>20 million pre-register on chinaso it's flop on global ?
>>1402149I like some of the designs compared to like Genshin and HSR, but I don't really see the appeal of this game otherwise.
>>1402149too many menWestern weebs see men and feel insecure
I hope it's a flop so the fanbase won't be cancerous
>>1402149You mean 20 mil of Chink nationalist + hoyoslop fanboys?
>Homoverse games>FloppingZZZ will be a success like HSR because they know how to sell to normies and casuals.
>>1402279fanbase already moving on to wuthering wave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lp4bwp_nKMo
>>1402149I'm gonna try it out but there's like a 99% chance that the obsessive waifufag fanbase crying about a lack of fanservice is gonna be obnoxious enough to make me quit.
>>1402548Why would the soulless open world fanbase be interested in ZZZ to begin with?
>>1402149i am slightly interested because it looks refreshing compared to their other slop, but i dont feel too strong about itthe character designs right now are okay, but we all know where that's gonna go once the game releases and they start rehashing those same 5 design trends they have been using for years on every single new characteralready dropped gi and hsr due to that
>>1402640this toohoyoslop ALWAYS attracts the insanely mentally ill third worlders from south east asia
>>1402304It will just further cannibalize Genshin and HSR in a continued reshuffling of the playerbase, while being less successful than both were when they opened up their first year.>>1402654I'm an HSR player right now and I don't give a shit about turn based or open world. The game has gotten stale, and it's ready to be replaced by newer games. It was fortunate it rode off Genshin's success and there was nothing big released ever since it came out. I see it dropping off hard towards the end of this year. Hell it's already reached lows Genshin never did. Gacha hoppers and FOTM chasers need something new at this point.
>>1402797>It will just further cannibalize Genshin and HSR in a continued reshuffling of the playerbase, while being less successful than both were when they opened up their first year.True, yet ZZZ will be topping charts anyway because it's backed by a giant corpo. Homoverse's games are currently incapable of """flopping""" because they know how to make money with their games.>>1402640The fanbase being shit is only real if you engage in /vg/ or twitter which you shouldn't be doing in the first place.
>>1402149it has a furry dude so itll be popular but it has a furry dude so people will avoid it
>>1403137> they know how to make money with their games.Yeah they know that new players are more prone to whaling due to FOMO and catching up. That's why they spent more money on advertising and damage control rather than giving free stuff in-game. Whale will whale regardless and their sunk costs will do a better job chaining them to the game. Fanboys are fanboys and they'll slurp anything homoverse shit out.
>>1403137>The fanbase being shit is only real if you engage in /vg/ or twitter which you shouldn't be doing in the first place.So there's nowhere to talk about it then? You know it's shit if even a small community can't be critic about it.I've seen people in their home turf sperging but they got pacified easily with simple chinawank.
>>1402797hsr was such a massive disappointment to meit started off decent, i did enjoy the space station and jarilo, but then it was just genshit 2.0 but turn based and not open worldthe character designs are some of the worst, and i really just dont understand the obsession with making all the dudes look super faggy and tranny-likeand dont even get me started on the same fucking designing trends in every single characterhoyo is really bankrupt in the character design department, so i will be dropping this too if it starts showing those signs
>>1403155>So there's nowhere to talk about it then?Besides this dead board? Not really, but I'll take /vmg/'s slow threads over cesspools like /vg/ and twitter, you should only lurk those like once a week for redemption codes or leaks if you even care about those. Trying to comb through non-stop shitposting and autism for a crumb of honest discussion is not worth it.Or just get lucky and find yourself a weeb circle to talk about it somewhere else.>>1403171Just pump-and-dump it after you're done having fun with the launch roster. I literally only picked up Star Rail for Kafka and Silver Wolf, beat content for like half a year with them, got bored, and uninstalled. Though honestly what might get me to quit ZZZ early will be the lame TV minigames. Having them in main story quest that nobody cares about is one thing, but in events with time-limited rewards? Fuuuck that shit and fuck the chinks for liking puzzle garbage.
>>1403349yeaheven that tv thing being a regular weekly thing is gonna turn me offi dunno, maybe i will pick it until heartopia releases, but i just dont feel strongly about zzz at all, and i say that as someone who was really looking forward to see what new stuff they had to show in the beta testit just looks way too boring to play, but it also does look refreshing visually
>>1403137>/vg/ or twitterYou didn't see the ZZZ thread here during cbt
>>1403392I saw it, the /vg/ ones were worse and will continue to be once the game comes out.
all hoyoslop threads are awful because hoyoslop always attracts the mentally ill third worlders who cannot afford mental help but can afford a phone to play hoyoslop
>hoyoslop with probably the sexiest female designs they've ever made>but also with furriesyou just know how much of a shitshow this game will attract even by hoyo standards
Another hoyo game that never adds 5 stars to the standard pool, yay
>>1403746also expect more censored females and faggy tranny-looking "males"
>>1402797only thing its cannibalizing is Xbox lmao
>>1403359>it just looks way too boring to play, but it also does look refreshing visuallyStyle and aesthetics is all ZZZ has over the other Mihomo titles desu, It's just a damn shame how it gets dragged down by the imbalance of mini-games and actual combat. That being said, if by some miracle they don't put TV shit on events (meaning it gets contained in Hollow Zero and story quests) then I'll likely play the game for longer.
>>1402548The games haven't even come out but there are already gay psychoanalysis vids
why is it taking so long for this to release anyway?there wasnt much new stuff in the recent test anyway, absolutely no leakswhat could they be possibly holding off until release now? another test?
>>1404120Had to rewrite everything for pandering furries
>>1403721Just remove all the females and the fanbase will be fine.
>>1404259I wouldn't mind an all male cast if that keeps the usual hoyoslopslurpers away from the game
>>1403721It’s all censored slop anyways.
>>1404120>what could they be possibly holding off until release now?QoL changes and most likely the chinawank content, aka a whole chinatown dungeon and at least two new chink characters. I wouldn't be surprised if it takes them the entire half-year they have left to release the game according to their given license.
>>1404278Doesn't stop it from getting lewd mods and coom art from coomers and trend chasers
>>1404800Meant for >>1404664
>>1402149if they dont cater to fags only and release enough anthro girls i will dump my money on this hoyoslop and prevent its EoS
>>1402149I don't see this ending up good and I say that as someone who pre-registered when they revealed the game. Homoverse is just too fucking gay and cucked.
>>1402797>cannibalize Genshin and HSRYou're retarded, anon. Homo brainrot is very real. You faggots will play every one of their games simultaneously while shitting on whichever game didn't just have a big update. That's their gameplay. They aren't cannibalizing their userbase, they are adding on to it while trapping them in their web even harder
>>1406360>plays faghoyo games>calling anyone a homolmao
>projectinglmao
>>1406360not reallyalready dropped hi3, gi, and hsrthey all turned out really boringzzz is the only one hoyoslop that actually looks refreshing in ways more than one
>>1406360>Implying mihoyo games aren't made to pump and dump at your own leisure.I got bored of wuxia fantasy shit years ago so no not really lol. I'll probably ditch ZZZ at some point when Project Mugen and GFL 2 come out.
