Do the devs actually learn from thier mistakes? Jiyan weapon had a mis translation in jp and caused huge drama . And they begged alot and fixed it. But again yinlin weapon have a translation wrong with its passive in english too . But they arent fixing it because there is no drama .

The music in this game is so generic and have no melody' at all , the world isnt designed with care and aesthetic in mind . It just seems like its just a open wolrd for the sake of having a open world . Not like genshin where every area seems its there for a reason and is aesthetically pleasing. I do not enjoy the exploration in this game as i did in genshin. Killing bosses is cool and all and fun i wont disagree. But is that enough? I already killed all of them and now i kill them all with my eyes closed .

I dont think it's worth playing rn . With the amount of bugs , text issues . Camera issues . Over all economy of the game with its resources are all a big mess . In the end its not a pleasant experience like genshin. This game be worth playing in few more patche like 1.5 or 2.0 .

the only game where I can say, in good conscience, to pull on the weapon banner for the weapon you like.

I too went in completely blind with the only thing I knew was verina was good and yinlin adds. But the game has been great all around especially with the movement. People say they like to just walk around open world games for fun but I never got what they meant until this game. Even with all the kinks that still need ironing out especially with some voice directing I think this is a great game worth playing and I’d even spend on it a little. I hope we can see more of Jianxen since she seems cool but only has a brief appearance

One other thing, the performance optimization for WuWa still need some work. I feel like the graphic in Genshin is way better and it runs better than WuWa (both in PC and mobile), so clearly they still need to improve their optimization

Excuse me does this game talk about gods or is there any character define himself as a god , ir is there anything like in genshin the worship state or similar stuff like this? As a Muslim i can not play any game that say that they are gods or say worship state or whatever i leaved genshin because of that and currently im looking for a similar game to genshin but have nothing to do with "gods"cuz its haram 😅

It honestly feels like vast majority of Genshin players played only 1 game in their whole life.

Honeymoon is over, back to genshin and hsr ( and probably zzz ) bois <3

Wuthering Waves actually runs in Unreal Engine which is designed for 3D and higher specs so the Graphics of WuWa provides amazing 3d like environment while Genshin runs in Unity designed strongly for 2D or cartoonish or anime like design environment. Also In terms of color design, WuWa will not add more vibrant colors like in Genshin since it is a Post-Apocalyptic Theme compared to Colorful world like Genshin so there isn't any problem with that. There is also quests to unlock the beauty of the environment especially the dead tree with the monkey that will make it bloom once you finish the quest for it. many areas should be unlocked to show the beauty in it. I'm happy they add such environmental and area changes in their post-apocalyptic theme. I'm excited to 1.1 area upcoming where you can skii in the snow and heal in the hotsprings! soon to come in patch 1.1 june 28 ❤

I like how U display the move like a music ❤💪🏽

Moments of wonder, some locations change its look, weather and music after you finished certain quests, instead of the "wow" moment it's the opposite kind that is "less is more" like Ender Lilies, or in other words you don't get dopamine but you get serotonin. "lack challenge", the game has been catering to casuals a lot that it gives them the means to ease the suffering, you can actually decide your challenges, the game is as hard as you want it to, it's not challenging because you don't want it to be. Combat depth, the basics of combat are attack, defend and counter, choosing what, when, where and how to use those is the "depth of combat", planning and preparing to do 1 thing efficiently is what i would call "depth of logistics". "Execute optimal rotation sequence like rhythm games", sorry ma'am, it's the complete opposite, wuwa combat at its core is the rhythm game, observe boss's pattern and respond accordingly is the very basic mechanic of every rhythm games "watch pattern and touch at the right part", you sound like you've never played an actual rhythm game before. The essence of great combat is like dancing with companion where both move in respond to each others, it's not a combat if both just do whatever they want whenever convenient, it's just massacre. Your other points are valid but they are something can be improved with time, the story was totally cucked by their CN base players whose opinions about story are too vanilla, the initial story in CBT1 was actually better

Thank you so much, I couldn't put my finger on what it was about the beginning of the game dialog that just made me feel like my brain was going to explode. Now I know it was the fact that they spoke at with just raw world and story information rather than letting us experience it. I'd say around act 3 that stopped and you got information about the world history more through the story although there still was quite a bit of info dump. I'm hoping as things move forward this gets a little more evened out.

People don't talk about the elephant in the room: mobile experience of this game was one of the worst in the last years. And it's not better, the game exits and needs reinstalling even now from time to time. It should be only for PC/console. But the devs are greedy and go for mobile for transactions. On the other hand on PC the game is top. Even so it still has camera issues in combat. Echoes system is just a cancer, especially how important it is for your damage in the game.

