Not that anon, but your "problems" can be fixed with mods, too bad godawful mihoyo-style gameplay and story can't be.
They gimp the movesets of characters on purpose to justify their gameplay with character juggling in combat which then justifies their gacha.
If they made the characters fun and good to play on their own then many people would stop using the gacha once they find their favorite character.
Don't have high hopes. In terms of character designs not many appeal to me besides Nicole and Billy, which will most likely be shit free starting characters. In terms of gameplay its a lot less likely you'll be able to just brute force with off meta 4*s like Genshin since combat IS the core gameplay and they aren't targeting as wide of a casual market.
I'll give it a shot but it'll probably end up like Star Rail. Decent on its own but not enough to justify keeping up with updates/events in another live service game. Although I mostly dropped Star Rail because its lore jargon was unappealing as frick to me and mixing in pop culture references in the localization just made me fricking cringe. Hope it does well though.
Why are they putting out so many gachas at the same time? This cannot possibly not go wrong, the fans are just going to get burnt out and disillusioned having to juggle 3 gachas at once.
People were burning out on genshit not having enough shit to do not even 6 months past launch, you have no idea how dopamine starved gacha whales can get.
>ZZZ is a 3D rougelike.
that's not a fricking genre. It'd be like calling something an arcade game, it's not descriptive at all about how it actually plays
Only gacha-brained coomers will play multiple for an extensive period. Even then most of them know that only Star Rail is remotely close to the auto-battle PNG slop they usually eat up and that the other mihoyo are a little more time intesnive. fotmgays and "content creators" will play the new one for a couple months as they abandon the last.
Genshin will maintain the biggest audience overall for a couple reasons and will peter out in a few years while still printing money. StarRail will die down in a mainstream sense, still prominent in gacha but will maintain its niche. ZZZ will likely follow a similar lifeline. From my understanding Mihoyo has one or two massive projects that are going for the even more levels of mainstream than Genshin.
Nah after HSR, I'm not touching anymore of their slop. Chinks can't write for shit and it's laughable how much they shamelessly rip off Japanese stuff.
>and will peter out in a few years while still printing money.
Already has really. The fanbase isn't growing, it's in decline at this point. Some of these reruns and new banners have been absolutely embarrassing. I quit the game. I heard they added furries now.
>The fanbase isn't growing, it's in decline at this point.
Wasn't the Hu Tao/Yelan rerun a few months back the best selling banner in the game's history?
>Already has really. The fanbase isn't growing, it's in decline at this point.
Eh, easy to say during a lull period but it'll ebb and flow. Fontaine and underwater mechanics will give it a good boost. It's not going anywhere, that's for fricking sure. >I heard they added furries now.
They've always had furries.
do most genshin players play starrail and vice versa? I tend to see people call themselves "mihoyo fans" rather than "genshin/honkai fans" so it gives me the impression that they play everything that they have (or at least the new popular ones)
NTA but i quit HI3 after playing GI a while, and now play HSR after having quit GI a year ago
no idea how people juggle gachas, but that's probably why they end up hating one game or another, just trying to burn through content and forgetting games are supposed to be fun
No, most don't but a lot of Star Rail's fanbase is just Genshin players, I reckon. Since launching, the only game that's really taken a hit is Genshin. Every other gacha game is just sort of marching along as usual.
Unfortunately Star Rail has nothing to do so it's already bleeding players. I don't think that game will ever be bigger than what it's been up to this point.
>I don't think that game will ever be bigger than what it's been up to this point.
It's still new so they have a lot to work with, if we were in this state after a year, I'd be like yeah, shit's over

moron will literally never stop giving money to mihoyo
I wanted to see if this was real, and sorry to say lads it is literally just geometry clipping. There is nothing under the shorts.
You may not be able to tell whats going on in this image, but basically there is only 1 layer of faces and that is the shorts. There is ZERO GEOMETRY under the shorts so it is impossible for there to be pussy lips to be showing.
Also this is the geometry from the beta, which is where that clip comes from so its the exact same model.
Sorry lads no coomer model for you
>fantasy >space opera fantasy >urban fantasy
I know that mihoyo just follows what is trending among normalgays, but is there absolutely no demand for anything that isn't fricking fantasy?
Combat looks more fun than genshin's but we'll see. The issue with this company's games is that the player retention and replayability are always so fricking terrible, starrail made it a little bit better but its genre is its weakpoint, turn-based games generally just fricking suck to keep playing for long periods of time unless its something new. ZZZ has the potential to be great.
why do all the cool looking anime games HAVE to be gacha? like seriously all these games could be so much better if they were normal single player games
no hes right its strange that we cant get a straight anime game it has to be gacha or it will turn out to be senran kagura or the sword art online games
>compromising the gameplay by turning 90% of your playtime into boring daily chores, the story by having multiple months long cliffhangers and the progression by tying it to rng isn't an issue
because gacha makes the money
only when Whales across the world get bored of videogames as a whole will things change, and thats not likely going to happen anytime soon if ever.
modern games are expensive to develop, so it's a bad idea to bank on one time sales instead of having a steady revenue stream
>exhibit A: make money >exhibit B: make MORE money
it's not rocket science
the funny thing about mihoyo is that they sort of ignore B, as they could make insane bank with skins and cosmetic items, but only release a handful of skins a year, and then apparently only because the character is some important employee's waifu/husbando. I wonder if they'd improve revenue if they directly sold characters up to, say, C2, then left C3-6 up to pulls
mihoyo plays the long game, they are betting on longer player retention over quick bucks... don't know how it will work out for them, how many still play Genshin?
Star Rail killed any interest I had for this. Imagine making a turn based rpg with every character only having 2 abilities and 1 ultimate. Even fricking Genshin has more attacks
Cause if you gave a character 4 abilities that's one less character, besides in some of the most popular shit like Persona, sure you can have like 5 abilities on someone, but you'll only ever really spam one or two, *maybe* 3.
Most of the fun comes with how characters blend with each other anyway
I started P5 the other day and so far there's: >shoot gun >normal attack >3 persona abilities >USE ITEMS
also >Most of the fun comes with how characters blend with each other anyway
yes, which is why lots of jrpgs let you choose what skills to equip like in Xenoblade. Some abilities synergize better with certain characters or are simply better against certain bosses
>. Imagine making a turn based rpg with every character only having 2 abilities and 1 ultimate
Compared to the absolute majority of JRPGs where you use your best ability every turn with no regards to what's standing before you, it's an improvement.
this
the combat in HSR requires strategy. GI combat is less strategic than HSR. ZZZ is very close to HI3 in gameplay so it'll be somewhere in between those two at a faster pace. it might be okay, stimulating at least.
>Why does mihoyo keep making gachashit
they are a mobile developer
you can't make any money selling games on mobile, you have to go freemium, even Nintendo found this out
Thank frick. I was in Sausalito two weeks ago and what I witnessed there compared to how it was 5 years ago made me lose have any remaining hope I had for this country. I knew it had become a shithole but I had no idea how bad it had gotten.
>excited
oh fricking boy wowie zowie another never-ending daily chores simulator with a gacha system and shallow gameplay.
sorry but a year of genshit Black personpact was enough for me. I bet this game will also have unskippable textboxes just like every other Black personhoyo game
I'm interested on this game, but isn0t Mihoyo shooting themselves on the foot releasing that many big budget games? some are bound to die, or worst make people leave Genshin, the biggest one
Its probably a good idea for them to diversify their sources of income. Putting all your eggs in one basket and it going to shit would frick them in the long run.
>one of the biggest

