Where's the hype for Snezhnaya?
>>744588118I dropped the game after fontaine was so shit and I realized they didn't care about the lore.
>>744588118Isnt this game gay? I thought heterosexual men were playing wuwa or whatever since you get a self insert harem
>>744588405>wuthering jeetsSure if you're indian.
>>744588118i dropped the game after they stopped making lolis
>>744588405>he's not up to datethat game lost its teeth
Something went VERY wrong with the game around/after Sumeru.
>>744588669Sumeru was the last good region. Fontaine was male slop central.
>>744588118That livestream was garbage, hoyo cares more about Miliastra Wonderland than Genshin. Pretty soon Genshin will just be a dlc to Miliastra Wonderland.
>>744588758>Sumeru was the last good region. Fontaine was male slop centralLol, doesn't mention an entire year of nothing but male banners that happend in Sumeru. And Sumeru is the reason the maps are smaller with less exploration. Because people complained about its endless empty deserts, and underground exploration.
>>744589262no one cares about miliastra but they push it out of sunk cost
>>744588669Something went very wrong during Inazuma, you've just been trained to consume slop.
>>744591095The Inazuma AQ may have been a clusterfuck but it still felt like Genshin, plus the Inazuma year also included Enkanomiya and Chasm.
Snezhnaya's live stream had the most people watching since Sumeru
buncha salty bitches itt
>>744588405straights are playing NTE now sir
>>744588236That was me as well but came back a bit for Natlan and it was pretty fun. They really should have turned more into exploration kino.>>744590019That was basically when they started their big push to bring in women and its also where they introduced dragons into the main narrative (so they could have more dudes since the archons that were left were all girls). Neuvillette was kind of their magnus opus for getting the panties wet because>Story revolves around him>Multiple scenes that make him look really powerful >Cries a lot>Character quest involved all the characters in Fontaine save Furina>Was meta defining to the point that he is the reason Genshin had to introduce hardcore powercreepThey basically never did anything like it again to the point they rewrote Natlan and relegated Dragon shit to a world quest and shilled Mavuika. Early leaks had Xbalanque basically usurp the Pyro Archon.
>>744588236Funny thing is, there's so much lore in Nodkrai that everything up to that point looks like mindless filler lol. 6 years for only now to find out who even Traveler is.
>>744590019>cast out the female archon for a male archon and make the entire season revolve around this single male>worse than fucking kavehShut the fuck up.
>>744588118>Used-goodszhnaya
>>744588758>Fontaine was male slop central.>Literally only 2 male 5*What gay new narrative is this? Fontaine was packed with the best waives.
>>744591658I didn't like fontaine either retard, but stop acting like Sumeru was that great.
>>744591992Fontaines story literally revolved around a male. The female archon is killed so the male can step on her corpse. The entire region is the writers masturbating over the sole male in the region. It's absolute GARBAGE for male slobbering femcels.
>>744592276Sorry chud but we PAY
>>744591992It seems to be a new schizo misrepresenting most of Fontaine’s story.
>still no skip button
>>744592352Kek
>>744588758Sumeru was the first good regionSumeru>Nod Krai>Fontaine=Natlan>Inazuma>Mondstat>Liyue
>>744592276>Fontaines story literally revolved around a male.>Neuvillette doesn't even have a character quest all focused on some melusine>female archon still alive after the quest>female archon has a whole festival arc while neuvillette barely cameos in lantern ritehuh?
>>744592276Meds schizo
>>744592374this
>>744588118I only recently entered nod krai
>>744592374This feature makes faggots seethe so muchYou WILL read the retconned slop and you WILL be happy
>>744592472Just ignore him. He was talking about how “Furina was thrown out right after the Male took over” a day or two ago. Ignoring that the story straight up says that Neuv and the normal Fontainians all wanted Furina to stick around and it was her that chose to leave and get her own place.
>>744592472>is the focus of every chapter in the region>female archon is aliveShe literally dies did you not play the game? Furina is her water blob hench person and she's basically forgotten once Neuviltroon gets to power.>festival arcFurina is not the archon. Neuvillette is since he regained all his dragon nigger powers.
>>744588118All these shitty anime character designs look the same. I can't even tell what game this is its literally all the same shit
they keep talking about how some major character is a ftm trans spirit and the archon is a blatant non-virgin yeah i'm not interested anymore
>>744592374I could tolerate no skip button if there wasn't dead air between every other line as we wait for animations to play out. It's bad enough having to spam click through dialogue without the constant pauses making everything take twice as long.
Sandrone post
>>744588118Sandrone is so fucking cute. This summer event essentially being a character quest for her makes the lack of a summer event area much more forgivable.
>>744592276Sumeru was made from the ground up to be the female region bwo>Cyno + Tighnari homobait, they even have an adopted "daughter" in Collei(who is yurishipped with Amber)>Alhaitham and Kaveh, nuff said>Dehya is a standard brick and only exists to be yurishipped with her NPC mistress>Nahida is a fujo selfinsert who ships all her dendro boys and mothers Scaramouche(female fan favorite character)>Scaramouche is there for the Yumes(and the fujos who want to see him raped by Dottore or shipped with Kazuha)>>Candace does not exist(but is yurishipped with Dehya)>Nilou is just kinda thereAlmost every single Sumeru character has a gay ship that the devs intentionally came up with, it's unreal.
>>744593028>Forgotten>Furina is still the most popular person in the country>The archon quest’s entire plot was Furina’s other self’s manipulation of fucking everybody including Neuvilette to make him have no choice but to save Fontaine>Neuvilette gave all the credit for what happened to herAlso you keep saying Neuv is an archon but he’s explicitly not one.
>>744593392He is literally the archon. Archons get their powers from dragon nigger faggots. He's a dragon nigger faggot and get's his powers back once the real furina kills herself. DID YOU NOT PLAY THE GAME NIGGER?>>744593338No Sumeru was based. It had tons of hot women in skimpy outfits. Every male was a homo with another male. Every female was hot for the MC. Best story. Best cutscenes. Best music. Sumeru was the best region by a mile.Then along comes fontaine and the female archon literally kneels and kills herself so some fucking ugly ass male faggot can be archon.Absolute TRASH region.