I am gonna drop this the moment they introduce chinawank and faggy "male" charactersI am sick of that shitSame with any other chinese game because that's all they seem to be capable of producing
ZZZ also takes place in China. The story is the usual hoyo quality. Everything requires stamina. There is specific currency you have to farm just to farm RNG artifacts. Action gameplay is focused on team synergy and QTE and there are a variety of minigames. If you like hoyo games you will probably like this one but if not then no point bothering. You can say that you can drop hoyo games if you wanted but here you are picking up a hoyo game again lmao
Shame the gameplay looks cool but it's loaded up with furries so it'll be another furry infested community.
>>1406874Good, it's filtering normalfags already.
>>1407220>furfags>not a normalfag
Imagine playing the same repetitive 3 games in a row just with different skin. Couldn't be me.
>>1407234yeahi can tell this is gonna be the same shit as genshit and shit railafter the initial honeymoon phase ends, all you do everyday is log in for the daily chores and grind endlessly for months to get that one favorable substatfuck that, i am not even gonna download this mihomoslop
>>1402640>obsessive waifufag fanbase crying about a lack of fanservice is gonna be obnoxious enough to make me quit.Ask me how I know you're trans
>>1407276both genshit and shit rail have terrible history of online discussion because of the obnoxious thirdie waifupags
>>1407220Yeah, just like jomeisukes do.I'm glad for you, anon, it's good for people to have their own spaces. There's also enough retarded furries to whale on the game and support it.
>>1407331You say this as if all the most profitable games arent games for retarded waifufags gambling for pixels.
>>1407412True! There's plenty of space elsewhere which is fine.
>>1407414So true friendo!
>>1407276Ask me how I know you're retarded.In the first most place most trannies are just lesbian porn obsessed degenerates, statistically most of them are "mtf lesbians" which is just a mentally ill way of saying "straight male." I dont know why you think that would exclude waifufags.
>>1406874>another furry infested community.>"""community"""Just don't partake in ""communities"" and you'll be fine, not just the furfags but the entirety of Mihoyo's cancerous fanbase in general. Besides, the entire 5-star launch roster (both standard and limited banner) will be almost all cute girls, you'd have to be really unlucky to get spooked by the ice furry with your first guaranteed 5-star character.
>>1402640Good. Glad to know its working. Get out.
>>1407598>GeT oUt
>>1407282>>1407420>>1407412You will never be a real woman btw
new girl
>>1408633
>>1402149von Lycaon hot
>>1408635>>1408633Can wait for the censorship
>>1408691she is already censored, head to toeonly thing she's missing is a burqaa
>>1408633>another new unappealing and overdesigned hoyoshit characteryeah im skipping this
>>1408712yeah, i knew this game wont be any differentonce again, it looks like one person is in charge of all the decisions because that red+black theme is not going off the frame for even a second, and the clothes are overdesigned mess
>>1408635>outfit specifically downplays her ass and tittiesI swear good artists get wasted on gay-ass games like these sometimes
>>1408849Why are you still here? We know the game is censored hell.
>>1408898I wanna see how badly they ruin the nun's design
>is listed as a 16+ game>still censored anywayWaterkuma is probably pissed off all the time while working for them
>>1409410Selling your soul to a literal homofag company was a mistake. I wish some other gacha would've picked up on him instead since he has a style that no other current gacha has.
Will this game actually having compelling roguelike gameplay?
>>1409731i dont even know what roguelike meansdoes that mean this game will be even more grindy than the other hoyoslop? because i dont have time to waste on a single mobile game. i have a job
>>1409770I saw somewhere before that ZZZ will be a roguelike gacha game. Binding of Isaac, Hades, Enter the Gungeon, FTL, Slay the Spire, and Dead Cells are some popular examples.
>>1408633holy shit im saving for her fuck the shark girl
i am still hoping for some interesting and refreshing characters like billy, ben, soukakuotherwise this is just genshin/star rail but with urban theme and most of the characters feeling like they are reskinned versions of themselves
When does it even launch
>>14099402024
>>1410015that's right now!
>>1409940>>1410035the game publishing permit is expire on october 2024
>>1408633>>1408635>Another character leaked>Doesn't wear some wuxia outfitToo many accessories but honestly better than the cocktail dresses. Keep 'em coming.
>>1410283yeah, it really is a miraclei don't even care about censorship as long as the designs aren't the same slop they are overcrowding the other two games with
>>1410285It could have been a lot better though, something kinda like pic related would have done the job. Still, the less wuxia swordfags and asymmetrical dresses we get, the better.
>>1402548good. Thank fucking god we won't inherit the godawful genshin fanbase
>>1410414No, you'll inherit the furfaggot fanbase instead.
>>1410416That's unironically much better than the regular hoyoshit fanbase filled with thirdie coomers who do nothing but fling shit among each other in every single one of their threads.
>shittering flopeven the paid streamers are saying it's mideven the $10 buy to play game ex astris looks more promising than floppering slop
>>1410416meidos are better at removing furfag shit than /v/ tier kankerposting>>1410435retard
>>1410435>He thinks ZZZ threads won't be a permanent cesspool like genshit/star rail threads just because there are a few furry characters thrown in the mix.Nice delusions dipshit. Next you're gonna tell me twitter won't be as bad either.
>>1410504furries still better than having these people on your community
>no you don't understand! furries are wholesome and rich peoplenice to see retard still thinks this way until they spam the chat with scats and horsecocks.
>>1402548lol that game is already bombing
>>1410591what happened ?
>>1410603boring ass genshin wannabe with awful story and character designsevery single streamer paid to shill it said it was mid
>>1410643>CBT2 hype died after just one day thanks to Acheron leaks>Elden Ring DLC make it even more deadyeah tectone is coping lol
>>1410653lol i don't even play genshit or shit rail but this is so embarrassingsome people literally make their living out of hating hoyo and genshin
>>1410603literally nothing
I've never seen any gameplay of WW but people sure do love talking about it
Not enough cute boys or even cute furry boys
>>1410531Why do they make ugly faces? Why do they have such bad hairlines?
I want hot guys that I can goon to
>>1411006It's just the local Hoyoschizo
>>1410531You can't really call big name e-celebs part of the community when it's their job to milk their braindead audiences for money, which applies to all media in general. They only bother to play Homoverse games (and whatever new trendy game is out there) just for views and cash.
>>1411032
>>1410531It's worse because zzz will have both kek
>furfags and furfags apologistsIt's already begun
>>1411665I fucking love Ben's big fatass and von Lycaon in garterbelt.
I want cute dumb himbo malesGenshin and star rail don't have those
>>1411665Bye. In a game with like 2 furries and 50 waifubait characters I dont terribly care if this game fails anyway.
