Tectone explains why Zenless Zone Zero is more than just a Genshin Impact clone HoYoverseA popular Genshin Impact streamer has given his first impressions on Zenless Zone Zero, an upcoming anime action game that is vying for players\u2019 attention. Zenless Zone Zero is the latest game from the developers behind the ever-popular open-world title, Genshin Impact. While HoYoverse\u2019s new title has yet to be released, that hasn\u2019t stopped a number of lucky players from playing Zenless Zone Zero early. In fact, the beta has given us an early glimpse of the team-based combat, colorful characters, and story elements. Despite only being in the early stages of release, Tectone has given his thoughts on Zenless Zone Zero, revealing why he is hyped for the game\u2019s official launch. Zenless Zone Zero first impressions \u201cThis game does a lot of good,\u201d said Tectone. \u201cThe combat is really nutty\u2026and the characters all feel sufficiently different. This game does have mirrors to Genshin Impact, but it\u2019s also a completely different game. I would say calling this game a Genshin clone is an idiotic statement \u2013 this is just a completely standalone game.\u201d The streamer notes that Zenless Zone Zero has a number of similarities to Punishing Gray Raven and Honkai Impact. An area that is especially true when looking at the flashy combat animations and combos \u2013 something that Tectone was keen to highlight. \u201cCombat is a definite 10 out of 10 for me,\u201d explained Tectone. \u201cIt\u2019s as smooth as f*cking butter and the mobs actually do damage, which is something I was not expecting. If you get hit, you get really f*cked up.\u201d The streamer also praised how Zenless Zone Zero rewards players that master the game\u2019s dodge system, which enables players to become invulnerable and raises their damage. \u201cIt\u2019s defensive and offensive so it makes dodging feel very rewarding,\u201d said the streamer. Timestamp 0:18 Unlike Genshin Impact, Zenless Zone Zero doesn\u2019t feature a stamina system, which means players can freely dodge whenever they like. Despite this, Tectone notes that even when spamming dodges, he was still taking damage. \u201cSo far, I haven\u2019t been able to avoid all damage via spamming [dodge] and if you do just spam, you\u2019re not able to deal damage,\u201d he added. This will likely come as a relief to those that want a decent challenge and not just breeze through the game\u2019s content. However, Zenless Zone Zero isn\u2019t without its faults. \u201cThe town (hub) feels a little bit drab, I really feel like they could have spiced things up by adding in a couple of different colors, especially during nighttime,\u201d explained Tectone. \u201cThe biggest downside so far is the story. The story is all over the f*cking place. There\u2019s so much sh*t going on that it feels very convoluted right now, but maybe that will clear up as we go.\u201d It\u2019s important to note that Zenless Zone Zero has yet to be officially released, so a lot could change before launch. While it\u2019s still early days, Tectone seems very hopeful that HoYoverse\u2019s upcoming title could prove to be a decent option for Travelers that have grown bored of Genshin Impact.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
