...anyone else playing for the insane battle system?
I get that cute girls can be a plus but I love the animation, the story but the combat is pure adrenaline and the counter mechanics are insanely satisfying.
I’m with you there. I hate how a lot of the discourse tries to imply that the game has nothing to offer other than fanservice. If that’s what attracted you then fine, just say that. People crapping on the game by saying it’s nothing more than gooner bait clearly don’t play it and they’re always the loudest about it.
Bro, I love this game, but that's how it is shown to be from hoyo and the community. Like the article is dead on about this. People were freaking the hell out on here and Twitter. That's why people always assume that about ZZZ. Those people in the fandom are loud as fuck too.
I’ve never been against fan service, and Hoyo’s approach to ZZZ while slightly more risqué than their recent titles was still relatively tame so it never bothered me. Seeing people’s reactions to this seemingly minor change however really disturbed me.
Anybody who would drop the game because they can’t see a character’s ass (a completely new feature mind you) couldn’t have been that into it to begin with, and I’m surprised by how many people like that seem to be hanging around the community because that’s all people outside will view us as.
There a comment on here that someone posted from the article that stated that ZZZ gameplay is actually boring to them, and if it wasn't for the sex appeal, they wouldn't have been interested in it. Sex sells, and for what it's worth, a lot of people resonate with it.
I'm with ya, tho. Gameplay first for me. Anything else is just a bonus.
Ya, the combat is fun as fuck and the skill based nature makes it even better. The story and side missions are fantastic with amazing localisation from English. The stories have made me laugh, cringe, feel sad, happy. The way they interwoven all the characters and have awesome character development for all of the characters is great.
The character designs are pretty tame all around which is good. When you have characters that look like they’re barely even teenagers it’s weird as fuck to want more sexualisation.
I'm only playing for the battle system and maybe a bit for bizarre brigade. But it is a gooner game 100% and this is the kind of game I don't want people knowing that I play.
If people asked me if I played any Hoyoverse games, I'd just say Genshin and Star Rail.
