Looking back, it's kind of insane that Kafka released in 1.2 for HSR. Sucks that since ZZZ is more slice-of-life, there's really no 'important' playable story character. Don't really count Void Hunters since they carry no relation to Belle atm.

ZZZ seems sort of like early Honkai Impact atm where they're doing some relatively low stakes stuff before everything goes off the rails later on.
I appreciate that the plot is more methodical than some of the other Hoyo stuff but in exchange it feels kind of plodding at points.
>>
>>4300797
My issue is nothing has any real stake to it. I found myself barely caring about some of what was happening. For example when Nekomata revealed she actually wanted revenge on the Cunning Hares I forgot all about the guy she thought they killed, because he was such a throwaway character in the game. Also throwing so many new factions and characters at us so early in the game I feel prevents players really getting to know all the characters that well.
>>
>>4300812
I will say the writing is way better than HSR. That game has way too much yapping and the POV changing kinda sucks to me.

I also don't like how the different factions already know each other if the special events are anything to go
I just how hope later on they don't introduce powerscales or leave factions to gather dust after their chapter is over
>>
>>4300883
ZZZ dumping new characters at us so frequently already made older characters useless. If I have Burnice why would I need Koleda? The game is too young to already gave that issue.
>>
>>4300906
>made older characters useless
I agree with this to an extent, but
>If I have Burnice why would I need Koleda
This is nonsense sis. They fill completely different roles. Koleda is a stunner, Burnice is an off field anomaly/disorder DPS
Their only similarities is being fire and that Koleda can be played as a mostly off field stunner
>>
>>4300944
Better comparison would be Grace and Yanagi. I'm just happy I can finally get an Electric Anomaly DPS for my Rina instead of relying on standard banner RNG for Grace that I don't have.
>>
>>4300948
The game is so easy you really don't need either. I just use whoever I want and getting by easily. This isn't like HSR and Genshin.
>>
>>4300977
Not yet. But trying to play Neko without Caesar is still extremely questionable.
>>
>>4300981
I don't have nor would of bother to use either of them so I'll just take your word on that one.

Rina's my only S-rank, so of course I actually want to use her. She's still sitting at 40 because I have no use of her atm.

For those that haven't done the main story yet, the new HIA event lets you try out Burnice. She's so flashy that it's actually making my game lag.
>>
>>4300772
>Why does Hoyo keep doubling down on het Caesar for no reason?
They're not.
>>
>>4300797
It helps that the story has a much smaller scope than Genshin and HSR. They can afford to do some character-driven writing for once this time.
>>
>>4300812
>My issue is nothing has any real stake to it. I found myself barely caring about some of what was happening.

Star Rail has the same issue despite supposedly dealing with planetary or equivalent threats.
>>
>>4301140
Star Rail has no stakes because it's dealing with planetary/galaxy level threats
>>
>>4301195
Star Rail has no stake because the writer just love writting cheap cliffhanger to end patch without consideration as to how it would read as a one block story.
This story is the fakeout kingdom. After so many fakeouts, I don't care anymore about what happens to anyone.
>>
>>4300812
ZZZ story's has a rough start, it's not like it's outright bad imo, it's just very flat. It tries to have a light hearted and comedic tone with occasional serious moments, but doesn't pull it off and the serious moments don't land.
1.2 was a big improvement and it was the first time I got emotionally invested in the plot and characters
There are still problems but I'm looking forward to see them improve again in the next patch

They're doubling down on her being a Shoujo girlie which I guess means, if we're following some people's logic, she's straight?
Glad I never cared for Jane or her so all of this doesn't bother me in the slightest.
>>
>>4301040
There is only Corin. Corin can be played well with the robo cop (or other stunners, but they'd be all worse), but you only trigger her passive if you add physical or someone else from her faction. Rina is the only one that can be used there without it being silly.

That said, Rina isn't too great with her low buff uptime. People generally consider M1 necessary. But in Corin's case her advantage is that Corin gets her extra steroid, so it ends up better than anything else you can really do. Corin is also a burst dps that only really wants to deal with stunned elites/boss', so the short-ish uptime isn't too bad. I'd hope.

That said, now Caesar exists, and she is physical. And especially with robo cop, that's just much better as this also helps her damage by quite a significant amount.

Legitimately nothing het has been shown with her, fuck're you on about? Yet, anyway. So, fingers crossed.

Feixiao is honestly just a poorly handled character with or without her two yes-men
I've never felt so indifferent to a character I should have liked before. Ended up skipping her for Robni and then (miraculously) got Lingsha with the few rolls I had left.

