Bennet on yoimiya banner rn
Pull him, maybe(?)
Even just 1 bennet is pretty worth it
Don't do 10 pull btw, since u pulling 4stars
Just 1 by 1
i have lost the guaranteed 4* to 2
and 1
xd
Damn
wich means statistically i should get him pretty soon, i won't tho, that bad is my luck xd
dude 
Ngl though, I still really want c6 Noelle then c5 Bennett
She's still my beloved waifu
Momijiba
I used noelle a lot back when i still mained traveler, not so much nowadays
Money gone
I still kinda use Noelle when I use zhongli on other chamber
Both my first dps draining their hp anyway
Xiao and hu tao
But now that I have ayaka, diona is more fitting for sheild role
that's actually why i'm more scared the more i pull without bennet appearing, i want zhongli, but i don't think i'll be able to get him if i happen to pull 
thus why my first question, i want to know if it's worth replacing barbara's healing for diona's shield
Well Barbara is catalyst
Meaning she can hold the ttds
But her healing tick is quite, slow
I think diona healing is faster
Then her, but not as fast as kuki
Plus u get shield from diona, which is instant extra hp indirectly
what's ttds?
oh right, i got her that one
anyways, any good Accesible weapons for diona?
Well she need er
i got a few 4* bows
And hp

Did u uh, talk to the NPC in inazuma, the one on dock
do you have any idea how little that narrows it down
i have talked to a lot of npcs in docks
but by the look of it it's probably a quest to get a bow recipe
GTA online tho
Don't mind the ads lol
Sac bow is prolly better for diona
i got that one 😮
Lot of character need sacrificial series
For battery and shielding
i got two actually xd
battery is probably good because i have Xiangling in my team, and most of her dps comes from burst
It's a good idea to build separately
Yeap
that typo was tragic lmao
4 stars are easy to come by
True true, hmm
talking about the bow or diona :I ?
Better shield go with recurve, better energy go with favonius
However if u need some characters for the sake of battering, consider favonius as well
But I think diona sheild is quite weak to begin wit
if i'll replace healer probably better to go with better shield tbh
i think i got recurve bow
Nice then
Oh yea diona also scale heal by hp, thats too
I use 2 tenacity and 2 emblem on her, with recurve, got about 30k hp
30k hp? i don't think i got a single character with so much hp xd
isn't that like, amazing considering his shield :I
I kinda switch zhongli circlet HP with crit rate, and black tassel with favonius lance
Sometimes
also, any specific main traits for the artifacts or should i go full hp% ?
Hnmm if u do want to use recurve I guess u can keep er sand
And let other character use favonuis bow
i got fishl in my team, but she has stringless
Hmm true
But isn't she like need er too?
Since her CD skill quite long
Her burst reset her skill, I believe
more like, her burst makes an oz, but is separate from the skill
wich means if skill is in cooldown and i use burst
when burst ends i can use skill
Yeah that, hm
I'm not sure how to build fischl, I haven't build her yet
But I do get c3 and stringless, so like, yea
Well anyway
Favonius, HP, HP, HP/Crit rate
Recurve, Er, HP, HP
2 tenacity and 2 emblem
I don't think diona need em more then er or hp
Or cryo bonus
And also u get free cryo bonus on her ascension, weirdly
wait what? like a talent?
Ascension
yes, i meant an ascension locked talent xd
what? how does that work :I
Idk why they decide to give her cryo bonus, she's not dps at all
is that just a stat she has?
Yeap
Her base cryo bonus goes up as u ascend her
Hmm, I guess they still have the philosophy of 1 character can do all
Like Noelle
Which I guess Bennet was suppose to be like that, but since his burst still on without him on field
Or just random bs go
my team is that xd
As long it work, it work
ye, it can kill enemies 10 levels above surprisingly quickly
i just get Guoba and Oz out and then Heizou manages the rest while some overcharged happens xd, recently changing that to just Oz and heizou, since electro swirl works wonders with that ability Fishl has that makes Oz thunder enemies when doing an electro reaction, wich is even better with 4VV that makes the element used in swirl do more damage
god that's a lot of text xd
Yeap, vv is always good
Tbh, if u dont have bennet, I don't think diona needed in ur team
i'm still not sure if Heizou is the dps, or if it is Oz xd
Since cryo and electro
Hmmm, quite bad for heizou
U can replace bennet with Mona, I guess
Physical heizou 💪
i got her actually
not really, it's just that the combination stated above makes so much electro damage from Oz
Heizou still destroys
Wait wait, but frezee are 2 element, so technically u get both cryo and hydro damage
From vv
I think (?)
