    Don't get fooled - Mihoyo is a HORRIBLE company run by communists! They would suck out your soul if they had a chance to do it.

    Boycott this game and any other game from that developer, until they apologize for what they've done to us!

    This game had so much potential, and was, for the longest time, the best game i had played in a long time. But the lack of end game content, the resin timegate and now, this greedy stingy company makes this horrible anniversary. Just not worth it, don't play or if u do, don't spend.

    A good game at first, but a very mediocre game with no personality over time. The company that runs it is greedy and without ideas. A year of gameplay is complete, and the company provides players who spent their time in this game with a meager reward, hardly a reward actually.

The prices here in Brazil are absurd, a simple character costs half a minimum salary. Going back to the game, the events released over time are mostly tiring and boring (and with ridiculously large dialogues), and many don't even do them, even though they have rewards. The new mechanics sometimes increased are irrelevant, and for the most part, forgotten and abandoned in a short time. Anyway, a game with great potential but governed by a greedy and mediocre company.… Expand

    This company sucks, never play this game until they realize it. This Billionare company reward players for 1 year of loality with 40 primogems, that is 1/4 of a summon, that will only give you 1 3* weapon wich is useless for the most part. Never trust in Mihoyo.

I mean, it's the worst anniversary i've ever seen. For all the time AND money we've spent on this game, we get almost nothing.Huge "THANKS" to mihoyo for this. You get what you deserve, mihoyo.

Pero mihojo es un ingrato con los jugadores, todo literal todo está limitado, nunca obtendrás el potencial máximo de tus personajes y ni hablar de los banners de personajes.

    The game is like a piece of S H I T. You need to spend a lot of real money to buy props and characters in the game. Moreover, the game company is also a shameful plagiarist. It plagiarizes the ideas of manufacturers such as Nintendo, Capcom and Platinum and puts them in its own games. It can be called a shameless model in the game industry.

    I have never seen such a massive disappointment of a game that fails at everything get so popular, this is probably one of the most overhyped games ever. The developers were lucky enough to combine world exploration with gacha isekai story and they failed horribly at both.

    The gacha is mediocre at best, some of the lowest rates and highest pity I've seen in all gachas, on top of that    I have never seen such a massive disappointment of a game that fails at everything get so popular, this is probably one of the most overhyped games ever. The developers were lucky enough to combine world exploration with gacha isekai story and they failed horribly at both.

    The gacha is mediocre at best, some of the lowest rates and highest pity I've seen in all gachas, on top of that you have 50% chance to miss the banner character, combined with every banner limited and standard banner being a literal waste / trashcan where you can drop your free pulls. It's literally a slot machine on a strict timer before it explodes and you won't be able to pull on a character you wanted for like 6 months or more. The materials you get for dupes and pulls can be spent on 2 useful things every month, nothing else is worth it.

    The only good thing is guaranteed banner 5* on second 5* pull, but I think that this makes the gacha lose it's spirit and basically slapping a price sign on every character. Unfortunately you will have to spend most of if not all 160 pulls to get to that guaranteed part, for a F2P player this is very damaging, it takes multiple months to save up for just for one 5* so you might end up pulling only one character you wanted every 5-6 months, this happened to me. And even if you are a low budget player you will still struggle greatly but you may cut the time by one month, I don't recommend buying anything other than the monthly card (!! be very careful with the monthly card, if you don't log in for a day the primogems for that day will be gone (basically you are paying to log in every day !!) ).

    The constellation system is a huge whale bait, basically requiring you to pull the same character multiple times to be useful or up to 5x more powerful. WEAPON BANNER oh god don't let me even get started on that, even if the cost of it was decreased by half it would be still horrible, It's insane that a 5* stat stick will require as many pulls as a full character. People saying that this game is not pay to win are either high on copium or didn't play the game enough.

    Ah yes the "world exporation isakai" bleuugh.. It's sad to see so many people get baited by this because it's one of the most popular things, the escapism, being reborn in a fantasy world. Too bad this is one of the weakest fantasy worlds you will ever see, the story is so bad that people care more about the cooking system.... World exploration is only good for the first time after that it becomes annoying and repetitive, just like 90% of the enemies. Even new zones are just copy paste of the old ones to the point that new zones don't even count as new.

    The endgame is non-existent, the powercreep is getting worse and worse, every 4* character is getting replaced by a 5*. The enemies are getting more and more annoying, jumping all over the place, teleporting and flying, while you have very limited movement and stamina, It's like they are forcing you to either use characters that do more damage or characters that are easier to use, eliminating even more skill that's needed to play this mess, like the auto-aim on everything wasn't enough.