>>744588118is zhognli still the most popular character?
>>744591992Technically there 3 (Wrio was a standard though) but the first two patches were all dudes after a string of dude banners. They back loaded all the female banners because their plan was to appeal to women early on when people are most interest in Genshin then have the waifus in the back patches because they had the guys on lock. The shock was they DIDN'T have them on lock at all so they had to do more waifu shilling for the entirety of 5.x. Furina's rerun was notably bad. >>744592472>>Neuvillette doesn't even have a character quest all focused on some melusineNo one had a big lore quest in Fontaine like the other regions got. His quest still featured the entire main cast save Furina. His was the closest to the shill quest I actually liked it for at least the fact there wasn't some big bad. Felt like an actual character quest
>>744588118there's a whole ass week until we get to russia, just fucking wait>>744593134you can speed that up in the settings
>>744593578so the world is flat?
>>744593567wormilette is a sovereign, anon, archons are explicitly chosen by the heavenly principles
>>744588118I don't play this slop I just plap to the BLACKED ballbusting breathplay NTR HMVs
>>744591442got my iroi todayyaaaaay
>>744593810>Technically there 3I forgot Lyney existed lol
>>744594003He's the archon equivalent of fontaine. He has the archon powers of fontaine. When the bitch died she gave him back his powers. DID YOU PLAY THE FUCKING GAME YOU STUPID JEET?
>>744593567No he’s an elemental sovereign. Archons were a position that Celestia created to put a transcendent being in charge of an element using a gnosis filled with sovereign authority as a symbol. Seven thrones for seven archons. Focalors’ whole plot revolved around gathering power to shatter the entire existence of a hydro archon thus allowing Neuvilette to regain his power. As an example here. Nahida is the dendro archon chosen by Celestia. Apep is the dragon dendro sovereign. Even if Nahida wanted to, she can’t give Apep back her authority because it is still locked in the position of Archon created by Celestia.
>>744588118What? Is this that fortnite thing?
>>744588118I’m very hype I’m just nit talking about it on /v/ because you niggas are negative about everything
>>744594136>shatter the entire existence of a hydro archon thus allowing Neuvilette to regain his power.>you're rightI know I fucking am you seething pedophile faggot.
>>744588118Gone along with the Tsarita's hymen. I dropped the game after that trailer came out. What's funnier is that I saw some people come out with plausible theories that could still make her a mother and a virgin, but then apparently the Livestream confirmed her as the third descender's wife..
>>744588758God I’m so happy we’re getting long quests like golden slumber again
>>744593392>Also you keep saying Neuv is an archon but he’s explicitly not one.NTA and yes, you are correct. I think what anon is getting at is that Neuv gets the archon's powers so he's defacto the archon. The meta issue is that the whole point of the Dragons was to be another group alongside the archons who could be cool, lore relevant and "must pulls". They basically wrote dragons out of the main story when Natlan was set up to all be about dragons and then when we get there, they are all shoved into a world quest and we're palling around with the Archon who is the actual archon and we're going to make sure that's very clear from the outset.Furina is in a weird spot where, for marketing reason, she's the archon but in universe she's not.
>>744594082I think everyone forgot that character existed lol
>>744594261Yes you are wrong. She destroyed the position of Archon. There is no more Hydro Archon. The position doesn’t exist anymore. Neuvilette is a dragon sovereign that has regained his power.
>>744591597the problem is I don't like the answers we're now getting.They're either lame or all now super-sci fi ingrained.
>>744594428>I'm right>yesExactly. She killed herself and gave her powers and authority to neuviltroon who is now the ruler and archon of fontaine. Kill yourself.
>>744594348We learned in Enkanomiya that the hydro dragon would be reborn as human so we assumed he or she would be playable in the future. Apep being a fuck huge dragon kind of killed the idea that the other sovereigns would be playable since the game deliberately mentioned that the hydro dragon was an exception because pure hydro vishaps no longer existed.
>>744594428Plus he can make hydro visions now and gave one to furina now that she is technically a “ normal” human now still wondering does she age now or what
>>744594549>>744594428Are you just replying to yourself to start a pointless argument?
>>744594619She should age now. The reason she didn’t was because of Focalors cursing her own human body at the same time she split her memories out to create her self inside the judge machine. Furina was Focalors’ human body and soul without the memories or archon powers.
>>744594619He technically just hijacked the celestia system. One of his story things mentions that the celestia system for visions is basically automatic in taking power from the gnosis dragon authority to grant a small piece to people that qualify. So hydro visions could entirely cease to exist if Neuvilette wanted to do so.
>>744588118>AI generated designs>more black culture for 3rd year in a row>censored music(latin lyrics for russians songs LMAO)It's dead on arrival
>>744588118So apparently this is the most popular character in the game now. Why? Far as looks go she's kinda mid.>>744588758>calling Fontaine male slop when Sumeru had a flood of males with the only female being designed to fail
i want to fuck melusines
>>744595101>Uhhh your nahida? nilou?Mogged by the deer only Nilou is semi relevant now.
>>744595327>nahida is still premium in nefer, lauma, colmbina teamsUHHHH FEMCEL YOU ARE ARE A RETARD AND YOUR YEAST INFECTION IS MAKING YOU MORE RETARDED.
>>744588405lmao
>>744595547WuWa is the last game a Genshitter should meme about cucking
>>744595547they really can't make anything without copying genshin huh...
>>744595547Billions of jeets shat themselves
>>744594586A lot of the leaks before Natlan mentioned a lot of the dragons being playable with the Pyro one being on equal footing with the archon. They had been usually good at figure out who the new characters were going to be (such as Wrio who wasn't any the original Fontaine image leak but they knew about him). The Natlan characters "leaked", including shit about more souvenir characters, was completely wrong. In fact, I don't think any of the characters leaked before hand. The leaks could have been bullshit but seeing as they went from teasing Dragons heavily for Natlan and then basically not mattering (as well as the livestream basically apologizing for the state of the game) tells me something changed and maybe these original leaks were onto something. You're probably right about the lore but Mihoyo has been so back and forth about it and I think shilling characters came first. They would have just had human forms like the Adeptus already do. My point in all of this is that Dragons were a way for Mihoyo to have very power lore characters while getting around the fact that the rest of the archons were girls. The dragon push was when they were doing nonstop male banners as well.
