    The base game seems pretty well made and the open world is very good. However, it's still a predatory gacha game that prays on your money and will often end up forcing you to spend way more than you'd spend on any AAA game just to progress, and the abundance of child characters in questionable clothing really drove me away as well.

    Genshin impact is awful. Sure there' flashy characters and lore but the core gameplay is really shallow and boring.

    You'll find that it doesn't cost anything to get into the game. But in the course of play, the game's planners will do everything they can to get the player to spend money.

    The simplest form is the monthly pass and the big monthly pass.

    The card format is also standard.

    You'll find that the plan is to weaken the characters that were there before, just so that the game can make more money.

    As more new characters are introduced, the original character only gets weaker.

    In the same way, the story of this kind of game in the young can not be avoided. In fact, the story was never closed from the start, and the story had to serve to make the game more profitable.

    There is no doubt that the makers of this game are making this game for money in the first place. This may be the reason why the game has been so criticized in China, and its popularity has blocked out more good games in China in the future.    … Expand

    A game is always made in a way so that the player wants to "beat" it.

But the game world in Genshin Impact doesn't have an intentional structure at all. It has flimsy bits copied and pasted from Breath of the Wild, superglued together seamlessly enough to give the impression of a real game. Instead, the meat of Genshin Impact is in the menu, which is a merciless jungle where the currencies are called Mora, Fates and Primogems, but are all proxies for the same rabbit hole: real-world transactions. Now, some folks enjoy seeing their money siphoned out of their accounts since there's a perverse thrill in knowing you might not get anything back, making the times you do all the more exciting. But for those of us who want to play an actual game should look elsewhere, because if you take a look under the hood of this thing, there is nothing to beat, only things to buy.… Expand

    If you want to gamble and you don’t have the money to, well, then you feel like you have to log on, every day, and do all the tasks and beat all the events.

And while the better characters aren’t necessary to play the game, they are very, very nice. Some of them offer great utility to my roster, sure — but I’ve grown attached to others just through the sheer amount of time I’ve spent with them.
    It’s an open-world game, but it’s also a gacha game. The daily and weekly requirements, the currencies, and the luck of the draw all influence how and when I play. I can’t cram all my bosses or domains into one day of playing because of arbitrary caps the developers put in place. I can’t go pick all the flowers I want because some will only respawn every two days; like the inner machinations of its ever-looming systems, that serenity I found on the mountaintop is also dictated by the grind.
    And so, while there are a lot of ways to play, the game isn’t truly open — I can’t always do what I want, when I want. I love the world, but I always feel like there’s a tension between loving the world and exploring it, but always feeling like there’s an invisible hand, which is not completely free of insidious intentions, guiding my habits.

    1.- npc iguales, sosos y sin personalidad
    2.- diseños sobrecargados de los personajes 3.- mal balance entre elementos, haciendo unos más fuertes que otros
    4.- historia llena de huecos argumentales 5.- pocas recompensas y eventos de relleno pésimos 6.- mucho texto, tipo DEMASIADO, una misión principal dura 2 horas donde 1 hora y media son de texto aburrido y lento, no es broma, cronometree eso

The game is incredibly grindy with having to upgrade your characters with artifacts and level up material. Resin, which you have a limited supply of, is used to go into temples that grant you artifacts after defeat. So you do about a few of these temples a day and your resin is already out, meaning you have to basically wait a full day to have all your resin back again. But resin is not only used for artifact farming, its also used for EVERY SINGLE THING TO UPGRADE YOUR CHARACTER. The game also has side quests which are very boring as they can be ridiciously hard and/or have lots of pointless dialogue which you can skip through easily as none of it matters. This game also has no replayablity has it is so hard to get back into. I've spent so many hours on this game that I regret I've spent. smh.… 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

    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

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.

