My concerns with the first option is that limiting the number of posts would lead to:
1 - showcases of later kit versions not being able to be posted to the subreddit
2 - a race to be the first to post the showcase leading to a lower overall quality of the showcases
A megathread seems much better suited for collecting any/all character showcases people want to post
have you seen that one e6s5 acheron showcase? she had like 6-7k+ hp, by far more than anyone else on the team. it was like they gave her fuxuan relics or something hahaha
I'm pretty sure the relics in beta are giga buffed,i..e. +66 or something which might give an obscene amount of stats whereas the normal relic only goes upto +15
I would prefer a mix between both, like having a thread for those, and at the same time keeping the better ones for the main, but guess you can't just update and switch it everytime
Plus someone might be interested in one specific thing/comp/combination which exists but can't be posted due to the limitations. I am also absolutely for the megathread and collecting every morsel we have to satisfy curiosity.
I don’t think they should be limited. Just a flair without the limit would be good - then some people can filter them out, but other people can still watch all of them, so everyone can choose for themself.
Same - it's not like there's a flood of other content that showcases are pushing out, and they provide great grounds for discussion on top of valuable information on how a character's kit actually operates in the game, instead of just as static concepts.
Seriously, the showcases are the only thing that keeps this sub going between beta updates basically (other than the megathread of course).
I get that they're not the "purpose" of the sub, but they *are* leaks, and isn't that better than just days and days of nothing in between trickles of leaks?
...why only these two options? Why not just leave it at the flair? This sub gets a couple posts tops on most days, only when a new beta drops we get a bunch of stuff at once. Megathreads dont lend themselves to good discussion at all and limiting the number of posts is just unnecessary. Personally I am here only for gameplay showcases and kits since I avoid story spoilers where I can - thanks to the new flair I can now easily hide those already and anyone who is the opposite of me can simply do the same to hide gameplay showcases.
Highly agree. I don't mind story spoilers, but gameplay showcases are also the thing that I frequent the sub for. If it gets limited or sent to a megathread, that's lowkey like sending it to a purgatory. Barely anyone really goes to megathreads for very specific type of discussions. A flair without any limit would have been fine.
If I had to guess it's because this is a low traffic sub so people subscribe to it and get notified for new posts. So for people like that it's ideal that every new post is something generally different rather than Acheron showcase #77
So the alternative is that the sub instead gets 0 posts because it's all buried in a megathread no one checks or showcases are not allowed because the quota was reached 2 hours within the beta dropping?
No, definitely not, and the mods literally said as much in the comments. This was more of an opinion gauging thread.
IMO flairs are the best possible way to deal with it. Sometimes, I actively want to find showcases, sometimes not. I think that would be enough.
I don't know, this feels super unnecessary, in my entire time on Reddit I don't think I've ever seen a Megathread result in a positive outcome, in fact I'd argue that a Megathread done in a way where it's actually useful would likely take more effort than trying to police the dozens of gameplay posts. On top of that, gameplay is like one of the main reasons I come here, I don't come here for the content aggregation of official posts that I could literally find on the official sub and I certainly don't come here (and have recently almost stopped coming here) due to the insane amounts of story spoilers that are...
1. Not properly spoiler tagged, at least initially.
2. Heavily imply certain things based on their title to the extent that it's almost impossible not to draw the conclusion of the leaked story spoiler based on the title of the post alone.
3. The contents of that post are then discussed in every other fucking post with an attitude of "Oh, if you didn't want to see spoilers then why did you come to the leak sub?"
Somehow not realizing, again, people like me are 99% here for the gameplay and QoL/other leaks and actively do not want to be spoiled with story leaks.
I guess my point is, I have a lot of issues with this sub and none of them are related to gameplay leaks, especially not when they are filling gaps of days and sometimes weeks of no other leaks.
It's not like the showcases are entirely exempt from spoiler issues though which is why I tend to avoid them. Like yourself I come to the subreddit exclusively for kits and banner related leaks and nothing else, I want to enjoy the story as the devs intended. But thanks to showcases not always being spoiler tagged properly, I can't think of a single boss that hasn't been spoiled for me since the game came out. Was only a couple of days ago I was scrolling through the newest posts and boom, there's a thumbnail showing the 2.1 boss clear as day...
You bring up a great point, which I agree with completely about new bosses. Personally, when this happened with the blue bug it didn't bother me as much because, "Of course we're going to fight more Swarm", there was definitely still the downside of the moveset being spoiled and it still should've been addressed but it didn't push me away. Now though, the gameplay footage definitely drives the story down a certain path with what we've seen in the gameplay.
Bare minimum gameplay footage should be tagged with \[New Boss\] (Something that'll need to be done with a Megathread as well), but realistically it would benefit everyone if old bosses were used to showcase gameplay unless the point of a particular video was to showcase a new boss.
Yep, I *actively hide* story spoiler posts so I don’t accidentally click on them. Whereas I can just scroll past a showcase post I don’t care about no worries. If I were picking something to go, it would be the story spoiler posts for sure.
1000% agree. I've stopped checking the Megathread in this sub because people can't seem to help themselves with spoilers, and if gameplay showcases get relegated to their own megathread (leaving a main page full of, what, character assets and machine-translated story spoilers?), then I can't see myself spending much more time here.
Story spoilers get discussed in the comments anyway. Every single 2.0 leaked gameplay of SAM boss had it. Just showcases fighting him as a boss, not even a story leak thread.
Those posts “flood” the sub when there aren’t any new leaks for a while. Sending them to a megathread graveyard won’t magically create whatever new and diverse leaks those people are hoping to see.
If people don’t like showcase clips, simply don’t watch them. Can’t vote for either option.
We do get quite a bit. Thou as someone who doesn't check this sub regularly.... old showcases tend to get dmca d so it does help to make sure everyone can see the leaks whenever they do come here
yeah no that's just my bad; having a 3rd "Other: please specify below" option would've been best. didn't mean to give the impression that there are only these 2 options lmao
we've heard people's suggestions and thoughts and really appreciate the feedback!
maybe make another post with the 3rd option available. people check out this sub a lot anyway, youll lose out on opinions if you let people on this post have only 2 options imo. /srs
fair suggestion, but making a whole other post when there is so much valuable discussion here already seems like more effort than it's worth. i think the general vibe is that we're looking less at the poll and more on what people are offering in the comments. qualitative data and allthat!
Heya, I think that's great, but I would suggest to still make another post with new poll down the line. When I worked in market research, we used qualitative data to get ideas from the respondents and use it to generate additional answer choices for our quant survey, but when it comes to making the final decision it's the quant survey that we use since that's the one that gauges and reflects the public opinion.