>>744595453>still premium in nefer, lauma, colmbina teams>swap nahida for kokomi>same resultCopium full swing alfagtham was always shit too.
>>744595782>she doesn't have m2 needaYou have a permanent yeast infection if you're that stupid.
>>744595547>mfw this is an actual, real, genuine screenshot from the game
>>744594278>theories that could still make her a mother and a virginWhat a bunch of delusional retards. Bitch got porked harder then Snezhnayan mobik.
>>744595676anon, wuwa fell off hard
>>744588118Left sometime during Nod Krai nonsense, came back for the dance event only to see them censoring Barbara's cleavage in event art. Whatever was the original vision for this game has clearly been gone for a long while.
>"Exploration" Is just you opening chests randomly scattered across the map>Said chests aren't even well hidden>Game plays for itself and spoon feeds the answer to every riddle and puzzle for youThis is good exploration according to the GenjeetsBut that is to be expected since they quiet literally do not play any other game
>>744593918yeah
>exploration getting more simple and boring every region (except Natlan was better than Fontaine)>new region isn't a mystery at all>story can be 99% predicted now>the new characters aren't appealing and a lot of characters are ones we already know>getting sick of racist shill mechanicsAnd most importantly>not a single loliI'll still play it, but my expectations are low.
>>744596053Don't worry they removed chests too in later areas
>>744596053>they quiet literally do notsaar redeem your exploration bloody benchod!
/gig/ coded thread, I expected better just go next
>>744596146Why do you hate your own race, Genjeet?
>>744596229i'm immune to your shitposts, as i am here only for fun and not to wage war against other gachatards
>>744595880>m2 needawtf is an m2? I do have c1R1 Lauma and she's like 2 nahidas in one.
I dropped it in Natlan, that shit was ass. Some of the stuff I've heard about since seems kinda cool, but it's too late, I don't care anymore.
>>744594083soveregins are more powerful than archons since they don't need a gnosis buttplug and have direct authority over their elementsettle down, okay?
I'm not returning until they start adding old story events as permanent content. I'm tired of both main plot and events referring to lore and characters that were relevant years ago in limited time events I never got to play, and constantly feeling like I need to log in and do everything in order to not miss out.Also, I want underwater sections back. Fontaine was the comfiest region in the game.
>>744596398see you in next thread
>>744596474you won't
>>744596228If she dies I will quit.
>>744595880>m2What is m2?
>>744596784with how her model looks I'm not sure, my gut instinct says not playable but on the other hand it has way more detail than the moon sisters for example. It's in a strange limbo where it's not enough for a clearly playable character but also too much for a soon to die NPC
Got Columbina today. Is she still worth it? I have the horse and the deer
hoyo fucked up trying to hamfist that ugc into genshin that was the final nail in the coffin
>>744596449You're in for a major disappointment if you expect any kind of continuity improvements when it comes to story. The game as it is now is just a vessel for dick (wallet) measuring contests that are the three endgame modes. These hack just casually let me do the Fontaine event and go through the whole reunion thing with Sandrone despite me never doing the Nod Krai story where she supposedly dies. I guess the (unskippable) story is only there to fuel the sunk cost fallacy for the whales. Also my Liyue is apparently in permanent Larnern Rite mode now because of some stupid quest that got randomly triggered and that I have no intention of ever finishing.Small indie company btw.
>>744597117since you have those 2, yeah
>>744597208Nigger just play the fucking story. Starting with Natlan the game is pretty much contentless in series of 3 empty months because maps are shitty 2 hour tunnels.
>>744597451I don't play the main story anymore. I realized that's the one part of the game that I really don't enjoy and they won't let me skip it, so I simply don't do it anymore.
>>744588118I have no idea which slop this is
>>744596449I've never understood why hoyo does this, put relevant lore in limited time events, or some random note, or letter in an area that most people miss.
>>744595759Are you seriously looking at leaks that were saying shit like Childe would get killed by Scaramouche in Inazuma. Leaks for Genshin have always been complete bullshit.
>>744588118Died in nod krai
>>744597848Nod Krai was better than Natlan though
>>744597931The bar could not get lower after Natlan
natlan was good tho
>>744597027Her model looks the worst of all the models in trailer. I really hope it's just badly picked lighting, but it looked 10 times worse than her official art, wtf. Even that goofy 4 star from the animated trailer looks like a gigachad in game. Wtf are they doing.
>>744590019the underground labyrinths are awful. i still to this day dont have all waypoint unlocked there and even one domain is still locked. horrible
>>744598034Truke
>>744597931Wrong, Natlan was much better, bigger, and more fun.
>>744598080>>744598180>
>>744598308Go white boy, go!
>>744598180>Natlan was much better, bigger, and more fun.Yeah if you are a shitterbaby that likes being handheld by movement gimmicks and npcs doing quests for you it has less content than monstad or Inazuma which are the smallest countries.
>>744598308>playing as male MCAs expected of someone who like Nod Krai more. You barely even play the game.
>>744598146Yeah, sometimes I'll go back to the older regions just to knock about, kill time. But not those horrible underground labyrinths, never.
maybe I'm slow but I just realized the sibling lost their memories when they left Asmoday's funhouse
>>744598368Natlan is worse than what came before it, but it's better than Nod Krai. Genshin exploration peaked in the Sumeru desert, before handholding map layers.
>>744598486And only then dropped into khaenria? That doesn't make sense.
>>744588236Weird flex hating on Fontaine when Natlan is right there.
