    Ten 1 por tu aniversario, y agradece que te doy 1. Juego completamente bonito al comienzo para luego terminar siento un juego repetitivo que solo entras dia tras dia a hacer diarias y en vez de enganchar a su comunidad a seguir jugando en su aniversario prefieren pasar completamente de ella.

    I'll only give it 1 star because of the amazing soundtrack produced by Yu-Peng Chen.
    Beautiful game ruined by a greedy company who ignores their playerbase and keeps introducing underwhelming units and mechanics to the game, which is already stale by itself.

    i could have rated this game 7 easily , but sadly, the company behind this , greed-Hoyo as you should call them, ruined everything. Resin wall (pay for more !), gacha game, no endgame , players complaints ignored, 1 year anniversary mess, and more...

Скомканный и неинтересный сюжет, персонажи сделанные для выкачивания денег (для играбельности нужно получить персонажа 2-3 раза, зависимость от сигнатурного оружия), последним же гвоздем в крышку гроба стала годовщина игры. А имеено отсутствие наград, 10 роллов входящих в стандартное количество примогемов за патч. Казалось бы, можно сгладить углы и вернуть расположение людей выдав хотя бы уникальный косметический предмет, не повлияющий на прибыль, но нет. Так же полностью отсутствует контакт с комьюнити, полное игнорирование всех проблем, жалоб и нулевая отдача на неистовый праведный гнев своих игроков.
    Я люблю эту игру, она прекрасна. И мне больно наблюдать за тем, во что ее превращают своими последними действиями разработчики.    … Expand

    I started playing 2 days ago because I heard there will be an anniversary event with free ingame items, so this would be the best time to start playing. Was extremely disappointed to see that the company ignores their player base and provides minimal anniversary rewards compared to other games in its category.

They have spent 10 million dollars in renting genshin tags for twitter for a single day instead of actually rewarding the playerbase with in game items, how scummy can Mihoyo ever be?

I played all the way from the first day until August without droping a single $. Open world, being expandable with each patch (one and a half month between each one) and great combat system with different elements to use, so there are different approaches u can use to deal damage. Enjoyable story, and if it keeps getting the hype it had for the past year, we have 4 or 5 more regions to be implemented, which means a gigantic map to explore and loot chests, different puzzles, and good side stories to play. Some dude said that he reached Adventure Rank 38 and that he was endgame (XD) but the grinding starts when you reach AR 45, when you start paying attention to stats and Artifacts, the ones that let you do real damage and challenge endgame features, like Spiral Abyss (a kind of endless dungeon that resets every 15 days).
    Let's say "bad things": Of course we are talking that this game has gacha features, so there will be characters that you won't be able to get in the short term, but the more common characters that you will use are almost the same in terms of raw damage and being fun to play. So, if you like just to explore and battle doing elemental reactions, and don't mind getting all the d*mn characters in the game, we just get (considering is free to play with these gacha features) one of the top 3 games of 2020, and being one of my favourite options in 2021. Don't rate as a 10 because of course everybody will want to get a 5 star character, 'cause of exclusiveness or whatever, so the game has a system that every 90 wishes you do, you will always get a 5 star before the 91st wish, which i think is great when you compare it to other gacha games. Of course is an anime-styled game, so people may not be so eager to play something like this, and is completely understandable, so it's not for everyone.
    So overall, if i had to say, "Would i recommend you to play this game?" Absolutely yes.    … Expand

    The game looks really nice, however, it doesn't support the invert Y-axis option, thus it's not playable for me. I tried to get used to non-inverted mouse, but I've given it up after a while and uninstalled the game. I don't believe a game in 2021 doesn't have such an essential accessibility option, it's a blocker for significant minority of players.

С каждым новым патчем придумываются новые способы выкачки последних денег из ваших кошельков.
    Геймплей в этом казино, представляет из себя ежедневный вход в игру, выполнение 4ех ежедневных квеста и слив смолы за пару тройку походов в данж. ВСЕ! 15-20 минут геймплея в день. Главная проблема этой игры-гребанная смола(анало энергии) без которой ты абсолютно ничего не можешь сделать. Либо жди либо донать, альтернатив нет. Терь пару слов о сюжете и лоре. Сюжет детский и абсолютно не интересный, за персонажей вообще не переживаешь т к с ними точно ничего не случится, максимум пару синяков. Куча клише и роялей присутствуют. Разрабы не развивают ни лор персонажей ни лор мира в целом.