Also no idea what the hell you're on about for Mavuika
>>

Ironically that's how most people feel towards Lingsha. She might just be one of the most forgettable characters in the game. She came out at a terrible time. After Feixiao, around the same time as Xilonen, and at the same time as Shorekeeper in WuWa.

When the difference between average and the tallest girl in the entire cast is just 15cm that's kind of an issue, no? Or to put it another way, there's plenty of hoyoverse characters who are more than 15cm shorter than the average height. Why isn't the inverse possible?

That's not very surprising with Star Rail. Not one character sine Penacony has been written well. The fact that Penacony's main story has 0 character development made the whole thing feel skippable, or just a glorified event. The only thing of note is that we got Harmony Stelle. Even Firefly's character development came after the main story was finished. How do you write a multi part story where no one grows as a character.

But one of the things that made me the most mad was them teasing Constance and a whole subplot involving her, Swan and Acheron, but again, nothing happening with it. What the fuck.
We also never saw Acheron struggling because of her memory loss and having to rely on her emotions. Sure I didn't expect her to be Dory, but she had zero troubles because of it. They should also have kept her as a threatening force for longer. Even if it was obvious she wouldn't be evil and kill us unless there was not a huge reason because she is the Mei expy, it could have been exciting. It just hurts to see the dance trailer and then Acheron turn out to be super nice 1 minute later.

If Tingyun turns out to be her shipmate Feixiao might just clutch it. Hoyo thought the only thing people cared about Acheron was the powerlevels and made a waifu that is nothing but that!

What they did to her and Sparkle is criminal. Both got really cool and evocative trailers, but then they amounted to nothing but a plot device and a wet fart

Better than Genshin at least, where there's never really any characters that're ever anything other than generally nice and gracious.
>>
>>4307131
True, I can begrudgingly accept this as an excuse for not exploring her lore and the whole "find me/your end in my origin" thing in her trailer (Which maybe it was just Robin calling out to her, but I'm not too sure), but the memory loss thing and her possibly being dangerous to the main cast could have been amazing.

>>4307150
Sparkle indeed managed to be treated worse than Acheron. Not sure whether she or Robin were the most neglected characters

>>
>>4307151
I fully disagree. Sure they are nice and gracious, but they have more personality and a deeper backstory. If you're not from Belobog or Luofu good luck having any personality.
>>
>>4307415
NTA, but I don't think Genshin has much of anything or relevance, especially because what little might exist is removed from the game soon after.

The character quests are REALLY bad for example. Like offensively bad. That Mualani quest could've and should've shown why she cares so much about Kachina, to the point she risks her life for her in the main story. But instead it was the typical Genshin NPC garbage with minor lore for Mualani's place. But WHO THE FUCK CARES.
As a result the chars have absolutely nothing. They may be cute, and nice and whatnot, but are bland as fuck.

Compare that to Yunli's character quest in Star Rail, and you actually get to see a lot about her past, and explanations of why she acts like she does. And this is fairly usual in SR. It isn't perfect of course, way too many chars releasing for that. But at least it tries here and there, which I can't say about Genshin.

Okay, I see what you all mean with the 1.2 story. The final cinematic for the Tour de Inferno story genuinely made me feel emotional and I especially loved the ending scene between the siblings. So we finally know their end goal. I love the idea of a disgraced character known in history but was actually the hero, if that's what I think (and hope) they're going for. Now all I'm curous about is Fairy and the purpse of the other AIs that are known as "keys".

I just wish ZZZ's jukebox was like HSR's. The music in this game is absolutely amazing. You can talk any shit about this game, but not its music.
>>
>>4307631
>The final cinematic for the Tour de Inferno story genuinely made me feel emotional
Yeah, I was surprised too. It's been a while since a hoyo game got me so emotional

At least Genshin builds a relationship with the Traveler (Lumine) and the characters. Till this day I question why I should care about 90% of the Star Rail characters because there's no relationships being built with the TB (Stelle) in the story. Why should we care to see Robin again? Sunday? Aventurine? Jingliu? Luocha? Acheron? And many others. They had paper character in the stories they were in, and since their relationship with the TB is basically nonexistent there's no real point to come across them again. When we do the interactions feel forced, since there was no real relationship formed. Take Boothill in the recent Luka event. He talks to TB as if they know each other, but they barely ever interacted so it feels forced. Star Rail might be more engaging in terms of personality but in terms of relationship building it's the worst of all the Hoyo games. Hell I don't even care for Sunday or Tingyun, because the game hasn't told me I ever should care for them.
>>

How does this make any sense? How can you think a scene you skipped sucked? Why do people just say dumb shit for the sake of it?

