@@darekpower I think what really annoyed a lot of Genshin fans is that the things he said are super generic, when in fact Genshin's pretty unusual in that it's a live service game with no pvp, no resets and at the same time no powercreep. The developers have controversially announced many, many times that there will be no more increases in difficulty because their target audience is casual players - and in fact, the last few patches have been decreasing in difficulty. The main draw of the game is the story, exploration and worldbuilding, not late game combat. There have been many other games (Tower of Fantasy, Blue Protocol, etc.) that tried and failed to ape Genshin's formula, so there are many players that are interested in seeing why Genshin succeeded whereas the other failed.

Honestly the most difficult thing about Genshin reviews is that you have to play for like half a year to get to the best quests and content. Like how at the beginning it's "lighthearted" sure, but later down the line you encounter child sacrifices (a lot of them actually), entire cursed nations and personally massacring a whole nomad village. Probably one of my favorite dark moments is in Sumeru when you find out a guy is purposely guides children into the forest to get kidnapped. And when you go to confront him, you get a choice of letting him go or killing him. Like, not arresting him or anything. Just straight up merking the guy.

The funny part is that the guy ends up dying regardless of your choice. If you chose to kill him he dies by your hand. If you chose to let him go you will later find his "loot" next to a bunch of riftwolfs in old Vanarana

Early on I was just exploring and then found this side quest. I was just doing it for the primos, but then if you pay attention, the hidden story is just depressing. This poor guy is stuck in a childlike state because his mind is blocking out the fact that he saw his parents murdered when he was a child. Every now and then HYV isn’t afraid to just drop you into a very dark moment. No spoilers, but there’s a brief moment in Fontaine’s story that made me audibly say, “Well dang, that’s dark…” If they showed the darker moments and it wasn’t in dialogue, this game could be rated M.

I can tell you right now why, besides anime tiddies. It's a Good anime game which im sure TONS of people want but there pretty much none pre Ganshin. and The characters in the game are really good in terms of VA, recognition, Personality and style, and the Open world RPG aspect allows you to spend time with these characters one on one making players like them a lot more. Not only that but being a very easy PVE only game means they can more or less get away with the Gacha element.

@@diogoc1541 Haven’t played in the Korean dub but the Chinese VA is clearly better to me. The English dubbing isn’t terrible but neither is it good, Paimon’s VA literally makes her character unlikeable through being extremely grating and irritating and some characters have plain bad VA work, especially voiced NPCs. JP is a lot better but Paimon is still annoying, and I self-admittedly have stigma towards it since it feels like every week I see a no-life weeb who complains whenever someone watches English dubbed anime yet plays Genshin Impact with JP dub, since it’s literally the same thing. All in all I just think the Chinese VA is straight up better, the characters are more consistent, Paimon is not irritating (and refers to herself in first person like she is supposed to and should while characters who actually should do that do it eg Klee), and it’s closer to the original interpretation of the character therefore it’s the superior in my eyes. You’re free to disagree, just don’t go shitting on people who watch English dubbed anime while playing Genshin Impact with JP VA because that would make you a massive hypocrite.

As a long time player, I would describe genshin as a fun compilation of mini-games, aceccible in an open world, with a pretty complex story, linking everything together. And the music is awsome.

I haven't played Genshin in awhile. But what I love about it is the amount of time and dedication to the story, world and characters, especially during the (Unfortunately timed and eventually expired) events where you get context for things you wouldn't have gotten anywhere else in the game. And the Gacha system isn't even required or promoted as such. Since the free starters are all great in their own ways and you can get enough Primogems decently to get some. And even duplicates have their place by upgrading the character you already have.

The OST from that game is literally Insane!

Act Man didn´t take any money from the Genshin Impact sponsorship, his request was to be paid in the body pillow of the funny witch lady

Act man gave in to the gacha brainrot gambling

As a longterm player.. Genshin is VERY stingy with its rewards. A funny thing happened on Genshin's first Anniversary, look it up. Diluc falls off hard after early game. Some characters are just useless, while other characters are still the Gods of Teyvat(Xingqiu, Bennett, Godba AKA Xiangling). Elemental reactions become more mainstream as well, where in most cases you legit will almost never see normal and charged attacks in action. Prices for gacha are insane. Upwards of 300-400$ to guarantee a limited-time character, if you're very unlucky. One thing that is decent is the pity system. Hard pity is at 90 for characters, with an addition of a 50/50 of you getting the wrong character. At which point the next time you will be guaranteed the 5* unit you seek. There's also a soft pity that does help a bit as well. Weapon banners used to be complete sinkholes before the Staff of Homa incident.. they still are, but you have a somewhat better chance at getting the weapon you want. Exploration is nice, for a while. Chests give you fuck-all in terms of primogems. Bigger stories hit pretty good, but there's also a lot of dialogue bloat. This game also has a meatshield of fans that will not like if you criticise the game even a little bit. Cultivating quite a bit of toxicity in that regard. In terms of changes, Genshin devs are hilariously slow at changes to the game. Not picking sides here, but comparing Honkai Star Rail to Genshin is night and day in terms of simple quality of life changes alone. And each patch brings changes to existing gamemodes and just wishes from new character releases.

i am a 100% F2P player in genshin and i´ve been playing this game since it came out and never felt the need to buy anything, and people often forget when talking about genshin and why is it so good that the game is really well made is pretty and the music is god-tier, every region has its own ost, it´s great. I like the game and although i said i played since launch this year i got a bit saturated and stopped playing for like 3 months, but then came back to it. the game is good and i enjoy it now you go back to play it actman you are still in the beggining of your adventure.

I can assure you that 3 years in the themes get less lighthearted, some difficult heavy story lines. Puzzles get a bit more annoying than better depending on regions. You really need to play more to get the feel for it for the content they created after they got the budget for it XD

Some things I'd like to add as a player who tried it and not knowing what the hype about. 1: The world is massive. Very impressive that they could do something like this for interplatforms esp mobile 2: the gacha is just PART of the game. There is no pressure for anyone to purchase anything and there are enough rewards to save up for a character you want. 3: emphasizing on no. 2 is that you can go thru content without spending money on the game. All the content, story and events are free for everyone to enjoy. 4: there's way more you can do in game than most people would portray, there's a nice photography mode, card game and you can build your own domain if you're the creative kind, there even cooking and fishing. There's just something for everyone. 5: this is not a waifus simulator. Yes I said it. Some are, but the fact that almost half of the meta units in the game are male then it deserves more than that weird title lol. 6: it's a good game to just pick up and enjoy, its actually a great escape from the super dark and gory type of games we have, and it's good it's NOT trying to be that and be an aesthethic of it's own. I enjoy the game a lot even tho I'm not that into anime, drive a Porsche, have a business and have relationship. 7: The music, online presentations and character demos of this game is nothing short of "chef's kiss" 🤌

as someone who has played Genshin since it's release, I can answer one of the things you don't know yet cause you're still early in. It never shoves paying in your face, there is a difficulty wall to get over but all you need for that is to put in some effort making your characters stronger (I highly suggest looking up builds for your characters if you want to make strengthening them simpler), paying does not help with that (other than buying gems to trade for resin if you're too impatient). Paying any money is just if you want a boost or are impatient to get characters/weapon banners, and also you can buy some outfits. So basically paying is always entirely optional, not paying never stops you from progressing, and they don't shove it in your face. So though the game isn't perfect (I really want them to give us more resin) it is very fun.