    Never seen such a greedy game in terms of monetization. It's great, but all that makes it great is absolutely not original and doesn't even do anything to mask it or somehow alternate from source of "inspiration" and just overall always less in comparison.

    I'll give it to them, the map is big. But the exploration feels absolutely pointless.
    I feel like there's ultimately no point in exploring the world. I feel like everything looks the same.
    The elements feel very generic, although they really encouraged me to switch between characters often.
    I had high hopes for this game, but now I feel the absolute opposite. I think my relationship with this game might be even described as hatred.
    Especially with the company "miHoYo". I really hate them.
    And the story? Oh boy... So bad.
    The dialogues are so boring and irritating. The characters are unbearable, their personality is probably the worst thing. Especially the personality of "Diluc" and "Venti.
    The game is very easy to master, and I got to AR 30 very very quickly.
    The plot is boring and not engaging AT ALL.
    The combat system could be interesting, but it's so simple...
    The loot boxes (In this game their name is "Wishes") should be banned. I hate them very much.
    Why can't I try to get a character that I actually want by spending time on interesting quests instead of just buying some currency out of the Shop and get a completely random character? Why?
    I don't get it. That could be a big factor in encouraging you to explore. You will actually need to do some work to get your character...
    Let me tell you something, I really checked it out. Most players of this game spent at least 30 USD on this. Since when have you heard about someone spending their money on microtransactions in the game BOTW?
    The map is boring and the areas are very similar visually.
    The game platformer elements are one of the worst stuff I've ever seen. This is not platforming. You are just climbing on stuff. That's abominable.
    I hate this game. I think it's terrible.
    I'm not even going to get into the 60FPS frame rate cap or the optimization problems.
    Some people will adore this game, and I just can't think about how can anyone look and play this and have a good time. Do not waste your time. This game might be addicting, but don't let it fool you. It's terrible.    … Expand

    A review from AR 57 player. The story is far from decent, feel too rushed. Gacha system is rigged, you have to spent at least $100 to get a 5 star (chance 50:50 to get promoted character) or $200 to get a guaranteed promoted 5 star.

I'll list the criticisms that I think are reasonable.

    The gacha system is expensive. If you want to pay for a 5-star character, you need to spend ~$200 in general, or you might need to save 2 months of in-game rewards. The gacha system also somehow ruins the immersion. In general games, you can build up relationships with characters. The game will reward you by giving them as playable characters. But in gacha games, you don't. You might unlock characters in gacha even you have no idea who he/she is. You might also want some character because you have a good time with him in the story, but the game says no due to the stupid RNG generator.
    The progression system is really bad for hard-core players. Everything requires resin, or stamina if you want to call it. You need them to level up your character. You need them to level up your items. You need them to earn in-game currency. Without it, your exploration in the game does little to the progression. Of course, you can stay in the open world, go around different places, enjoy the scene, and kill some enemies, just like the end game of Breath of the Wild. But it is still annoying. Since there is actually a lot of things the game persuades you to do, but it also forces you to stop. If you want to get a better experience, then pay for it. Unfortunately, this is the natural logic of F2P games that can never be get rid of.

