Getting Nahida and Wanderer have both proven to me that you don't actually need new characters if you have a handful of highly gear invested teams . There's literally nothing I can do with them that can even come close to what I can do with Xiangling, Bennett and Childe

They did the same thing with Traveler and Paimon's voice line that mentioned Rukkhadevata which is kinda weird because the Traveler should remember her but I guess Paimon wouldn't know who they're talking about.

In my case Wanderdouche wins just for not having that cringe-inducing pogo stick gameplay, I really can't take it and his damage doesn't make it worth it to me.

Then again, I skipped Wanderer coz I'm super satisfied after finally getting my first Qiqi and will now wait for Yaoyao or a very good banner with Collei / Faruzan.

Add me to the Dehya waiting room. I don't even care if she sucks butt, I want her.

But please don't let her suck butt.

After that, dunno. I hear it's common for Archon reruns to happen 4 patches after their debut, so I'll probably go for Nahida. 3.4 and 3.6 being area expand patches should help a lot with saving, too.

The people who hate Windtrace are the people who either get anxiety in coop gameplay or the people who get overly competitive (because if your luck is bad it can be almost impossible to winl. If you ask me, the trick to Windtrace is not to care whether you win or lose. Just fuck around and enjoy yourself.

I'm sure there's already rule 34 material covering that. ;)

Not a huge fan of Windtrace anymore, but it's fine compared to plenty of the other seasonal content. Looking at you, tower defense game that will not be named.

The bottom line is that Genshin doesn't have an endgame and probably never will, and that really bums me out because it ultimately makes you wonder why you spent money on it.

It's actually kind of funny that Genshin has the literal exact opposite problem of all other Gacha games - the game is just too easy and there's no reason to roll on characters after you have some team comps built. Whereas Gachas usually power creep.

Stop believing random PR bullshit.
Whether we will or won't get more endgame is something only Mihoyo knows. If there is strong demand for it, they'll think of something.

As soon as the current Abyss F12 is no longer enough to bait people into paying, they'll think of something.

Is there, though? Or is it just a small minority of hardcore players talking to each other about wanting harder "endgame" content while the actual player base mostly just wants casual fun that isn't challenging? I think it's likely that the devs get FAR more feedback complaining about the game being too hard than people asking for harder content.

Look at the Playstation achievements for this game. The number of people who have even cleared Spiral Abyss (just cleared, they don't even have an achievement for getting 36*) is really low. Like, less than 10% IIRC. And that's for Playstation players. Mobile players are a more numerous, and usually are more casual than console players on top of it.

So yeah... from the devs' perspective, they're probably getting lots of pushback every time they give us challenging combat, so I can understand why they may not feel motivated to give us high difficulty "end game" content.

Actually, considering MHY's response, the vast majority likely wants the game to stay casual while the small but very vocal minority wants more challenge.

Notice events keep becoming easier, any really nasty beta enemy types get nerfed bigtime.

The other thing they (occasionally) do is add a super hard mode to something, but that mode either has negligible rewards (like 4 weapon XP crystals) or no rewards at all.

Nothing will ever top that absolutely insane Triple Kenki boss event with the modifiers. I'm pretty sure it was literally impossible to beat unless you had a full team of C6 5-stars.

That reminds me, what ever happened to getting artifact XP as rewards? I feel like that'd be a good challenge reward that is useful (unlike crystals) but also farmable in the OW so casuals shouldn't complain about it.

I'd say the rewards we need more are talent and weapon upgrade materials (not exp).
Artifact fodder is a very insignificant garbage reward, just as useless as weapon exp.

I would love to be able to transform artifacts into the artifact exp items immediately from the domain rewards screen though. Or tag for alchemy transformation.

So is there any reason to roll on Ayato's constellations if I already have a completely maxed out Childe? Because I'm getting close to a guaranteed hard pity, and I'm thinking maybe I should just wait for a while.

Upgrade materials are locked behind resin for the most part and would therefore cause complaints, so that wouldn't work.

I actually use the Artifact XP from the Teapot. You'll always have the need for leveling artifacts for new or existing characters due to the amount of RNG. If it weren't for me pulling multiple 5* weaps I'd have ~4k unused crystals (not including the thousands of unrefined ores).
