ZZZ goes through an identity crisis every major patch.

I miss TV mode too @DenseDeerFather
Particularly enjoyed Hollow Zero's semi-roguelike gameplay for a while. 'twas a bit overdone in some missions though...

I can certainly concede to that.

It's a shame though. Feels as if the devs have no idea where to go so they go wherever the fuck regardless if it's fitting.

Hence we're going to Not China and turning into Underground Streetpunk super Jesus. Almost feels like it's just going back to the same old from Star Rail and Genshin. Idk about HI3. Maybe it's better there.

I will admit tho that I like Hugo for how bombastic he is. And that baller ass hat.

Vivian on the other hand makes me cringe but pulling for her regardless because Ether deficiency.
 
'm just doing dailies in Star Rail and finishing building what characters I've got, but I haven't started the story and what I've read about it so far makes it seems like some horrifying confusing mess. Pretty sure the twist will be that everyone is already dead and it's just their memories trapped in some loop due to stellaron fuckery.
Something like this totally happens in honkai impact 3 and with phainon being a kevin expy you might be close on the mark.

To be fair, the nerf ruined Neuvillette would have inspired me to threaten to pipebomb the ceo. How do you make a character who's entire kit is charge attack, and then 2 or 3 patches later drastically reduce the amount of times it hits because some players were using only him to clear abyss.

The nerf wasn't his power, it was a "bug fix" on his turning speed being unlimited which meant people were using macros to infinite spin during his beam and hit the entire abyss at the same time. Even if you don't use macro it made impossible to "flick" leftand right to hit 2 enemies. Of course, doing this after 7 patches and one version before mualani releases made it obvious it was a targeted neuvilete nerf.

Oh, I thought it was a nerf on the tick speed of his charge attack. Either way, it was a transparent nerf and should have been "fixed" right away if it was an issue.
 
Kafka and Silverwolf buff leaks are starting to come out of the woodwork:

Silverwolf's Ult is now a better Pela debuff AOE, Skill will implant the whole teams elements on the enemy and Elemental Res shred. (Not 100% sure if single or AOE on the skill.)

Dommy Mommy: Follow up attacks will detonate all dots on the enemy while applying another stack of her own dot. Speculation for other buffs to her kit are higher multipliers (100% instead of the current 75%) AOE detonation on skill and/or increasing the multiplier on Shock.
 
It'll probably be single on Silver Wolf. If they make her AoE, I will shit myself.

Mommy Mommy: Follow up attacks will detonate all dots on the enemy while applying another stack of her own dot. Speculation for other buffs to her kit are higher multipliers (100% instead of the current 75%) AOE detonation on skill and/or increasing the multiplier on Shock.
Make DoT crit, you chink fucks.

By fucking Allah...

I'm 30 pulls away from hard pity in ZZZ. Hopefully, I can get enough polys for Vivian. Sadly, I can't play ZZZ or WuWa until I get a new controller since mine decided to get drift. Tried to search for solutions, but apart from cleaning it, there isn't much to do. I guess I'll head to Best Buy tomorrow.
 
Nikke anniversary finished maintenance. No Little Mermaid yet.
I’ll be honest, I have the Pity Tickets built up to get her and the new Mihara when she drops.

Yeah I don’t know how I built up 400 Tickets without spending on anything except the Battle Pass either. I’m not questioning it.
 
Blew around 250+ pulls on Siren, got 3 copies and used golden tix on the last to max limit break her

Bunch of other random limit breaks too, got to mlb a few useful ones like Tia

I'll start saving for the Stellar Blade collab now probably I think maybe I dunno

I sincerely hope Shiftup decides for some reason to make the "Beautiful Me" - Cinderella skin free 🙏🙏🙏 ( "Beautiful You" - Grave is the half anniversary pass skin )

In The Mirror minigame has been added to the arcade, it's really good and fun
( atleast till the late - late - endgame )

SU is reasonably lenient with the pulls, but the way the gacha is structured, you'll definitely need more pulls for a certain character, especially Pilgrims / Overspec ( 1% on rate up )

I skipped a few events cuz it was mostly filler and I'm not some kind of ultra turbo gooner to care about fodder characters but I still got to accumulate a bunch of pulls to blow today
 
Yeah I just got to that part. I have... Concerns. Kinda made me go huh when the goddamn mayor was like "You are special"

The fuck?

I can certainly empathize with your concerns for the story. Rip Eus.
I quit that game months ago when it became clear they were going to gut every unique part of the story and gameplay for mass appeal, because the launch was doing poorly and the devs were insecure.

