[@TheSnowconeMachine]

Another thing to comment on: in addition to being fun, the combat gameplay is much easier for new gamers and people with disabilities, as there are much less buttons to press- without comprimizing on how cool it feels. it also gives visual and audio cues for when you should dodge, and incentivizes dodging by giving you special powerful parries. in other games like genshin and wuwa, i have trouble timing my dodges, so it makes it a lot more accessible and easy to play for people who are less experienced or have issues with so many buttons.

[@Glados1080]

I like the combat, there's some settings you can use on mobile which makes it easier for chain attacks and whatnot. I watched another video and someone was complaining about the switch skills. Tbh I think they're cool af

[@Aximanda]

1:38 My favorite detail is the ladder on the backside of the door to random play's staff room that the bangboo opens for you. That dedication to not only style, but making it work in the world is what blows me away. There's not just a dog at the newsstand because people like dogs and that's how far they got with that idea. But they've thought through how you would pay the dog and what the dog would do the whole day. He seems to have the price scanner strapped to his collar, he has a dog toy dangling from the roof and a water dispenser on the side and i wouldn't be surprised if they modeled a little toilet inside the newsstand for him, even if nobody can see it. And there's also a story behind why he's there. It's just the polar opposite of the shallowness that seems to plague media nowadays and if you're an artist (be it illustrator, concept artist, graphic designer, musician, voice actor etc), that can really just bring back a bit of hope for the integrity of the industry that you've lost through the years.

I really appreciate that you mentioned what part of the story people are finding kinda slow or unsatisfactory. Other CC's left it vague and I'm still on the fence about the game so that helps in the decision making.

The slow pace was important to set up the story and the reason factions are implicated imo but i think where people feel it unsatisfactory is because 1.0 is just a setup for the story and the content end when everything is in place to start.

Saw a comment mentioning this game is like street version of HI3, im glad they made this game then. At least it's not just waifu game. The combat so far is fun imo. Since I've been playing a lot of wuwa lately, ZZZ feels more laid back and very homey? Idk how to describe it. It has the vibe like Genshin to me (which is my comfort game) but with some wuwa mechanic. This game also make the characters "thicker" both the women AND MEN. Which isn't something i get on Genshin or wuwa. Can't wait to see how they'll develop this game in the future.

After chapter 3 the TV stuff is so minimal that Lycoan's story doesn't even have TVs although Rina still have TVs they do tell a story with it. The extras you can pick up in the TV (treasures, health, buffs) is in the area itself so you can explore more of the area in between fights though there are less voice lines from the MCs. There is still TV in other contents (exploration and combat) but it is significantly less than the first 2 chapters.

[@mguitar3931]

the game's pumping out new tutorials at lv 30... and after Chapter 3 it finally convienced me to play it long term like HSR. It's a great game with its own unique tastes and it really shines in details hiden intensionally by hoyoverse and I love it.

Lol same. I actually like WuWa (love alto & chalcaro my walmart sephiroth), but paused it indefinitely for ZZZ because while I do like WuWa's combat & traversal, I've always dreaded the time when I'd need to progress the main story or character quest because I really don't vibe with the story telling. With ZZZ, it's instant click for me. I love the story, the music, the comic book aesthetics, the VAs, the MCs, the polished everything, the action animation, and I'm invested in the lore & excited for any new story update. It's def one of my 3 main games now.

I was staying on Wuwa, already unsure if i want to drop it, until i played ZZZ that decided to drop it for good. ZZZ has the style, and flashy (ahhh MGR nostalgia) but easier to execute combat that i like compared to the more technical but bland wuwa fight.

​@@alvinlee7710 interesting, personally I play both still and I find wuwa combat to be more rewarding, and depending on the character flashier although I will say zzz is easier to get into and master.

[@cocoma6871]

I really love the vibe of the game. I can just have the character screen out and listen to the lofi music while I work. I know a lot of ppl don’t like the TV system. It’s a mixed bag for me. I love the idea and performance but I wish they speed up some animation so it won’t feel lagged. But I think once you get to the abyss you won’t be doing this a lot anyway….? Ppl said they don’t get to enjoy combat this way but they can easily customize their own battle arena. And that unlocks super early in game. I used 3 of lv20 characters with a lv 50 boss and spent 30 minutes fighting and practiced a LOT of perfect assist lol

[@yannlee7821]

Of all the takes on ZZZ, I have never heard the game feeling claustrophobic. But I completely agree. I absolutely love the game and I have full confidence you will to as you progress, but the restrictiveness and the lack for teasing of future feature, does bring the game down.

