You're right about the banners in 5.2/5.3. It was designed to drain us. It's not just double good characters, it's also the chronicled wish too. And by the way in WuWa has no 50/50 on the weapon banner. 80 pulls and it's guaranteed. Hoyo, could (and should) just copy Kuro's homework at this point. Yes, Kuro's 50/50 is at 80 pulls. WuWa still has a 50/50 for characters.

I think WuWa made me realize that exploration can be made easier and should in Genshin. In Natlan it really hit me that exploration was meant to be hard so Hoyo could sell you Mualani, Chasca, Kinich, Xilonen, Citlali, and Mavuika. Now even QOL is locked behind a 5* limited character. PS - I will confirm there are no "good" exploration characters in WuWa. Everyone can fly, swim, sprint up walls, or use the grapple or the shooty thing. Everyone can turn into the Inferno Rider and ride around. All the characters are basically equally good. Fine, Jiyan has some better aerial traversal with his skill but it's only marginally better.

13:30 Gotta correct you here because Wuwahas always been 80 pulls for a guaranted 5 star.

9:01 there's a new character (shorekeeper) and she can turn herself into a butterfly to cross over body of waters^^ not really advantageous to explorations though, since they introduce glide mechanism after her release, and it's even more useful than simply walking on water....

I hate wuwa, its just not personally my kind of game, but god i wish we got as many pulls per update in genshin.

Personally I don't think the exploration problems you mentioned are really problems to begin with. Chest compas for example, at least for me personally is fine. The fact you get them only after a certain time spend in game since you need to grind them is ok imo. If you could have them day 1 then why call it "exploration" at all. Then we would be at Ubisoft level of game design where every little thing is already mapped out and you are just a tourist checking of question marks on a map. Besides that I personally have like 90% exploration after I finish and don't have that many chest left to begin with so imo the fact they don't show you everything at once isn't really that bad since in most cases I wouldn't have many chest left to begin with. As for the movement part of exploration I kinda get you but also don't. First of exploration in the earlier regions weren't designed with characters like Mavuika etc in mind so pretty much for every mountain to climb up to, there is a faster/better way to do it. For example there may be a ladder or tower or something on the back side, or there are portals like with the Abyss Island etc. Yeah there were some parts where you had to climb long walls but that was mostly an early game check if you had enough stamina by leveling up the Statues so it kinda was build in as an incetive to go out there, explore and ther the Occuli. Ease of use in gachas is kinda a double edged blade imo, like I get what you mean, but at the end of the day if you think "oh no im wasting my time doing this menial task, I'd rather be able to skip this" then maybe the game just isn't fun to begin with or just not your type of game. For example I really like that you cant just auto farm in Genshin because if I could I would barely play the game. It happens all the time with other gachas like Honkai Star Rail etc. If I just log on, auto farm for a bit then log off, I will quit the game pretty fast because I actually want to "play" the game, not instantly get every reward and be done with it.

Its always been 80 for banners. Then the weapon banner is guaranteed

WuWa's new zone >>>>>>>>>>> Natlan

I didn't know genshin players had to grind on specific days, that's messed up

I saved. C2r1 citlali....all 4 5050s :/ Getting 3 citlali and 1 5050 on weapon. That is 81k premogems (what f2p get in a year) Thankfully im welkin player. My c6r2 itto 6 out 7...I lost 5050 >:c but luckily he came early. C3r1 neuvillette I lost all his constellations 5050. I swear it is rigged out to get me.

No. pay me for 15 minutes of my time back.

we love a thoughtful conversation on the topic, I almost expect genshin fans to put down WuWa good on you, bro, enjoy whatever game you happen to play

13:16 it's been 80 since launch, plus the probability of getting a 5* is higher (0.80000% iirc)

Got carlotta and her weapon right after getting camellya and her weapon. Hmmm i wonder which game actually gives people a chance

Bro, WuWa pity has always been 80 since day 1.

not really, wuthering waves is one greatly articulated video away from being critized to hell. Genshin has issues, and people are talking about them right now, while wuwa still gets away with its due to being the competitor and trying to point out genshins aswell.

people say wuwa bad but wuwa is the reason we can make comparisons and say "why didnt genshin do this"

Don't know if any comments already mention this, but Wuwa banner has always been 80 guarantee.

Honestly i dont think is worth it to keep supporting genshin .. is sad because i loved it but they are just really predatory and dont care even one bit about their players.. and the weapon banner is simply a scam.. like seriously! Wuthering waves is just doing better in all aspects rn.