Doesn't matter, Blackrock covers their losses.
Also frick gachaslop, and furthermore I denounce the Talmund.
On mobile? It's a fun way to kill a little time which is all phone games ever should be. If you are talking about playing it on PC play a real game instead.
that's why they're making lots of games, because they know people left/will leave genshin and want to recapture them
Its probably a good idea for them to diversify their sources of income. Putting all your eggs in one basket and it going to shit would frick them in the long run.
The budget is fraction of what they earn, genshin still on top of the board during dead patch and star rail launch
I guess all of this makes sense, the one game thing still worked for Epic with Fortnite tho, I just hope these new games get the same care and updates as Genshin and don't die a year after releasing
The day Genshin starts dying is the day people stop making posts saying its dying. It's not going anywhere for another 3 years. Can't wait till it gets the Cyberpunk anime treatment with Ufotable and attracts even more normies to it.
I would fricking love a Genshin killer, it ain't happening within the next 3 years.
>I would fricking love a Genshin killer, it ain't happening within the next 3 years.
it's never happening, closet was Blue Protocol (lol Amazon)
Japs are too cheap
That looks cool but there's no point playing a gacha that isn't Genshin.
Genshin is good because 99% of the game has frick all to do with gacha, but other gachas are nothing but combat so like 80% of the game is gacha related.
Your mileage may vary, I shill it because I find it fun as frick and it feels like a hidden gem, also you have 100% chance on hard pity for the current patches banner character and always enough currency to never have to skip so f2p never gets fricked over like they do in mihoyo games
That really depends on your point of view. I'm tired of Genshin, only the gacha bullshit has kept me checking it out this long. If I want to play an actual video game, there's plenty of stuff to play besides this janky phone port with an in-game casino. If I just want to roll some characters I'd rather play an autobattler on my phone
It's the opposite. Star Rail freaks are always seething about Genshin for some reason. I think the rest of the world recognizes SR just has shitty combat so there's no point in playing it.
I'm just glad it's different than Genshin.
Been playing since Day 1 and it's getting so boring just one shotting everything, Abyss and exploration are still fun but outside of that, I'm drained.

>breasts >buff dudes >strongmen (forma peluda)
What was going through their minds when they decided to make zenless, genshin and star rail designs are so plain and dogshit in comparision.
nah genshin is a cool zelda game bogged down by it's story and gacha systems
zzz will be a fun hack and slash that doesn't ask you to click through 10 dialog options to complete a quest
I can’t speak for their other games, but >Roll for C2 Raiden, C2 Nahida, and maybe C0 Zhongli >Trivialize every piece of content in Genshin
It’s reasonable for even F2P players.
Genshin became a chore to me, I quit it for Star Rail and so far I'm having fun.
But yeah it's weird they didn't give this game any content. Confidence that Genshinsloppers would play it anyway, I guess?
1.2 and 1.3 will make or break this game. 1.2 looks promising with new areas and finally some fricking story, but a 1.3 filler patch would be terrible.
it probably will be. every other patch a filler patch. it sucks as a passionate player, but it’s a reminder that the target audience of gachashit are salaryman whales who play on commute. not to imply some of those guys aren’t passionate players.
>Genshin became a chore to me, I quit it for Star Rail and so far I'm having fun.
Then next year you will say >Star Rail became a chore to me, I quit it for ZZZ and so far I'm having fun.

>hitting damage sponges 3

Ok you got me anon. I can hardly think of any, but that only proves my point that people will settle for anything since we're deprived of those style of games
the age rating for ZZZ is higher than genshin, teen 16+ versus 12 all ages, also being made outside of China proper... will it escape censorship, we'll see, also Global get censored because of westoid countries too, you can get it from both sides theses days
if that were true then they’d just go ahead and have already made coomershit for the global audience, they’ll still censor it even with the raised age rating. probably just be a few sex jokes or something
these gachas just have shit stories
you know when you start watching a good anime and get that feeling inside and start really vibing with it and getting intrigued?
none of that shit with gacha, it's slop
they literally just copy other gachas, the story's always the blandest, safest shit you can think of or some pretentious shit like arknights
you come into arknights thinking you'll get some tacticool kino and war shit
instead you're hit with pseudophilosophical, pretentious 100-page filler chinkslop with grade 4-tier musings on obvious shit that can be summarized as "war bad" and characters that don't have actual warrior grit, just cute catgirls going >uwu... war bad...
and then kal'shit wakes up and gives you a shitty 500-page monologue in the middle of a war after a bunnygirl dies or some shit
worst parts of anime writing combined with chinkslop, holy FRICK man
you launch genshin expecting some epic of gilgamesh shit where you're killing gods and you get absolutely horrible, vile, bland chinkslop of a story, safest, most predictable, most boring, unskippable time-wasting SHIT
the whole game's like a tiny playground for manchildren with the absolute minimum effort put into it when you realize the world is actually 2cm deep, there's nothing to do in this shitty world
so far, blue archive's the only gacha that has a good story, because it doesn't take itself too seriously, knows how to have fun and doesn't waste the reader's time, there's no text filler in the game
It's more that gachas have inconsistent stories
One update you might have some beyond based "what does it mean to be alive?" ghost in the shell kino, then a few patches later It's suddenly about impossible boss monsters coming up out of nowhere and murdering the whole earth's population just because, and then force you through 3 hours of pure bloated chinkslop suffering porn VN for your troubles.
And right after this since it's a live service game they have to come up with asspulls for why actually everyone is fine or just conveniently forget it ever happened so the NEW patch character can be focused on
Haven't played genshin so I can't comment on its story specifically, I just hate the really long VN's that interrupt gameplay while saying nothing
Each region's story is extremely self contained to the point that you could more or less reorder their place in the story with minor changes.
The actual story of MC finding their sibling basically never moved an inch, with the only development being their sibling telling them to enjoy Genshin Impact™ and fricking off.
It's just really annoying because it seems obvious all of these gacha games must have seperate staff assigned to different patches in the pipeline so the stories always feel schizophrenic unless a huge chunk of them all came out in the same timeframe
It's like they all have a whiteboard with the broad story outline but one writer thinks he's writing a thriller, one writer thinks he's writing metal gear solid and the third writer thinks he's writing a ww2 biography
yeah It’s a shame too, because some of the stuff ends up being prettygood or at least enjoyable
HSR so far has significantly better writing than genshin but we’ll see how long that lasts, hopefully a while.
ZZZ seems to have some fairly interesting lore and wordbuilding potential but low expectations are the best idea
either way, none of this shit comes comes anywhere close to shonen manga