Genshins worst aspect is the combat (except the reaction system) and some 5 star characters kit design. It is insane how unintuitive dodging feels and some 5 stars are burst DPS which is a nightmare to play in the overworld. I think WuWa really nailed the combat system and makes characters feel rewarding to understand, let's hope they get better voice actors & improve the world design!

WuWa is in a weird spot for me. The combat is fantastic when the game runs properly. The story I thought was awful, the English voice acting was bad and it was made worse by the updates sometimes making lag so bad it was almost unplayable. My final battle was ruined by the performance, it took me 3 days to just get through it from stuttering, so it completely killed any chance of hype or caring about the story. And it's sad because today the game runs smooth for me but the damage is done, I don't care about the story or really know what is going on after fighting with the game just to be able to play. Combat makes me want to play but almost everything else is kind of a fail to me if I'm blunt.

Yea i just don't like the combat, the progression, the characters, the music, the world, the plot, the unprofessionalism of Kuro, the poor optimization. Other than that, this game is amazing 10/10 genshin killer hgenshin could never etc etc (I dropped it almost immedately)

I was ready to love this game. I hadn't followed any of the beta, but had heard the main focus of the combat, being dodging based, so I was hoping it would be an improvement on one of my main issues with genshin. My friends (who mostly are genshin haters) were hyping wuwa to be an incredible gacha combat system, a better open world, with cooler (hotter) characters. I was ready on launch to play but when I finaly first got in (after hours of loading, not a good sign), the game just wasnt preforming. I knew the story wasnt going to be what i cared about, but i was ready for the combat. The problem was the performance. The game runs at what has to be less than 3 fps in combat. I really want to enjoy the combat in this game, but I cant. I want to say the combat is good, better than any action gacha as people are saying, but i cant. Because it doesn't work. You can have the greatest game design ever, but its not good game design if i cant play it. I cant say wuwa has a better combat experience then genshin, because I can't experience it. These are things I never had to deal with in genshin, despite it being, in theory, a worse designed game

Kuro Games have definitely been known for their music in PGR, thanks to Vanguard Sound. It seems as though they didn't transfer that over to WuWa however. They ought to bring some of those talents back in for WuWa too.

Overall a fair review, but the controversies part is really unnecessary for a review video, you can make these into 2 separate videos or something..

Sure, the launch has its fair share of bugs. But compared to a lot of western trash, it's smooth. So I think It's not awful at all.

Thank you for providing a balanced analysis, acknowledging both positives and negative. 😀 Fantastic observation about the pitfalls of easy exploration. I agree the "wow" moments fewer in WW. I think you're spot on since, one is more likely to stop, look around, go WOW and take in the reward of the effort of climbing up a mountain, compared to just "fast tracking" there and fun up the cliff. Like most people, I am drawn to the combat in WW. But that usually isn't enough to keep me there. I very much prefer the atmosphere (visual, music and lore) of Genshin. I don't yet feel connected to the characters. But who knows, given more time, direction, things may change. The real battle now is finding the time for Genshin and WW AND life. Goodbye sleep! 😢

I never add any problem with the game people over react all the time

I started launch say but didn't have a single issue so idk what is going on

I personally love it when they make shielders that offer a bit more than shielding. Yea Zhongli is great if you only want a shield. But he ends up being a dps loss because that's all he provides for the team. Right now I've been using Layla with my C0R1 Clorinde, and been loving it. (Since Layla C4 can boost Normal attacks, which Clorinde wants) My go to has been Kirara for a while just because Quicken comps.

I really don't understand why everyone praises the exploration so much. The world is bigger than Genshin's, more on the scale of Tower of Fantasy, while you move at a Genshin pace. Unlike ToF, it has no vehicle, the grappling hook is awful, and while you can run up walls, it uses stamina to do so unlike in Tower of Fantasy where you can run up walls using an item, and also jump up them normally without stamina usage. And ToF isn't very good, so when one of your best features is a worse version of Tower of Fantasy's, it's really strange to see it get so much praise.

Worth saving?! They're raking in millions. They don't need you to save them. You need them to bring clout to your channel.

For me the combat is just too fast, which is a shame because it could be easily 20-30% slower and it would effect nothing, only make it vastly more enjoyable imo. I hate how quickly you fly though combos and your characters, even claymore users move at mach speed.

I love how easy it is to get into the WuWa and how satisfying it is to master

Awful launch????? Wheree?

