No idea on the second one, but there should be a warning for the first. They fangirl over the guys very often too, but not as much as the girls. Won't be surprised if she's one of those folks that are like "Asaba is a butch lesbian" bs that I'm seeing flying around
>>
>>4322506
I used to watch Mina before getting bored because her 15 year old personality and her endless clitriding for such a mid girl like Robin
>>
>>4322577
>mid
Why are you complaining when you’re clearly in her age group
>>
>>4322506
Mina was once fun but she became really annoying after awhile. She comes across as a shill, who only plays HSR because she's friends with some of the VAs. Also her Robin love is so over the top that it gets annoying real fast
>>
>>4322410
Once the mainstream attaches the gooner tag to your game there is no escaping it. You can only double down like Nikke and Azur Lane in that case.
>>
NGL sisters, Natlan has been quite the let down in yuri content. Where are bloodthristy warrior lesbians, Hoyo?
>>
>>4322634
>bloodthristy warrior lesbians
Hoyo would never write anything so based
>>
>>4322604
You should probably rethink your age groups
>>
>>4322618
I remember seeing Japanese players arguing with Wuwa players about which game is the more gooner game. Maybe becoming a gooner game will help ZZZ. From what I saw Global makes up a majority of this games fans.
>>
>>4322634
Natlan has been a letdown as a whole. Genshin and Star Rail's writing has really declined to me. Star Rail hasn't been really good since act 1 of Penacony. Genshin hasn't been really good since act 1 of Fontaine. Citlali, Kachina, and Mualani are the sole reasons to play Natlan for me.
>>
>>4322666
Considering zzz's real mc is Belle I think I'm fine with that.

I know that some of /u/ do not like the truth, but fact is.. bump limit heavily reduces activity because it kills visibility of the thread. Making a new thread when it hits page 10 is fine on active boards, but here it really isn't working.

If you get your hopes up then you risk being disappointed, if you don't care you can be pleasantly surprised

They're teasing them so why not? I don't think they even care about the guys around them.
>>
>>4323032
Pulchra doesn't seem to belong to a faction, and Burnice did offer for her to join the Sons of Calydon. I don't think she'll actually join them, but if the story ever revisits the SoC, then I'll be surprised if Pulchra and Burnice don't at least share screentime.

How long before ZZZ starts doing HI3 revenue numbers? Is this Hoyo's biggest flop, or did people not like Burnice as much as everyone thought? I know a lot of people said they were saving for for Yanagi, but honestly I don't see her doing all that well either.

disagree, I actually loved the entire sons of calydon storyline and all the girls in it. especially caesar/lucy and their dynamic. even lighter is a pretty enjoyable character because he just stands in the corner doing his own thing whereas in genshin they shove every male character in your face desperately trying to make the player find them cool. i think the wild west setting was a great change of pace too, but i'm still excited to see the section 6 gang even though i'd prefer they keep going with unique environments instead of going back to cops and offices. natlan has been a disaster to me however and i dont play honkai
>>
>>4323067
I personally enjoyed Natlan so far. Yeah from a pure yuri standpoint, there's little to nothing in it.

Yanagi X Soukaku or Yanagi X Miyabi?
>>
>>4323089
I think viewing it as a flop is the wrong takeaway here - ultimately gacha games are extremely oversaturated and I'm sure plenty of players are invested in genshin/HSR and just plain don't have the time and/or money for a third.

>>
>>4323089
I think it's that there's not much else to do in the game. There's no big overarching story or other modes, once you do your dailies there's just little to keep people immersed or into it long term, unlike something like Genshin where people can make theories about the lore in the downtime.

Inazuma (btw was the writer change rumor ever confirmed?) proved that Hoyo can't write war. Natlan feels like Pokemon instead of *insert favorite wargame here*.

I refuse to believe we're only getting Asaba and a rerun (Ellen). Then again, we still only have 1 new A-rank character...this game is in a weird state.

>>4323320
I don't know, wouldn't it be strange to tease a new character right in the middle of when they're releasing all the info for 1.3? Feels like they're not following the supposed release 'schedule' people assumed they have.

Anyways that enough dooming from me. There's still Yanagi. I hope her damage numbers are decent

Someone just posted Miyabi's icon 1.3 but just the same pic from her old art...

