your lack of personal purpose is causing your romantic obsessions btw

Let's talk about the real purpose of doomposting, and who these videos are actually made for.

Every year, right before Genshin opens a new region, the same pattern repeats. Channels nobody has ever heard of appear out of nowhere with suspiciously high production value. Clean editing, pro thumbnails, confident narration. They introduce themselves "as a longtime Genshin player," then explain why the game has gone bad, why it's dying, why it's over.

Their points sound convincing for about thirty seconds, then collapse the moment you apply any actual thought, because the deeper these videos go, the more factually wrong they get.

These channels drop one or two videos, then vanish forever. And the exact same wave hits every local Hoyo creator scene at the same time. Different languages. Same talking points. Fully synchronized.

One guy doing this is an opinion. But when dozens of channels doing it, timed to every major content drop, then deleting themselves afterward. That's a planned, coordinated campaign.

And here's the part everyone misses:

Doomposting is not targeted at people who know the game. It's targeted at people who DON'T.

And it works.

I was on my friend's stream just earlier and he unironically asked me, "Do you still play Genshin? I heard it's dying." I told him the game is doing just fine. His answer: "huh, that's just what all the youtubers said."

He has never played Genshin. He has zero way to tell truth from lies. Every confident, well-produced video the algorithm fed him said the game is dead, so that became his reality. Most people accept the first thing they see and never look further. And even the ones who do? That first impression is already burned in. Doomposting doesn't need to convince YOU. It just needs to be the first thing a stranger sees.

In China, this tactic is called counter-marketing. You can't stop a competitor from advertising, but you CAN poison the algorithm around them. So when the new region trailer drops and a curious potential player searches the game, they get bombarded with "THE FALL OF" / "IT'S OVER" / "THE END OF" videos engineered to hook them in the first second. Every dollar your competitor spends on marketing now delivers fresh eyeballs straight into your wall of negativity. Traffic, redirected.

And whether it's the one-video ghost channels or the "creators" whose entire brand is built on slandering Hoyoverse, most of it grows from the same root, and that root has real money behind it. Paid corporate slander (黑公关, literally "black PR") is a billion-dollar industry in China, and it only became fully, explicitly illegal under the law last year. That's also likely why HoYoverse is now suing Bilibili, and going after creators who took sponsorships from account-selling companies and competitor games while pumping out anti-Hoyo slander for traffic.

So the next time a brand-new channel with a Hollywood budget shows up two weeks before a region launch to inform you that one of the biggest live-service games on the planet is "dying," ask yourself one question:

Who was this video actually made for?
It's for People who's never played. It's for people who's just become interested. And it already working on them.

@mualaniparty enemies can have different elemental res, though sandrone can trigger and deal damage of both reactions, her damage is still ultimately cryo. She cannot deal with cryo slime, Vesna and Mizuki can

Google is shutting down GIF provider Tenor’s public API at some point today, June 30th.

Apps that rely on the public API to source GIFs will lose direct access to Tenor’s library.

@wraxui ah i see thank you, now it confuses me as to what's the point in building ATK on Remielle if neither her mutation nor luminize take her ATK stat into account, that w-engine substat and her disc 2pcs effect still bugs me 🤔

[🌱Clair is Waiting for Mitya 🇵🇸💜 @blumengerti]

@zenlesszoneleak still needs confirmation whether lumen char can trigger the stolen element's anomaly

[🌱Clair is Waiting for Mitya 🇵🇸💜 @blumengerti]

@zenlesszoneleak tl;dr lumen & remielle's core:
- lumen steals the element dmg of char to the right
- lumen mutates other anomaly state, increase the dmg based on mutation coeff & lumen's anomaly pool

- remielle stores 3 latest instances of mutated anomaly and fires them through skills.

Muslim concern ke kelompok marginal anak luar nikah, perempuan, perempuan pekerja seks, lgbtq+ langsung dicap “diragukan keislamannya”, eh, giliran ke penjahat HAM jadi ayam sayur “ibadahnya antara dia & Tuhan, jangan demo, firaun aja gak didemo🥺”. Buzzer makan taik.

This person is right. Disabled people, like queer people, is seen as an "other". Kita sama2 diobjektifikasi, sama2 ditindas, sama2 ga punya hak yg setara di masyarakat. To fight for queer rights is to fight for disabled rights is to fight for all marginalized identities