>>744597027eh if she's playable it's practically guaranteed that she steps down from being a shade (or is forced to do so) which would come with a model change
Nodkrai has the worst exploration in the game so it's worse than Natlan, I don't give a fuck about the 20 hours of AI generated forced character stories
>>744596449best they have done is retained a few of the newer major events, nothing on the old events yet and im pretty sure they said something all the way back during i think a Fontaine livestream that they were working on it but were not sure if the quality of the old events would be good enough to be permanent and would likely only do major events if they did, still that was *years* ago now.think the Natlan Summer event from last year, the newest Summer event, and i forgot the one between them that are the ones they saved as permanent so far.
>>744598693goddamnit why do all my favourites get a new model if I like them as they are
>>744598374>Making fun of shitlan by posting a .webm means I made it myself
>>744598773>Nodkrai has the worst exploration in the game so it's worse than NatlanIn nod krai at least I could move around and find secretive shit on my own Natlan flat out has an npc appearing every two steps shoving you into a 5 minute quest to explain you obvious shit and complete 20% of the map for you and to top it of movement advantage that rewards you massive chests just for breathing.
>>744598146the underground shit is a lot better now as they retroactively added underground maps i think a year or two ago? pretty vital for Sumeru but i wouldn't be surprised if people didn't know as Sumeru was quite old and busted by then.
>>744598987>complete 20% of the map for you and to top it of movement advantage that rewards you massive chests just for breathing.Those were the worst areas of Natlan yes, and they copied them in Nod Krai
>>744591597It's turning into lost where they just keep retconning and adding shit then end off on a massive disappointment
>>744597208>the main reason to play the game is story and lorefaggotry>skipper complains>they let you quick access new events and break continuity so you won't bitch>you complain even moreI don't get it
>>744591336S-Shut up! Dead game! We paid a lot to astroturf youtube and xitter, okay? Genshin is dead.
>>744599335>No skip buttonI shan't be reading retconned slop
>>744598643Why not? It's probably how khaenrian fuckers managed to brainwash our twin into helping them, since twin's mind was wiped after leaving temple of space
>>744599208>and they copied them in Nod KraiNo they didn't precisely in NK the blue exclamation marks were back where I could ignore the quests to explore while in Natlan there is barely any because world quest npcs ambush you every step.
>>744588118They ruined all hyped with forced furshit.
>>744596080ok, but who is paimon
>>744599943i don't follow the lore too close so i might be wrong here but it seems like the most obvious thing was true, she is probably the unknown god from the opening, the ruler of space of the four heavenly principles and somehow lost their powers and memories sorta like Guoba used to be the god of the stove. would explain why the ruler of death is so interested.since there is some paimon focus in the 7.0 livestream maybe they will actually make it clear.
>>744599943seed of phanes
>>744599943An annoying flying slug
>>744599943well wouldn't you like to know weatherboy
>Niglan
fucking amazing
>>744601331retarded looking iron sights wt actual f
>>744601331i can fap to that
>>744601520>not having your iron sights as hooks to hang your weapon in the wardrobeyou'd get lynched on /fa/
>>744601520apparently you can mod that shitlike, actual modifications on a workbench
>>744598080Flying gun was fucking Kino
>>744600136Asmoday appears as a seperate character to Paimon at the end of the Temple of Space. They're obviously related but not the same.
>>744596784Lol, this bitch just exists to job to Pierro and the Tsarista's plans. She's the Shades equivalent to Rosalyn
>>744597793It varied. Some were just made up bullshit but some were things people knew (Kirara being an example but she was also one of those LOL GUESS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT things that got out of hand). Natlan was the region that kind of killed it off since nothing was fucking correct.
>>744588118>Where's the hype for Snezhnaya?everywhere?
>>744597793
>>744602389I wish that was her real design.
>>744591597this, it's a complete whiplash we should have had better for so much longer
>>744591597you're retarded as the reason nodkrai is so good is the buildup through the other nations
>>744602389RIP fanta furina
>>744602473shut the fuck up
>>744603000uh oh brown meltie
Do people really like mudhuts, the mary sue archon and down syndrome baby dinosaurs? Niglan is a shit
>>744598081this, and also I doubt any godlike beings will be playable whether it's ronova alice or even tsaritsa I'm fully expecting hoyo to cuck players all the way to Genshin 2nd Impact
You who will walk with us into the land of darkness, come! Let us create a new world togetherKnow that the destruction of all precedes the birth of a new orderOnly our Tsaritsa, Anastasya, shall usher in the perfect dawn
>>744604172the archon of love apparentlyget it? cause she's a mother
>>744604254it's because she's secretly PINK
>>744604127>I doubt any godlike beings will be playableI mean we already can play a dragon sovereign, an angel and hexenzirkel witch and an ancient demon dragon who was supposed to be dead + Childe's master who is an alien. Anything seems plausible by now.
>>744604460all women are pink somewhere
I stopped playing early into Nod Krai when I got that Egyptian lady
>>744604493The shades are above all of them. Unironically if you want to powerscale the traveller might be the single most powerful being being a real descender.
>>744604662>The shades are above all of themAren't dragon sovereigns and angels supposed to be on a similar powerlevel to shades? After all the war of the funerary flame was not one sided and even though the heavenly principles won it took a huge toll.
>>744604625i'm only still playing cuz i've been on it daily since raiden booba and i just have to see how the story ends at this point but every day it feels like more and more of a chore esp now that zzz is around and is just better in every way
>>744604967most of the soverigns are dead and/or MIA we only know about Apep and Neuvilette, neither of which have any capabilities to deal with a shade and that's for once deciding reason: They play under their rules. As long as they're in the firmament the shades have all the power because they are the rules. It's like trying to outplay gravity, you can't. The only ones who could match the shades used to be the moon sisters, but niebelung in his infinite wisdom stripped them of their power and imprisoned them before the war
>>744605176I didn't have it in me to do every patch and then it's all piled up, so I dropped it since no skip button during segments I don't care about. >zzzI wouldn't say every way, but it is better overall. I don't like ZZZ's corridor world. I'd rather it be like a city Endfield of sorts.
