What are Traits in inZOI?

Traits are the core personality types you assign to your Zoi during character creation. Think of them as the fundamental building blocks of your Zoi's identity. Here's what you need to know:

• Personality Foundation: Traits dictate a Zoi's inherent personality, influencing how they react to situations, their default Values, and the kinds of Urges they experience.
• Gameplay Impact: They affect various gameplay mechanics, including the rate at which Needs like Energy or Social decay, how easily they form certain Relationships, and the Moods they tend to feel.
• One Trait Per Zoi: Each Zoi can only have one Trait assigned.
• Permanent Choice: Once selected during character creation, a Zoi's Trait cannot be changed later in the game. Choose wisely!
• Inspired By: The developers have mentioned the trait system is partly based on personality frameworks like Myers-Briggs (MBTI) and Enneagram types.

Best Traits to Choose in inZOI

While the "best" trait ultimately depends on the story you want to tell and your preferred playstyle, some traits offer distinct advantages:

• Scholar: Great for skill-building, as the Sleep gauge decreases slower, allowing more time for activities. Ideal for Zois focused on knowledge and learning.
• Charmer: Excellent for players focused on romance, as it makes building romantic relationships easier. Be mindful that Sadness lasts longer.
• Volunteer: Perfect for building friendships and playing a Zoi with strong community ties. The slower decrease in the Recognition gauge is also helpful.
• Adventurer: Similar to Scholar, the slower decrease in the Energy gauge provides more time for activities and exploration. Great for Zois seeking excitement.
• Individualist: Ideal for solo playthroughs or Zois who prefer solitude, as the Social gauge decreases slowly. However, forming connections is harder.

Ultimately, the best trait is the one that fits the Zoi character you envision!

How Traits Affect Gameplay

Traits are more than just flavor text; they actively influence your Zoi's life:

• Needs Decay: Certain traits slow down or speed up the decay of Needs like Sleep, Energy, Social, Fun, or Hygiene.
• Mood Tendencies: Traits influence which Moods a Zoi frequently experiences (e.g., Adventurers often feel Excited, Sentinels often feel Worried).
• Emotional Duration: Some traits make certain emotions last longer or shorter than usual (e.g., Charmers feel Sad longer, Scholars feel Amused shorter).
• Social Interactions: Traits impact conversation preferences (enjoying/avoiding conversation, liking business/romantic topics) and the ease of building specific Relationships (Family, Friendship, Romance, Business).
• Urges: The random short-term goals (Urges) a Zoi gets are influenced by their Trait, Values, and Preferences.
• Value Development: Traits influence a Zoi's starting Values.

Can You Change Traits After Creation?

No, you cannot change a Zoi's Trait after you finalize their creation in the Create a Zoi menu. This makes the initial choice very important for your Zoi's long-term personality and gameplay experience. Make sure you're happy with your selection before starting your game!
