Wuthering Waves |OT| - Devil May Impact

Finally hit the next SOL3 milestone - level 40 (took quite a bit of XP grind, lol). Did the calibration mission and then I leveled up my Camellya to 70 and her skills to lvl 5. In the next few days I'll level up the rest of my main team.

Maxed out the Data Bank as well, although I still need to find a few tier 5 echoes.

Oh and I also finished the Black Shores story a couple of days ago. Really enjoyed the story (great OST as well), and now I'll be patiently waiting for Shorekeeper's banner rerun!

Btw, kudos to Kuro Games for cooking such an S tier design. Like really, she's perfection.

Yep, the OST for Black Shores def gives off heavy Nier Automata vibes. I actually started to chill before logging off at Shorekeeper's new location (where she plays the piano). It's very relaxing, and the scenery is beautiful.


Looks beatiful, is it modded, or does it happen like that in game?

I would like to try it out, but 2 gachas at the same time would be a bit time-consuming.

It's exactly like that, no mods, although I just prefer to let my character sit on the piano instead of sitting next to Shorekeeper. It looks cooler that way.

I would share one of my own video recordings, but the game kept on crashing my shadowplay in the past few days so I couldn't clip anything.

Will try this evening after work and tag you here since I was meaning on recording a clip there anyway.

The game launches on PS5 on Jan 2nd, btw and it will have cross-progression with PC. I'd say def give it a try and see it you like it.

I think I've put in 80-90 hours over the past two weeks and thoroughly enjoyed my time with it, even more than with other gacha games, including ZZZ.

Spyxos Spyxos Finally managed to make ShadowPlay work with WuWa and made this short recording of what I mentioned earlier (the character sitting on top of the piano is Camellya).

The quality isn't that high since I had to crop a bit of the visible HUD. I think in a future patch they'll let us hide/disable it so I'm looking forward to that. Anyway, enjoy!

Is there something that we're supposed to do here with the new mini-event? The daily progress gated one with the girl from Rinascota or whatever that's trying to make 30 billion dollars in sales.

I honestly didn't fully understand the web event.

Did the pulls, share some cards, but there was a sharable step (think it was the one that requires 3 shares) that I didn't get at all how to proceed.

No this is the in-game event I was curious about. The other one you just go to their socials to get pulls, then pull the cards, then when you get 2 or more of the same card, the Share button lights up for that card and you can link it to somewhere. I think if somebody clicks your link, it "gives" it to them, but I haven't clicked any links.

Here's a shared card I have, click it and try to see if you get to keep it.

Shorekeeper in 3...2...1.

Kickass trailer. Not a fan of most charaters, but the trailer is dope.
Supposedly Brandt (the pirate guy) plays with both a sword and a gun, so I'm curious to see how that goes. I'll probably roll for the main girl, Carlotta or whatever, then wait for Beachkeeper (whatever her name is, the one that looks like Italian Shorekeeper). I'm not feeling the short blonde and the purple hair kid. Hopefully they have some surprises down the line. THe sleepy office lady succubus girl will be mine, but I'm pretty sure leaks said she's a 4*, so....

Also some more codes:

They released a echo sampling from the new area too.



Now hear me out on that Jellyfish monster girl @ around 1:30...

Also, really cool how the music changes throughout the video. Fun idea.

Yeah, I was out in town when I saw a YT notification on my phone with the trailer, and then I checked out the other videos afterward.

I’m currently watching the recording of the version 2.0 livestream. There’s some great stuff coming, including the new outfit feature (the new Sanhua outfit we're getting for free is really cool!).

Cheers for the codes, btw!

Edit: Had to double take on the Jellyfish monster girl, lol.

I don't care for either of the costumes, but that's only a testament as to how good the original designs are.

Well, plus mods.

Anyways, looks like Zani is gonna be a shielder character, so don't expect DPS or anything out of her.

I'm ok with it, but I hope her kit is actually useful as a support. Poor Taoqi mostly sucked except for that one week where her self-buff was bugged and accidentally buffed the whole party. Wonder if they're gonna make shields a new weapon class or just give her an existing weapon like gauntlets and make her animations all about the shield regardless.

Not sure what use is a shielder unless its a shield like Zhongli's. Almost all content that provide awards are time based where you have to kill enemies within a certain time to get full points/awards so you are forced to keep dps up all the time.

Not another I've been waiting for a long time character. It's getting old now. Changli, Shorekeeper and Cam already and now another one it seems.

Wait, are you talking about this villainess? I've been looking forward to her being added as a resonator ever since I played the 1.0 story, which wasn't that long ago, lol.

Not sure if its her but in the end of video you hear someone say "I've been waiting for an eternity."

Edit: Also that girl looks awfully lot like Cam in colors, appearance and behavior.

Well, I hope it's her, since I love her character design. If not, at least I hope she has a big part in the upcoming Rinascita story.

And me waiting for Scar:

Yeah, I get you. This game has cool character design for both males and females.

I usually don't go for husbando limited banners in these gachas, but in this one I might since I really like Jiyan, Xiangli Yao and Scar designs.

Still, I'll have to focus on first getting Changli, Shorekeeper, Yinlin (I'll probably skip her current banner since I'm saving pulls for version 2.0), Carlotta and Phrolova if she's added as a resonator in the future.

By the way, here's 10 minutes of Rinascita gameplay via IGN:

Looks like they're doing an exploration quest so there shouldn't be any major spoilers.



Edit: Also, here are the limited banners announced so far for version 2.0 for anyone who didn't watch the livestream:

Final, final edit: It looks like this new immersive mode will allow us to hide almost the entire UI.. I can finally make some dope captures!
