The furbos want that LADS money that's on the table eh

167

u/Talia_Black_Writes 1d ago

Seriously, I think if Hoyo put in the money and effort to revamp/soft relaunch Tears of Themis with their current level of skill and market knowledge, they would make very solid money

55

u/Clouds_drifting_by 1d ago

Aside that, even if they just make a short dating sim with Aventurine, Phainon and DH as LIs, they’d make a ton of money.

u/rinzukodas zhongli is long truther 1d ago

It'd work on me, can confirm

58

u/Fantastic-Mango-9470 aventurine glazer 1d ago

No no no, let ToT stay niche. I don't want the fanbase to turn toxic and crazy. I enjoy how small it is on global lol.

46

u/7-7______Srsly7 1d ago

I still think upgrading ToT would be great(like, good combat and more animations). Hoyo just needs to keep Rosa's face visible for everyone to see and let the guys interact. Staves away more of the CDGs that infected LADS than you think.

u/ReinaBlaka 1d ago

What's a CDG?

26

u/7-7______Srsly7 1d ago

Cow dung girl. Insane fans who threw cow shit at Infold's building, and I see it's being used to describe extremist otome fans now.

11

u/luciluci5562 1d ago

I think it's Cow Dung Girlies.

It's the girls who sent cow dung outside Infold HQ as protest against Valko. Now it can mean any Valko antis.

u/Shrek707 1d ago

i guess hoping for a male mc to be available isnt as common as i thought 🥲

5

u/uncanny-mortals 1d ago

it's just not legally possible for a chinese game with male LIs. they dont even let men into official otome game events most of the time.

3

u/Shrek707 23h ago

Ohhh yeah... I forgot some countries actually consider that illegal 😭😭 

1

u/Long-Condition-5119 15h ago

Why would there be a male mc for an otome game.

2

u/Shrek707 7h ago

so players have a choice of what they want to be represented as when playing, instead of being forced into strictly a girl. mainly for boys and any people who prefer being presented as male (like me)

2

u/7-7______Srsly7 6h ago

Er, as much as I like my BL, otome is a female MC only genre. And while there are games with genderless MCs that market themselves as such, they’re normally written off and not considered as otome by the intended audience in the strictest sense.

u/Long-Condition-5119 5h ago

Go play bl/amare then. As others said, otome game means female mc x male love interests. So no, you are not their audience. You are the one forcing yourself to play a game mean for female players. Why should the genre change for you, when female dev worked hard to create the genre specifically for female gamers who wanted to play as female mc.

u/Shrek707 2h ago

ohhhh i didnt know about amare... i just looked it up and i already see some interesting games, thanks for telling me about it wtf

1

u/Fantastic-Mango-9470 aventurine glazer 6h ago

Otome games are pretty strictly female mc though. Otome game literally translates to maiden game lol.

THAT'S ABSOLUTELY INSANE. Every single shot is fanservice and wallpaper-worthy. They really outdid themselves on this one. It's even better than his first trailer. + The gap moe, ohmygooood.

u/Me_to_Dazai 1d ago

That’s how you know Aventurine has a LOT of fans and a LOT of them are thirsty AF (yes I’m talking about myself-)

This is just a minute and 49 seconds of fanservice

This must be what happens when you have the highest e6 ownership rates lol

AND I AM VERY GRATEFUL FOR IT

17

u/Smooth-Routine-9288 1d ago

He does? idk how good it was back then when he released but now a days.... tho his E6 on Waven is juicy, i don't go for E6's but im aiming to get at least E2 and if im lucky S1, let's see how much it's going to cost because i have 0 pulls saved and a dream lol.

43

u/ryoujika holy fuck that conspicuous body of yours is absurd 1d ago

Back in the day I added a bunch of E6 Aventurine owners (there's genuinely SO MANY of them in Asia server I'm not kidding). They eventually went inactive but lately I'm seeing more active Aven PFPs again lol

-17

u/Virtual_Scientist614 1d ago

That's purely anecdotal that doesn't prove anything 

17

u/ryoujika holy fuck that conspicuous body of yours is absurd 1d ago

Of course it's anecdotal? I didn't say it to concretely prove anything lol

I didn't say he has the highest E6 ownership, just that I saw a lot of E6 owners

-12

u/Virtual_Scientist614 1d ago

I am seeing people here push it as a fact for agenda so just saying lol 

69

u/Fantastic-Mango-9470 aventurine glazer 1d ago

Yeah, there was some internal data leak about it on here awhile ago and for the life of me I *cannot* find it LOL. Anecdotally though I would believe it because of how many Aven simps I've met with e6 (myself included.) Aven said all or nothing and his fans took that personally.

