lmao those zzz comments are killing me

#

i dont think i played too much to give a very honest opinion yet

but so far here is my experience

The dailies and stamina exp should not be unlocked behind 4-5 hours of gameplay specially for people whol want to play the game slowly

#

the combat i still never focused on because the difficulty doesnt exist at all yet ( lvl 16)

#

the early game mobs are basically standing sponges that do nothing

#

the combat so far is

i keep mashing left auto attack and ocassionally presss space( switch character counter{and you have like a huge window to do this}) i never felt the urge to do a dodge or perfect dodge cuz the space counter swap mechanic

#

and everything feels like they play same i am pretty sure they have a bit of dypth that i couldnt or i didnt bother to look at to be more optimal but why be optimal when you dont need to think

pine thorn
final nebula
#

UI is kinda cool but confusing i dont understand it it is not for old people as some say and it is still confusing

gacaha and how much you earn is still ambigious but if they are giving so many polls i will assume we cant get much beside of events etc which is fine these games live on events anyway

#

story telling is kinda niche

#

but the story is so not interesting at all

#

i actually enjoyed the tv system the most it is where like yea sure you clear everything but it is the only place where i feel like i am alive in that game

#

maybe use 1 braincell from time to time

#

arcade is fun because it is not the game it is basically different games maybe it is fun as first try not sure if i would bother with it later on

#

characters design i didnt find a single character that attracted my attention or i even cared by 1% to bother what they do so yes i found them all to be boring bland and the same thing

#

i still cant find why on earth this game is as big as it is

#

while games like wuwa are half of it size with basically insanely more complicated system and more of realistic models instead of too cartoonis ones

pine thorn
#

i see

final nebula
#

i would give the game as what i experienced so far 3.2/10

pine thorn
#

ive been seeing hoyo fans glaze zzz but after its release havn't heard anything

final nebula
#

i didnt have a time where i was feeling adreline rush

#

or anything

#

which you expect from this type of games

#

if you recommend a game that look like zzz i can easily say pgr and aether gazer are much more fun and characters looks more interesting

#

hoyo fans rules = hoyo game is great

pine tundra
final nebula
#

everything else is bad

#

or not polished not worth it

pine thorn
final nebula
#

and people will tell me the game is just not for me

pine thorn
#

same thing i thought

final nebula
#

but who are you to tell me if a game is or is not for me

pine thorn
#

why play zzz which is 5 times pgr size when you can play pgr

final nebula
#

i basically played aether gazer for too long

#

its not that part that is important

#

pgr actually has gameplay

#

you cant just press buttons

#

or at least thats my experience in zzz

ar60f2ptigerninja

#

so yea

#

since i ever started playing gacha

#

i was never not excited to open the game again after closing it

#

but ZZZ breaks that

#

i am not excited at all to play it tomorrow

#

and it probably be 1 hour at most

pine thorn
sly ember
#

Is Aether Gazer good?

#

Like compared to PGR?

final nebula
#

depend on your taste

sly ember
#

ZZZ has flash. I'm playing it now, it's alright but definitely doesn't stand out in anything, least of all the character models

final nebula
#

still my favorite launch gacha game is tof ๐Ÿ’€

#

i spent the whole day with my friend

#

WuWa was boring at start

#

but once i ran away from the story for little

#

i had a lot of fun in exploration

#

then i went back t ostory and it got better

#

wuwa is great

#

๐Ÿ‘

#

if you ask me what hoyogame do you recommend

#

i would go with
genshin->hi3->maybe zzz but i would not really recommend

#

i didnt add hsr cuz it is differnet and i would probably say it is not a real game LeTroll

#

okay i will stop yapping

#

i will go sleep

#

But ye, i loved HI3 a lot more than ZZZ

final nebula
#

is not really a turn based game

#

even pokemon has more options

#

and i am talking about 90s pokemon

#

not modern ones

sly ember
#

Even if ZZZ looks better and more flashy, HI3 had a really nice story to go with it. Tho only time will tell how much love ZZZ gets from Hoyo

final nebula
#

my only problem was with hi3

#

i cant use mouse and keyboard the way i want

#

they wont let me play it with my own settings

#

otherwise i liked the gameplay

#

and the speed of it

sly ember
# final nebula for me a Turn based game with only 2 options

Finally. Someone that agrees

There's no dodge mechanic, you can't use items in combat. There's literally attack, skill, and ultimate only. Plus the reason why traditional turn based RPGs work so well is because the stronger characters are unlocked as the story progresses or after completing endgame objectives