>>1411740Same for Ben, dont care for the wolf.Ben alone can only keep my attention for so long.
some npcs
>>1413341new art
For me it's Elfy
>>1413343cute but whose hand is that ? not sure that is miyabi we only know for now section 6 faction only have 2 characters
>>1413341Top right one runs one of the stores right?>>1413353Same. I'm just waiting for the big leak featuring an actual playable robot girl. I don't care how many dudes and furries I have to skip, just give me ONE like pic related and I'll be maxing her out in dupes and all.
chat emojis
hoyo has registered trademark (星布谷地) of their other game, which is believed to be similar to animal crossing
>>1413876>shit game now with gacha Real exciting news anon, thanks.
>>1414116i dont see it doing well personallyheartopia looks more exciting
pre-order available now on china
>>1414842is this not gacha or is the trannylator not translating correctly?
>>1414842Cute frog. What is that?
>>1408633>>1408635this seems to either be an npc, or a character from a new faction called n.e.p.s. (new eridu police station)miyabi and soukaku belong to the section 6 factionthere is another design from the n.e.p.s. faction, but it looks like an npc
>>1417367hope she is playable because i will save my rolls for her maybe they announced her on CBT3 announcement
>almost everyone has black hair or red eyes or bothyawn, typical talentless creativelet hoyoslop
>>1419319>>almost everyone has black hairgood, crayon hair is for gays
>>1419377no blonde = no playsorry, hoyoslurpy
>>1419319at least not everybody have chinese name and look the same
>>1409731no. there is a mode where you go on randomized expeditions on the tv map but in previews everyone said the random buffs you get from it are basically ignorable dogshit so it always plays the same
>>1419756>18 confirmed playable characters so far>mfw none of them are le wuxia swordswmanIt's gonna be a good launch without the chinkslop wank, at least for a month or two.
>>1420081first 3 chapter not covering chinkslop inspired location is already very good start compare to Genshin and HSRhell on wuthering wave your first country is china land
>>1419377>tranime argument opinion discarded
>>1420226>hell on wuthering wave your first country is china landThat, and they're launching with like +11 chink characters day one, miss me with that shit.
why the game keep getting traction on china ? there is literally nothing happened not even marketing
>>1421837because chinks worship mihoyo, theres a reason so many of them run a defense campaign for them for free
>>1421892what about kuro games fans defending wuwa ?
>>1422244chinese hipsters who think they are better because they root for the less popular thing
after ex astris, i dont ever wanna get into fomo gachacan more chinese companies make proper paid anime rpgs please?
>literally no one askedwoah calm down shill.
>>1421837>China will keep my husbando alive while /vmg/ just endlessly bitches about censorship or whateverThats fine I guess.
https://twitter.com/ZZZ_EN/status/1768849704534581268CBT3 in two days?
>>1425292it's like tommorow for asia cuz today is already 16th
>>1425336Oh okay. I doubt they added any substantial changes (besides core QoL updates) if their last CBT is happening this soon.
>>1425341It's not a beta you dumbfuck
>>1425436what is it then ?
>>1425587Release date obviously. It was the same for Star Rail.
>>1425607so we gonna see da wei again back to back after HSR stream ?
CBT3 confirmed. Judging by the trailer it seems we got a new character to test out and more Bangboos I guess? >>1425607>>1425436Dumb retards.
Place your bets: May-June release
>>1425700>>1425764>censored Nicole featured on marketingHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>1425806I'm betting my chips on May-June as well, they took an entire year for the tweaks and content we got from CBT1 to CBT2, no way they have something very substantial just in three months later since last November.
and droppedknew this would turn out to be typical hoyoslop with censorship and chinese cock shoved down the throat
>>1426751>character in chinese game has chinese namewhy does this make you sperg so much
>>1426751Did you not notice that the game takes place in post-apocalyptic China
>>1426751Holy kek they just can't help themselves
>>1426762We just got past the chinkwank in Star Rail and now they're looking to shove it back down our throats in a few months>>1426765You'd never guess that from the characters alone, not without a dedicated chink faction. The cop doesn't even look all that chinese
>>1426791Anon, this isn't even Chinawank. This is just a character having a chink name.
>>1426762why do you love sucking chinese cock so much?
>>1426822I just don't understand why "Character in Chinese game has a Chinese name" is such a big deal. It's not like they gave the chick a traditional Chinese outfit that looks absurdly out of place or anything.This is like getting mad that a chick in a Japanese game is named Noriko Masahiro or some shit.
>>1402255>Western weebs see men and recall how every faggot infested Gacha went down the line*
>>1426840This
>Chink character but she's not wearing one of these.The whole point of ZZZ is that half their roster isn't wearing some bland variant of pick related you dumb monkeys.
Not enough men
not enough edgy femme chinese males with long hair wearing girly overdesigned chinese clothes and in secret gay relationships with other edgy femme chinese "males"
>>1426835>It's not like they gave the chick a traditional Chinese outfit that looks absurdly out of place or anything.you know thats the first 5-6 months worth of character releases
>>1426887So far every single male character besides the protagonist Is pretty manly.
I filled out the Survey. Does that also preregister me for the next CBT? I'm confused
>>1426877Blame the armpitfag on the dev team
Am I signed up? I seriously can't tell
>Playing a Chinese game>uhhhhhhh why is this game pro-China???Play a GOOK or JAP action game
>>1427021Funny that you can play both of those without being bombarded with nationalistic propaganda.
>>1427049literally what fucking JRPG in the last 20 years hadn't had some amount of katana wanking at the BARE minimum
>>1426977If you logged in with your hoyo account and finished the survey after, then yeah that's about it. You're probably not getting in like almost everyone here though.
>>1427058Katana are just simply that cool, unlike chinks propaganda which always come in a set.
>>1427049This isn't true in the slightest lmao
>>1427049this, but hoyofags are so retarded they think other chinese games do the same chinwank shiteven other chinese games dont jack china off this hard
>>1427248It actually is
>>1427347Yes it is, you play a jap shit and they will let you know their country is the bestYou play a gook shit and they will let you know their country is the bestThey have the best cultureThe richest historyThe strongest weaponsEven the White Man kneels for their random western country is inferiorThe White Man can tell Asians apart but only when it's them
>>1427357Wrong
>>1427357shut up chang
Just two more kills...two more kills is all I ask.Fucking build fags in gimp suits. The definiton of clowns.I hate this build spam.
>>1411006If it's like HSR then it's crap. If it's like Genshin I might give it a try. Although I prefer Genshin's setting over ZZZ's urban focused.
Would anyone happen to know the artist?
>>1430409waterkuma?
>>1430409Why would you care? The designs have been censored and butchered to hell and back.Even after doing fully functioning 3D models.
>>1430872because he makes good designs and want to to see his other works to support him?