Burnice is next, is she worth it?
>>
>>4308034
My issue with ZZZ is characters don't feel as must pull as with Genshin or Star Rail. After getting Zhu, Ellen, Rina, Jane, and Grace I don't see any need in rolling on any future banners.

It's up to younif you want her. I don't think you need her though.
>>
>>4308040
I just don't have fire element, though...
>>
>>4308043
Depends if you like her or not. There's gonna be more fire characters down the line so rolling for Burnice really comes down to how much do you not only want her, but also how much do you want a fire character now.
>>
>>4308043
Same. I'll probably get her since she pairs really well with Piper who's my main damage dealer atm. Though I'm a bit disappointed that Burnice, outside of that one scene with Pulchra, didn't really do anything in the main story.

I'm more and more sure that Miyabi will be in 1.4, so there's also that to consider. Also maybe the start of reruns, for those that still don't have Zhu (me)

Nahida's story quest was fun. Not all are great but at least they're there to add more connection with the characters. To this day I don't get why Star Rail got rid of story quests for particular characters. Characters like Robin, Black Swan, and Jase definitely needed them. Kafka's story quest was so unique in how it was done.

I don't really get the Tingyun hype. I mean why should I be hyped for a character I've never met before? Even weirder I'm supposed to be hyped for this character that has a 4* version that isn't even said character. It's such a bizarre strategy to me. Hoyo's basically saying "Here's a 5* version of a 4* character that may not even the same character, since the only version of said 4* character you've met was a fake". All I'm seeing is a character they want me to roll for that embodies the worst aspect of the Luofu story.

Sis, a lot of posts in the thread were people talking about how much they dislike the current story in genshin/star rail. Conversely, a lot of posts were talking about what they liked in the current zzz story
If you don't like zzz's story, that's fine, but that seems like a minority opinion in the thread for now
>>
>>4309054
Eh. I'd say right now it's the strongest, but that's because Genshin's presentation is just simply not good nowadays and everything not archon quest has been absolutely garbage, while SR fumbled the china place a LOT. Especially the tournament.

Meanwhile ZZZ's latest act was simply good. Nothing else to say.
>>
Personally the thread isn't doing it for me with all the ZZZ talk dominating the thread.
I'm really just here for genshin ships and there's not any conversation here that doesn't turn to a couple of people having a minor sperg moment about how terrible genhsin writing is.
Like yeah I know it has issues but I don't feel like we need to say it every time.

>>4309125
ZZZ is a new game with not much story so of course people are gonna bring up Genshin and Star Rail's story and not ZZZ. If you're gonna bullshit and pull shit out your ass based off of a small amount of posts do you though
>>
>>4309126
Strongest how? It's just cute girls being quirky. Also the way ZZZ presents its story with limited voiced dialogue and using the Redfall still images during cutscenes approach is terribly lazy. On top of all that compared to Genshin and Star Rail in open world aspect is incredibly bland. Yeah it's better with animation and design but it's a step backwards with everything else.

>still images
Do you mean the manga panels? Or the VN-style dialogue?
I personally like both way more than the 3d models standing around and talking.
>limited voiced dialogue
I wouldn’t call it limited as almost everything is voiced, but I’d love it if they added voice for the bits that were unvoiced this patch, especially for the playable characters.
Even with that I’d say Rin having full voice acting puts it above SR in my eyes.
>>
>>4309248
>Strongest how
There's such a thing called writing and presentation.

When I played the recent Archon quest of Genshin, the lack of lip sync, animations being just stock animations everywhere and so on definitely hurt the experience. The entire scenario also didn't work well, because they just escalated things way too quickly and then wasted your time on the ship for minutes. No tension, nothing. Cool idea, yeah, but the execution was just not there.

So even though the story quality was in theory not much lower than what ZZZ had, that just presented things a lot better and had a good flow as well.

>open world
Genshin's open world may as well not exist for its story. One of my biggest complaints actually. It sucks ass incorporating exploration into the story.
>>
>>4309331
This is so stupid. So Genshin's lip sync now means it has a worse story overall to the masses? If that's how you feel fine, but don't use your opinion as something that represents an overall feel for everyone.
>>
>>4309330
>>4309331
Someone's bias is on full display here. Your entire opinion can be tossed out since it sounds like you just hate Genshin and Star Rail. Let me guess you're one of the ones that say they fumbled Feixiao, but you love Caesar and see her as a lesbian?
>>
>>4309334
I'm saying that it's weaker than a game with an equally good story but much better presentation. That is 100% fair. If it'd be worse story-wise (i.e. the Fontaine archon quest quality) it'd be very different.

