i would say yes in fontaine, but post natlan and now nod krai it's gotten so much worse than i would never consider it now.
new mechanics are locked to other characters so you can't just roll for 1 character, you NEED 2 specific ones from the same region. they're cracking down on creative teambuilding and forcing everyone to use very specific teams instead. and it's only going to get worse

The story, the gameplay. All made to shill the latest character and discard the old.

Yeah gacha game's sheer allergy to balancing characters causes a ton of issues, because people spend THOUSANDS on new characters. Its the most exaggerated case of sunk cost fallacy. You put yourself, the vendor, in a continuous hostage situation to gain money.
Its not like genshin doesn't know what theyre doing with their balance half the time, though. The true culprit of this is Limbus Company and el director being a retard that doesn't seem to understand his own game
>>
>>729193201
Her whole thing is that she pretends to be confident and charismatic when she's actually constanty freaking out mentally about being unable to solve a huge problem. And once the problem is solved and she's unmasked as a fraud, she becomes a neet and survives on a maccaroni diet.
>>
>>729192727
I understand that on a more fine points they're different but I'd argue on a broad level they are very similar. Ulquiorra is just the one who stayed a brooding loner while Stark had a kid and Harribel became a leader.

Yeah, I joined just before Natlan and its fine. Nod Krai is very good, so great time to join. You might be able to catch up before the story hits the big area its been building up to all the time its been out. I'd just watch a couple "What I wish I knew when I started out" videos or whatever so you don't fall into new player traps. Save your primogems (used to get characters) until you better understand. Or just pull for the new waifu characters they are usually broken.
>>
>>729190570
No. New/caca/ are too far behind at this point, unless you can catch on the train I'd say there's no point in playing genshin as a new player. Here's another point to consider
>120gb file
>more than 100 hours of single player gameplay
Those people reaction of genshin being kino - which probably the reason why you want to play this game - happened on the recent genshin version, you need to endure hours of slog area like inazuma and sumeru in order to reach the 'kino' region
>banner cycle/no selection banner
meaning that if you want to play as a certain character that are (unfortunately) from old version like yoimiya or nilou for example, then chances are you wont be able to get them because the devs wont put them on the banner again.

It is going to depend on if you are playing for story, exploration, or just that you like the characters and want them.
There is currently about 70-80 hours of main story and with side quests you are looking at over 150-200+ hours. You can do most story content fairly easily, just you will get a few spots where you will be time gated behind grinding adventure rank. There is a large world to explore and things to collect in that down time if you are in to that kind of thing.
If you are playing to get the characters then you are probably too late with the way banners work.

>>729194318
>slog area like inazuma and sumeru
I would argue the story actually picked up at Sumeru, but that is something like 20-30 hours in. The slog part was the side Aranara quest since it just kept on going and going.

The problem with sumeru story is that it cant stand on its own. You need to play aranaras/jungle and golden slumber/desert in order to understand what is going on in there, who is deshret specifically, dendro archon origins, zandik/dottore origins, etc. The main narrative itself (archon quest), especially after irminsul reform, is incomplete.
Starting in fontaine, they managed to split up these narrative by making archon quest story as its own while world quest story are interconnected with each other

No Gacha is worth getting into after one week of its release. The only way you are going to "catch up" is by spending and that is what you want to avoid at all cost in Gachas. Spending in Gachas has basically no limit and because of dark patterns it make you more likely to spend in the future. So if you plan on playing a Gacha, get in early or don't get in at all.

it is mostly fine, it just depends on how much you care about the story, while there has been talks to make old events playable again about 2 years back nothing as really come of it, even then about 95%+ of the story content is still there, the issue is you missed out on some event weapons that are rarely the best option outside of niche situations.

>>729190570
I would say no. Genshin has been out for long enough that they are not releasing any more standalone good characters that are generally good across multiple usecases. Every character belongs to a hyper-specific team comp, every character needs another to bring out their best.

Which is terrible for free to play and most of dolphin tier users. I'd say skip desu.
>>
>>729204028
think that hyper specific bullshit started about 6 months back roughly when Skirk came out.

Natlan with Nightsoul bullshit while kinda stupid was mostly versatile with characters like Xilonen.

the bigger issue is they are creating problems with bullshit enemies to put in Stygian Onslaight and selling the solution where if you didn't buy it is 2-3x harder, guess they got tired of people just brute forcing mechanics.

