Positivity? About Genshin Impact? In THE Genshin subreddit? During these times? I must be dreaming
Lmao this post got reported so much it got automod flagging it, people really can't stand positivity here can they lol
It's an empty post. Saying you like the game without expanding on it is no different than saying you hate it and just end it there. Both are equally pointless.
This sounds so much like Wanderer lol.
Funnily enough, I havenât seem one single post on Reddit about the drama going on right now. Everything I heard was against my own will, on Twitter. I donât understand the player base man, if you are not satisfied with the game, the best you can do is to stop playing. The devs wonât change anything if the player base doesnât shrink. But instead, they keep playing and just do some review bombing and unfollowing of some social media accounts. Bruh, give yourself some respect and donât be satisfied for getting an âapology rewardâ, you know? Return to the game when your standards have been achieved by the company, when they ACTUALLY have the intent to keep giving you what you want⌠it doesnât make any sense to me to consume a product from someone who you consider despicable
I agree with this! I downloaded the game 2.5 years ago and didn't play until last October when I felt the changes were good enough. My partner played daily and would occasionally pull on my account so I'd have characters when I started, and I was able to see the changes through the years. I can not and will not play a game I dislike, so right now I love Genshin.
I think it will be a year for it to be where I honestly want it to be, but it is on a good progression so I am happily playing now minus my hatred of Inuzuma and materials blocked (unacceptable). But if in a year it is still stagnent, or they backtrack in quality in Natlan, and I am unhappy, I will stop playing.Â
Since this game is ftp, time spent is one of their currencies. So to speak with your wallet you have to stop spending money AND playing. You nailed it with how ineffective it is to just rant and unfollow on SM. Even surveys won't change much if the player base doesn't decrease due to requests not being met.
Also, just stopping and going for HI3rd or Star Rail will not work. Most of the things happening is because miHoYo WANTS to cannibalize some portion of the Genshin playerbase so they are attracted to their better profitable games. Specially the playerbase that spends too little or nothing at all so those people can spend on their less expensive products.
Want Genshin to change? Quit Genshin and stop playing ALL miHoYo games. Don't make them think their strategy is working.
Not quite, most of the things happening in Genshin is because there is next to no alternative on the market, Tower of Fantasy is ok but nowhere near as complex or interesting and any other similar game has fallen over super quickly. HI3rd and Star Rail actually face quite a bit of competition in their niches and as a result are forced to remain competitive.
Yup. That's why EA pump out shit like Madden, Fifa etc., not even hiding the fact each one is just a copy and paste full of bugs and people still buy it cause there's no other devs to compete with when it comes to sports games.Â
While that IS true, one thing does not make another false. Mihoyo doesn't feel bad with people leaving Genshin for HSR as the second is much more profitable. While Genshin costs a lot for Mihoyo, HSR have lower costs which makes the profit margin miles better.
With HSR and Honkai having much more incentives for players to spend because of powercreep (that is way higher in Honkai than HSR, tho) and constant release of much more characters (way higher in HSR than Honkai), those two products unite incentive to spend with lesser operating costs. It's a win-win situation for Mihoyo. Specially with HSR which has proven itself to generate similar revenue to Genshin.
On retail, which is where I came from - while still working at liveops on some mobile apps - we call it a low-profit high-demand product. It generates a fuck ton of revenue but its profit margin isn't that impressive (although, Genshin profit margin IS impressive, just not as much as HSR). Those are products that bring clients to your products, but aren't really the ones you want your clients to buy that much. It is even common to sell NEGATIVE margin products just to bring the clients and generate some gross revenue.
Genshin is the one that brings people not only to Mihoyo but to the gacha market and even to the chinese market. It is not a surprise that Genshin is seen as a cultural phenomenon on China. But this doesn't mean that they WANT you to keep on Genshin. If you're someone that can only play one game at a time, they will try to bring your to Star Rail so your spending has higher profit margin. They really want you to spend on ALL their games and keep playing ALL of them. But they know this is not possible for everyone... so, if you already came to the company because of Genshin, it is better that you play ONLY Star Rail than ONLY Genshin.
I won't, because i simply don't give a fuck and enjoy my time with the game,most people won't either, but good luck with said boycott which won't get anywhere.
If you want to see the game improve, wait for something that can compete with it.
Some delusional people will say honkai starail, but thats LITERALLY a game by the same company, its the equivalent of saying Donald Duck will kill Mickey Mouse.
I know right must be a paid user đ
obvious fed, no other possibility
+100000 social credit
Genshin has nothing but positivity tbh.
Ok
Thank you OP. I like Genshin because it's a fun game too. On a serious note saying you like Genshin is now being a bootlicker. What a time to be a Genshin fan
Never have I been so annoyed by others for liking something.
Someone tried really hard to make me believe that I am actually lying to myself about liking the game. Bruh keep me out of your delusions.

