    Отвратительное отношение к игрокам, отсутствие баланса в персонажах, отсутствие баланса среди стихий, неприятная и нелогичная сюжетная линия с последних обновлений.

    Don't play it. The developers will mock you, feeding you the worst characters and a careless attitude. With the release of inazuma, the developers completely scored on the players, well, we will score on them

    Las probabilidades de conseguir algo bueno son minimas, por ejemplo en todo lo que llevo del juego solo he podido tener unos 3 personajes 5 estrellas metiendole dinero

    At the start of the game everything feels awesome, beautiful anime graphics, okay story and cross-play seemed like a dream come true, but after ~20 hours into the game all the negatives came hurling in.

    - World is empty, even though it feels and looks amazing at the start when you're doing chapter 1 and 2 of the main story, there are interesting characters, but after that you're gated
    At the start of the game everything feels awesome, beautiful anime graphics, okay story and cross-play seemed like a dream come true, but after ~20 hours into the game all the negatives came hurling in.

    - World is empty, even though it feels and looks amazing at the start when you're doing chapter 1 and 2 of the main story, there are interesting characters, but after that you're gated with adventure level, keep doing dailies and wait for your level to go up.. Or go spend the money and buy yourself some resin so you can level up faster. There are few types of puzzles all over the map, after completing you will get a chest with useless weapons and currency.

    - Wishes, of as it is better know - gatcha system, greedy, totally killed experience of the game, Don't get me wrong, I played few gatcha games and they were fun and I willingly put some money into them, but this game just doesn't value your money. Chance for getting a 5* star character are lower that 1%... Are you serious? They are expecting 100$+ from each player. Oh, you're not paying, or you're not paying enough? - No good characters/weapons for you.
    Other gatcha games at least give you some "premium" currency so you can accumulate it and go for pulls. But this game gives you 5 currency for every achivement, and you will be saving up a week to do one 10-pull (which costs 1600). And you will get same ****, like you're opening common chests all over the map.

    - Combat system is okay, i like the element mechanic.

    All in all, pay-to-win, don't bother if you're not planning to throw some $$$ every few days. Biggest gaming let-down of 2020. Not coming back.

    I'm not like the others and I'm not here to complain about anniversary rewards, but rather the actual game itself. I just list it down here...

    PROS -Great graphics, though some form of upscaling support (DLSS and FSR) would be appreciated. -Combat system is decent and has some depth to it. -The World itself is gorgeous, especially Liyue and Inazuma. -SOME characters are fairly well

    PROS
    -Great graphics, though some form of upscaling support (DLSS and FSR) would be appreciated.
    -Combat system is decent and has some depth to it.
    -The World itself is gorgeous, especially Liyue and Inazuma.
    -SOME characters are fairly well written.
    -Interesting lore.
    -Characters and enemies are well design (in terms of looks) and Azdaha is amazing.

    CONS
    -Bad plot, and I don't mean it only for the Inazuma chapters. The game plot was kinda bad right from the start actually. While the characters, setting and McGuffins are different, each nation main story has the same formula. You meet an archon and it residents, help them with their nation crisis, fight boss, turns out its the **** Fatui over and over again. Its the same formula as those kids Tv shows. You can predict the plot and 75% of the time you will be right.
    -RNG on top of another RNG. I usually enjoy farming in games, my favourite franchise is Monster Hunter and its loot (monster parts) had medium to heavy RNG. But Genshin RNG is **** dogsh1et. Don't even expect you get even a decent artifact for your characters. I've been grinding artifacts for Childe for MONTHS since his rerun, and never get anything useful out of it.
    -Interesting lore, ruined by writing 101 mistakes. I interested in raiden and wanted to learn more about her, but then Yae just casually dropped the bomb and TELLS almost everything that could make as an interesting scenario to discover Raiden Shogun as character and make raiden's quest a shopping mall trip lmao. "SHOW, DON'T TELL".
    -Beautiful graphics, horrible render distance and optimization. Its hard to appreciate the landscape when the rocks and trees suddenly changes and jiggles like crazy everytime and the game rendering the land only like 5 meters away in front of your face. The fact that genshin runs worse than an emulated BOTW with graphics mods and RTX enabled on my PC is baffling.
    -Everything about Ayaka's quest. Really MiHoYo? A **** date quest, in the middle of a civil war? If it was optional I could forgive it or at least AFTER the main plot of Inazuma, then do whatever you want with her.
    -Electro as an element. Electro characters are the most fun to play yet their potential is gatekept by weak electro reactions.

    That's all and dear MHY White Knights, please go and touch some REAL grass. Your nothing but a bootlicker.

    Sincerely, me.

    Good game ruined by developers - mihoyo. There were many claims before the anniversary but * Anniversary * was the last straw. Such neglect of all who supported the project all year. This is a slap in the face of all users...It would be possible to make at least some commemorative awards ... Nobody talks about something monetary like the Legendary Hero or the 100 wishes.

Te banean y no solucionan nada. ¿Qué la comunidad no esta disgustada con ciertas mecánicas y contenido? Censuran todo tipo de comentario y se comporta la empresa con cinismo como si nada pasara.

    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.