I still love the characters but I feel sad that the game is not making any improvement. The dev dont seem to care about this game anymore.

Genshin's main issue: content. It's so poor that Hoyo has to use stupid tricks to consume game time.

Another genshin dead video. Its not that I am against what is said in this video, but there is just nothing new interesting to hear here

I hate how Genshin is capped at 60FPS on PC and the models are just... Eh. Game needs QOL but it will probably eat away at their other games revenue because people can only play so much. Still, this is my secondary game so I don't usually grind a ton on it, at least as of late.

If you don't like the game, just quit the game, you literally have 4 other alternatives which you consider better, so why exactly are you complaining about an outdated game. Just play Wuthering Waves brother.

Skip button ASAP.

Dont tell bro about the garunteed weapon banner 😂

Its fine & normal for a game to decline after many years, coz no game will last forever....2 years from now before Genshin ends & it may fall like how HI3 have fallen after its Part 1 ended.

Wuthering Waves also gives a lot more pulls per update, Rinascita for example gave around 150* f2p pulls, while in Genshin the amount only decreases.

Man, I literally thought Citlali was a 4* character, I had forgotten that 4* characters in Genshin don't have ult cinematic, I thought she was with Mavuika. Damn

I got 99% exploration done in inazuma, done through an interactive map that was always on the 2nd screen. Right now I'm at level 6 from inazuma's reputation because I want the glider for my raiden. It's fucking insane that It takes me this long to unlock something so damn trivial. The treasure compass unlocks at level 9, am I supposed to fucking wait like 15 weeks or something to be able to have the game suggest chests to me? This game is just not even remotely respectful with the players. I really only play this shit because I get jebaited by some characters...

The one thing i started hating the most about Genshin is the freaking exploration. It's an exploration based game, that doesn't like you exploring. Locking fun traversal options behind a limited banner is a nasty move, but making those movement options mediocre is even worse, because yeah, those options in Genshin help a lot, but they're mediocre compared to their counterpart in WuWa or ToF (Sadly we have to compare them, it's inevitable) Exploring is slow compared to ToF and WuWa. It's clunky, it loves to interrupt the pacing a lot of the time, one of too many examples is the stupid loading bar when you want to switch your team because you probably lack a pyro archer for a stupid puzzle that will grant you just 5 primogems. Moders, MODERS got rid of that thing the moment they started working on the game, so yeah, that thing isn't necessary, it's not impossible to remove, Hoyo just doesn't want to do it. Game is filled with a load of little annoying things that clearly can get fixed within days or even hours of work, and they don't feel like doing it. Hoyo refuses to do something to grant a better experience for everyone, the fact that they took literally years to do something as simple as adding new menus as QoL for a few options tells a lot about how lazy they are when it comes to making the game better.

Honkai peak rail and genshit . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Yeah i want smoke

I still do like and play genshin impact, but ive definitely been enjoying gathering wives and punishing gray raven way more. I personally love mavuika, as out of the other archons, she actually does her job, and gets the job done.

You are wrong, wuwa from the beginning has bigger rates (0,8 vs 0,6) , earlier pity (80 vs 90) and guaranteed weapon banners.

ah yes my monthly 'genshin is dying/dead' video has arrived

Things that would have made Genshin better: 1- Skip button(At least for side quests...) 2- Not waiting 800+ days for a rerun character/weapon (PrimordialJadeCutter, Eula, Shenhe, Ganyu, kokomi) 3- Giving 5* to characters that aren't in the main story, weak or random(Sigewine, klee, chiori, emile, mizuki, qiqi) And 4* that should have been a 5* : ⚪The governor of Liyue "Ningguang" ⚪Fatui with a rough past and trained by arlechinno "Lynette" ⚪A general of the Watatsumi Army "Gorou" ⚪One of the 5 heroes of natlan "Ororon" 4- Improving QoL movement in the over world and revisiting extremely powercreped characters 5- Instead of random NPC, make events with characters/friends that we know. 6- Resin storage and unlock material maps domain dates. 7- If they didn't put our feedback into a shredder.