You gotta rank shit somehow and I fail to see how this isn't fair. Also, again, it's just about the current patches.


>>4309340
Anon please. If you don't want arguments, that's fine, but your post is nothing more but "lalala I don't hear you, you are just a hater".
>>
>>4309340
I don’t play Genshin because I can’t stand open worlds.
So comparing SR and ZZZ, I much prefer the latter’s manga and VN segments over the former’s 3d models standing around (and also Stelle having almost no voice acting sucks). Both have great 3d cutscenes, but those happen maybe 3-4 times per story update.
>Caesar/Feixiao
I hate what they did with both, which is why I skipped both. As for the actual story I enjoyed both the second Luofu arc and 1.2’s story equally.

Honestly part of me wants to agree with that sentiment, but then like, the lipsync in FFXIV is similarly bad if not worse, and it never really bothers me there. Maybe it's an indication of being less engaged overall that I take issue with such an ultimately irrelevant detail.

>>4309331
>It sucks ass incorporating exploration into the story.
This is true, though conversely I find exploration to be the best part of Genshin on the whole. The story is mid as fuck, but the actual world is a beauty to explore, and the technical accomplishment of an ever-growing world being rendered largely continuously is also impressive. Would definitely be to the game's benefit if they could integrate exploration into the story better.

What's everyone's take on Star Rail's POV switching? I don't think it's bad but it definitely hurts the pacing of the story, especially when it switches to characters that aren't doing anything. I also feel like with so many perspectives you never really get a clear understanding of every character compared to viewing everything from 1 perspective. For example characters like Sparkle, Ratio, Boothill, Robin, Topaz, and the Express Crew just feel like they're there in Penacony because we never spend enough with them. Compare that to Belobog where we get to spend time with each characters while playing as Stelle. I don't think the POV switches are bad but rather I don't think Star Rail's use of them is really good.
>>
>>4312335
I don't dislike them, but I think the way they're being used often means Stelle is completely disconnected from the story. It's not that I think the trailblazer should be involved in every story, but when she's basically a background character in half the storylines it just feels weird
I would have enjoyed it more is if they limited the pov switching. Right now we bounce back and forth from pov to pov and it's just annoying. Pick and a pov and stick with it until that part of the story is done
Another thing I'd like is if instead of switching to a character and they going on a sidequests alone, switch the pov and then we get to interact with the trailblazer and see what that characters thinks of Stelle. I think the closest we got to this was with Firefly in 2.3
I'd also like if they kept the rest of the astral express more involved, I think it'd be fun if we could switch to March or Himeko while they go on adventures with other characters
>>
>>4312361
Agreed. It's made even weirder when, since the MC, the story has to wrap around back to her. The ending of Penacony was so weird because Sunday talked like him and Stelle had a lot of issues when they never even had a conversation before the final fight. The same with Acheron and Sparkle. Why does Sparkle mess with Stelle when they never met? Why does Acheron act like her and Stelle had some connection when they barely interacted in Penacony. Her farewell scene felt extremely forced because they didn't have the connection the scene acted like they did. So yeah I agree it does lessen Stelle's importance to the story, which wouldn't be terrible if the story didn't keep having her be the one fighting the final battle.

I love the idea, but so far the execution has been dogshit. It's mostly used on shit characters (Aventurine, Jiaoqiu, Boothill, and Lingsha's scenes were fucking useless too). And it's often only used for the sake of making as many cliffhangers as possible.

You can pick it back up as a story game if you want since there are trial characters for story/events.

I always find grouping each Hoyo game into separate fanbases weird. Maybe it's just me but I've always assumed at least 90% of people who play 1 Hoyo game plays at least 1 or 2 more. It's hard for me to just say ZZZ fans when I'm sure a large majority of those people play other Hoyo games too.

The fact that she doesn't have a line when put on the same team as Stelle makes no sense to me. Same with Hook, Serval, SW, Clara, and HuoHuo not having a line for Stelle. Why does people like Moze, Lingsha, and Feixiao have lines for her and not people that have a much deeper relationship with Stelle?
>>

Yeah it's stupid. Apparently the new TY will have a line for Stelle too despite them having never met each other.

OK i finally finished the Hoolay story and many was it boring. I get why people said Hoyo ruined Feixiao, because all her yapping about Fox guy became annoying. Why does Hoyo keep making us come back to the Luofu? It's such a boring place. Besides Gui, Yu Xuan, Yukong, and HuoHuo I dislike all the Luofu characters. Also HSR needs less talking and more fights in these stories. When's Kafka coming back to save us from these boring patches

Can someone explain to me the hype behind Fugue and Sunday ?
Tingyun was barely a character even as Phantalia, and Sunday, even if you don't think he's an awfully written antagonist, barely has anything behind him. I honestly don't get it.