>dont they have enough games?
I worry they'll reach a point where they have to maintain too much shit so players will be forced to play 6 different games in order to get a steady stream of updates. ie. genshin gets an update every ~3 weeks, but now since they also have to do star rail, zzz, honkai, etc. patch cycles will be much further apart.
The setting is comfy, very Galaxy 999, but otherwise it's the same Genshin shit, but not as smooth/streamlined cause it's Honkai devs being told to ape Genshin instead of making their own styles
It was a nice change from genshit for a while but once you hit the content wall it's the same shit of waiting months for patches only for a day or less of actual content with daily chores being your 5 minutes of gameplay per day.
So HSR is kind of a mixed bag, it's very interesting how they managed to tie the gacha into innovating the '4 homies in a row' genre where they realized that every character always has a meta best attack and a meta best build - so instead of 6ish characters with 12 useless attacks you have 20ish characters with basic/special/ult
Since you can't have every single character without whaling like a moron the game ends up with you constantly swapping characters in and out, adjusting composition and tactics of the party because there's no right answer that works 100% of the time
The massive flaw of this system is your party members completely shatter all ludonarratove dissonance, most of them canonically should be somewhere else yet they're inexplicably fighting with you when you should canonically be with only 3-4 specific characters relevant to that areas story
As for the story of the game it's definitely targeted at a younger zoomer, female or manchild audience, typical power of friendship etc shonen stuff with tonnes of cosplay and fujobait, nothing groundbreaking, it's still serviceable and fun enough to enjoy though
Personally I haven't loaded it back up since the last patch because I just don't give a shit about autistically grinding materials for my units when it doesn't even matter, and just want more main story and new planets
I'm excited for it, it's great they got Waterkuma for the designs. Can see they're already censoring underwear but whatever, whole world is gay now. I think it will be a very laid back game in terms of gameplay but maybe on the heavier side of the grind. I'll probably stay f2p and skip the homos and furries.
>All the money in the world >Still making Honkai clones >Spam basic attack, 1 skill, 1 ultimate
I'm so glad Granblue Relink is going to shit on all these mediocre action games using game design from the year 2000
I don't care that much about the Granblue universe besides the character designs but the gameplay looks interesting. Hopefully I'll be able to jump into it without having to read up 2000 pages of lore and worldbuilding. Is it going to be a full priced single-player RPG? Is it going to have gacha mechanics like Genshin?
They say it's a full priced complete game on release with a solo campaign and online co-op missions similar to Monster Hunter. IIRC there's no gacha mechanics
gameplay was more like the left picture, a top-down game where you walk around and mostly fight bosses on a circular area, with enemy attack tells from colored arrows/cones like in pic distinguishing iframe-dodgeable attacks from undodgeable ones
Relink looks exactly like it, except with a more dynamic 3D camera work like most action vrawlers out there
Ah I've never been a fan of that kind of gameplay, I'm enjoying action games where you have to read enemy windups and react a lot more than 'WoW run out of the red circle'
Unfortunately it will suffer from every other Mihoyo game: held back my mobile devices so it will never reach its true potential. >why isn't there more stuff in Genshin
it has to run on phones >why is there a teapot limit
it has to run on phones >why is hsr nothing but hallways and white text over black background
it has to run on phones >why don't they make more stuff permanent
it has to run on phones >why are all these npc models reused
it has to run on phones
Gauging interest and seeing what needs to be changed. Core mechanics cannot be altered, but other things can, off the top of my head, the roguelike aspect could be redone due to complaints that the screen hopping thing was bad for various reasons.
Mihoyo has the luxury of doing this because of the shit ton of money Genshin brought in.
Same thing happened to Star Rail. It’s probably stuck in review hell by the CCP agents. Star Rail had no news for a year too, then suddenly it got approval and we had a final beta test and release date.
Here's some leaked characters from the cbt
But there was some major leaks on twitter for the game about 2 weeks ago.
I'm curious if anyone got them before they were scrubbed clean?
most people interested in ZZZ already know who waterkuma is, I can only see this be a problem if the genshit normalgays find out about it considering how insufferable they are.
Yeah they even made it worse in Star Rail, since there's an extra 2-piece set with different bonuses. So instead of needing a 4-piece set and then one free one, you need a 4-piece set and another 2-piece set
>Does HSR also have that kind of shit?
Yeah, down to the diluted random main/sub stats with shit like effect resistance and speed. Now there's SIX slots! Enjoy!
Fricking hell, i'll avoid any mihoyo games until they stop with this shit, thanks for the heads up
It will never stop because Mihoyo needs to have a stamina/resin/TP sink people have to grind on otherwise their player retention would go to shit. There would be zero reason to log in beyond doing daily commissions for welfare gacha currency.
Star Rail doesn't even feel like grinding because of autobattle. And that's why zzz may suck a lot because you will probably have to grind even more than in genshin.

You wish, they get infinite ESG money to keep shoving trannies down everyone's throats, their games could sell zero copies and it wouldn't make a difference
The problem with 95% of these including nikke is that they either aren't videogames or they have the barest justification of a video game slapped on top
Someone showed some nikke gameplay earlier in the thread and it's unsalvageable no matter how much budget they throw on polishing it
How are you gonna sit there and tell me holding your mouse or thumb in one place while your characters rapid fire at a bullet sponge for 5 minutes is fun?
This is like the pure definition of a polished turd, at least in time crisis you were aiming the actual gun and either enemies or you died fast, arcade shooters are supposed to have lots of twitch reflexes involved especially on bosses
??? They were shooting loads of projectiles down in what I posted while also shooting target markers the boss made.
It's hard to actually see the difficulty of the fight because that's what always happens when you post a person clearing content
But yes it's not a twitch shooter (when it comes to bosses) it's more like an mmo where you have to follow the rules of the boss.

There were like 5ish boulders that come in a straight line so fast that if you weren't already aiming at their spawn their hp didn't drop in time, meaning even reflex means nothing there

There's so many ways this could be made fun but because it's a gacha which requires powering up units instead of having a variety of strong impactful weapons (yes I can see the girls have different weapons it doesn't change my point) it has to be a dps race against bullet sponges by necessity instead of a high speed light gunner and that's just awful
This is a great example of a game where the business model actually fricked over possibilities for the gameplay, not that the deranged coomers who play it care

Mihoyo and mihoyo-clones proved that you don't have to sacrifice your games core experience for the gacha to work
If I was to design a light gun gacha I would tie abilities to units not raw stats, getting dupes to rank up the unit gives more abilities and make the game heavily focused on elemental resistances/weaknesses
This way you can have strong guns/classes/weapons without needing to sacrifice fast paced gameplay and still needing team compositions to beat resistance combinations or shields

Just because a game is a gacha doesn't mean it has to suck it just means the designers had no imagination and weren't thinking of how to make the gameplay feel good beyond mmo skinner boxing

You mean the abyss where people can full clear with only 4*? Or with just the free 4* characters given to anyone? That's not even mentioning sub 2 week account clears. Meanwhile idle trash like Nikke are pure stat/meta check.

>Are you trying to imply 4 stars don't have stats?
Genshin's statcheck is so low that every single unit can pass it without paying or dupes/weapons/whatever, which can't be said for 99% of gachas, which makes you seethe because Nikke has almost no skill expression and is extremely 5* meta dependent. >Show me your all 4 star clear of the current abyss cycle
There are a gorillion 4* only abyss clears on youtube.
Here's what came on top of the search results.

The more you play genshin the more it sucks.
Eventually the only thing you can do in the game that will challenge you is abyss once ever 2 fricking weeks and it's worse because if you actually work on your characters to make them able to beat the abyss you make you overworked experience fricking trivial and boring.
All the boss fights become worthless outside of abyss.
Litterally everything becomes boring.

I guess it just depends how fun the fights are, if you can play your whaled out day1 characters in a games story missions yeah its not gonna be fun because there's no challenge, you actually have more fun with these games when you stay as a f2p/dolphin or if the devs realize they should put you on trial characters during story missions so they can properly tune the challenge
That said even if you're beefed up a bit pgr bosses are still fun

That's an insult to arcade shooters. We all know noone cares about Nikke's dogshit gameplay, it's all about ass and breasts.

