I’m really not sure where to begin with this one, so I’m just going to lay it out and then try to explain later: A recent update to Zenless Zone Zero made it impossible to get a good look at character’s asses, and the blowback was so fierce developer MiHoYo reverted the change less than a day later.

    All the combat cut scenes. I don’t want to watch the same attack with a different enemy ten times everytime I play. Shit is boring and a waste of my battery, attention and most of all time.

    If you enjoy it good for you. But slop like this is what made reactions like the article talks about.

      TBH, I agree with you. I like Genshin but can’t really get into ZZZ.

      Part of it is that I dislike the “hollow” framing device-- it smells like the crummy isekai-to-a-MMORPG trope, and abandons the idea of “vast world to explore”, but it also feels like the combat isn’t as rich in general. The characters have different movesets but it doesn’t feel like it makes much difference in gameplay

      Do you mean the ultimate ability animations? They’re like 2 seconds long and only happen a few times per fight

        Yeah probably. I didn’t want to play the same 2 second video twice every flight that’s boring af
