  • I finally decided to try Genshin Impact completely free to play... and the experience was interesting. I figure out how long it takes to get to Adventure Rank 25 and how many wishes new players get. This also serves as a guide for new players to begin their exploration in Genshin Impact. This also serves as a guide for new players to hit Adventure Rank 25 as fast as possible.

    I consider myself to have progressed into the veteran player bracket, but let me say that as a fully F2P player, when a random 10-pull nets you a limited 5 star character, the exhilaration is REAL.
    That excitement is reminiscent of how great GI felt as a new player when you just got ANY new character to join your party. It was such a great time learning about who the character was and what they were all about.
    On the subject of pulling; luck has been pretty wild this 4.0 patch. Got Neuvillette early, Navia in a vanity 10-pull, along with Raiden and Nahida just before or around soft pity, never losing a 50-50 for any of them.
    Update: Lads, I was feeling the LNY spirit and did a few pulls. Xianyun came out of her abode and said she wished to travel and see the world too. Dipped into the primo-stash, and came out with an early 50-50 win 🏆.

      I don't do random 10 pulls, so when I get an early 5*, my feeling is of relief, not excitement. I knew I'd get this one because I saved, but it means I will be able to afford the next character I'm prioritizing.

      There should be a way to get event weapons as a new player but 95% of them are completely replaceable. Festering Desire is great for Furina but the Fontaine craftable and Fav sword exist. And while Cinnebar is bis for Albedo, he is not a meta character anyway.

    I started playing around 2.6 during ayaka's banner. I didn't know there was a gacha system and i thought i got characters from progressing through the quests. This happened until i realized there was a gacha system after completing inazuma's archon quest around ar 40-ish (i was looking through achievements, collecting shiny gems (primogems) and began to wonder what these shiny gems are used for. It took that long bcs genshin is my first gacha game. The first standard character i got was mona from wishing on the noelle banner. Ayaka was my first limited 5 stars thanks to her extended banner that people called her banner eternal at that time. I lost 50/50 to mona again at soft pity if i'm not mistaken but i managed to grab ayaka at the last day of her banner before 2.7 started

      Actually, the best way to play the game. Neglect gacha as much as possible. Only click it when you see a character you really like.
      For me, this is also the first gacha game, and I say, it will be the only one. Gacha games are generally terrible. The only reason I allow Genshin in my life is because it is so much more than a regular gacha - it is a game you can actually PLAY.

    I have been playing since day one, but about a year ago I started a second account which I have kept f2p and under ar 25. That second account has been so much fun! I still maintain my main account so the second one feels very relaxing to play without any fomo or worry about maxing all my characters. I use the second for exploration and co op when I want to have a chill evening and it really has been a fantastic experience (so different to the main account!). Like you touch on here there is a wealth of experiences for new/low level players and I honestly think that I have more plain fun on my second (low level) account than I do on my main.

    The highlight being pulling a character that helped traverse the world better, showcases (imo) that there's an issue with mobility for most characters.
    I reached a point in my game where I was running Yelan & Sayu to get around the world faster because running around consumed so much time.
    I genuinely believe that the game would be better if they implemented some sort of mount or out of combat movement speed bonus.

    It was a treat to watch you have that f2p excitement about an early 5-star pull. It just hits different when you know you'll have to stack up the primogems by spending time playing the game. You had some great tips for anyone looking to rank up a new account quickly (Waypoints, mondstadt exploration, adventurer's handbook), but also for new players (stuff like: keep thrilling tales and grab every anemoculus you can for increasing stamina). I would love to see you make more like this (whether continuing an f2p account or just making tips/guides to mid-game [AR 25-45?] player experience)

    A bit over a year ago, I did a similar exercise and started a new account to experience the game from a newcomer's F2P perspective. I've been playing since launch and am not F2P on my main. It was really fun and made me appreciate the game a lot more. The only problem is that I stuck with that account and it's AR59 now, but still F2P. It's kind a pain managing two accounts but no regrets. The funny thing is that the first banner I decided to pull on was Nahida and I managed to beat the 50/50 to get her. It felt so exhilarating getting her and she was a game changer for my F2P account.