I have a lot of the same feelings about the game as you. The combat is so fun, easily the best aspect of the game! The swap-cancel mechanics are my favorite. I just love seeing two of my characters on the field at the same time -- it feels like teamwork! Without reactions however, the element system in Wuthering Waves doesn't seem to have much meaning, but perhaps that will take shape over time. I unfortunately experienced numerous technical issues with the game when it launched, and although it's much better now, it still takes forever to load on my PC. It doesn't really feel great on the phone either, with how technical the combat can be. Another small gripe of mine is that prior to release, when I was trying to find info about the game on UA-cam, it felt like every other video was talking about how "Genshin is trash," "Genshin could never," etc. and as a Genshin player, that really left a bad taste in my mouth. All in all, I am enjoying Wuthering Waves, and I hope it finds its footing after its rocky launch.

As a non player, I am trying to give the game the benefit of the doubt, but the second I looked at Wuthering - and even now - I just thought “Is this a cash grab that is going to backstab itself to death?” Also, personal taste, but the UI design just feels a little off to me. But boy, when I heard the English voice acting for the first time, all my worries for this game got multiplied tenfold. The combat looks like it would be fun for that kind of player though.

After playing wuwa and gooing back to genshin it's like a downgrade it's feels slow.

Nah lol, CBT1 story was way way worse. It was aimless. You're practically plopped into the world then do quests while being introduced to the characters. The hostility in the CBT1 was just one of the things people complained about. Majority of the complaint came from how the story was way too aimless and lacked structure. EN just tunnel visioned on the hostility thing in the story without reading what the majority of those who played CBT1 complained about. The story we got right now, while not the best in the grand scheme of things, is way better than the previous one. It made you wonder why every faction is after you. Then the Huaxu Academy records showed you one of the reasons why, and now especially with what happened in Act 3 and 5.

The gameplay is more fresh albeit pretty much had the same mechanic and interface as its senior (Genshin), there's a couple differences and conveniences but nothing too big. In terms of story, unfortunately it still hasn't hooked me yet, the same goes for the english voice acting decisions. So overall, the only thing this game currently excells at is its gameplay mechanics. In terms of generosity, it's hard to say, this game isn't even 5 months old yet, still very fresh, it still hasn't shown its true color yet, obviously the devs want to compete so they're trying to one upping the senior, but this game is growing its popularity very fast, and they currently surpassing the senior, so we'll see how it can maintain its pace. I personally want both game to succeed, I've already attached to Genshin's "world" and characters, I've been there from day 1, so I won't leave until they finished their story no matter what. And I've already 100% every region WuWa is currently offering except Jinzhou region (which is currently 99%, that pesky 1% supply chest where tf is it). In conclusion, I like both, and this game BETTER worth saving, it BETTER live long, because I've been having fun, otherwise I'll feel stupid for 100%'ing the entire map. 🤣🤣🤣

Dumb question, can this game only be played on the PC currently or can you play it on consoles yet?

Genshin did also have some issues and controversies at launch, mainly the "BotW clone" thing, along with some balance issues (Venti at the time being more OP than any character is today), and most infamously, the wonky unfinished Inazuma archon quest a year-ish later (after a very long content drought). But for WuWa, there's two main differences: the launch problems are more serious ("nerfing" a weapon people already spent money on because of a mistranslation? oh jeez...), and it's trying to compete with a certain immensely popular and extremely similar game which most of its players have already sunk years of time and money into. They really can't afford to scare anyone away. Personally, I don't have the time or energy for another open-world gacha game, but I still hope WuWa survives to give Hoyo some competition, and/or to funnel off some of the people who won't stop complaining about how Genshin's combat is (supposedly) too easy.

You forgot to cover one more mistranslation, the max score in the alloy event is supposed to be 90K but it is written 140K in English. Originally i thought this meant that this game will very P2W , cuz their big reward is behind their biggest score unlike hoyo. While that is still the case, the new highscore at least obtainable. This is still in the game and hasnt been fixed.

Well, my verdict is if they dont fix the combat in 1.1 i am out. I feel like Content Creators have lied to me about the combat in this game. Yes, its much more skill based then genshin and has lot more options, and it is awesome fighting the bosses. But outside of boss fights, it is for me atleast a terrible experience. Auto targeting,/soft lock-on is so awful, that after only 10 minutes of echo farming i feel like had enough. I can't understand with this much praise everywhere for this game, how can such a major aspect of the game be this bad. The story was also kinda bad too, but at least there are signs of improvement.