>>744605358>most of the soverigns are dead and/or MIAAnd HP is not much better>Went paranoid and had to vanish almost all it's angels>Sky nails double as life support to prevent the entirety of Teyvat from collapsing after the war and abyss infestation>Each nail forces HP to go in a coma>Shades can't enforce the rules because mom is asleep>Has to keep the frostmoon(before columbina merger) on life support because if not Teyvat collapsesidk man I just see shades as glorified archons/angels even in the trailer it appears traveler can pass through Ronova's base defence.

>level designer speaking about Snezhnaya>"Speaking of cold environments, many Travelers associate this with their experience on Dragonspine. While we do want the environment to feel immersive we also know that the Cold mechanic can be stressful to some Travelers. But in Snezhnaya there's no need to worry because we've switched to a different approach."God I hate what casuals did to this game with their constant complaining. Dragonspine --> Chasm was such a great era in terms of exploration. I can only imagine how good the game would be now if they kept the same design philosophy instead of dumbing everything down to pander to casuals and gambling addicts.
>>744599943
>>744598080>has the only Archon that flopped>it was good tho
My bikini Mualani mods are all broken, and I can't fix them.
The lore of this game is retarded>yeah so there's this guy just traveling through space and defeating everything he encounters and he's totally the strongest thing in existence because of uhm... reasons>oh btw the sky is fake and it's all SCI-FI bullshit and the mustace twirling villains were actually just misunderstood when they tried to murder everyone
>>744607390>I can only imagine how good the game would be now if they kept the same design philosophy instead of dumbing everything down to pander to casuals and gambling addicts.Let's be honest. It would have been a better game but also one with a shrinking fanbase.The reality of our world and the industry simply doesn't allow for such a thing. You need to pick between making money and making good games. At least in Genshin's case, they held out for a good bit longer than in Star Rail (which threw every aspiration at being more than the most generic game bar none, but now with proper 3D models and animations instead of JPEGs or cheap lopoly chibis) or ZZZ (hacking MC? Readable animations? Fighting game inputs and inspiration? FUUUUCK THAT, we WANT, nay REQUIRE swap-ult spam rotations with several layers of vaseline on the screen and anime bullshit movement so that you need a fucking slow-mo camera to even figure out what the fuck is your character doing to the enemy) whom both folded by v2.0 and v1.4, respectively.Sadly, good game design and dreams don't put food on the table and these games' ambitions can't be achieved with a budget of 5 cup ramens/employee 'ala Japanese games.
>>744588118i dont like shipbait, and i especially dont like gay shipbaitgame seems to want to go that route according to nodkrai and im not gonna stick arround to cry about it, and the fans arround the game are beyond asinine so, im ourit was fun, but im putting the game behind me
>>744608303Was the community wailing about how hard the puzzles in Mona's summer dungeon were the point where they gave up?
>>744607390>dying to childe after 5 years>2.2k likesThat pic actually ruined my evening. Fuck female players and fuck you too.
>>744608523nta but I remember redditfags mostly complaining about too many small treasure chests which would've easily been solved by having a treasure compass which was intoduced way later when the game was already nosediving in difficulty.
>>744608000trips for the birthday girl
>>744598652If he quit in Fontaine then he knows nothing about Natlan.
>>744608910Probably a mobile player.
>>744608303The ZZZ devs getting rid of the TVs without any backup plan completely fucked their future plans, but you can tell that they are still trying their best.Star Rail is just sad at this point, it's a blantant cash grab that shows no real effort to improve. Hope you're excited for a brand new path in 5.X!
>>744607390>we've switched to a different approachIt's literally the lantern from the Chasm, ie. you have a gadget to give you some buffer time before you freeze.
>>744588118If they add the Star Rail skip summaries to Genshin then I will come back to it. I just can't stomach all the arbitrary delays in the dialogue anymore.
>>744607390>Childe's riptide>big hitting weekly boss ability
>>744608523They were already wailing about the puzzles since the start of Inazuma, Apple Archipelago 2.0 was just a send-off but they had braindead "puzzles" ready within a month all across the giganigga nation of Sumeru.I.e. The decision to kill them came even earlier, they just had these ready to go by then so they left them in.The sad part is that I saw my brother playing one of those ""GOTYAY"" indies about an alien bug and seeing the puzzles I could only go "Mate, this shit is basically the same as puzzles in Genshin" to which he replied, correctly "You can't really call this a puzzle, really. Reading the instructions is the start and end of all thinking here." I think it's fair to the hoYoJew to bring up, so as to not pretend that they make puzzles uniquely retarded while "real games" have a real bar to cross. OG Genshin simply overshot into older game territory (those flying trials were so Harry Potter-coded I experienced nostalgia in a game I was playing for the first time) and then later corrected for modern vidya standards.
>>744608523it was inazuma as a wholethere were many memes about the puzzles getting too hard, so devs just gave up and made everything baby tier, even the time challenges have 1 or 2 extra minutes now compared to 1.0 ones from mond or liyue
>>744609161last patch made it so we don't have to wait for animations to finish before we move to the next dialog linemaybe they will retroactively do that for older content too if we won't get a skip button
Recently I've been thinking about what will happen with the game once the Khaenriah + epilogue chapters wrap up. Honkai 3rd has its own Part 2 integrated within the game, but current Genshin is 120+GB, I don't know how they're going to handle that file size going forward.
>>744609384
>>744609864Hey, Sumeru had those elemental reaction puzzles that were neatI heard they're bringing them back in Snezhnaya
>>744609091Yeah, I can tell ZZZ folks are trying and I still support and cheer for them. Even Genshin folks do, within the ever-tightening cage that is the routine they built for themselves.But while TV mode was obviously a hard call that had to be made, fucking up their whole fight design from the ground up wasn't. They set standards for the fight animations, promoted visibility and clarity of motion, etc. But when the TV thing hit thew threw all that out with the bathwater and started going full apeshit. Threw out the elemental damage system, gave everyone seperate ulti gauges, introduced whole-screen status effects and it's simply been piling on harder and harder ever since.Worst of all, this actively fucked up most OG characters. Because their animations were made readable, they are also slower and thus can't deal as much damage, push through enemy attacks with a billion invincibility frames that completely render all interactions with non-bosses null, etc.It's not all doom and gloom and certain portions of it are the kind of speedup that naturally appeared elsewhere (like SF2 to SF2 Turbo, Starcraft always played at max speed) but you can still have that and preserve at least some of the good standards they set at the beginning. But no, they simply reverted to what's kinda stripped down Genshin combat and started building on parries and push/hold button effects instead of elemental reactions.