    Then why do I still give it 9/10? The simple answer is the overall quality of this game is too good to ignore the cons.
    The scene is good. The music is awesome. The combat is fun. The open world design is impressive. And all those contents are actually for free. Believe it or not, the best part of this game is not the expensive character, not the more expensive weapon, but the free content. Sometimes I do not understand why this game gives us its best for free but charges us a lot for the worst. For anyone who wants to enjoy this game, you do not need to pay a single dime, literally. The 5-star characters and weapons are expensive, but you do not need any of them. The game will give you a decent amount of 4-star characters, and those are no less fun than any overpriced 5-star. Exploration in the open world, puzzles and mini-games, and a not-bad storyline are already better than many games that cost you $60. There is no reason I do not recommend this game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Who would not say what, but the game is just a parody of Zelda.
    I lost about a year at the game simply because I had a lot of free time. If you don’t have a lot of free time, it’s better not to play. The gameplay is nothing like a gameplay, the combat mechanics are outstanding, you are more motivated to explore the world by freebies than by the desire to see something new.
    The game is one big clicker. The only reason for the game afloat is regular events (which do not represent anything of themselves) that give you primo gems. The donation in the game is really very insignificant and you can knock out anything if you take a lot of attention to the game. The problem is that for a year now, there is nothing to do in the game. There is such a place in the game as an abyss, which periodically updates the 9-12 floors on which you can play, but until you become strong enough you will not pass them, and this, like a year ago and now, is the only indicator of your progress in the game. If you go through the abyss once, then you go through the game. New characters simply have nowhere to use, you can, of course, replace them playing the abyss over and over again with different characters, but the abyss is nothing more than just another source of primo gems for the player, there is nothing interesting in it, it is just another source of freebies, and so on almost a year has passed, and no new activities have appeared in the game.
    The impudence of the developers prompted me to write this review. The developers of the game are so greedy that they could not assemble teams of beta testers for the game in a year, and throughout the year they constantly accuse ordinary players of leaks, to whom they themselves provide access. The fines are not small I want to say. Now, due to the fact that this is an indie company with completely mediocre leaders who for all the time could not even figure out the balance of their game (there is a character in the game that makes you almost immortal), both ordinary players and those who tried, perhaps even more of the developers themselves, I'm talking about the Honey Impact site they've closed without any warnings. Developers have been pursuing such a policy for a long time and simply take away what is already ready, as it was with the groups that are transferred to them.
    There was another incident when players were waiting for a character, but they were nerfing him on purpose at the moment he came out, but they were silent in order to increase sales. In general, I will probably sell the account    … Expand

    1st off let's focus on the current issue. The state of the entire element, and the newest Raiden Shogun character. Electro is trash as an element from the ground up. There are standout characters, but they would be better in ANY other element. The Archon of electro is disappointing as a support, taking up an inordinate amount of field time for performance that can be achieved by other batteries, and hits like a wet paper sack, unless of course you shell out hundreds of dollars for multiple copies of her. There are also pretty credible allegations of false advertising with her release.

    That's what this game is. Intentionally designed so that you spend money, and purposefully crowded with bad, misleading and deceptive mechanics. Oh there's a problem after a release, oh it was a translation error. Every time.

    Primogems for starters cost a TREMENDOUS amount more money than they should. We're talking 1600 for a single 10 pull, of which you might acquire one, 4 star character. A 5 star will cost you 90 pulls. You won't even get that many pulls from spending 100$ on the game.

    The company behind it is NOTORIOUSLY stingy for a gacha company. Literally they will mess up a character with deceptive advertising or mistranslation, and apologize with not even enough currency for 1 pull, and their anniversary, typically a time when Gacha companies thank their players for spending an entire year with them, and seek to get new players?

    A single 10 pull. Yep that's right. A single 10 pull.

    The game also has a resin system. Playing normally you can finish the quests and all content to date in probably around 3 months. After that? Enjoy playing for about 15-30 minutes a day, if that. They do this because, surprise surprise, you can refill that with more PREMIUM CURRENCY.

    Oh what's that, everything in the game other than nominal amounts including xp, gold, artifacts, weapons, etc, is all tied to resin or the premium currency?

    Yes that's correct, you can't even properly level your characters without spending resin, or of course using the cash shop. Monsters will give you 19-20 xp each at the HIGHEST world level. The xp and mora off of monsters is so low I doubt most players even KNOW you can level up on the actual content instead of the items you can get from running leylines.

    The gacha rates are actually very bad too, and don't get me started on the weapon banner, which is a total scam.

    Not to mention they have routinely been locking 5 star characters that are already extremely expensive, behind massive constellation (multiple copies) paywalls. They will release a character with massive problems (see raiden) and oh well she can be okay, if you get constellation 2, only 100 more dollars if you are lucky. Unacceptable. It's okay for multiple copies to offer a bit of power, but when it comes down to releasing an incomplete, poorly designed broken character and locking a functional one behind a paywall? That should be actually illegal.

