@Mike086th @jumkodo @Henzerik @Naruvt0 @pgbiz literally doesnt change anything since the game and anime take place in the same exact world, only being set 1 year apart and I mean… an anime fits more with an anime-styled game, tho it would’ve been funny seeing Keanu in 2D

@jumkodo @Henzerik @Naruvt0 @pgbiz I'm saying game not anime I know cyberpunk is Big

Wuthering Waves: Every addition requires months or longer to meet our quality standards by @pgbiz - Version 3.0 launched in December, introducing a new story arc set in Lahai-Roi, a underground region with a unique ecosystem - Combined, versions 3.0 and 3.1 added over 10 hours of new main story content - Added 60+ sq km of explorable area across 15 distinct ecological sub-regions - Introduced 30 new monsters and 17 new Echoes - Update cadence follows a "wave-like" pacing of up to 6-week cycles, balancing player exploration time with dev-polish time - Before its May 23, 2024 launch, the game underwent major revisions post-closed beta including cinematic overhauls, quest changes, and a near-complete story rewrite. These changes proved effective almost immediately after release - The game Crossed $100M in mobile revenue in under 2 months It hit $300M within its first year. Reached an estimated $500M in lifetime mobile spending by February 2026 (per AppMagic data) Version Timeline - 2.8 → lasted 5 weeks - 3.0 → launched December 25th - 3.1 → launched February 5th (6 weeks after 3.0) - 3.2 → launched March 19th - The team describes 3.1 as an "all-out effort" narratively. Updates are not timed to marketing windows driven by a consistent, long-term development rhythm. Each addition takes months or longer to meet internal quality standards. The goal is to balance player absorption time with team refinement time so every update feels worthwhile - The motorcycle was introduced in version 3.0 for navigating Lahai-Roi, supporting boosting, drifting, and jumping. Designed with crossover/collaboration potential built in from the start - Sonic the Hedgehog and Persona series (specifically Persona 5 / Joker) crossover sticker designs are already live. 6 crossover motorcycle sticker designs were available for free during version 3.0. Player reception was very positive. Upcoming collaboration confirmed with Cyberpunk: Edgerunners The team intends to keep exploring franchise crossovers going forward - The motorcycle acts as a "cultural bridge" between Wuthering Waves and other franchises. Kuro Games sees crossovers as showcasing the flexibility and openness of the game's world - Recent updates include UI refinements, general polish, and quality-of-life features. Notable addition: Resource Cleanup tool for mobile optimisation Cross-platform consistency in performance and optimisation remains a core ongoing priority for Kuro Games - Most gacha RPGs release one major version per year, with smaller iterative updates following. Typical spending pattern: spike at major update → gradual decline until the next big version - Version 2.0 (January 2025) triggered a sharp rise in player spending but instead of declining, it sustained growth through June 2025. June 2025 became the game's third highest-grossing month on mobile ever. This defies the typical gacha spending curve, showing strong long-tail engagement post-major update - Version 3.0 Launched on December 25th with a new region, story arc, and events. On launch day, Wuthering Waves: Hit top iOS revenue chart rankings across multiple global regions It broke its all-time concurrent player record on Steam The key question is posed: "How does Kuro Games sustain momentum through versions 3.1, 3.2, and beyond, replicating the long-tail success seen after version 2.0?" - Kuro Games rejects the term "comeback"; they view 3.0 as a continuation and surpassing of momentum built during the 2.x era Version 3.1 Content: - Added frostlands, a stark contrast to 3.0's underground Lahai-Roi setting - Motorcycles usable in the new area as well - The story was the primary highlight, with writers, environmental designers, voice actors and the cinematics team all repeatedly polishing every detail - Centred on new Resonator Aemeath, whose secret is crucial to Lahai-Roi's survival and who shares a deep connection with the protagonist - Much of 3.1's story was foreshadowed in 3.0 and even 2.8, creating narrative continuity - February 2026 estimated as Wuthering Waves' second most-lucrative mobile month ever, with an estimated $46.3M generated, second only to June 2024 (the game's first full month). Kuro Games acknowledges a "new revenue peak" brought by 3.1 The current storytelling framework: - Characters convey personality through movement and action, even if cutscenes are skipped - Foreshadowing provides a solid framework for emotional impact - Profound themes embedded in story details for attentive players - Protagonist Rover is designed so every choice evokes genuine emotion. The Goal is to make players reflect on what they would do in Rover's position - Previous complaint: Newcomers couldn't easily catch up on the story, so we added Solution Express Routes mechanic, which lets new players jump directly into story content from version 2.0 and now 3.0 - Feedback gathered via social listening, customer service, in-game surveys, and more. Our Philosophy: "We're writing the game's history with our players." All feedback positive or negative, is valued, but the team won't be "trapped in the past." - Our motto is "Persist in doing what should be done." Simple in concept, demanding in execution Requires staying flexible as player needs and the industry constantly evolve. Growth comes from moving forward with players, not ahead of them #WutheringWaves #WuWa

@kafkhia is it really that good or just compared to shit like 2.5

this quest was so good i forgot they can make those

@Timely_Mya @vdmalerlog she was ready to square up with Chisa too tho

@flowwwstate @vdmalerlog Interaction, not battle, something like with Chisa

Hot takes regarding wuthering waves I'll start: Ciaccona should've been a black shores member instead of Galbrena, she's far more interesting

@Timely_Mya @vdmalerlog do you want her to fucking die

@vdmalerlog Now I need a Camellya-ciaccona interaction

@Manaphy20 @_Floura_ larp larp larp sahur

@_Floura_ Too bad she got completely sidelined and made pretty much useless in most parts before the part 1 of the first season even ended.