No
Hm
i'm trying to replace barbara where did the cryo came from if Barbara is replaced with Mona :I
over there ---------------->
huh, neat
It just that, electro and cryo just product super conduct
Mona is probably not good with my weird ass Heizou-Oz team i have xd
Something that u don't want for heizou
Yeah Mona can't replace Barbara, since she the only healer in ur team
i mean, i could replace Xiangling for now, she is still not c4
who need healer?
Me
most of the damage is from Heizou and Fishl
Oh why not replace Barbara with xingqui?
Best defense is a good offense
Kill them first so they can't kill you
Xingqiu does not healer.
probably because she's not an option
Actually that's better then diona for ur team
Xingqui heal player if the sword break
We know
And reduce damage base of xingqui hydro bonus damage
Xingqiu is capable of barely notable heals, not being a healer.
like trying to main heal with Sayu but only using E
I use er Sand and hydro goblet
hmmm, for now my must stay are Heizou and Fishl, with Barbara and in case it's needed Xiangling being replaced
My xingqui is build like semi healer then burst sheilder
He doesn't shield
not building XQ as a sub-DPS is such a waste
Beignets good healer. Kinda.
i mean, the best defence is a good offense, if i can kill faster i won't need as much healing rigth?
so replacing barbara with bennet "IF" i get him good idea?
killing after being dead is somewhat less useful.
My bennett heals around 4-5k per second and its enough to keep me alive
In that case I'd definitely swap Barbs for Mona though.
huh?
if you swapped Xiangling for Bennett.
so Heizou, Fishl, Bennet and Mona?
yar
will start building my mona now then she's lvl50 😂
double buffer and Heizou to VV.
Bennett works with anyone at c0-c5 and still works with a lot of people at c6 it's crazy
I like to keep bennet at c5, ha
why tho? is it actually worse at c6
Well
no, it just doesn't benefit a few specific characters.
And he gives a pyro dmg bonus iirc
but isn't it extra? isn't it exactly what he did before + that?
However, some character burst infuse can't be overidden, like xiao
But some can't, like ayaka
Eventho ayaka infuse her sword with cryo with her dash
Bennet still will infuse pyro on her sword
so, it is still as good, but better for some characters?
Yeap, is good for character who want pyro bonus
It's still good, it just benefits pyro characters better
then why is it worse??? 
basically it makes it so some teams cant use bennett really
it will infuse pyro if you want physical etc
Egg is misstating the issue. It changes characters who actually focus on physical damage to pyro.
Less utility but better damage for pyro
oh, well that explains it then xd
I know lol, I get confused there
Bc if u use a physical dps like eula he will infuse eula's attacks with pyro, meaning eula wont be getting the physical dmg bonuses and stuff she has
Pyro keqing ♥️
U need super conduct for physical
you should just be able to turn off the const imo
Toggleable cons when 🥺
Yeah same
You need to make better life decisions
It make everyone happy ngl
that's the problem xd
Toggleable cons
would be great for content people and stuff too, make guides for non whales lol
or just calculate the pyro damage after multipliers are added to physical.
@ionic verge has leveled up to LEVEL 8 
Extra pyro and infuse pyro
there are numerous ways they could fix the issue, but honestly, it's not really an issue, it's just a part of the character some folk don't like. shrug
True true
They should make cons toggleable however to balance it out if u want to turn off like c2 for example for someone and you had them c6, you'd have to turn off c2-c6
Honestly toggleable cons only makes sense for testers, with the odd exception like Bennett C6.
