    I hate this game. It’s such a money grab and they give you nothing in return. It could be a great game but the gacha mechanics is awful.

    This game is a **** car crash. It is made by incels for incels that have low standards. It is a poor mans zelda and has a multitude of glaring issues.
    1- The art direction, is a direct rip off of Zelda Breath of the wild to appeal to a wider audience because they cant design games for the lives of them. It is meh and uninspired as it is a clone.

    2- The voice acting is disgraceful and all voice actors should have been aborted. The dialogue is painful and makes me want to shoot myself. i was spamming the spacebar throughout the whole dull mess that is the tutorial.
    3- the fighting is dull and patheticly shallow, it does not feel like any effort was put in and is on par with most bargain bin mobile games. There is no ooph behind attacks and the camera feels floaty.
    4- It is an awful isekai that is on the same level with uninspired amines.
    5- The characters are walking archetypes and will make you want to pinch yourself to keep awake while they speak.
    I cannot bear to talk about this game anymore as it is physically painful to think about.    … Expand

    A generic gacha clone of Breath of the Wild. You might be thinking "HEY! isn't being inspired by a Zelda game a good thing?" Well, yes and no. in the right circumstance of creating something new and great yes but this isn't it. It's a copy of a popular game to sell gacha, nothing more.

You might be thinking "HEY! isn't being inspired by a Zelda game a good thing?" Well, yes and no. in the right circumstance of creating something new and great yes but this isn't it. It's a copy of a popular game to sell gacha, nothing more. Environments and mechanics were lifted straight out of BotW to sell this generic, low-key slot machine featuring poorly animated females.

    good:
    * Looks nice but that's a given since it's a clone of a good looking game
    * Element reactions are fun
    * Exploring has it's moments

    Bad:

    * lack of main story content

    * often, poor subtitles don't match what the characters are saying

    * cringe dialogue that is neither engaging or smart, really just grown people acting and sounding like children

    * MC is thousands of years old, was a powerhouse (loses his powers ala Samus) and yet acts and looks like a teenager without the street savviness you'd expect from someone that is thousands of years old

    * Everything is a grind-fest. Weapon? Grind materials, mora (in-game gold) and experience items. characters? skills? level up? food items? weapon refining? EVERYTHING is a soul-sucking grind-fest
    of multiple materials locked behind chambers only open certain IRL days of the week and costs insane amounts of mora so you'll constantly be grinding with minor returns. or you could grease the gears a little bit (or a lot) with some cold hard cash *nudge*nudge*.

    * co-op is a mess, want to play with just one friend? TOO BAD! we are sticking you with random people whether or not you like it! We'll also randomly drop people in mid-match for cannon fodder.

    * Low summon (aka gambling) rates. Ironically, the rates are so bad to get some animated boobs most weebs would probably have better luck IRL.

    * can someone explain why I need flowers to ascend a character to a new level? Do they eat the damn flowers?! None of this crap makes any sense. They didn't even try. You don't have 1000 masks of the many slain Hilichurls (which they have lowered rates on after all pre-mature ejaculation from weebs)? Too bad, now you can't be stronger.

    * The main point of the game (unfortunately) and the worst: boobs look like jello unmitigated by gravity so just standing still they are flying all over the place S E P A R A T E L Y. Again, cringe community proud of their pathetic cringe so don't bother trying to discuss this with anyone who identifies as Otaku or weeb. Imagine if they incorporated these unrealistic physics on a guys crotch. You'll have their two balls flying around just standing still. Hilarious...until the weeb community gets involved and does their cringe crap.

    * Otaku community. If you aren't one of them, you'll have a bad time interacting with the community. Every other sentence is blatant predatory and cringe. You'll never meet a group of more pathetic people proud of being sexual predators. What's worse, majority of characters are at least modeled after to be/act/look like teenagers or children to up the creep meter.

    * game gets a free pass to be **** because it's f2p and the target demographic (pathetic teens with no money and pathetic man-babies with no friends) eat this anime loli **** up.

    * main story quests are locked behind Adventure Rank (levels). there are only two main story arcs. the second one is an annoying long fetch quest. go here get this, bring this there, ad nauseam. The rest is just terrible filler junk that will have you roaming around looking for materials and treasure chests until you've lost your grip on reality and fun.

    * every sidequests is some pathetic sob story: "my daddy's gone I miss him...can you deliver this one flower to him thousands of miles away for 200 mora?"

    * Paimon

    * Limited interaction with the random people you find in the world. Just some basic dialogue usually.

