    Great story, great open world, awesome characters. People need to understand that you are not forced to gacha. You can get characters easily by just playing daily and saving. You won't get all characters right away but with reruns and all, you can get all the characters that you want. It is not pay to win as there is nothing really to win. End game content can be easily done 100% free toGreat story, great open world, awesome characters. People need to understand that you are not forced to gacha.

    Ja, das Spiel hat viele Mängel, besonders mit dem Artefaktsystem, aber ich spiele dieses Spiel auch seit weit über einem Jahr und freue mich immer noch alle 6 Wochen auf das massive Update für mehr Abwechslung oder sogar einen Geschichte Erweiterung

The exploration is wonderful with huge maps to explore and many secrets to uncover. The gameplay is endlessly fascinating with complex elemental resonance to trigger if you use certain character combinations. The music is incredible - top notch orchestral pieces that use both western and eastern instruments to create sublime pieces of music.

    Anyone that gives this game low scores is doing so because of a misguided reaction to a lack of developer generosity in giving away free stuff.

    The game is free. Yes, it is a gacha game but you do not have to spend money on it, and it doesn't push you to spend. I do, because I want to support the game and love getting new characters. The developers are reliable and update the game every 6 weeks although currently their situation is difficult since they are based in Shanghai which has a total lockdown imposed.    … Expand

    overall like the game from its graphics to story to combat, but the only thing I don't like and is stopping this from being higher than a 7 out of 10 is the microtransaction. though not nearly as bad as other games it still takes a long time to get premogems for wishes for only a small chance at the new characters.

    1600 primogems for 10 summons means I got grind 24 hours one day just get 1000 gems which isn’t enough to do 10 summon.

    Us players have lives too! We can’t just play your stupid over rated and over price game to get nothing in return. Players should don’t bother getting this game. Just all players should just stop playing till. You get your head on straight and fix your isssue of over price and lack of content.

    Reason they could fix it. Is lower the summon cost to 600-800 gems, increase primogems we get per mission or **** instead oh hear you get 10 gems where we need 1600 which is 160 mission of just daily quest only to get to that.
    Fix your price instead of 1980 + 1980 gem for 30$
    It should be 5000 gem a 30$
    320gems for 1$
    2500 for 15$
    20,000 gems for 99$
    Like hell this just push new players and common players away. Soon your master players that play it everyday will leave too. Making you lose money and have useless game.
    I inform all those you won’t agree. You will agree when it come to your friends. Your friends won’t be playing the game.
    Co-op mode don’t reward nothing. So why should you even do co-op. I’m quit this not even 24 hours in the game after seeing the cost of primogems and cost of summons and how much gems you get per mission.

    Also aka! If there another game that comes out like this and lower prices. Well your game crash and burn. I’m sorry that’s the truth. I know game In works that’s has some game play. You think I’m bluffing. I don’t bluff on these game. Good luck with ****ty game and ****ty review    … Expand

Is a shame because if they just added some depth to the combat and made the missions scale to you level instead of insisting on massive leaps in level between missions it would be a good game. But the other main problem is there is way to little of the scripted story missions and the game just expects you to explore and grind. That would be fine if the world was engaging but like I said it gets boring quickly.… Expand

    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.