Idk i was just using it as an example lol
if cons are supposed to be generally beneficial, why would you ever want to turn them off?
to challenge yourself
or if you want to showcase a C0 build
Yeah, hu tao would like pyro bonus from c6 bennet
yeah but that just implies that they should fix bennett, not that you should be able to turn it off.
The only character we got fixed is Zhongli himself
even better, they could just roll both calculations, and apply whichever is greater.
And that was because majority complaining
tbh, having a pyro infuser is great, but it shouldn't be bennett's C6 if we can't toggle it
smart cons.
Watch them introduce a 5* Bennett to resolve all this whining
Majority people don't even have c6 or c5 Bennett, so I don't think they will fix bennet
pyro archon
I joined genshin after they fixed zhongli and i kinda wanna know why was he bad before they fixed him
they won't fix bennett because they're lazy, not because people don't have him. 😛
I join 2.2 second phase, I didn't even know he was weak back then
Nah, they just busy making other game
Like tower of fantasy
what that? is it bad?
a sweet smile is still my favourite song to this day
Ost
oh
this is what we call 'poor resource management' in the business.
more like, they will make billions either way lol
though Tower of Fantasy is not from Mihoyo.
I know they won't abandoned genshin, just afraid it can't make better content for next version
There are different production teams for diff HYV games too
Hmmm, I suppose so
it's from the other greedy ass scum sucking corporate shills PWI.
Dang
should i pull on yoimiyas just to get C6 Yun Jin
sure
ayato would really appreciate it and i already have c1 so why not
just don't get angry if you get Yoi.
probably won't, yoimiya's pretty cool
I love her, just reminding not to whine about losing your pity XD
and plus i'm not really going after the characters in the next patch. i already have zhongli, don't need kokomi or ganyu since I have ayaka and bennett is still a great healer
and tighnari will be added to standard soon
i'm sure it'll be fiiiiiine
hi
hello
how are ya?
decent
I mean it'll be fine regardless, just plenty of people seem to think they won't 'win' when it isn't convenient for them to do so XD.
It's worth to give it a shot, but just the thought of failing is depressing
me soon
Jean pretty good
@plucky drum has leveled up to LEVEL 20 
New Jeans
I'd take Jean nod
it's really no big deal if i win or lose, since my standard pity should be pretty high (that means i have a possibility to get tighnari when he's added to standard in 3.1)
nevermind my pity is literally the exact same as the character banner
not the worst to los 50\50 I'll admit, bui want zhongli 
Tighnari will be added to standart? meaning if i lose 50 50 i can get him?
yeh
Good luck! May you get early pity!
*yeah
that's cool!
3.1, he'll be added to standard
but is he good?
i think he's good, but that's just a personal opinion
i'm not in the beta testing so i can't really tell you if he's good or not
his kit looks solid and he's got a charged burst similar to Ganyu so good chance he'll be alright.
he looks alright he’s just boring imo
Ho
also Zhongli's burst looks awesome, would get him for that alone xd
still no Laharl.
fr? u want dps Zhongli?
also he's literally the best shielder in the game but cough cough aesthetics > meta imo
i prefer healers over shields
Tighnari isn't ganyu
Is all I can say
how do I say this? Nuke Zhongli?
S H I E L D
I'd be upset if he was ganyu. 😛
Zhongli c6 can shield and heal! two in one.
impossible, i skip through 90% of the dialogue
For the low low price of 6 extra 5 stars

what a steal!
technically Yoimiya also has charged burst like Ganyu, but is definitely not Ganyu. 😛
i do when doing missions, not so much when i' m exploring xd
i skip the story of genshin and i don't like to explore, but I do like seeing my hu tao nuke c:
She's got auto target tho
imagine reading 😂
imagine playing genshin
i cant read
loser
imagine
freemogems C:
relaaax
Tighnari is single target ganyu
Freemogems tomorrow
And only single target
tighnari is tighnari shut up
Fair
she slurp the hydro shield out of the abyss mage
wait, its a he
now kill them
trap
no 😠
keqing banner

😩
imagine losing 50 50 to Keqing
i don’t have her
A perm character sounds like something different
let's be honest though, i'll probably get c6 yun jin by the time sumeru ENDS.