  • @ZeonZenes
    @ZeonZenes 3 місяці тому +1

    These kinds of videos are always super insightful for how the game is for people that didn't start playing Day 1 like I did for both Genshin and HSR. Like for Genshin, a lot of us were rerolling with like 30ish free Month 1 pulls hoping for whoever to come extremely early, while in HSR you were guranteed to get your first 5 star by the time you reached the underworld of Belobog - and you probably still can today.
    It makes me glad I did choose to start playing these games day 1 and not months later as I likely wouldn't have stuck with Genshin had the free stuffs from launch not helped give me what I wanted. It's why I think if you're even 1% interested in one of these kinds of games, you should pick it up immediately when it launches - something I'll be doing for ZZZ when it comes out despite me being completely turned off by the tv aspect. FOMO launch rewards have me in their clutches for Hoyo games.

    I was also over AR30 when I got 5* Xianyun on my alt account, but didn't use her because my alt account was to see how far I'd get with 3* weapons and starter characters (to simulate a player coping while waiting for their favourite).
    Starter characters and 3* weapons only works fine even in the newest Fontaine: most of my starters only combat consisted of Lisa and Barbara normal attacking through walls and ceilings.

    As a f2p player. Steady going for archon quests is the best way to catch up. I did so when inazuma was still freshly opened. and at low levels, building elemental mastery (for elemental reactions such as overload) is a good way to provide damage without thinking too much of the standard build. Since artifact farming isn't really suitable for low level domains in the early game. Slow and steady completing quests and keep on banner pulling as multi-characters are better than none.

I got him at early-ish pity and the reason why It took me long to have a five star from 1.0 to 1.6 is that I was saving for a character that I like, Zhongli and Childe tempted me to pull but I still saved my primogems, definitely one of the best choice that I did in my account because Kazuha really helped me in a lot of scenarios and abyss was a lot easier with him. Now I almost have all the 5 star characters and I am a slight whale in the game but I am missing the experience that I have when I was still in the early phase of Genshin Impact. ❤️

    I started playing in 1.3, and being an AR60 end game player, it’s really just turned into a daily grind to farm for artifacts and collect daily commission primogems. Of course there is still joy in exploring new regions and trying out new characters whenever they are released, but I personally find that Genshin Impact becomes more monotonous the more you play and I really don’t fault other end-game players from quitting the game either. (Most of my friends on my friend list are inactive eternally “over 31 days” players)

    I started the game in early December 2020 iirc. I pulled for Zhongli, but I was a bit late for his banner, so I didn't manage to get enough pulls. The next patch was Albedo, whom I eventually got as my first 5* (that was around 75-77 pulls). I actually was very surprised when I got him, I thought it was early, though it was not, and I didn't really understand how the banner system works at that time.
    It's true that we get attached to our first high rarity character. To this day I enjoy using Albedo in different teams, my most recent and most favorite is Albedo/Neuvillette/Diona/Kazuha.

    It is worth noting that while the chest to time ratio is lower in the first two nations, they are less ideal for farming early game primogems as roughly half the common chests in both nations do not give primos. Fontaine and the new Chenyun Vale have a much higher average of primos to chests ratio with both areas having a surprising amount of low effort luxurious chests. If you are up for a slightly higher early game difficulty, Dragonspine is the most profitable part of Mondstadt.
    I've made several f2p (with additional restrictions) accounts over the years and if you make a beeline for the more profitable areas of the map you can get your first 5* fairly quickly. I've found an average of two off the limited banner and one off standard by AR45 but that is just my experience. It wouldn't likely be the same for someone playing without prior experience with the game. I'm not sure exactly how many primos are in the game (aside from dailies and events) but I'd estimate enough to hit soft pity at least 3-4 times. Granted that would probably take hundreds of hours to obtain everything. This turned into rambling.

  • @fraugoldt4766

    I'm thinking about making a casual side account for a while now. Just for the purpose to play all the quests chronologically as they where released and explore the regions in chronological order one by one. I'd like to finish 1.0 content before going to 1.1 content and so on. My account is kind of all over the place in regards of this matter and it bothers me. 😅 The thing is: I played for a long time without Zhongli, got him relatively late in my playthrough but since I have him I literally forgot how to dodge and stay alive on my own - that could make things difficult on a new account. And of course there are other QoL characters I wouldn't have. And when I'm thinking about alle the event exclusive weapons I wouldn't have or the events I just couldn't take part in because I'm still at an early region - the FOMO gets real. That's why I'm still thinking about the idea instead of just doing it.