Long time players reasonably should be asking for better content, but instead many of them are asking for purely more pulls. My question is: why the fuck do you even need more characters? đ You have a gambling addiction, pure and simple, or youâre suffering some serious unhealthy tie to this game. Just quit if you feel thereâs nothing to do but gacha more.Â
There are way too many people who hang out around here who despise the game yet want more wishes constantly and constantly complain about the measly celebrations rewards. If you detest the game so much, stop playing itâŚonce you stop playing, believe me that  it wonât unseat you when they give you only three anniversary pulls.Â
Iâm not even a day one player, Iâve only spent about 50 dollars total on the game, and I already have more characters than Iâll ever need in my life. What on earth do some of these people WANT?Â
If youâre mad at the game because itâs gotten tedious, or repetitive, or the future looks bad because of lack of endgame, thatâs totally reasonable and understandable. I now often suffer Genshin burnout cause of all those things and basically only play the first 5-10 days of each patch, and occasionally if thereâs a fun event story. Iâll never complain about posts complaining about actual gameplay.Â
But these reward beggars and ragers are absolute children.Â
Nobody has a problem with people liking genshin, itâs when they use that as a justification to argue against improving the game that makes them a bootlicker.

I hate the hoyo community, not the genshin impact.
So real, is a very fun game
How much did they pay you
(Joking, but still a weird post)
What is this? I do not understand? I've been online for years and this combination of words is completely new to me?
Based + W + I the Allmighty official Phanes and God of Genshin impact approve and agree
I'm going to twist your nuts
STOP
Good for you buddy
Alright bro. Elaborate.
Nah, I'd enjoy the game
That's great but....like what's the point of the post?đ
Karma farming. This post has no substance.
Man that's so pitiful
To spread positivity. My entire feed is people complaining here and there. This was a nice changeÂ
Really? Mods delete every post complaining lol
This was deleted as well but was reinstatedÂ
Holy shit this low effort post got MANUALLY âokâed by the modsđ I get spreading positivity but come on. This definitely breaks the rules regarding sub quality.
If people consider this as positivity, wow the standards for "positivity" have dropped đ This post has nothing denoting "positivity", get a grip on realityđ
Damn, now saying you like something is no longer "positivity"? The world really is a strange place now.
And no need to be a dick to the other guy
To be honest posting "I like this thing" on a sub dedicated to said thing is literally the lowest bar for positivity you could ever set, like if OP talked about literally anything then there would be a better argument for it as a positivity post.
Still better than every post about not having gamba pulls
I don't see any posts like those because mods delete anything criticising, but funny how they don't even acknowledge stupid posts like this
We all do, even the so called âungratefulâ players. These ungrateful players only want for the game to get more addition. Imagine if every Genshin player was like âYou slayy Mihoyo! Love everything!!â Anniversary rewards would probably cease to exist, weapon banner would be a full blown atrocious banner, these QOLs we see today wonât exist. A shitty player would be someone shaming you for playing Genshin.
people need to realize you can enjoy a game and criticize the game/dev at the same time
Comment deleted by user
No we wouldn't as games aren't developed in a vacuum and genshin updates have consistently been as a result of community feedback and criticism, pretending that if we never talked about it we'd have the exact same game right now is uhh, it's a take that's for sure.
Yeah no shit, but these two aren't separate and social media showing dissatisfaction has quite often led to that precious money drying up, again trying to pretend that these two have no connection is just a weird disconnect from reality.
Nope itâs their playerbase as well. Genshin in China collabs a lot for a reason to increase their reach and make their company look positive as well. They wonât read reddit Iâm not that delusional and we all know that, but they do notice their reviews on their main site and apps. It makes it even more hilarious to see you people defend companies on reddit, they clearly donât care about comments on here so why do people get so offended that you criticise their game, like youâre criticising their wife or parents. Pretty sure everything can be discussed on this reddit, and itâs true Genshin is slacking on rewarding 3 yr players like me, giving me endgame so I have some USE of these characters Iâve built for a long ass time with their sig weaps and cons. I know money speaks as well and thatâs why I donât spend anything on the game currently and had quit when it was 3.7 till 4.1. People criticise the game cause they care about it and have invested time and $$ into it. Also ur forgetting the entire Zhongli drama if u think shit would improve just by itself. Same with the weapon banner. Same with 1st anniversary⌠should I go on?
You nailed it