I'd say, they should add all the old 5 star characters to the standart character, and they won't show in a limited banners anymore and then create even more 5 stars C:
somehow i haven’t gotten c6 bennet yet
ive gotten more than enough of yunjin
and only like 1 xinyan
yeah but then that just swamps the standard banner with too many 5 stars
i don't think they can arbitarily move limiteds to the perm banner
and then you'll have an even lower chance to get the 5 stars from there
||rumors say tighnari will become standard||
tighnari they specifically said he would be perm
which is fair imo
not rumors lol
Klee gaming, hello! how are you doing?
hi drip, genshin hiatus rn
only doing abyss for the forseeable future
you too? i am missing so many freemogems
your mental health is more important
I would prefer that they add some of the older 5* than throwing some new 5* on the basic banner. Mihoyo however seems to delight in ignoring every reasonable idea and doing their own shit.
albedo?
$$$
Klee, Venti, Albedo, Zhongli, Tartangles, any of these could be added no issue.
it's because they sold the limiteds as limited
We need another hydro unit c:
dont' think they can just switch them to perm
i doubt theyd do archons on standard /shrug
albedo and childe have seen reruns and while good, not gamebreaking
tighnari will though
playing genshin on a friends acc is starting to become boring. they don't want me doing story for them so i literally can't do shit other than quests and exploring but it's boring as hell and it's not like any of my friends would reasonably stick around to watch me do that. plus yoimiya (the character they really want) is going away in 8 days and we still have 20 more pulls to go before we get her guaranteed yoimiya
I've skipped Albedo and gotten Eula back then, she is very useful for talents materials grind
there's no such disclaimer on the normal limiteds
well, it's just a suggestion after all, same case as the anniversary rewards

man you do their dailies? woah
but we don't talk about that
yes.
people were suggesting a free standard 5* long long ago, which wouldn't be game breaking at all
fun fact i started yoimiyas banner on their acc with no pulls and guaranteed because they pulled keqing on kazuhas banner
there's nothing saying that they have to keep limited banners limited forever, either.
i forget to do comms on my own acc
or well more like I pulled Keqing on their acc with their permission
what other concept of banners would you want to see in genshin other than limiteds?
the limited/non limited thing might have legal repercussions
i can see why they avoid it
Well, there a few game flaws that should be adressed, but the standard pool, while important, not as much as the others
it's not only genshin that doesn't do this
personally if someone can’t be bothered to do their comms just delete the game at that point
More like you don't want them to!
I have once gotten Fischl from standard* banner!


at the rate i'm going i'll get 25 starglitter
they aren't asking me to do this btw. i'm just bored out of my mind and i wanna do something nice, but then again i have to follow their guidelines
every time i fail
well, if they update, and make you agree with the terms of service, no one would be able to complain
legaly speaking

not really
because no one reads the terms and conditions

the courts actually rule on what's reasonable
they've been known to throw out arguments on signed ndas/etc because restrictions were not reasonable
something like that
but yes they shoudl upgrade the perm banner with new 5*s
it's getting old getting 25 starglitter
context: the friend is actually my ex but friend is the better term since i still talk to em and we hang out regularly
i doubt childe will be put in
Technically they could add a limited 5* to the standard banner, but they would have to change a few things
they'll want to sell him along other harbingers
skip
i want childe on my main so badly oh my god
albedo and mini albedo, aka, klee then
they should also give a fucking reasonable compensation for greater than C6 5* pulls. 25 starglitter isn't even salt for the goddamn wound, it's just pissing in it.
though, isn't klee older than albedo?
albedo seems to be the new seasonal 5 star along with klee/kazuha
albedo comes every december, kazuha and klee came during summer last year too iirc

there is a compromise though, i asked them to work on clearing out the story when they're free
Moaning
what's the problem, mona's pretty good (even though being pretty niche in teamcomps)
C7+
not nearly enough to compensate for losing a 5*
literally not even enough to straight up buy a 4*, which is a fucking joke.
get screwed on a 5* and don't even get a 4* in return.