Они все построенные по шаблону "собрать какой-либо ресурс, убить кучку монстров, побегать туда-сюда", максимум вам попадётся несложная загадка. Игрок никак не взаимодействует с миром, в игре практически нету закрытых локаций, кроме подземелий. И продолжать можно ещё долго Чего только стоит тот факт, то что вы не можете пробежать даже main-квест без фарма и прокачки ранга приключений. Это делает игру ужасно затянутой, скучной и однообразной.
    Прокачка в игре бессмысленная, ибо у её нет конца. Только вы прокачали персонажа, как ту же уровень мира повышается, и вам приходиться качать персонажей снова. Это замкнутый круг. Если всё вышеперечисленное для вас критично, если игра не приносит вам ничего кроме скуки от бесконечного фарма, то пожалуйста - перестаньте в неё играть. Это пустая трата времени.

    At first, it all seems that the game is really good: a beautiful interesting world and characters, wonderful music, a plot (which does not differ in particular depth or originality, but you can be interesting in your own way). However, over time, you realize that this is just an illusion. A kind of player's motive to play. However, in the end, everything is free in endless farming throughout the game, and the twisting of the gacha. Quests in the game are terrible, boring, not interesting, monotonous. They are all built according to the pattern "collect some resource, kill a bunch of monsters, run back and forth", maximum you will come across a simple riddle. The player does not interact with the world in any way, there are practically no closed locations in the game, except for dungeons. And you can go on for a long time What is the fact that you cannot even run the main quest without farming and pumping the adventure rank. This makes the game terribly drawn out, boring and monotonous. Leveling up in the game is pointless, because it has no end. As soon as you pumped the character, the same level of the world rises, and you have to download the characters again. It's a vicious circle. If all of the above is critical for you, if the game does not bring you anything but boredom from endless farming, then please stop playing it. It's a waste of time.

    I have been playing Genshin Impact everyday since it came out and the game has a lot of potential but the resin system, lack of content and too many filler updates (festivals being dropped too often) holds the game back. The story on Genshin Impact is nothing out of the ordinary but is fun to experience it and there's nothing to lose if you plan on just being a F2P player. The gameplay is simple, fun and the open world is beautiful with a lot of stuff to explore. The game has some co op features like being able to join someone else world and explore it and also the ability to play domains (dungeons) in co op mode were you kill mobs to obtain certain rewards as long you have enough resin.

    I have to admit that exploration on Genshin Impact is really good and you feel like there's always something new to do, however when you complete the story and do every side quest possible is when the game begins to fail. On Genshin Impact there's a system known as "resin" which is basically a stamina system. In order to make progress on the game you need to use resin for the rewards to drop. Once the resin runs out you are basically left without anything to do and the open world will feel empty as you cannot make any progress without resin. Playtime on Genshin Impact is reduced to basically 20 minutes per day as everything that makes you progress requires the use of resin.

    Genshin Impact as of right now lacks end game content which doesn't help much and most updates that drop are basically filler "festivals" that have little progress on the story. Not to mention that most of the mini games during the festivals are basically straight off rip off from other existing games. If you plan on playing this game for a long time, dropping cash is required if you desire to obtain a certain character.

    Now for the censorship topic. Genshin Impact is made by a company whose slogan is "otakus tech saves the world" but those words don't hold much. The developers of this game tend to make a bait and switch with characters already being presented. If you see a certain character introduced, you can bet that the final design will be "adjusted". For example a character know as Rosaria was introduce as an NPC and a few updates later said character becomes a playable character. However the character goes from the largest bust in the game to the smallest one from the tall female cast. I'm not sure why would developers change the appearance of existing characters on a waifus & husbando game.

    Overall good game but the lack of content, censorship and developers not listening to the players feedback, might may you think twice and look for an alternative.    … Expand

    The world graphics are a horrible rip-off of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the climbing and swimming mechanics also being the same. Not enough people realize this is a cheap beg for cash. Characters are boring, most are there for fan service. A terrible game that you should DEFINITELY not play.

    So no one is saying the game itself is bad. People talking about the Gacha and Gambling System.