>when they’re releasing all the info for 1.3
Doesn’t Genshin do that? From what I’ve heard they get character introductions in the days before a new patch.
>Yanagi
She’s good overall but she gets a massive boost from Burnice.
>A rank
Yeah it sucks how we already have less A ranks than S this early on into the game.
>>
Miyabi is in 1.4 from the looks of it
>>
>>4323492
Yep, as ice anomaly
I’m hoping she has no synergy with Yanagi honestly. I’d be quite sad if she ended up being a subdps or a support-ish anomaly.
Personally I want a very field-time consuming playstyle so I can grab my 30s buff from Soukaku and have fun.

>>
>>4323494
>I want a very field-time consuming playstyle
Same. I dislike how Ellen plays so I really need a different Ice main dps. There's also nothing more annoying than being shown a strong character in the story and they end up being sub-dps/support.
>>
>>4323373
Every major patch released before had a strong yuri pairing for the fanbase to rally around
1.x had Beidou and Ningguang
2.x had Ei and Miko
3.x had Dehya and Dunyarzad, as well as Jeht
4.x had Clorinde and Navia
Natlan looks barren in terms of yuri so far. Also, if the rumors which say that the Tsaritsa is a Bronya clone turn out to be false I will be very upset.
>>
>>4323521
I know your ulterior motives and I can assure you she wouldn’t replace Nicole in that team
>>
>>4323605
ulterior motives?
I just don't want Ellen to be made redundant already.
And with mono ether anomaly it's the Qingyi getting the bench, not Nicole
>>
>>4323606
ZY needs to play bursty so QY is not going anywhere

>>4323608
Speaking of Zhu Yuan, I wonder if there will be some quotes when switching team with Miyabi eventhough they're in different squad.

>>4323620
Do the Calydon girls have any when switching with Billy?
They'd probably be treated the same way.

>>4323606
I'm looking forward to using Miyabi in my Ellen team. Getting all that freeze uptime will be great for her.

You do not play Zhu without her cop buddy. You need those stuns, otherwise she does nothing.
This is the one issue Zhu has, because her extra passive isn't gained by having a stunner, but a SUPPORT in her team. Which means unless you have her cop buddy, you can't choose something not support as a number 3. The two cops + Caesar work, but not Anby Zhu Caesar.

Wait maybe I was too dumb to notice, do they mean that they changed Yanagi's VA from whoever it was in version 1.0 and the new one is Kaori Nazuka, or did they change Kaori Nazuka for some other VA and they haven't updated their official website yet?

>>4324294
I think the former is what happened. Other than here, I don't see it mentioned anywhere else and if VAs did change post 1.3, I'd think people would be making a bigger fuss.

For the Genshin/HSR vets out there, what do you do with excess 4* banner weapons after you max refine them? Just ignore it and let it pile up in your inventory?

I know Genshin and ZZZ's yapping can be a bit much, but am I the only one that feels that HSR is the worst offender of yapping too much? It feels like ever since Penacony the game has been 80% talking, 15% teleporting between locations, and 5% actually allowing players to fight and play the game.

They also need to work on how to write relationships between characters. Outside of March, Kafka, Dan Heng, FF, SW, Asta, Luka, and the ghostbusters team Stelle's relationship with other characters is so forced. There's so many times while playing I'm questioning why the game acts like Stelle and some of these characters are friends. For example Robin in the latest event says she trusts Stelle, and I don't know why when she hasn't said more than 3 words to her up until that point. Same problem happens with Boothill and Aventurine. It's also why Acheron's goodbye falls so flat. They never built a relationship to the point where an emotional goodbye was warranted. Stelle was in the presence of fake Tingyun longer than she was with Acheron. Compare that to how ZZZ makes a point in having Belle get to know the new character in each new story. Or Lumine becoming friends with every new character to the point where Lumine being with one of them doesn't feel weird or forced.

I was there when people shipped GanQing when there was like 0 interactions of them. 0 interactions in game and 0 shared materials anywhere. The connection is 1 of them is a Morax follower and the other hates him. It's very different from cp like JeanLisa/BeiGuang/EiMiko where you can tell the game tries to pair them together.
Then after that it' like the floodgate suddenly openned for that couple. How it gets to be probably the 2nd most popular GL cp in Genshin I never know.
the point is maybe just ship anyway then the dev will throw you some crumbs.

