They can't do this to us. I'm not made out of unlimited
Ganyu re-run ON Raiden's banner. I mean, they split the rates on the weapon banners, why not do the same for the character banner as well?
Please God no.
Please God no.
nah everyone just calls 1.7 2.0 becasue of Inazuma but i just think it is confusing for no reason... im guessing Inazuma was just moved up to 1.7 i hope its all of it and we dont get the rest later.. then we get 1.8 and 1.9 and then 2.0... i mean maybe they will have it be 2.0 but isnt the closed beta.. 1.7? with Inazuma... 2.0 is probably The Chasm with new Dendro Element... also with more Inazuma stuff..?
It not because the a bunch players decided it, it's because the leaker found some files with 2.0. Also, in software development, they will jump to the big next increment when a milestone (Inazuma) is reach, which is probably Mihoyo decision.
Exploration, primogems and tons of character interactions. We eating good. And Kaeya, Diluc, Albedo and Razor all at once? Mihoyo be like
Aren't they siblings...
The problem isn't that the boss is easy, it's that they hyped up the fight.
The new boss isn't any easier or harder than any of the other 40 resin world bosses except for maybe the primovishap, which is only fractionally more difficult than the rest of them.
Yeah, no blood relation. Sworn brotherhood is a common thing in chinese queer stories, and it has a different implication than the western notion of brothers.
There was actually a lot of drama in the western fanart circles because of translation differences, but they're the most popular pairing along with Zhongli and Childe. Mihoyo was more than glad to give a lot of new material to the fans with this event too, lol.

Yeah, I edited that out because it gets complicated. It has to do with the text not saying that in the chinese original, and the translation taking some liberties to show how strong their bond is. Like I said, it was a whole thing, haha. Either way, they aren't blood related.
are diluc & kaeya brothers??
ok. with the diluc & kaeya issue going on i wanna put my two cents in as someone who 1) is a chinese speaker and 2) lives with a chinese family. ppl have been rlly confused abt what's going on w/...

The early leaks which also leaked 1.7=2.0=Inazuma have said that 2.1 is Moonchase and Ganyu+Xiao. I'd go with trusting them, as they were leaks before the current set and got everything right back then.
The current leaks, basically anyone in the beta can get credit but these are very different leaks.

on Diluc and Kaeya, it's all up to interpretation I suppose
I see them as brothers but I'm certainly not going to bother any shippers

To be honest I avoid posting this type of thing here, but I was having so much fun with the quest today that I forgot this particular pairing can be contentious. Lol.
Speaking of which, after Windblume and Midsummer Island Adventure, the next Liyue event needs to step it up majorly. Having Zhongli waxing poetic and NPC bureaucracy with no other characters to be seen won't gonna cut it.

The events have paid attention to the Mondstadt folks well. Liyue characters need some love now.
This new area is getting deleted? That sucks. When is the 1.6 update?
Now I need to get on exploring this area before it's gone.

What's this guy talking about then? When does the new area go?
It's leaving WITH 1.6, as it, when 1.6 is over and we move on to 1.7, the islands are leaving.
So in like 6-7 weeks.
In five/six weeks when we get patch 1.7, the new islands we got with this event go poof.
Ty, that's quite a bit of time at least.
I imagine introducing new, permanent areas would blow up the file size no?
If they had each patch introduce a smaller area to explore, solve puzzles, and crack open chests while we wait for the next major region, with the condition that the small area would disappear after the patch, I'd be down for a set up like that honestly. Exploring is where this game shines. Even if the new Archipelagos area is temporary, I appreciate it nonetheless. Though I agree, it does suck for those who get the game at a later date.

The file-size argument is just non-sense. These islands are a whole new map, they could be an optional download if really necessary.
And if they're struggling now with this, removing little areas ain't going to help compared to having 6 or 7 more Mondstadt/Liyue sized areas with new assets, cutscenes, tons of voice acting, music, etc.
The file-size argument is only brought up cause it's the only explanation that feels like a technical reason cause people still don't want to believe Mihoyo are putting so much effort into time-limited content simply because they can, not because they have to.
Heck, they even have "Limited" in their company name!

You better be telling the truth.
• 2.1 in September
• Raiden-Shogun in it
• 20k gems from all quests/events/exploration
Otherwise, I will invade in your worlds and start assassinating characters. You log-in and you find a quest for organizing Kaeya's funeral instead.

