    Repetitive content, greedy company, bad game, it has strengths but overall they just want the money from their fans, decent FPS

    Company should at least start listening to what their players are complaining and not just silencing them. Greed won't do them well

    Genshin was one of my favorite games to play of late. I have 350 days logged and I've been playing since launch, so I'm telling you this is the worst game state I've seen in awhile. The game itself is fine, but the development team and rewards are both poor and lacking. This games anniversary is the worst I've seen. You get a 10 pull, 100 primo gems, and 80k mora.

For a reminder we got more or less the SAME EXACT THING! If not a little more. Now when compared to the monumental support Genshin gets we as fans should've gotten more. Not only that, they choose to ignore, silence or BAN fan complaints or criticism because they feel like they are just. They took away signatures in the game, they banned people in discord, and they banned people on reddit as well solely because fans are upset with the lackluster and frankly lazy rewards. They have wasted almost 10 million dollars or anniversary emojis on Twitter; mind you we basically got rerun rewards in game though. Their customers support recently has abysmal with auto-generated replies, when we used to get genuine response. The recent events have been boring, unengaging and uninnovative. To top it off character design and structure. The characters they've made recently have had major issues that the community have tried to tell MiHoYo about but they refuse to listen. Yomiya internal cool downs, Baal not paring with Beidou, and Kokomi as a whole character is so greatly flawed. Please do not play this game until the game state is fixed. I am being completely honest as someone who has played a year, do not play this until it MiHoYo fix their stuff. I'm done supporting them as well until everything is fixed.… Expand

Even with the gacha roll odds being really poor, the gameplay being somewhat repetitive at times, and the amount of progression blocks being kinda absurd at times, it is still a excellent free-to-play game that could become an excellent game in general if they find fixes for the game's problems that will keep it challenging and enjoyable for the player.… Expand

    I don't understand why people don't see what this game really is. It's just a bad copy of Zelda. It has no mobile optimisation, needs way too much disk space, needs to be connected at any time (it is completely stupid for a mainly single-player game) and, on top of that, it has a dumb pay to win gacha. Don't waste time and money with this thing and simply play another game.

    The good:
    Amazing JRPG game. Interesting story of discovered. Open world map with many points to explore. Many characters with different characteristics to approach the game and complete the missions (there are 18 but it is expected up to 30 different ones, Good character design, lots of character charisma (so far no clone characters, they are all different). This game does have temples and dungeons delimited by level. Tower system to discover points of interest. Battles against huge bosses (dragons, giants, ancient machines ...). Various fighting modes not only sword or bow (also spears, melee, elemental magic and arcane magic, ...). The same game account and advance can be used on IOS, Android and PC account, but not on PS4

    The bad:
    The abusive gacha, if you want to have stronger characters without being farming or leveling you have to put money into the game and advocate your luck so that the rolls give you something minimally useful (a character or a weapon that you want, but it falls into the totally random , being able to leave anything moderately useful or garbage). It is a Pay to Fast-Advance, Pay to craving (pay to advance faster), Pay to Waifu (pay to have a certain character sooner). The **** shadow of BotW many see The Valley open to explore and are already criticizing or labeling it as a clone without personality (when it is not).

    Meh !:
    Do not be fooled, this game is only visually similar to Zelda: BotW (in Zelda there are no dragons, No cities, or hundreds of NPCs to interact with, many playable characters with different characteristics and it does not have dungeons or temples either). similar to Tales Of ..., Shining Resonance Refrain or Eternal Sonata. This game is the "IOS / Android broke device" because not in all devices games medium / medium high runs properly and in most devices mid and low range do not even support the game, for example I started playing on an iPhone 6 Plus S and the experience was bad, but for my device not for the game itself (change device top iPhone 11, and the game run fluid).    … Expand

    (10 points only from the standard of Gacha Game. and 10 points to adjust the points from those unreasonable haters.) There is a complete single-player gameplay experience for a F2P player. There is enough open-world content, extraordinary music, light, not fancy but interesting enough elementary battle system. The story is just OK. The quality of the game is actually increasing as you move from the first main city to the second one. So if you feel a bit tired after the first one or two days, I would recommend you to keep playing for a while.