>>744609702>I don't know how they're going to handle that file size going forwardIf they allowed people to remove past content it would help with the file size. You can already do it on mobile but not on PC for some reason.
>>744608486>game seems to want to go that route according to nodkrai you are mentally ill
>>744609238for reference dottore 2 has 8 million HP total
how can my KGB agent possibly be this cute?
>tranny janny leave up the genshin thread with the shitting on the game OP
>>744610297That's the meta. Or he doesn't know that Sandrone is a genshin character.
>>744610391the cat ears threw him off!
>>744610297You need to make a concern troll thread shitting on Genshin for the thread to stay up
>here is your signora, bro
>>744611061>here is your eula buffs, bro
>>744611061That's Eulayaka.
>>744610391>Or he doesn't know that Sandrone is a genshin character.Likely doesn't know Snezhnaya is a Genshin term which makes this thread immune to "ctrl-f genshin.">>744610254I feel like Rosgvardiya is more accurate. Unless you're talking about the maid behind her, in which case I agree she's FSB/KGB.
>>744611061snezhnayan ganyu
>>744588118they gave tsaritsa big ass instead of massive boobs. of course no one is hyped anymore.
>>744611061Griseo made it to Genshin!
>>744594987she's tsundere, also autistic. you wouldn't understand.
>>744594987How could you have played the game before and not seen Sandrone like 5 years ago on the Fatui trailer
>>744608119The implication is that Phanes/Principle isn't stronger than whatever's out there though he was even wounded fighting the dragons. Teyvat is like his gated neighborhood.It's not so much scifi as it is escalating everything to the universe level almost everything still has a sense of magitech barring a few gaudy examples>the mustace twirling villains were actually just misunderstood when they tried to murder everyonethis, THIS is totally indefensible though they constantly try to pull salvation on everybody just fucking let maligned niggas be evil ffs. And they really fucked up Natlan, half of Fontaine & Sumeru, ruined the presentation of Inazuma and really everything with disgusting meaningless chatter.
>>744611742Griseo is Sigewinne, she's been in the game for years.
>>744611742akshually
>>744612039literally no one thinks this
>>744610297Stop noticing
>>744608119>the mustace twirling villains were actually just misunderstoodNo fucking S H I T nigga, were you paying attention? Fatui have been antiheroes since Liyue.
>>744612274PILLOW WAR
>>744612353I've noticed most people can't differentiate antagonists from villains. You can be one or the other, or both.
maybe childe is simply retarded
>>744612234???Same colors, same voice actress, who said in an interview she was specifically picked out and didn't go through an audition.
>>744611061At least she's a Fadyui. x.0 characters are always shit but I'm considering rolling for her just for narrative reasons, and the dancing
>>744612502different eye colors Odette looks far more similar and obviously looks like an expy besides the VAMavuika who is Himeko expy also has different VA
SEX WITH MUALANI
>>744612671their personalities are nothing alike. Did you even play Honkai 3rd.
>>744612671>Mavuika who is Himeko expyHonestly that narrative kind of flopped. Wuwa's Mavuika clone made a strong case that Mavuika is her own kind of character
>>744610254Why is there a bear standing there? Just how multicultural is Snezh, there's like 5 races in one place
>>744612726yes i played HI3 story didnt play any of part 2 though. Personality doesnt have to match for an expy theres no clear definition its just a fan termAlice obviously has Elysia's personality but shes not an Elysia expy
>>744612397I miss Rosalyne so much
>>744612729>Wuwa's Mavuika cloneWhat the fuck lol is that a thing
>>744612837You're dishonestly misrepresenting the argument. No point in discussing this further.
>Nod Krai had 0 redheadswhat the FUCK
>>744612936i accept your consneedcession friendOdette is obviously a Griseo expy end of discussion
>>744612865Yeah and she's the leader of her people too. I kind of like her more than Mavuika actually
>>744613000well he did get trips...
>>744613023my fucking WIFE
Hoyo makes it obvious when it's an expy, like Raiden, Silver Wolf, Yae. There's no sense in calling any character with a vague similarity an expy.
>>744612848Ain't no way in hell they're not bringing her back. One day she will come
speaking of
You guys realize that Paimon is a Teyvat chapter companion right? This is Paimon's final year, Paimon leaves in 2027
>>744612848they showed her tomb in the trailer
>>744613435Idiot.There are at least 2 more chapters already announced.
>>744613475They've shown Sand literally die. Her OG model isn't a playable anyway, when she comes back she needs to come back with a new playable body
>he thinks we're leaving Teyvat behind next year or maybe even in the one after the next
>>744613435yeah, say goodbye to her
>>744613475holy mog
>>744613023I genuinely wish wuwa wasn't dog shit>best game saar kuro dev listenI already played it. I genuinely wouldn't have minded if they unashamedly made a Genshin clone on a new engine, but they gave up. No elemental system, terrible exploration (nice Unreal vistas to screenshot but the actual environmental design is meh), abysmal story, combat that's just an endless iframes particle effect shitshow to jiggle keys. Very meh.
>>744613475
>>744613543>he thinks Celestia is a chapterCelestia is the ending for 7.x, like the moon was for 6.x. It's too unpopulated to be a full blown region>but muh time traveling khaleesi townBait and switch, this is a story they're leaving for later. They've shown too much of that story in 6.x main quest because they know they're not coming back to it any time soon
you fags are so up your own asses in vg its just straight up inane spam and ai slop porn every other postwe never have legit conversations about genshin on this site it sucks

>>744613749I don't go to /vg/ anymore
>>744588118Killed by those awful designs. Killed by Nodkrai pushing the expected schedule of the gameKilled by the devs not including basic QoL like text skip or seamless switch between controller and keyboard, while also having those QoLs in other hoyo games and showing the fanbase how behind the times Genshin is.Killed by the devs killing exploration, the one thing that made the game feel like a game and not just another gacha.