    * Other thoughts: I wish there was more enemies vs enemies situations. It pretty much seems the entire world is out to get you. There are times you will fight treasure hoarders, Fatui and whopper flower all at once. Somehow, there is a secret pact that if they see you in the world they will team up to **** your **** up. Also, NPC friendlies don't react to their environment and are unaffected by enemies around them.

    all in all: it's everything you'd expect from a gacha, crappy rates, poor storytelling, all in a attempt to sell you some animated boobs. This game is the definition of the ongoing battle between the West vs East of gaming. This type of gaming is popular in Asian countries where "fun" is often times synonymous with "grind-fest" and misinterpreted as "rewarding". There's enough articles out there that go into depth about the split of the gaming community but you'll quickly see the fans of this title will be, by and large, Asian. Youtubers don't count as they are just following the money and are often paid advertisements promoting the **** out of this terrible game.    … Expand

    -The game's story is good.
    -The characters and its elemental resonance makes new meta in every update
    -Free to play-gacha based game
    -The negative comments mostly taked about resin, gacha system, empty world etc.. Honestly idc.. as long as it has anime tiddies.. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).. -The good thing, the developer made the pity system, so this game won't be a totally hell game..

    Despite the overwhelming hype for this game it was extremely underwhelming and gets very boring after only a short while, without falling for the gacha system and paying for characters the game leaves you with very little to do, even for a free game, it is pretty much a watered down Breath of the Wild without the beauty and charm that Breath of the Wild had

    Genshin Impact is a action/adventure game design mostly as a single player experience with coop if you like.

    Genshin Impact is a revolutionary game that has mobile game and single player/coop features.
    GI can be easily called AAA game and it's available for free with gotcha mechanics.
    In the moment I write this GI offers about 50-60 h of main story line and a lot of side and hours of exploration.

    I decided to write this opinion becouse a lot of people hate GI without a reason and understanding of it.
    So if you like anime design and open world games full of good story and exploration GI is a must play title, just remember it's gotcha game and don't believe haters who give this game below 6/10 they are just frustrated I don't really know what about.

The game offers great voice acting in 4 languages: Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and English. Which is nice to say the least.

    The graphics, the cel shaded art style, the musical score, and the overall look and feel of the game is awesome. The user interface and heads-up display do not feel cluttered and look gorgeous. The game is free to play by the way, but it doesn't make you feel like you're playing a free game. There are no ads (not even in-game pop ups) and frankly their "wish" system (Gacha) and shop doesn't even stand out in the menu. The game is also FREE TO PLAY FRIENDLY. You can play the game without having the need to spend a single dime to enjoy the game. The combat is good. The game encourages players to switch characters in and out mid combat by introducing a system of elemental reactions where each character offers a different element that can create fun and cool reactions when combined with another. The game is not without flaws. But I'll let you find those out for yourself. The game is FREE and is AWESOME. It's worth a try. The game is not without flaws.    … Expand

    Pros: The visuals look nice, and the dialogue can be funny at times.

    Cons: Gameplay aspects are mediocre, and the story has little substance; a recipe for hours upon hours of mind-numbing boredom.

    Summary: All-in-all, the game is alright if you like anime visuals and if you have plenty of time to waste. Personally, I'd rather spend my time playing something more interesting and unique.

I must admit that the graphics of the game are just gorgeous; an eye-opener on how jaw-dropping anime graphics can be in a 3D environment especially with its professional voice acting and decent storyline. Unfortunately, it is just corrupted and overshadowed by the imminent gacha system that the game's core system relies upon. Most of the time, players are just whining that they didn't get Diluc or Venti or whatever 5-star character that has humongous humabogolous breasts or generic lullaby """"cute"""" loli that fulfills the hilariously unbalanced meta of the game. Just like any other gacha game, balance doesn't exist. Meanwhile, the other part of the playerbase boasts about getting those meta characters either through sheer stupid luck or whaling their parents' inheritance. This game literally dictates the amount of dopamine you get just through luck. Get 5-star => dopamine overdose. Get 3-star weapon => depression.
    I would have much prefer if this game was a paid game at the cost of removing the tedious gacha system. And that would have been an excellent 10/10 game for me.