>I'd much rather have the women free-range and talk to other women and let the fandom decide who gets shipped with who
Tbf, there are pros and cons of each approach. I like this if it's a small and very close cast like Love Live. However, normally when you have a character with "weak" ship in a gacha, what you get is not your free range shipping, instead the most dominant cp tend to always be with the self insert which might or might not be your thing. Take Ganqing for example, before it was a thing it's all Ganyu x Traveller and Keqing x Traveller.
Also a locked pair does attract a lot more content for creators, and thus more fans and it creates a positive loop.
I agree Genshin locked pairs are boring though, except Ganqing (which is kinda accidental) you can very much tell what are the devs preference cp type. I don't need them to tell me they like their cold stoic momma x playful flirt for the nth time.

That's good, I still have time to level up myself and to collect poly or something for Miyabi.

I can't wait to run Soukaku and her two moms as a team
>>
>>4329714
Fair enough, different strokes for different folks. You do hit the nail in the head that most Genshin locked are just boring. IMHO Beiguang for example works better as amicable exes because Qingguang has that something special in my eyes, you know? Also Hoyo deserves roasting for making Sara's writing raw ass and not even trying to do Eimikosara.
>>
>>4329863
Weird thing to call them Moms.
>>
>>4329893

>>
>>4329532

>>
>>4328338
really? wish i played the game back then i started would have loved to see the meltdowns
>>
>>4330017
Nah, you've got it confused. I mean women having multiple interactions into their canon writing and then fanbase makes its move.
>>
>>4330030
Warning: that was mostly a personal observation from seeing fanworks. Everybody waits for the huge, super popular artists to take the plunge, like how Yantao and Shenlan were big for sometime despite being literal crackships.
>>
>>4330030
Also, that Eimiko-Yaeyato war badly damaged the yuri community's image and standing on twitter because the schizos were posting and other sorts of fucked up shit and that was before Elon's aquisition brought all the hetfag bluechecks to bully and harass the Hoyo yuri fanbase.
>>
>>4330433
Pretty sure it went both ways. Some big yuri acc got doxxed all over a dumbass crackship. Genshin fans are a different breed of people.
>>
>>4330433
People would hate yuri regardless of ship wars. Male star rail fans seethe hard at Acheswan and accuse its shippers of being annoying and delusional (and the ship of being abusive and toxic). They also complain about hsr yuri fans in general and "wahh they make all characters gay", though they rarely talk about fujos. They try to come up with an excuse to make all yuri ships seem problematic and then cancel it. Bi/het women also love to shit on yuri and himejoshis for no fucking reason
>>
>>4330461
The issuebwith Star Rail is that unlike Genshin, HI3, or ZZZ the ships are kinda forgettable imo. Besides Stelle with March, Kafka, or FF they are all throwaway ships. Sushang and Gui are pretty consistent, but aren't that popular for some reason. Outside of them other ships get crumbs. I blame the game for not going all in on the ships that allow het fans to bash yuri fans. Look how none of the het fans ever talked shit about Stelle x FF. They know that ship holds weight to it.
>>
>>4330561
>the ships are kinda forgettable
That's more of an issue with how HSR is written. The CHARACTERS are forgettable, so of course the ships are too.
>>
>>4327444
That's not flanderization works. The fandom can't flanderize a character. All they're doing is creating fanart. You're looking way too much into a nonexistent issue
>>
>>4329532
That feels so lame. This mindset almost feels like the het shipper mindset. "It's doesn't matter how the characters act I'm gonna ship them with who I want" is all I'm getting, which to me makes the characters feel lifeless. Like they're OCs for you to write however you want. It also feels like there's be no point in getting happy to see yuri in the game.
>>
>>4330605
>"It's doesn't matter how the characters act I'm gonna ship them with who I want"
That's like a good 80% of all the hoyo ship, no matter the type. (See Shenlan, KafHime, Arlefuri, etc.)
>>
>>4330568
Isn't that Hoyo as a whole? ZZZ has some of the most one note boring characters ever. It doesn't help that many of their characters feel like they were taken from their other games. Jane Doe is just Yelan. Yanagi seems like another boring busty Raiden character. Anby feels like Lynette. Nicole is as greedy as Dori. Belle is bubbly and sassy like March. Wise is the straightman like Dang Heng. Hoyo has so many games that the characters start becoming archetypes more than actual characters are awhile.