I haven't played since completing Fontaine's archon quest. It was so kino I felt it was a great spot to leave at.
Are they still running 2 limited banners? Are the level caps still 90? Have they fixed Benny's C6?

There is literally no reason to play Genshin over Wuthering Waves, and soon Arknights Endfield.

Genshin has superior music, story, character design, and landscapes than Wuwa. Wuwa does have better combat and exploration though.

no but you have to be a whale to get 95/100, it was a pretty disappointing system overall and nobody cares about it. it's just like crowning talents

no but the latest limited character likes it. still not activating it though lmao. I'm playing the long game boys

Different guy, but there are enough characters now to be constantly running three banners or the chronicled wish one.
Also holding off on c6ing Benny due to my c6 Lynette not liking it.

LMAO, there's no point when the game become more stingy while C0R1 or C1 become mandatory for the characters to be COMPLETE.
Doesn't even including the teammates who also need C0R1 or C1

>>729203724
Its not just old windtrace. its another natlanslop under the guise of 'windtrace'. They put xilonen and varesa with this impression that they are going to be the next inter-region guest for current event, but then the event itself is filled with yet another natlan slop lore in the first half, (even though the other was about not-direddith, but still, its annoying). I just want to spend some time with amber or other mondstadt character, like forget about natlan already, we're in nod krai right now, this even took place in mondstadt, stop forcing natlan in here ffsake

>>
>>729211891
Exactly (at least me).
I've jerked off to Granblue, FGO, BA, Genshin, Star Rail, Snowbreak and many other gacha games, yet the closest thing to a gacha game I've ever touched were card games.
>>
>>729190719
that's retarded and actually the complete opposite.
there are finite amount of pulling resources(primos) you can extract from the world, people who started early spent them on old outdated characters. while if you start fresh you get to spend all of them on current ones.
but even that gap is being lowered by them directly buffing and changing old character for the first time in the games history in the last patch.

IIRC when they released him he was like he is now but did less damage, had a weak shield, and didn't have res shred. Total meme. The buffed him a couple of months later I think it was.

>>729190570
Fuck no. It's only gotten worse over the years. It's not a matter of whether you can catch up or not(you can) but whether you should bother playing it in the first place. And the answer is no, mostly because of absolute dogshit writing and the game's insistence on force feeding it to you. It's a massive drag.

As someone who started playing around new year 2024. Hell no if you have middling to bad luck, sure if you're filled with luck. After sinking potentially 4 Ayakas worth of fates into getting ONE SINGULAR Ayaka after waiting a year and a half for her, I'm not pleased with walls of text the game featuring FOMO.
The exploration is fun for a while though, but eventually it gets old. And I am so sick of the characters going on and on about food every goddamn scene. Except Neuv's autistic water rants those are funny.
>>
>>729213056
Do private servers have a skip button? Serious question.
>>
how bad is the power creep for new players?
>>
>>729213336
Less bad than it is for older players since you just roll the new shit and have more resources to toss into the gacha. The real gate keeper is farming artifacts and that's total ass whether you are new or old.
>>
>>729190570
Yeah it is
One of the only anime game with a truly anime artstyle, the game has gorgeous landscapes and a very cozy feeling
Exploration is fun
Team building is fun, combat is simple yet satisfying
The one bad thing is the writing though, it's real bad but sometimes it's actually decent (very rarely though)
>>
>>729213336
If you consider having certain characters to unlock the game mechanics as a powercreep, then yes.
>>
>>729213336
The baseline of 'clear this monthly battle content to receive gacha currency' will always remain very easy. Endgame content for bragging purposes and minor rewards is hard to catch up on.
>>
>>729213203
Quests aren’t on by default but if you get caught in a cutscene, you can’t skip it. Does that count?
>>
>>729190570
No, you missed every single event so far and mihoyo autistically refuses to rerun them. A lot of them have important character and story developments and the game assumes you know what happened in them. Also, some of the event reward weapons are better than 5* limited banner ones on certain characters.
>>
>>729190570
roll for who you like, play with what you get. Better yet, just enjoy single player games that don't prey on your wallets.