As a Genshin veteran, I honestly prefer Wuthering Waves overall in almost every aspect. The pros outweighs the cons so far. Not to mention the dev-player communications. I just hope they keep their feet on the ground. And improve the game in all aspects. 7:47 we have a drastically different experience. To me, WuWa's world ironically felt more alive, more immersive, and more awe-inspiring despite it being a post-apocalyptic game. The environmental design and environmental story-telling telling beats Genshin for me. Why? Due to it's dynamic environment and over-world NPC AI. Some world quests involves areas that changes. From the Banyan tree, to the port city, to the Stygian Lacrimosa Quest. Even the eternal concert quest with retroact rain is so engaging and immersive. Even the kundane Tacet Fields show this. When you go near them, the sky changes. And since I've mentioned it, the skybox is absolutely gorgeous. I think WuWa's environmental design isn't meant to be idyllic like in Genshin. It's suppose to instill a balance between awe and dread due to it's genre. To me, the only truly lemorable time I experience this in Genshin is only thrice, on the adeptis abofe in Liyue, on top of dragonspine and in enkanomiya. But here, all the dynaim environment from the quest and even the dynamic skybox gave me that feeling. Overall, I felt like Genshin's environment is full of eye candy. In WuWa, it has more subtance due to it's ruined nature hence every corner tells a story. To the point that you wonder what happened to the empty office buildings or the train wrecked.

Yeah, what is it with these weightless boobs going all over the place? It looks like the physics engine is broken. Maybe I'm out of touch but is this seriously supposed to be appealing? To me it just looks bad and takes away from the otherwise great animations.

I was watching videos comparing both Rovers while I waited for the game to finish installing to decide who to pick and the more I watched, the more obvious the unapologetic sexualisation became apparent. That coupled with techical issues galore made me unistall it in the end. From what I've heard about the game overall, that was a good decision in my case. I'm not a combat-focused player, I care more about the story, exploration and lore and hate grinding so 😂. And again... the jiggle physics. 🤢 "BuT tHaT's GaChA gAmEs/AnImE" Just because it's "normalised" it doesn't mean it's okay but sure. 🤷 I know Genshin is not completely free of it, but at least it's in a quite low level, really. I don't think WuWa will die, it may even be successful later on, but it's no "Genshin killer" and it'll never be. These two games don't even cater to the same audience. 😂 I am, however, interested in Genshin's future since, even thou I don't think WuWa can be considered actual competition for Genshin, I do think its release paired with others to come like Azur Primilia, Project Mugen and so on, mark that actual competition is near. I just hope Genshin handles it well. Only time will tell.

Honestly I love WuWa 😊 Design is great, combat is fun, but I really miss reactions... I have heard that in CB1 there were reactions, and I am sad that they decided not to include them. But still it is really fun, and they might give us reactions in the future 😊 hope dies last 😊

Release had issues but it’s in a good spot now

That first hour was SUCH A SLOG the constant expositing ,the characters throwing all these terms at you, and the janky ass voice acting almost made me delete it but it was actually pretty fun once I got past it

I don’t have time for another gacha game at the moment, but I always enjoy your vidoes 😊 Will be interesting to follow along on your wuwa journey!

Great vid as always. Interesting to see your perspective. I really don't understand the wow thing though. I spent so much of the game doing exactly that. Turning corners and being stunned. The amazing gravity storms that allow crazy landscapes of a world torn apart and the contrast between that and the light in the city. It really speaks to the bastion of hope that jinzhou is. It will only get better as they build on the world and develop it all further. I cannot wait

Thank you for the video, I was looking forward to your perspective and you didn't disappoint 🙂, I, unfortunately, was one of those with major technical issues(playing on a gaming laptop less than 2 years old) and whilst some of them have been fixed the lagging and frame drops are still present, which means I cannot do the combat properly. When I go dodge or parry the game lags or my character will go into this weird running pose. The story really turned me off, I find that kind of story so bad, personal opinion but I hate Mary-Sue story lines. The physics of the game was the final straw for me, I've play JRPG's for nearly 20 years now and have seen all sorted when comes to jiggly physics, and whilst I know WuWu is not a JRPG it is still catering for a certain group of people that only make up a limited amount of the player base. I have unistalled the game, I may come back to in 6 months or so if things get better but right now there are too many issues for me to really enjoy the game. But I hope you continue to have fun with the game and maybe give an update on the game at somepoint to let us know if things get better.

The story is so bad I just can't feel invested in the game at all. Also, it's not really a game I'd want to play on my commute to work either. Those 2 factors lead me to believe this game may fall off in the future as it's not going to capture the casual audience quiet like Genshin Impact did. The combat can be really fun, but sometimes it feels a little janky. I had just played the ZZZ beta and the difference in quality is noticeable.

My issue with the game is that the combat really requires the game to perform well so u can react to the enemies, but the game just does not perform well at all on my iPhone (which can run Genshin just fine). And so the combat and exploration just feel bad. Maybe if they fix it then it would be fun, although even then I’m really sad the music isn’t better