    Конечно, в начале игры всё дается довольно легко, персонажи и оружие не требуют тонны ресурсов для улучшения, и самих ресурсов у тебя в достатке. Но стоило только вдохнуть свежего воздуха, как тут же в камеру пускают газ.
    Смола: На ранних этапах игры все идет гладко, можно часами бродить по миру и на каждом углу находить сундуки, но даже 1500+ сундуков заканчиваются где-то к 35-40 рангу, и остается лишь ежедневная активность, а именно поручения и 3-4 раза сходить в подземелье, лишь бы потратить жалкие 160 смолы. 40 смолы на босса, 20 на подземелье, еще 60 на другого босса - смола тут, смола там, везде нужна смола, в игре почти нету активности где не нужно было бы использовать смолу, и как итог ты заходишь в игру только на 20 минут в день, после чего ждешь 8*160= 21 час 20 минут для того чтобы снова потратить смолу. И этот порочный круг продолжается пока ты не купишь смолу за камни истока (особая игровая валюта), что фактически означает купить возможность поиграть подольше. Особенной частью всего этого являются еженедельные боссы, на которых надо тратить аж 60 смолы за раз, иными словами ты потратишь всю смолу уже в первые 10 минут игры в понедельник, и все равно убьешь только двух боссов, и при этом не факт что тебе вообще выпадет что-то хорошее.
    Кстати о чем-то хорошем, а именно о ресурсах в игре. Приближаясь к высоким уровням цены на улучшения персонажей, оружия или артефактов становятся неподъемными. Мало того что всего лишь пара мечей или артефактов попросту съедят все ваши накопленные Мора (обычная игровая валюта), так еще и персонажи требуют по несколько десятков редких материалов. Если учесть, что в игре надо улучшать не только одного персонажа, а всю команду, то количество нужных ресурсов возрастает на столько, что будьте готовы потратить больше недели на улучшение нескольких персонажей персонажей. На самом деле, даже проблема с ресурсами перестала бы быть проблемой, если бы не смола. Mihoyo оказались очень хитрыми, чтобы получить нужные ресурсы требуется убить определенных боссов, но убить босса можно в любое время совершенно бесплатно, а вот собрать ресурсы стоит уже 40 смолы, или всего 4 раза в день, то есть 8-12 особых предметов для улучшения, в то время как стоимость улучшения может достигать 20 предметов и выше.
    Как итог, по мере прохождения интересная игра превращается в 15 минутные заходы и шаблонные задания.    … Expand

    While the core of the game is fun, the game is unfinished. Moreover, because of the awful gacha system combined with the inability to level your characters fully, playing the game just feels like a mistake – you’ll have fun for a while, long enough to get you hooked, and then you’ll run out of stuff to do and be stuck with a lot of repetitive, grindy gameplay.

    The actual cost of the game varies from “free” to “outright extortative”, and anyone with impulse control problems should never, ever, ever play this game, as it will try to fleece you for all that you’re worth.

    The game’s core mechanics drive you towards grinding, but the result is that the amount of “fun” gameplay you get will ever dwindle over time.

    All in all, as much fun as I had with this game starting out, I can’t recommend it. It’s a game that tries to eat your life, and it is unfinished to boot.

    Maybe when the plot is finished, you could just pick it up and play it as a free open-world game. But you’d have to be able to ignore the myriad ways in which the game is trying to get you to open your wallet and devour your time.

    All in all, this is a game to be avoided, not because of its low quality, but because of its incomplete nature and attempt at eating your life and wallet.    … Expand

To get more characters sooner or 5 star characters that are rare you have to roll for them on their wish system and there is a 90 roll pity where you will always get one 5 star in those 90 rolls.

    YOU DO NOT NEED ANY EXTRA CHARACTERS TO PLAY THE GAME OR BEAT CONTENT.

    A lot of these reviews complain about wasting their money and not getting what they wanted or that they cannot complete content without characters and it's simply not true at all. Characters are cool or cute and they add more flavour to your gameplay but they are not necessary to playing the game. The game tells you the drop rates and it is a gamble so please stop playing a lottery and just play the game.

    Strength in this game comes in the form of weapons, levels and artifacts. Weapons also come in the form of a wish system but also through a crafting system with a blacksmith, the crafting options have some of the best weapons and are what every player should craft asap. Leveling isn't like most games instead of killing enemies you gain most of your exp by using character enhancement material gained by opening chests. Artifacts are pure randomness but are where your characters get their biggest boost in strength. Upgrading them increases your stats tremendously, and not upgrading them can make your characters feel very weak.

    Exploration is awesome in Genshin Impact and is the best world exploring I've seen in a video game. The world is huge and getting bigger with updates there is always something to do as you walk by puzzles or groups of enemies. NPCs talk and give you items and have stories. Lots of beautiful scenes to screenshot and look at. The stamina system you use to explore with gets better the more you explore encouraging you to do more. Eventually you will think you've found everything but there is always a hidden chest or something of interest hiding somewhere.