6 pulls isn't great as compensation either
the xiangling
I'm only counting the reward for the 5*
that's still not good though you're right
something that guarantees the banner 5* if i got 10 of them or smth
at least that wouldn't suck so much
we'll be getting new prototypes with sumeru right
lowkey don't really feel like doing bosses
I'd rather they just remove the character from the rolls. maybe have some exclusive item if you ever get to where there's no 5* left on the banners
or just exchange for a 5* weapon, at least those you can theoretically use multiple of.
C0 Xiangling, C3 Xingqiu. AR 55
yeah because even if you get a R5 of an Aquilla Favonia, you can just get another R1 for your Bennett or Kaeya or something
yeah
i'll just go back to the grind
Give me your XQ and take mine
not even free character? those are always good
Hopefully they are on zhongli Or kokomi banners
not that enthusiastic about the whole region in general
Enkanomiya, chasm, and tsurumi island were released when I joined the game
And all 3 of them were soo good
expect for rfithounds
i hate those mfers
Ah yes, the dog
Guys i woke and i though it’s spiral reset today haha
Eazy 600 againz tomorrow
Same line up??
They will put all new enemies from sumeru in 3.0 abyss
Yes
Yesss
Including the new treasure horder type
Bruh why can't that bird just go away
I hate that thunder bird
My childe international doesn't work on that
i hate thunder chicken
Lvl 20
Here’s my Floor 11 line up
This is mine
Probably will replace diona with zhongli idk
But then cyro and break sheilds
Hehe
Same to you bhayy
Kuch nai
heyo, can someone help me importing the wishing history from a ps4 to the website? :)
What floors?
Or what domains?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
only doable if u link to a device / hyv account
cant do directly from ps4
so i have to install genshin on my phone and following the steps for Android?
yea
thx
np
haha
wish that was true tho
what did i came back to? 
Does xiao ult always guarantee high jump dmg
yea
ABYSS RESET TOMORROW :DD
Guys
Yes
Na>burst>skill
Unless you have a C6 xiao, then it's
Skill>>
Alr sir
Talking of xiao, why is it that sometimes when he plunge, I see 2 numbers
some times I see one number
show screenshot or footage
Plunging directly on an enemy's head will deal two instances of damage
mhmhm
No, there's still a low plunge and a high plunge
Unlike kazuha after e, always high plunge
I do play on America server but i ain't American

Can someone carry me in Fires of Purification V domain Asia server

Idk where to post my sketch drawing, I assume is here
Is bit nsfw I guess
thats cool bro but do you have this
might be a "log out log back in" problem, but I think you need to use the electrograna that's on the ship with electro seelie in its branches
the seelie is inside of this room too
some (hopefully constructive) criticism ||your cameltoe maybe needs some real life modeling, it seems like the underwear looks a little pasted on||
might be time for a walkthrough then, i don't remember exactly how it goes. maybe use the phase gate up above? or is there another seelie inside the electro barrier higher up?

nice noelle
actually the conduction puzzle just wasnt there lol
reloging fixed it thx
it's so weird that so many puzzles get scuffed and that's the fix
NPC randomly went missing? just turn it off and back on again
Thank
It's intentional, no worries
yoo
yo
for ganyu ya
everyone else is a skip
i need another dps
hmm
i am going for zhongli for collection purposes and kokomi coz maybe good bloom ?
copium
i'll go for Zhongli, need a way for my team for second half to actually survive xd
why tho :I ?
xd, so basically you want him but not too close to kusanali
venti is also needed for collection purpose
and so the harbingers (but not twerp scara)
i'm a completionist, and man being a comletionist in a gacha game is pain xd
@wanton flame has leveled up to LEVEL 5 
specially because of aloy
last archon quests are “Requiem of the Echoing depth” and “Perilous Trail”
^
yoo
oYo
reminder: kokomi is better than childe
She is
indeed
how is Fishl so easy to build? i have been building Heizou since i got him like at the start of last banner, and he's lvl 70, i got Fishl like a week ago and she's already almost lvl80
Priorities
mondstat > liyue > inazuma > etc. for difficulty of material collection
Violet grass>>
why does heizou needs material from ruin serpent tho? what's the sense of that?
same reason why childe uses mondstadt talent books but liyue local specialty
Ez
they've all been easy.