In fact compared to other mobil games ( just remember, its in fact a mobil game with cross play function), the small pitty for 90 draws, where you get a random 5 star garantieed, and according to the survy, most people will reach this pitty between 70-80th draw.

    Alright even 70-80 sounds terrible right? that means you need about 200 bucks for a random 5 star (50% to be the pick up one), or 400 bucks for the pick up one if you had bad luck. But lets think about the free crystals you can get. Approximatly you get about 6000 crystals each version, and genshin updates every 40 days (its basically 2 banners, each for 20 days). So without paying anything, you get 6k crystals every 40 days as long as you just spend about 10min each day for dailies, and doing all campains ( either 4-7 hours for the whole champain, or about 30min everyday during champain). In addition to it, you get about 10k crystals each major area, where you have 3 currently plus 1 time limited and only gives about 2k. So lets say, join the game play the first month and paying nothing will give you about 36k crystals, which is more than 220 draws. If you willing to pay a little bit for it, get the monthly subscription which costs 5 bucks every 30 days, grant you 100 crystal every day and 300 genesis crystal (the currency where you can only get buy paying real money, used to exchange 1:1 to crystal or buy some packages/skin from cash shop), even more you can get a battle pass for each version, which costs you extra 10 bucks and gives you 5 draws (800 crystal) for time limited banner and 5 for normal as well as 680 crystals and tons of resources. So paying about 15 bucks you can get almost a pitty every month considering the 5 monthly free draws from shop and most people get thier pitty between 70-80.

    So what do you get from gacha? Either Powerful and/or cute/sexy waifus. But the game is completely playable even you dont draw a single charactor (there are people doing this way as challenge), you just need some player skills and spend a bit more time when fighting boss.

    And those complaining about "Pay to play daily", they meaning the rensin system, oh yes, you get about 180 rensin regen for each day, those daily activities costs you either 20 or 40 each time when you want to claim the prize. And you can spend up to 900 crystals every day for 300 extra rensin, if you whale it, bringing you tons of more trash relics and about 300 extra exp, which means almost nothing if you plan to play long with it (since the game is softly capped after lv55, and even not spending a single coin on it, you get at least 50 moons from main quests result in 3k extra rensin, and you can hit lv55 within 3 month buy just doing the daily and use your daily 180 rensin). So in some way, it is pay to play long, but even if you whale, you cant play it the whole day.

    And just to make it sure, its neither an MMO or a Diablo-Like game, which keeps you on endlessly. Even those 3As, which also turn out to have nothing to do for the most people after the first 100 - 150 hour game play. As its an PvE game without super hard dungeons, its just fine to not have all the charactors. ( i mean, you want to play an awesome game, but dont want to pay for it, and you want to have everything? games are not charity i mean. f2p means you have to gave up some game experience)    … 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

    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

    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

    Худшая годовщина в истории. Разработчики не дают обратной связи игрокам, которые вкладывают свои деньги, время и любовь в эту игру.

    Disappointed with anniversary reward
    Could've given us a cute in-game pet like the seelie you had in the Lost Riches event. An anniversary namecard. A skin for the traveler. A basic reskin of in-game models to make an anniversary constellation bedroom set for our teapot. Given us a free five star. And then no one would have batted an eye. That would have been the bare minimum and very    Disappointed with anniversary reward
    Could've given us a cute in-game pet like the seelie you had in the Lost Riches event. An anniversary namecard. A skin for the traveler. A basic reskin of in-game models to make an anniversary constellation bedroom set for our teapot. Given us a free five star. And then no one would have batted an eye. That would have been the bare minimum and very much within your ability to grant. Especially given the boring event we now get to grind through for rewards I wouldn't waste my time on if I had any other option.

    Could have added dungeons you can keep farming, not locked behind resin for chances of great artifacts, weapons, or special rewards as endgame content for players with nothing more to do to tide people over until the system is fixed. Could have done a whole lot differently. This post is the same as the bazillion others calling you out, but I guess I'm just that angry. Have been. It's such a small thing, really, but it's the lack of consideration I think that compels me to keep venting.