    The story has some big plans but the game is not finished yet so the story isn't either. So far the story won't make you cry or leave an imprint on you but it is interesting and introduces some really cool characters and bosses. Events also add more story quests to the game so playing the game as it is being updated is fun and more interesting. Unfortunately I don't think these event quests will come back anytime soon and I don't think new players will be able to do them, but no doubt there will be new events for them to do anyways.

    In conclusion, I have spent 10 bucks for the battle pass to get resources for leveling up, none for wishing as it's a gamble, I just saved my wishes until a character I really wanted appeared on a rate up banner and then I got him easily with my saved primogems. Playing the game has given me a lot of joy especially in 2020 which sucked. Don't get trapped into thinking you need a character to have fun in this game, you'd probably have a new favorite the next month. The game is fun and I'm waiting for more, Thanks for reading and thanks to mihoyo for this awesome game.    … Expand

    A game as impressive in its ability to ripoff the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild as it is impressive in its laser-guided injection of gachapon and aggressive monetization tactics. Truly the future of gaming, in every bad way.

    Genshin Impact, one of the worst open world games I have ever played, the game only consists of graphics and gacha, an extremely overrated game. The game is based on, being lucky in gacha, doing daily quests, killing easy bosses, crying because you didn't get your Diluc **** and leaving. I've never seen a boss battle more boring than Genshin Impact. I regret every second I spent on this game.

    Adressing the pay to win aspect: 5 Star heroes do a lot more damage and cary you over the game quite easily. They feel unbalanced and make the game boring.

    All in all a grind that does not feel good, a technical disaster and a money grab. And we didnt adress the topic, that the game looks like a rip of breath of the wild. Really not worth playing.

    Now with the update 1.2 i thought about reworking my review, but the new game features and the new part of the map are even worse, than what was there before. Still a bad game, which lost even more fun with the newest update, still a money-grab, still not worth to be played.    … Expand

    I've fallen in love with this game (again) after the release of Patch 1.2.

    There are some issues with Genshin Impact, and it's still expensive AF if you plan to roll characters/constellations... nonetheless, it's not necessary to pay $$$ so I don't think that my previous score (0/10, yes I was a part of the "bombing" team) was correct.

There are 5 or more different currencies, all of which are a clever way to bypass gambling laws. You get some fairy dust that can be used to summon more characters and weapons. The more real life money you spend the stronger weapons and characters you may acquire. I took one look at it and exited the game. Not worth my time. I have played mobile gacha but if I am going to spend money on a mobile game I want it to at least be fun. This game isn't fun, it feels more like a chore.

    The main goal is to pretty much run around killing things and collecting drops. BORING, it is my opinion that a game such as this could work if the story and gameplay is decent. That just isn't the case with this one. I had to call it quits after an hour.    … Expand

    After some time and first impressions you're getting an endless grind with money milking daily restrictions. Inadequate prices. And the greed level that makes even EA shy.

    Devs are completely ignoring community. And their ability to design characters is highly questionable.

    For example: There were two consecutive banners with new limited premium characters: Childe and Zhongli.

    Childe was absolute OP by himself, and even more with lvl 1 passive that gives all other characters in the party +1 to Auto Attack talent lvl. Which top lvl is locked behind an item limited to Events one item per month or two. So basically his passive is like always available limited item substitute!

    And then comes Zhongli an underpowered premium character even weaker than many common characters causing massive backlash. With a passive returning some materials from the craft you would be able to use once a year or even never.

    Well that is some next level of 200+ years of design experience. And devs response was "don't worry, we are releasing some char which will be good in pair with Zhongli next patch". That is some next level of community management. Especially when it costs 400$ to guarantee a single character drop. And to max it it might very well be another 2000$

    So my advice: play it for the story if you care and don't pay a dime. Then uninstall.    … Expand

The main character designs and attack animations do look very good - I'll give them that. And of course the nature of the combat is a bit different than Zelda in that you can use multiple characters/etc. I wish that was enough to forgive nonetheless borrowedness + blandness + atrociousness of everything else about it.