    It's honestly a masterclass in predatory game design.

    Artifact rng is also a MASSIVE problem in the game, and it's been proven time and time again that the rolls are actually rigged towards useless or mostly useless stats (flat def, def % hp and HP %) rather than the rolls you actually need, artificially lengthening the life of the game, oh and the resin you'll have to refresh if you want to actually yknow, get a good roll sometime this year. All with that aforementioned premium currency.

    If that wasn't enough, in an interview they literally said they don't pay attention to the west. Now I get China is their largest market (they are a chinese company after all), and Japan is pretty up there, but the west is sitting around 25% of their revenue too, and growing rapidly. The minute a company basically admits they don't care what a large portion of their customer base thinks? It's not a company worth doing business with.

    Honestly once a competitor arrives, Genshin is gonna get completely stomped. All of these problems are of course fixable, but the company does not care. Avoid this game.    … Expand

Micro-transactions are another problem in of itself. In conclusion, for a free game, it's surprisingly well-made, but the gameplay itself contains death-inducing levels of boring. A 2 out of 10 for the visuals and musical composition. I can see why some may like Genshin, for its slow-paced gameplay, but I think it's fairly lazy game design. Even the music falls victim to making my head hurt. After about an hour in-game, the ambient music just dug into my ears, and just found myself taking off my headphones every so often.… Expand

It's a eternal loop. The multiplayer is total scam.You can't explore some parts of game since you have not unlocked key features. Thus to increase xp you have to farm but normal battles harly give you any xp. To get new characters from free passes you have to unlock floors in dungeons which is impossible with low level characters without lots of food items.Again answer is long days of farming.

I am in severe debt because of this game. Anyway this is my favorite game

    jokes aside, this is genuinely one of the best games i think.
    most of the negative reviews are in reference to the resin system and the gacha rates, so i'll start out with a response to that
    resin system:
    for those who don't know, resin is what allows you to collect rewards from bosses and various challenges. Most of these rewards cannot be farmed elsewhere, with a few exceptions. At capacity, you have 160 resin. Bosses take up 40, some weekly bosses take 30, and other challenges take 20. As a late game player, (AR 56, halfway to 57), my experience is that using up all of the daily resin + the daily tasks, commissions, takes roughly an hour to an hour and a half. If you need a lot of a certain material, it can be inconvenient, which, yeah, i get that. However, giving a whole game 0-1/10 because of THAT is petty and immature to me. In my opinion, I like the resin system. I think it helps the game stay balanced in that no one can grind for a really long time to be lightyears ahead of the general playerbase. It also, for me at least, makes sure I'm not at my computer for 48 hours straight. I feel like its a healthy amount of time to play. Not to say, that the things you use resin for are the only thing you can do in Genshin. Far from it, actually. There's frequent events, a housing system, and a gigantic world to explore. There's no need to rush things.
    Secondly, the gacha rates:
    I would like to clarify that I have made it my personal goal to get every character in the game. My reasoning for this is personal and I will not discuss it. However, that said, Genshin is by NO means a pay to win game. Every character, including the starter characters, are good. It genuinely just depends on how you build them. Five star characters are nice, yes, but in the meta, they aren't much better than any of the four stars or starter characters you can get. I will fight ANYONE on this. You by no means have to get a 5 star character or weapon to be good at and enjoy this game. You could complete all the game has to offer at the time of this review without ever pulling on a banner.
    I feel like the people complaining about the gacha rates have never played a gacha game before. Genshin is EXCEEDINGLY generous for a gacha game. The currency needed is not hard to earn by playing the game, through exploration, events, achievements, etc etc. As someone who has spent a sizable sum of money on this game, however, I do have to admit that buying the currency needed for the gacha is pretty costly. However, please again consider that this is entirely optional, and through the currency you obtain in-game you will most likely pull at LEAST one five-star by AR35.
    As a personal side note, I do not recommend attempting to get every character in game, like I have. I have my reasons, which are very personal, but I do not recommend anyone do the same. Keep in mind your party size in game is only 4, and its not very likely that you're going to use every character that you get. (from personal experience)