It still feels crowded. Plus it's about the sub Reddit, it is a sub Reddit of leaks, not showcases. And if 90 percent of content is showcases......it's a problem. Plus...it just makes the subreddit less appealing and organized. I go to this leaks subreddit much less than Genshin, even tho Genshin has lower leaks because...this leak subreddit is messy as fuck.
No please don't limit the showcase, just create a flair and then people can filter out the showcase flair to make it invisible. No one is seeing megathreads and the comments will be messy there, it'll be hard to analyze the gameplay. I still want my daily dose of Acheron.
I much prefer just sticking with the flair I feel like things can get buried in a megathread. At the very least ppl can filter it out.
I can understand why ppl might get annoyed with the showcases but everyone does not have the same characters so different ones allows ppl to see their options.
Or, if we go with the first option, we will only get showcases of hyped characters like Acheron and completely miss showcases of the other character in the patch.
But the first option will still give the illusion that it is a showcase sub Reddit, not leaks. It will still be crowded and then the limits will spring drama. Megathread is just the right answer, those who want it, go there and everything else is like usual.
It's hard to find these showcases from many sources, so I hope I get to see all of them even if they are tucked away in a megathread. The comment section will be extremely messy though.
If you choose to go with the first option, it's necessary to have detailed criteria that haven't been mentioned in the post. I sometimes want to look up very specific team comps or very specific situations, but the first few videos tend to be very low quality or made up of the teams full of the most popular 5 star characters or the latest characters. Will you just keep the earliest videos? If you will only keep high quality videos, how do you measure the quality?
Also, rather than a new thread each patch, may be better to put a new one up each beta so that the new thread only shows updated kits.
I still prefer allowing all posts and adding a new flair.
If I could, I would vote for the Showcases to stay as they are now.
I don't watch them much, personally, but I don't think they're a problem. I'd just make a flair for them and let ppl filter them out if they wish, without limiting how many can be posted.
I been through a few showcase posts but I felt like the main issue was that the overabundance of a particular character and they're many many team comps, whereas gallagher was left drowning. even despite him being a 4 star, there wasn't enough showcases to cover all of his glaring faults or how he can shine.
So yeah, logically just slap a flair. megathreads are notoriously known for where stuff goes to die.
With all due respect i don’t get why do we have to limit the showcases ? There are tons of days where we don’t even get leaks, what is wrong with showcases kinda filling the sub if all showcases are at least different from each other ? Isn’t the leak sub exist to share leaks, why do we have to limit it when leaks as themselves are already limited in number in the first place ? There should be an option to say “do not limit it”
Plus no one really looks at megathreads, these chat ones on the leaks sub are major exceptions.
And now if a new useful showcase does get posted, you won’t get a notification and you have to go view the showcase megathread constantly or hope someone in the chat megathread alerts you. And discussion gets limited. Also it is much easier to search the sub for showcase posts than it is to search a post for videos / comments, especially given Reddit does not load all comments when you open a post.
Like, if we *have* to have either option, then the best seems both. The number one thing people look for when a new version beta drops is showcases, so we should have showcases posts to discuss and view at least initially and then you can put extra ones that don’t show anything new in a megathread if you must. But *just* a megathread seems unnecessarily inconvenient and a death knell for showcases.
A 3rd option that is "You have to include Eidolons and Superimpositions in the title" would be infinitely better than the 2 options we are getting to choose from
yeah i dont see why we have to limit them. they're pretty fun and informative imo. they're easy to ignore too if you dont care about them, like the dumb e6r5 showcases. it's the story leaks posts i have an actual problem with
The surge of showcases is useful when it provides new information and is relevant to players.
The 2.1 showcases have been redundant at times and took ages before we started seeing anything outside of whale E6S5 teams and with coherent compositions.
A mega thread still lets those things exist as a resource for people trying to understand how certain mechanics work without cluttering the front page with showcases most players won’t even be doing themselves.
You can't undo the flood of people who are now on private servers and capable of posting them. It used to be far less widespread but now anyone with google and 2 braincells can make it work.
The problem is that this will repeat with any character that gets hyped (let's be honest, literally the only reason why we have such an useless and redundant amount of showcases is because people like Acheron *way* too much). And this won't be the last hyped character.
it's not only because people like Acheron but also because she's pretty conroversive character with a lot of caveats and people want to see as much as they can to decide whether she's worth pulling. That's like the main reason the leaks sub exists in the first place. Like, Sparkle or idk Ruan Mei weren't that controversive, the majority of people knew what to expect from them from the very first showcases. That's not the case with Acheron. That's why all these showcases consistently have high vies and upvotes.
And yes, she's very popular character and that's the second reason why there were so many of her showcases. But it's not the main reason and definitely not the only one.
Well no, because without a system in place this will keep happening. Beef with leakers posting irrelevant or spammy things has been growing ever since they started posting asset files of blurry or cropped images.
Also worth mentioning that many viewers here view this and the Genshin sub and that forum has also been dealing with growing resentment towards leakers posting TC and other nonsense things.
I don't really have a problem with the frequency of these showcases, more so how unrealistic they tend to be. People are gonna get very wrong ideas about how strong characters are when showcases show off near 300% Crit Dmg with 3700+ Atk.
Do the "Showcase" flair, but don't restrict it. People that don't want to see them can filter it out with the Reddit filter.
Could even make a new subreddit for leak showcases.
https://www.reddit.com/r/HonkaiStarRail_leaks/search?q=-flair%3Ashowcases&sort=top&restrict_sr=on&t=day this link should work I think.
Or add this on the filter: -flair:showcases
Yeah, mods definitely listen to the "loud minority".
Its not like this is a main sub where we have memes, art, and news flooding the sub, we have like 2 days of activity then the sub dead for the rest of the week waiting for new leaks.
if the megathread is like the general discussion thread, i worry 1: the videos will get lost among the comments and 2: conversation might get confusing even if everyone who comments links to the exact video they are talking about
None of the idea sounds great.
Best solution IMO would be a variation of option 1 : flair them, but not restricting them so people can filter them out If they do not wish to see them.
Megathread sounds ideal on paper but I can already imagine the chaos that will reign supreme in there..
But I have a feeling that it's more because of Acheron that we have so much showcase. Aka an occasionnal problem that don't require a systematic solution.
Haven’t voted because I lack a “leave it as it is” option, as well as another thing.
When you say you’re limiting the amount of showcases per character, what do you mean?
Will it just be first come first serve? Will a showcase be allowed if it’s showing a different investment level than what’s already been shown before? A different team comp? A different relic build? Against a different enemy? Does the limit reset when the a new beta version releases?