    Hey it's totally F2P right?, Yet, all the while there is the motivation of leading people who apparently possess no willpower to decide to take $500 out of their wallet to attempt to unlock generic random characters and sword polygons. Put it this way: if the monetization wasn't immoral, it kindof shouldn't be POSSIBLE to spend $500 on make-believe swords and anime girls (that you are not guaranteed to actually get, mind you), yet that IS easily possible in this game. Because it's not a game so much as a gambling machine with pretty-ish anime wallpaper. And you paying $500 to them directly encourages them to develop and shovel out their next game which will gladly accept another $500 from the next zero-willpower guy. That's why AAA games which you just pay an upfront single, honest price of for, and get to play in their entirety sans gambling, are ultimately doomed.

    It is deeply, deeply depressing that this is such a popular and profitable game. I think quality gaming is somewhat screwed if this becomes acceptable by enough people to allow predatory practices from and monetarily reward game developers who do this. All they had to do was wrap up the underlying gambling-addict practices with the borrowed aesthetic from another cherished and normally priced game. I guess we can expect the next great game "Murio" from this company, where you get to freely play a jumping plumber who hops on Koopoo's and eventually get to pay $200 of cash you have to apparently burn on gambling on getting a special fire-flower (maybe - it's gambling, no promises). Yeah, I'm bitter. I hate played this game for 30 minutes and uninstalled it. I don't respect people who voluntarily paid that much money for gambling to a company that ripped off another company's ideas and aesthetics extremely profitably.

    So I guess someone could like this if they have never played Breath of the Wild and are just blissfully unaware, or are like a teenager that just has no cash and is enjoying F2P and just likes the anime style. But again, $450 million dollars profit from this b******* in 2 months = many many people are falling for the gambling. So that F2P is great in theory, but isn't remotely reality. Very much NOT free-to-play.

    TLDR: The gameplay/graphics are "meh" and a rip-off of another studio's work, and the pricing/profitability motive = atrocious    … Expand

    1. Its free to play, but its not free to enjoy, this game have every known monetization and amount of money you have to put in it to roll "wishes" and get what really good is enormous even for mobile game
    2. Around ar 35 youll start to have problems, at ar40 youll get kicked in the nuts by devs, simply because for previous world level increasing you had to do missions and had chance to keep up with resources before leveling up all the enemies now you dont. it just goes on without asking. so if you didnt maxing someone strong enough - forget about surviving now its rape time for you party members.
    3. There is no actual co-op nor online, but still game need to be connected so if you have connection issues - it will cause to fail fights or cooking etc.
    4. Resin - the biggest problem of this game, maybe its ok for mobile gacha games to stop players from playing (its not) but here its absolute joke. You get limit of 160 resin per day and recharge of this 160 is about 22 hours, so there's not much things to farm with it, and tbh you have to farm in this game despite everyone could say, you need to get character lvl up resources, character talents lvl up resources, weapons and amount of this items is growing with each level, so once you get to about 50-60 lvl you going to stuck with surprisingly low drop rate of higher grade resource, "but dont worry they added condensed resin which supposed to increase drop rates" could say someone new to this game, and the problem with this resin is that it takes x2 of regular amount to open domain lootboxes, but still not granting you to get item you need and to make this game even more suffering for players - you can only have 3 of this resins, and not 3per day but 3 in inventory. Now add this info to that fact that whole co-op that you can do is only missions with rewards for resin, and you can connect only to your lvl or lower players, so basicly whole coop takes about 5-10 min/day if you not going to use primogems etc.
    5. Endgame, there is no such thing like endgame by reading previous info you could understand that devs trying their best to stop you from power progressing while still leveling up world, you have to grind but you cant unless you spend money for it,and all this just to keep players from understanding that this game is just empy wallet leech, this game is all about rolling wishes for characters, once you get who you want - there's no activities for you to enjoy and you start to understand that whole previous gameplay is to get extra wishes or upgrade resources.
    6. Gacha, everything as usual for this type of thing, but devs went further and drop rate of good things is below 1%, so yeah, enjoy. Also they increasing prices for donate, so enjoy x2.
    7. Quests, Simpliest part, because quests here is just dumb unskippable time waste, once you start reading - you understand the problem, maybe for kids below 10yo it will be ok but someone older its just idiotic, extra credit for those dumbasses who wrote protagonist answers like "yes"/"definitely, yes" such rpg, now fallout's [sarcasm] isnt that bad.
    So yeah, game pretty bad and maybe if they didnt release it on pc it would remain unnoticed "gem" but for pc and especially consoles this 10min/day gameplay is just joke and paywall with enormous prices just making its problems even bigger. tldr: grind that you need but its limited + no story at all + limited with gameplay by amount of characters and weapon you have + lowest among other gacha games drop rates + pretty damn high prices with tons of monetizations + slowed progression so before you hit empty endgame - devs throw at you some boring event to suck whole your resin and show how broken their aspects of game is = genshin impact.    … Expand