    I remember pulling Keqing at the first Kazuha banner when I started and she carried me a bunch until she came home WAY too often. Took me a while to bench Kazuha as my first limited 5* because he's just so damn good and my attachment to him. Almost 3 years in the future and now I'm maining Yoimiya who was also my second limited 5*, though Kazuha is still helping here and there

    I started at v1.0 - and stopped, since there was nothing to do. I came back for a few days to pull Ganyu and a few days to pull Eula in the past year, but I honestly just started playing again this month because RL sucks extra hard recently, and I wanted to see what had changed in the past almost four years. Gotta say it’s a fun game, and I love everything about Liyue. And yes Xianyun makes traversing the world ridiculous painless. What I hated the most was always climbing cliffs and running out of stamina.

    It took me a few months before I pulled a 5 star. Which was itto... So as someone who hates quests, getting access to Inazuma level up material took months probably 6 to 8 months before I had a usable 5 star character.
    I too cherish my 1st 5 star. For that one reason alone, I rock mono geo ( pun intended) whenever I can.

    Funnily enough, I started playing the game for the first time a few days before this video came out. I'm... technically not f2p, since I took the subscription for a bit of primogems each day, but since I have hoarded every limited wish so far and not made any roll beyond the permanent banner, I might as well be.
    It is pretty frustrating that you're not guaranteed a character on a 10-pull. At this point, I only have a handful of C0 4*, and among them, there's a couple I can't even raise due to needing mats from Sumeru. Still, I'm having fun. Recently broke through AR35, currently taking my first steps in Inazuma. Went through a rough patch, resource-wise, until I realized that alchemy was pretty convenient for ascension mats.
    Story-wise, I'm not amazed or anything so far, but I know the best is yet to come, there were a couple of good moments in Liyue to keep me interested even if the pacing was kind of awful, and I like Inazuma's vibes so far (not its puzzles though, kind of hate them) - even if I know I should probably manage my expectations (something about a rushed ending?). And yeah, it was weird playing through the Lantern Rite event and having all these characters that clearly know me when I haven't the slightest clue about them.
    Anyway, it was pretty funny to see some of my experiences pretty much reflected exactly in this video.

    It took me over a month to get my first 5-star; I got Diluc while wishing on the Klee banner in 1.0 and honestly, soooo glad I dodged Klee. I often wish I could have the "first time" experience with Genshin again; that first few months were a wonderful experience. I still enjoy the game, but it'll never be like it was back when I first started.

    Another tip would be to not skip side quests. aside from the rewards they give, many side quests, especially the larger ones, can serve as a helpful exploration guide. Especially in places like the chasm where there are many levels, the world quests generally guide you to most of the way points and major areas you need to get to, or allow you to access the map or puzzles with gadgets or other things related to the quests. And you'll want to access all the puzzles and chests because as an f2p every primo available on the map is good to get if you plan on wishing

    for a new player, its recommend to instantly clear the entire dragonspine right after ar15 (first ascension) it will give tons of resources, it help you clear at least floor 5, and probably you will get at least 1 5star at ar25. it only took 5 hours. goodluck!

    On my main account I buy Welkin and BP and on rare occasions, like birthday or Xmas, I may buy some crystals. Not quite a year ago I started my third account to see what it was like to be totally f2p. Of course knowing what I was doing made it easier, so it doesn't quite compare to a new player's experience. I went with 'I'll build any character I get if I like them'. Got blessed with an off-banner Heizou quite fast as well as Layla and Yaoyao and they pretty much carried me through the early parts. My first 5-star on that account was Qiqi at 75 pity on Nahida's banner. I did not build Qiqi, since I already had a healer and then I was able to invite Dr. Baizhu as he was guaranteed to be my first limited 5-star. I also got Mona from Standard banner about the same time.
    I did need to ask for help in the early stages with the bosses, but once I had characters leveled up there was no content I wanted to do and could not. The game is totally playable without spending a cent, it just takes a bit more dedication. I wish everyone better luck than I've had on my account though as to this day I have only won 50/50 once.

      Early game Layla would be incredible. She's so easy to build, and her shield is good. The only downside is needing Sumeru materials (Robot Chicken mostly).
      When I first started I got Kuki and lost my first 50/50 to Tighnari, and just aggrevate/spread my way through the early game. They were my team core until I got to Inazuma.

    My first 5 star was Kazuha, back when everyone was saying he was terrible. I think it was my first or second 10 pull.
    While it is interesting to start the game over and see what it feels like, I think the part that you are missing is that feeling of not having a clue what is important in the game. I felt like that took forever to just learn the basics, and I can imagine it's only worse now with so many things that they have added over the years.
