Today MiHoYo released a brand new and lovely trailer of its upcoming free-to-play action-RPG Genshin Impact.

The video includes mild spoilers.

This is a gacha game, which is really a big strike against it. Everything else looks amazing.. It will be interesting to see if it's good inspite of having a mobile microtransaction system that rewards whales and takes advantage of players.

Yup. I mean I cant wait to play it but the mts, pay2win, and gacha will probably make me sick to the bones and make me stop playing. I really wish it was a pay once $60 game but its mihoyo which has always been a mobile company so its expected I guess.

Atleast look into the game before you say all that lmao.

Hi Tefloj02. I have looked into it, extensively. It looks amazing, the open world, cooking, how you can freeze water and interact with the environment, and join up with friends for coop dungeons, the combat, voice action. It looks fantastic.

But that every character and weapon drop can be 1-5 star, sold for real word cash or a long grind (to encourage spending the cash) is in my opinion, not good. It's the same predetory micro transaction system seen all over mobile games.

So yes. I've looked into it. I love it. However this game does not need gacha. Its tacked on to make money from players by selling power, I am absolutely opposed to that.