Yes, it is

why would they need to ever fix a game that is just their cash cow? it doesn't even use the honkai brand. genshin is simply not the favorite child :(

Good, I hope it does fall behind, might finally give them enough reason to reinvest into the game

WUWA it’s pure lag, I can play Genshin with no problem, I open WUWA lags, bugs, I can’t play it

Alot of Genshin glaze in the comments, but I agree after playing WW 2.0, Genshin is far behind and i have been playing Genshin since nearly day 1, the future looks bleak with the devs behind Genshin, but better games that are taking Genshins formula and improving upon it are coming. still Genshin is in a sad state right now and only it's blind defenders are there to rush to say its amazing

I still love genshin more than other gachas it’s very good on mobile and the power creep is very healthy compared to other games

I haven't touched Genshin since Wuwa came out lol, enjoying my time with a company that is actually trying to listen to the community.

Its sad that the game will never change. As a player from launch, i say confidently that the newer players defend this billion dollar company from everything. Die hard fans getting duped because they want to be different..

Unfortunately a lot of Genshin players are still happy with this game no matter what even though this game is annoying as fuk to play. Also in CN 2024 revenue report Genshin is still top 1 apparently, it's revenue is about 3 times of Wuwa (Wuwa is 7th), so even though Genshin is falling behind in quality, it's still making tons of money lol. Pretty wild this game still make lots of money despite becoming more and more boring and doesn't listen to the community at all. We'll have to see if anything will change in 2025, hope Wuwa starts popping off.

coming from hardcore ARPG , am OK with the material grind , in fact I kind of find it charming cause it made you plan ahead and also try not to over focus only on 1 character , I do know this POV is not going to go down well with players , but convenience as stated IMHO actually kind of take away the fun , its called exploration and the chest , the materials , the local specialty is the reward for that exploration Actually I think the all just simplified convenience offered by WuWa actually detrimental to the game , yes its much easier and its just asking player not to put into any effort which IMHO actually decrease the fulfillment part , when its not requiring any for real effort then the satisfaction upon able to fulfill something simply is not there I do agree the recent banners being one of the most predatory

not falling behind at all lol

honestly, i do agree with most of your points but i kinda like that the characters have a special movement ability/exploration ability, it makes more value to pulling for certain characters, and it just ends up being something unique instead of generalized. Although imo at the very least, every character should be able to have one exploration ability (which is what i think their direction is now), as even Lanyan and Yumemizuki Mizuki who are not natlan characters can traverse different terrains, and teleport. I do wish this continues to happen, and as we get more characters, the characters are more available to everyone. One more thing, i agree with how you say "Gacha games are predatory in general but they should be able to hide it, so we can have fun without having the idea that it is predatory". They had some choices imo for the 5.3 Banners : 1. Extend the banner duration by 7 days or something 2. Split the 20 pulls into two patches (10 for the first patch and 10 for the second patch) 3. Split Mavuika and Citlali (Unlikely since both of their promotions happen in the first patch) and doing these would make them look less predatory, and more generous while still not losing that much anyway. One thing is that when they fail to "hide" their predatory systems, players are more reluctant to spending, as they feel like they get less benefit from the game itself. So in the end they're just getting double Ls as not only is their game full of controversy, they are regarded as a "bad and stingy company" and they also lose money. Honestly the only problem i have with 5.3, and if they scheduled it better it would have been so much more enjoyable because this patch is actually fire (no pun intended) with the amount of contents released. Finally, i do wish AT THE VERY LEAST, for the First week of a character banner, all of their materials should be available to you, and Newly released weekly bosses should have 3 reward-collection opportunity for the first week, so then we can finally level up our characters because WHAT THE FUCK I PRE-FARMED FOR MAVUIKA AND I GOTTA WAIT 3 WEEKS TO LEVEL UP HER TALENTS TO 5-8-9

Genshin impact have done a lot of bad things but i dont think that putting banner whit powerful characters is bad. I feel like it's a win win for all of us. We got powerful reruns like nouvellette, arlecchino clorende, furina, nahida ecc. And they get our money. I'm sure that's much better than having trash rerun back to back to back.

The only reason why I can't continue to play WuWa is because My PC can't run UE4 yet i need to get some upgrade and imma try WuWa again, the first few patches were rough based on my experience, but from what I am seeing WuWa is doing good right now, and its player base are healthy and thankful to what Kuro is delivering to them. I've been loyal to Mihoyo since their Honkai Impact days back at what 2018? but since 1.0 the Genshin Team just didn't do enough or rather won't do enough for this game, they don't care for its players. Its just sad. The game is good but it's not focusing on things that needs improvement.