Yes it is, arcade shooters have actual mechanics, value gameplay and target hardcore players. It is an insult and you are an moron c**t who probably unironically plays gacha games. Sad.
>Mihoyo churning out tons of stolen assets notJapanese gacha that are still fully censored
Why doesn't Japan just do what Mihoyo is doing but not censored? Is this not a gold mine? Blue Archive is one of the nost popular gacha in Japan because it's uncensored coomerbait but it's only tapping the chibi autobattler market.
BA is made by koreans, published by chinks for the Jp market.
And no, Japs will never make a genchink competitor, it took ~100 mil to make, and Japs are cheap as frick, they'd rather make 100 gacha and have 99 fail rather than make one huge game.
100mil for chink company is 200mil for jap company to do basically the same and 500mil for burger
chink and korean are the 2 countries with highest cost/quality ratio for game development
100mil for chink company is 200mil for jap company to do basically the same and 500mil for burger
chink and korean are the 2 countries with highest cost/quality ratio for game development
>we live in a timeline where Chinese is synonymous with high quality
What happened?
high quality for the cost
the cost for average code monkey in US is way too high, basically premium at this point
this is why dont ever expect anything resembling Genshin from the west unless the whole market crashes
(You) let women en masse into the industry and dictate what was and wasn't allowed in western video games
The current zeitgeist is all downstream from there
>https://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/1987/12/21/69996/index.htm >moronic zoomer doesn't realize that japan went through exactly the same modernization process and accusations as china did in the 80s >except they aren't a vassal state of the usa so their economy can't be forcibly imploded like what the west did with japan
Because of your usual corpo shit rules, like presenting your next hit project so you can get funding from old geezers in suits, the only reason mihoyo got away with a 100m budget because they are a privately own company they can use the money they made on whatever the frick they want they gambled the 100m gneshin could have flopped and they would went under. No same company would ever do that especially if its controlled by board members.
I do think it's somewhat concerning that one company is developing/sustaining four gacha simultaneously now.
At some point things become untenable, right? You run your developers too hard, spread teams out too thin or your company becomes too big to be under proper oversight.
Can we get another game like tears of themis where the only female character is a self insert and everyone else is a /cm/?
>gacha
Nope!
spbp love you chino
also looks like turn based garbage
it's action rogue-like
Star Rail is the turn based one
Genchink is the open world zelda clone
Chinks got it all covered now
ZZZ gameplay loop looks kinda like Hades. But chinkanime and gacha with NieR Automata combat.
chino chan cute
But anon miHoYo gacha is fun! You can beat the whole game with starter character
>HI3 reskinned with furries
not really but i'll play it for like a week
Mihoyo's action gameplay is trash. They really need to fire whoever designs the combat in their games.
They gimp the movesets of characters on purpose to justify their gameplay with character juggling in combat which then justifies their gacha.
If they made the characters fun and good to play on their own then many people would stop using the gacha once they find their favorite character.
that shit won’t release until star rail starts flopping. https://kemono.party/patreon/user/17669583/post/84744796

>Another game for Ganker to seeth
Don't have high hopes. In terms of character designs not many appeal to me besides Nicole and Billy, which will most likely be shit free starting characters. In terms of gameplay its a lot less likely you'll be able to just brute force with off meta 4*s like Genshin since combat IS the core gameplay and they aren't targeting as wide of a casual market.
I'll give it a shot but it'll probably end up like Star Rail. Decent on its own but not enough to justify keeping up with updates/events in another live service game. Although I mostly dropped Star Rail because its lore jargon was unappealing as frick to me and mixing in pop culture references in the localization just made me fricking cringe. Hope it does well though.
Why are they putting out so many gachas at the same time? This cannot possibly not go wrong, the fans are just going to get burnt out and disillusioned having to juggle 3 gachas at once.
People were burning out on genshit not having enough shit to do not even 6 months past launch, you have no idea how dopamine starved gacha whales can get.
how do you spend all days playing gacha games
and still shit load of money to throw at them?
the biggest whales are trust fundies and bitcoin billionaires
yeah its rich parents kids
people who actually make their own money even - on crypto - dont waste time on gachashit
how do I get rich parents?
Probably to cover as many genres as possible for maximum market saturation, since ZZZ is a 3D rougelike.
>ZZZ is a 3D rougelike.
that's not a fricking genre. It'd be like calling something an arcade game, it's not descriptive at all about how it actually plays
>that's not a fricking genre
You know what he means, stop being a homosexual
Only gacha-brained coomers will play multiple for an extensive period. Even then most of them know that only Star Rail is remotely close to the auto-battle PNG slop they usually eat up and that the other mihoyo are a little more time intesnive. fotmgays and "content creators" will play the new one for a couple months as they abandon the last.
Genshin will maintain the biggest audience overall for a couple reasons and will peter out in a few years while still printing money. StarRail will die down in a mainstream sense, still prominent in gacha but will maintain its niche. ZZZ will likely follow a similar lifeline. From my understanding Mihoyo has one or two massive projects that are going for the even more levels of mainstream than Genshin.
Nah after HSR, I'm not touching anymore of their slop. Chinks can't write for shit and it's laughable how much they shamelessly rip off Japanese stuff.
>and will peter out in a few years while still printing money.
Already has really. The fanbase isn't growing, it's in decline at this point. Some of these reruns and new banners have been absolutely embarrassing. I quit the game. I heard they added furries now.
>The fanbase isn't growing, it's in decline at this point.
Wasn't the Hu Tao/Yelan rerun a few months back the best selling banner in the game's history?
>Already has really. The fanbase isn't growing, it's in decline at this point.
Eh, easy to say during a lull period but it'll ebb and flow. Fontaine and underwater mechanics will give it a good boost. It's not going anywhere, that's for fricking sure.
>I heard they added furries now.
They've always had furries.
do most genshin players play starrail and vice versa? I tend to see people call themselves "mihoyo fans" rather than "genshin/honkai fans" so it gives me the impression that they play everything that they have (or at least the new popular ones)
NTA but i quit HI3 after playing GI a while, and now play HSR after having quit GI a year ago
no idea how people juggle gachas, but that's probably why they end up hating one game or another, just trying to burn through content and forgetting games are supposed to be fun
No, most don't but a lot of Star Rail's fanbase is just Genshin players, I reckon. Since launching, the only game that's really taken a hit is Genshin. Every other gacha game is just sort of marching along as usual.
Unfortunately Star Rail has nothing to do so it's already bleeding players. I don't think that game will ever be bigger than what it's been up to this point.
>I don't think that game will ever be bigger than what it's been up to this point.
It's still new so they have a lot to work with, if we were in this state after a year, I'd be like yeah, shit's over
Wonder how a buncha chinese people feel that no one ever really cares for NotChina or Space China and NotJapan and eventually Space Japan is what'll bring in the crowds
they're self-admitted obsessed weebs themselves so they probably get it lol
hopefully whatever big top secret project they're working on is battle royale slop, something more like Warzone and less like F*rtn*te
however it seems their worst fear is to make a multiplayer game, so not holding my breath about this
and if they do it will be like F*rtn*te

gacha always has a high turn over rate, anyone playing HSR or ZZZ already dropped Genshin
ZZZ hasn't released yet moron
that's why I wrote HSR, moron
>Game popularity die down over time
wow, thanks, carposter
not this shit again, everybody and their mum told me to quit genshin for this, and to ignore money you spent on it.
>zero thread
That's just wrong
Almost every Genshin thread is filled to the brim with HSR refugees and shills because there literally aren't enough of them to carry an entire thread from page 10.
i quit genshin for hsr because it's better and genshin sucks
gonna seethe?
Seethe over the fact that you play a game with a dead community? No.
I know you’re ESL, but the term you’re looking for here is pity. I pity you, and every other HSR refugee.
There's nothing.
it's all part of the plan
they can launch shitty banners on genshit so fanboys will rush to star rail
then star rail gets shit banners too and then they flok to ZZZ, rinse and repeat
moron will literally never stop giving money to mihoyo
not the same genre
zzz...
WAKE UP
its gonna be kino
i love and/or loved all their other games at some point but feel no hype for this no matter how much i try
will be gacha so shit by default
new gachaslop? lets goooooooo
Give me furry girls or give me death.
will they censor being able to see her pussy lips when she does that backflip move?
elaborate
took me a while to find it
I will NOW pay $10000 for your gacha
>That mole on her inner thigh
yeah, that's not making it into the final game
wth? I thought Mihoyo was afraid of showing any kind of suggestive sexual shit in their games because it might make Winnie the Pooh angry.
angry fujos snitch on CCP, this game is for men, not fujo, also rated higher than all ages genchink
It's age rating is 16+ to all the others 12+
They had a close up of Kaveh's ass in his trailer and all the c6 characters in star rail have a naked picture
I wanted to see if this was real, and sorry to say lads it is literally just geometry clipping. There is nothing under the shorts.
You may not be able to tell whats going on in this image, but basically there is only 1 layer of faces and that is the shorts. There is ZERO GEOMETRY under the shorts so it is impossible for there to be pussy lips to be showing.
Also this is the geometry from the beta, which is where that clip comes from so its the exact same model.
Sorry lads no coomer model for you