>>1430872>The designs have been censored and butchered to hell and back.but they haven't done anything to ben
>>1431141Your words are wasted on the mentally ill
>>1402255Not everyone wants to see balls and dicks, if that's what you want to show to people, then that must mean you're a faggot and I congratulate you for coming out, it's pretty difficult to come out these days knowing how much oh so bad anti-LGBT bills and laws pass every single day that ruins the gay man's life where he can't stretch their asshole in front of children without getting arrested and a troon's life where they can't force kids to transition and feed them porn.>>1402279>Gayme has husbando>The entire fanbase will be filled with foids, mentally ill fags, furries, and pooners, the pooning out rate will increase by 500% once this game is released.>>1402664Don't forget mentally ill troons and faggots from the west where they either screech about how everyone's gay uwu or they're just degenerate coomers.>>1403140>>1410531Furfags should never be accepted into any community in any shape or form, all they do is complain about muh wypipo and act like a degenerate but it's okay because they're part of a protected class so they'll get a pass anyway. As for the YouTuber, they're just shills so they have to fake how good this game is or they'll lose revenue>>1410581This, man. That's why I generally avoid furries at all costs, all they ever do is post about horse cocks and post some genuinely illegal shit like zoo animal cruelty cub CP and no wonder why people hate them and their community, the second furfags are in a game or something, I just leave and avoid it like the plague.Any president out there please outlaw gaychas, it has nothing of value and it just encourages gambling, just so fags can get an anime girl png and they don't get anything in return
Nobody asked retard.
hoyoshills are mentally ill people, just like tendies
wake up babe new furdaddy dropped UwU
>>1439060
>>1439062I dont see this, am I being trolled
>>1439060>>1439062fucking lol
>>1439062>>1439060I like him better than Lycaon at least. I dont love him but hes fine.
>>1439060>>1439062it's fake, this is someone's furry OC
>>1439121Youre probably right, pretty well done for a fake though.
>>1439139>probably rightI'm literally right. It's just this furfag streamer's avatar.https://x.com/kaleochu
>>1439142Oh well, didn't like that much anyway.
>>1439060>>1439062kek It got me for a second.
CBT3 doko
>>1439060>>1439062dont get my hopes up like this sis
Do they start sending out the invites tomorrow? I don't wanna keep waiting...
What killed the hype?
>>1446900They didn't make enough new discovery posts
>>1446900didn't release it soon enough now wuthering waves is taking the lonely neets with deep pockets away from them + dry genshin patch making their fans scream "dead game bad company( not wrong btw)" + honkai star rail just dropped the greatest patch date in their game
>>1446900Mega censored. Shit character design for uncesored characters. Gameplay is shit. There's like a million new console, PC and mobile new releases or near to release to get exited about that are better than this. No marketing. This is clearly a low budget side project for mihoyo, there are not expecting great returns to they are not investing much. Even mihoyo players are not retarded enough to spend their time and money on a low budget title, which is the only good thing about their games.Basically, what would have happened to genshin if it didn't lucked out.
Beta test starts on the 18th
>>1446900There's nothing to talk about until CBT3 comes in, and then the same sheeple that plays star rail and genshin will hype it up until the test ends.>>1447818Hope to see Miyabi in one week then.
>>1446900taking too long to release what appears to be a honkai impact 3 reskin with no verticality but with "roguelike" tv sectionsmaybe they are working on censoring even more than they already have, since they already ruined the one character most of the people excited for this were interested innow what's next? oh yeah, more chinawank slop has also been confirmedthe one time hoyo gave us the illusion that it wont be similar to their other shit games, they butcher it hard before release
>>1447818cannot wait to see how much damage they done this time
>>1447881>>1447882You're mentally ill
Look at her go!
>>1447894sup hoyoshill
>>1447894>hurrrr just consoom product no matter how shit it is because big company is le goodhoyoslurpers really are the nintendrones of gacha
>>1447896>these designsnot even the fat bear bothers me, but geez, this is going to be a game for the rizzler no cap fr frers for sure
>>1447894I hope she spooks me even if she's a standard character guaranteed to get power crept in a couple of months post-release.
>>1448093meant for >>1447896
Did anyone get an email yet saying they're in the beta test? I don't wanna get my hopes up for nothing
>>1448320I won test qualification in the roulette but nothing yet
and the game is now completely ruined
>>1450556Were support characters not a thing before or something?What changed?
>>1450561The only major effect of this change, besides characters being categorized by specialty, is that w-engines will behave like lightcones in Star Rail. They can still be used by any character for their stats, but their effects are locked to an assigned class now.
>>1450561Looks like they were working on this since the last beta because if I recall correctly, we didn't have classes or paths before, but now we doGuess this will make grinding characters just as tedious as Star RailThe only saving grace is this isn't turn based, so you still have some liberty at managing the defensive stats for your supports
>>1450561It's just Genshin Impact 2.0 now and your teams now have to be properly built instead of just picking your favorites
>>1450589Son of a bitch, I was hoping they wouldn't do that.
>>1450594You don't. ZZZ is a game you can solo with level 1 characters if you want/have the skill.
>>1448850No e-mail yet. Getting worried.
>>1439060>>1439062>men are allowed to be sexy>male furries are allowed to be sexy>i'm talking full-on all the way, they have a snout furry>yet, for some reason, women are not allowed to be sexyMe HoMo
>>1450596yeah, good luck spamming the same 3 buttons for an entire day to defeat the street level 1 boss
>>1450657I'm not saying it will be the best thing ever or that it will be fun, just that team comps and min maxing will not be as important as Genshin or Star Rail
>>1450589>nowIt was like that from the startWhy didn't anyone listen when I said this game was team-based and also had artifact RNG cancerYou're not going to solo with Ben because he moves like molassesYou're not even going to solo with Nicole
>>1450632ccp owned and women company, purease undastand
>>1450686There are multiple Chinese gachas that have proved that the CCP actually has nothing to do with the self imposed censorship that Me HoMo employs. It's 100% Me HoMo's choice to censor women and to sex up boys (and furries)
>>1450689Yes because most women are the only people in china who have the free time to play gacha games while the men work
>>1450698>Genshin's female banners are the ones that make the most moneyNo side of the pro-censorship narrative ever holds up to scrutiny
>>1450699Lot of closet lesbians, you can't be publically lgbt in chinaEZ
>Didn't shill the game at all>Somehow got a random test invite emailAnyone else?
>>1450867Holy fuck you made me check my e-mail and I got inLET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIf I could choose, I would have rather been in cbt1 but I'm still really fucking happy about thisBut yeah, I also didn't shill really
>>1450874Unironically surprised considering a lot of their invites are rigged to creators and shills. They probably checked my pixiv link and saw my mediocre drawings thinking I can give them free advertisement. How long was the previous CBT btw? Might have to reschedule a bunch of shit so I can play as much as I can if only lasts a week.
>>1450884CBT2 lasted for a full month
>>1450884CBT1 was only 3 days iirc, but CBT2 was a month
>>1402149both zzz and ww are designed like shit, there is nothing to look out for other than character animations
>>1450867>>1450874>>1450884kek looks like most people lost interest after the last beta
>got inbros......