[@darkworld0167]

my personal thoughts on zzz condensed -Game is a lot of fun -Character designs are really good so far -Plenty to do -Story is great and has a very fun way to watch it unfold -TV section is genuinely fun and I hope for more -Bangboos are so gosh darn adorable i love them -My one negative is that you can't halt the main quest. I have had quite a few times where I wanted to do side quests but I couldn't because Main quest wouldn't let me. its like its forced. -Hopes for the future is that we get some longer combat when we do get to combat, not in the "this enemy has 3 billion HP" but more waves of enemies. ideally, as a challenge area, you would start with small combats then the longer you go, the more enemies come in and the bigger they get? -More fun and adorable Bangboo's -A more complete roster *cough cough physical shouldnt be just dps cough cough* lastly -Team builder like in Genshin and Star rail. Somewhat annoying having no party set up or team builder for preset options that are easy to swap -a character viewer like Enka

[@Krezmor]

There's a menu whete you can swap quests. Unless you're in hyperfocus mode which some parts of the main chapter have.

Spot on! The story is really refreshing as it gives you a more nuanced worldbuilding by starting small. But WE know it’s larger than it appears to be especially when we meet one of the bosses in the game. For me, I somewhat agree with the characters usable in the city but I’d integrate it in the Story Modes instead. I actually like the immersive nature of me being Phaethon and having to talk to the Agents in Sixth Street, Lumina Square, etc. Having it differ to Genshin and HSR makes it very distinguishable for me. Anyway, nice review! Do play the game more so that Lycaon will visit you in your pulls 😂

[@marcusaurelius4777]

I had no hype or anything going into this game. I randomly saw a friend discord stream it, and decided to play it, myself. The story and presentation is vastly superior to other Gacha, so if you are looking for that, it has so much character, spirit, charm, and vision for what it wants to accomplish. The characters are full of depth, and the game world, although not open world, is packed to the brim with detail to compensate. The game doesn't feel like a chore, rather, you want to learn more and do more because it's so fun. It's really got a PERSONA vibe to it, where you have the social side to things, and the action/fighting side to things. Both are really fleshed out. The fighting is amazing, it feels like some kind of fighting game, like I am playing Marvel vs. Capcom III or something with the dodges, perfect dodges, assists, counters, parries, combos, ultimates, and you name it. It feels fantastic to master with a depth to learn. They improved a lot. There's a lot of different modes to try and I don't feel "gated" in progression too much. Characters all feel rewarding to play. In short, although it's a Gacha, I feel respected for my time and as a player for now.

Tbh I feel the same way about changing it a bit similar to how genshin is, being free to roam around and stuff

[@pontoancora]

Zzz is a great game, that keep getting better and better as you level up and unlock new stuff. The problem is that the game start a little slow, and having 4 different gameplays (tv, fight, story, city exploring), it can push some people away before they can check the new stuff. Tv isnt nearly as bad as i imagined. Now i kinda like it, they add something fresh to the game, not only hack and slash. But of course, if puzzles arent your thing, you wont like it so much. Cuty exploration is a little clunky to get it, but after a while, everything becomes easy to understand. The reason is that they made new design choices for something we are so used with genshin and star rail being very close, that we need time to figure it out the links, menus and places. A big overworld map with all locations and the hollows in it would be great to immersion. Story is great. Sure, unlike genshin that makes you to jump in right on the first 5 minutes on the journey, zzz is more episodic and have way more focus on the characters. You will love the sibiling way before know what is their main purpose. Same with the combat characters. Thats great and a breath of freshnair when compared to the usual "chosen one to save the whole world" games we had before. The game has an overarch story but is not the most relevant at least until now. Combat is a slow burn. The enemies are too weak innthe beginning, even on challenge mode, so we dont really feel the need to understand the stuff behind it. But after they unlock the endgame, the combat become awesome. The parry need to be fast, the animations are great, the rush of adrenaline fighting a boss, and the perfect sound effects, is just what i needed. The fact the game has NO HEALERS makes every hit count a lot. Im still need to try more chars, but im lovin Corin saw attacks. The sound, the animation and the vibrating reception on my controller, gives me a perfect experience. Overall it wont be a game for everyone, and with the recent drama seeking meta for ccs, it was expected to people to be very aggressive against the game. But the reception outside of social media, and the initial revenue shows that this whole thing is just overreacting.

You can go on dates with your pulled husbandos and waifus at around lvl 35, after chapter 2.5 intermission. You get to know them more as a character, what they hate/like. Your answers to their questions can decrease, increase, or increase their trust greatly. Getting to know them feels organic, like getting to know a stranger instead of “Hey, you got lucky and got me, let’s roam the world now”.

