@WhereWindsMeet_ I use the launcher and it’s stuck on “Cleaning” and won’t progress at all or let me launch the game. Been like this for 30+ mins. I tried to go to the account center for help and it’s returning an error. Any help? I’d love to play the new update!

@RyuukuSensei This is such a great thing to do, appreciate you taking time to connect with VAs from 1.0 too! People complains about Lingyang on the banner but it comes from a place of loving frustration 😆 I hope he has a chance to come back, a traveling lion troupe dance cameo in Huanglong…

@PaulTassi that it's "fake" for them, and that the videogames industry is doing some kind of secret illuminati thing and that games journalism is once again the villain/accessible punching bag for them to focus their ire on.

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@PaulTassi -loves conspiracy because it let's them feel righteously angry and like there's a single smoking gun to whatever issue of the month they're frustrated with. It makes me think of Gamergate to a degree. Criticism about the game's authenticity is like, not a craft issue but a sign--

@erin_yvette OMG QUEEN you are SO AMAZING you bring Cissia to life so amazingly that she’s become one of my favorite characters in all of ZZZ!!! I want Cissia in every patch forever now because I’ll never get tired of how good her writing and voice is!!!

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@NFerare -for so long, it's been really wonderful learning more about them from voice actors around the games I love and realizing how their teamwork makes the dream work!

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@NFerare Absolutely! Every big project is the work of so many wonderful and talented people, I just really appreciate how deeply necessary voice actors are, and the excellence that comes from devoting yourself to that particular art. Voice directors have felt like unsung heroes to me-

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@mollozhang @AKEndfield It was so exciting to hear these in-game! I love that Hypergryph’s dub team is doing so much with accents and multilingual VAs. It lets actors express themselves in really interesting ways and I think it’s great for the English-speaking audience to appreciate language & voices.

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@amanda_rischel I think fans always assume familiarity is a virtue, but I’m always fascinated by how actors can do such great job at like intuiting where the emphasis should be or how to talk about certain things so well when they don’t know the details. It’s a testament to their skills!

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@amanda_rischel This is a sort of weird one, but have you or any other VAs found familiarity with the property you’re working on making it harder to work on it? Or maybe a different phrasing, how does it feel to be familiar with a project you’re working on already versus going in blind as a VA?

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@AphyTaffy @DanielPinho95 -this sounds melodramatic but I think in an indirect way this is the sort of blind spot that’s a stronger EOS predictor than other stuff, because the fact that it made it to launch like this means there were so many points where they could’ve rectified it and didn’t.

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@AphyTaffy @DanielPinho95 I feel like we’re all so used to having to like read against the grain and find our queer love for these characters in spite of the games themselves. It’s just insult to injury to go out of their way in NOT designing any of these features to accommodate male characters. I know-

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@AphyTaffy @DanielPinho95 Not to mention it’s actually like THEEE most consistent market! When you do good male characters and great relationships PEOPLE SHOW UP!!!

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@AphyTaffy @DanielPinho95 Like I’m a lesbian player and this just gives me the ick because it makes it clear they’re just not actually interested in women’s perspectives or men likers of any kind. I don’t trust that kind of developer to do a good job with the girls either!

[VioletDreamer, Queen of Fangs @viodreamer]

@AphyTaffy @DanielPinho95 This is just SO self-destructive and stupid it is literally leaving money and fandom on the table and every game dumb enough to do this is like suicidal in a live-service market driven by character fandom and engagement.
