Genshin Impact is a jaw-dropping open-world anime extravaganza (TheSixthAxis)

TSA writes: "I refuse to believe Genshin Impact is real. Even after having played hours of it during the latest closed console beta, it’s a game that absolutely boggles my mind. This is arguably the most gorgeous game with an anime-style aesthetic I’ve ever played, and it’s free. It has a massive, beautifully rendered world full of monsters, treasure, dungeons, and NPCs… and it’s free. There are dozens of playable characters, and inventive element-mixing combat systems. It is free!"

Its really good. The game plays very well across mobile and pc. The open world on an ultrawide 21:9 monitor is especially beautiful.

I've never liked the look of those ultrawide monitors

[Asuka]

its definitely personal preference. The monitors themselves take up a lot of real estate on a desk. But the aspect ratio paired with a higher FOV let's you view more of the game world as more of the game is actually being rendered on screen. But yeah there is a reason ultrawide is still niche, and desktop footprint is a big reason for some.

You gotta own one to understand what's great about it. Games like FFXIV that the UI can get cluttered with, actually have room for all elements to be at a good size. Racing games, you get a much bigger view etc. I just think you gotta have the right FOV id all. When too high it begins to look stupid

If ultrawide TVs ever become commonplace I may get one.

Does this game have climbing?

[Asuka]

yes it does with a stamina bar

This out on Android yet ? Can't find it. Also any story to this or is it usual MMO stuff ?

[Asuka]

its not released yet. Also yes there is a main story quest, and it isn't an MMO tho it has some MMO-like gameplay elements.

Thanks lots for the info