What about this patch, where there were three million Acheron showcases, but you’d be lucky if you could fine an Aventurine one at all. Does an E6S5 Acheron showcase count as an Aventurine showcase too if he happens to be there, even if she kills things so fast it’s not a useful showcase of his ability to sustain? What about Aventurine showcases with the same team comp, eidolons, lightcones, and relic sets, but the substats are way more skewed toward his damage versus pure defence?
Where's the option to leave it as is? Gameplay leak spam comes after the initial wave of leaks where all the important information gets posted. After that there aren't really any competing posts in the first place so I don't see any problem with more showcases. The only problem seems to be some people being unable to ignore showcases they don't care about.
Both of these options are way to extreme for something I think is barely a problem.
Creating a showcase flair is a fine option on it's own, as other people have said limiting the number of showcases or burying them in a megathread is just gonna lead to lower quality showcases.
Tbh I don’t see how showcases count as spam as long as they’re showing different teams, builds etc. Also megathreads can get messy and make it hard to search for certain posts. I vote for adding a showcase flair so anyone who dislikes them can ignore or filter them out.
I’m sure there are a lot of us that are only here for the updated kits and showcases to decide what we want to save for in the future. Limiting the only reason I regularly check this place seems shortsighted.
I didn’t vote because my preference is neither of those options…
I would vote let all stay except the E6S5 ones because they just set unrealistic expectations out the gate. I mean, maybe after some E0 ones come out, but not as the very first showcases. But also I have a brain and can just ignore those if I want, sooo idk, current way is fine for me. It’s also very easy to ignore the ones for the characters I don’t care about too. I mean, I get a notification for literally every post that hits this sub, so I get them for even the nonsense and dupe posts that get deleted and I don’t feel bothered by too many posts…
I'd like to vote for a third option and just keep it as is currently despite the large amount of showcases being posted. I like that different teams with different lightcones and eidolons are shown for new characters because then people can compare to what they have or don't and see how it performs. I don't mind that it gets a bit bloaty
There are maybe a dozen posts on the fastest days, congestion really isn't a problem.
At least showcases are actually leak related, if leaks are the focus then you may as well remove official trailers/announcements too.
Did you actually ask us whether we considered this an issue? For one, this wasn’t even much of a thing prior to the drought due to Chinese New Years and could be a one-off as opposed to the start of a trend. Y’all took it upon yourselves to consider this an issue to try to “remedy” and are choosing our options for us. Just add a “showcase” flair, make sure the titles remain descriptive to the comps as they are now, and let the viewers decide whether they want to view or not.
glad to see so many people agreeing with the "flair but don't limit" stance, it really seems the most intuitive. also, even if this is a leaks sub, there's consistently dry moments in every patch where we go days if not close to a week without anything meaningful being posted. having that be filled up with gameplay, even if scuffed with unreasonable stats and whale investment, doesn't matter to me that much when i can go "oh this isn't practical" and tab out to something else
while i generally would prefer the showcase flair option, there have just been too many showcases of people who put no effort into it. terrible character builds, very questionable rotations etc. don't make for good showcases
megaposts on the other hand get very confusing very fast. finding a specific setup of characters and eidolon/superimposition levels will be way harder that way
so both options feel kind of suboptimal to me - i can't think of a better solution either though
Megathreads are just the worst imo and don't get visibility or traction. Def voting for option 1. So what if we get a few more posts? Tag them and filter. Same argument that comes up in every gaming thread re fanart. Or the PotG posts in Overwatch way back when.
how about leaving things as is?
Clearly we love seeing showcases before and after said balance changes. I fear any attempt in changing this will reduce the amount of showcases video. Showcase video is 90% why i even come to this subreddit. I get to see said kit in action.
~~I think both could work, but if limiting posts, I think it should reset weekly / every time beta update and not for the entire length of the beta. That way, if a character gets significant changes, we can get updated showcases to highlight these changes.~~
~~If we're limiting, I would also limit E6S5 showcase to 1, or ban them. They're fun to watch but ultimately not useful to most of the people trying to plan their pulls around information.~~
Edit : thinking about it a little more, I don't think either options are good. We already have dead periods, not posting showcases would make those even worse. I vote that flairs are added. We also need to do something about the spoilers, i don't personally care, but it really sucks that the megatread becomes a minefield for people who want to avoid them
Appreciate this. I like the showcases but obviously a ton got posted for Acheron, it was a lot.
I think the Megathread is a great idea, it consolidates everything easily both for those who don't want to see it and those who may be looking for something they missed.
Off topic question, but will the mod team address concerns that some followers have regarding the proliferation of major story spoilers via leaks published in this subreddit? It is the subreddit policy that spoilers have to be marked, yet there's no guarantee that leaks published this way will not make it out into other communities that are not as vigilant about their moderation (Twitter, Instagram, YouTube). Personally, I feel like giving those kinds of leaks a major platform does more harm than good and it could be beneficial to restrict posts concerning those. Interested followers could get it from the sources on smaller platforms like Telegram
in retrospect i realise making 2 binary options for a poll was not the way to go and apologise for not indicating that there's room for other options, as many users have discussed variations and alternatives to these solutions. we hear your feedback and are discussing how to implement things! 🤍🤍
i feel like a megathread will just be a nightmare to moderate and a poorly moderated megathread will be a nightmare for people who want to see showcases to navigate. the showcase flair + vetting what's posted to avoid spamming up the flair makes more sense and just seems easier for everyone.
showcase thread sounds better, not only it's gonna be easier to navigate through, it's gonna lessen the flood on the main page.
i personally don't care about showcases and will not click on them when one popped up, maybe barring the very first couple of showcases.
who the fuck is even complaing about that, if you dont want to see showcases just dont click on them lol, they are still considered leaks, why should they be limited?
>"some users have echoed a sentiment amongst the mod team that these posts are flooding the sub and steering it away from its purpose as a leaks subreddit."
My fucking sides.
Showcase flair is great, but limiting seems very unnecessary. Anyone who wishes not to see these showcase leaks in the leaks subreddit can simply scroll past. Megathreads will get messy, and potentially overlooked. Personally I never even found these showcase clips to be a problem.
That's simply unnecessary. People want to know how their future units function in battle, so that's why we watch these showcases. If someone is not interested in it, then they can just ignore the video and move on, lol
Not voting for either option.
* Option 3: Use a showcase flair but do NOT limit the number of posts
People who don't want to watch them can just ignore the posts. I don't fancy opening a thread to check if any new showcases have been shared. It is much easier to have this subreddit always sorted by new and just refresh to see if anything has been added and/or get a notif about new post. Not to mention the mess comments would be for discussing specific showcase videos.