Zhongli would be considered worse than Dehya levels of bad.
Noooo you guys don't even have free 5 star , and no endgame content. Why are you having fun you should just leave genshin đžđž
In what wild times we live, that posting positivity post about liking a a game in a subreddit dedicated to the said game causes butthurt
Glad to see you enjoying Genshin.
same
Ok.
I have a problem with your opinion quit having fun
-someone from twitter/who watches tectone and becomes part of his hivemind chat probably
Best post ever
Honestly weâve had so much negativity on this sub the last few days. There may not be much to this post, but thank you for bringing some positivity to my feed. I too, like Genshin. Been playing since 1.0
We 1.0 players have seen some real sh*t
The 1 billion primogems raffle. I shiver everytime i remember it
you guys havent seen anything 36 hours awake just for cbt3 access and lose it because of mods decision to change the event rules last hours in the discord server :) pretty funs times indeed
Comment deleted by user
Plenty of people see the negative posts before they get taken down. I know I sure have
You donât know what posts Iâm talking about, because theyâre still up. So many of the posts hiding behind ânegative opinionsâ are way more malicious than they appear, often hating on specific types of players or just looking to start fights. Itâs nice to just have some positivity for a change.
I keep hearing this but no one has actually given proof of that. You say something like genshin needs late game with no context and youâll be banned
Trust me, look around some. A lot of people are taking that way too far. Though there are some fun ones. Like that guy who said we were all hopeless and prejudiced against billionaires for not blindly thanking Hoyo for giving us any rewards. He was fun!
Cant wait for 3 additional wishes!
Good for you, honestly. I'm really dissatisfied with the state of the game right now personally and not even regarding the gifts, which are admittedly, terrible as well. Saving for Arlecchino is the only thing that keeps me logging in.
224/350 for C0R1 đŞ
Arenât the gifts the exact same as normal? A free four star, a ten pull, a free skin, and normal limited event rewards? Just because you donât get a skin of your v choice(which leakers rarely suggested anyways) that doesnât make the rewards worse than normal.
It's funny to see the comments attacking you for saying, you like the game. The game has flaws, we need to express it and not blindly defend everything. But the ones attacking players for just 'liking' the game is equally dumb as those who defend every flaw of the game.
It's kind of funny reading some of the really dramatic comments. I didn't know liking the game could be interpreted in so many different ways.
I agree, while there are still things to do.
The biggest problem the game has, is lack of things to do with your characters once all exploration is done and dusted.
Sure, thereâs spiral abyss, once every two weeks or so if you are into that. There is also TCG, if thatâs your cup of tea. But if you donât take part in those, there isnât much left beside grinding artifacts.
And letâs be honest, events, spiral abyss, and using resin to grind donât take a lot of time to complete.
The game needs something like TCG, that is not TCG. Something to use your characters for.
Personally, I think it could use some sort of hoard mode, or perhaps a type of domain where we can select what we fight. I know that would keep me occupied for quite a while as I fine tune my teams and rotations.
But as it sits, this great game feels shallow once you have finished exploration.
I know a lot of people complain about the lack of things to do once the current content is done, but that's like nearly every game in existence. Only difference is that Genshin gets new stuff to do every six weeks.
If you have a backlog of games then you can easily play anything else until a new update rolls around. If you're strapped for cash then there's always some games going free for a promo, or even on Epic Store where there's a new free game every month.
To be honest between companion quests, major character story quests, archon quests, world quests and side quests as well as resin spending unless you play well over 10-20 hours a week you'd be hard pressed to get through all of the content in a patch before the next one comes out.
It's a game that's designed around 15-30m of play a day while you're on the train to work, then you maybe spend a few hours on the weekend to get through the chunkier content, way too many people try to play it 3+ hours a day and then genuinely act surprised when they burn through all the content, there's basically no game in existence that can keep up with that level of play.
They should have a mode similar to the Combat Challenges from Batman Arkham. They were horde-mode events similar to the Abyss, points were scored depending on your combat style (e.g. in Genshin terms - not missing an attack, not getting hit, doing plunge/charged attacks, using elemental reactions etc).
Something like this is literally all they would need to do to make a lot of players happy yet they refuse cause they think their players are a bunch of babies that get anxious over video games.
From what we all see in these subs Genshin players act like children at least haha