>>
>>4317098
In Sunday case it's because he should be released ages ago but Hoyo keept holding on releasing him to create more "desire" from fans, "husband" fags only get 1 new male character every 3 or 4 girls, it's very easy for them to be popular with that part of the fanbase, you can see the same shit with Screwl, Tingyun is a case of a meme making the character more popular and thus becoming more than what she was, I heard she ranked high in CN popularity pools.
>>
Maybe because I'm ignoring the men in the game, but it's crazy the amount of Anomaly characters we're getting. Miyabi's apparently an Ice Anomaly, but that's currently unconfirmed atm. I
would not be surprised if there's an Ether Anomaly in 1.5

I sure hope they don’t relegate her to a shitty subdps/off-fielder to make her work with Yanagi. I couldn’t care less if they kept her as an attacker/main dps anomaly and my Ellen got powercrept because of it.

I feel like this ship has potential but is largely ignored, probably owing to the fact Chevreuse has only been prominent in a limited event. I would love for there to be some kind of fashion event where they would interact.

Why is there so little content featuring Lumine? She's small enough to womanhandle, but not small enough to be a loli character. She's at that sweet spot. There should be a crapton of fanart and fics featuring her, but nope.

I think you get about 10,000~ polychromes + 10 limited rolls per version update. So maybe about 70~ rolls? I have monthly and sometimes clear Shiyu so I can't say for sure.
>>
>>4317972
i meant more from a team building perspective
genshin feels like it has more flexibility due to the element reactions and busted year 1 4-stars
>>
>>4317978
Oh okay, I actually have some experience with this. I don't have any limited S-ranks, the only one I have is a Support I never used. I don't use the guys, never did with the previous games and I'm keeping it that way so at the moment my 2 teams are very limited. You might have it easier with the guys.

My team is pretty much locked to Corin/Anby/Nicole or Piper/Anby/Nicole or Piper/Corin/Lucy (or Piper/Lucy in Shiyu if I need to make 2 teams). That's only if you lucked out on getting Piper. Unless you fiddle with the teams, the team bonus buff is usually 2/3. Corin is your free A-rank and she's awful because she's pretty much a single-target DPS that shines when the enemy is dazed, Piper spins to win so she's great. Outside of that, unless you pull for the limited S-ranks or they add more A-rank characters (we only had 1 in almost 4 months) you're pretty much stuck with those 5 characters. I can sometimes clear all Shiyu nodes depending on the buffs they give with built characters. The one I couldn't recently was with Caesar's launch with Shield characters. Getting the signature weapons for each of the character's not too difficult, there's so little in the gacha pool I just pulled on the weapon banners.

Long story short, it's very limited right now.

the only definitively loli in the cast is Koleda, the rest are either teen-young adult, unknown like Piper or are exceptions like Quinyi

She's a filler character between 'hype' releases that's weaker than stuff released before, notably her optimal comp is shared with Firefly who is much stronger. Her personality and inspirations are outwardly kind of ridiculous (chunni rapping popstar ninja graffiti artist) and her design is similarly Chaotic which turned a lot of people off from her. She at least got a neat little story chapter that helps endear the player to her a good deal.
From what I understand of Genshin it's the first part that mostly applies to Emile.
>>
>>4317942
Chiori became very popular with the het/porn artists and most yuri artists think she's too good for Chevy.
>>
>>4319129
So weird HSR can't seem to write a good story since 1.0 Belobog. Penacony was a step in the right direction, but there's still a lot work to do.
>>
>>4319622
Writers keep trying to be complex.
>>
>>4319612
She looks a like design experiment for the devs to see how many artistic elements they can get away with. Then again you know she's DOA when not even footfags make art of her (exposed toes).
>>
>>4319577
Idk anything about Emilie because I couldn't bring myself to play her story quest. But Rappa's backstory was surprisingly kinda good. I liked it and her personality more than Feixiao's. Her design is a bit messy, but not the worst one in HSR.
>>
>>4319577
From what I've heard, she seems more comparable to Dehya? Where people like her character just fine, but think her kit is underwhelming.

Can't believe we're getting Miyabi information soon. I just need to know what's up with that floating eye that follows her around.
>>
>>4319622
There are good ideas, but the execution, especially the dialogue, is kind of ass. Even the stuff that should be should be short and simple gets written in the most needlessly cryptic way possible. And it becomes twice as bad whenever it involves the xianzhou
