What about SEA Region? When is the PC port coming?

With Great Power, Comes Great MotivationSomething came up in r/houkai3rd, and I was going to add it to the game's page but I want to verify it...do the Valkyries' suits change from server to server to alter the amount of fanservice? Someone posted an on-the-bridge pic of Shadow Knight Fu Hua where the bodysuit part of the outfit was gone, and when I asked, a commenter said that it was on a server aside from Global. Is this true?
If it is, I'm pretty sure this was someone editing the Shadow Knight suit. I'm in SEA, so I could confirm that Shadow Knight has the same outfit as Global over here at least.
Why doesn't SEA have them?
The reasonable answer is: In their initial rush to get SEA on track with the JP server, they skipped the Reburn event along with the stigs. They probably don't know how to properly bring them in for one region since said Event was many versions ago.
The not so reasonable answer is: Screw their reasons, I just want Kiana and Theresa interacting with Cecilia in the dorms, dammit!
PC for SEA is coming in Q1 2020
. I'm guessing Global was a priority since NA/EU is not as big on mobile games as the rest of the world, and thus has the biggest potential of a PC Port leading to a large increase of new players.

Let's see, from what I know:
- The Escape from Nagazora manga has a few chapters that gives Mei's background This chapter includes an info blurb on Mei
, and the chapter after that includes the scene where Mei gets the bomb implanted near her heart
- The AE Invasion manga includes some history of Mei's awakening as a Herrscher
- Chapter 4 of the game delves a bit into Mei's background, such as how Cocolia framed her father to take control of ME Corp.
...Huh, for someone advertised as one of the main trio, Mei doesn't really get much material compared to the other Valkyries (Who at least got one story chapter, chronicles side story, manga volume, or visual novel where they serve as the main character)
No wonder she's some events have her complaining about being an Advertised Extra :p

Alright! After quite a long time, the non-Global servers are finally getting the PC version on Feb 13!

Such a great contrast to the greatest scientist - and, probably, the greatest woman - of the Previous Era lol.
There might be a good reason why we only see Mei as the returning character in "Honkai Aftermath"...
We can never truly eradicate the coronavirus, but we can suppress its threat like influenzaSo I downloaded the PC version
of Honkai Impact 3rd (or is that Honkai 3rd Impact…?) and was preparing to have fun but… the game stays stuck at the "loading the settings" screen. Is there something wrong or am I actually supposed to stare at the loading bar for over an hour before I can play?

I'm not sure it's that. The loading bar progresses smoothly and quickly at first
◊, but then around 2/3 of the way
◊ it just… stops. With the background elevator animation still running.

Sooo… problem solved. Turns out the game doesn't work if your computer's regional format is French. For some reason. I put it on "UK" and it works.
I'll have to buy a pad though, because gosh this is a pain with a keyboard.
(also, after 5 minutes of gameplay I already hope they have Bayonetta as a hidden character.)

So I noticed some companies been making their own version of Honkai like this one from another Chinese game studio.
And......this one from Japan based on a.......Uhhh....I got no words to say about this but just a Flat "What".
Well, it's a popular mobile game that's still making lots of money after 3 years, so it's not surprising that Follow the Leader took effect.
Huh... I imagine the meeting that led to this involved a Powerpoint presentation with Fate/Grand Order in one slide and Honkai Impact in another.

Ah, I see what you mean
. Judging by the date that it was posted on pixiv, looks like Chinese fans have been making roasted Higo jokes since her introduction
Maybe it came from fans taking Higo's love of barbecuing stuff (From her Stigmata stories, and the opening video of the Jizo Matama Raid) and running away with it? Or how she's kind of a cute animal friend, making her prime bait for "Pet as emergency food" jokes
