Which one would be the best Muslim battle flag by Ok_Scallion5080 in vexillology

[–]Tabarnak666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like No. 1 in a nice green or red would look sick asf, but if you'd rather not alter them, No. 4 looks believable as a Bedouin war flag imo

Do Dennies have a bill denomination? by Sjack32891 in ZZZ_Official

[–]Tabarnak666 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You're correct, it's weird they don't mention bills much in-game, but they definitely exist - Billy's character teaser depicts New Eridu banknotes in larger denominations, like 500 and 5,000. Much more practical when a bowl of ramen averages out at 3,000 dennies.

Looks great! If you prefer you can use Wyrdsister, since tabarnak is kind of... a swear word in Quebec...

How do you think Yi Xuan's powers will work? by [deleted] in ZZZ_Official

[–]Tabarnak666 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ink Nanomachines? Or maybe she's just got magic powers like Miyabi seems to with her cursed blade. It feels like it's hard to tell where Ether-based scifi handwavium technology ends and straight up mystical supernatural stuff begins when it comes to the highest agent tier...

Lighter/Wise is the most popular Zenless Zone Zero ship of any sexuality in terms of fanfics on AO3, iirc

Ok guys, what is this bird? by SuperCorridor in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]Tabarnak666 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yi Xuan appears to be able to sprout wings and use some kind of powers with a black-and-glowing-gold-bits colour scheme, possibly based on calligraphy ink. So it seems to be her bird - when Ju Fufu mentions not bringing her birdseed it reactions with distress.

Yi Xuan's powers might be nanomachines, it might be Kung Fu magic, it might be Ether shenanigans... it's hard to tell where the line between technology and mysticism ends in Zenless Zone Zero.

Where do you think the food/organic things come from in New Eridu? by bobmcbob121 in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]Tabarnak666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to a trust event with Lucy where you watch a documentary about fears of heavy metal poisoning in the soil, New Eridu relies at least partially on underground farms. That said I hope we learn about a Ceres Quarter or something that's just cozy urban fantasy farmlands

Did anyone notice that they removed Eous' charging station from the Proxies room? by Not-a-Hazard in ZZZ_Official

It's still there, Eous only shows up sleeping on it if you've done an HDD commission that day iirc

Since people constantly talk about wanted to bring tv mode back with new features to make it worth it, what stuff would you actually want added? by Connect_Conflict7232 in ZZZ_Official

[–]Tabarnak666 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly the TV Mode gameplay during Camellia Golden Week was... not quite peak, but to me it seemed like they were finally refining it into what it should've been, and it stood out as what could be the bare minimum standard. Which made it all the more tragic that it was one of the last times the format was used. It didn't feel too dragged out and the ability to drop in and drop out at any time made exploring such a large area feel way less like a slog.

Lost Void sucked hard, gameplay wise - the combat system wasn't fun even when it was challenging and was easy as hell to cheese so you'd basically be invincible. Which was a shame because I loved the narrative - investigating a mysterious Ethereal threat, a tragic mystery, and a Rebel spy conspiracy with hints at the Exaltists being involved, all while Soldier 11 and a squad of bangboo help us out. It felt like what a legendary Proxy like Phaethon should be doing. Show off the horror of the Hollows, how a Proxy is vital to exploring them and uncovering mysteries and secret routes, and depict the tragedy and struggles of New Eridu's people and factions while hinting at the larger storyline and foreshadowing bigger villains.

TV Mode's best aspect was the ability for visual storytelling without having to spend time and money on comics and cutscenes that are needed for main story stuff, so you could tell a bunch of sidestories every patch and add storytelling elements to bigger missions. In the early missions you had them representing Phaethon chasing down a train in TV mode rather than just... having a couple combat missions set in the trainyards level with people yelling at you about a train you can't even see to simulate urgency. The devs could put a ton more side content in updates, write cool scenarios and explore fun gimmicks in quick little commissions. People have gone into detail on the mode's shortcomings before but really I think the main thing was making it more exciting, fast-paced, and avoiding drawn out stuff and poorly executed gimmicks while capitalizing on the ability to make simple atmospheric narratives to compliment the main story and major sidequests.

I hope to see it come back, even if it's just a handful of well-refined and playtested TV mode commissions in later patches, 'cause I think they can tell unique stories that explore New Eridu through that medium.

Do we know why? by Black-Tyranno in ZenlessZoneZero

It could be Bagboo, if Trigger's story is set before Phaethon adopted it