Asuna Yuuki. A great embodiment of positive femininity while being highly loyal, capable, compassionate and courageous in her own right.

@A12523685698414 @WuWei113 fun fact the top OF whores were already well off and didnt need to sell themselves yet they still chose to

@WuWei113 I fully disagree. Of course some people will always go for the "easy" money. But if the economy was good for the bottom, you can easily find a job with a good pay. Less women will go for OF. Some people just try to survive. Poverty brings deviancy. It's a society failure.

Much people be happy leonid died. They think he lack honor. But I’m not agree. Why? Only fan be world number one social experiment: If give white liberal woman choice, will she be sIut? Leonid never force any one be hoe. But much woman join and sell pictures of obesity fat for make money. He prove conclusion: White liberal woman just a bunch hoes. And white man just bunch pervert. This man be world number 1 social scientist. His conclusion be use for much social policy for much centurys in future.

@la1zycat @YeShroomguang this is just not true btw

@YeShroomguang She is such a useless girl failure, zzz devs are goated to keep agents strength lore accurate in the meta

Heartbreaking: That Funny Gacha Girl You Like is a Massive Brick

@realsupercobble @AGoatSimulator it didnt make sense at all but they had to do the mandatory CCP season hopefully S3 will be enjoyable

@AGoatSimulator I wholly agree. But it made sense. 2.0 was the chinese part of the game, and let’s be honest: they have always been the weakest in each game too. But after we left Waifei, the story instantly became better. I loved the outing with the AoD. It felt much more like the ZZZ I love.

This point makes me think that people with genuine critiques about the ZZZ design direction need to also criticize Hoyo's problem with using high fantasy as a crutch in their writing. ZZZ went from modern fantasy in 1.x to plots indistinguishable from their other games in 2.x.

@ZalterX_OwO @CEOOfCarlotta popular =/= good

@CEOOfCarlotta Well, can you really blame em? They think Tencent is bad bad, while almost most of their games are actually popular and doing good. They didnt want to admit it. I forgot, but something about Hoyo and CCP? Can anyone explain about this?

Why are these idiots on hoyo twitter always like "TENCENT TENCENT TENCENT"? Kuro games still has full creative control over their games.

@scar4sr I genuinely hope this whole fuckery of the S2 designs was some insane assignment the devs got from the higher ups to try and boost sales and with S3 we’ll go back to goated designs again

Regardless of the time or money you’ve put into this game if you’re still planning to play after seeing this you're endorsing it whether you admit it or not, no amount of money or progress justifies staying, and you can't convince me it's not that serious

@MrLacirus @TacoSauce3rd @AniTVOfficial no its literally a niche as fuck novel outside of China

@TacoSauce3rd @AniTVOfficial The world doesn't revolve around u lmao😂

'Lord of Mysteries' is the Highest Rated Isekai Anime on MyAnimeList

@DOGLESBlAN is this how I find out people genuinely think AKE is similar to genshin what are yall smoking

"Are you ready for your copying Genshin lessons?" Wuthering Waves gulps Tower of Fantasy breathes heavily Arknights Endfield nods nervously Duet Night Abyss sighs Neverness To Everness dry heaves "Yes, Seven Deadly Sins Origin" they say in unison

Losing your daughter.....

@TwinTripping @MrkelsGame cattle

@MrkelsGame Nah. Hard disagree. It’s actually BETTER that they have one foot in open world and the other in linear. It satisfies two different types of people, and adds versatility

The way this guy analyzed Rockstar Mission Design needs to be studied… “open world but linear mission design with no real freedom” I think there’s a point here and hopefully GTAVI brings a lot of changes when it comes to missions… any thoughts? 🤔

@arbitersdiary @Cococrusaderju @NoNamesSong yes, we dont care about your self insert fetish loser

@Cococrusaderju @NoNamesSong Wdym different pov companion quest? So you’re saying to sideline a MC?

Dear KURO Games you gotta Build up the dynamics before giving us moments like these otherwise it's hard to care🙏

@Tyrannicswine97 @Soul1711 even that one isnt that bad, its just that people totally misinterpreted it

@Soul1711 I mean the only bad arc is Fairy Dance

Its so fucking easy to tell when someone hasn't actually watched SAO good god

@KainReave @Zirconium_Pants if this looks good / fun to you then you should seek help

@Zirconium_Pants Meanwhile the "scripted cinematic boss" fight: x.com/Garaa0fTheRage…

I so can’t wait for this game to be completely ignored by The Game Awards so y’all would post a scripted cinematic boss fight while going “THIS LOST TO POKEMON POKOPIA????”

@THEEDITOR_GUY_ fire design for idk… HSR?, completely goes against the theme of ZZZ tho

Idk why they are hating this one?. I think it's good one

@ElsabrosoMisha @ItsYeshalot @LegacyKillaHD lets be real people only like P5 for the music you dont see a single person talking about the story, characters or gameplay 😭

@ItsYeshalot @LegacyKillaHD So persona 5 and yakuza games are slop and cooked now? These people😂😂😂😂😂

I owe you an apology lmao
