If you arent a gambling risk, Its a really good time.

[@mahkeemdehmah10boo87]

Same case for me as well. Game is oozing with personality from its theme, The maps, the ost to its characters. So i'm really not shttin on any of the ones showed so far but for now no character made me feel like "I want them". I guess it is what it is, Will still try it tho.

[@akialter]

One of the few gacha games where characters are not the reason I'm playing (don't even care about gacha)

[@Vadikus2424]

​@@akialter fuckin same. The aesthetics of this game is just my cup of tea. The title screen doesn't feel like a Hoyo game and I'm so down bad over it

[@mahkeemdehmah10boo87]

​@@akialter im happy for you both for that! I guess it's just a tougher sell for me :/ Even if a game is great, if I didn't find a character I vibe with its a huge deal breaker for me usually.. And ima be honest I never expected to have no fav in a game that fits my own personal taste like a glove in terms of theme. i'm 100% sure they will release a character I like eventually there is just no way, I just hope it won't be too late for me ^^'

[@joshuadunham3018]

@@mahkeemdehmah10boo87 similar. The game is positively overflowing with it's own unique vibe, and all of the character designs are unique and fun, and almost all of them I would rate as at least being cool/likeable -- but also none of the characters have truly gripped me as someone I really want to get and main, either. Some do look more interesting than others for sure, but there haven't been any Arlecchinos (or whoever you like most in other gacha games) that make me want to invest a ton into making them super powerful so that I can play them a lot.

[@kingcopium9143]

Imma be real I'm not really crazy over the characters they shown so far, but still gonna try the game cause i mean... its f2p and their giving a shit ton of pulls too. Also since I'm not crazy for any of them that just means I can save more for future characters if the game got me hooked.

[@killerking2346]

Shark Girl is the only right choice.

[@sippinhotcocoa5934]

From a start of game POV, Ellen is 100% better for f2p over Zhu Yuan. On the other hand, once we get more Ether and Police Force characters Zhu Yuan will get better, so she could age better.

[@howtowithfriends4153]

Your take is both wrong and not wrong Depends on who f2p get on standard banner. Ellen is pretty good and her dmg is veryyyy good but she peaked literally at the start of the game, no more Victoria housekeepers coming (most likely) and ice characters will come but the only person who can be replaced in Ellen premium team is soukaku(not "only" but you get the point) ZhuYuan is the only character of her faction on release and she is one of the only 2 either characters, she will only get better from now while future ice dps can potentially replace Ellen, miyabi is said to be an ice character and attack (idk if true or not) so she can just replace Ellen. + Everyone (except grace ) got buffs in preload so she and Nicole got even better I myself am an f2p(who got Grace today) and going to save for M0W1 ZhuYuan, hopefully I get M6 Nicole too since ZhuYuan M0W1 + M6 Nicole= free 60% crit rate. And that shit is busted

[@l0st1nv0id]

@@howtowithfriends4153As a F2P who got very lucky (Lycaon, Nekomata + Weeping Cradle support weapon) I feel very good about skipping Ellen. Going for Zhu Yuan and her W engine too and currently have M2 Nicole with that 5* W engine. Apparently Zhu Yuan, even with her pretty mid team, compared to Ellen was able to perform similarly to her in terms of damage, so it’s only going to get better in the future. Plus, she’s will be very valuable as an Ether DPS cuz we don’t have those yet. Then planning to pull for Miyabi and I think Lycaon should be good for her

[@palientologist]

We are in the golden age of gacha games, HSR, ZZZ, WuWa. It's kind of odd that Genshin kickstarted the modern big budget gacha age yet has failed to keep up with its predecessors, and barely any big content creators play Genshin.

[@MikeWentOffline]

I can't wait to see what the game has to offer!

[@twalker5801]

I expect to enjoy ZZZ for 2-3 days and then quit. We’ll see.

[@immortalspoiler]

The aesthetics and music are the features of ZZZ that really stood out to me. Already downloaded the game, let's see if it is worth playing.