HSR has the difficulty of a traditional RPG with the character progression system of a gacha. Absolutely ridiculous

final nebula
#

you dont use your turn to use them

sly ember
final nebula
#

so most of ultimates are just throw or wait for boss to use

sly ember
# final nebula you dont use your turn to use them

Legit. And there's never a concept of ultimates in the usual TB RPGs. Any attack or spell could be an ultimate based on your build, save for some instances where Limit Break or a summon is your ultimate

final nebula
#

or resource management

#

but hey you never run out of skills nayway

#

at least not before evreything is dead

#

you dont go for like i will use the most mana cost skill everytime

#

and i will get away with it

sly ember
#

Honestly I just see HSR combat as a gameplay version of the real life concept of inflation

Enemy difficulty is fine...for a traditional RPG. You just need to tune your build better

But character competency is ass, and actually getting better characters isn't tied behind a grind or effort of doing quests. It's tied behind your patience and luck with the gacha

sly ember
final nebula
#

with Dan hung destruction one

#

with like a buffer or 2

#

regardless the enemy

#

seele is like the only unit

#

that has a bit of complexity

#

and i disagree with you

#

difficulty is locked behind your gear mostly

sly ember
#

Seele was fun. I never got her but she really prioritised building towards something

Blade as well kinda

final nebula
#

if you get lucky you just win the game

#

if not

#

you just suffer

#

nah seele is just not hit the middle guy

#

and everything else die

#

she is like okay this guy is low

#

i can kill and get the buff

#

then kill another target

sly ember
#

But ye, throwing braindead heavyweights like Fu Xuan and Luocha in just invalidates a ton of stuff you'd have to consider, because of "Yes, but I heal"

final nebula
#

but then i dont want to use so much skilll

#

because she is fast

#

i mean all supports were braindead except maybe natasha

sly ember
final nebula
#

and bailu is like puke

#

gamble

#

but at least she is a bit unique

#

unlike i shield heal give crit damage

#

critrate

#

and i reduce damage taken by 99%

#

also gives attack defense elemental weakness

#

all in 1 thing

sly ember
#

I'm genuinely surprised I stayed in HSR as long as I did

It has so much to work with. The story is great, the characters are great, but if the gameplay feels like walking on coals because my luck wasn't up to par, then what the hell

final nebula
#

i wanted to give the game 6 months

#

and i did that

#

it was not even me playing the game

#

i just click auto and go to youtube

#

or do other things

#

like the time i spend looking at my screen

#

is like 5% of the time i spent on the game

#

nah 35-40% to be fair

sly ember
#

Like I don't mind Genshin or ToF etc coz of one simple thing when it comes to combat

The simple ability to dodge or reposition. The fear of losing a battle is a lot lower when you have the potential to avoid attacks based on skill

HSR having a dodge system for your party would have been way cooler. But a game where a dodge button exists, and you're rewarded with either a stasis field, counter attack, or simply not taking damage at all, is my kinda feature

final nebula
#

if hsr had 1 more button to all characters that use 2 skills instead of 1

sly ember
final nebula
#

i would consider it as maybe half ass baked game

#

because then you get decisions

#

that might matter

sly ember
#

Being corralled into 3 choices in combat, with no option to move around or use items, is boring as shit

#

I sense Destiny 2 Hunter main-ism

final nebula
#

DPS CHARACTERS -> DO SKILL ALWAYS 99% OF THE TIME IN YOUR TURN
support -> buff dps and wait for buff to be gone if buff on do attack
healer->shielder > use skill and afk auto attack ( ulti when someone is low unless it has buff for some fucking reason)
dots -> literally dps
preservation same as healer

hunt and the other class that hit 5 people are useless cuz distructions and nihility does it 10 times better

#

but they need to make modes

#

to make these classes a bit wanted

#

like himeko was useless the whole 1.0

#

and oyu would only use her on that specific mode

#

you use items

#

before the fight

#

thats your mistake

#

just use buffs before fight xdd

#

and heal before fight

#

or after it

#

doing it during the combat is too complex and challenging for players

sly ember
#

There's a reason Like A Dragon, a game that to me is polarised af because it broke Yakuza's beat em up combat style and replaced it with turn based, felt so good to come back to after HSR

