I've been messing with evo portalcraft and, uh, it's a deck. Is it meta? Heck no. Is it good? Eh. Is it playable? It can win sometimes lol
It does still need some refining though, this iteration has been okay

oh hi i rolled credits
I found all the collectibles, not sure how much I want to grind to finish the cheevos (i'd have to trim 2+ hours off that total mission time 🥲) but I had fun. Story went harder than I expected. I think it's fun even if you don't follow holo but there's def a lot of references

I bought a Sworl at PAX. I've been excited for it ever since it was announced b/c I think it's a very interesting combo for having KB like controls while still having analog sticks.
I won't do FGs with it because I don't like mixbox layout for FGs but there are things I've been trying, like kaizo:

I tend to judge a character not by their strengths or playstyle but by much better metrics like "are they cute" and "can I make a custom palette based off of my ffxiv OC"

Yeah sometimes localizers just bring over the word as is and it's led to some awkward moments out of context

I'm not sure if practice mode got upgraded at some point so that you can start anywhere in the song or it was always there but it's been helping me get over my qualms with readability