You’re probably not going to see this, but if you do, I highly recommend playing astral chain.

Also the hub music slaps. Okay, that’s all, thank you. Love your vids!!❤

Can someone agree that the coffee system is kinda stupid? You can only buy it once a day and it gives you extra energy/resin to spend on (which is a really good feature that Genshin and Star Rail need to implement, btw), but if you buy the ones with effects (bonuses if you're farming a certain component for a character, it'll give bonus drops), the effect only lasts for 1 battle. I do think it's a good feature, but weirdly implemented.

“did u call me?meow~” "nope" 😂

[@OokamiSho]

Oohh..when you talk about it i suddenly remember Persona 2 remake Thats why this game system feel so familiar for me

[@AylethsBlade]

I think it was mina that called out hoyo for just wanting to make an anime - and like zzz makes me wish they'd do a slice of life thing to just watch and I love that zzz has a video archive to review the cut scenes so I can rewatch the fun plot points lol I wish their other games has that sort of CG review

[@zachredd845]

Hope to see you make a video about Shiyu Defense (Spiral Abyss for ZZZ)

[@moonlover2310]

I love this game man , Billy kid is my favorite along with the two siblings

[@Billy_Bat1993]

ZZZ is my favorite Myhoyo game. More grounded and casual story and likeable characters is more refreshing for me than another story about god-being hero, who need save the world. ZZZ is more like Durarara and Persona vibes, when we more focus on casual things and grounded things. And i really like it

[@swiftbane2194]

My guy I agree with your takes also the first moment I got to the city walk around I got persona 5 royal vibes very much persona coded

[@annoyedtorchic8270]

this actually took me out a bit off of genshin. maybe because i have already 100% the maps and i have well built characters just waiting for the next patch. But ZZZ took me in, as a working class, like genshin, the casualness of this game is something I can squeeze in with my schedule without demanding too much

[@h.o.p.e1415]

I got a complaint about the game, that bangboo on the street with a hand sign, we need to able to interact with it and SLAP !

[@artifact2835]

I had no expectations for my first 5 Star, frankly didn’t care. But I got Lycaon and gotta say, he’s pretty good when combined with Corrin

[@YourRyeBread]

I really really hope they keep the tvs and just move it or something cuz I really really prefer the tv system and do not find the outpost stuff as fun. I think its because it feels relaxing for me versus having to be so intensely engaged the entire time when in like open world or on a map. I’m disabled so I’m biased in this way

[@ryan11obolsquad]

the story is fr good, peak worldbuilding

[@Archetype_Angel]

Did you know you can manually change the channel on the TV at the login screen? Just press/tap the TV's buttons / knobs

[@crimsonshadow1477]

A little qol thing zzz has that I fucken love and appreciate is the skip button, me and my partner usually play similar games, so I'd already seen most of the early game already, and being able to press skip and quickly catch up was so very nice

[@zentorn7939]

EU AMEI! Não consigo jogar ZZZ porque meu PC não roda, e espero que eles consigam consertar esses problemas, mas se não conseguirem, eu entendo. Mas EU AMEI! Vi muita gente jogando, e eu adorei! E não senti falta da Ellen porque pedi para um amigo pegá-la para mim uns 30 minutos antes desse comentário, hahaha Mas eu amei tudo sobre ZZZ

[@savidalu193]

I feel like the fact that you don’t move around with the characters is made up for with the trust system and being able to walk around and actually see the characters. I wish Genshin had that, even just for the character’s birthdays.

[@aetonazniel70]

for a non open world game, i prefered solo leveling better. But in general i tend to lean towards open world games

[@jeremyblevins9397]

If you let the switch timer run out it will leave you as the character instead of forcing a swap

[@noahjump2000]

I tried it. Was in a bad mood and didn't get Soldier 11 that i wanted from some starter pulls so i deleted it. I intend to come back to it someday. Right now sticking with Genshin.

[@jjwang_safari0813]

Damn I want Nekomata so much... I mean I got Alexandrina and I love her but Nekomata was my No.1 so far :( Also I agree with a lot of the points you made! The story in ZZZ is not like a saga or an adventure story that often has a simple yet powerful start in the very beginning. To me it's more like a typical urban fantasy anime/TV show which often takes a few episodes/chapters to get to the real plot. Personally I really love the story because it's really fun and whacky, and the voice acting is amazing in all languages. However, I don't like the way that the ZZZ is level-gating so many game functions or contents and the only way to unlock them is to rush through the stories and the quests. I've been playing this game almost everyday since release and I just reached lvl 29 yesterday - not even enough to unlock the latest event. I truly hope they could lower the level requirements in later patches.
