Genshin Impact

I kind of like the open world experience, it’s just that I haven’t played a game like this in a hot minute. Unfortunately, I do not. I have a work laptop that could maybe run it, but I think I‘ll just stick with my tablet. I’m sure I’ll get more used to the feel of the game and how to do things as I play more. Glad to hear that I’m not the only one experiencing terrible gacha odds. Thanks for the advice!

That sounds good. Thanks for the offer.

was looking forward to pulling for xinyan and i got her and razor in 2 multi summons. i hope i can get her to constellation 2 at the very least, i was either at pity or one multi summon away when i pulled for tartaglia which i do not regret at all and i really wanted to pull another pyro support for him. zhongli is one of my favourite characters in the story but i hope i can dodge him lol

I‘m AR 14 now and ended up taking a couple day break due to things I’m dealing with. I ended up getting a five star weapon before my 90th wish on the Wanderlust Invocation banner, so my pity counter got reset, which was really unfortunate because I wanted a five star character and not necessarily a five star weapon. It’s like I said, the terrible rates in this game + my terrible odds in gacha games = no bueno. I decided to whale hard at that point and spent $200-250 before finally getting a five star character, Mona. I had around 11 or 12 characters already before I got my first five star, and I even got duplicates as well. It’s fine though because I have a paycheck plus other money coming in soon. I don’t think I’m ever going to spend that much money on a game again, xD.

Spoiler: Mona

i actually really love genshin! as someone who has botw, i personally think it's refreshing to see another game with similar gameplay elements especially when it's available for free

usually i find gacha games infuriating and genshin is no exception especially because of the 0.6% 5-star rate (never going to forgive the game for giving me 6 razor dupes instead of literally any other character) but it's genuinely quite fun to play with friends, and the developers are clearly very passionate about it all so in the end, i think it's worth a try for anyone who liked botw!

Not sure how many people check this thread, but if you play Genshin or know of anyone that does, please take the time to read this, or even read the TL;DR version! It's a somewhat serious topic regarding Zhongli and the future of unreleased 5 stars. Will post a summarized version here too just in case. If you do have the time though, I'd encourage you to read the whole post as it goes into much more detail about the issues.

Summary:
- Many of Zhongli's talents that make him more worthy of being a 5 star are locked behind his constellations, which is not the case with any other 5 stars, as they all perform well at C0. According to some leaks (which you should take with a grain of salt), Mihoyo may have nerfed Ganyu and Ayaka. Basically, many of these future 5 star characters may act as 4 stars at C0 as Zhongli already does, more or less.

- Even if you like Zhongli, please ask for a buff/rework when the survey is released, which should be sometime after Zhongli's banner ends or just before, as we''re nearing the end of 1.1. We don't lose anything from gaining a buff, but if we don't voice our concerns and frustrations, future 5 star characters could just be glorified 4 stars.

Was actually thinking if whether or not I should save my soft pity for Ganyu/Albedo but I guess that's that! Will continue saving for Xiao and Ayaka then. Excited for the new Dragonspine region coming out soon thats filled with all sorts of new content!

Here's the 1.2 trailer for anyone who missed it! The second youtube link will be the full english livestream from yesterday in case anyone is interested in more details regarding the new area. There are no story spoilers, so feel free to watch no matter where you are in the game. ^^

And here's a promo code which should still be valid, you can redeem it in-game in your settings or use this website!
Code:
GENSHINGIFT

There were also three promo codes released during yesterday's stream. I believe they've expired, however as of making this post, according to this link they're not so it may be worth just trying to redeem them just in case. I recommend checking that website occasionally since they always have the promo codes listed and tell you which ones have and haven't expired.

Promo codes from yesterday's stream (best to copy and paste):

Anyone else here still playing this? All of my complaints from before don’t really matter because I absolutely love this game. It’s fantastic. I’m about to hit AR 34 and I love everything about this game, from the story to the characters to even the gameplay (found a way to make it work on mobile). I’ve loved playing co-op with friends as well. Definitely the best online game I’ve played in a long time.

Still playing it as well, and I love it so far! Excited for all the new updates/events coming out soon.

I just got another Mona on the Limited Banner. I literally only have only 2 5* characters at AR49 and one weapon. I was hoping for anyone other than her lol. On the bright side I can now guarantee a slot for Xiao that's coming pretty soon so that's that. Mostly F2P aside from the Welkin Moon, so saving gems are hard enough.

sorry it's still not out yet for me.

i played it pretty much exactly when it released for playstation 4 and i had a blast! the graphics, the story, the characters, the gameplay... everything was so good! i played non stop for like 2 weeks and collected everything i could, grinded so hard to level up weapons, artifacts and characters without having to pay a single cent! but as you can see by my usage of past tense, i haven't touched the game since LOL i was above adventure rank 40 and everything took painfully long to be done. it is definitely a fun time playing through it, discovering the map and following the story, but for me personally it's just a gacha hell game after that

 

[Katgamer]

I just started playing the game and it’s super cool having a little trouble with some quests but other than that it’s a great game can’t wait for it to be released on the switch

 

[Rowlet28]

Was saving my guaranteed pity for Xiao but I just did a sigle pull and got her lol. I only did less than 20 summons atm so I wasn't expecting her at all. I wasn't that sold on the charged attack but when I actually tried it I loved it! Very fun to play. Gotta start saving again haha.

@Rowlet28 Congratulations on Ganyu! She looks lovely. Slightly tempted to do the same thing so I can replace my Diona with her.

After not playing for a month (and missing out on Zhongli) I’ve started to launch occasionally to do daily commissions again and check out the latest update. I love the new area!

 

[Katgamer]

Could anybody tell me if she’s a useful character? I’m new and don’t really know anything about characters

Haven't been using her that much but from the videos I've seen she's pretty good, though you can make mostly anyone good with just the right artifacts.

I'm pleasantly surprised by this game. I typically am not a huge fan of gacha games but this one is okay to me because you can still enjoy gameplay without the need to have a bunch of 5 stars on the team. I also really really like the co-op mode, like wow, it takes the game to a whole new level of fun for me. Also, I feel like for once, my in-game friends are not just for decorations in the friends list (lol) and are actually meaningful to have. It does feel like there are a lot of items/currencies to collect, so that is somewhat a bit overwhelming for me, but im sure it's just part of the learning curve since im still pretty new to the game.

I currently have Xiangling and Chongyun on my team from the beginner banner. But it seems like everyone has Xiangling lol so i guess she's pretty common to pull.

 

[Midoriya]

I’m AR 35 finally and just today completed the Lost Riches event in the matter of an hour or two. I have to say I really enjoyed this event compared to the last one, and the colored seelies are soooooo cute (I chose pink).

 

[Midoriya]

Posting here again because I got a five star weapon tonight instead of a character, but I equipped it to Zhongli and now he’s a beast stats wise.

My party setup at the moment:

I’m also AR 38 now and I’m finished with all of the main Archon quests. I guess that gives me more time to do other quests, explore and unlock more domains, work on ascending characters and weapons, and more.