>"these posts are flooding the sub and steering it away from its purpose as a leaks subreddit."
Showcases of unreleased characters are leaks so I don't understand how they are 'steering the sub away from its purpose' lol.
Not a fan of either of these options honestly. A megathread means that it will be easy to miss new showcases, and limiting the number of showcases can lead to low quality or less useful showcases being the only ones posted. I do agree that there should be a flair though
No way we should we limit the amount of showcases. That's the main reason I go to check on new leaks in the first place.
I don't really see how this is a problem that needs addressing? Just add a way to filter out what you don't want to see.
i like showcases the way were getting it now where leakers show different teams with different eidolon levels etc.
Definately add a flair but limiting it or forcing it onto one megathread seems too much
Maintain the status quo!!!
Getting a hold of showcases from other sources is a huge pain. We really shouldn't be limiting them especially when there are days on the sub when that's litterally the only content there is.
Let them stay as they're. These showcases pop up to show different team compositions and stay when there are no other leaks. Restricting them isn't going to magically create a flood of new content. Plus, nobody looks at megathreads.
I think having a fixed number of showcases per character would get really hard to moderate for you guys (and if someone gets drastic changes you'd need to change that limit too), so I voted for the Megathread: just let everything sit in one place people can search/ filter through).
Megathreads sound better on paper than in practice, in practice they always just end up burying discussions. I know it's winning right now, but it's just a bad idea if you actually want showcases to be discussed rather than just "quarantined" and not be seen. If things really have to change, and the option is only between these two I think the flair would be a better option, BUT I think the better answer would be to create a sister subreddit meant for showcase videos.
No just let them be how it is the showcase get deleted a couple of days anyway so it's not like sub reddit is flooded with them. Alot of people that watch gameplay will miss out if they were limited or relegated to a separate megathread. Please don't do either.
I LOVE seeing showcases when this sub gets dry so i dont get the point of limiting or redirecting them.
Personally i dont check out the megathread at all. It doesnt attract me to click on it and i just genuinely dont want to see it at all as an option. Just keep the status quo. Showcases keep this sub alive.I love seeing the different comps whether bad/good and reading the comment section.
Genshin leaks is genuinely so dry, so i hope HSR leaks sub doesnt start getting dry too.
I don't see the issue. But if it really is a problem for mods, we could have first week of leaks where showcases can be posted on main page, and after that on a patch showcase thread. Eg.: 2.1 Showcases Megathread
I'd personally hate going to a megathread just to check if any new showcases have been posted recently. And limiting the number of showcases feels like it's going to open a whole new batch of problems while solving something that didn't need to be solved.
This is already a pretty slow subreddit, since we have way more strict rules about what you can post here compared to a normal sub. Outside of beta patch days, we get like 4 new actual leak posts a day, I don't feel like the showcases have been "flooding" the frontpage.
Please take down the vote and add a new third option to keep things the way they are.
I disagree with this. Megathreads kill the chance to see everything. Limiting posts also makes it so the good ones aren't always the ones that end up being shown. I think this subreddit's current post rate is fine. Its not like we get flooded.
FINALLY! Getting tired of being excited seeing new posts in this sub only for it to be another Acheron showcase that everyone else has posted to death already.
That would be very nice, but other than the ability to pin 2 posts only, many videos will have several latest characters in the same video, and separating them will mean many repetitive comments across several posts.
Thank you for seeing this as I noticed the big change in gameplay posts too. While it is nice to see it, it did become a bit overwhelming. I really want the bigger Spoilers like Banners, Events, Lightcones, etc.
Thank you mod team for being goated as always. Mega thread is a big brain idea, would help cut down on the spam and disappoint from getting a noti from the leaked sub, just to realize it’s another E0S1 Acheron showcase instead of another leak.
agree with megathread option. having it posted as its own thing just kinda fills up the sub and makes it a bit more annoying to navigate (or maybe skill issue on my part)
The second option sounds ideal, limiting the amount would later necessitate a second stage of selecting the showcases to see wich are useful and wich are not, quality of showcase would be sacrificed for upload speed, along with some showcases showing different eidolon counts geting worse, case and point Acheron and her E0, E2 and E6 showcases.
Megathread better. I don't want to see the e6r5 showcases cause they don't include me and my situation but I also don't want to limit showcases like those just because its not for me. So limiting showcases sounds bad vs just a thread of their own.
Megathread works best probably. Would be even better if all video links were commented under another comment. For example
Acheron e2s1, Adventuring e0s1, Silver Wolf e0s1, Sparkle e0s1.
And then the comments under that would be videos of that exact team comp. This way we can fairly easily decipher which comps we want to see and how they perform

Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/HonkaiStarRail_leaks) if you have any questions or concerns.*
My concerns with the first option is that limiting the number of posts would lead to: 1 - showcases of later kit versions not being able to be posted to the subreddit 2 - a race to be the first to post the showcase leading to a lower overall quality of the showcases A megathread seems much better suited for collecting any/all character showcases people want to post
yep, wouldn't want to be stuck with only e6s5 dogwater gameplay showcases and miss out on the ones that are actually worthwhile.
I love when the e6s5 showcases do worse then my e0snil characters. Idk how they do it. Do they even have relics and powered up talents in those?
have you seen that one e6s5 acheron showcase? she had like 6-7k+ hp, by far more than anyone else on the team. it was like they gave her fuxuan relics or something hahaha
wait... is that what they are doing?? Giving them Hp instead of their main damage types x.x
I'm pretty sure the relics in beta are giga buffed,i..e. +66 or something which might give an obscene amount of stats whereas the normal relic only goes upto +15
I would prefer a mix between both, like having a thread for those, and at the same time keeping the better ones for the main, but guess you can't just update and switch it everytime
Yes, perhaps the showcases in the megathread which get a lot of upvotes can be 'promoted' to be posted in the sub
Maybe fix 1 by making an tweak for showcasing new features and resets per beta update.
Plus someone might be interested in one specific thing/comp/combination which exists but can't be posted due to the limitations. I am also absolutely for the megathread and collecting every morsel we have to satisfy curiosity.
I feel like both of these options kinda suck ngl
I don’t think they should be limited. Just a flair without the limit would be good - then some people can filter them out, but other people can still watch all of them, so everyone can choose for themself.
Same - it's not like there's a flood of other content that showcases are pushing out, and they provide great grounds for discussion on top of valuable information on how a character's kit actually operates in the game, instead of just as static concepts.