    About the gacha system:
    In the single-player gameplay, you won't encounter any pay-wall where you have to pay to overcome the difficulty. And if you are not interested in online content you can simply leave the game until the next main story update. But of course, having more characters will create more variety in your combo and bring more fun. However, the drop rate is relatively low so I would recommend either you stay F2P (monthly card), or invest at least 150$ and use them in the correct banner.

    This game in general is ground-breaking in the area of gacha games. It annoies both the cellphone game producer as well as cellphone platforms in China (because Mihoyo refuses to accept their crazy 50% profit sharing rule). This is the reason why there were and will be a crazy amount of hater leaving 0 points. I really feel bad about it.    … Expand

    The first ~30h was really solid, if you enjoyed the exploration of BotW you’ll definitely enjoy these hours. However, once you’ve explored the whole map, there’s not much left for you to do.

    IMO the best way to play Genshin is to explore everything and then wait for the next map updates (maybe every 4-6 months?).

    Genshin impact has many towns that waiting for the player to roaming. Each town has their own culture the NPC in the town wearing that town garment and the building that show you the culture of each town. Outside the town has many chests to unlock by killing monsters or finishing the puzzles.
    Genshin impact has many fun things to do. Such as abyss mode defeat all the monster by the time-limited. Clearing dungeon to get the artifacts as a reward. Story quest dive into the story to know what’s going on in the town.
    The storyline focusing on the twins traveler who arrives tayvet attacked by the goddess and her/his sibling has been captured. So that he has to find her sibling and wandering in town to town to find the clue.
    The most attractive thing about this game is the elemental fusion. Each character has their element and some of them come with the skill that utilizes the element easily. The elemental fusion amplifies big damage. For example, put a fire on enemies then following with the hydro skill will cause a vaporize which can do a lot more damage than usual. So the player tries to build another character to make a combo.
    This game is all free but it’s the gacha game so that means everything is on your luck. The highest rarity is 5-star character and 5-star weapon which only get it from the gacha and unfortunately, the rate for 5 stars is only 0.6 percent. That was incredibly low. Anyways the game can not be that cruel they guarantee that you will get the 5 stars for sure when you reach the 90th rolls.    … Expand

    Amazing RPG. It's just absolutely beautiful. The missions are fun, there are many things to explore, many characters to change and to level up... It's open exploration at its best. I'm really enjoying it.

    The game is just great. Especially if you don't forget that it's free! I just sympathize with all the disgruntled critics who sit there for days trying to collect all the characters and spending thousands of dollars. You have clearly forgotten what it is to play and enjoy.

    pros:
    - it's free
    - nice graphics
    - interesting plot
    - frequent updating
    - various events

    minuses:
    - people paying real money have an advantage. after 9 months of playing I am able to do what whales do after 2.
    - the game is constantly evolving, but it's easy to just do everything that is available at a given moment and suddenly the game becomes boring (I note that a year ago the game gave a whopping 25 hours of play, now it is enough for twice as much, so the perspective changes depending on when it started to play)
    - AR lv, after reaching level 50, there is no difference if you have 55 or 60. zero significant rewards for reaching level 55 or 60, which is not easy.
    - 5 star weapons are beyond the reach of FvP players

    People complaining that the game is unfair and unless you pay real money you cannot compete with whales, they probably played a different game. You can easily do everything only with a team consisting of a 4-star character. it just takes more time to get it.

    gatcha system, it works like in any game of this type, people are greedy, they want every character, unfortunately without paying it is necessary to think what character they want, what they need and focus on those few.

    I recommend the game. the best I have known for a tablet for years, 10/10 in this category.    … Expand

But this is also a trap-the aggressive payment system will make people unconsciously addicted to it, so please play moderately and consider your financial strength before paying!
    For the game itself, the early experience is indeed very good-beautiful character design, excellent scene design, and beautiful music are all intoxicating. But after level 30, the game content is very poor-very, very poor.
    Why is this happening? Allow me to explain to everyone. On the one hand, this game is a free game that is constantly updated, and there will be a lot of game content waiting to be updated in the future (at a very slow speed, which is unpleasant). In addition, the developer of this game encountered financial difficulties in the later stage of its development, so it had to release the game in advance.
    In short, the future of this game is bright, but at the moment, I can hardly call it a good game.    … Expand

This game is packed full of soul and it is fascinating to play. I have played BOTW, which this is often compared to. Not only is this free and available on all platforms, it is also clearly a better game. Like Assassin's Creed II compared to the first AC. It expands on everything that made BOTW good, while forging its own unique identity as a game. I highly recommend it.

