There's a lot to like about _Zenless Zone Zero _ ; as can probably be expected from a HoYoverse title at this point, the game has top-notch visuals, exceptionally stylish presentation, and a level of consistent polish that even some of the industry's biggest games can often fail to achieve. But, even putting aside some of the game's more obvious negatives, like the controversial TV traversal system or the typical HoYoverse gacha grind , there's one core aspect of the game that I think holds back its (admittedly very flashy and stylish) combat.

**It would be a mistake to blame every problem with ZZZ 's combat solely on the game being designed for phones ** , though, especially since other mobile games show that there's at least a little more room for complexity. For example, while Punishing Gray Raven 's Ping (essentially a simple color-matching mini-game in place of a single skill button) system wasn't something I personally enjoyed, it does allow characters to have three special moves in addition to basic attack chains and ultimates, expanding the possible design space for that game's characters.

So, while I think ZZZ's combat is majorly impacted by being available on phones, the game's simplicity is also probably intended to some degree . HoYoverse games serve a wide audience, and as much as I personally like character action games, the genre as a whole is relatively niche. I still think there's a middle ground that the game could've found between the Dante of Devil May Cry 4 and 5 - one of the most complex characters to control in any video game - and ZZZ 's roster, but I recognize that trending more towards simplicity is probably the better bet for widespread success

Being designed for mobile devices is far from being ZZZ 's only problem - the TV segments can overstay their welcome, the game forces long gaps between story events, and gacha as a whole is controversial, to say the least. In my opinion, though, the need to make concessions so that the game is playable on phones has the single biggest impact on the game's core combat, limiting its potential depth. While I've certainly enjoyed my time with **Zenless Zone Zero ** , I can't help but wonder how much better its combat could've been.