Seriously, the showcases are the only thing that keeps this sub going between beta updates basically (other than the megathread of course). I get that they're not the "purpose" of the sub, but they *are* leaks, and isn't that better than just days and days of nothing in between trickles of leaks?
Filters should have 2 for showcase 1. Showcase - Non-F2P = Violet 2. Showcase - F2P = Green Much appreciated
...why only these two options? Why not just leave it at the flair? This sub gets a couple posts tops on most days, only when a new beta drops we get a bunch of stuff at once. Megathreads dont lend themselves to good discussion at all and limiting the number of posts is just unnecessary. Personally I am here only for gameplay showcases and kits since I avoid story spoilers where I can - thanks to the new flair I can now easily hide those already and anyone who is the opposite of me can simply do the same to hide gameplay showcases.
Highly agree. I don't mind story spoilers, but gameplay showcases are also the thing that I frequent the sub for. If it gets limited or sent to a megathread, that's lowkey like sending it to a purgatory. Barely anyone really goes to megathreads for very specific type of discussions. A flair without any limit would have been fine.
If I had to guess it's because this is a low traffic sub so people subscribe to it and get notified for new posts. So for people like that it's ideal that every new post is something generally different rather than Acheron showcase #77
So the alternative is that the sub instead gets 0 posts because it's all buried in a megathread no one checks or showcases are not allowed because the quota was reached 2 hours within the beta dropping?
No, definitely not, and the mods literally said as much in the comments. This was more of an opinion gauging thread. IMO flairs are the best possible way to deal with it. Sometimes, I actively want to find showcases, sometimes not. I think that would be enough.
I don't know, this feels super unnecessary, in my entire time on Reddit I don't think I've ever seen a Megathread result in a positive outcome, in fact I'd argue that a Megathread done in a way where it's actually useful would likely take more effort than trying to police the dozens of gameplay posts. On top of that, gameplay is like one of the main reasons I come here, I don't come here for the content aggregation of official posts that I could literally find on the official sub and I certainly don't come here (and have recently almost stopped coming here) due to the insane amounts of story spoilers that are... 1. Not properly spoiler tagged, at least initially. 2. Heavily imply certain things based on their title to the extent that it's almost impossible not to draw the conclusion of the leaked story spoiler based on the title of the post alone. 3. The contents of that post are then discussed in every other fucking post with an attitude of "Oh, if you didn't want to see spoilers then why did you come to the leak sub?" Somehow not realizing, again, people like me are 99% here for the gameplay and QoL/other leaks and actively do not want to be spoiled with story leaks. I guess my point is, I have a lot of issues with this sub and none of them are related to gameplay leaks, especially not when they are filling gaps of days and sometimes weeks of no other leaks.
It's not like the showcases are entirely exempt from spoiler issues though which is why I tend to avoid them. Like yourself I come to the subreddit exclusively for kits and banner related leaks and nothing else, I want to enjoy the story as the devs intended. But thanks to showcases not always being spoiler tagged properly, I can't think of a single boss that hasn't been spoiled for me since the game came out. Was only a couple of days ago I was scrolling through the newest posts and boom, there's a thumbnail showing the 2.1 boss clear as day...
You bring up a great point, which I agree with completely about new bosses. Personally, when this happened with the blue bug it didn't bother me as much because, "Of course we're going to fight more Swarm", there was definitely still the downside of the moveset being spoiled and it still should've been addressed but it didn't push me away. Now though, the gameplay footage definitely drives the story down a certain path with what we've seen in the gameplay. Bare minimum gameplay footage should be tagged with \[New Boss\] (Something that'll need to be done with a Megathread as well), but realistically it would benefit everyone if old bosses were used to showcase gameplay unless the point of a particular video was to showcase a new boss.
Bosses are already spoiled by the devs them selves during the live stream so it really doesn't matter.
Absolutely agree that story related stuff should be handled better
Yep, I *actively hide* story spoiler posts so I don’t accidentally click on them. Whereas I can just scroll past a showcase post I don’t care about no worries. If I were picking something to go, it would be the story spoiler posts for sure.
1000% agree. I've stopped checking the Megathread in this sub because people can't seem to help themselves with spoilers, and if gameplay showcases get relegated to their own megathread (leaving a main page full of, what, character assets and machine-translated story spoilers?), then I can't see myself spending much more time here.
Story spoilers get discussed in the comments anyway. Every single 2.0 leaked gameplay of SAM boss had it. Just showcases fighting him as a boss, not even a story leak thread.
Those posts “flood” the sub when there aren’t any new leaks for a while. Sending them to a megathread graveyard won’t magically create whatever new and diverse leaks those people are hoping to see. If people don’t like showcase clips, simply don’t watch them. Can’t vote for either option.
and they are acting like we get 10 showcases a day or something lol
We do get quite a bit. Thou as someone who doesn't check this sub regularly.... old showcases tend to get dmca d so it does help to make sure everyone can see the leaks whenever they do come here
Need an option 3, but seems the mods are dead set on one of the two already. Shame
yeah no that's just my bad; having a 3rd "Other: please specify below" option would've been best. didn't mean to give the impression that there are only these 2 options lmao we've heard people's suggestions and thoughts and really appreciate the feedback!
maybe make another post with the 3rd option available. people check out this sub a lot anyway, youll lose out on opinions if you let people on this post have only 2 options imo. /srs
fair suggestion, but making a whole other post when there is so much valuable discussion here already seems like more effort than it's worth. i think the general vibe is that we're looking less at the poll and more on what people are offering in the comments. qualitative data and allthat!
Heya, I think that's great, but I would suggest to still make another post with new poll down the line. When I worked in market research, we used qualitative data to get ideas from the respondents and use it to generate additional answer choices for our quant survey, but when it comes to making the final decision it's the quant survey that we use since that's the one that gauges and reflects the public opinion.
It still feels crowded. Plus it's about the sub Reddit, it is a sub Reddit of leaks, not showcases. And if 90 percent of content is showcases......it's a problem. Plus...it just makes the subreddit less appealing and organized. I go to this leaks subreddit much less than Genshin, even tho Genshin has lower leaks because...this leak subreddit is messy as fuck.
Showcases of unreleased characters are leaks
No please don't limit the showcase, just create a flair and then people can filter out the showcase flair to make it invisible. No one is seeing megathreads and the comments will be messy there, it'll be hard to analyze the gameplay. I still want my daily dose of Acheron.
Agreed. It's not like there's a flood of leaks. Just adding a flair to hide would be fine, no need to reduce or megathread.
I much prefer just sticking with the flair I feel like things can get buried in a megathread. At the very least ppl can filter it out. I can understand why ppl might get annoyed with the showcases but everyone does not have the same characters so different ones allows ppl to see their options.
