>>745633860>RTX: On
>>745633860She's perfect!!
>>745636792Genshin 2 looks promising
>>745633860Ayaka did not age well
>>745634025She's just a fujo then, like 99% of women into anime are fujos.
I rather ayaka ayaka's ayaka's.
>>745633860I don't mind the contrast, bros. Genshin's progression is a lot like an old Minecraft map you still play on. All your old stuff is right where you left it but to see new generation and get new blocks you have to go far from spawn where you didn't load chunks yet. And remember bros, Genshin development started in 2017 using overflow funds from Hi3's best banners and they were "leading their shot" when developing the game. They were building the game for technology in phones that didn't exist when they started but hoped would exist by the time they launch. Phones since their launch target have gotten crazier and crazier to allow this level of fidelity.
>>745633860For me, it's Mona
>>745633860Soul vs soulless
Apparently Genshin was initially made with 2017 phone specs in mind
Remember when they let you see ayaka's panties? I don't think it made it into the final game.
>>745633860>every character needs to look the same
>>745634006yes
>>745636792Thoma stop posting.

>doctor moreauoh I see where this is going
>>745643890You can see Barbara's panties if you get the angle right
>>745649571
>>745634025Shin please let it go
>>745643890You don't buy games with panties anyway

I quit this game forever when C0 Skirk powercrept my C6R1 Ayaka
I gave Skirk the popsicle sword skin. I feel it suits her.
Holy fucking shit gachafaggots need to be purged from this fucking boardHow this thread is still up besides the blantant samefagging schizo talking to himself is beyond me
>>745654561wrong thread bwo
>>745633860They both look like generic anime slop, you faggots see the second bitch has a smaller head and suddenly its amazing?Get some taste, holy fuck
>>745654561
>>745654779>Pointing out you're blantant samefagging and necrobumping a thread that's been dead for over 9 hours makes me a schizokill yourself
is there a comprehensive list of differences in character models or something?like Skirk being a bit taller than her general weight class or Varesa's thick thighs?
>>745633860>Beautiful....
>>745654936No, and I think that would be too much effort instead of going case by case. Despite using only like 3 model per sex they all have minor differences each. Like Varka for example has a tall male model but jacked af and he's the tallest iirc. Sandrone has a wind up key, Varesa has the same breast size as Lauma despite being medium femate, columbina has a entirely new set of animations ect
>>745655065>Varesa has the same breast size as Laumano way
>>745633860This is basically still happening in their latest game lol
>>745640497>Phones since their launch target have gotten crazier and crazier to allow this level of fidelity.That's not really the reason why the characters in Genshin looked the way they did. It's the exact same thing as FF7 (and FF8 not even a year afterwards).Genshin's earlier designs look the way they do because they picked that more cartoony artstyle intentionally. Star Rail went with a more overdesigned aesthetic and only when that hit home with the playerbase did they accept and start making Genshin characters in the same way.>Muh more detailed hair is thanks to hardware progress!It's literally just a JPEG and they're the exact same resolution in 1.0 characters as 7.0 ones. The graphics card doesn't give a single fuck what color the pixels happen to be and how many individual flocks they draw on.The playerbase is just overwhelmingly kids who don't really understand the technical side of things so they easily take up a made-up explanation and run with it. Which is okay, I didn't know how games are made at 13 either, but that doesn't make it correct.The only real and fair complaint is the occasional dud like Diluc's eyes.
>>745654909>a thread that's been dead for over 9 hoursis time different in the third world?
>>745655157I think the they still hold up in ZZZ, not just because the game is much younger at this point. Characters from the very start have been very unique and with high fidelity. Texture quality will change, sure, but the model complexity hasn't exactly gotten out of hand yet (character design is a different matter).Genshin characters have way more of a "mold" problem that only becomes more evident as time passes, as seen by all the small changes they've been implementing.
>>745655279>60 posts in the span of over 9 hours isn't dead>Retarded SEA monkey can't tell time despiteWhy do I even bother
>>745655121I didn't believe it either but a guy here posted both their models overlayed and the sized matched. You can't tell because of Varesa's sweater
>>745655541TOTAL COW VICTORY
>>745651280>druzhnaThey dropped the i to prevent the Anglos from rhyming it with vagina, didn't they? In JP it's a normal ドルジーナ (d[o]ruzhiina) so it's not like they explicitly wanted to reference something else with the mangled name.