    I am aware of the reasons people have to dislike this game, and I personally think they are petty or downright sad. One is the monetization system. I have never spent any money in this game, and I have not only acquired the six characters you get for free, but gained three awesome characters through the gacha system. I expect that by the time I use up all of the free opportunities the game gives you, I will have at least a couple more characters. But even that isn't necessary. If you're paying hundreds of dollars to acquire one specific character, and you get upset at the odds you face, that's really all on you. The monetization system is not in your face at all.

    The other flaw people bring up is the end game resin system, which "limits" your daily gameplay. I personally will never experience this flaw, because of the way I take my time with the game. Even the four daily missions, which don't take any resin, take me over an hour to complete because I am constantly discovering interesting details and challenges on the way. I've been playing an hour a day since day one, and I'm not even halfway through the main story, which will be massively expanding as time goes on. I guess this game is meant for players like me, rather than people who are utterly task-oriented. Me, I'm just trying to enjoy this incredible free game. The other day, I walked across the map to Liyue Harbor just to explore and talk to NPCs on the way. Every little dialogue is well written and that harbor is fun to walk around in without any quest or goal in mind. This is why I feel bad for people who get frustrated at the endgame. I don't think they are appreciating what they have in front of them. What is even the point of playing just for the purpose of upgrading your character's stats? Do those stats help you have fun in any way? Is that just the default way you orient yourself in life, for no reason? There's enough customization and optimization at play without needing to constantly "level up". That said, Mihoyo is looking into changing the resin system, so it won't matter soon.    … Expand

    4. Addictive, there's TONS of contents inside this game, which could take weeks to complete if you're a casual gamer. I've always found myself lost in the world doing a lot of different stuffs.

    Cons:
    1. No custom key binding --> hope they fix this in future updates
    2. Artifact enhancement is not really optimized (cannot see what artifact are we sacrificing)
    3. No equipment lock
    4. Demanding phone spec
    5. This game murders your phone battery

    Solid game. I see all these complaints about "pay to win" but if you actually play the game, you will know that any character in this game can carry you through the end game. Plus you get a generous amount of pulls for free which means you will likely get more characters to help you along the way.

After about 2-3 weeks of play, I got my first five star. Additionally, I’ve discovered this game is completely playable with only 4 star characters. as some 4 stars are better than even most other 5 stars, in Bennett and Fischl. Those two characters also have guaranteed drops, the shop and an event respectively. With all this said, I think this game can be improved a lot to be beginner friendly, as the artifact system is a little complicated and hard to master. In the end, I think this is a really good game with good potential, but it needs to be tweaked a little bit, so it can be better accepted in the gaming community.… Expand

    Whatever your preconceptions may be about a free-to-play gacha game made in China it’s nothing short of stunning, presenting you with a sprawling Zelda-esque open world to explore, the green grass and blue skies looking beautiful thanks to console-grade production values. Even the monetisation isn’t too in-your-face, although it does eventually start to get a bit grindy in the late game. Genshin Impact is easily the most accomplished and alluring Zelda-alike available for mobiles, easily outstripping paid-for rival Oceanhorn and its sequel.

    Genshin Impact is easily the most impressive free-to-play game on mobile. It offers such a rich world that rivals those of ambitious console and PC games while pacing its content such that mini play sessions using touch controls feel satisfying and worthwhile. There's nothing about Genshin Impact's business model that is new or praiseworthy, but it thankfully doesn't get in the way of enjoying what is otherwise a legitimately amazing open-world adventure.

    Genshin Impact is an amazing open-world adventure that draws heavily on both its Breath of the Wild and anime inspirations to create something truly special. Even if the gacha model introduces some undesirable level grinding deeper in, the excellent combat, addictive exploration, and beautiful world make this one of the most exciting games I've played all year.