>sign up for both>never got inhave fun guys
Who will be the best reroll target once it's live?
So can someone give a QRD of what's the gameplay loop of this game beyond doing the main story?
>>1450999Same as Genshin/HSR, use stamina (called battery charge) to grind materials to use on characters directly, or to grind plating agents (another material) to craft relics/artifacts (disks) with random statsThe endgame is Hollow Zero mode which is similar to SU in HSR>>1450992Ellen, first limited 5* duh
>>1451002I see, there seems to be no gacha weapon so that's good i guess.
>>1451006You can get "weapons" from gacha, but in cbt2 they didn't have their own banner. They might do that in cbt3 though.The "weapons" work more like light cones in HSR imo, they're stat sticks that don't change your character visually, and they have their own rarity.You can equip 7 things to your character, a W-Engine (weapon/light cone) and 6 disk drives (relics).
>>1450999waste an hour navigating a grid and then spam 3 buttons for the actual battle gameplay for like 5-10 minutes
>>1451016>They might do that in cbt3 though.Really? That would suck indeed
>>1451030I mean, the gacha at all didn't really "exist" in cbt1 was only brought in with cbt2. I'm pretty sure they're gonna add it. A separate bangboo banner possibly too.
Got the email lads
>>1450579did you expect anything else from mihomo?
>HoyoPlay launcherwell that's new to me
Didn't really follow the lore or anything since I thought that'd be silly to do when the game isn't out yet and things could be rewritten at any moment, but did cbt2 hint anything about Anby and Soldier 11 being "clones" with the same background or something of the like? I kinda got that feel way back when soldier 11 was first shown already
>73gb unzipped on PCThe fuck? Why is it so big? Genshin is goddamn 104gb, and you're gonna tell me ZZZ is already 3/4th of that?
>>1451036>A separate bangboo banner possibly tooThis is the only thing I have a real issue with. It's retarded to complain about artifacts and "weapon" banners since Genshin and HSR had them so naturally you'd have them here, but an extra "equipment" banner to spend gems for is just stupid. Unless you can farm those pets in-game with money I'm just gonna ignore them.
>>1451210These bangboos are kinda like a "4th character you can't control", and mihoyo has done such a thing before with ELFs in HI3, and seeing just how similar ZZZ is to HI3, I do see them adding such a special bangboo banner. But even there those are pretty much just whale-stuff in HI3.Bangboos pretty much just deal minor damage and give a team-wide buff like "team gets X% of Crit Rate" or pic related for example. They're not important at all and just help if you want to counterbalance bad disk luck. You get tons of them thrown at you by just doing regular gacha too, there's really no need to whale for a specific one, if they do add such a bangboo banner.
>>1451210>>1451217I completely ignored them in HI3 and it does seem like there's at least a bunch of poverty ones so that you can slot in something, a bit like PGR.
>>1451217You can control them a little bit now, but just for one attack though.
>>1451130it's 50 gb of mihomo dialogue lol>>1451210what were you expecting here? it's a typical jewhoyo game. they are gonna steal every last dollar out of your pockets
>>1451130It's a beta. It hasn't been optimized.
>>1451210Genshin is the only game where the weapons actually matter, HSR has a ton of F2P options that work just as well, you just have to share them between your DPSes so there's a slight lack of convenience I doubt they'd go back to that otherwise this game would absolutely die on release
>>1451300I sure hope it uses a weapon banner closer to the HSR one either way, the genshin one is gigacancer in comparison.
>>1451219>>1451217Yeah I was planning to use all the welfare/4-star gear we'll get anyway so even if the bangboos have their own gacha banner I will just not spend gems on it, simple as. I barely rolled in HSR/Genshin and I cleared their endgames just fine. ZZZ will be exactly the same.>>1451300>Genshin is the only game where the weapons actually matterDo they matter now? I used to clear Abyss with full-stars fielding the classic national teams and my C0 Raiden + The Catch spear back in the day. How bad is it now? Haven't really played since Dehya came out.
>>1451316National and stuff like hyperbloom still works, really. Some powercreep for sure but I'd still say that a wide variety of teams can clear with little issue. HSR is a bit rougher in that regard imo.
>>1450556Man it's dead obvious which classes are gonna be meta for the entirety of the game's lifespan>Attacker/Support>Stunner for bossesAnd which ones are bricks until they get buffed>DoT>"Defense" in a game where you can just dodge/parry and not get hit
Seems like they more or less listened to the complains and made the TV shit a bit faster to navigate.
>>1451515>still takes most of the playtimebruh
How many hours until beta begins?
>>1451544~22 hoursPretty gay that it starts at like 5 am for me
>>1451544In about 21 hours
>they added a "challenge mode" to the main storyLet's hope it's not just hp bloat
>>1451515that wasnt even the issue actuallythe issue is, most of the actual playtime is navigating tv screens, with little combat sections in between
>>1451641we now have 20 confirmed characters4 from cunning hares: NEKOMATA, nicole, anby, billy4 from belobog construction: KOLEDA, GRACE, anton, ben4 from victoria housekeeping: LYCAON, ELLEN, RINA, corin2 from hollow special operation section 6: MIYABI, soukaku1 from obols squad: SOLDIER 114 from sons of calydon: lucia, caesar, lucy, lighter (all unknown rarities)1 from new eridu public security: zhu yuan (unknown rarity)
>>1451641watch as this beauty salon is purely just a prop with no feature to customize the characters or buy cosmetics
>>1451770I can see them actually allowing us to customize Belle and Wise to some degree, especially because those 2 aren't used in combat. And even ignoring them, mihoyo would be silly to not do outfits for playable characters, let's hope the ZZZ devs treat this game like hi3 doesBut since they announced it today that stuff is gonna be in the beta tomorrow, I'll check it out
>>1450556which is gonna be the brick path?my guess is attack and support are the only ones worth rolling fordefense is THE ultimate brick, seeing as this game allows players to dogde and block attacksi still think this path system is a bad thing as it ultimately makes characters useless just like star rail's hunt characters
>>1451777yes, that's my hope toothis isn't like genshin that requires shitloads of tweaking for the different traversal animations so hopefully they will give us cosmetics, but you should know they haven't given us a single cosmetic in star rail
>beta only allows one device per platform makes sense but now my autistic ass is going to be concerned it derps out the moment I switch from wifi to mobile data on phone
>>1451784Nothing happened just now when I turned my wifi off while in the login screen (while logged in), take that as you will
they really butchered her design
I'm not really knowledgeable about this kind of stuff, but the other mihoyo games require you to run them as admin because of the anti-cheat, right? The ZZZ launcher/HoYoplay launcher doesn't require this, does it mean they changed something about the anti-cheat? But I guess this could just mean it's not implemented since it's still just beta
>>1451790how
>>1451808you really are a fucking retard
>>1451816he is a mihomo shill
>>1451816Give a reasonable answer because you sure as hell can't claim "censorship"
>1451832not even trying with your bait huh, mihomo shill?
