A good chunk of my music is done by @tnbee / @tnbee they make awesome covers of hoyoverse music! check them out!
A lot of information in general I learn from theorycrafters and creators such as Zajef77 / @zajef77 , The Genshin Scientist / @thegenshinscientist , Jamie / @jamiekb9v , Jstern25 / @jstern25 , Flip / @fliponyt Thundah / @thundah090 and of course KQM keqingmains.com/ . If I ever directly lift any specific info from any of them specificially I will additionally credit with a shoutout in the video or first part of description. I always do my own extensive testing of course, but often these guys create a baseline that every creator starts at, and most of us wouldn't be able to do what we do to the level we do it without these guys creating a foundation. If you think anyone else should be credited here, let me know and I'd love to add them.

Make guide on it
We were impressed with the game as well! Love the leveling system with the Resonating Hall
Been playing AFK Arena for a few years and their model is a bit different to Genshin. They don't gate getting characters much, but they gate ascension of said characters. You also have to get like 30 copies of the same character, hence why the rates are high.
Interesting. Good to know!
so is the conclusion that it's fair to f2p or not?
@@alexanderericson8628 cannot speak to journey, but arena is reasonably fair. You can get most of the characters you want ascended, though as with Genshin you will need to pick your battles on who to go for (it's hard to be up to date with all characters). Arena is definitely more in your face about monetization, but it's not strictly required.
@@alexanderericson8628 in Arena there was ways to make up for it by borrowing characters from other players, I remember joining a guild with a couple of whale users that had several rare and max ascended heroes so, if i hit a wall i could "cheat" by using one of theirs
Thank you for sharing this.
The game looks great. I knew about it but you recommending it is a valid reason to download it.
Was drawn to this game because of the gorgeous art style, but I've stopped because I've had the complete opposite experience. Like yeah the rates are higher, pity is lower, and there's more free currency/resources to get, which makes it feel that way early on, but you need way more dupes to ascend a character's tier, comps are much more restrictive like you need certain types of heroes to progress more than the first few difficulties for each Dream Realm boss (self-healing, not reliant on skills, etc), and of course there's also the fact that PVP exists and you can see the whales on the leaderboards.
All on top of the monetization being so aggressive, with pop-up time-limited "deals", icons and timers always being highlighted in the UI, two tiers of monthly currency passes and a type of banner that you can't directly/easily buy pulls for with the game earnable currency, paid "growth" packages coming up every time at certain milestones, reward tracks that alternate between free and paid individual tiers which make you feel like you should get "just one more" $1-5 purchase to get to the next "free" rewards, and a VIP/loyalty program that encourages spending more.
I know this is kind of par for the course as someone who has tried and failed to stick with tons of mobile gacha games before Genshin, but man it feels so weird to say that playing this game has made Genshin feel like it has such tame monetization in comparison.
EDIT: Oh I feel like I have to clarify I've been playing it for like 5 days before official release with early access, just in case people think I wouldn't have been able to play enough of the game to have this opinion lol
Oh my I just smashed into that strong paywall encourgament of the game that you mentioned... Uninstall! I did try to leave feedback in the support chat about this on my way out, assuming the devs' chatbot was working and logged my reason for leaving.
(Yes I said encouragement and not force, to appease the white-knights.)
I just hit AFK level 30, or so, then the UI went crazy on me. Here! Check out the arena! Join a guild! ...and that interface with the free "rewards" inter-spaced with payments on the path.
If the UI is going to force me to view what are basically ads for paid power increases in a game that's so much about raw stats, nope!
It's similar to how I think Honkai Impact 3rd went too far with the dark patterns, but I'm barely still on Genshin and HSR because they're at my threshold because they still don't force you to click things on the UI.
@@studiesinflux1304 I've reached afk level 126 just by playing the game but I'll be honest, that's only the beggining, the real paywall will kick in soon. I've played Arena for a couple of years and the real endgame tiers were a pain as f2p, ascending celestials and hypogeans is 100% whale territory (these factions appear later in Journey), I think I've got only one hypo at a decent enough level when I quit. So far, Journey looks more fair and a lot of what they learned with Arena translated to it, the team was reasonably quick to adjust things and add qol, hope they're listening because the game is already more fun than Arena with the world map and improved presentation, combat arenas seem more interesting as well, hope they can keep improving it.
seen this game a few times but was too lazy to look it up, I'm glad you covered it
Oh nice, game was on my radar but didn't get any emails from my initial sign up. Downloading now, thanks!
This game entered my radar just yesterday and thinking about giving it a shot and BOOM, you made a video about it.
This must be an sign from Gacha Gods :)
I am also playing this game now. It's so great.
I discovered the game thru the previous sponsored video and I’m loving it so much
2 days in, about 5 hours total playtime: microtransaction treadmill with minimal/underwhelming gameplay.
I have no idea what my goals are or when the actual gameplay starts, because so far they've introduced more microtransactions than tutorials about the battle system. Character's designs and abilities are cool but you don't get to play *as* them or spend any time getting to know them the way you do in a more RPG-type game. Battles are so hands-off it's hard to say that is the focus of the game, and running around in the overworld looks gorgeous but is pretty limited in terms of actual gameplay. Underneath the amazing art it's an idle clicker game with heavy microtransactions. I'll stick with it for a few days to see if it turns into something with more gameplay and character content than tapping between five different store pages.
Been playing Farlight and Lilith other game Dislyte since it came out and all i can say for sure is that both Dislyte and AFK journey sure knows how to give players a good time and very generous
The gameplay is ok, but it's really reminding me about how gacha systems can destroy world building.
Like in 5:14 of this video, I think of the characters as "she", "this guy", ... etc. I haven't skipped any dialogue yet (at AFK level 27 now and on the early Northville/Southville quest arc), and all the "characters" to me are still a package of stats and animations. I don't know the personality, backstory (whether true or just the story they say to hide what really happened), or any other things that make a character a character to me.
Hey jello are you gonna make a Acheron guide?
I’ve been playing and enjoying well enough but seem to have hit a leveling/ advancement wall at around lvl 50 which is kinda meh.
The arstyle is really gorgeous and so are the character designs! My gacha luck is abysmal even with the good rates lol + I haven't gotten many free pulls yet, I'm not sure if I just haven't gotten far enough or if I'm doing something wrong.
Imagine if hoyoverse was at least half this generous..
Lilith is far worse than Hoyo. AFK requires multiple duplicates of characters. If Genshin were like AFK, the abyss couldn't be cleared with a F2P team, C4 would be necessary for every character, and there would be 2 limited 5 star characters each month, and they're essential for the meta. It's why I quit playing AFK Arena. It was impossible to keep up without paying more than $5/mo
What’s everyone first 5 star? I want to know if the hot, vine-beast summoning girl is a scripted first 10 pull five star since I’ve gotten her early twice…
Yes Cecia is a guaranteed on the first 10pull
Cecia was my first 5 star but she's guaranteed in the 1st 10 pull. After that it is Rowan.
That pretty lady mage with the hat looks scarily similar to Lilith Games' other game's, Dislyte's, Clara...
As a veteran of Dislyte, be warned; lots of us left Dislyte because it felt like Lilith was being dishonest with players. Many creators expressed their discontent, many of those left. The game made promises they went back on. Just keep in mind.
🎉
🥳
there is a competative mode thats just tft this game is very 10/10
I think the game(afk journey) is really good and its much better then afk Arena
Yeah, no. Art style is nice, but otherwise the gameplay and progression is pretty bog standard for this type of game.
Is pretty what?
Bog standard?

Similar to Baldur's gate?