>>745655882I feel like that's a vain effort because people will ALWAYS find a way to make fun of anything
>>745655824
>>745634025Real women love BL/yaoi, fake women love yuri
>let's make columbina again, but worsewhat the fuck is the point of vodyanitsa?
who has the highest quality character models in gacha right now anyway?GFL2?
>>745656184fish pussy
>>745656209>This is supposed to replace Signora.
>>745656014Well, it is what it is.To be totally fair, they also do it in reverse too. Like how Jahoda became Yafoda in JP, most likely to avoid everyone basically calling her アホだ (idiot).
>>745656209delet this
>>745656187yeah
>>745656249>to avoid everyone basically calling her アホだ (idiot).yeah that turned out well didn't it lolnow everyone is calling her an idiot because, well, she's an idiot
>>745656246Well, Odette chose that herself, so it is what it is.
>>745656187Either that or endfield
>>745656246>bringing people back from the dead is a very prevalent theme in snezhnayado it you fucking cowards
>>745656339>she's an idiotTake it back, she's Boss Nef's smartest helper.
>>745656187ZZZ and it's not even a contest.They don't have the highest polycount, but those things are modeled with a million bones and superb amount of animations, which is what you have to pay extra for.Putting more details or higher res textures on a lifeless doll is something any Indonesian outsourcer can shit out even in 16k for 2 bucks a pop. Making a model with enough articulation it easily puts Disney to shame is the real sign of high quality for 3D modeling and that's unquestionably ZZZ.
>>745654561what?
>>745656423>Nef's helperAN IDIOT
This red forest area in snezhnaya feels really eerie. The worldquests in this update are all great it's insane
>>745656421Supposedly if you go near her tomb with Columbina the music changes and once you get near it in general it suddenly spawns a bunch of Pyro Crystalflies.Trust in the plan, Signora will appear in Avengers: Doomsday.
>>745656209i love ryona
>>745656462>but those things are modeled with a million bones and superb amount of animations, which is what you have to pay extra for.I don't like how jiggly and claymation like ZZZ isThe fact that the shading makes everything look like it's made of plasticine is not helping either
>>745656423>Boss Nef's smartest helperyou called?
>>745656339She is, but at least it's not the characters, her friends, calling her that to her face every time they meet her.
>>745656187GFL2, Enfiled, and Wuwa
>>745654561but enough about world of wokecraft
>>745656462ZZZ definitely mogs in terms of presentation. Designs and animations are top notch, which really helps to make every character look unique. NTE tries to do it as well and good lord, they're trying hard but without ZZZ's exaggerated animation style it's hard to achieve.
>>745656476>>745656584
>>745656570>I don't like how jiggly and claymation like ZZZ isIt's okay, anon. Having no appreciation for art, sense of craft or taste is not a crime.
>>745656249then why do they call this guy Farka?
>>745634025The problem isn't that she's not a woman (she is) the problem is that she's a colonized Asian telling you about "Gay people" like she cares. Also why does she speak in Japanese Genshin's a chink game.
>>745656527I'm a bit bummed it's just one large shootout area and plays that one song on loop but it was a very nice trip.
>>745656675>this book says it good so it must be goodwhat's it like having no thoughts of your own?
>>745656675I like animation. There's just something viscerally off-putting about ZZZ, how it is lit, how characters move, it feels very weird. Did not like it.Quit in 1.4 btw
>>745656531Going there with Columbina adds her vocals from the Winter Lazzo trailer, confirmed. And I think the pyreflies pop if you get the achievement for guiding the flame moth to the entrance.
>>745656570the cartoony animation is awesome
>>745656585Nefer does it through her thoughts and actions
>>745656851The credit goes to the animators and riggers, not the character modelers
>>745633860Before / after Wuthering waves.
>>745656745The animation is why I really like it. Having everyone move like they're in a Hanna-Barbera show is lovely.
>>745656912>riggers
>>745656685because he's muh fuarking hero
>>745656960that boob jiggle is some WEG shit lmfao
>>745656960I don't like the animations. It feels too disneyslop. Otherwise, I like the models.
>>745656960Daily sex with snake women
>>745656960ENTER
>>745656987riggers with double hard r
>>745636792I've always thought this particle effect diarrhea looks awful. I know that kids love it though, with all the flashy lights and stuff.
>>745657078Best boy.
>>745657119it's very Korean MMO coded
I like when Genshin borrows a bit of goofiness from ZZZ for its cutscenes
>>745657140Yes, even though the game is chinese, it feels like it was made by koreans for koreans, with how everyone is aura farming, attacks are over the top yet have no weight to them, mc being praised every 2 minutes. The typical power fantasy manhwa.