>fantasy
>space opera fantasy
>urban fantasy
I know that mihoyo just follows what is trending among normalgays, but is there absolutely no demand for anything that isn't fricking fantasy?
What the frick would it be besides fantasy? A non-fiction biography gacha?
He probably wanted some spaceslop.
Orientals are incapable of making games that aren't science fantasy.
Combat looks more fun than genshin's but we'll see. The issue with this company's games is that the player retention and replayability are always so fricking terrible, starrail made it a little bit better but its genre is its weakpoint, turn-based games generally just fricking suck to keep playing for long periods of time unless its something new. ZZZ has the potential to be great.
why do all the cool looking anime games HAVE to be gacha? like seriously all these games could be so much better if they were normal single player games
nah
Gacha isn't an issue if you aren't a gambling addict with low impulse control.
no hes right its strange that we cant get a straight anime game it has to be gacha or it will turn out to be senran kagura or the sword art online games
>compromising the gameplay by turning 90% of your playtime into boring daily chores, the story by having multiple months long cliffhangers and the progression by tying it to rng isn't an issue
You hate live service games then, moron, not gacha systems.
because gacha makes the money
only when Whales across the world get bored of videogames as a whole will things change, and thats not likely going to happen anytime soon if ever.
modern games are expensive to develop, so it's a bad idea to bank on one time sales instead of having a steady revenue stream
the funny thing about mihoyo is that they sort of ignore B, as they could make insane bank with skins and cosmetic items, but only release a handful of skins a year, and then apparently only because the character is some important employee's waifu/husbando. I wonder if they'd improve revenue if they directly sold characters up to, say, C2, then left C3-6 up to pulls
mihoyo plays the long game, they are betting on longer player retention over quick bucks... don't know how it will work out for them, how many still play Genshin?
Enough to make their "lowest earning" at #2 under star rail
Star Rail will peak in cultural impact on Planet Japan just like Genshin seemed to do so on Japanazuma
Star Rail killed any interest I had for this. Imagine making a turn based rpg with every character only having 2 abilities and 1 ultimate. Even fricking Genshin has more attacks
Cause if you gave a character 4 abilities that's one less character, besides in some of the most popular shit like Persona, sure you can have like 5 abilities on someone, but you'll only ever really spam one or two, *maybe* 3.
Most of the fun comes with how characters blend with each other anyway
I started P5 the other day and so far there's:
>shoot gun
>normal attack
>3 persona abilities
>USE ITEMS
also
>Most of the fun comes with how characters blend with each other anyway
yes, which is why lots of jrpgs let you choose what skills to equip like in Xenoblade. Some abilities synergize better with certain characters or are simply better against certain bosses
>started
there you go. Late game is just using your best ability
>. Imagine making a turn based rpg with every character only having 2 abilities and 1 ultimate
Compared to the absolute majority of JRPGs where you use your best ability every turn with no regards to what's standing before you, it's an improvement.
this
the combat in HSR requires strategy. GI combat is less strategic than HSR. ZZZ is very close to HI3 in gameplay so it'll be somewhere in between those two at a faster pace. it might be okay, stimulating at least.
that's false unless you either play on easy or grind a lot. Stop playing shitty rpgmaker games
>that's false

what's the point if I have to mod the coom into the game, I'll just play uncensored gacha instead
What's the point of playing gacha if you just need to coom? Are you banned on exhentai or what?
coom content is literally the ONLY reason to play gacha, don't pretend otherwise
if GACHA is enough to make you COOM then you're a fricking normalgay with unsophisticated tastes.
sure keep being obtuse over literally nothing
Says a guy who's on a single man revolution against vanilla sex censorship in videogames for kids.
What am I even reading, coomers are so far gone
Funny how you post the same exact hyperbolic shit as the homosexuals from Twitter. Good job outing yourself as a tourist, moronic newbie.
exactly, so might as well cut the middle man, go directly on coom websites and don't "play" gacha

I'm sick of Genshin open world and dailies
Not much interested in Railways or whatever that turn based RPG of theirs
combat seems fine, not a fan of anything else.
Is there where all their genshin money went?
genshin money went to energy research
it went to fund the CCP and towards the future destruction of America
brb buying more welkin
Does money given to Manjuu go to the same noble goal? I might have to start playing a Mihoyo game if not
They're based from Shanghai, so CCP gets a nice cut, but feel free to donate to the cause.

sorry but a year of genshit Black personpact was enough for me. I bet this game will also have unskippable textboxes just like every other Black personhoyo game
I'm interested on this game, but isn0t Mihoyo shooting themselves on the foot releasing that many big budget games? some are bound to die, or worst make people leave Genshin, the biggest one
~50 million "users" have already left genshin over 3 years
Its probably a good idea for them to diversify their sources of income. Putting all your eggs in one basket and it going to shit would frick them in the long run.
The budget is fraction of what they earn, genshin still on top of the board during dead patch and star rail launch
Star rail made 120 million or something in the first month. far more than genshin.
And genshin is still on number two, that's the game "taking the hit"
Star Rail made more.

Star Rail's honeymoon is over and 1.1 added nothing to retain players
This is what Genshin gets for catering to homos, guarantee they go back to making cute girls en masse
They've already started with all the cute Fontaine girls with hats designs we've been seeing, we're in the middle of the fujo hurricane just wait
that's why they're making lots of games, because they know people left/will leave genshin and want to recapture them
Ufotable anime will bring people back and new players to Genshin. Like how Cyberpunk 2077 was revitalized thanks to Trigger
I guess all of this makes sense, the one game thing still worked for Epic with Fortnite tho, I just hope these new games get the same care and updates as Genshin and don't die a year after releasing
HI3 is still gets constant new content and it's 8 years old

nintendieniggietrannies have been constantly seething about hoyo ever since genshin released and mogged botw (and its mediocre dlc slop)
The day Genshin starts dying is the day people stop making posts saying its dying. It's not going anywhere for another 3 years. Can't wait till it gets the Cyberpunk anime treatment with Ufotable and attracts even more normies to it.
I would fricking love a Genshin killer, it ain't happening within the next 3 years.