    Genshin is a stunning game. It has a beautiful world and lore, and characters that are just. excellent.
    The combat system is easy to learn, but takes a bit of time to master. It's fast paced and rewards players that have read into character skills/ taken the time to build a character. The environments are incredibly fun to explore, and personally it's one of my favorite parts of the game. The periodic updates to the map and the additions of events and characters gives me something to look forward to. However, if you're the type that gets frustrated when the entirety of the game isn't out at once, I wouldn't be able to recommend Genshin to you yet. Only 3 of the 7 regions are out as of me writing this review. Despite this, though, there is never really a lack of content. Events are frequent and new features are added all the time. My personal favorite is the teapot, because I can spend hours decorating my little home and farming the serotonin I get when I make it look nice. :)

    tl;dr:
    good game i enjoy
    dont spend money though (you dont have to)
    if you dont like waiting for content and you dont see it as looking forward to something (i understand) but as a frustrating thing maybe come back in 10ish years when everything is out :)
    the 0-1 star reviews are kinda petty and dumb tbh

    Vamos começar com a gameplay: ela é repetitiva e chata, você não sente prazer matando os inimigos, que por sinal são um CTRL + C, CTRL + V dos Bokos, porém mais magros; eles não tem uma variedade grande, é fácil matar eles e você não sente nenhum desafio, somente quando vai lutar com algum boss de level mais alto que seu personagem (e mesmo assim é fácil, eu matei um boss lvl 30 com a Amber no lvl 12).
    Vendo os trailers, deu a entender que o jogo era focado na exploração, assim como no BoTW, mas a diferença é que não tem NADA para explorar, apenas lugares que são vazios e idênticos uns com os outros.
    No jogo você basicamente anda, escala e mata inimigos aleatórios. Sem contar da limitação de jogo, que logo após completar o ato 1 do prólogo, te obriga a upar seu AR até o 18, o que além de ser difícil (no sentido ruim), é MUUITO demorado, fazendo com que você tenha que ir atrás de inimigos que são os mesmos durante as 30 horas de gameplay.
    Eu não recomendo NINGUÉM jogar, procure outra coisa que realmente vale a pena, pois este aqui faz você abandonar todos seus outros jogos para focar 100% nele.    … Expand

    It's dead! The greed of the developers killed the game! After you reach max level loot-drop rate doesn't increase (if not decreased), also became almost impossible to draw more characters even WITH donating.

    I feel like every single bad review is focused on the same SINGLE aspect of the game. And it is called "Constellation/Refine". To explain to whoever is thinking of playing this game, there are quite a few "parallel power systems" on the game. A weapon, for instance, has its level (and upgrading is totally free, requires no real money) and a "Refine level" (which u upgrade by sacrificing a duplicate of the weapon. The only way to get reliable duplicates is through loot boxes). The same goes for characters (though they have more parallel power systems). But here is the caught: you DO NOT NEED max Refine level to play even the hardest part of the game. It is not required. So I have to explicitly point out that this is a F2P game and if your desire to min/max is so strong, then pay the ridiculous amount of money to min/max ALL characters (again NOT NEEDED). It feels unfair to give a 0 or 1 based on constellation/refine. I do agree that it is frustrating to not be able to have character X or Y due to in-game currency being locked out (but, again, it is a F2P game). Regarding "energy" limit, people seem to think time-gate is bad... I think a bit of it (not saying Genshin has the perfect amount) is GREAT... cause it keeps people from grinding the game and finishing it in 24hrs.

    Genshin can be played in different ways. You can grind and max out chars to see big dmg numbers, you can spend hours exploring (like Skyrim, which costs money btw), you can dive deep into intricate lore with meaningful side quests (like MMOs, again... money). You can casually play and slowly build up a good team FOR FREE while exploring the current patch/zone (in a seasonal manner, much like PoE). This game is GOOD and can be played casually. Don't let min/max culture keep you away from trying the game.

    Regarding the grind aspect, Genshin was designed so that you could spend a lot of time on it (much like WoW, FF14, MOBAs) and it is something to consider if you want to farm some types of in-game currency. But I play it like PoE, a seasonal think. The third MAIN zone has just been out and there is more than 100 hours of game (basic exploration, main quest, and side characters story quest) to be done. So, I'll again just make it clear:

    You don't f****** need ALL legendary characters to get AND/OR max constellation/refine on itens to play this game. It is mostly single-player. Nobody, but you, will see how much dmg you do.