>>744613891For meNTE > Genshin > WWM >> Endfield > Wuwa > DNA >> ZZZ > HSRBut we'll see if NTE can manage a full blown second city for 2.0, that would be crazy

I'm so glad I get to experience this game's lore develop every few months. If I started playing later it would've probably been too much to take in but waiting for each patch to drop feels like a long running series. It reminds me of the time attack on titan used to air when each revelation was like handing us a piece of the puzzle and letting us think about what the truth is.Don't even care if hardcore gaymers or normalfags discard it for being "le casino gambling", I'm having fun.
>>744616549Wuwa fans do look like this and say this actually

>>744617154rightidk how phonefags play 3D games on touchscreen
>>744614486It works here because genshin already runs on saturation so ur eyes adpots to it quicker like when its night time. When the game is all gloomy and with muddy colors, sparkly effects stands out because of the constrast like shining ur flashlight in the dark

>>744616727haha memes
Man, all of you niggers just suck.
>>744617587>voiced mamere in sandrone tea meetingsnice surprise but damn she sounds like a toddler in jp
I was really desperate for a snow region since Dragonsspine, but there is just so much yap, girl bosses, most inane cutsie stuff and children's story telling that I am somehow just died to the thought of continuing with this game as it looks more of the same retarded cutsie slop again.
>>744616727God, Simulanka was such a banger. Who knew that it would end up hinting at the story for years to follow.
>>744617750shit was surreal
>>744617769It's a shame the fucking morons and Yohomo made it lost content that exists only in youtube now.
>>744617769Fairytales are always worldbuilding treasure troves in Genshin, they are usually retellings of real events.I remember when Simulanka was new and [other game] shitposters were going ballistic about it >toddler game saar toy graphics move to better game for harem straight men
>>744617883Yeah it's really stupid. I don't know what technology they need to make events repayable but they have to do this at least for Simulanka.>>744617851This image would be surreal to see two years ago lol. For all the fan theories I'm happy that Sandrone = Mary-Ann was actually correct.
>>744588118I mean just look at how ugly the game looks compared to WuWa or Endfield, hell even NTE.It's obvious why people no longer care about something so outdated.There's only so much time people have for one of these open world games, so might as well devote it to a game that actually respects its players.
>>744618656Just post the ad bro
>>744618656I have fallen out of love with wuwa
>>744618656Meh, I've tried all of these and don't care for them. There's a lot more that goes in making a believable, interesting world, not just newer graphics. But if you don't give a shit about worldbuilding just move to the newest hypest stuff.
>>744617883That was by far the dumbest shit to make limited, newfags won't understand Durin AT ALL between it and the dragonspine events
>>744618897>it is universally accepted that from two years of story updates you're supposed to skip everything except two quests They should just retcon the storyline again. Or just scrap it and do collabs all the time since nobody gives a damn.
>>744618656None of those games (genshin included) are particularly good. There's no point in quitting one live-service slop game just to become a daily quest slave in the same game with just a different coat of paint.
>>744588236Chenyu Vale update was the last straw for me. I just wanted to explore the area, but instead I got hit with 20 minutes of filler worldslop the moment I entered the zone. I realized it was only gonna get worse and quit the game since I can no longer stand how mhy pads their content with words words words words.
>>744619443Niggas truly be like>yeah I quit in one of the best expansions at least have the decency to say late Fontaine or Natlan or something when we barely got any new areas.
>>744617851Alain's wholesome chungus extended family
>>744618656>wuwa>open world
>>744619749>wholesome chungus extended familyThere are weirder families in the game. Like Ineffa and Ajaw being siblings.
>>744619443For me, it was the Sorush/Pari quests>See this whole new zone? Yeah 90% of it is locked behind one of the most uninteresting wordbabble questlines everAt least the 10% that wasn't locked behind the quest (the oasis) was really nice.
>>744619510I wanted to quit since Fontaine’s 2nd act where literally nothing happens inside the underground prison but forced myself to push through til the end of Fontaine arc just to see how it wraps up. > I quit in one of the best expansionsMhy won’t let me. So fuck you and fuck them. Also forcing me to read Gaming’s cliche story whom no one gives a shit about during that expansion made everything worse.
>>744615081Sure buddy, even endfield wrecks this game graphically and it's also made in unity.
>>744620007>most uninteresting wordbabble questlines everIf you have the necessary autism to realize it is a retelling of Zoroastrian mythology around death and rebirth it is really nice. But most players don't know nor care.
>>744620081The Fontaine prison is easily the worst arc in the entire archon quest, just hours of dogshit with nothing to redeem it. The Nod Krai/Sumeru finale we just got is a strong contender too.
>>744620236Environmental design is not fidelity. Higher fidelity assets are wasted when you can't make creative and interesting areas.Endfield's alright though.
>>744619749fucking Seymour is the most normal motherfucker here lmao
>>744620282>The Nod Krai/Sumeru finale we just got is a strong contender tooWhat happened here?
I love this game and dispel your negativity.
It's hilarious how much wuwa broke the genjeets on this websiteNow even the lowest iq fag can see how it exposed mihomos laziness and it even made the suck cost fallacy slaves regret dropping money on this slop
Why don't wuwafags ever talk about their own game instead of obsessing over genshin
>>744620769Actually they and their ecelebs are currently obsessed with ZZZ instead. Two retards fighting and all that.