>>745656685Japanese TL conventions for Mondo names is a bit weird, but still.It's probably a mix of the fact he is Faer-jia (so the phonetic realisation of Far-ka or Var-ka) in Mandarin and the standard understanding of German spelling where v- is actually v- as in volk (folk), vater (fater), vogel (fogel),...If anything, the real question is why is he even called Varka in the English version, given that Varka is also not really a name or word with some obvious origin language or etymology fitting that dude (of course, you need to remember he's from 1.0 Mondo before the EN localisation pushed the whole "they're German" nonsense into the fandom, courtesy of the chuuni Germanification of all terms in Honkai3rd for the EN translation).
but I think Genshin really shines with its stylized animations, last year's fun festival had an amazing onehttps://youtu.be/YrQxW5eZDeQ
>>745657229Ohhh didn't think of that. Thought they just can't pronounce V right so they just changed it.
>>745657119>I'm such a tribalist and contrarian that anytime a see a game that has actual good animations and have to larp as an oldman with epilepsyBut this visual vomit is fine, right? Lmao
>>745657229would make sense if it was supposed to be Falka but *shrug*
>>745656738>what's it like having no thoughts of your own?Anon, it's fair to have your own opinions on things, but denying the principles of good animation is basically like saying pants ought to be worn on the head or that buildings should be built roof-first.It's all hard-earned knowledge of generations of animators inventing the whole field of animation and basically everyone who's tried to make any animation knows that you're going to end up with the exact same shit to make your stuff presentable and likeable even if you try to reinvent the wheel on your own.
>>745657256https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4YPOr0fGYoI like this one
>>745657384>Searching for posts with the image hash ‘r2555k49t7meVXT7+Pu9pQ==’. 22 results found.Yes, schizo, no attack is longer than 2 seconds and each of those effects mean something besides "it just looks cool".
>>745657431oh yeah I love how they pull in all those animation studios to minglehttps://youtu.be/uFKQL6xPbRU
vgh... Sino-Russia...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7mKyeB6MZo
>>745657164Most recently used for Citlali crash-outs, yeah.>https://youtu.be/xDtnzUMDYzE?t=18They also seem to be ready to do the same for Vodyanitsa if she actually becomes popular.
>>745657568WHEN'S THE FUCKING OFFICIAL ALBUMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHI finally dicked around in Zolny a bit and love the actual songs there
>>745657651nitsa already has multiple custom animation throughout the archon and side questthe cutest ones are when you and her met the first time at the theater
>>745633860Did they update the models made before Natlan to be able to switch facial expressions too? Because it only started being a thing when that region was released. It sure would be disturbing to find out Varka can make weird faces and Amber couldn't.
>>745657651am I imagining things or are they doing a lot more in-engine ones these days? like Sandrone playing the piano, that was also not pre-rendered, I think>VodyanitsaShe seems to be the dedicated darling this time around. I guess she's likable enough but she's definitely no Jahoda.
>>745657821>am I imagining things or are they doing a lot more in-engine ones these daysThey indeed do.
>>745657821sandy playing piano wasn't prerendered, I remember seeing someone with sandrone with her giga tits out mod and she was shown like that in screenshot
>>745657821Yeah, they're absolutely doing more of these.I want to say they moved some of the people from ZZZ over to Genshin to improve but they're not that sort of corpo-competitive about shit.ZZZ is also trying really hard to improve their presentation and both teams started using the old anime emote icons (you know, the sweat drop for embarassment, breaking hearts) at around the same time with the release of Snezhnaya and Los Caelifer.They've added animated discussions to ZZZ and Genshin has those now in the train sections (since the train is truly moving and they have to fit the whole sequence before it reaches the destination).ZZZ also started using a lot more camera shake on static images, which hopefully doesn't make the jump to Genshin. I don't like it, but it is definitely an easy way to add some motion to static drawings.
>>745658036god bless sandrooners
>>745657717gonna be a whilemaybe after vesna's trailers
>>745658036
>>745658051Good on ZZZ for mixing up their ingame presentation, the zoom calls got stale. Now they're running into the issue of having like a dozen different forms of presentation in the game (very Yakuza of them) but I suppose for a game that's all about presentation and animation that's more or less good thing.
>>745656960the first scene is fucking kino, but everything after felt forced, you can only do so much with facial expressions before it looks uncanny, >>745656851 did it right, though
>>745657651>>745657821>>745658051nitsa is very cute with the custom animationhttps://litter.catbox.moe/z5ifyk.mp4https://litter.catbox.moe/lxfayv.mp4