That is not bad considering that I haven't hit the pity yet; however, it still takes an incredibly long time to save up enough intertwined fates, especially with the lack of resin. In addition to that, I feel quite bad for saying this, but I feel like MiHoYo is kind of greedy. They should make the f2p experience a little better. For example, give us at least 100+ primos for logging in --keep in mind 1 pull is 160 primos so it seems reasonable for the company, they should also fix the resin problem (not by making the cap bigger but by making the resin generation faster) so that we f2p people have more chances to get better artifacts and more primos from bosses. All in all, although it has it's problems, it's still an AMAZING game and I recommend you try it!… Expand

You don't need to spend money to enjoy it, sure, but at the same time, you'll get locked out of playing at your own pace thanks to resin, and good luck getting your characters to a viable strength to beat the abyss thanks to its artificial difficulty. But... that really didn't affect me when I realized how insanely monotonous the gameplay is. My favorite streamer started to main this game, and it's the same thing each stream. sadge. All he does is grind and grind and fukcing grind. And he even moans about having to do it... which would be playing the game. Sounds like fun /s. He has preached that you can enjoy 100% of this game as F2P, which is utterly false and rather ironic considering that he has spent almost $10k. Yeah, really sounds like you don't need to spend money to enjoy the game to its fullest /s. But again, it's ridiculously repetitive, so it kinda just stops being fun after a day or two, which makes any money spent a complete waste in my eyes. And the fact that it has the most basic of quests like "go kill these hilichurls for me", "go get me five apples" is honestly kind of insulting to gamers. It's 2020 and people are seriously content with these generic quests? Fukc that.

    However, I will praise its open world for its scenery, the game's overall aesthetic, and its music. I especially like the mountainous area, dunno what it's called. But it's still a sad excuse of a map. Open world games are supposed to have interesting locations and be full of detail, but all Genshin has to offer is a thousand hilichurl camps to slaughter. Everyone defending this garbage game seems to think that it being "F2P" justifies almost all of its flaws, but come on, miHoYo is making bank off a game with a pathetic amount of content, that being the story and an endless grind. Surely they can afford to make it tenfold better. It also baffles me that people will ask, "is a triple-A title worth my precious $60" and then everyone and their gramma goes to spend a minimum $1k on this just to get sh!t on with its garbage drop rates. Yikes. People aren't gonna stop you from spending your money how you want, but it's completely irrational to gamble hundreds let alone thousands of dollars for a single character, and keep in mind that you'll need to pull them a total of seven times to see them at full potential. AND ALSO KEEP IN MIND that new characters will come out over time, possibly with powercreep, so then you'll be even more incentivized to do this all over again. In conclusion, if you enjoy this game, get‎‏‏‎ fukced.

    It's a well built gacha game that has game-play that is beyond a traditional gacha games and hence lot of non gacha players join don't understand a thing and drop a lot of money into it and say it's bad..
    As a matter of fact you don't need to drop anything into the game to enjoy it..

    The monetization is also better than most Gachas but as it's still a Gacha Game of course it will have that type of monetization..
    Best way to "improve" the game for the masses is to try to make Mihoyo (Company behind the game) understand they are in new territory and should change their monetization according to it..

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I must say the concept is well, quite good. But i give mixed score because of this :

    - Many say the graphic is good, and yes its good.... for a mobile game and not pc game standart (RDR 2 for me is still had the best graphic) and its not well optimized.

    - The UI is too crowded for me and i understand this because this is a mobile game first and foremost

    - PAIMON IS SO ANNOYING!!!

    - The open world is really interesting to explore at first hour. Collecting chest, exploring dungeons, killing enemies, doing side stories, etc. But after a while, the world feels somewhat empty and the game become quite repetitive at long play and somewhat become boring to play (dunno if this true at later updates though)

    - The stamina system is bad, almost everything you do cost a stamina (sprinting, climbing and gliding) and the weird part is all characters share the same stamina

    - The Gacha system is meh... the rate is so low and to get better characters (or waifus) and weapons, gacha is a must because all obtainable weapons in the world are pretty bad. I rather pay $60 and all characters( or waifus) and weapons can be unlocked by progressing the game rather than spend $100 to get a single character (or waifu) and weapon

    - Not just Gacha, the entire monetization in this game is sooo bad, other than paying to get the premium currency, there's also a monthly subscribtion and battle pass which you have to pay separately so you can gamble more for characters and weapons. The fact that this is a single player focus game is disgust me.