Chance to hit exists. Evasion exists. Item use mid-battle, from bento boxes and energy drinks, to grenades and stink bombs, are all allowed

Each character had jobs to switch between, ranging from the tanky riot police job, to the buffer pop singer job

Character stories exist in the form of hangouts and a friendship system, with higher friendship tiers rewarding you with improved stats of that character, or whole new moves

#

HSR has none of that

final nebula
#

i mean i played RTS games that kinda have turn based gameplay not sure what this genre is called and they all had these hit channce weakness crit chance etc all kind of elements that make the game more engaging speed not speed but distance that can be moved high ground low ground range spells mana armor and even if you move by pass an enemy they would hit you just cuz you ignoring them etc even tho it is not their turn and yes enemies also have crit and other stuffs not just your characters

#

like mobs in hsr they just have debuffs

#

some of them got cool undebuffable buffs but that doesnt matter

#

there isnt a single mob that can crit or do some bullshits that will pisses you off except of svarog hand which is super anti fun

#

oh svaron randomly took your healer support now you lost 70% of your sustain or damaging buffs

#

yay

sly ember
sly ember
#

Blatantly taking my character is a very stage boss thing to do, but when you only have 3 goddamn combat options, it really doesn't suit the gameplay

#

In Final Fantasy for instance. "Oh, you sent my healer/tank to another dimension for 3 turns? Fine, I'll just switch to my Paladin job/rely on my multi-role spell list. It'll be hard, but I can manage"

#

Now imagine if Fu Xuan's next turn would need you to cast her skill to keep it up for the next 3 turns

NOPE. Kidnapped by Svarog

final nebula
#

yes but sleeping or fear or paralyse all had to counter play beside just do massive damage or break the enemy element to be saved

#

like the hand should be able to be broken by anyone

#

just my opinion

#

if thats your game

#

i dont have to get the right element or to 1 shot it

sly ember
#

I get ya. I honestly forgot how Svarog's boss loop worked, it's been that long since I played

final nebula
#

thats just a simple example

sly ember
#

Fuck the element and break system

final nebula
#

lately i see they added even more dumb mechanics such as

#

super break

#

a break that happen when you hit someone broken?

sly ember
#

Tf is super break???

#

Whaaaaa

final nebula
#

so you can keep proccing it but only few units use it

#

and these units that use it

#

also have the ability to apply weakness

#

of their own element

#

firefly for example is the newest unit

#

and she can make everything weak to fire

#

why use silver wolf anymore?

#

and the other guy that use super break also has the same ability but uses it against 1 target

sly ember
#

Why even bother at this point lmao

final nebula
#

its not even her skill i think the intro or whatever use technique before fight does that

#

it was obvious they will do dumbshits like this in future

sly ember
#

Why tf they all look like figurines

image.png
final nebula
#

they all look not interesting

#

not a single character in zzz is interesting

#

its like here you get serval

#

wait 2 months

#

then you get kafka

#

serval but much better of a character

#

literally same character

sly ember
final nebula
#

but one can procc everyones dots

#

and the other one is just thunder dots

#

and pretend they are nihiliyt or destruction

#

powercreep in turn based is fine

#

but a game with 2 buttons should not have a powercreep everything has kinda the same plan

#

and same tools

#

and the same supports

#

all i see is the same 2 supports in any hsr video

#

ruan mei

#

or ruan mei

#

maybe sparkle

#

thats it

sly ember
#

In usual ones, every character was good at what they did, for the whole game

Your starter healer would end up being going from a White Mage to a Sage role or something, whereas your Warrior could evolve to be a Dark Knight etc

Everything you could be and ever will be, is right there in your starting characters

And here in HSR, we get Serval 2.0. Clara 2.0. Wait till they make Seele 2.0

final nebula
#

and back in 1.0

#

it was always tingyun

#

even tho wukong is 10 times more interesting

#

#

I tried to like HSR but it was bone dry in its combat

#

So damn lacking in so many ways

#

Yet there's people out there defending it with their lives

#

Still remember the time I got flamed on the official subreddit for a comment saying "A dodge chance mechanic would be heaps nice"

#

People were like "Go back to Persona" or "Git gud"