    Not even gonna mention how the developer and the community behaves, you have probably seen it all anyways, I'm just wondering how people can completely ignore all this and continue to support this mess, even if you like the game a lot, the community and developer will make you hate it.    … Expand

    After most likely playing upwards of 3000 hours of this "game" since the launch, I have reached the conclusion that it has all been a waste of time and money. Why did it take so long to figure that out? You would be wrong if you assumed I'm simply too dense to catch on before I'd spent an unbelievable amount of time grinding and exploring. The reality is that Mihoyo has pulled the rug outAfter most likely playing upwards of 3000 hours of this "game" since the launch, I have reached the conclusion that it has all been a waste of time and money. Why did it take so long to figure that out? You would be wrong if you assumed I'm simply too dense to catch on before I'd spent an unbelievable amount of time grinding and exploring. The reality is that Mihoyo has pulled the rug out from everyone and made the "game" pointless, they were lying from the very start and everything only looks good until you play it enough and realize it was all there just to make you think they care and that everything is fine, It's NOT.

    Genshin is a massive Whalebait going as far as offering you 5x the damage on a character if you spend "few hundreds of dollars". It's insane how pay to win the "game" is, every F2P player will never see themselves as powerful as a small whale even if they played for years more. This is because 5* characters and weapons are always better (with very few exceptions) on top of the the constellations are a huge pay wall behind which could be even half of character's kit locked behind and the only thing to access it is pay pay pay. 5* weapons are just stat sticks, constellations are only improving that, they add nothing new. It's unbelievable how greedy this company is, many players were able to see it soon, thank god, thanks to recent outrage many people are waking up to it, still 12 y.o. fanboys will be forever lost.

    Don't waste your time grinding this "game". The plot is absolute trash and moves at very slow pace. Genshin has no endgame and you will only grind the same things for years to come until they add another resource or upgrade material to chase for the next few months until you have enough.
    The "game" has only gotten worse since the launch, only doing the same thing over and over until mihoyo wakes up and remembers we still exist, they abandoned the community in favour of advertising and promoting their mess of a "game". Going as far as to beg artists, content creators and even cooks to promote them, even begging Elon to hype them up so that they could shaft even more unknowing people into their predatory monetization hellhole.
    You also may see a lot of players defend this "game" they have no idea what they are doing, hopefully they will see before they will lose too much money and time on this like me.

    This "game" is only a money making machine, just watch them throw it away when the hype around it dies down. They are already giving up on it, you can see it from recycled events, severe lack of content and them not listening to anything players say, going as far to delete and ignore people's feedback, It's everywhere, just look it up.

    If you want a better gacha that didn't copy everything from others go play Fate/Go, Azur Lane or Arknights those are much better in every sense. Or go play Zelda from which this "game" took everything and slapped monopoly on top of it.    … Expand

    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

The gacha system is horrible and stupid, it uses an ingame currency called primogems to obtain characters and weapons, to get these primogems you either have to find chests and complete quests or take out the credit card. The game is very **** and lazy. II hate this game. It was interesting at first but then gets very boring the more you play it. The characters are bland and forgettable.

The game is very **** and lazy. I wish it wasn't a gacha game and only a single player game with a good story and characters and not this **** I'm so glad I deleted it that **** took up all my damn storage. Even though its free I still do NOT recommend this game. There are far better games out there to play and not like this pedo bait anime pile of trash. **** this game.… Expand

    Genshin Impact is a well above average RPG to which we will dedicate many hours, but that gets lost in a monetization system typical of the gacha genre that sometimes demands too much from us. However, the free to play experience is wonderful offering us a beautiful and colorful world that can boast an absurdly good character design and a story capable of keeping us hooked.

    Genshin Impact is part of a wave of titles from China that is slowly eroding the bad stereotype that Chinese devs are devoid of creativity and skill. While the initial comparisons are there, Genshin Impact does go beyond to distinguish itself…now if only the gacha rates and the free primogem are better I would have no hesitation recommending the title.

    Genshin Impact might not be the most original game in a lot of respects, but it certainly has a wealth of things to offer players should they still be willing to give it a chance. Overall, I greatly enjoyed my time with it, and I plan to continue playing once future updates are implemented. The fact that it can be played for free is also quite impressive given just how much time you can invest in the game, especially with people perhaps staying at home more and being on a budget. All in all, Genshin Impact is a surprisingly solid action RPG adventure!