    Nobody cares. You should just care to see if you can beat the challenge. And, nowadays, it is GOOD that some challenges take time. People want to buy a game and beat it as fast as possible to jump to another game. Just be chill/casual and juggle between a few games. Genshin can be one of those games for the price of 0 dollars.

    8/10
    -1 cause I also dont like gacha systems (but at least this one has a scalling odds subsystem)
    -1 cause they are yet to re-release a character through loot boxes (its dumb and new players, currently, 0 chances of getting "old" characters)    … Expand

    I really don't understand why this game is so popular. The gameplay is boring, the plot is weak. Why do you need a permanent Internet connection, I don't understand. Okay, if it was an MMO, but all interaction is cooperative games with friends...

    As a Genshin Impact player since the release, I've dropped the game since January 2021 for a couple of reasons:
    - The game has a terrible Gacha System, it is even worse than EA loot box, you need to pull 90 times to guarantee a 5-star character, but here is the bad news: you only have 50% of that 5-star to be your favorite characters, lots of time you will be surrounded by unfavourite    As a Genshin Impact player since the release, I've dropped the game since January 2021 for a couple of reasons:
    - The game has a terrible Gacha System, it is even worse than EA loot box, you need to pull 90 times to guarantee a 5-star character, but here is the bad news: you only have 50% of that 5-star to be your favorite characters, lots of time you will be surrounded by unfavourite 5-star characters, some even useless, some even not in your taste and you will leave them in the "Storage". To have 90 pulls, you need to pay approximately 200 US dollars, and the game still does not guarantee your wanting characters, you will need to pay another 200 US dollars to pull 90 times more to guarantee the "chosen one". For F2P, you will need to play every day for a whole month to have 90 pulls, and if you are not lucky enough, you will need to grind for another next month. The rate of 5-star character is 2%, so if the system works properly then the guarantee at 60 pulls is perfectly reasonable, but no, Mihoyo decided to TRIPLE that number.

    - The second issue with the game is the unbalance of characters. You may say "Hey but it is clearly true for every game to have higher rare units stronger than the lower ones right?". The reality in the game is different: There are multiple 4-star characters, who are supporters, are even stronger than the 5-star version of them. For example: Barbara is a 4-star healer and she did equally, if not better than 5-star healer Qiqi. Another example is 5-star "electro" Keqing, she is terrible weak that except someone like her design and her voice, no one uses her, even Keqing-hardcore are desperately demanding miHoyo to buff Keqing but after half of a year, nothing changes, except they bring ANOTHER 5-STAR "ELECTRO" CHARACTER who is straightly stronger and Keqing, another bad news for Keqing is her "signature weapon" is now being used by the new character "Baal", when something is called "signature" in the game, it means that "signature" item will boost the character to the highest potential power but now, Keqing can't even have a proper "Signature weapon". The "imbalance" of "elements" is also a big problem too, "electro" is too weak because they don't have a strong DPS (Keqing is too weak though), the "elemental reaction" also does not favor "electro" and when I said "not favor", I mean it is completely useless: You have a reaction of "hydro" + "electro" deal little amount of damage, you have "pyro" (fire) + "electro" deal "pyro damage", you have "cryo" (ice) + "electro" reduce enemies' physical resistance. None of them truly increase the electro DPS. While look at Pyro reaction with "Cryo", the damage output will be double, I know it feels crazy but yes if that ability, which having a pyro element, attacks into a "cryo" enemy, the damage will be DOUBLE. Another problem about Genshin is unbalanced lore, some characters never find any show: Xinyan is a severe case: she has dark brown skin, her style is rock and she finds nowhere in the story, one small side quest, that's all, after 6 months, after a whole 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5... 2.0 patch, Xinyan is still nowhere, no one plays her, no one raises her, just because she is rock style? she is black skin? (Not gonna lie Keqing although has "white skin" and kind of not accepting the "Vision" so maybe that's the reason why Mihoyo does not buff her?) (Vision is a "gift from God" to the "chosen one" so they could use "element" according to that god. Keqing's lore describes her as a hard-working assistant and never accepts talent or god's gift, she even tries to destroy the "vision".)

