    I didn't really want to review a AAA game on this profile, but lemme make this one joke.
    Genshin Impact? More like Gensh*t.
    Ok, real talk now, this game has good things going for it. The visuals kinda stylish and the gameplay is good (the cooldown for everything sucks, but im not gonna complain about it too much cause then it would be kind of a skill issue). The story is fine, but mostly

    Ok, real talk now, this game has good things going for it. The visuals kinda stylish and the gameplay is good (the cooldown for everything sucks, but im not gonna complain about it too much cause then it would be kind of a skill issue). The story is fine, but mostly boring; didn't get me invested. The character designs are hit or miss: sometimes they make stylish charismatic characters, sometimes they make a 30 yo loli. So, getting that out of the way, what the **** is that gacha. I rest my case.

    Don't spend your money on this game, it's blatant fraud. You might spend $100 just to get a 5-star character, and you might not even get it, it's a 50/50 chance. The game doesn't reward you for the time you've played. These characters should be rewards for the number of hours you've played because even if you pay money, you won't get what you want.

I've seen a video of someone spending over $55k and still couldn't upgrade all the characters to C5. Imagine the plight of f2p players.

    The game world is vast and beautiful. The character design is fantastic, and the game elements are good, especially how they can be combined, such as using water to enhance lightning attacks or using wind to strengthen fire attacks. It's really well done. However, if the game was less greedy, it would be one of the best games ever.

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

    Красивая донатная помойка. Игра сделана очень красиво и очень интересно. Но без доната играть в неё не возможно.В игре реализованы крайне агрессивные протоколы монетизации. Развод на деньги. Хуже игры в рулетку.
    A beautiful donat dump. The game is very nice and very interesting. But it is not possible to play it without donation. The game implements extremely aggressive monetization

    Tbh the game is good, the story was ok until Inazuma, a lot of inaccuracies and bad development. Lately the new characters seems bland and created with low effort. It is hard as F to get good stuff in-game, even if you pay for character/weapon banners it is way too hard to upgrade them since there's too little resin to spend for so many materials and money the characters/weapons cost toTbh the game is good, the story was ok until Inazuma, a lot of inaccuracies and bad development.

MiHoyo doesn't care for their players, they are a very greedy company that seems to care more for money than the player base. It is faster for them to ban a leaker than to hear a complain about the rewarding methods they have. Expand

    El sistema captcha del juego solo lo utilizan para sacar el DINERO al personal, pero todo lo bueno que conlleva el genero captcha para el usuario como recompensas y eventos TODOS los días, algo todos los días, sin faltar el loguin DIARIO, que se completa al pasar el mes, y dentro del juego recibes las recompensas.
    Encima de sacarnos el dinero, los eventos los hacen web para sacar mas dineros con los cookies y nuestra información aparte del juego. Me parece una vergüenza.

    Piece of **** time gated singleplayer game. Thats REAL TIME gated, meaning you have to wait days for things to respawn (like fish) and of course there are achievements/trophies that requires you to fish thousands of fish (8 fishing spots, each with less than 10 fish, each 3 days - you do the math)

    Dungeons that require you to play on a specific week day Content gated behind pay walls

    Toxic community, Characters not worth pulling, company is too stingy.

    If you don't spend money you will get disapointed.

    They still haven't fixed Monas C1 after 2 years. The devs don't care about bugs unless they reduce their profit. Just shows how much the devs don't care about the game or the community.

  1. Genshin Impact is a must try gacha - action/adventure game. With free updates coming in certain periods, the game, which adds so much new content that we can call "Expansion Pack" almost every year, gives you the opportunity to play more content than many AAA games without paying any fee.

    Forget the bad tongues, Genshin Impact is, a year later, a staple of the genre. Very (very!) Generous in content, with sublime graphics and incredible staging, MiHoyo's RPG-gacha has overcome our preconceptions to become a game of rare quality, whatever the platform on which you are evolving. Complete, and endowed with an exciting universe on condition of not being totally allergic to the "kawaïsque" atmosphere, Genshin Impact has not finished surprising us, in fact justifying a higher rating than originally.

    Genshin Impact remains an unbelievable proposition as a free to play title, and the PS5 version of it remains the best way to check it out on consoles for now, in spite of several missed opportunities for obvious and meaningful upgrades.