>>1451820and somehow he's still denying it ever happened, they didn't even update his script
>he's had 5 months to cope with the fact that the censorship happened>instead of leaving the game/ignoring it because of that he still posts in threads about said game
>>1451790>tits nerfedI sleep>hotpants nerfPretty close to pulling an aoba shinji honestly
>>1451836>>1451837Can you try and communicate like a human now?
>>1451839He's shitting up other upcoming gacha threads with his delusional expectations as well.
>1451872Nice projection at least I have more solid conformation that the /gig/shill is the one shitting up the azur promilla thread
>>1451874Nice confession through projection btw oyohim social worker

>>1451983Racism
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2jboOEMt9IThis came up on my recommendedWhy the fuck are the cats allowed to have balls? Why is everything female censored, but now even cats are allowed to have balls? Like, they definitely didn't need to render a cat's balls, you know. They made shorts longer, they made boobs smaller, they made UI character poses unsexy, and now they added balls to the cats
>>1451983Ruh roh, gweilo detected
>>1451991nekomiya fucks these cats btw. she makes more strays with them to increase her power over the area.
>>1452003>nekomiyaI thought her name was Nekomata
>>1452004her actual name is Nekomiya Manai actually don't know where Nekomata comes from, but I think it's supposed to be a title?
>>1452006How does the game work? Do I have to reroll to get this character? Is there a 4*/5* system or is it something else
>>14520114*/5* are called A-Rank/S-Rank here.She's a standard banner S-Rank, so you could reroll for her, yes.The only free characters are Anby, Nicole and Billy
>>1452012>She's a standard banner S-Rank, so you could reroll for her, yes.Is there some sort of beginner banner like there was for Star Rail, or is there some sort of accelerated way to get characters in the beta?
>>1452016>beginner bannerThere was no such thing in cbt2 at least. They might add it in cbt3, we'll have to see in a few hours.They also sent out 2 S-Rank selectors during cbt2 to test characters with, and 1 S-Rank W-Engine (weapon) selector.They'll probably do the same in cbt3.
>>1452017>They also sent out 2 S-Rank selectors during cbt2 to test characters with, and 1 S-Rank W-Engine (weapon) selector.Sick, thanks for the heads up and for answering my questions
>>1452016There wasn't a beginner banner, but the Standard banner had the discounted 50 rolls into guaranteed S-Rank
mihomo shills really are the most mentally ill "people" on this site, right after tendies
I just hope it's an actual selector instead of this fucking "random 5 star standard character" crap in star rail for 50 pulls I don't wanna reroll accounts all day during launch for the one I want
>>1452115I'm just gonna go with the heart of the cards. Rerolling is for an account that wont get wiped.
>>1452115you WILL get the furry wolf and you WILL learn to like his faggy furry dick in your ass
How would you even reroll on a beta in the first place? There's only one account, right?
it will begin anytime now, right?i hope you retards post screenshots
>another character with black hair>another character with red eyesvery talented character designers working at shittoyo
>>1452129We're 30 minutes out
>>1452127But Anon, I WANT THE WOLF
IT'S UP
>>1452142first time the female mc looks better than the male mcGuess I'm transitioning into a woman for this game
>>1452147neither of them are (you) though
>>1452147hoyo genuinely cannot design males that appeal to malesthese males are specifically made to appeal the female audience, unlike typical anime males
they are running short on testers
standard selector at 300 pulls
>>1451667>>1451778the imbalance will always surprise me, even though i know it's a hoyo gameright now, we only have one anomaly and one ether element character
>>1452165>literally copying Wuthering Waveskek
>>1452176They already did it with Star Rail
stamina increased to 240
>>1452196how much was before?
>>1452199It was 180 before, I think
>>1452199120, then 180
It's cool to see the HSR ghost hunting event DNA being carried over into the main game in zzz. I always liked reading their funny inane nonsense
>zero hypeit owari dashould NOT have touched nicole like that! SHOULD NOT!
>>1452176my guy hoyo has a habit of copying shit from other people at the speed of light, they copied things even from snowbreak for fucks sake
>>1452233Don't reply to yourself. The 5* selector is literally mechanically identical to the one featured in star rail.
>>1452254>if you don't like hoyo you have to be the same personalright chang
>>1452255Different guy here. I'm this person >>1452180I don't like Hoyo either, but they already did this 300 selector with Star Rail. First time I've seen it was Star Rail. WuWa isn't even out yet, so WuWa copied Star Rail. It's that simple. What did they copy from Snowbreak?
>absolutely no new info>just retards chimping out with each otherwhat went wrong?
>>1452262relatively minor things, but hoyo changed BP to go past level 50+give extra gems at level 1 of BP instead of 50, they did it one patch after Snowbreak changed itThe new banner in Genshin, where you choose which character becomes the pity is *almost* exactly how the standard banner works in Snowbreak
i personally think all gachas should adopt a system where we get a token of some sort of either the 3 star, 4 star or 5 star rarity that can be used to exchange for the weapon/character we wantof course they can also implement a new kind of 5 star token for the limited banners to replicate the guaranteed pityno more getting spooked by crap you dont want
>>1452278>>absolutely no new infoThe newest CBT started only several hours ago, anon
>>1452278>no newNothing is uncensored. TV is still omnipresent. Dates are still nothingburger. Nothing is uncensored. Nicole boobs aren't reverted. Grace's cleavage is not reverted. Nothing is uncensored.Oh and they didn't address the censorship at all.
>>1452305I'm not sure why anything would expect them to revert censorship?
>>1452306>revert censorshipI think because WuWa did it a little bit, people thought Genshin might throw their """tech otaku""" bros a bone. Nope. Still dragging them by the balls
>>1452307old hoyo is deadmihomo only creates sparkly trash nowwatch as some really butthurt, snarky hoyoshill immediately jumps in to defend his favorite billion dollar company
>>1452309b-but muh GAMEPLAY in a mobile game!!!!!!

Bros...
>>1452384hype is completely dead zzzbronot single drop of new info
>>1452387Sure I'll bite.Some other things I noticed:Nicole is a parry character nowYou can use bangboo chain attack with no cooldown if using a character soloThere's a shop that you buy up to A-rank weapons for currency and some materialsBangboo summon currency is only obtainable through gameplay it seemsI sure there's plenty more changes, but it's going to take time to sus sout
>>1452325IT HAS NO STYLEIT HAS NO GRACETHIS "GAMEPLAY" IS A FUCKING DISGRACE>>1452396>all changes that are in line with either HSR or hoyoshit in general
>all the censoring It's meaningless in the grand scheme of things, but man if it doesn't saddens me
the bigger problem to me is the black and red used in almost every single character designthis is on top of the over-designing hoyo loves to doi dont know how much i can tolerate, but the faggy looking males and same-y looking chingchong dresses in hsr made me quit it very quickly
>>1452161>typical anime malesTypical anime males look just like him but with brown hair and brown eyes
>>1452161>hoyo genuinely cannot design males that appeal to malesben is hot as fuck what are you on about
>>1452534Perhaps anon should have said 'that appeal to straight men'
>>1452537>not liking the toku/gun autist robot
hoyofags are so mentally ill that they immediately think of sex when talking about character appeali genuinely wonder how hoyo managed to get so many stupid third world retards attached to their games with the anime art style
>>1451778But Ben was good in the earlier beta tests. More Defense actually increases the damage he did.

