their 60 spins for a patch, lol
I wonder if wuva will be free on steam
There will be a Knish, why shouldn't there be?
Yes, the game is free in all stores, but paid on Steam.
I wonder if the guarantee for banners with reruns is separate or common for the event banner? I'm interested in weapons
There is no Russian, there is no me in the game and my money.
what a loss for wuva
If it were in Russian, it would be a fairy tale, oh, dreams, dreams. A lousy Russifier and on-screen translations are not the same, I want the original edition. What's the problem with ing Russian subtitles, which even a neural network can handle and asg one person to check. As if Russian speakers only live in Russia?
Because if you add Russian, you'll have to add other languages, too, and that's not a job for just one person. And no company in its right mind would use machine translation.
Kuro is not a small indie company, even though Wuwa doesn't outpace Hoyo in earnings, it's still big money. What's the problem with hiring several translators?
Firstly, it won't be necessary, you can add one Russian language, because the demand is huge. Secondly, what's the problem with adding a couple more languages?
I'm still leaning towards the agenda
Gashnya Russik was released before the war, so it would be absurd to cancel it.
But all sorts of beznki with their senseless remasters did not miss the opportunity to demonstrate their attitude towards us
What is this farting in a puddle for?) And what attitude is he demonstrating by releasing a new Doom with full Russian localization?)
Are you aware that the original Oblivion also doesn't have a Russian localization on Steam?) Haven't you thought that the snag could be somewhere else?) And anyway, the remaster was made by "virtuosos", not Bethesda itself. Let's start with that at least.
just to get pinched! It doesn't matter what, right?:)
and what about the KhSR, which came out in 23 and has Russian language? Did they live there without a summons?
That is, if I want to come back, I have to do it after the update is released?
better now, because as compensation they give 10 standard, 10 event and 10 weapon spins🤔🤔
The last 10 weapons will be issued tomorrow
But they will hang until 2.4
