Initial thoughts on volleyball
A little janky? Sure. not being able to control your teammate is bad, but I am still enjoying the mode for what it is - a fun diversion and a different way to earn the biweekly million fons aside from grinding Pink Paws for the 100th time.
Having a high serve is absolutely busted so far - if you serve from the corner it goes between your opponents and they just....miss....half the time. I find it funny how often mistiming a spike makes the ball go into the tape and then go over the net anyway.
One thing the mode is REALLY good at is making you want the summer skins. I was a hard skip on the current mystery box but seeing Mint in that bikini....and I don't even use Mint. Stop it Hotta!
I am staying strong knowing I have Latex Zero and Bond 10 Nanally, but God they are tempting me.
I haven't used too many toasts so far (I am through the warmup and the first stage) but I am thinking I will up Zero's attacking/serving and Mint's receiving/defense. I am currently leveling up Nanally and Iroi.
Overall, it isn't nearly as bad as some of the earlier side content/Hobbies. I'll give it a solid B so far.
Why are these random NPCs so fine.
Ngl NTE has the best npc designs.
Tried to cheat at volleyball… failed miserably
The artwork for Zankou's Twilight Noir looks weird
I haven't seen anyone mention this, but do you guys think the artwork for Zankou's Twilight Noir looks a little weird? Her face, especially the eyes, looks off to me. I know It's not big deal, but I'm wondering if anyone else feels the same way. The in-game model looks great though!
NTE's EN translation is actively ruining the story.
Posting this on behalf of u/09eragera09 since he's new to the sub and can't post, and I'd rather not have him encounter spoilers for 5 subreddit karma. I apologize if it's against some rule.
==================================================
TL;DR: I'm a JP->EN game translator, years of experience. While playing, couldn't help but notice a metric ton of mistakes that range from confusing wording to straight up the opposite of what the characters are saying. It actively ruins the plot, making the character motivations inconsistent, and introducing plot holes where there are none. Images included with the post, see for yourself.
==================================================
Hey all. I recently came back to the game (3-4 days ago) after having quit in 1.1, due to the slop-grade localization and a general lack of content. My main motivation for coming back was of course pulling for Zankou, and doing 999 Nights (Eureka from FF14, anyone?). However, the latest story patch has localization so poor that I'm genuinely having trouble believing it. The localization hasn't improved, it has only gotten worse with every successive patch. For context, I'm a full time JP->EN game translator, and during 1.0 I had to re-translate only a few lines here and there for my friends. During 1.1, I had to translate several of them. In 999 Nights, I had to do every other line, and the latest patch is so bad that I'm effectively doing live retranslation for every line from Japanese (I've attached images to this post so you guys can see).
Now yes, I am aware that the Japanese in itself is a TL from the Chinese, and that the EN is also a TL of the Chinese. But the differences shouldn't be THIS massive, THIS nonsensical (the EN dialogue straight up doesn't make sense, doesn't match the characters, etc) and somehow it's always EN localization that suffers such "creative liberties" in these games. Look at the EN dialogue and my Japanese->EN translations, and tell me if you really think that the EN lines are somehow better. I cannot help but wonder if even a straight Google Translate/ChatGPT translation of the dialogue would be an improvement over what we've currently got. If any of you know Chinese and would like to contribute, please do.
I have emailed Perfect World about this as well, and received no response. I've been complaining about the localization in every survey I've gotten as well. I would love to hear the community's take on this, and find whether there's anything we can do, because I like the game, and the poor localization is really making a decent product so much worse. We as players deserve better, and I think we should make our voices heard.
Guys will literally see this and type "Wife"
Zankou's mole on bond skin
It's bothered me since the livestream. At first, I thought her clothes just barely concealed it. But I lined up the shoulder blades and her mole should be visible.

Neverness to Everness generated over 2 Billion CNY (~$296.7M USD) in its first 4 months! (Perfect World 2026 Half-Year Report)

Translated text(By Gemini):
The company's self-developed supernatural urban open-world RPG game "Neverness to Everness" launched its global public beta in April 2026, targeting over 180 countries and regions globally. It was launched across six platforms: PC, Android, iOS, Mac, HarmonyOS, and PlayStation 5. Subsequently, the cloud version "Cloud - Neverness to Everness" was launched on Android, iOS, and PC, and the game was also listed on two major platforms, Steam and the Epic Games Store. "Neverness to Everness" achieved native innovation across multiple dimensions such as world-building, humanistic stories, urban concept design, and genre, creating a differentiated competitive advantage.
As of August 18, 2026 (the day before the disclosure of this report), the global cumulative revenue of "Neverness to Everness" exceeded 2 billion RMB [~$296.7M USD], of which global official channels (Official PC + Official Android) accounted for nearly 60% of the cumulative revenue.
Original text from the report:
公司自研的超自然都市开放世界 RPG游戏《异环》于 2026年 4月开启全球公测,面向全球 180余个国家及地区,在 PC、安卓、iOS、Mac、鸿蒙、PlayStation5等六个终端上线,随后陆续上线《云·异环》的安卓端、iOS端以及 PC端,并上架 Steam、Epic Games Store两大平台。《异环》围绕世界观构建、人文故事、城市概念设计与题材品类等多维度实现原生创新,打造差异化竞争优势。截至 2026年 8月 18日(本报告披露前一日),《异环》全球累计流水超 20亿元人民币,其中全球官方渠道(官方 PC+官方安卓)累计流水占比近 60%。
For those wondering about the accuracy of these numbers: Perfect World is a publicly traded company. By law, their financial reports are strictly audited and legally binding. This means these revenue numbers are official and completely reliable, unlike the third-party estimates (like SensorTower) we usually have to rely on for privately held companies like miHoYo. Furthermore, the link above is from CFI.CN (China Finance Information), which is a highly reputable financial data and news aggregator in China.
Hopefully, they can finally hire more people, pay the overworked devs, and actually improve the quality of the game.
Delighted at Zankou release
What a character. They were bold with their model design, the physics, the outfits! We get the story outfit for free with her? What a win!
Ill be happy to throw some money at them during this update, they have definitely exceeded my expectations here.
You can finally craft gold carrota!
Did not see anyone talk about it, but finally there is use for all that bronze and silver carrots everyone got laying around with no use!
