Should you choose the male or female MC in ZZZ?

Picking between the male and female MC is a tough choice in many gacha games, including ZZZ. The issue is that once you make your pick, you can't ever change it. This is a feature that players have been asking for in games like Honkai, but Mihoyo has yet to implement it.

In Zenless Zone Zero, you'll only have one MC -- Wise or Belle. I've regretted my choice of MC in Genshin, so now I look at every detail to make this very important decision. What are the differences between the two MCs?

For starters, both Wise and Belle are canon in the game. They are siblings, a brother and sister (of different ages), who own Random Play together. This is already quite a change compared to all the other Mihoyo games, where only one of the two MCs has a big effect on the story.

Whichever sibling you choose will be the one you explore the city with. You can't explore with any of the Agents either, as they are reserved only for battle. The other sibling (whichever you didn't choose) will take a role similar to Paimon, an NPC with whom you interact and talk a lot.

On top of that, the MCs won't be battling, which is definitely strange and takes a while to get used to at the start. I tend to keep Stella on my team in HSR, for example. And it's not only because she is powerful but also because I like having the main character fighting in battles. That won't be the case in Zenless Zone Zero.

With no difference in battle styles, different move sets, and ultimates, it effectively comes down to who you want to be running around with, who you want to hear talking more (the MC's dialogue is also voiced, a rare occurrence in a HoYoverse game), and whose personality you like more.

Since I went with Stella in HSR, I'll probably go with Wise this time around, and hopefully, I will not regret it. Think about the looks, voices, and personalities of Belle and Wise, then make the sadly unchangeable choice.