Since the new big titty angel Anby/Hersher expy Yixuan is a new type (as pointed out by @Hammr2) I get the dreadful feeling that one of the siblings is gonna become type number two or some shit. Which would be the absolute worst.

When Ellen kept yapping about how if only I was a fighter, I could do this and that, I was a bit wary.

ZZZ was the only other gacha story I was genuinely interested in. Genshin has Fontaine going for it (prison arc not withstanding) but it's shit in Natlan.

Well might as use that ZZZ skip button liberally,then take a break after this patch.
 
TV mode was removed because some faggots complained about exploration commissions, so we got less commissions overall, no side commissions except agent stories, more re-used rally commission maps, less effort put into hard mode versions of story missions (IMO Snowbreak did hard mode the best), but more effort put into weekly shit and events.
They should be thankful that enemy HP was increased only by 16% when triple ults were added. I haven't struggled against a single Deadly Assault, but I felt ripped off when I pulled Trigger and she ended up being a shitty Nicole replacement for teams that don't have SS Anby (I have never pulled a single Electric DPS and probably never will), so I didn't give a single fuck about her deep, dark story consisting of 4 hours of unvoiced dialogue boxes.
Vivian is extremely cute and makes my Miyabi clear HZ even faster. Hugo's hallucinations were a waste of time, I'm not interested in that faggy twink's emo phase (but of course they had to redeem him and blame that generic NPC face villain for his dad's death).
Despite everything, ZZZ easily has the best combat of all gachas. Tribe Nine's combat is super stiff and you always fight 3 enemies, dodges don't really dodge, parries don't really parry unless you hit the shrinking circle in time, every enemy triggers 3 chain attacks every stun, PGR feels like playing the original TWEWY's top screen for the entire time, and I will never play Genshin again, or WuWa, ever.
Devs need to stop giving people build advice because their builds plain suck, but I get the moneymaking method behind it: suggest wrong alternatives so they pay to pull the sig.
 
Apparently the Genshin 5.6 stream announcement is the most popular and has gotten the most engagement in the game's history in Chinese and Japanese socials.
Who knew you just had to jiggle Dragonspine and my fuarkin hero Albedo to instantly reinvigorate the game.

Yeah they are gonna get invigorated agaisnt the VAs when they plug into the stream and every character is mute.

Why would chinks and nips care for English VAs? Plus Mihoyo already hit the nuke button and just recast everyone (and won't hire Americans ever again inshallah).
 
As always. keep your expectation low. I wouldn't trust the patch main artwork being that "true" how entire story plays out since Fontaine. Sumeru is kinda 50/50.
At least good thing for Albedo fans since last year Summer event, Wanderer took the spotlight with mini-Durin. Idk what will they do with Summer patch this year.


Well, overall ZZZ 1.7 story is kinda bad. Not saying ZZZ story is great or anything, but at least it can be enjoyable in some moments (fun).
If you haven't noticed, pretty much all of Hugo here is kind off OCdonutsteel - edgy - author self-insert. Everything is going according to plan, all thanks to him. I hate MHY writing affecting this game, repeating the information again and again.
During Hugo hallucination, telling it wasn't his fault for massacring most of his family members. Only then, let him repeating this again to the real Lycaon. Near the end of chapter, Lycaon thanks Proxies on behalf of the mayor and mentions Proxies will be under Yi Xuan guidance. Immediately the next day, having the other sibling tells the player, there is a lady called herself Yi Xuan visiting you, also do you know her???? Like wut????

On Vivian backstory, having Dinah be the antagonist. Oh wow, another female character becomes the antagonist for the third consecutive time since Astra Yao patch because the chapter antagonist loses someone dear to her. But this time in catty way, oh no Vivian "stole" attention and care from Dinah's father from Dinah. Despite both of them know Dinah's father was a dipshit. Everything is so predictable miles away.
I hate myself how Dinah design reminds me of Penny from RWBY. Hugo's weapon is conveniently a scythe can shoot bullet like Ruby's weapon too. He has time-slow instead of Ruby's "super speed".

Also, since the whole plot Sacrifice reveal (more like since patch 1.3). Every end chapter boss is now Resident Evil tier, being injected or inject themselves with special serum and turns into monstrous monster.
 
Lmao they really are playing it so fucking safe, it's embarrassing. I guess it makes them more money that way (I say this as, self aware that I'm player and maybe adding to the problem) but it sure doesn't help their games have much uniqueness beyond a surface level so they all sort of head in the same direction with different gameplay.

Or are they just lazy? You decide.

Dumb thought, could you imagine if they did something similar for that one otome game they have?
