I couldn’t get into Genshin, and I haven’t touched any other Hoyo games. ZZZ has consumed my SOUL in every way. I freaking love this game. I’ve already spent an obscene amount of money I didn’t know I had, and had to clamp down and better plan my spending now. We are in the recovery stage. (I have not spent above my means but I was surprised how close I got. ) No one will claim it, but deep DEEP down this game is what I would picture as a “AAAA” game. Just saying. Its depth, style, music, gameplay, and reward system designed to still be more than operable on a free to play model. Also they made a fuck load of money in its first month. Like 360ish million? Wow. Like WOW
This might help in the long run, just to visualize. After the 2x bonuses are gone, here's the amount of Signal Searches you can get per Monochrome bundle: 0.375 2.0625 6.8125 14 24.25 50.5 You need 180 to guarantee an S rank, 90 if you lost your last 50/50. Losing the 50/50 carries over to the next banner, so weigh that option carefully. Each Signal Search costs 160 polychromes and monochromes have a 1:1 conversion rate. Depending on how much you intend to spend: (180-amount you plan to buy) x 160 = Polychromes + Monochromes (left over) you need to save in addition to your planned Monochrome purchases. Obviously include the amount of tapes you already have from events etc when calculating this.
This is the only gatcha game I've liked cause no open world and fun combat and story. Although the combat got better once difficulty ramped up and specially now that no time limit shiyu defense bosses appeared. I like not being bound by how fast I am but how good I can dodge.
combat in zzz is super flashy and fun, albeit simple. Although its much more complex once you start to look under the hood. Quite a few complicated systems at work. Also, anby is great, shes the main reason im not pulling for the new stunner. i dont have room in my life for any other stunner.