    - Oh and people who says don't need to pay and play f2p is fine is wrong. Yes you can play free but what if you already reach the endgame? You gonna have a hard time if you don't have 5 star character as the game will be getting more and more difficult (already experience it on Honkai Impact 3).

    I know this is a shameless copy of BOTW but this isn't bad at all, the game has its own taste with the themes and identity.

    I can't say the story is good or bad though but i really hope the story doesn't take too long to finish ( i say this because i play Honkai Impact 3rd and bored with the game because the story takes too long and no end in sight as of now and gameplay is too repetitive).

    Update 30 November 2020
    Already reach AR45 now and i don't think i'm gonna change my score anytime soon due to this
    - The game somewhat become boring due to lack of endgame content.
    - Already finish the chapter 1 story and the quailty is average to me, more or less a typical high fantasy story.
    - The resin system is kinda meh, limits my progress so much.
    - Once again, the gacha. Already got one 5 star character but too many 4 star due to low rate of the gacha, and i don't feel like to pay for primogems due to the low rate.
    Thank God this game doesn't win Ultimate game of the year of Golden Joystick Award, if this game win then gamers around the world is really evolving backwards (liking game that encourage gambling than premium but complete pay to play games).    … Expand

    The game itself as a gacha action-RPG is almost certainly a nod to MiHoYo's former works as they represent similar mechanics but their first attempt in the world of RPG is simply surprising. The simple yet deep battle mechanics that lies in the game is a fun and customizable feat and evolves on the certain armor and accessories. Its implementation on elements is quite different as they create reactions which add more to the certain double damage.

    The thing to take note about this game is its constant progression however as you level up farther into the game, the more difficult and troubling levelling up becomes as the best weapons and characters are trapped behind the money-reliant gacha system of Genshin. The game makes it hard for people who have explored the area fully to acquire Primogems, the game's premium currency, and also costly as a roll costs at 160 of the gems and you could get at an average 65 Primogems per day which can get too far.

    The game's most controversial element would be its resin system as it restricts players more to enjoy the game as many of Teyvat's challenges require a somehow heavy amount of Resin which can bring trouble much for dedicated players compared to the F2P players. Another problem would be its sad probability rates as not everyone can get a 5-star at most rolls and players can certainly leave the game out of the whim just because of it so those are one of the major issues that needs resolving.

    Though locked behind a very obvious paywall due to its jarring gacha system and a somehow tedious grinding process just to be able to experience more of the game, Genshin Impact strives with an impact, no pun intended, as to becoming one of 2020's numerous surprises.    … Expand

Боссы с которых редко падают улучшения, мне понадобится год чтобы полностью прокачать скилы одного персонажа. Жесткие ограничения по всем аспектам игры. Спасибо за 6 одинаковых луков на мастерство стихий которые до сих пор работают не правильно . Платить в игре приходится за всё, это ужасно. За баттел пас - плати, за примогемы плати (да не обязательно а как без них?). Я ставлю 0 за эту ужасную игру которая требует только денег. Ты ведь можешь играть и бесплатно!! Ну конечно я могу, и могу вечно пытаться выбить понравившегося мне персонажа, оружие, созвездие. Без доната в игре делать нечего. Это рулетка которая портит настроение!!!… Expand

    This is a really fun open world exploration game, which was clearly very inspired by breath of the wild. It has its rough edges and the gacha system is not particularly generous, but overall I'm really enjoying all of the game mechanics and the combat is really fun and unique.

    Plagiarizing Japanese games. Not benchmarking. Plagiarize successful works in Japan and spread them to mass production

    All the 1s and 0s just show why people can't take metacritic seriously.

    Genshin is a gacha game, but it is NOT pay to win, nor a scam. It plays like every other gacha game out there. However even if you aren't a fan of gacha, I recommend trying it. I don't like gacha in general, but the game has a lot more to offer.

    It should be noted that I heavily doubt Mihoyo expected this game to be such a huge hit and they have been listening to fan feedback and making updates/adding more stuff to do over time. Criticisms are a good thing, but I find the 1s a little damn ridiculous.

    Genshin's biggest issue is probably the glitches, which is expected in a huge open world game even from AAA devs. Some glitches are just funny, while others can affect your enjoyment, especially in the Stormterror boss fight.