Why did Genshin's music never get an award?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJxm7AKE2mI
>>
>>729217047
Because they used orchestra
>>
>>729190570
That depends on what you're expecting from it.
If you plan to get all the characters or minmax a team or get very specific characters that's gonna take a long time. If you just want a big world to run around in and explore and maybe pick up some characters you like along the way then it's fine.
>>
>>729191615
I didn't like Inazuma. I hate natlan. Everything else I absolutely love
>>
>>729190780
Ignoring the game and jerking off to the characters is the only right and ethical way to consume gacha
>>
Oldfag here, who would be a good pick for newfriends? I'd say you can't miss with Mavuika, Varesa and Zhongli. Maybe Kazuha for the fun mechanics too.
>>
>>729217439
Kazuha is so outdated man
>>
>>729217439
Furina's not too shabby, though with her, you also want a decent full party healer as well. Columbina might be better though. She works well with bloom, and bloom is one of the more beginner-friendly reactions.
>>
>>729217565
The absolute fucking state of the entire anemo element is outdated. Like 90% of its characters hang on for dear life with a single artifact set from 1.0 while Scroll characters eat their lunch.
>>
>>729217667
Oh yeah.
>new 4* anemo drops
>have to spend artifacts for VV pieces again instead of more useful, recent sets
>>
>>729217667
Yeah, the should bite the fucking bullet and make that res shred inherent to swirling and change the artifact set to something else.
>>
>>729217439
If they keep running Varesa with the two core 4-stars needed to make her best team, then she might be the most bang for your buck in the whole game
Mavuika's obviously super strong but for a newcomer she'd be handicapped pretty hard without more Nightsoul characters not named Kachina, and wants some combination of premium off-field cryo app or 4-stars with constellations
>>
>>729202220
They damn near have the exact same kit. Lots of water application with good damage and a shitload of buffs.
>>
>>729217941
Sort of. Furina isn't great for transformative reactions, meaning she doesn't do a whole lot for Swirl, Electro-Charged, Bloom and Hyperbloom. There are other reactions that she doesn't work for either, like Superconduct, but you wouldn't use her for those anyway. Columbina is probably built to specialize in Lunar reactions, which almost definitely means she's gonna work for Bloom and Electro-Charged, since otherwise she'd have little compatibility with Lauma and Flins.
>>
>>729190570
Why wouldn't it be? It's not like they've changed the gameplay, which is the only thing that would cause this.

You have a lot of catching up to do, though.
>>
>>729218125
>Swirl, Electro-Charged, Bloom and Hyperbloom
All faggot shit that does no damage anyhow so who cares

I want to roll for Zimbabwe but I don't know if I will also need Columbina to boost her, and skipping her may mean that I will have half a character if Columbina ends up being a significant damage boost to her. That's the only thing I hate about this game.
>>
>>729218235
Seriously, I don't get why so many people ask this question for PvE games.

If there's an actual problem that's so clear and prevalent that it's killing the playerbase, five minutes of research will tell you about it.
>The playerbase is dropping.
That's just general gacha fatigue. There's nothing that gacha devs can do about it.
>>
I just started playing genshin and desu it's boring and has too many sub menu things to fuck with, I had the game yelling at me implying my characters were underleveled and that I needed to go get some shit to level up my weapons, and some were special items that needed weird shit to ascend so I had to switch to standard weapons.
Game could be good but like every gacha they make everything complicated to have more avenues for upselling.
It's also boringly inoffensive and fucking easy. I'll see how long it holds my interest but at this rate I'll drop it again after a month like last time I tried it out
>>
what are the chances they expand sumeru? we're getting dorman port and blackcliff somewhere next year.

Mavuika for sure
she is the strongest and as well the most mechanically demanding one but you will not be regretting investing into her.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHYHLkfZlME

Kazhua still has nice syngeries but you need heavy investment into Xianyun as well as other 5 star supports, otherwise he's just an EQ bot.

The rest are memes not worth it in the long term.

>>729221452
Apply the NNFix command to parts that look wrong
Change "ps-t0" to "this" for any textures marked FaceHeadsomethingsomething
>>
The awkward thing about Mavuika is how much she's reliant on Nightsoul. You do kinda want a team of Natlan characters for her since she can't recover energy normally.
>>
>>729206759
I started last year. The best part of Genshin is the map and world quests so all of that is still in the game.

All the time events I've been on are terrible, waste of time divorced from the plot.

That just means that they didn't care about that kind of detail, not everything you don't like about some drawing is because of AI.