>>744620769>Content creators spend more time seething about Hoyo than producing content for their game>No one cares about the story and lore>Threads on /v/ are kept alive by an annoying tripfag that replies to himself for hours
>>744609384but Inazuma had a literal sudoku puzzle
Genshin is fun, out of all the hoyo games I like it's characters the most, am the most invested in it's story and even prefer it's simple combat to ZZZs more skill heavy one. But it's the one that respects your time the least out of the three.Yes, you can do dailies and spend all resin in under 10 minutes. But actually progressing through its lengthy (and unksippable) story, exploring, upgrading characters and having to farm shit in the overworks, doing it's lengthy events, running into unksippable world quest etc; eat significantly more time. I've taken my time playing the game at my rythm and it's never eaten time out of my responsibilities or shit, but it does eat enough time to prevent you from having other hobbies.
>>744614828
>>744588118I try to get back into Hoyoslop every couple years but get burned out every time. Genshin is by far the best of their games though imo because of it's ambition.
8 days bros
>>744588405Normally I'd say that's the annoying yurifags failing to co-mingle and twitter western audience doing their thing, which is true in a lot of gacha lately, but Hoyo themselves kinda did push it a bit much lately.
>>744622252The faggy writers can't help forcing their gross ideology. They did it back in Sumeru and I guarantee they got their shit slapped by the higher ups who forced them to reel it in hard. So until they get slapped again they're going to be pushing the disgusting homosexuality incredibly hard once more.
>>744620427Dottore [forma de hermanos] became a god and fucked with reality. You evacuated Sumeru, snuck Mavuika's gnosis into a quarantine zone, rebuilt some gay machine from the olden days to burn the Irmunsul (which is what was letting Dottore be a God) and then punched him really hard.The building of the machine was very meandering as was all of the 'investigation' segments where your party is trying to figure out what is going on and recruit helpers. Way too much decompression.
>>744622676The hoyo higher ups are the biggest yurifags themselves. But they're the otaku purityfag type not the western tumblr type.
>>744613023I like her cute voice>>744613696I think Wuwa's story is way better than Genshin's, but you're right on every other point. No element system means every fight is the exact same, just spam abilities with your best carry; no fight gimmicks means clever teambuilding is nonexistent. I think they gave up on decent world design in Lahairoi since they shoved a motorcycle down everyone's throats and said ""who cares if the world sucks just ride ur bike out of it lol".
>>744620259>If you have the necessary autism to realize it is a retelling of Zoroastrian mythology around death and rebirthI do have that autism, and their attempt at tackling one of the least talked about religions in media history doesn't make the questline not complete dogshit.
>>744622676Hoyo's got roots in being very faggy, they (kind of) held back for a few years in Genshin but it's starting to poke through again.
>>744620427Haven't played Nod Krai but I did quick access the Sumeru finale, it's an ambitious story that ties up all the loose ends from the og genshin webcomic, the sumeru world quests and all the King Deshret shit. But it's too long for its own good and the epic climax doesn't redeem it.It's also notably an example of Genshin's lack of high stakes as the story involves the burning of the giant memory tree that's crucial to all the world, but it doesnt have any impact or lasting consequences on the plot as they get a bootstrap replacement working literally 2 minutes after.
>>744623131>they (kind of) held back for a few years in Genshin but it's starting to poke through again.How so? The male appreciator office would contend they are dialing it back since no males have revealed skin since Dahlia's release last year
>>744618656>I mean just look at how ugly the game looks compared to WuWa or Endfield, hell even NTE.They hated him for telling the truthhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qVLk4xP-PQ
>>744623265more in the yuri pandering department.
>>744623319>makes more money than either gameYour thoughts?
>>744622895>rebuilt some gay machine from the olden days to burn the Irmunsulthat's now what happened
How well does Genshin work on Linux?
>>744623319soul / soulless
>>744623319It's kinda interesting how even though Genshin's effects are like 1000x less flashy, they're still higher quality somehow. For the most part. It would be nice if there was a happy medium.
>>744623717>It's kinda interesting how even though Genshin's effects are like 1000x less flashy, they're still higher quality somehow. For the most part. It would be nice if there was a happy medium.You are coping
>>744623520i don't even know what that is, must be impressive numbers since i think genshin made something like 7 to 9 billion dollars by this point.
>>744613749Bro this is the state of 4chan today, legitimately mentally ill people have made it their life mission to shit up a topic of their obsession. The fact that every topic on 4chan no matter how obscure has regular schizos people can name shows how terrible this site is for harboring and allowing schizos to spend their entire life shitting up a single topic of their choice.
>>744623893You're a lonely seething fanboy in a Genshin thread mate. You're one of the most pathetic posters on /v/ right now. The left side makes way more money than the right simply because I'm correct. The right side has to compensate for its lack of popularity with bells and whistles but it will never really compete.
>>744623893right is exactly like playing FFXIV, a bunch of flashy moves but with no substance that do 100 damage each
>>744623893Do you WuWafags actually like anything about the game other than the flashy visuals?
>>744623893as time has gone on I am less interested in overly flashy effects. I want to see what's going on not be blinded by smudge
>>744623893Just go create your wuwa thread already, so you can talk with yourself, alone, for 8 hours straight.
>>744624105Genshin's effects are really quite thoughtful and beautiful if you pay attention to them, and even they're a bit on the fast side(like look at weapon trail effects). Wuwa is just zoomer cringe shit as far as I'm concerned.
>>744590019>And Sumeru is the reason the maps are smaller with less exploration. Because people complained about its endless empty deserts, and underground exploration.Sumeru had an ungodly amount of sidequests that locked out exploration behind obscure shit and too many common chests for doing puzzles and shit, making the entire thing extremely tedious and grindy.Sumeru exploration was fun in the beginning, but it turned into quantity over quality.
>>744613749that's all of /vg/ sadly though /gig/ is one of the worse. Honestly /vg/ needs like poster IDs or something, most generals are unreadable.
>>744595759>A lot of the leaks before Natlan>saying "leaks" when what he means is "made up shit he read on twitter that he took as fact"
>>744609526> maybe they will retroactively do that for older content too if we won't get a skip buttonWhy do they go out of their way to avoid the skip button? If anything, it costs them users.
>>744588118CCP genshin shill thread
>>744623893>particle effect vomit while the character flies all over the screenit's all so tiresome..
