    genshin is surprisingly good (I was also wow’d when I started playing), but ultimately I found the story lacking in a lot of key places for me (justice for Inazuma’s story especially!) which ultimately led me to quit for now. I played for two years, and have a pretty well established account. however, I have really bad fatigue issues and wasn’t able to keep up as well with the adventuring requirements, such as having to unlock chests for free primogems.

    I think playing it until you’re tired of the grating parts is a totally valid way to experience it. especially because it’s free!

    like the other comment, I tried Honkai: Star Rail and honestly I love it so much more. it is turn-based combat, but I feel like the writing is better, and they treat their characters better storywise (in contrast to genshin, which imho the hangouts for four stars are not comparable to the story quests some four stars get.) it’s my gacha game of choice, and while I’ve had my nitpicks, I have those with every game I play pretty much. I also agree it’s more f2p friendly.

    these are all just my opinion tho! I hope you enjoy your time with the game and that you get the characters you want. may your pulls be blessed!

      “…and that you get the characters you want. may your pulls be blessed!”

      Thanks, I could really use the bless. I have yet to get a fire character I like and can use. I’d take the bomb goblin in Jean’s basement at this rate.

      Amber could not leave my party fast enough, and Xiangling is in the timeout corner from the time her rat refused to light the torches on dragonspine. I did get Thoma from the character event, but he absolutely refuses to be ascended past level 20.

        I feel you. I dislike most of the pyro characters honestly! and also, oof, Thoma requires ascension materials from a special huge questline island in Inazuma. he’s kind of a pain to level. the pyro four star I like the most is a tie between Gaming and Yanfei. Yoimiya is my favorite 5 star one, and she works well with Thoma, actually.

        you can probably guess who some of my favorites are based on profile pic and banner (eventually, anyway, they’re both in Inazuma.)

        who do you have your eyes on that you want, anyone besides Diluc and Shenhe? I don’t know what the banners are currently.

          I think that’s Raiden Shogun & Kujou Sara on your profile? I juuuust met the latter on the Archon questline.

          My ideal lineup would have a Greatsword, Bow, and 2x Tomes, with Anemo, Pyro, Dendro, and Hydro represented. I don’t really know the cast well enough to say who would go where. I’m currently rolling with Electro Aether, Collei, Sucrose (The MVP of my crew), and Barbie, though I’m really hopeful to sub out barbie soon, as her healing has been falling off.

          I’d definitely fit Zhongli in if I somehow got him, as well as Razor and Jean. Rosaria showed up for like half a second in the story, and I’m all about that tired priestess vibe she’s got going on. Yomiya is cool, I’d have her in my team too.