[@EchotheLombax]

[@SirGriefALot]

Shark girl might be the best from a meta gameplay standard, but I'd rather look at the cat girl for 100 hours if this game turns out to be amazing.

[@larrywoolfolk8224]

I keep trying to do F2P strats, but then i remember that Uncle Sam already got my soul so im gonna spend that sweet tax payers money on gacha games. No but seriously i'm gonna do something similiar, after hyper whaling on HSR i realized with these newer gacha games that spending money has MAJOR diminishing returns because at a certain point it does not matter who you have or don't have because you can just strong arm everything. So just going BP+monthly pass here.

[@sleepyheartss]

I'll admit. Its a bit disappointing having so many cc's going f2p. Its not like I dont disagree with yall motive behind it, but a lot of you are guidemakers and people we look to for help and assessment on characters we cant get. We like seeing you use every character it really makes things easier for us to decide what to do. Instead, so many are going f2p and we have to trust that your word on the character without actually using them is reliable enough to give enough insight on them. Felt weird typing all that out like Im talking about a parent lmfao. Guide us sensei youre our only hope!

[@akvirr7102]

Completely free team available for cop girl is better than completely free team for ellen, cuz it have destruction unit (that's how daze building units class called right?)

[@mrartezi2667]

Imma be honest the whole "optimal f2p investment" thing is so cringe to me especially when applied to new games like TRY TO ENJOY THE GAME FIRST before minmaxxing your investment. Just play/pull for whoever you like. That way you won't burn out in 3weeks like certain someone.

[@pudinkeviar4151]

why are you mentioning wallet in the same sentence with f2p?

[@nolol5445]

theres only so many pulls given, ppl want to know what the best use for them would be

[@VexRep]

Optimal investment is how many people will end up enjoying the game long term. Look at how many people in the HSR community complain about not being able to clear endgame content, partly a result of constantly trying to pull the newest characters instead of investing in specific teams.

[@Kimiruan]

Maybe might not like the game, so F2P comes first

Third hoyo big gacha game and you guys still didnt learn main rule: Chinese name > non chinese name. thats it it always will be in 90% cases. Every character with chinese name will be more successful than any other and more versatile. Every second planet egion\patch will be Chinese planet egion\patch and it will always be some kind of Trade hub\capital\harbor. Nothing new in Ba Sing Se, I mean, in Mihoyo games.

Constantly searching for the best of the best and forgetting the gaming aspect at it core. I don't know anymore, maybe I'm very delusional now aday. 😕. Get burned out, move on, and the cycle repeat.

[@xorphz]

It's just how the conversation regarding these games has become. If you don't get the perfect zero tier units then your account is bricked. They really should just start balancing these games more closely so there aren't units like Yanqing that are considered useless.

[@Ayden-vy5te]

@xorphz My thought is exactly on Yangqing, too. In my opinion, balance with the many options to grow unit gradually is fun. I'm sometimes, is so spoiled with character being OP from the start that it's like an addiction. All characters should have the feels and satisfaction of the progression option without dumping insane amount of cash. Then again, it's a gacha game, and my understanding toward it is that it's a gacha, so I can't expect much... 😑... negative 200iq for saying this...

Actually if you’re running Ellen with lycaeon you don’t want another ice unit like soukaku because of the disorder mechanic where if you combine two anomalies to make a disorder which does a lot more damage. So the premium Ellen team would not be with soukaku, but Ellen, rina, and lycaeon because lycaeon and Ellen are ice and rina is a separate element which causes disorder.

[@Camtaro]

Personally, i really have to disagree with this video between the future characters we know are coming, the buffs Zhu Yuan just got prior to 1.0 (that we're not in CBT3) I think Zhu Yuan is the better future proof character. If your plan is to only play in 1.0 and never touch the game again then sure Ellen is great, but I think for F2P players they need to look at filling holes in their account and picking characters that have the longest term usage. With an A-star ice attacker on the horizon, and Zhu-Yuans entire team and more ether characters coming, I think she is the better option That being said, people should probably just pull on who they like more as both of them can clear everything quite well with the teams that are in 1.0