I have just been replaying dragons dogma and now i want a claymore user with a charge attack, charge attacks are just satisfying as fuck.
So you want Himeko from Honkai?
Not really. It's brought up by those of us who have played other gachas and are used to having time limited content, with file size always being the reason. It's just the norm for us, so it's nothing more than that.
I do agree with you though that in the grand scheme of things it doesn't make sense considering they still have 5 kingdoms left to create. I honestly think Mihoyo are just like "we'll figure it out later" which is why they've been stalling so hard with content.
I listened to this great video about this yesterday that talked about how Mihoyo are basically forcing gacha into a triple A title. Worth a listen if anyone is interested in this topic.
The closest thing for that in Beidou's E.I have just been replaying dragons dogma and now i want a claymore user with a charge attack, charge attacks are just satisfying as fuck.
Cannot say that anything in Genshin is high effort or requires long sessions.
It is more like rationed daily engagement for the slow progress, while having both bullshit Artifact progression and hero/weapon pities that are designed to fuck you up giving stuff (even in the promotional item-debut timed banner) you don't want.
I think most people who own Venti had invested instantly with VV set, and decking out the hero should have been a priority before the patch. Maxing out artifacts is pointless when there is no target requiring those stats.
After tomorrow, the patch is going to slow down and we will have minor events until Kazuha... Endure!
Come on game, don't fuck this up, don't put Skyward Spine into Kazuha weapon banner. You want my Welkin money? Gimme Amos/WGS! (Stringless, Favonius Lance, Sacrificial Sword too)

I never know what to do when I watch a video like this. Like, gacha is fundamentally shitty & I definitely agree with that, but listening to someone say, "Hey, actually this whole game is predatory in a bad way!" as though it's a revelation just makes me tired. It's not like I disagree. I just feel like some sort of cognac-drinking divorcee listening to a teenager weeping over her first breakup or something like... wow, imagine, I must have been that young once.
Did you actually watch the video? The guy articulated himself quite well so I'm surprised that this was your take away.
So rather than "fixing" Adventure Rank they're giving us this. It's something, I guess.
I think with Venti and Zhongli being friendly from the start, it made sense to have their banners early in the story, but it doesn't seem like Raiden will be friendly, so who knows. I don't really trust the "Uncles" about anything right now.
"A lot of content creators". And there's the problem. Content creators need games with end game grindable content. Gacha games aren't that. They just aren't. Without PVP, there's really nothing to do for a content creator.
These games don't need to be a job. For content creators, they literally are a job. The number one reason people quit gacha games is because of the time commitment. Content creator goals and playerbase goals are not aligned.

Here's another video (ignore the clickbaity preview pic, lol.) that explains the issue (even though I don't fully agree with everything) quite well:
Him quitting is especially disappointing, because he was my favorite content creator of the game. And there are not that many quality content creators for Genshin. :(

My SO says "not until they give us swimsuits for the guys". She does have a point. :)

I wasn't planning on watching a fucking Genshin youtuber talk about the game, but after your comment, I thought maybe there is something insightful and...
... it is the same beaten horse "Timed events, Gacha daily grind, no replayable content" padded into 10 minutes.
Sorry, there is nothing good new or unique in it. The previous poster is right, we all know these problems, we don't need every youtuber making essays that Genshin needs endgame/replayable content updates.
I hadn't really considered the point about there not being a reason to do certain new content unless you have the latest character. I lucked out on Eula, but, yeah, if you didn't then why would you regularly blow resin on Cryo Hypostatis or Azhdaha (who is tedious as hell to boot)? And same for that new masked boss. I did him three times to get the rewards and that's all because I don't expect to get Kazuha.
What resonated most with me was the thing about blowing your resin in about 10 minutes, after which there's little else to do if you've spent 10 minutes completing dailies. I don't mind a game not demanding too much time from me. That's not a bad thing per se, even though I'd like meaningful content that isn't gated. But, on top of the speed at which you can hit a wall daily, you can spend that (condensed) resin to do four runs of an artifact domain and just completely waste it on worthless drops or substat rolls. The combination of time-gating plus demoralizing drop rates is my number one issue with the game right now. And you have little choice but to engage with domains when you've got your talents where you want them, weapons leveled and characters ascended. One of the draws of leveling a character (that I actually want to use) is that I get a good reason not to do artifact domains for a while, but that's a band-aid solution.
Genshin was a really rewarding experience to me up to around AR 35 to 40, after which the game kind of takes a turn for the worse because it becomes all about resin. It's to be expected that things arent as exciting once you settle into a daily/weekly assignments routine because story content has run out, but there's gotta be a better loop than artifact domains.