I dunno about all that, but I agree it's kind of lame arle ships are so overwhelmingly dominated by domineering predator/prey furina stuff.
>>
>>4330738
The sad thing is Furina x Navia/Clorinde/or even Hu Tao is so much better. Let's not forget how it was Lumine who Furina was willing to open up to in Fontaine. Also she seems to really like/care for Lumine.

Speaking of Lumine and Furina I've never actually noticed but is Lumine actually taller than her?

Really liked how romantic it looked, even though it's just her falling asleep. Wish they were a thing.

>>4330461
Acheswan hate is hilarious considering that used the trailer as bait and straight-up didn't bother to commit to that ship.
>>
>>4330607
Shelan shippers should give it up because they had two years and LRs to make them into a thing if they wanted to. And Yelan hasn't been seen since 3.4 which is crazy considering how insanely popular she is.
>>
>>4330821
What exactly did you expect them to follow up with? They get married at the end of Penacony?

It was a tease, and Acheron had a party join line for Swan, that was about it and that was about all we were going to get.

The fact that they chose a dance for what Black Swan was trying to do is already a win.

>>
>>4330837
>modern style
I'm confused in what you're trying to say here.
>>
>>4330841
They first have to give her an actual personality. Seriously outside of Firefly was there any Penacony character that developed as a character by the ending? Even getting Harmony Stelle was lame compared to getting Preservation Stelle.
>>
>>4330850
What? you haven't heard the news that we are getting robots this year?
>>
>>4330850
Probably the character designs
>>
>>4330853
Acheron was too OP to get development. She mostly went to Penacony to grant the wish of a dead person, there wasn't any conflict about her beliefs. We know that despite all the shit she went through, she is mostly fine mentally. Instead of being a depressed emo, she is optimistic. The best example is her line that even if you can't change the ending, it will have a different meaning depending on the journey, that's pretty neat.
My biggest disappointment is not exploring her memory loss and how it affects her. The idea of using emotions to remember things is so good, but it was never really used
>>
>>4330871
That doesn't make much sense. They make it sound like characters like Xilonen, Rappa, and SW don't dress like modern times.

>>4330914
Being too op to have character development is honestly one of the most baffling things I've ever heard. The fact that you can remove her from Penacony and very little would change says it all. She was just there for the Raiden Mei reveal and that's about it, and even that fell flat since they never gave us a reason to care about her. Hell even in your own post you summed her up as an optimist and that's about it. She's so boring that even Feixiao stands out more than her.
>>
>>4330968
Sheesh, I understand that you like all hoyogames, anon. I'm just fine with zzz. 1 game is enough for me to play around.
>>
>>4330738
>it's not romantic, it's not interesting, it's toxic and malebrained and exploitative
Toxic ships are hot though, Arlefuri is just shit considering Arlecchino even now is still mourning her dead gf. Crack shis is just really not my things.
>>4330823
>Shelan shippers should give it up because they had two years and LRs to make them into a thing if they wanted to
I think what happens is probably Hoyo figures they have their yuri bait quota for Liyue already with Beiguang and Ganqing and move on. If Ganqing wasn't really a thing then maybe they can have a chance, but Ganqing being as big as it is no way Shenlan has any chance.
>>
>>4331192
Shenlan never had a chance because the characters never met. It's the Firefly x Robin ship situation. Just like with Shenhe x Lumine Hoyo doubled down on Firefly liking Stelle with every appearance.
>>
>>4330738
Y'know you can dislike a ship without making up people who like it to be mad at, right?
>>
>>4330968
It's more like Acheron's appearance kills any tension and suspence because of OPness. She's walking ''fuck you, I win'' button. Also Feixiao was literally made for the powerlevelfags who didn't want to interact with the yuri fans. Unless she also gets a smoking hot gf if they ever expand on her more.
>>
>>4331192
Ganqing is the black horse of the popular Genshin lesbo ships because it's the only where it seems the writers had no plan in putting them together. Hoyo gave them stuff afterwards because of how quickly it became popular.

