The CEO of Hoyoverse, Da Wei, mentioned that he wishes that the Honkai series would, one day, become as popular as the Final Fantasy series. Will Hoyoverse be able to pull it off?
>*laugh track*
>>736487693>Gacha>MainstreamAs shitt as FF is right now, no.
>>736487693didn't it already achieve that with Genshin Impact? I think in order to really put their foot in the door they would need to change the game model, Gachas are a dime a dozen and there are so many it's a saturated market. If they were going to try something like that, they should start with a small project on the side and playtest it until they figure out a formula that people like playing for a sustained amount of time.
>>736487693For starters they would need to completely remove the gacha element and make a fully singleplayer game
>>736487858I mentioned Honkai Star Rail, not Genshin Impact. Huge plans are coming to HSR soon this anniversary
>>736487693>Will Hoyoverse be able to pull it off?No, because their games never end and have bad writing.
>>736487693HSR and HI3 are pozzed shitGenshin and ZZZ are doing their own thing, I'd rather have them
>>736487693do you know da wei?
>>736487693With online gacha with infinite evens? No. Never. If he were to start releasing complete games then yes
>>736487693>>736487952>Huge plans are coming to HSR soon this anniversaryI reckon this is an attempt for one last "trust us guys, this time SURELY..." pump and dump of their playerbase.Also they will never ever become as popular as FF because HSR's entire shtick is to tell a story based around units that they're currently trying to sell. Once their patch cycle ends, you literally never see them again.Gameplay also has next to no nuance. It just boils down to "do more damage".Honestly, Hoyo is like peak souless trash for literal brainlet children.
>>736487693they're never going to accomplish such a feat without abandoning gacha