60 free primos a day is amazing
is it really though?
like getting a penny from Uncle Scrooge, sure it doesn't happen often so it's remarkable, but it's still just a fucking penny. 😛
bad analogy, the mere fact the penny was from Uncle Scrooge would make it's collection value go to the moon
Am I the only one that thinks that HYV gives out enough freemos?
probably
lol
like 3.0 will be the most freemos per patch, and it's like not quite enough to get to pity 1 time, where you would win/lose a 50/50
well yea usually u need to save for two patches to get a 5 star
i think thats fair
Well, that's what people say "I can't even get a guaranteed xyz" or what have you
right so you would need >2 patches of 3.0 lvl of primos to get to 1 guaranteed 5*
but as an f2p, I think I've gotten guaranteed 5-stars every 3/4 banner rotations, with some cool low-pity chars in the mix
much faster and I wouldn't really have the resources to build them anyway
as f2p u just need to be really picky with what u want
right
the actual reason why i say its enough primos is bcos theres enough rolls for f2p to get enough starglitter to buy a specific shop character on shop rotation
bcos u can nab bennet and xingqiu from shop, and then ur f2p team roster already looks like a p2w player's
I mean, what am I supposed to be complaining about? "HYV should give me a 5* for every banner" or "I deserve guaranteed every other banner"
(which are the same, if you think about it)
seems like it'
s partly the uncertainty, since banner past the next patch usually are somewhat sussy leaks
i mean u cant expect them to not make money lol
i think theyr plenty generous
so your budget horizon is longer than your ability to know what you're budgeting for
yea so its important to know what u want
for me, my next want is a consistent off field dendro applier
so im not gonna care until one of those comes around
i mean, maybe they're heading to that point, where like you'll always know what time of year a character will rerun
new year: zhongli/ganyu/xiao, summer: kazuha, winter: eula/albedo, etc
in which case budgeting is easier to reason about
i think good character reruns are about a year
real talk, is using condensed resin better than using original resin for artifact farming?
it saves more time yea
but other than that theres no difference
if u want to spend more time in the domain up to u
thx
is there official data/documentation on whether or not condensed gives you exactly double?
(curious)
there's RNG, so it's exactly the same chances, but the actual output varies
i like it because it decreases the likelihood that the domain run will feel like a complete waste of my time
u mean it halves the number of times that the domain run feels like a waste of time
(bcos it halves the number of times u run the domain)
yeah

like i can still get a full maidens run of the VV domain, it just happens less often
it just happens twice as fast
allows me to spend more of my time not playing genshin
only if you could prove it.
I do not.
you need to save for 3 patches, fwiw
unless you pull early
and that's to pull any 5*
so worst case you're saving for 6 patches to get 1 guaranteed 5 star
surely u get 80 pulls in 2 patches
did i just multiply twice? maybe i did
Ah yes, the most worst run I ever had on crimson domain
Literally happen at same day in few minutes between
but no, 3.0 you'd get to 70, and it's the most primos of any patch to date
Atleast the goblet have cryo bonus and crit dmg
80 is soft pity, so if u can get 80 in two patches thats a very good chance at 5 star
because even if you 'get' one it's not guaranteed to be the one you want, also weapons, we don't get 1 5* we usually get 2 or more.
why is it only fair if ur guaranteed?
i think its fair for the 50/50
u win som u lose som
i mean, yea its predatory
but i think theyr generous enough for the model
you are welcome to your opinion, I disagree simply because of how shitty the rolls are already.
i defintly agree that for newer players its pretty hard to get into now
considering they're one of the -least- generous models I've ever encountered, I am not inclined to approve of them.