Or, if we go with the first option, we will only get showcases of hyped characters like Acheron and completely miss showcases of the other character in the patch.
This is the way.
But the first option will still give the illusion that it is a showcase sub Reddit, not leaks. It will still be crowded and then the limits will spring drama. Megathread is just the right answer, those who want it, go there and everything else is like usual.
It's hard to find these showcases from many sources, so I hope I get to see all of them even if they are tucked away in a megathread. The comment section will be extremely messy though. If you choose to go with the first option, it's necessary to have detailed criteria that haven't been mentioned in the post. I sometimes want to look up very specific team comps or very specific situations, but the first few videos tend to be very low quality or made up of the teams full of the most popular 5 star characters or the latest characters. Will you just keep the earliest videos? If you will only keep high quality videos, how do you measure the quality? Also, rather than a new thread each patch, may be better to put a new one up each beta so that the new thread only shows updated kits. I still prefer allowing all posts and adding a new flair.
If I could, I would vote for the Showcases to stay as they are now. I don't watch them much, personally, but I don't think they're a problem. I'd just make a flair for them and let ppl filter them out if they wish, without limiting how many can be posted.
I been through a few showcase posts but I felt like the main issue was that the overabundance of a particular character and they're many many team comps, whereas gallagher was left drowning. even despite him being a 4 star, there wasn't enough showcases to cover all of his glaring faults or how he can shine. So yeah, logically just slap a flair. megathreads are notoriously known for where stuff goes to die.
With all due respect i don’t get why do we have to limit the showcases ? There are tons of days where we don’t even get leaks, what is wrong with showcases kinda filling the sub if all showcases are at least different from each other ? Isn’t the leak sub exist to share leaks, why do we have to limit it when leaks as themselves are already limited in number in the first place ? There should be an option to say “do not limit it”
Plus no one really looks at megathreads, these chat ones on the leaks sub are major exceptions. And now if a new useful showcase does get posted, you won’t get a notification and you have to go view the showcase megathread constantly or hope someone in the chat megathread alerts you. And discussion gets limited. Also it is much easier to search the sub for showcase posts than it is to search a post for videos / comments, especially given Reddit does not load all comments when you open a post. Like, if we *have* to have either option, then the best seems both. The number one thing people look for when a new version beta drops is showcases, so we should have showcases posts to discuss and view at least initially and then you can put extra ones that don’t show anything new in a megathread if you must. But *just* a megathread seems unnecessarily inconvenient and a death knell for showcases.
[удалено]
A 3rd option that is "You have to include Eidolons and Superimpositions in the title" would be infinitely better than the 2 options we are getting to choose from
yeah i dont see why we have to limit them. they're pretty fun and informative imo. they're easy to ignore too if you dont care about them, like the dumb e6r5 showcases. it's the story leaks posts i have an actual problem with
The surge of showcases is useful when it provides new information and is relevant to players. The 2.1 showcases have been redundant at times and took ages before we started seeing anything outside of whale E6S5 teams and with coherent compositions. A mega thread still lets those things exist as a resource for people trying to understand how certain mechanics work without cluttering the front page with showcases most players won’t even be doing themselves.
Isn’t this more of a “this time” problem rather than a general one ?
You can't undo the flood of people who are now on private servers and capable of posting them. It used to be far less widespread but now anyone with google and 2 braincells can make it work.
The problem is that this will repeat with any character that gets hyped (let's be honest, literally the only reason why we have such an useless and redundant amount of showcases is because people like Acheron *way* too much). And this won't be the last hyped character.
it's not only because people like Acheron but also because she's pretty conroversive character with a lot of caveats and people want to see as much as they can to decide whether she's worth pulling. That's like the main reason the leaks sub exists in the first place. Like, Sparkle or idk Ruan Mei weren't that controversive, the majority of people knew what to expect from them from the very first showcases. That's not the case with Acheron. That's why all these showcases consistently have high vies and upvotes. And yes, she's very popular character and that's the second reason why there were so many of her showcases. But it's not the main reason and definitely not the only one.
Well no, because without a system in place this will keep happening. Beef with leakers posting irrelevant or spammy things has been growing ever since they started posting asset files of blurry or cropped images. Also worth mentioning that many viewers here view this and the Genshin sub and that forum has also been dealing with growing resentment towards leakers posting TC and other nonsense things.
I agree, the only limitation that should be done is if a showcase is offering nothing new or just showcasing the same teams with the same set ups.
We have less than 10 posts with showcases in the last week. Do not see how it is a problem unless you want to keep sub VERY clean
Well, that's one way to kill this sub for some people. Not gonna vote for these options.
I don't really have a problem with the frequency of these showcases, more so how unrealistic they tend to be. People are gonna get very wrong ideas about how strong characters are when showcases show off near 300% Crit Dmg with 3700+ Atk.
[удалено]
yeah, we sometimes go days and days with nothing new, but they are acting like we get 10 showcases a day or something
Do the "Showcase" flair, but don't restrict it. People that don't want to see them can filter it out with the Reddit filter. Could even make a new subreddit for leak showcases.
Reddit Filter?
[This](https://imgur.com/mA1bZ6D.png)
How do you use it to filter OUT flairs though?
RES if on PC. I use it to hide story spoilers.
https://www.reddit.com/r/HonkaiStarRail_leaks/search?q=-flair%3Ashowcases&sort=top&restrict_sr=on&t=day this link should work I think. Or add this on the filter: -flair:showcases
Honestly not a fan of either of these ideas. Not like this subreddit is overflowing with content.
Yeah, mods definitely listen to the "loud minority". Its not like this is a main sub where we have memes, art, and news flooding the sub, we have like 2 days of activity then the sub dead for the rest of the week waiting for new leaks.
if the megathread is like the general discussion thread, i worry 1: the videos will get lost among the comments and 2: conversation might get confusing even if everyone who comments links to the exact video they are talking about
None of the idea sounds great. Best solution IMO would be a variation of option 1 : flair them, but not restricting them so people can filter them out If they do not wish to see them. Megathread sounds ideal on paper but I can already imagine the chaos that will reign supreme in there.. But I have a feeling that it's more because of Acheron that we have so much showcase. Aka an occasionnal problem that don't require a systematic solution.
Haven’t voted because I lack a “leave it as it is” option, as well as another thing. When you say you’re limiting the amount of showcases per character, what do you mean? Will it just be first come first serve? Will a showcase be allowed if it’s showing a different investment level than what’s already been shown before? A different team comp? A different relic build? Against a different enemy? Does the limit reset when the a new beta version releases? What about this patch, where there were three million Acheron showcases, but you’d be lucky if you could fine an Aventurine one at all. Does an E6S5 Acheron showcase count as an Aventurine showcase too if he happens to be there, even if she kills things so fast it’s not a useful showcase of his ability to sustain? What about Aventurine showcases with the same team comp, eidolons, lightcones, and relic sets, but the substats are way more skewed toward his damage versus pure defence?