    - The third reason is the scale system: you have 240 "energy" per day, and you need to farm a lot of "dungeon" to have material for your characters: you need around 2 weeks to a month of grinding to have a "proper" gear for ONE character, the upgrade system is also RNG, some cases report no useful gear for 2 months. After finishing the main quest, explore the whole map, you will spend 2 weeks to a month grinding and waiting for the next patch and you need to do it every day, for Genshin Players, they can't bear seeing "energy" full because each "energy" is so valuable, but also, forcing you to play the game even when there is nothing new, yes, you still need to grind every day.

    The character design is also under criticism:
    + The characters are mainly "white skin", "big eyes", "similar characterism", "similar skill move set", "similar style",etc.
    + The future characters are always stronger, more op, more relevant than the previous characters: future characters also have stronger DPS, stronger healer, stronger support kit, weaker weakness, or even no weakness at all. The marketing strategy of miHoyo is terrible: they create more OP characters so players will spend more money to get them. In Genshin, you can "promote" a character by using multiple copies of themselves. The maximum "promotion" is C6, which means you need 6 copies to maximize it = 2000$.    … Expand

    genshin impact is a very boring game where the main task is to find a brother or sister, but the fact is that we are sent somewhere and given additional quests that are in no way connected with the main plot in the form of a grind for several hours a day for the sake of 30-minute gameplay, of which 2/3 is dialogue and a little interesting gameplay.

    miHoYo created a vast beautiful world, I lost count how many times my jaw was dropping while exploring Liyue.

    I love the characters. Even though each type has its own mechanics mastering them and building them is part of the enjoyment so you will always have fun. Top tier waifus:
    Lisa (Ara, Ara…)
    Mona (Perfect buns)
    Noelle (Naughty of closet + the girl that you end up marrying one day)
    Barbara (Ufff... + the girl that you end up marrying one day)
    Ningguang (Professional model legs)

    *Enjoyment: 9/10*
    ===============
    Clearing domains with your build up character is really satisfying. I only wish the bosses that you find in the outside world would've being related to the story instead of just being "there" waiting to be beaten. The lack of toxic players amazes me, I've never encounter one and mostly all of them are like :3

    Really nice and wholesome experiences in co-op. It makes me wonder what is the game demographics.

    *Overall: 7*
    ===========
    This is a great game, which unfortunately its censorship and gacha mechanics ruin it. I wouldn't mind paying 40 or 50 box for this game, it deserves it, but seeing people paying from 5k to 10k to get the characters that they want… that's just insane! No game is worth that money no matter how beautiful its world is or how great its characters are.
    If you go for the F2P route you won’t be disappointed, the game will be more challenging but it will feel more rewarding. Just please bear in mind that it might take up to a year to get the characters that you want because you will have to grind and grind hard.    … Expand

    Genshin is a game that will lay upon you a story, a well designed world, and the promise of a good open world gacha game only to lead you to the realization that it might as well have been a pipe dream.

    The rates are terrible, power creep is constant, the only thing the grind leads to in the end is your progress "grinding to a halt", everything starts to feel barren and you'll regret the time you spent getting to that point.

    But that's just on the surface: let's talk about some mechanics that are also not fun to deal with.

    Resin. The generic energy system that locks meaningful rewards behind a gate. In a 3d open world game.
    Might not sound that bad right? Well, let's just say any "meaningful" grind is locked behind this resin mechanic.
    Cool weekly boss fights? Considerable amounts of resin required.
    Currency used for upgrades? Considerable amounts of resin required.
    EXP for your characters? Considerable amounts of resin required.

    Combat. Combat becomes dull when you realize that most of your team will only be used to apply elemental statuses for combos (in the game's case they're elemental reactions).
    Use crowd control, group up enemies, apply 2 elements. Then boom. You win. Congrats.
    Bet you feel really proud of yourself.

    The Loot: Any actually useful loot will be obtained from the dungeons (that cost resin to enter), the bosses (that cost resin to claim the rewards you get for beating them), and the gacha (that costs the good ol' premium currency that is annoying to grind, or an obscene amount of money).
    Going around the world, opening chests, that's not gonna do as much as you'd hope in the end.