Will this be a game like genshin or a auto loser gacha like gay rail
it will be exactly like honkai impact 3rd but with furries
wow, it looks terrible
it will be action with breasts (and furry bara)
I already have a more fun action gacha with less israeliteery than mihoyo's 50/50 character banner mandatory gear/weapon roll bullshit
what game?
Gay ravens
You might be thinking of aether gazer
is it coming to PC, otherwise don't care
it did last month
neat
literally zero marketing, nice job devs

I ain't expecting much, but I'll try it, thanks.
Meant to reply to with

That looks cool but there's no point playing a gacha that isn't Genshin.
Genshin is good because 99% of the game has frick all to do with gacha, but other gachas are nothing but combat so like 80% of the game is gacha related.
Your mileage may vary, I shill it because I find it fun as frick and it feels like a hidden gem, also you have 100% chance on hard pity for the current patches banner character and always enough currency to never have to skip so f2p never gets fricked over like they do in mihoyo games
That really depends on your point of view. I'm tired of Genshin, only the gacha bullshit has kept me checking it out this long. If I want to play an actual video game, there's plenty of stuff to play besides this janky phone port with an in-game casino. If I just want to roll some characters I'd rather play an autobattler on my phone
Let me guess, it's that HI3 clone
Eh, I guess I'll try it when it finally releases. All mihomosexual games I've played were pretty fun
why do genshin players hate star rail so much? literally seething constantly.
yawn based combat is for boomers and chinks who get dizzy from playing actual games
so it's a zoomer thing then
turn based combat is boring NES shit
4 homies in a row, more like 4 homosexuals
you could have just said yes, this is what i meant by "constant seething"
>bad turn based combat is good because it's bad
good argument
I'm just glad it's different than Genshin.
Been playing since Day 1 and it's getting so boring just one shotting everything, Abyss and exploration are still fun but outside of that, I'm drained.
I'd say it's the other way around.
I don't hate star rail, I play it in fact.
I just hate the fanbase that dogged on genshin when it launched
where else are they gonna steal their player from???
nothing is happening in loggin impact until next month anyway
I hope you are ready to hate ZZZ player base(forma genshin and star rail)
But I love furry bara 😉
ZZZ players don't even like the game. Unless Mihoyo seriously fixes it, it will flop.
ZZZ won't have EN dub so even with the furry shit it won't be worse than the other two.
It's the opposite. Star Rail freaks are always seething about Genshin for some reason. I think the rest of the world recognizes SR just has shitty combat so there's no point in playing it.
I play both
they took every QoL suggestion we made and put them into Star Rail instead of genshin
>another Hoyo gacha
>breasts
>buff dudes
>strongmen (forma peluda)
What was going through their minds when they decided to make zenless, genshin and star rail designs are so plain and dogshit in comparision.
Aether Gazer is just the better action game.
They all look same.
Play Blue Archives, tired of chink edgy animu shit
I'm enjoying it along with PGR. Hope it gets a PC client soon.
>gachaBlack person thread
85% of posters who complain about gacha are Black folk who play nintendoshit and such.
I'm just here for the spergouts and shit-flinging
Nice cat
Star Rail proves that Genshin was a fluke and they'll never make a good game again.
nah genshin is a cool zelda game bogged down by it's story and gacha systems
zzz will be a fun hack and slash that doesn't ask you to click through 10 dialog options to complete a quest
i keep forgetting that fox girl with the katana's name but i'll be playing just for her specifically
Enjoy, also quick note the launch chapters are pretty dated but everything starts really picking up after chapter 9 and the story gets incredibly kino
Mihoyo hates dolphins so why would I care?
>dolphins
I can’t speak for their other games, but
>Roll for C2 Raiden, C2 Nahida, and maybe C0 Zhongli
>Trivialize every piece of content in Genshin
It’s reasonable for even F2P players.
What is a lore behind bear dress like a homie
he's black
He's a black bear
I don't know about their games but, their soundtracks is always good
>gacha
Can these devs stop ruining their games by throwing this shit in
>implying they would be good games even without the gacha
Genshin became a chore to me, I quit it for Star Rail and so far I'm having fun.
But yeah it's weird they didn't give this game any content. Confidence that Genshinsloppers would play it anyway, I guess?
1.2 and 1.3 will make or break this game. 1.2 looks promising with new areas and finally some fricking story, but a 1.3 filler patch would be terrible.
it probably will be. every other patch a filler patch. it sucks as a passionate player, but it’s a reminder that the target audience of gachashit are salaryman whales who play on commute. not to imply some of those guys aren’t passionate players.
>Genshin became a chore to me, I quit it for Star Rail and so far I'm having fun.
Then next year you will say
>Star Rail became a chore to me, I quit it for ZZZ and so far I'm having fun.

yeah no
the game will be completely taken over by them
that's yer problem, white boy
All the furries are fricking men though, fricking fujo company press S to spit
The game will cater to coomers and GAR homosexuals. If you want furries try genshit
Girls wearing cosplay ears aren't furries, there's no reason for me to touch genshin

No different than genshin
No different from Starrail
This game will be boring but people will eat it up anyway because we are deprived of decent anime games

Will this game also have that spyware launcher?
that was a meme, no
is the whole game essentially spyware, yes
it's a GAAS, it's a given
Virtual machine it is, then.
It's a gacha game. You couldn't pay me money to play those.
Although I'll fap to the porn that'll come out of it like with genshin
I'll play it if she miraculously isn't getting "nerfed".
>Has to wait for god know how long
The pain bro
Definitely getting censored.
Isn't ZZZ being developed by their Singapore studio or something? There could be different chinese/global versions.
the age rating for ZZZ is higher than genshin, teen 16+ versus 12 all ages, also being made outside of China proper... will it escape censorship, we'll see, also Global get censored because of westoid countries too, you can get it from both sides theses days
They should make censored version exclusively for mutt and chink, they don't deserve nice thing anyway
bruh
yeah
nya~
This and also SEAnigs
if that were true then they’d just go ahead and have already made coomershit for the global audience, they’ll still censor it even with the raised age rating. probably just be a few sex jokes or something
>f*rries
>m*les
>g*cha
>it WILL be censored
no thanks
Im only playing for the sexy male fur daddies
All women will be killed by my hand inshallah
these gachas just have shit stories
you know when you start watching a good anime and get that feeling inside and start really vibing with it and getting intrigued?
none of that shit with gacha, it's slop
they literally just copy other gachas, the story's always the blandest, safest shit you can think of or some pretentious shit like arknights
you come into arknights thinking you'll get some tacticool kino and war shit
instead you're hit with pseudophilosophical, pretentious 100-page filler chinkslop with grade 4-tier musings on obvious shit that can be summarized as "war bad" and characters that don't have actual warrior grit, just cute catgirls going
>uwu... war bad...
and then kal'shit wakes up and gives you a shitty 500-page monologue in the middle of a war after a bunnygirl dies or some shit
worst parts of anime writing combined with chinkslop, holy FRICK man
you launch genshin expecting some epic of gilgamesh shit where you're killing gods and you get absolutely horrible, vile, bland chinkslop of a story, safest, most predictable, most boring, unskippable time-wasting SHIT
the whole game's like a tiny playground for manchildren with the absolute minimum effort put into it when you realize the world is actually 2cm deep, there's nothing to do in this shitty world
so far, blue archive's the only gacha that has a good story, because it doesn't take itself too seriously, knows how to have fun and doesn't waste the reader's time, there's no text filler in the game
>Massive blogpost just to shill Blue Archive
Lmao
It's more that gachas have inconsistent stories
One update you might have some beyond based "what does it mean to be alive?" ghost in the shell kino, then a few patches later It's suddenly about impossible boss monsters coming up out of nowhere and murdering the whole earth's population just because, and then force you through 3 hours of pure bloated chinkslop suffering porn VN for your troubles.
And right after this since it's a live service game they have to come up with asspulls for why actually everyone is fine or just conveniently forget it ever happened so the NEW patch character can be focused on
Haven't played genshin so I can't comment on its story specifically, I just hate the really long VN's that interrupt gameplay while saying nothing
genshin is the worst game i’ve played with this kind of stuff you’re talking about
It's just really annoying because it seems obvious all of these gacha games must have seperate staff assigned to different patches in the pipeline so the stories always feel schizophrenic unless a huge chunk of them all came out in the same timeframe
It's like they all have a whiteboard with the broad story outline but one writer thinks he's writing a thriller, one writer thinks he's writing metal gear solid and the third writer thinks he's writing a ww2 biography
yeah It’s a shame too, because some of the stuff ends up being prettygood or at least enjoyable
HSR so far has significantly better writing than genshin but we’ll see how long that lasts, hopefully a while.
ZZZ seems to have some fairly interesting lore and wordbuilding potential but low expectations are the best idea
either way, none of this shit comes comes anywhere close to shonen manga
Each region's story is extremely self contained to the point that you could more or less reorder their place in the story with minor changes.
The actual story of MC finding their sibling basically never moved an inch, with the only development being their sibling telling them to enjoy Genshin Impact™ and fricking off.
This type of mindset is why the great wall was never finished either.
This shit pisses me off in GBF. MC needs to find his father, 9 years later and no development on that front.
gacha only ends with EOS when the money dries out

New bawds to milk my dick more like
here are a few webms I posted in the wrong thread
Your coombait character already got censored, chink shilloid. Also not her game, she is a SIDE character.
After HSR, I'll just stick with Genshin. It's clear where the passion is within the company.
Looks great!
Picture unrelated.