Frankly, the fact that ZZZ has unique character models and doesn't recycle everything already puts its designs like 10 notches above Genshin and HSR.

>>4331889
He's an absolute joke of an antagonist with kindergarten grade philosophy, who also is the main focus of what is probably the worst patch in Penacony
I don't hate him or anything, but he's like the symbol of everything that was wrong about Penacony, because it started as an interesting arc and every patch after the first one seemed to entierly forget what happened in the previous one to try and establish some new plot point, again, and again, and again.

>>
>>4331988
They are H3 expy, they are there just to make the honkai name make sense, hoyo has no desire to flash out them because they already did enough on H3, you could have used Dan fag though, he's obvious much less involved in events compared to Stelle and March.
>>
>>4331988
I'm with you

Remember that Nu-Hoyo is about profit first and foremost. Sunday will get his shill screentime but as an "adult" member of the crew, he'll get sidelined when it's time to shill the new characters.

She was donezo the minute she was introduced attached to that one guy's hip. This is easily the worst nation for yuri so far.

Every NPC couple in genshin and hsr are het. Don't expect canon yuri after the CCP did its bullshit.
But anyways, no one cares about NPCs, it's different when it comes about playable characters.
And don't expect canon couples on playable characters if you don't want to cry over explicit heterosexuality and waifufags don't want to do the same with them getting "cucked"

You're a bit late, Arlecchino has become nothing but boring fluff since she was release and so is the ship. I don't care if people like toxic ships, it would be a break considering how fluffy every other ships is. I like variety but if people don't even want female antagonists then the fandom is beyond help.

The tiny and useless thing is fun but I kinda like the powerful cop angle more.

Why did they have to do Rappa's story that way? They chopped up her screentime that made it feel like she had fewer scenes. Then, carrying on with the story so much with Boothill's POV. The first POV switch was fine, cause it was pretty short. But then you switch back again to Boothill and most of the story happens on his side to the point that the only thing Rappa had to do was beat up the villain.
Sorry for rambling, I was actually enjoying myself but they just had to ruin it by focusing too much on Boothill.

NTA and I don’t particularly care about the fanbase itself, just look at poor Rappa being paired with Boothill despite having 0 (zero) interactions that can be interpreted in that way.
I’m just hoping they don’t pull anything like what they did to Feixiao with the upcoming Amphoreus girls.
Tribbie should be safe with her being a loli under the care of Aglaea at least, but god knows about the others.

I might be alone but ZZZ's designs are pretty hit or miss to me. I love Anby, Zhu, and Rina's designs, but characters like Nicole, Grace, and Ceasar don't do it for me. Also couldn't you argue Jane Doe is ZZZ Yelan?

On another note i found Stelle's VA really cute here. She really missed Tingyun

I genuinely question why they would make him such a lame villain and forgettable character just to make him join the express crew. What has he done to deserve it? He has 0 chemistry with the crew, 0 personality, and worst of all there's so many better options than him. Yeah what the Express really needs is another boring guy on the crew. At least Dang Heng is there a the serious one to Stelle and March. What does Sunday add?
>>
>>4332274
>>4332306
Isn't this the same thread that still said Ceasar was gay when she had a whole het fantasy and official posts doubling down on that? Why is Citlali different?
>>
>>4332853
Yeah I find the designs a bit polarizing too. There's a lot of really cool practical outfits (or certainly more practical than the norm) but also an annoying number of fanservicey pornbait getups in there. Nicole has monster cleavage, booty shorts and more midriff than the entire genshin cast. Burnice is largely the same except with 0.2 inches of skirt over her ass. Just super unnecessary.
>>
>>4332624
The Star Rail POV switches tend to hurt the storytelling. For example all the switching to Boothill could've been cut in favor of spending more time with Rappa. The whole time I was more focused on why is Rappa hanging around Stelle than her actual story, because of how messing the writing was getting. For all it's flaws I like the fact ZZZ gives Belle an actual reason to be around new characters. The whole "I'm here to help because I'm nice" thing in HSR and Genshin is getting old. Rappa was only around Stelle because Stelle is the MC is lame and doesn't feel organic. Imagine if they were given time to actually flesh out their bond and got people to care about them hanging out. Instead they gave that to Boothill for no reason other than them realizing he wasn't fleshed out in Penacony's main story.
>>
>>4332857
There are some battles that are just not worth fighting, and these days it seems most Hoyo battles are not really worth fighting.