Good for you man, hope you enjoy đ
My god the amount of babies in this comment section. We need a new sub for these people to complain on. Need more positive posts like this, even if there is no substance.
I love Genshin Impact. I supported artists by buying Genshin Impact merch at conventions. I have commissioned art based on the game. I followed a fair amount of content creators. Iâm addicted to Genshin fanfiction. To top it all off, Iâve spent thousands buying genesis crystals for primogems.
I used to defend it.
When the first anniversary came around and we were given nothing. I was upset and vocal about it. They heard us and fixed it by deconstructing a paid bundle and giving it for free. I didnât think that was enough but people convinced me that its their first anniversary.
We shouldnât expect so much in our first year. As more time goes on, rewards will improve. Iâve been told that I should not complain, I should not compare Genshin Impact to other gacha games because they are not from the same company. That Lantern Rite is the true anniversary so I need to get over it.
After watching the 4.4 livestream, Iâm done spending money on this game. I didnât expect a free skin selection but I expected a special freebie since Star Rail is getting Dr. Ratio. The same company handed out a free limited five star in the very first year, without an ingame event associated with it. The game won an award, Genshin has won many times over and yet people are taking a stand. And they are saying, that Genshin will give out rewards when they have good competition. WellâŚIâm tired.
I still love it, ill be playing, enjoying theories and leaks, reading my fanfiction â¤ď¸, but my money will be going elsewhere.
Sorry for the long post, just had to get it out of my system. Time for dailies!
when you avoid the community this game is so easy to love lol
Finally someone that isn't whining
Fun but stingy game
Me too.
Genshin just tickles all that soft spot for me.
Open world. Good combat mechanics. Always updating. New things to do. Just relaxing gameplay. No pressure of doing anything.
It is. Sadly most people overlook what can they enjoy, exploring areas to open chests, doing quests, appreciating the amazing music, card game, combats or challenges. All for FREE, no one's obligated to pay even. But instead, many succumb to the gambling addiction, demanding more currency to open more packs with loop that will never ends.
Well I respect your opinion
Why donât you back that up with a source?

How is this toxic positivity? It's just plain ol' positivity. It's not like OP is telling you how to feel or anything. If you wanna be upset you do you but "toxic positivity" is more than just "I'm not feeling it right now."
It was a single sentence post!! đđ The actual body was TWO WORDS. I have no idea where someone got alllll of that from a six, seven word post.Â
Jesus Christ, help me understand what is happening to this subreddit.Â
I won't say the game is perfect Plus there is a lot of issues in the game. it's is not a horrendous game but the fact that in 4 years we haven't received anything regarding the standard banner update like HSR in 300 standard pulls you get a choice you can pick a character you want and even them receiving a free five star character that is limited is amazing we just want to have the same thing that is reasonable as the parent company of HSR and genshin is the same soo Plus the fact to get a skin selector you have to buy a ps5 that is just ridiculous if you can't give a free five star character a skin selector would not be as good cause i need to pull the character first .
Ps : I am not saying GENSHIN is garbage it needs to be atleast a little bit like HSR seriously it's just disappointing.
This was a pain to read.
Please use more punctuation.
Ok sure but hopefully you understood what I'm trying to say .
Yes.
How dare you?!
It is a fun game engaging indeed
Itâs just seasonal depression at this point. Take some vitamin D.
I agree my guy. Dont let these haters bring you down đŻđŻâď¸âď¸đĽđĽđĽâď¸đŻđĽ
I too like Genshin Impact :)
Hive five OP âđť
Me too, wish I had resin to play it.
alr if you like genshin then you must answer the most important question...
Who do you main?
Im not accepting anyone except Hu Tao as a valid answer
So do I
I think most of us do otherwise we wouldn't be here.
Me too
Great, keep playing.
I liked it too, been playing for about 4 months.
There are issues though. Fun, but it can be better.
Edit: typo
Me too :)
it likes you, too.
Sir, having fun is not allowed here. j
Random thought, did they ever fix monas c1 yet?
Eh?
Me too.
Me too! We have so much in common
Me 2
yes, me too đ
Same here!
Me too man đżđ¤
Seeing some positivity about this game makes me so happy for some reason đđ
you lose all your 50/50s
Courageous thing to say around here
Word, my friend. Word.
Glad to see simple positive comment sometime here, need more of that
What unrelatable fanfic is this?? Wild.
Anniversary rewards
Wait till you play star rail
Wait until you get anniversary gifts đ

All that which a man needs.
You losers really are negative huh

exatcly my thoughts about the game.
I love genshin impact
this is a good bait lmao
Genshin Impact is a very good game despite a lot of things going against it
not people being unfathomably triggered for a literal nothingburger
"literally nothing was written" exactly, so it doesnt matter. move on. if a bait essay was written you can argue. this post is a single sentence.

And what is it that you want us to discuss? Should we disagree with u or sth?
No punchline?
I agree đ
White knight! Bootlicker! Stop defending a multimillion corporation!
That's fine only stupid people complain about people having fun with the game, I just think it's good to have healthy debates about the state of the game... but tbf people are too extreme they either love genshin and everything you say its wrong or they hate genshin and everything you say is wrong sigh, popular of being a really popular game ig
Im happy your having fun.
I, however am not.
...it's what I thought too until a couple of updates back
....And other hilarious jokes you can tell yourself.
CHAPTER 1
Itâs a great game with a wonderful world to explore⌠just donât expect things like challenge, end game, or a generous dev team.