Cope, LGBTQIA+ troony.
dont they have enough games? surely they cant get morem oney out of the same userbase
you underestimated mentally unstable ugly chink teenage males
>dont they have enough games?
I worry they'll reach a point where they have to maintain too much shit so players will be forced to play 6 different games in order to get a steady stream of updates. ie. genshin gets an update every ~3 weeks, but now since they also have to do star rail, zzz, honkai, etc. patch cycles will be much further apart.
>Bache artist
i will try it, just for that reason
Am I missing out by not playing HSR? I could've started day 1, but didn't
The setting is comfy, very Galaxy 999, but otherwise it's the same Genshin shit, but not as smooth/streamlined cause it's Honkai devs being told to ape Genshin instead of making their own styles
It was a nice change from genshit for a while but once you hit the content wall it's the same shit of waiting months for patches only for a day or less of actual content with daily chores being your 5 minutes of gameplay per day.
So HSR is kind of a mixed bag, it's very interesting how they managed to tie the gacha into innovating the '4 homies in a row' genre where they realized that every character always has a meta best attack and a meta best build - so instead of 6ish characters with 12 useless attacks you have 20ish characters with basic/special/ult
Since you can't have every single character without whaling like a moron the game ends up with you constantly swapping characters in and out, adjusting composition and tactics of the party because there's no right answer that works 100% of the time
The massive flaw of this system is your party members completely shatter all ludonarratove dissonance, most of them canonically should be somewhere else yet they're inexplicably fighting with you when you should canonically be with only 3-4 specific characters relevant to that areas story
As for the story of the game it's definitely targeted at a younger zoomer, female or manchild audience, typical power of friendship etc shonen stuff with tonnes of cosplay and fujobait, nothing groundbreaking, it's still serviceable and fun enough to enjoy though
Personally I haven't loaded it back up since the last patch because I just don't give a shit about autistically grinding materials for my units when it doesn't even matter, and just want more main story and new planets
Looks AI generated
I'm excited for it, it's great they got Waterkuma for the designs. Can see they're already censoring underwear but whatever, whole world is gay now. I think it will be a very laid back game in terms of gameplay but maybe on the heavier side of the grind. I'll probably stay f2p and skip the homos and furries.

I'm so glad Granblue Relink is going to shit on all these mediocre action games using game design from the year 2000
I don't care that much about the Granblue universe besides the character designs but the gameplay looks interesting. Hopefully I'll be able to jump into it without having to read up 2000 pages of lore and worldbuilding. Is it going to be a full priced single-player RPG? Is it going to have gacha mechanics like Genshin?
They say it's a full priced complete game on release with a solo campaign and online co-op missions similar to Monster Hunter. IIRC there's no gacha mechanics
>we'll never get draph-like races in Genshin or its clones
frick, not even Yaia-chan
If it works, don't change it.
>using game design from the year 2000
Dragalia Lost was from 2018, anon.
Is this another one of those build a cookie clicker town x autobattler type games?
It's a shame because the art is gorgeous
gameplay was more like the left picture, a top-down game where you walk around and mostly fight bosses on a circular area, with enemy attack tells from colored arrows/cones like in pic distinguishing iframe-dodgeable attacks from undodgeable ones
Relink looks exactly like it, except with a more dynamic 3D camera work like most action vrawlers out there
Ah I've never been a fan of that kind of gameplay, I'm enjoying action games where you have to read enemy windups and react a lot more than 'WoW run out of the red circle'
Dragalia... lost...
God I miss it.
Unfortunately it will suffer from every other Mihoyo game: held back my mobile devices so it will never reach its true potential.

What was the point of announcing this do early?
to get you to sign up for CBT
Gauging interest and seeing what needs to be changed. Core mechanics cannot be altered, but other things can, off the top of my head, the roguelike aspect could be redone due to complaints that the screen hopping thing was bad for various reasons.
Mihoyo has the luxury of doing this because of the shit ton of money Genshin brought in.
Same thing happened to Star Rail. It’s probably stuck in review hell by the CCP agents. Star Rail had no news for a year too, then suddenly it got approval and we had a final beta test and release date.
Here's some leaked characters from the cbt
But there was some major leaks on twitter for the game about 2 weeks ago.
I'm curious if anyone got them before they were scrubbed clean?
I have other leaks but not from the stuff from 2 weeks ago

it's the artist who drew Bache from Azure Lain
most people interested in ZZZ already know who waterkuma is, I can only see this be a problem if the genshit normalgays find out about it considering how insufferable they are.

If there's one thing I've noticed about water Kuma (other than the megusakis)
Is that he loves vehicles.
Seriously? Another gacha?
What are the chances it has tedious grinding like Genshin's artifacts? Does HSR also have that kind of shit? It's the main reason i dropped Genshin
Yeah they even made it worse in Star Rail, since there's an extra 2-piece set with different bonuses. So instead of needing a 4-piece set and then one free one, you need a 4-piece set and another 2-piece set
Fricking hell, i'll avoid any mihoyo games until they stop with this shit, thanks for the heads up
It will never stop because Mihoyo needs to have a stamina/resin/TP sink people have to grind on otherwise their player retention would go to shit. There would be zero reason to log in beyond doing daily commissions for welfare gacha currency.
Star Rail doesn't even feel like grinding because of autobattle. And that's why zzz may suck a lot because you will probably have to grind even more than in genshin.
>autobattle
why bother even playing?
I just want currency for new characters, other games are for playing a game, gachas are for collecting bullshit
Because grind will make any gameplay tiresome. If you play genshin long enough you would be begging for autobattle.
>Does HSR also have that kind of shit?
Yeah, down to the diluted random main/sub stats with shit like effect resistance and speed. Now there's SIX slots! Enjoy!
Isn't it a rogue-like? That's the genre for grinding my man
So who is the mandatory fujobait in this game?
the butler wolf dude which doubles as a barabait character for maximum pandering efficiency

