where did it all go so wrong
Gacha shouldn't go on forever
>>736774536the moment they chose not to make Mona the main character.
>>736774536Why can’t they just make it a single player offline game for like $60 with seasons as $20 dlcs
>>736774687because "Free with infinity dollars of DLC" just does way better. If Genshin had been a $60 game with regular gameplay it probably wouldn't have made 1% of the money it made as a freemium gacha.
tried playing new patch was literally cutscene after every 5 feet there was no exploration
>>736774536The very moment they decided to push black culture into genshin since natlan I'm sure
>>736774687That would be more expensive since there is new content every two months.
>>736774536Why are all the shadows being cast in totally different directions
It had to be Inazuma right? That was certainly the beginning of the end. We've been on a conveyor belt all through Sumeru, Fontaine and Natlan
>>736776161chandelier up top
>>736777708>it's still up there all this time laterthe knights are lazy af
>>736774536day 1
>>736777708That's not where I thought that was going. I thought they fucked and her sword ended up on the ceiling and they were making excuses to fuck again.
>>736774536>>736776323Inazuma solidified the archon quest format of X.0 being great, and everything after being dogshit. This has been true ever since. The game itself has been on a downward slope forever because it’s trying to appeal to diametrically opposed crowds and it cannot please everyone.
>>736778167Natlan had a slow start to a great conclusion though? Nod Krai was good all around from start to finish. Fontaine depends entirely on how you viewed the court scenes but in my opinion it had a strong start and finish, the middle at the prison sucked. Sumeru was probably the same. Strong start and finish with a slow middle.
>>736774536The CCP-approved outfit revisions as pictured, for one.
>>736778238I feel like the only one but I think Fontaine is really overrated. Underwater was great though.
What are you talking about?Look what 5 gorillion shekels gives you, this impeccable cinematic that showcases the amazing new region.
>>736778443did nod krai have more fmvs than usual?
>>736778504ah nvm I'm probably just thinking that because they merged the character quests(which I usually do way later) with the main story, so it felt like they were back to back to back.
If I can’t skip your dialogue I shant plantIf I can’t skip your dialogue you won’t get my moneyIf I can’t skip your dialogue I will never returnI will not read your shitty dialogueI will not watch your shitty cutscenesBut you say that I have toSo, it’s quite simpleI will not play your game
>>736778443>F4TH4N
>>736774536It has been shit ever since we left Inazuma>SumeruStraight trash that almost killed the game>FontaineA bit better, good characters but a little boring >NatlanDisney slop>Nod KraiA mish mash of inconsistent tone and ideas. Undiluted "Hoyo slop" if you will
>>736779119>didn't even play natlan or nod krai
>>736774536Left the game for the first time during MeropideCame back and finished Fountain when they announced the new area, really like the underwater new area, the floating cube area was also fun.Start new area, movement options on the new characters turn out to be kind of a scam, but meh, whatever.Didn't like the nigger culture apologism in that area, but meh, whateverDidn't like most new characters being clearly ZZZ's rejected pile dropped in a different setting, but meh, whatever.Get fucking hyped when we apparently going back on that "the sky fake" shit teased 6 millions years ago by Scara.Left the game for good when the Pyro Archon started doing Devil May Cry shit with a fucking modern motorbike.I don't regret coming back to clear Fountain, but fucking hell should I have stopped immediately afterward instead of ruining the opinion I had of the game.I can't even get myself to try the new shit they added for old character, I log in and I just feel emptiness looking at the screen. Fucking turd area made the game completely dead to me.
>>736774536natlanit went wrong at natlan
>>736774536ill never understand how genshin even got so popular with how bland all its designs are
>>736779718>play game for long time>end up hating it for random reasonskek that sucks
>>736779806If you play the game you'll understand before too long.
>>736779356but I did
>>73677468780% of their playerbase are third worlders with samsung phones
>>736774687>why wont they not make billions of dollarsthat can't even fund the amount of development they do
>>736779806>decent exploration game>free>run on a relative potato
>>736779806not just that, it's been stagnant for fucking years
>>736780147lol
>>736774789>Free with infinity dollars of DLCHoly fuck, that really is a great way to describe gachashit.
how does game make people so fucking salty
>>736780256it's tendies mostly, it's the game of the decade but it never came to switch and it copied botw a bit
>>736780416actual jeet-tier image
>>736774639made for old hags
>>736780452
>>736780416It's not even a real video game.
>>736781261see? mad tendies
>>736781629Oh no the genkek called me a tendie I totally did not see this coming how will I ever recover from this.
>>736781740
>>736774536To be fair the game's been going on for 5 years, I can't blame the devs for getting bored of the original aesthetic and just using the game as a playground for random design ideas.As for gameplay, it became clear that the DPS output is the only thing playerbase cares about, so there's really no point in putting the effort into designing areas or challenges anymore.It's still quite impressive they've managed to keep putting out so much quality content for so long before they've ultimately given up, most devs can't even release a game with that level of quality, let alone keep it going for years.
The removal of fishing and event weapons are annoying too
>>736782727neither of those have been removed
>>736782856The last fishing weapon was in fontaine
>>736782926you said fishing AND event weapons, you didn't say you were talking about weapons you get from fishing(an awful idea btw)
>>736779718Are you literally me anon? I could tolerate cat bimbo with rollerskates, i could tolerate the little girl with a drill as her vehicle, hell i could even tolerate the cowboy girl with the flying revolver, but goddamn the bike just fucking killed the entire game for me, it really did, the magic died that day, and even though i tried to keep going, the game was just dead, i don't even give a shit about the Tsaritsa anymore which is amazing considering i waited for her for almost 5 years, goddamn i fucking hate the stupid bike, writing this post made me seethe about it again, whoever approved that shit deserves to be shoved a pineapple up his ass.
>>736774536idgi
Any early builds for these 6.6 characters?
>>736774536soul>>736783428soulless
>>736779806Sometime you just need a very autistic teen to fall in love.
>>736774536christ sake they have the xact same body>>736774687because it's not a game it's a jpg casino
>>736774536Long-running games inevitably start buckling under all the added weight over the years. You'd think someone would look at MMORPGs running for 20+ years to see what they've done about it.
>>736785931too bad she's evil now
>>736786008>now needing & deserving twice the spankingAn improvement for sure.Fischl rhyme with Paddle.
>>736774687because no one wants to pay 1k for dlcs when i they can have it for free
this year HAS to be when genshin dies, right sisters? what smear campaign should we do now?
For me, it's Arlecchino with all the smaller male characters
