#Idol Land PriPara Diaries

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Managed to get into Idol Land PriPara for a little bit before getting kicked off with an error code.

There's some initial set up with character creation. I decided to start with the best approximation of me and then work out where to go from there later. Skin color options were expectedly meh but this gets pretty close to what my light skinned Hispanic self looks like. I've never been good at picking skin tone in video games anyway. (thanks childhood racial trauma!)

After that Laala talks with you and you're sent to a performance of Go!Go! PriPara Life with your character, her, and Amari. Gotta admit I felt a lot of sensory overload happening. Part of it was the joy of playing PriPara for the first time but also there was a lot going on for the size of the phone. I can see it being way easier hitting buttons than tapping a touch device. I'll have to test with my tablet later and see if a bigger screen makes any difference.

Forgot to set the translator app up (got distracted by the PriPara rush) but most of the rhythm game part is self explanatory. Tap this when it hits the outline, hold when you need to. The only thing that confused me was the cyalume change I wasn't sure what if anything I was supposed to do at that moment.

It kicked me off in the middle of giving me a score. This is the best screenshot I was able to get before that happened.

I'm gonna give it a day or so to let it settle while the devs work out how to deal with everyone hitting the servers. I guess if you leave people waiting for two years don't be surprised when we all go feral trying to get in ha ha.

New Coordes are available in Prism Stone which include the Marionette Mu Cyalume Coorde, Marigold Elegance Coorde and Sparkling Mermaid Coorde.

Here are the matchups. The winners of each group will compete in a three-way finale. Full matchups below the cut! I typed all of this by hand, so if you spot an error PLEASE let me know. My brain was simply Not There after a certain point.

I have the poll visuals for the first half of group one done, I just need to make posts for them. I'll try to finish them up by the end of tonight. I'll be releasing halves a day or two apart, but wait for one group to finish up before releasing matches for the next group. Without further ado...

ROCK YOU

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Shion gacha, woo

1st pull; paid gacha

2 more pulls: Top free gold; bottom ticket

And four leftover tickets

Man, so close to completing both. I'm out of cash to spend right now so I'll keep throwing the login bonus tickets at it til the end in hopes of finishing one off. Guess I can pretend until then.

God, look how great Michie looks in this fit. She was born to have it why can't you just give it to her

For some reason, the gold and red embellishments call to mind the logo for i☆Ris's 11th anniversary live Heart Jack

I doubt the intention was there so it makes for a nice accidental tribute.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Idol Land PriPara celebrating its 1st anniversary by reenacting the endless maintenance of its debut what a power move.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Wow, we got a splashy stamp screen for the 10th anniversary ticket campaign.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

10 tickets to go . . .

So my accidental experiment of "would they give you enough free GP tickets to at least guarantee the complete winter dream parade coord with 1 million points?" appears to be a no . . . Unless you're, like, willing to go full ham on pulling for the gacha to increase your percentage bonus, I guess?

Times like these I wish I would remember to keep up on my surveyjunkey app

I need a ten minute eye break. And maybe I'll take this time to remind myself songs other than yeah yeah idol party exist.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

!?

Pick your poison,

TRICK?

Or

TRICK?

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

5 percent boost, baybeh!

God, I have to actually start playing this game soon, don't I.

Well d4dj event is almost over so . . . I guess?

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

I haven't been posting my gacha because they've been pretty meh but I finally got a PPR today. Two even! And one of them was new!

Got my last new R today and now everything but the PPRs have been cleaned out. I'm not yet in an only 1 piece needed situation so just gonna wait out the rest of the gacha tickets

New completed fit.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Well not the outfit I would have liked to see completed today but hey I'll take it.

I'm getting a ticket tomorrow from the normal login bonus so hope is still somewhat alive.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Well, not too surprising to find maintenance extended. Big updates of this nature always seem to have run-ins with the app stores.

Here's to a fast resolution.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Oops, woke up too early. Had a dream that I woke up and it was like 1040 am so when I woke up for real I was like, okay what the wtf was that about? Also, there was a digital clock where the numbers were green? So anyway instead of falling back asleep I checked out Idolland for the Halloween gacha

Spent two probability up tickets. 1st thing I notice is the display for your gacha draw has changed

Now it tells you the name of the piece you pulled. After doing a ten pull it occurred to me that the piece sparkles based on the rarity.

Comparison of R, PR, SR, PPR sparkles. Convenient that I got one of each in this pull.

Here's an older cap of the screen for comparison.

My 10 pull result. Display looks bigger to me? No dupes so I didn't to check out the new dupe situation. Nothing to test out the new ticket gacha but we're getting a campaign so don't worry about that yet.

Basically it seems we can get tickets to do a new type of gacha. Too tired to grasp the Gtranslate specifics.

Moving on the new gacha mechanics, looks like ILPriPara has implemented a type of pity system

Basically, you can get points and then use those points to buy the coord piece you want. Unfortunately, it's on a piece by piece basis so at most you'll have to spend 2k to 4k points depending on the coord if you want the full thing. But not bad if you're one piece away from coord completion. And no accounting for rarity in cost either. Everything appears to cost 1k pts. I'd share another screenshot but I'm out of room. Looks like you can also spend your points on tickets, including probability up ones. Those are available for under 1k.

Well, that's all I got right now. Wonder if I'll fall back asleep. It's like an hour away from when I normally wake up so who knows.

[sadandpoutyandfrench]

Tried farming gold stages only seen these two so far

A lot of silver promises on board I presume from people trying to farm cash for the new years coords. So there's a suggestion if you want to fill up promises quickly.

Still trying on the shion gacha

I was close to ranking up so I did a few more lives this morning. Now at 106.

New hair unlock

And here's Michie trying out the new Pinon hair&color