I like the game, I hate the company.
really? mihoyo is one of the best companies from what iv playd lol
who the heck gives real money currency for fixing bugs
nobody
Atleast kazuha er with iron sting is nearly fixed
try Epic 7.
im also always impressed at the amount of effort genshin puts into everything regardless of whether its free or not
obv the open world is free, and its definitly one of the most well made worlds in gaming
Genshin is a great game, that doesn't mean I have to approve of the business side of it.
yeah
Genshin as a game is good
I love their graphics and lore
But they are miser and greedy
i agree the gacha model is bad
but i dont mind it bcos its not even neccesary to do well in the game
theres really not many other games with that
I think it is absolutely stupid that I need to save (with welkins) for 2 versions to get a 5 star that I want
It's not necessary but when your main selling point/genre is shitty
I think that there is something wrong
Genshin at core is Gacha rpg
I mind it because it sets a bad precedent. I really don't want other companies thinking they can get away with what they're doing.
So I'd expect the Gacha to be good
i do appreciate that the must-pull characters are mostly 4 star
thats the point tho, its want thats hard to get, while need is much easier
the precedent prior to this is that there is no difference between the two and both are hard to get
cough blizzard coughcough diablo immortal
it may be a point, but it's not a difficult point to ignore.
Arguably, the needs in the form of artefacts is also hard to get because of their beautiful rng
Would u guys prefer to have unlimited resin for 2 months or 10k primogems (u can't convert the primo to resin)
particularly for any new company looking to start their own new game.
True, once u pull u need resin
way too many mmo games pretty much just get to the point where its an infeasible grind to get anywhere unless u pay
but genshin isnt like that
(well genshin isnt really an mmo either, but imo it plays like one)
I mean if you wanna compare to "Oh this is less shitty than others"
Why don't we go
"Oh it is so much shitter than others" too
my partner is convincing me to play FFXIV, and no, it's nothing like genshin
FFXIV is unlimited hours of extremely mid entertainment for a set monthly fee. genshin actively tries to make it feel bad if you don't spend more
i think the feeling bad part is a personal problem lol
thats u falling prey to the system, u gotta not fall into the hole
and for comparison, AAA games are like "spend a large amount of money upfront for something you may ragequit in 3 hours"
it's not tho, it's actually genshin/gacha's stated purpose
there are definitely worse games/companies out there than Genshin/Mihoyo, this does not excuse them though XD
being prey for greedy bastards is their failing, not yours/mine
as somebody who has 4 accts for genshin 3/4 being f2p, the game is a lot friendlier towards f2p than you think
It's not the "Oh it's your issue" things
It's more so the fact that you grind and pay and save for 3 months
Only to go full pity twice and obviously lose the 50-50
i mean yea and theres always gonna be better companies that doesnt change that mihoyo is one of the better ones
you gotta just plan better for who u roll for
It just feels painful because of the time you spent waiting and gathering
the game is extremely f2p friendly
I think if i knew everything i know now at the start of the game, i could've made it much more f2p friendly
I won't deny that it isn't f2p friendly
iirc for a while there was people running new account speedruns
@lament galleon has leveled up to LEVEL 10 
record for new account to abyss12 complete was like 2 weeks or somthing
that was during a very good abyss blessing tho
If you want every character, you gotta spend $ but if you only want a select few, roll for who you like and for the love of god skip who u dont want
it is f2p friendly, and I recognize that, it's one of the main reasons I don't boycott completely. That and I love the game itself. I just think they could stand to be quite a bit more generous without losing anything.
well the meta is 4 star shop characters so thats not an issue
the fact that u could end up spending $400 for a single limited character (not even a con) and $500 for a SINGLE weapon is ridiculous
the irony is, they would get a whole lot more of my money, if they were less goddamn stingy when I spend it.
i dont think ur in any position to claim that
who?
hav u earnd more money using a different model?
i havnt
so who am i to judge how much money they earn
what?
obv what theyr doing is working
It's not earning money
huh????