Bruh. All I want is for the main gameplay loop to have variety

final nebula
#

git gud

#

use fuxuan + dps + 2 supports

#

that is what is git gud

#

and get the better roles to be able to clear

# terse viper i think HSR still is the best of everything , I dont feel anything to ZZZ though...

I just don't like how little initiative the combat shows for being...unique, I guess? Using other turn based games like LAD or Persona as comparisons, HSR felt really flat to me. Story, setting and characters are an easy 7/10 tho. Like honestly, if HSR stayed just the way it is, but the moment you hit/get hit by an enemy to start combat, you were put into HI3 arena hack n slash combat? I would have loved HSR to no end

As for ZZZ, I...don't even know what I'm doing anymore. It feels like I'm playing a weird recreation of Persona with the combat half mashed between Scarlet Nexus's aesthetics, and HI3's fundamentals

#

Like, look, I wanna love ZZZ. It has the potential to be unique and hip and fresh

But it just feels so bland. From the character facial textures to the plot

# terse viper i think most want to love the game ZZZ but lets be honest the game design is bad...

Oh for combat, there is less than zero questions. I will literally go back to PGR after I hit my first barrier in ZZZ (I'm literally playing it as long as I have coz it's a Friday and I have nothing to do)

I've never been much of a fan of arena hack and slashes as I call em (PGR being the exception, and a very big one at that) but ZZZ's other factors just fall so flat that I can't the combat for them anymore

terse viper
#

people claim (entitled tubers) the combat starts after story and stuff and in end game I will see for it myself

#

PGR is a good game though , i think better than WuWa in terms of story and stuff , but game demands too much time , which i am glad wuwa doesnt take dedcated time much

It's like smooth plastic

Literally figurines

final nebula
#

i think it is just the art style i think they do have a little bit of facial e texture but tbh i dont bother much of how smooth animations are usually at least the facial ones

#

but since you mention this

#

maybe this is why they use comic book to tell the story

sly ember
#

Which I absolutely fkin love

#

Especially with the ability to go back and re-read

#

But ye idk, the facial textures. Maybe it really is deliberate, being the art style they chose. I personally don't like it

Reminds me of some...things from Blender

Very low quality stuff

# sly ember Lesson learned, never to be forgotten

AG don't require you to get multiple copies of S char.
more copies is to upgrade basic stat and extra bonus lvl ( just 1 ) to passive upgrade able stuff rather giving extra kit.
Reaching omega is for whale or A / B type character.
Functor pull is the one which will upgrade kit / change kit, not a must, but good to have, quite costly and will require rng for this part. ( pull ticket from shifted star , so count wisely on it )

rocky tangle
#

AG is nieche & dont have real personality tbh
It has hardly anything going for it aside from chain ult

sly ember
#

Maybe I can decide better when I play enough of both

Hi3 has animation bait
Pgr has combat, crazy outfits, story & Bosses
Ag dont have anything compared to them tbh

i think i like the story personally maybe , i do see people dont like pgr story that much ,
but from the start i was hooked up with it and this is why i got to connect with almost all the chars their personality and stuff
i think pgr and r1999 have sold story to go back to time to time

# final nebula can you give a full honest opinion on why this

i dunno what u specifically asking but i will give my thoughts on ZZZ

  1. Story is whatever or should i say story have no solid ground or impact in the game
    2.Combat also have no meaning , the element , class , like old school games like 10 years old games
    3.chars have no appeal either kit or design , i feel nothing towards them
  2. the only good thing is the music is 10/10
    personal opinion
  3. in game combat is blurry for me , and its horribly noticable while using billy
    2.game not optimized enough , 40 gb space for what ? where is content ? 40 gb for all those TV's ?
  4. game eating resorces way more than genshin proof of game badly optimized

# gusty ferry I still don't have idea why that happened x_X And why Skuld must die. It is gr...

The biggest reason for Skuld's dying was beneficial on which is considered to be depressing.. her biggest regrets is not being part of some group like in AG, since they were tested as labrats by CORG.. Skuld has an unique ability to go on a dream state but it had minor issues due to being incomplete yet.. Once her dream state got reset she will be in the smae position like nothin' happened.. Plus her acquiring a new ability can changed the tides of AG's future.. (Odin being stabbed to death, All Zenkibo Squad got annihilated, MC being treated as an outsider from existing alone and Lastly Verthandi killing us on rare sight) The cases for MC to meet up with Skuld can also lead him getting killed. One couple more scenarios dat do makes senses is for Odin being alive in the real time and manage to prevent death by being immune to Skuld's ability which leaves her decimated on the spot (Tho they gib us an additional chapter of wut it truly happened in MC's POV)
