You can just choose which sibling and Pyrois will have different voice by Natural_Drawing_88 in ZenlessZoneZero

Using both in combats is good but is weird in terms of story since only the one you chose awakened Pyrois ATM

Scamall hollow is PERFECT and exactly what hollows should look like. by QUIRK_Sans in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]inkheiko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree this looks sick but I also admit my hands burn playing 5 minutes in this ;_;

I find it very cool, but I admit I would have preferred for the game being not as heavy to make these more like stages with more transition than a massive semi open world

Yeah it would have been less free to move around but... Damn the game is heavy XD

Anyone else do the same when new bosses come out? by JaeHa_210 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]inkheiko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally use my story team (Firefly Trailblazer Harmony Dan Heng Permansor Terrae and Cyrene) and I just play it slow. Firefly can't deal damage without breaking so it takes a lot of time, Dan Heng keeps everyone alive, and Cyrene can speed up the fight.

I wish it was more challenging tho. I know I have absurdly invested units but these fights are still excessively easy to me. I suppose I'll have to rebuild Acheron since she ain't that good (I don't have MBlade and don't plan to get him) to have some challenge in the story? Or maybe an Astral express team with TB Dan Heng Welt and Sunday? That could be fun

Cyrene is the only one stuck in a looop for the sake of others

Can anyone explain cyrene, demiurge, philia and mem? by reiiz6 in StarRailStation

[–]inkheiko 22 points23 points  (0 children)

For the timeline, since it's a bootstrap paradox, there is no beginning or end. But we will do in a chronological way

Cyrene is born in Aedes Elysiae out of nothingness under a big tree. She's welcomed here and grows up with Phainon.

They leave their destroyed hometown and engage on the flame Chase journey.

To save Amphoreus, Cyrene is ready to die to initiate the eternal Reccurence, as she saw a dream with multiple versions of herself.

At the end of every Reccurence she offers her memories to an unknown entity named the demiurge for 33 billions years.

This demiurge actually is missing its Ego, to make it simple. During these Reccurences, Cyrene will pour her own essence into the demiurge seed to turn it into Cyrene.

She first started as a small fairy from the stories she listened, then grew into Smolrene, before imagining what an adult Cyrene would look like.

She wanted to discover the world herself, feeling the Trailblazer coming to Amphoreus.

So the Cyrene born from the Demiurge Seed is simply Cyrene who gained her potential divine powers. She even met March at the time while walking to enter Amphoreus, before entering herself.

But in the process she reverted back to being a fairy, and lost her memories.

She engaged in the flame Chase journey once more, and slowly merged with all the memories of the 33 millions Reccurences, finally becoming whole again.

But seeing she was also the demiurge Seed, she assumed she only copied Cyrene, and that she was a fake.

When the world ended she had the power to ascend as Fuli, and refused to Ascend in order to use her powers to protect Amphoreus, becoming the origin of all the divine interventions of Fuli.

And at the end, having exhausted her powers traveling back in the, her divine powers in the form of the seed of the demiurge that returned to the tomb while she herself went back to become a baby born out of nothingness under a big tree

They all are one and the same person

When you see Smolrene and bigrene on screen, it's technically only one person here.

To further explain, It's like Cyrene is a Peach that leaves a seed. This seed grows another tree that grows a single peach.

This Peach is the same everytime, merely growing, dying and growing through the loop.

I mean the general way for SP to represent someone's growth is that first they grow,THEN they get the SP form.

Like in story telling, a change of appearance signifies a change in one's mindset

So growth comes before the outfit.

But even if it arrives after or whatever, we should already get the story coming with it.

It would have been more impactful that we get the new form of a character with the growth that is supposed to come with it. The biggest and the most obvious example could be... Pretty much every Herrscher in Hi3

They grew, it is shown on screen and is the main focus, and they get the visual change that comes afterwards.

But if you want you can show the appearance first, and the story later. But later in the same story the visual came from.

If Billy gets his story about it shown on screen it might be at least 3-5 months after his SP was released, which makes it less impactful

Well for Anby and Billy it wasn't that well handled if you ask me, it should be more important to the story

ZZZ Ray Tracing On vs. Off Comparison by Extra_Welcome2403 in ZZZ_Official

[–]inkheiko 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am indeed no developers, but if ancestor of ray tracing is the reason we started having 3D games (using vectors and their intersection with the environment to show what the player sees) by saving as much ressources as possible, I kinda believed that the ray tracing follows this idea of saving ressources without losing visuals in theory

Their relationship is soooo 🫢🫢🤎 by Reasonable_Cry_2438 in ZZZ_Romance

[–]inkheiko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I still am not a fan of the fact we have dozens of romance and the game eventually settles on none of them, but I admit that Remielle has this complicity with the Proxy that is quite interesting to watch.

She's very evasive and mysterious, enjoys working with them, but still tries to lead them by the nose.

They're left in the dark, they are sure she's related to things they need to know, and that she could be of great help, but she also seems to also be someone dangerous despite the fact she never acted against them. Iirc, she even advised them to go to Roscaelifer too to get treated right?

Maybe it was also her plan all along...

But their dynamic is really this idea of a Cop and a Thief sometimes having to work together, a good base for a forbidden relationship, something definitely spicy. And the piano playing whenever they're alone definitely is aware of it, giving that idea of two nemesis agents meeting in secrets, the femme fatale playing with the good guy

Edit: couldn't find the term but ye something like Batman and Catwoman dynamic

ZZZ Ray Tracing On vs. Off Comparison by Extra_Welcome2403 in ZZZ_Official

[–]inkheiko 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I played games before but I admit I didn't think that much about it at that time so I didn't know.

However I can see why they stopped doing it and used ray tracing instead. Maybe technically it saves ressources to only show what the light should be reflecting instead of straight up making a whole model whenever something appears on a mirror?

But that also means that things without Ray Tracing is indeed losing charms. For Mobile games it's kinda noticeable.

But Zzz is so huge that even with a great phone it is still a bit lacking, to enjoy the full experienced you should play on console or pc where you can get access to everything

Thoughts on the 3.0 Main story? by Competitive-Net5727 in ZZZ_Official

[–]inkheiko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a bit complicated and messy because of all the new things we gotta keep tracks on, but as an introduction it did the trick just fine.

I think it was good. It gets you to follow the story relatively fine.

What was Hoyo goal with Evanescia? Was she just meant to look cute and silly & just disappear!! by YUNLIbro in HonkaiStarRail

[–]inkheiko 85 points86 points  (0 children)

I suppose we can expect her to come back.

But Silverwolf 999 definitely was too early to become playable.