It's the worth
its the worth
Worth for what you're paying
Warframe.
this, i mean
to get a single copy of a limited character and weapon it could cost you almost $1k
my statement is 100% accurate
It's the worth
one thousand dollars
They would have gotten more of my money, if I got more out of it, because that's how I'm wired.
warframe in total didnt even earn what genshin earnd in a couple years
so obv genshin is doing it better
i mean also it could be marketing
im lucky enough to jave never needed to do that but jfc i have friends who spend 1.3k just to get the character an extra con and their weapon
If me and Luka both sell tees
She sells for a dollar, I sell for 10
You can't say I did better just because I earned 10 times hers
mhm
or just the general appeal of warframe's type of game
i have to sell ten times as much as kiri to profit and stay at the same level
Yep
genshin makes a lot of money, and continues to do so, precisely because of its post-BOTW timing, and the delays of BOTW 2
this is a non-sequitur, they are not comparable games, they are simply games that have free to play models that earn money that way.
And I earn more just because I price shit more
if i sell ten times, and if kiri sold something TWICE theyd already be ahead
mhm bc u get more copies with less money
right but they made the comparison, i just said another reason why they shouldnt compare
Because she is selling the same thing as me, at 1/10th the rate
well ur never gonna sell 10 times bcos it maxes out at c6 lol
you said 'show me a game where I paid more because I got more out of it'
I have easily spent more on Warframe than Genshin, and never once regretted doing so.
anyway im saying i agree its predatory, i agree its bad, but i think mihoyo in current position does not need to be more generous
yeah they really do, they just don't understand why they do.
They need to START being generous in the first place
and im sure theyv got large teams of smart people going thru millions of datapoints figuring out why they dont
sure, their corporate stakeholders don't "need" to, but i refuse to acknowledge corporate behaviour as "fair"
Making me work my ass off fighting annoying ass snakes for 50 primos is just horrid
who are probably being ignored by the money men because 'it's working now why change it'
goodmorning/evening yalls
hoyo bootlickers istg
well so far from what iv seen on the structure of hoyoverse and the CEO of the company they seem like decent people
they did some charity work during covid that didnt even get much press
money men are fundamentally incapable of valuing user joy/user experience as its own marketing value
the question you gotta ask, and this is the reason why Genshin is so bad, is how much should a single digital product that individually costs the company nothing to give, actually cost to buy.
^
Characters?
collectively/in aggregate, not individually
primos r the characters tho
Note, I said individually, I recognize that there is a cost to game production, that isn't relevant to the question.
when u get primos what r u getting them for
Because my Kazuha cost me wayyy more than some of y'all
I also explicitly didn't say 'characters' I said 'product'
So does it directly translate to character
no, because they 'sell' other things than characters, weapons, packs, etc...
thats true, mine costed less than avg
my 10000th copy of Harbinger of dawn
no wonder you think they're fair
It is easier to look at the company and system with your rose tinted glasses when you have it so green and Ws
go sit in a corner and think about your life choices
lol
i do that often enough
And your privilege/blessing
most of us don't even pull on the weapon banner, so
I never have enough primos for the weapon banner because of how generous hornyverse is
👁👄👁
also mayb i just havnt played other generous games
At the end of the day all the people complaining, still keep playing this game, so hoyoverse must be doing something right 
bcos the two other mmos iv playd have nowhere near as generous model as hoyoverse
ones long dead and the other is dying now
a huge shame bcos it was incredibly fun
its a mmo bullet hell game with permadeath
I mean, Everquest and UO were absolutely awful for RNG stuff.
and from AAA games that have gotten bad press about stuff like that, diablo eternal and star wars battlefront, genshin really looks pretty generous lol
Honestly I think you can have a great experience with genshin as an f2p if you have self control and are able to resist the hype and marketing of hoyoverse to pull for every character and just pick and select your favorites and save for them, if you're weak willed and have fomo then you're fucked
not to mention games that have p2w pvp
I barely have as much green on all three of my pull screens than he has on just the character...
Painful
I mean those games should not have ever existed 😛
at least not in the form they were presented to us.
genshin is very non p2w, without even comparing to worse things
my luck is grim 😮💨
Genshin is definitely not p2w, excepting in the sense that you can pay for more options.
if i could point to one reason that i'm still playing the game & spending after running out of story, that's it
What is even "winning" in genshin?
if it were p2w i would've noped out a long time ago
you can totally complete all the content just as well with nothing but free stuff. Which is perfectly as it should be.