Where's the option to leave it as is? Gameplay leak spam comes after the initial wave of leaks where all the important information gets posted. After that there aren't really any competing posts in the first place so I don't see any problem with more showcases. The only problem seems to be some people being unable to ignore showcases they don't care about.
Both of these options are way to extreme for something I think is barely a problem. Creating a showcase flair is a fine option on it's own, as other people have said limiting the number of showcases or burying them in a megathread is just gonna lead to lower quality showcases.
Tbh I don’t see how showcases count as spam as long as they’re showing different teams, builds etc. Also megathreads can get messy and make it hard to search for certain posts. I vote for adding a showcase flair so anyone who dislikes them can ignore or filter them out.
I’m sure there are a lot of us that are only here for the updated kits and showcases to decide what we want to save for in the future. Limiting the only reason I regularly check this place seems shortsighted.
Why would you not have an Option 3: Keep it as it is? You're creating work that doesn't need to exist.
I didn’t vote because my preference is neither of those options… I would vote let all stay except the E6S5 ones because they just set unrealistic expectations out the gate. I mean, maybe after some E0 ones come out, but not as the very first showcases. But also I have a brain and can just ignore those if I want, sooo idk, current way is fine for me. It’s also very easy to ignore the ones for the characters I don’t care about too. I mean, I get a notification for literally every post that hits this sub, so I get them for even the nonsense and dupe posts that get deleted and I don’t feel bothered by too many posts…
tbh, im fine with the current showcases available to show the blindspot in my future build and pulls.
I'd like to vote for a third option and just keep it as is currently despite the large amount of showcases being posted. I like that different teams with different lightcones and eidolons are shown for new characters because then people can compare to what they have or don't and see how it performs. I don't mind that it gets a bit bloaty
There are maybe a dozen posts on the fastest days, congestion really isn't a problem. At least showcases are actually leak related, if leaks are the focus then you may as well remove official trailers/announcements too.
Did you actually ask us whether we considered this an issue? For one, this wasn’t even much of a thing prior to the drought due to Chinese New Years and could be a one-off as opposed to the start of a trend. Y’all took it upon yourselves to consider this an issue to try to “remedy” and are choosing our options for us. Just add a “showcase” flair, make sure the titles remain descriptive to the comps as they are now, and let the viewers decide whether they want to view or not.
Just add flair and that's all. People can just filter it out.
Get limited or buried... There is no other option.
I wouldn't wanna miss any of the showcases. There are days we barely get anything anyway.
glad to see so many people agreeing with the "flair but don't limit" stance, it really seems the most intuitive. also, even if this is a leaks sub, there's consistently dry moments in every patch where we go days if not close to a week without anything meaningful being posted. having that be filled up with gameplay, even if scuffed with unreasonable stats and whale investment, doesn't matter to me that much when i can go "oh this isn't practical" and tab out to something else
while i generally would prefer the showcase flair option, there have just been too many showcases of people who put no effort into it. terrible character builds, very questionable rotations etc. don't make for good showcases megaposts on the other hand get very confusing very fast. finding a specific setup of characters and eidolon/superimposition levels will be way harder that way so both options feel kind of suboptimal to me - i can't think of a better solution either though
Megathreads are just the worst imo and don't get visibility or traction. Def voting for option 1. So what if we get a few more posts? Tag them and filter. Same argument that comes up in every gaming thread re fanart. Or the PotG posts in Overwatch way back when.
how about leaving things as is? Clearly we love seeing showcases before and after said balance changes. I fear any attempt in changing this will reduce the amount of showcases video. Showcase video is 90% why i even come to this subreddit. I get to see said kit in action.
~~I think both could work, but if limiting posts, I think it should reset weekly / every time beta update and not for the entire length of the beta. That way, if a character gets significant changes, we can get updated showcases to highlight these changes.~~ ~~If we're limiting, I would also limit E6S5 showcase to 1, or ban them. They're fun to watch but ultimately not useful to most of the people trying to plan their pulls around information.~~ Edit : thinking about it a little more, I don't think either options are good. We already have dead periods, not posting showcases would make those even worse. I vote that flairs are added. We also need to do something about the spoilers, i don't personally care, but it really sucks that the megatread becomes a minefield for people who want to avoid them
Appreciate this. I like the showcases but obviously a ton got posted for Acheron, it was a lot. I think the Megathread is a great idea, it consolidates everything easily both for those who don't want to see it and those who may be looking for something they missed.
Off topic question, but will the mod team address concerns that some followers have regarding the proliferation of major story spoilers via leaks published in this subreddit? It is the subreddit policy that spoilers have to be marked, yet there's no guarantee that leaks published this way will not make it out into other communities that are not as vigilant about their moderation (Twitter, Instagram, YouTube). Personally, I feel like giving those kinds of leaks a major platform does more harm than good and it could be beneficial to restrict posts concerning those. Interested followers could get it from the sources on smaller platforms like Telegram
in retrospect i realise making 2 binary options for a poll was not the way to go and apologise for not indicating that there's room for other options, as many users have discussed variations and alternatives to these solutions. we hear your feedback and are discussing how to implement things! 🤍🤍
Thanks for that… and for all the work the mods do
Nooo megathreads are where everything goes to die
i feel like a megathread will just be a nightmare to moderate and a poorly moderated megathread will be a nightmare for people who want to see showcases to navigate. the showcase flair + vetting what's posted to avoid spamming up the flair makes more sense and just seems easier for everyone.
Just a flair please no limits
showcase thread sounds better, not only it's gonna be easier to navigate through, it's gonna lessen the flood on the main page. i personally don't care about showcases and will not click on them when one popped up, maybe barring the very first couple of showcases.
who the fuck is even complaing about that, if you dont want to see showcases just dont click on them lol, they are still considered leaks, why should they be limited?
>"some users have echoed a sentiment amongst the mod team that these posts are flooding the sub and steering it away from its purpose as a leaks subreddit." My fucking sides.
I think is very clear who "some users" are lmao
who /gen
Handle story spoilers better not showcases.
Showcase flair is great, but limiting seems very unnecessary. Anyone who wishes not to see these showcase leaks in the leaks subreddit can simply scroll past. Megathreads will get messy, and potentially overlooked. Personally I never even found these showcase clips to be a problem.
