- Well, finally, HSR devs listened, and they are adding many features, including boosts to old character performance and much more. Let's break it down!
First, let’s talk about the story because, wow, Amphoreus did not hold back. Right from the start, players were hit with a massive info dump and it was a lot of yapping. And while the lore is interesting, not everyone wants to sit through long, text-heavy dialogues just to progress the main story. To fix this, the devs are cutting down on unnecessary explanations and giving players the option to skip certain lore-heavy sections. So, if you're the kind of person who loves deep world-building, you can still explore it all by talking to NPCs. But if you’d rather just move forward, you’ll now have that choice.
Remember Oronyx's Trial? It was one of the biggest offenders when it came to unnecessary complexity in the Abyss of Fate. Previously, you had to go through a complex process. But after this update, those steps will be optional, making the whole sequence feel way smoother and less of a chore.
Let’s be real-some of these puzzles were doing the most. The main story’s unique stage gameplay was meant to immerse us in Amphoreus’ lore, but instead, it felt like we needed a Ph.D. in astrophysics just to finish them. But, good news is that,
Take the Bloodbathed Battlefront in Castrum Kremnos, for example. Before, you had to restore four Soul-Forging Statues just to piece together Nikador's divinity-like we’re out here solving ancient mysteries instead of playing a game. After the update, you can just have a quick chat with *Gnaeus* and complete the objective much more quickly. Sounds good, right?
And before the final battle, remember those long, drawn-out puzzles that blocked your progress? They’re getting streamlined as well. Now, in some of these puzzle-solving areas, you’ll have the option to simply talk to Gnaeus and jump straight into combat instead of being forced to solve every single puzzle. If you enjoy puzzles, they’re still there for you. But if you’d rather just fight and move forward, you won’t be stuck solving things you don’t want to.
Another big issue players faced was the overcrowding of enemies in certain areas. It felt like every few steps, you’d get ambushed, making it hard to focus on exploration and puzzle-solving. To fix this, enemy placements will be spread out better, which will reduce the number of times you get interrupted. This should make navigating the main story areas feel a lot smoother, right?
These changes will be implemented starting in Version 3.2, but that’s not all the devs have planned. Because they’re also working on adding more engaging combat mechanics and challenge goals to keep battles fresh. And for those of you who feel like older characters are starting to fall behind because of powercreep, there’s good news, hoyo will introduce character buffs soon! The team is actively looking at ways to strengthen older characters so they can keep up with newer units, making them more viable in battle again. Well, i can’t wait to test my blade on the battlefield again, because this poor guy is benched since start? i think this is the most requested thing in honkai star rail, right? what do you all think about this?
It’s clear that the developers are listening, and these changes are just the beginning. They’ve emphasized that Amphoreus is meant to be a long-term journey, so expect even more adjustments in future updates. But for now, these fixes should go a long way in making the game feel less overwhelming and much more enjoyable.
So, what do you think about these updates? Do you like the idea of skipping certain puzzles and lore sections? Or are you someone who enjoys all the extra details? Let’s talk about it in the comments!
That’s it for this Developer Radio update. Stay safe, i’ll Catch you in the next one!

Honestly, the skipping stuff isn't that important to me.
I liked the puzzles and the story pretty much, felt long, yes, but I still enjoyed my time.
What I really am excited for is the buffing of old characters.
Some of my characters have been benched for ages and would live to face action again.
Yapping is only boring when you try to finish everything in one go
Yapping is only when you don't understand
It won't change the fact that it was a shit story
@@silverX3870shit story?
Play wuwa before 2.0
Play genshin before sumeru
Hsr is not peak story but not shit
@@master-d2776 the problem isn’t that the story is bad, the problem is that the story was unnecessarily long/stretched out. i thought that the story was fine, but there was no need for it to have been 10 hrs long. they could have easily cut out over 2 hrs
@@breakingskywait till you found out about rpg like FGO and arknights their word count is higher than the whole bible 😂😂
It wouldve been nice to get this Qol before i completed the story 😢
It's okay,
@fieryflyy 🙁😭😭
@fieryflyy the hours I spent to complete those puzzles 🥲
Same goes for me too 😢
@shameelnihal wait are those Puzzles already gone?
PLEASE BUFF BLADE INTO ASCENSION I WANT HIM TO BE GOOD WITH LOW INVESTMENT (E0S0) BADLYYY
I’m only excited for old characters to get buff and to make doing puzzles easier to do cause they really love their puzzles
While I'm holding my breath on the old character buff until we get more info. I'll go ahead and say it: Genshin would never.
From some sources, there are 3 possibilities, characters buff (low chance), Endgame contents with buff for some characters like in Genshin or Wuwa (things like +50% to Ice unit on the current moc) and the last one that seems to be implemented in Hsr thanks to old leaks would be the HI 3rd one : New sets to upgrade the power of the old units.
I would prefer the first one but who knows.
Genshin powercreep isn't as promiment to begin with tho 🤣
GENSHIN COULD NEVER GENSHIN COILD NEVER GENSHIN COULD NEVER
Sound all good.
CCP broke some knees cuz they would have not listened otherwise.
Sounds good 👀❤
some main story quest are great yeah. but lets be real. some of the main story quest is just so boring to listen that you want to skip it so bad. thank god we getting a skip button finally.
I liked the story is dont get the hate... sounds like a you problem situation... but a skip button will be nice for some of the side quests
Wait So if i understand we can JUST skip completly dialog?
adding a simple skip button shouldn't be that hard for them. games that focus on story and with far better stories like persona and metaphor has that option. idk why these gacha game devs think they're making something crazy.
This is huge L, instead of just adding a normal skip button, they somehow managed to piss me off more. So I still have to do a story idgaf about just instead of 30 hours it’s now 15 hours. The community should shame them for this . Normal missions are of issue too since they are not voiced and are long too, so no skip button for those
Just use acheron