>>1452723you know what, you are righti havent seen any hype for this at all, despite the beta being open right now and and the game apparently being close to releasebarely anyone has posted anything from the game, it has been almost a day noweven on chinese sites like bilibili and taptap, there aren't many posts
>>1452728Haven't there been several betas already? I imagine there's not that much new stuff to cover (yet, if they added stuff that you unlock a bit later into the test).
How's the music?
>>1452743I'd say "good", but the issue is that there really aren't many tracks at all. It's very repetitive
>>1452736I would've talked about it if they reverted the censorship :3. Hopefully Waterkuma has already ditched their asses.
>>1452396>Some TV removedHow much exactly? The story missions still have some lengthy TV maze puzzle-solving
>>1452176>copying Wuthering Not even, Wuthering lets you choose your first standard 5 star at 80 pulls The standard banner in zzz is still a crapshoot
Hm, this tv stuff is kinda gay

hype completely deadlol
looks like they give out a free copy of corin through pre reg rewards, and soukaku for completing some "eridu frontier" event (probably similar to getting xiangling in genshin and qingque in star rail)a copy of ben is also given for another event that requires completion of story missions

>>1453532>Yes please burn your whole phone battery on 2 hours of gameplay every single day who cares about needing it an emergency if it dies!!!!!!!!!!!This is a weird mindset to have
>>1453349There's a fifth daily added at some point that allows you to choose two activities from a list to do for 500 engagement. I don't remember the other options but the two I chose were to take a picture of a cat on sixth street and buy ramen noodles
Can someone explain to me why a gacha with best combat in the market isn't in the contender for top 5 gacha in the world?
>>1454217Because Kuro is a dogshit company who fumbled every launch of PGR
>>1453535>The most popular mobile games require minimal engagement.Genshin.>>1453545>2 hoursIf you work that's about as much free time you should have, at home you can just keep it charging. Portable chargers also exist.
>Nekomata's counter doesn't even hit the enemy most of the timeHow the fuck does something like this get through QA?
Also, when does this beta test end?
>>1455294Don't know for sure. Most likely when the banner ends in about a month but there's nothing really substantiating that
>>1455322Makes sense.
>>1454217most people who want actual indepth combat prefer real gamesmost people who play gacha want to full auto their dailies and collect jpegsals gacha is not compatible with true skill based gameplay because of the p2w / powercreep aspect. and even besides that there's rpg stat systems which let you outgrind content instead of outskilling it.
>>1452560>hoyofags are so mentally ill that they immediately think of sex when talking about character appealthat's all gachafags on 4chan bro. hoyo threads are actually a little less bad about it, at least there are people who shitpost about cheld instead of posting about impregnating their wife all day in the general threads.also 99% of players in china where MHY is based
ngl zzzbros I'm in the beta and this game kinda boring. Its somehow more one button spammy than GI without the element reactions
>genshin's combat was only so 1-dimensional because of the open world crap, the new game with no open world should be much more engaging>somehow it ends up even more MORE simplified than genshin "QEQEQE" impact"how did they manage this
>>1455386I find it particularly offensive how the game will automatically perform an evasive assist if you try to parry an attack that can't be parriedlike yeah, it's a casual mobile game, but being rewarded for pressing the wrong button is just silly
>deliver the coffe beansEpic, just what I wanted, more chores
>>1455386I'm already bored, this is just a fancier HI3
>>1455386>>1455417this sounds way worse than I thought it'd be. Maybe WW has a chance after all.
>>1455455WW flopped already
yeah fuck this tv shit
Mark your calendars bitchesZZZ releases July 4 2024A little over 2 months before I can taste Von Lycaon's dog dick in 3D At fucking last...... CBTs be damned
>>1455487At this point I genuinely believe it has a wider chance of succeeding than ZZZ. Hoyo fucked up big time with this game on all fronts.
>>1455417>>1455386Get to Hollow Zero: Core. The game has genuine depth with the movesets, the issue is that it doesn't ever ask you to use it until the very end of the beta.
I really wish that all cutscenes were entirely in the comic book style. I don't like the abrupt switch to the VN style dialogue with the 3D models. The comic books scenes are cool, because you can just skip through the dialogue while still kinda being able to understand what's going on, and then you can stop to actually read if you feel like you need to. The 3D model VN style back and forth is just completely fucking soulless
>>1455592You just know comic book scenes will become rarer and rarer as the game goes on.
>furrieswhy
>>1455593Yeah, I would not be surprised at all if that happened. The fact that the 3D model VN thing even exists is already proof enough that this is bound to happen
>>1455289she's a brown character in a mihoyo game, she's supposed to be clunky and bad
>>1455594To filter normalfags.
>>1455616furries isnt even the problem in this game, its just going to be another run of the mill hoyoslop with no depth going for it (aka the exact kinds of normalfags youre talking about)
>>1455594They have to sell their button clicker simulator to SOMEONE, AnonWhy not the people singlehandedly fueling fighting game community sales?
I'm only level 14 Inter-Knot, god fucking damn why did they make a "knot" joke in a furry game and I'm already bored. I just want to play the fucking game and kill shit, because that's actually kinda fun, but they keep making me run around and talk to some NPC just so that I can walk back to the cafe over and over again. It's not comfy at all, it's annoying
>>1455637hoyo doesnt know how to create engaging gameplaywhat are you even expecting after already seeing their three other games?they all play the sameyou spend most of your time running around, talking, talking some more, and a little more talking, it's always good to talk, there was some other talking to be had chud, you will not dismiss the talking, and there, now you can enjoy your 5 minutes of actual gameplayand that's on top of the really bad overdesigned characters
>>1455722>after already seeing their three other games?I don't play hoyo games. I like the gameplay so far, I'm not tired of the gameplay yet, but actually playing the game is like 10% of the game
>>1455733>but actually playing the game is like 10% of the gameWelcome to Hoyoverse games!Our game design is "talk to this guy, talk to that guy, talk to 5 other guys, fight one enemy and then talk to that other guy to finish the quest"Hope you enjoy your stay!
I feel like these character action games lose appeal kinda quick. They're fun in bursts but long term it's kind of a chore because sometimes you venture into what feels like enemy sponge territory and you're just mashing forever. God bless games with turbo mode or emulation.
Wise or Belle? I don't think they'll add any (You) pandering to this game, and I can already smell the shipfaggotry. A male MC might be just for the usual fujo fantasies. Which is weird, because they're basically going for the same public as their other games. Do they plan to continue competing against themselves and cannibalize their other games' revenues?
yes.