    The resin system can be restricting, and I agree with lots of people that it should continue to be reworked to allow for more gameplay. The resin system is purposely designed to restrict grinding so you don't burn yourself out, and it doesn't just stop all gameplay. You can still explore, do quests, help other players with their stuff, or just play the game as boss fights and domains aren't locked if you don't have the resin for the rewards. At the moment, even though they recently tried fixing it so you don't have to sign in multiple times for the daily reward, it's still very restricting especially as you get more characters and need more artifacts or exp books.

    You do not need to pay to keep playing either, as I have plenty of fragile resin (resin obtained outside the free resin you get back over time) without paying anything. Chests also give rewards, although not as much as domains and bosses. I do think chests should respawn every month or so, without affecting people's completion of that area. You also will need a lot of monster drops, which are free to obtain as well.

    The game is actually pretty generous. You do NOT need 5 star characters, a lot of the 4 stars are perfectly viable to incredibly good. I don't get why people sleep so hard on 4 stars like Fischl or Ningguang. The game also have a pity system, where you are guaranteed a 4 star after ten rolls and a five star after 90 rolls, assuming you didn't roll a 4 star in those ten rolls or a 5 star in those 90 rolls somehow.

    A lot of complaints I see are about how the game ends. Yea well, games eventually stop having content, that's how games work. Basically, if this game is the only game you are playing for some reason, yes you will run out of things to do. Just put it down and go do something else and come back tomorrow. I get the complaints, but it is designed this way purposely to keep people playing on a daily basis, because games are a service now. Basically every free game does this and even regular games are turning to it. I don't recall seeing people get upset that they run out of things to do in Animal Crossing every day.

    The game itself is a load of fun. The fact it has co-op is amazing. I have some beef with it, like being unable to get chests or talk to certain important NPCs, and it'd be nice to go through the story together like Monster Hunter. But overall, a genius addition that adds a lot of depth to the game.

    The battle system is surprisingly well done, and every character is unique in how they fight and what they excel in while allowing for some wiggle room with the artifact system. You switch between four characters to mix elements to maximize your damage or get advantages over enemies, such as ice freezing enemies that are wet. Course, this can all happen to you too, and sometimes the game is cruel enough to put an ice and water mage together.

    The game's music is splendid, normally very relaxing without getting annoying or boring like BOTW's soundtrack.

    The characters all have detailed backstories and the story is pretty extensive. A lot of it is cliche anime nonsense, but if you like that sort of thing like I do, you'll enjoy it nonetheless. As you obtain more copies of a character you learn more and more about their stories (or just look them up). The game also has plenty of humor and meme worthy content enough to get an entire subreddit. The characters can be tropey but in a fun way, especially since there are so many of them, and they have a purpose to the story as well.

    Overall, it is a very enjoyable game that is held back a bit by bugs/kinks and the f2p model. If this game was $60 outright with some characters as guaranteed DLC like smash bros, I'd buy it instantly. While the resin system is restrictive, it has a ton of content, a free open world to explore, enjoyable characters and fun gameplay that you can share with your friends. It's def worth checking out even if you hate gacha, and if you eventually get bored or run out of things to do, hopefully you least had a fun experience up to that point.

    Overall 8/10, held back by its issues but a very fun game that is free to try out.    … Expand

    The game starts very well, but the Resin system, boring history and looooooooooot of unnecessary dialogues totally ruined the game.

    This game surely has potential, but i think the devolepers are not maximizing those potentials.

    The story is really good, but why tf the developers are releasing a game with only 20% of the story done? This game has 7 nations but we can only access 2 of them right now, and they are planning to release the others nation in several years, like wtf are you sure the players are still playing and not bored?
    The gacha system is even worse, they said this is an rpg game, but you can only get characters from gacha and the rate are very low for some good characters. If you want to upgrade your characters, you also need to get another same character through the gacha system again.
    Resin system is even worse, you get only little resin daily and can't really do anything daily. I played for only 15 minutes daily because of the limited resin system.
    This game surely has potential and I hope the developers could really update the game and make better system.    … Expand

    Мне очень нравится эта игра. На данный момент очень мало игр с аниме стилистикой, где есть интересный открытый мир, красивая графика, и при том, что мой слабый пк тянет эту игру. Да, пока что в игре мало контента, но в игре нам намекают на то, что будет достаточно локаций, где мы должны побывать. Надо просто подождать немного. Желаю разработчикам успеха! Надеюсь грязью их не закидают!Мне очень нравится эта игра.

    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]

    Oh, the joy of exploring this beautiful world. Oh, the clever combat, the great voice acting, the compelling story. This is one of the best RPGs of the year. And it’s almost beyond comprehension that you can get it for free.

    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.