    The "trying to milk your fanbase" for promotional material when you could have just paid content creators outright. You know, like actual commissions. THEN give them a sizable bonus in-game. Because you will be using that work for a long, long time, in your ads, in your videos...

    Raffles should have been open to everyone as a SIDE EVENT, without people having to pour hours and hours into work just for a chance at getting something. Companies have raffles all the time. How much you want to bet all that stuff you are offering was "free" from the companies as a congratulatory bit? As a way of advertising for them?

    Kokomi is laughable. A $300 broken, underwhelming five star you should have realized needed work during testing. You could have simply stated you needed more time to make sure she was ready for release, and rerun a banner everyone has been begging for, especially for characters that haven't had a chance to come back. Oh but thanks for showcasing fanwork on streams and that concert I couldn't attend and don't really want to watch after all this.

    But yeah. I hope people collectively boycott you, especially after you took away signature editing and tried to do damage control instead of just fixing your mistakes or addressing the community outright. Your silence made it worse.    … Expand

    This game is great in general, yes there are some complaints about the anniversary rewards but other than that id 100% recommend it. Its has free roam, quests u can do and bosses u can fight. This game has kept me busy for months and is truly addicting. :D

    Игра большой челлендж. И не в плане самого геймплея а в скачивании. Но не суть. Вообще я заметил мало плюсов, поэтому перечислять их даже не хочу. Минусы: у моих знакомых игра не поддерживалась на телефонах(не знаю вроде телефоны не старые). Самая обидная вещь это сытость, то есть персонаж может наесться из-за чего больше не собирается питаться а значит и регенерироваться.Игра большой челлендж.

    There is no redemingquality in this game, it was only made for money, more than EA. It still amazes me how this can exist and how people enjoy it, and the gatcha included is already terrible to include, and with the rarety its ridiculous, the oly point is for the world and the story, for me I would like to see a genshin anime not a game.

    Genshin Impact is a visually stunning and captivating open-world action RPG that has taken the gaming world by storm.

Its beautifully crafted world of Teyvat is a testament to the level of detail and artistry that the developers at miHoYo have poured into the game. The game's mechanics, particularly the elemental combat system, add a layer of depth and strategy that keeps players engaged and constantly experimenting with different combinations.

    The diverse cast of characters, each with their own unique abilities and personalities, contributes to the game's charm and replayability. The gacha system used to acquire new characters and weapons, while controversial, adds an element of surprise and excitement to the gameplay.

    One of the game's strongest aspects is its free-to-play nature, allowing players to experience the vast majority of its content without spending money. However, there are microtransactions available for those who wish to speed up their progression or collect specific characters.

    Despite its strengths, Genshin Impact is not without its flaws. Some players have criticized the endgame content for lacking depth, and the resin system, which limits the amount of high-level activities that can be completed each day, has been a point of contention.

    Overall, Genshin Impact has set a new standard for free-to-play games with its breathtaking world, engaging combat, and constant updates that keep the game feeling fresh. Whether you're a fan of RPGs, exploration, or simply stunning visuals, Genshin Impact is definitely worth diving into    … Expand

    anyways, the game is good. although not finished yet, it has a compelling story and a stunning world. if played in a casual manner, it is possible to have some fun playing the main and side quests, participating in live events and earning some currency to unlock a few of your favorite characters. the way i recommend playing is just doing quests and participating in events and thats it. no watching yt videos about the best builds for each character nor trying to max out on the abyss, which is arguably the hardest, lowest profitable challenge in the game. try to log in from patch to patch to see the new features
    the worst part about this game, as well as other gacha games, is that it makes the coolest characters the hardest to obtain, requiring daily grind of currencies which can make you highly addicted as it did to me years ago.
    in resume, play YOUR game and try not to get envolved in minmaxing your characters as i did, which ultimately led to me being sick of the game.    … 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]

    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.