>>1458265They both have a huge amount of screentime. It doesn't really matter who you pick, you'll be listening to or looking at both of them, all that changes is which one controls the bangboo and thus what they say. Pick whatever you want
Characters are sex but>story and world aren't interesting>writing is okay, tending to subpar>TV gameplay absolutely sucks balls, has potential to kill the game>we see combat once in a blue moonMaybe they'll want a gamemode with more combat, but overall I'm not feeling the game. Even if all characters were uncensored I'd still hate a hard time sticking to it.
>>1458265This game isn't really targeting a large female audience, or at least not one hoyoverse games usually appeal to. The lack of shoujo pretty boy, besides Wise I guess, shotas, femboys, or cute lolis kind of gives that impression. So no, I don't think there's THAT much character appeal overlap between ZZZ and other hoyo games.
>>1458302>TV gameplay absolutely sucks balls, has potential to kill the gameThis might just happen if they keep slapping hollow exploration TV grid gameplay in every patch after launch. The only way I think they can prevent this is by having a variety of different game modes, minigames, and puzzles, all of them being different in the way they look and play, which is just what HSR and Genshin have been doing all this time. Even the chinese players will get bored and fuck off if all the interactive content we're gonna get (outside combat and towns) is adapted into shitty TV puzzles.
>>1458265>Do they plan to continue competing against themselves and cannibalize their other games' revenues?Given that their other games give you 40 days to do 10 minutes of content per patch it won't be a problem
>>1458302For me its>character designs are boring and uninteresting, like all hoyo designs, everything feels too "safe" to be noteworthy>writing is whatever, I'm barely paying attention outside of comic book segments>that said, comic book segments are 10/10 and there should be more of these and there should be zero "visual novel" segments where your 3D models are "talking">TV dungeons are fine, I'm an oldfag and I played RPGs on the NES, but for the Genshin audience of zoomers, I can understand why they might not like the TVs>combat is legitimately fun and everything looks so fucking cool, especially the "WIPEOUT" screen, every button feels good to press, everything looks cool and everything is satisfying>...but you never fucking play the combat, the combat accounts for like 10% of the fucking gameWhen did the CBT start? I haven't logged in since this weekend I think. I'd log in if i was going go be playing the game, but I know that if I log in I'll have to watch some people talk about nothing, then I'll have to walk around one single street's worth of shops for like 5 minutes, then there will be another cutscene, then there's going to be a dungeon that takes longer than the combat, and at the end of it all I'll get to play the game for like 3 minutes of the 2 hours
TV/Combat is more like 50/50 when you're actually doing an investigation or hollow, higher rank hollows can lean towards more spent time in combat if your team is scrappy. Shiyu defense and rally are also entirely combat.
I will never comprehend why the fuck they spent the money to hire waterkuma, made models and animations, and then they threw it all away because of censorship.Like, they are part of the CCP, did they really thought they could get away with it? It was so obvious to anyone with a head that that shit will not fly, why waste time and effort into doing it in the first place.
>>1460141Marketing. Most gachas make their money back and then some on release, the rest is a plus. The original designs created a lot of hype that this otherwise TV simulator wouldn't build.
>>1455565A month after Solo Leveling Arise, it's already dead.
>>1460322Funny joke anon
>>1425833>>1425700>Cat is uncensored in marketingThey are fucking lying fucks, I swear
>>1460141>why waste time and effort into doing it in the first place.Considering there were no further design changes in CBT3, I'm willing to bet the dev team just shoved """inappropriate""" character designs at the beginning so that it would act as a lightning rod for censorship and they could sneak more subtle things, these subtle things being a bit of cleavage for Nicole (with actual shading, which is not present in Genshin and HSR) and Alexandrina's massive jiggly tits with the window on her skirt. If they went with "sanitized" concepts from the start we probably wouldn't have any of these spicy details in the first place. I know it's some high-grade copium but it's the only logical explanation I can think of. Also they probably just saw some of Waterkuma's regular art and decided it would fit the concept of the game regardless of his NSFW works.
>>1460520HSR literally has real cleavage, what the fuck are you talking about? Genshin is the only game where they stopped showing cleavage.
im blue
>>1460520>Waterkuma's regular art and decided it would fit the concept of the game regardless of his NSFW works.Which is still a big fucking disgrace that a prolific coom artist gets wasted on such bullshit. Now my only hope of getting any decent sex designs for 3D outside of snowbreak is on AP.>>1460536All safe designs that fail to match even half of the appeal of harem pngcollector characters.
>>1460545HSR isn't full-on coomer, but it's still miles ahead of Genshin.
>>1460536No it doesn't? It's almost a fully flat color unless you force the view from high angles. Nicole has shading and gradient that shapes her cleavage better and it's present all the time.
>>1460536>>1460593Black Swan has some definition but it's just flat shading, and just like Himeko it only takes shape from a certain angles. So far only Hanya has some properly shaped breasts but they had to slap a skinsuit on it to get approved, which is actually hotter imo but it doesn't count as exposed cleavage.
>>1460545>Now my only hope of getting any decent sex designs for 3D outside of snowbreak is on AP.Is there even any good 3D anime game from last year that has some fanservice? Maybe some years prior? I honestly don't want to put all my chips on chink kusoge
>>1460545>Now my only hope of getting any decent sex designs for 3D outside of snowbreak is on AP.Just dig through some old/obscure gachas if you don't mind the shitty gameplay. Even chink games can be a surprising gold minehttps://youtu.be/fQMfFuDfg2oAlso Nornium.>>1460604Best I can think of is Outerplane and Eversoul
>>1460520All of it is garbage comparing to how Grace looked like.
>>1460647>Outerplane and EversoulThose and vid related are just pngcollectors with 3d graphics rather than a game that gives you full control of your characters.
>>1460754>full control>you can press E, Q or swap to a different character
>>1460787Silly anon, he can move them around and pretend that makes it better than high quality 2D art.
>>1460787Only mihoyo makes the real 3D games
>>1460848>hoyoshit>real gamesbait used to be believable
>>1460853nta but I disagree that's bait. Yeah there's hundreds of hours of pointless dialogue but gameplay does in fact exist. The main problem with it and all Homoverse games is that it appeals to women and faggots.
>>1460888>but gameplay does in fact existwith HSR the gameplay is autobattlewith HI3 its button mashing the glowing buttons on the screen, ZZZ appears to do the samewith genshit its like 80% dialogue and 20% gameplay, and if having gameplay, no matter how bad, still counts, then we might as well reasses trash like the order 1886 and pretend thats a good game too
>>1460897Never said it was good
After reading the thread I have decided to not engage with ZZZ for the foreseeable future.
>>1461282Gameplay is good but you gotta have a lot of patience.
>>1461282Good, I want everyone except the furries to leave
>>1461282Like how anime only gets better through the years so do gacha games. It is best to wait on the next big thing.
>>1461390>Like how anime only gets better through the yearslol