    That's not all but you get the point.

    I can't be arsed to keep going. There's so much I could complain about that I can't be arsed to write it all down.

    Though, despite that, I'm rating it fairly high considering how badly I think of the game?
    Well that's because early game felt great.. It was fun and not very repetitive.
    If you're gonna play this game for a few weeks and then stop permanently then the game's worth an 7-8. Maybe a 9 if you're into thirsting over virtual women, most of which look like like they belong in the 8-16 age group. Buuut it's not my job to judge.

    TL;DR
    Promising game when you start, fun for a few weeks at most, gets progressively more boring and grindy, the grind is restricted via an energy system, and rng will **** you over.    … Expand

    Сначала с плюсов:

    Боёвка отличная и эффектная, все внимации отлично проработаны. спустя огромное количество времени она не надоедает, а даже становится разнообразнее, благодаря новым персонажам.

    Открытый мир замечателен, он очень разнообразный. Ландшафты Мондштада и Ли Юе отлично подходят под их стихии - "Ветер" и "Земля".
    Он не самый большой, но он завершён только на 20%.

    Сам лор(не сюжет) может быть многим интересен

    Теперь про минусы:

    Самое простое - гринд. Гринд в играх это не плохо, но в геншине он ограничен так называемой "смолой", которая тратится на открытие сундуков с наградой. Артефактами, материалами прокачки перонажей и оружия, а так же еженедельными боссами.
    Всё это - банальная попытка заставить игрока заходить ежедневно, под угрозой упущенной выгоды.

    Донат. Он тут решает. Люди не вложившие ни копейки не смогут получить более сильных персонажей(Да, все персонажи хороши, но одни слабее других, и на одних нужно меньше гриндить), да даже 4х нужно будет долго выбивать(Сожелею всем у кого нет C1 Беннета). О хорошем оружии они могут даже не мечтать, крафтовые да черногорские. Даже банальный Ржавый лук будет праздником.
    А донатерам подкуточка :)
    Эксклюзивные 5* персы, которые f2p могут получить только каждый второй-третий баннер.
    А если понадобился и Торталия, и сразу же Чжун Ли после него, то иди донать.
    Вот просто не советую донатить вообще в эту игру, (Да я батл пасс и карточку только покупаю, ничего страшного - очень знакомая мне фраза, да и люди у которых уже из-за этого зависимось от этой гачи)

    Ивенты ну очень скучные. Как бы разрабы не пытались, но они всё ещё интересны только наградой. Да и при том что сами эвенты - набор заданий, который поэтапно разблокируется через промежутки времени(что я говорил про упущенную выгоду?).
    Дополнительные ивенты - та же рутина, но меньше.

    Сюжет не впечатляет, есть пару моментов, по типу Двалина и Архонта вихрей что очень эффектны, но их мало. В основном сюжет умеренно спокоен и однотипен.

    Недостаток контента. На 50м ранге тебе нужно неделями гриндить на прокачку персонажей и крутки, ждя этого короткого изобилия в виде ивентов и новых обновлений, которые на этот момент игры интересны только наградой.

    Комьюнити. Оно не портит игру, но я просто не советую в него вступать.

    ...
    По итогу имеем человека, зашедшего в "среншин" "по рофлу", увидевшего там хороший открытый мир, интересную боёвку, не самые скучные квесты и милых тяночек. А через пол года он уже думает что гринд и донат это весело, и игра замечательная.    … Expand

    Rather than a typical online game, Genshin Impact resembles a traditional single-player jRPG with a real-time combat. For a free-to-play title it is very impressive, but turns out to be pretty derivative and quickly slumps into monotony. [13/2020, p.52]

    Overall, in spite of things that should bring Genshin Impact down, the game is so much fun to play that the negatives are ultimately minor gripes. [...] The gameplay is smooth and simplistic, and it works great on all platforms - though I’m still not sure why the PlayStation version can’t be linked to a Mihoyo account so I could play on my phone when I’m not at home (PS Vita version please??) but it’s a small gripe to an otherwise terrific game.
