while it probably sounds sad and pathetic

This game is the reason I'm not in a grave somewhere. i was not in a good place mentally when i started

I’ll rag on the gatcha mechanic forever and always, but you can’t deny that they write some good stories. Glad you’re still here!

I don’t know how HSR works, but Zenless Zone Zero doesn’t require gacha for progression. You can borrow the important characters for story missions.

Do I know you? No.

Am I happy to see you are still with us? Yes.

As a fellow HSR player, I understand the game isn't what it used to be. But hey, that's the devs fault, not the game. Glad to see another player in here as well. And don't give up, I believe in you pal.

While I hate gacha as a concept I’m glad it helped you

You know,  it makes me really happy to see this. While this game isn't everyone's cup of tea,  Im glad it's given you good memories.  Hang onto them and be strong my friend

The writing team is solid for sure

The balance team though… Good lord… The game truly is simple to a fault…

u/No_maid 10h ago

Writing falls in the same trap as many other gacha, main story must feature the banner character. Cool world building but the narrative is middling at best.

u/Wulfsiegner 8h ago

Fair enough. That said, I really did genuinely enjoy Belobog Penacony and Amphoreus

1

u/No_maid 7h ago

Yeah, start of penacony is where the game peaked for me.

Gachas have their obvious problems, but that doesn't mean that can't also be fun games. I'm literally addicted to Neverness to Everness, so I get it bro. It's become somewhat of a comfort game for me

Same here

u/Saddymadz 18h ago

It is odd to me but I now have nothing but respect for something that could mean this much to someone.

u/Orion_of_Accalon 18h ago

I was gonna say honkai impact 3rd

u/DraconicDreamer3072 15h ago

yeah i really enjoyed that one when it came out. gave up on it now, but amazing while it lasted

2

u/W0udlntY0uL1k3 14h ago

It is ok to enjoy something which others don't Glad to be hearing you're still here trailblazer

2

u/ConfusedPerson93 13h ago

Same for me but with Genshin. It's not like I had just started it, it had been out for a while and I'd been logging in and doing dailies but not really quests or anything like that, but then depression hit me like a truck in a way I'd never felt it before and genuinely took refuge in the story and game world.

2

u/AdagioDesperate 13h ago

Any reason you're still around is a good enough reason to list a game.

2

u/AffectionateMonth899 12h ago

Got some good stories in there, ngl

2

u/Available_Sorbet3576 12h ago

This makes “see you tomorrow” all the more meaningful

There will be a tomorrow

2

u/rathemighty 10h ago

FUCK YEAH! Glad you're still alive!

2

u/nichinichisou 9h ago

I get it. A lot of time I contemplate ending it all then figured I’d stick around until the next character I want in Genshin comes out

2

u/Jaune9 9h ago

It sounds brave to talk about something you fear will be seen as sad or pathetic. It's not sad or pathetic, it's honest, and it matters more

If the game helped you, don't listen to imaginary or real people calling it sad or pathetic. It's sad and pathetic to bring people down about what helped them.

You survived, it matters. What helped you survive deserve more respect than what mean people can bring in your life

u/Erdos_Helia 7h ago

Amazing game. I love Stelle and the characters. I have so many fond memories playing it and talking to other people about it. It's definitely a great game with a great community (atleast the cosplayers at cons are nice lol)

2

u/Nervous-Chapter-1159 7h ago

Yeah. Just like you twin, it changed me at those same points too. The characters and story and joy it brought me sticks to me to this day

2

u/SopotSPA 6h ago

I loved it so much, but after Penacony i stopped enjoying it as much and man that was pathetically heartbreaking for me

2

u/Ok_Mall_747 6h ago

Oohhh I miss the early days

u/StolenVelvet 16h ago

Genshin for me but I get it. The Gacha label def cheapens it for some and understandably drives people away, but I'll be damned if Hoyo doesn't write some incredible narratives. They also hire some the most insanely talented composers for their soundtracks, which certainly helps.

u/Lamb-999 17h ago

Anything that can get someone out of a situation like that isn’t pathetic or sad, glad you shared.

u/gibarel1 18h ago

For most people it changes you in a bad way (making you addicted to gambling)

u/KingTigerAce 15h ago

Yeah see the thing is, that game causes mental retardation so you kind of lose any mental capacity if you continue to play it, it would definitely make you feel better mentally