Wait they also make gacha too, lol/
>mihoyos nikke competitor
they will actually uncensor even more. trust the plan
mihoyo is actually saving the west for us. all the suits are seeing their insane profits and will fire their blue haired devs that love making la creaturas as the mc of their games
You wish, they get infinite ESG money to keep shoving trannies down everyone's throats, their games could sell zero copies and it wouldn't make a difference
>Nikke competitor
In what way?
The blessing nikkes has is that all the girls are for (You) and not Yuri shit or ship shit.
The problem with 95% of these including nikke is that they either aren't videogames or they have the barest justification of a video game slapped on top
Someone showed some nikke gameplay earlier in the thread and it's unsalvageable no matter how much budget they throw on polishing it
I dunno I think it's fine.
It's just an arcade shooter.
How are you gonna sit there and tell me holding your mouse or thumb in one place while your characters rapid fire at a bullet sponge for 5 minutes is fun?
This is like the pure definition of a polished turd, at least in time crisis you were aiming the actual gun and either enemies or you died fast, arcade shooters are supposed to have lots of twitch reflexes involved especially on bosses
??? They were shooting loads of projectiles down in what I posted while also shooting target markers the boss made.
It's hard to actually see the difficulty of the fight because that's what always happens when you post a person clearing content
But yes it's not a twitch shooter (when it comes to bosses) it's more like an mmo where you have to follow the rules of the boss.
There were like 5ish boulders that come in a straight line so fast that if you weren't already aiming at their spawn their hp didn't drop in time, meaning even reflex means nothing there
And being like an mmo boss instead of a light gun game boss is not a good thing
Well he was under power when clearing said content so he had to know the spawns.
The guy in the video had the whole boss memorized
There's so many ways this could be made fun but because it's a gacha which requires powering up units instead of having a variety of strong impactful weapons (yes I can see the girls have different weapons it doesn't change my point) it has to be a dps race against bullet sponges by necessity instead of a high speed light gunner and that's just awful
This is a great example of a game where the business model actually fricked over possibilities for the gameplay, not that the deranged coomers who play it care
True but that just comes with the genre I guess.
Mihoyo and mihoyo-clones proved that you don't have to sacrifice your games core experience for the gacha to work
If I was to design a light gun gacha I would tie abilities to units not raw stats, getting dupes to rank up the unit gives more abilities and make the game heavily focused on elemental resistances/weaknesses
This way you can have strong guns/classes/weapons without needing to sacrifice fast paced gameplay and still needing team compositions to beat resistance combinations or shields
???mihoyo games combat related content sucks though (all I care about)
Exploration feels meaning less in genshin I'm sorry to say it but it's boring as sin as well.
So it hasn't proven anything to me
I played games from clone companies not genshin, what I'm saying is that mihoyo showed people you could make breath of the wild instead of an autobattler, you can control your character, fight enemies with simplified combat and explore a large open world.
For me I play action games like PGR and their gameplay is fun, like platinum games-lite
Just because a game is a gacha doesn't mean it has to suck it just means the designers had no imagination and weren't thinking of how to make the gameplay feel good beyond mmo skinner boxing
heh, in short, at least mihoyo actually care about gameplay
Compared to all the companies doing gacha autobattler trash before them absolutely, otherwise genshin would just be another autobattler with nicer art
Pgr and other games are all Stat checks too?
Even genshins hardest content is a Stat check
PGR is only stat checks for skill-lets in the dated launch content and the very hardest endgame content that has timers, you still have to actually git gud to win
After a certain point you start being placed as trial characters in story chapters and the missions are balanced around them not arbitrary BP numbers so it plays a lot better
3D movement games rely far less in stat checks than ones without.
Most of them have end game content that has timers.
That's an out right lie
Stat checks do not exist in a vaccum, the more skill expression the game allows the more you can play around them.
>has timer
It's a Stat check you Black person shill
Not all stat checks are the same Nikkeshart.
>not all Stat checks are stack checks
Uh huh
>Nikkeshart calling other games statchecks
Absolutely hliarious.
Don't recall denying it's a Stat check like you are with ur favorite game.
If the hardest content has a timer it's a Stat check.
Cope.
>a game with very loose stat requirements and a game where breathing is a statcheck are the exact same
Whatever helps you sleep at night.
All that matters is what you do when you are at end game.
That's what you spend all ur goals reaching to do.
Sorry you had to learn this way.
Nobody cares about how you beat childe for the 300th time.
Abyss is all that matters.
>Abyss is all that matters?
You mean the abyss where people can full clear with only 4*? Or with just the free 4* characters given to anyone? That's not even mentioning sub 2 week account clears. Meanwhile idle trash like Nikke are pure stat/meta check.
Are you trying to imply 4 stars don't have stats?
Show me your all 4 star clear of the current abyss cycle
>Are you trying to imply 4 stars don't have stats?
Genshin's statcheck is so low that every single unit can pass it without paying or dupes/weapons/whatever, which can't be said for 99% of gachas, which makes you seethe because Nikke has almost no skill expression and is extremely 5* meta dependent.
>Show me your all 4 star clear of the current abyss cycle
There are a gorillion 4* only abyss clears on youtube.
Here's what came on top of the search results.
The more you play genshin the more it sucks.
Eventually the only thing you can do in the game that will challenge you is abyss once ever 2 fricking weeks and it's worse because if you actually work on your characters to make them able to beat the abyss you make you overworked experience fricking trivial and boring.
All the boss fights become worthless outside of abyss.
Litterally everything becomes boring.
You get punished for making your account strong
I guess it just depends how fun the fights are, if you can play your whaled out day1 characters in a games story missions yeah its not gonna be fun because there's no challenge, you actually have more fun with these games when you stay as a f2p/dolphin or if the devs realize they should put you on trial characters during story missions so they can properly tune the challenge
That said even if you're beefed up a bit pgr bosses are still fun
You can say that to any other gacha moron, the more you play the stronger you get thats literally the rules of any game
>It's just an arcade shooter.
That's an insult to arcade shooters. We all know noone cares about Nikke's dogshit gameplay, it's all about ass and breasts.
It's actually because the story has no right being as hood as it is
Why are coomergachagays so desperate to deny that their sucess is entirely based on coom?
Huh? Coom is the reason.
But coom alone doesn't hold people and never has.
Post nut clarity has always existed.
>But coom alone doesn't hold people and never has.
Post nut clarity has always existed.
Except it literally does, people can nut then play later to nut again.
>That's an insult to arcade shooters.
it really isn't
Yes it is, arcade shooters have actual mechanics, value gameplay and target hardcore players. It is an insult and you are an moron c**t who probably unironically plays gacha games. Sad.
>Mihoyo churning out tons of stolen assets notJapanese gacha that are still fully censored
Why doesn't Japan just do what Mihoyo is doing but not censored? Is this not a gold mine? Blue Archive is one of the nost popular gacha in Japan because it's uncensored coomerbait but it's only tapping the chibi autobattler market.
BA is made by koreans, published by chinks for the Jp market.
And no, Japs will never make a genchink competitor, it took ~100 mil to make, and Japs are cheap as frick, they'd rather make 100 gacha and have 99 fail rather than make one huge game.
100mil for chink company is 200mil for jap company to do basically the same and 500mil for burger
chink and korean are the 2 countries with highest cost/quality ratio for game development
>we live in a timeline where Chinese is synonymous with high quality
What happened?
>Chinese is synonymous with high quality
never happened
High quality compared to pahjeet coding
someone simply opened their eyes
high quality for the cost
the cost for average code monkey in US is way too high, basically premium at this point
this is why dont ever expect anything resembling Genshin from the west unless the whole market crashes
(You) let women en masse into the industry and dictate what was and wasn't allowed in western video games
The current zeitgeist is all downstream from there

>moronic zoomer doesn't realize that japan went through exactly the same modernization process and accusations as china did in the 80s
>except they aren't a vassal state of the usa so their economy can't be forcibly imploded like what the west did with japan
they will just be strangled with trade wars and blockades, at least you can slowly digest Russia now
blackrock trying to force ugly and lgbt shit as normal happened
Because of your usual corpo shit rules, like presenting your next hit project so you can get funding from old geezers in suits, the only reason mihoyo got away with a 100m budget because they are a privately own company they can use the money they made on whatever the frick they want they gambled the 100m gneshin could have flopped and they would went under. No same company would ever do that especially if its controlled by board members.
>Not a Honkai
You'll get the peasant treatment like GenBlack folk
It will be heavly censored. I can feel it.
>actual chinks here
Fricking kek come on lads overthrow the CCP already so we can have our pantsu back
Any chinks here are Canadians or ethic chinks of SEA nations.
Post the webms
no
I do think it's somewhat concerning that one company is developing/sustaining four gacha simultaneously now.
At some point things become untenable, right? You run your developers too hard, spread teams out too thin or your company becomes too big to be under proper oversight.
I would say mainly the last one
>gacha
No thank you.
NO. Thank, You.
