In a recent discussion revolving around the game ‘Honkai: Star Rail’, users express their thoughts and feelings about the act of halting from doing ‘SD’. It appears to be a concept that fans have polarizing opinions on. A user named ‘Trunk_Dark’ stirred up this conversation with the question: ‘Anyone here stops doing SD? And why the F doesn’t doing SD give any score to weekly reset? Wouldn’t it encourage ppl to do more SD?’

What’s The Buzz About?

  • ‘Stormc5X’ comments on his love for SD mode because to him it signifies a ‘chaotically fun’ environment. Paraphrasing his thoughts, ‘SD is a joyful chaos that keeps me hooked.’
  • Quoting ‘Kotobot’, he reveals , ‘I left SD right after I got the Propagation path.’ This highlights the potential plateau players might reach once a particular achievement is unlocked.
  • ‘Glitterkrieger’ shares his perspective in touchingly candid terms: ‘It just takes so long that I don’t really feel motivated to do them :(‘ Superior thumbs down there mate! He speaks for every gamer who values time.

SD And Workout? That’s Something!

A user by the pseudonym ‘porncollecter69’ claims that he still indulges in SD during his workout sessions, as a standard run takes approximately 40 minutes which he insists, ‘is perfect for cardio.’ Now that’s a workout hack right there!

Call To Action For Points

‘vfernandez84’ and ‘cassiemoon_’ spoke about how being rewarded with points for engaging in SD would motivate them to play more. ‘I would totally do SD if it gave us points towards the weekly reset’ expresses vfernandez84. ‘I honestly forgot about it until yesterday … It’ll be fun while I’m doing it’ admits cassiemoon_ reflecting on her sporadic gameplay.

‘akDandiLion’ also chimed in with their frustrations stating ‘Kinda wanna ignore SD completely when it takes so long and gives nothing and hard as fuck without all the ungodly tier units in the game’ Link. This prevalent sentiment demonstrates the disinterest caused by the absence of rewards.

SD – The Way Forward

‘CZ2128-D’ and ‘WrongdoerRelative508’ suggested the future attempts they’ll make at SD are dependent on game updates and lore collection respectively. The former stated, ‘maybe I’ll revisit it when they include erudition on the next update.’ The latter confirmed, ‘Not until all lore is collected’ Link.