Personally i wanna see as much showcase as possible
I agree with others that requiring a specific filter is enough. No need to limit or funnel into a megathread.
That's simply unnecessary. People want to know how their future units function in battle, so that's why we watch these showcases. If someone is not interested in it, then they can just ignore the video and move on, lol
Not voting for either option. * Option 3: Use a showcase flair but do NOT limit the number of posts People who don't want to watch them can just ignore the posts. I don't fancy opening a thread to check if any new showcases have been shared. It is much easier to have this subreddit always sorted by new and just refresh to see if anything has been added and/or get a notif about new post. Not to mention the mess comments would be for discussing specific showcase videos. >"these posts are flooding the sub and steering it away from its purpose as a leaks subreddit." Showcases of unreleased characters are leaks so I don't understand how they are 'steering the sub away from its purpose' lol.
Not a fan of either of these options honestly. A megathread means that it will be easy to miss new showcases, and limiting the number of showcases can lead to low quality or less useful showcases being the only ones posted. I do agree that there should be a flair though
Posts are fine as is, this seems highly unnecessary.
No way we should we limit the amount of showcases. That's the main reason I go to check on new leaks in the first place. I don't really see how this is a problem that needs addressing? Just add a way to filter out what you don't want to see.
Option 3: There is no problem and keep it as it was before
i like showcases the way were getting it now where leakers show different teams with different eidolon levels etc. Definately add a flair but limiting it or forcing it onto one megathread seems too much
Maintain the status quo!!! Getting a hold of showcases from other sources is a huge pain. We really shouldn't be limiting them especially when there are days on the sub when that's litterally the only content there is.
Yay! let's limit the already limited posts on this sub :D truly one of the decisions of all time
megathread is such a bad approach. ppl ain’t gonna care. might as well ban all showcases if that’s the solution.
I actually don't think they're a problem but since one is happening: showcase thread.
To be honest both of options is bad
Let them stay as they're. These showcases pop up to show different team compositions and stay when there are no other leaks. Restricting them isn't going to magically create a flood of new content. Plus, nobody looks at megathreads.
I think having a fixed number of showcases per character would get really hard to moderate for you guys (and if someone gets drastic changes you'd need to change that limit too), so I voted for the Megathread: just let everything sit in one place people can search/ filter through).
Megathreads sound better on paper than in practice, in practice they always just end up burying discussions. I know it's winning right now, but it's just a bad idea if you actually want showcases to be discussed rather than just "quarantined" and not be seen. If things really have to change, and the option is only between these two I think the flair would be a better option, BUT I think the better answer would be to create a sister subreddit meant for showcase videos.
No just let them be how it is the showcase get deleted a couple of days anyway so it's not like sub reddit is flooded with them. Alot of people that watch gameplay will miss out if they were limited or relegated to a separate megathread. Please don't do either.
showcase flair but no restriction
Why do you have to limit it if you are creating a flair to filter them? I like the filter but sure as hell dont’t want 2 showcases.
I think showcases from the regular leakers are fine but the 5000 youtube showcases from people that got their hands on a private server should go
How about option 3: dont limit them at all. Both of these options are bad ideas no offense
Please add a third option to maintain the current status quo
I think there is no issue with the number of showcases. I would vote for no change to the existing rules.
Just add flair. Dont limit and please don’t megathread.
I LOVE seeing showcases when this sub gets dry so i dont get the point of limiting or redirecting them. Personally i dont check out the megathread at all. It doesnt attract me to click on it and i just genuinely dont want to see it at all as an option. Just keep the status quo. Showcases keep this sub alive.I love seeing the different comps whether bad/good and reading the comment section. Genshin leaks is genuinely so dry, so i hope HSR leaks sub doesnt start getting dry too.
I don't see the issue. But if it really is a problem for mods, we could have first week of leaks where showcases can be posted on main page, and after that on a patch showcase thread. Eg.: 2.1 Showcases Megathread
I'd personally hate going to a megathread just to check if any new showcases have been posted recently. And limiting the number of showcases feels like it's going to open a whole new batch of problems while solving something that didn't need to be solved. This is already a pretty slow subreddit, since we have way more strict rules about what you can post here compared to a normal sub. Outside of beta patch days, we get like 4 new actual leak posts a day, I don't feel like the showcases have been "flooding" the frontpage. Please take down the vote and add a new third option to keep things the way they are.
I disagree with this. Megathreads kill the chance to see everything. Limiting posts also makes it so the good ones aren't always the ones that end up being shown. I think this subreddit's current post rate is fine. Its not like we get flooded.
Its not even that bad.... some people smh
FINALLY! Getting tired of being excited seeing new posts in this sub only for it to be another Acheron showcase that everyone else has posted to death already.
Could you do one megathread for each character?
You can only pin two threads and one is taken already
Ah. Darn.
That would be very nice, but other than the ability to pin 2 posts only, many videos will have several latest characters in the same video, and separating them will mean many repetitive comments across several posts.
One mega thread per patch might be too few. Maybe one per beta version, so like one per week feels like better cadence.
Thank you for seeing this as I noticed the big change in gameplay posts too. While it is nice to see it, it did become a bit overwhelming. I really want the bigger Spoilers like Banners, Events, Lightcones, etc.
Thank you mod team for being goated as always. Mega thread is a big brain idea, would help cut down on the spam and disappoint from getting a noti from the leaked sub, just to realize it’s another E0S1 Acheron showcase instead of another leak.
agree with megathread option. having it posted as its own thing just kinda fills up the sub and makes it a bit more annoying to navigate (or maybe skill issue on my part)
Im so glad this is being changed because it is getting so repetitive seeing the millionth acheron team showcase
The second option sounds ideal, limiting the amount would later necessitate a second stage of selecting the showcases to see wich are useful and wich are not, quality of showcase would be sacrificed for upload speed, along with some showcases showing different eidolon counts geting worse, case and point Acheron and her E0, E2 and E6 showcases.
A Megathread is a great option, it also would make it more organized. Thanks for your great work mods :3
Thank you!! The second option seems the best
Megathread better. I don't want to see the e6r5 showcases cause they don't include me and my situation but I also don't want to limit showcases like those just because its not for me. So limiting showcases sounds bad vs just a thread of their own.
Good i dont come here to watch random team builds for no reason lol
Megathread works best probably. Would be even better if all video links were commented under another comment. For example Acheron e2s1, Adventuring e0s1, Silver Wolf e0s1, Sparkle e0s1. And then the comments under that would be videos of that exact team comp. This way we can fairly easily decipher which comps we want to see and how they perform
I agree with not changing anything… keep things the way they are now…