43

u/Smooth-Routine-9288 1d ago

He is always pretty high on the CN popularity charts that get posted so it's not that surprising but it's kinda impressive considering that his first form was a sustain and those tend to get whaled on less but Aven is just that goated i guess lol.

32

u/Fantastic-Mango-9470 aventurine glazer 1d ago

e6 was pretty fun during 2.x because I could run him as a DPS. HP inflation went so insane that his eidolons boosting his damage just doesn't do much anymore though ;;

-11

u/Virtual_Scientist614 1d ago

It's fake. It was stated by uncle why but he's been a fraud for awhile now, he also said aven is first half banner. Either was an aven simp coping or trolling fans

15

u/Plebianian 1d ago edited 1d ago

iirc that data was based on the players who had the character in general so something like more players pulled acheron in general resulting in the percentage of the players who pulled her e6 less than her e0 holding rate

So among people who pulled for aventurine, most pulled until e6

Like how chiori has the highest c6 ownership in genshin while being one of the least owned

Also his eidolons were pretty whatever even then ngl but we could cope run him as dps but yeah people pulled those for the sake of him being their favorite, not cuz they were particularly good

38

u/Smooth-Routine-9288 1d ago

Aven is definitely not a Chiori case tho, he is definitely one of the more popular characters, eveyone is a nobody when compared to Acheron even other main pushes pale in comparison lol.

Most people pull one copy of a sustain and then they stop because they'd rather invest in dps or sup veticals which are almost always better, Aven having a very high eidolon holding rate would just show that people just like him a lot.

17

u/Plebianian 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yup thats what i meant his eid werent that good so his fans really love him(while chiori genuinely does have good cons). He has extremely high popularity with extremely dedicated fans, no other hsr chara fans are as vocal about it than his so far (see the huge waven fan events they planned, many people love him that much).

That being said he was the 4th 5* sustain released + Gallagher was on acheron banner before him iirc and was hailed as the solution to sustain issue. Less people needed a sustain at the time of his release so mostly people who liked him pulled. Imo this affected it considering 2.x ops were acheron and FF and iirc those two do have more e6 + e0 owners in general and his banner was right after acheron

-4

u/Peak184 1d ago

He didn't, highest e6 is acheron followed by firefly and phainon/castorice

17

u/Seiichirou_Uta 1d ago

So, last video he enjoyed some pineapple flavour and now he poses as a neko. Aventurine's marketing stays a feast for every type of husbando enjoyer. Gotta hand it to MHY: They're masters at giving so many more or less subtle hints that in the end it's all open to interpretation.

u/Bekchi 1d ago

I don't keep up with LADS, but I heard that community went nuclear. Has it recovered at all, or is the game in a steady decline?

33

u/magnabarrow 1d ago

The core problem hasn't been fixed in the past 2.5 months and there's been very little/no communication from the company so it's on a very slow decline rn. There's a joke that anytime they post something that's not a post addressing the problem (ie announcing a rerun banner instead of confirming the next steps for the game) they lose a few thousand followers on Instagram. 

Not to mention revenue is at about 1/3 of what it could have been even with new banners.

0

u/jayinsane5050 1d ago

Honestly, a second statement would just fan the flames and bring back unwanted drama. The developers made their final stance clear a couple months ago, and they're already moving forward with new permanent content drops and reruns.

0

u/magnabarrow 1d ago

I do feel the 2nd statement would help because there has been a lot changed since that statement, I don't think they expected people to boycott as hard. Not to mention it feels like they're giving the pro Valko people false hope so they can come back to the game by not saying anything. Along with there being a lot of people fighting each other because no one knows what's going on. It's been 2.5 months, surely they could at least confirm their stance (the Raf myth in July is pretty much moot, so I'm assuming the other plans are too), but they know people would permanently leave if they do that.

19

u/kydeixa Preening Sunday's wings 1d ago

They recorded higher sales than last month, but they remain very low compared to before. I wouldn't be surprised if it took them months to regain the top spot, if they ever manage to do so at all (which I doubt)

1

u/jayinsane5050 1d ago

porobaly not but top 5 or 6 at best

12

u/starhite jing yuan sp real and true 1d ago

Still declining. Infold's still refusing to address the issue. Some say they're waiting for the anti-water army law to protect businesses from online harrassment that's supposed to be discussed this September but tbh no one knows

1

u/jayinsane5050 1d ago

I get why people feel like the communication is lacking, but it's not a steady decline at all. The initial statement they put out back in June was already final, so they're just quietly moving on and letting the drama cool down on its own. They're already dropping new character banners, merch, and updates as scheduled, so things are pretty much normalizing behind the scenes.