I wonder how HBR is
>>
>>4332702
Stelle was only given 2.7 because of the bath scene. If they didn't want to highlight that part they probably would've given it to Caelus. Look how she didn't play any role in the PV afterwards
>>
>>4332861
2.6 was caelus, so 2.7 makes sense to be stelle
again the real issue is since 3.0 is coming up next, now its an excuse to give ca*lus another major patch pv even though it should have been stelle for 2.0, but they clearly wanted the stupid MJ dances with adventurine and caelus isntead
>>
>>4332860
HBR is 10/10 and I strongly recommend playing it
>>
>>4332860
HBR is very good and very gay. The one caveat I'd say is it's very story focused and the gameplay can often be a bit of an afterthought.
>>
>>4332860
>I wonder how HBR is
The gameplay is REALLY dogshit,
But the story and character interaction are REALLY good, like, it's insane how much personnality and life there is in every character

>>
>>4332789
While it has its own problems Wuthering Waves have been crushing it with the yuri. No subtext at all. So many of the ladies all want Frover. A character named Changli's whole quest was her realizing Frover was her destiny. Another character named Shorekeeper outright said she loved her.
>>
>>4332866
Isn't a lot of that because they're written to be blindly into the male protagonist and they just reuse the script for the girl? Not to open a can of worms but I remember people saying in the beta the women were far more independent.
>>
>>4332866
I dropped it in 1.0 because of the story. Far too focused on the MC (both the story and the ships) for me to care about it.
>>
>>4332850
I pulled E1S1 Rappa, but that’s my point. There’ll be het fanart regardless and I couldn’t care less, because the story itself doesn’t support it.
I only care when the story pushes het ships, which certainly is a possibility with 3 major male characters in Amphoreus already.
>>
>>4332859
I disagree. The BH PoV was shit this patch but overall I prefer seeing other characters do their own thing instead of everything revolving around the MC.
I’d be more open to the idea if they went the ZZZ route of having the MC be a fully voiced, completely independent character however.
>>
>>4332862
Didn't Stelle get the Black Swan trailer? I'd say that was a bigger win
>>
>>4332871
I disagree with this. Other characters doing their own thing only works after interacting with the MC. That allows for not only Stelle but the fans to like them. For example the Aventurine didn't work for me because the game never gave me a reason to care for his character. Same with Acheron and all the other POV switches. It also doesn't work because the game doesn't know how to tie everything together at the end. For example you spend so much time away from Acheron only for her to get some emotional goodbye, which falls flat. Other characters interact with Sunday so when Stelle fights him it has 0 impact, since Stelle has had no interaction with him before the boss fight. It can be done but the writers aren't good at it.
>>
>>4332871
The POV thing can be awesome, but so far it's been mostly used terribly.
>>
>>4332858
I'd be ok with it if it at least fit their character. It's crazy how Jane Doe, the most seductive character, is one of the most covered up

For the some reason the writers forget how to do their job in post launch HSR. It's like every patch is Inazuma AQ tier bad and I highly doubt Amphoreus is gonna be third time's the charm and clutch it with a good story and character interactions like Sumeru did.
>>
>>4332908
>HSR POV switch is just there to sell characters
Which is funny because they aren't even good at that. Honestly if some of these characters weren't so useful no one would roll for them based solely on how they are written in story. Hoyo's mindset with Star Rail seems to be why have the story make you want a character when you can just make them the new meta.
>>
>>4332950
Amphoreus has one thing going for it that Penacony didn't and that's all the characters are from there. That might help with the story. The real issue is Sunday. If he's the new member they'll definitely use Amphoreus as the arc where he fully becomes part of the crew. I'm not looking forward to him interacting with any of the ladies in Amphoreus.
