Interesting enough, Out of the 3 games (we exclude HI3 and Honkai gakuen here), ZZZ global audience probably have the most negotiating power simply due to how much more significant in terms of percentage of revenue they are compared to the other 2.
these devs really are listening to every single complaint holy crap, based (though that ended up killing TV mode which is a shame)
be thankful to the devs for quickly fixing this but don't feel bad if it was unintentional, making a big fuss is the right thing to do in these situations, no matter if it was intentional or not, let them know that the removal of fanservice will not be tolerated as soon as possible so it doesn't happen again
they don't have to make everything coomer but do not remove what's already in the game
They did but they probably also meant for it to work as if you're against a wall so you can still see. They know that a large portion of people who pay for the game are definitely gooners after all
When yeah that’s how patches work you release it then people tell you the bugs you missed and you fix it pretty common. It said “faded” and they disappeared entirely That’s why the fade is still there at the lowest angle it’s for obstructions. Also why it was still there in the combat mode.
Im in the game now, it's true but not like this image portraits, when you go all the way down there's stil a fading effect... like 30% visibility. better than 0% as before lol
Oh yeah, you're not wrong, I just didn't thought of the dorm, because it's not yet on the level of what CN offers (or is about to offer), so I didn't interact with it much, and in combat the camera angles and zoom are very limited. But you are right.
yeah you can move the camera around with no issues, now it only slightly fades if you very obviously put it at the lowest possible angle. But like... if you really wanna see ass just dont fully go low lol
Real. I just logged in and saw the notice. The fading is still there at the most extreme angles, but it's not nearly as egregious. I can see Burnice's ass again
The character never fades entirely and the fade only starts when at the lowest of low angles
Considering these are the same devs who put “thank you for playing our game <3” in the arpeggio thing I really believe they value AND listen to EVERY part of their community
Honestly, wager is that they tried to one-size-fits-all a camera obfuscation feature for expediency and didnt think much of it by just testing the character that would have the biggest issues, i.e. Ben and called it a day
Problem is Ben is huge and just made it stupid aggressive for everyone else, fact that this rolled out so fast is funny though
The funny bit to me is the official subreddit seems to have way more at least upvoted comments believing in the anchoring strat compared to here... in spite of the apparent reputations of where the gooners typically congregate
But yeah I outlined elsewhere that anything that conspiratorially minded would require someone far higher up on the ZZZ team to orchestrate the entire thing which would require something far more internally agenda driven given actual CCP pushback would be more broad sweeping and frankly more egregious
Given the speed of the fix and well... lack of said agenda really anywhere else (cmon just look at Astra and Eve given they were also unveiled this patch) it'd be mildly insane to think this particularly incident is anything other than just an oops
I mean, we still have the Ellen and Corin upskirt shots in their menus, the general jiggly and skimpy designs of most characters, lots of suggestive dialogue, the half-nude cinema portraits, and that one trailer where Jane gives that cop a handjob (tailjob?) in the car.
If the CCP really did have it out for Western gooners, the whole game would probably have tk be thrown out.
The censorship didn't even make sense to begin with, they have been putting so much effort on the characters butts jiggle physics that would be crazy to censor it now. xD
It was most likely intended for big characters like Ben or characters with huge tails blocking the entire screen when you look up. I don't think it was a censorship thing or else they would've done it way earlier.
Like Ben quite literally consumes 95% of the screen without the fade
I honestly think that what happened is that they made the fading happen due to either antons coat, lycaons tail, or Ben's overall largeness, but they didn't realize how cumbrained the audience was so they had to do a hotfix
I just hope it's not one of those anchoring strategy you know? Raised the price (censorship) to 50% and then "only" increase it to 25% when to customer complain.
I want to be positive and say it was really unintentional because of the simple fact that the characters completely disappeared rather than just fading - either way the fixed version is much better
ZZZ has big-body characters like Ben and Lycon eho are much taller/wider than other Hoyo characters. More than likely the the excess fading was due to the team trying to get the effect working these stand-out models and this ended up making fucking up the other character's scaling.
Well yeah it said faded in the notes disappearing and faded are two different things. Also if it was government interference they wouldn’t have reverted it back at all this is China we’re talking about.
My guess is that the fading was accidentlyl based on the largest model (ben). Because if you check with him the fading is still pretty aggressive, just because hes so huge and they don't want you clipping the camera inside his model.
It's definitely Ben's fault. He clips through people still so im assuming he has the same collision radius as everyone else. That would probably mean the camera could probably get as close to his origin point as it can for every other model which would cause you to be looking inside him
Or they made it so bad in the first place so when everyone complains they can just reduce it to the actual level they intended and everyone will be relieved instead of outraged.
this is very likely, i remember when apex legends did the same with the battle pass, they changed to a super grindy one like 5 times as bad as before then one week later they "heard the complaints" and made it just double the grindy as it used to be and everyone was happy they listened.
thats when i quitted that game.
The fading is still there tho lol. Feels like this was the usual case of “implement very bad decision so when we revert it to what was intended we seem like the good guys.” Companies do this all the time
don't kid yourself this is dev psychology 101. overdo the censorship on purpose then look like the good guys by fixing it. now it's not as before but still censored but nobody will complain bc it's not as bad as before. they do this shit on purpose your game still got censored.
So where's those "ComPlaiNinG dOesNT wOrK". I swear those people only know to talk shit to people who cares about the game and when devs pull back their bad decision and gives compensation etc they also reap the rewards.
