March 7thson is literally a Mash that's fun at parties tho, and the trailblazer kinda feels like an improvement from the Traveler that just copied the classic self-insert bait formula. Genshin safely took the classic stuff but in here they went beyond it
The campaign's pace is still bad tho no one can deny that.

>Traveler that just copied the classic self-insert bait formula
moron what? They tried making the traveller his own character in 3.0. And it's fucking awful. People shit on self-inserts but this character they have created for him is so bad it drags down the story. Hell, even in 4.0 where they made him less annoying and unlikeable, there's still some shitty parts of his "fixed character" like how he spergs whenever Scara is on screen.

Imagine spending $5000 early so you can reach level cap and gambling on multiple characters and their dupe just so you can win(?) a $20 worth of gacha currency every month.
You need to play the game for more than 20 years just to get the same amount of currency from MoC.

she is consistent single target while other single target units require specific things like Arlan's Hp or Yanqing buff that is dispelled on hit
and is easy to build because you get a free light cone called Woof! Walk Time!
Are the writers on Honkey completely different to Genshin?
The quality of the writing and quests are so much better that I find it difficult to think they're the same.
If that's true I'm glad I enjoy sci-fi more than fantasy. Hope this game ends up expanding as much as Genshin did. It'd be nice if new worlds come quicker too as it's not open world.
I dropped Genshin pretty fast because I don't give a shit about any of the characters but the Honkai MC is so fucking cute and autistic and the story is not complete shit. Not to mention I love turn based games. Zelda slop is not for me.
Zhongli and Raiden were interesting but everyone else kinda sucked. Never played Sumeru though.
It won't, simply because zoomers have ADHD and cannot handle anything that is not in real time. The game is too slow and boring for them.
Not to mention it doesn't have that open world effect.
>It's more fantasy than Star Wars
Ehhh, debatable. They contextualize the Aeons and powers pretty well. Magic doesn't seem as notable as the Force in Star Wars
The Aeons are just magic, my dude. What are you even talking about. Literally every power that characters show come from this "magic".
Star Wars only has the Jedi and Sith with magical powers, and even then that's not that flashy(telekinesis and sometimes lightning).
Here we have motherfuckers throwing fire, ice, black holes and having giant electrical Stands. That's fantasy as shit

Always remember this when people tell you you can play for free. In 99% of cases they have bought a battle pass or gems, and will say things like, "but it's like buying a $60 game so it doesn't matter." They are a bunch of gambling addicts, never trust them.
that fucking premium battle pass gives you upgrade materials too

Not paying a single cent for any gacha, dunno why people should force me to paid them or think I actually did.
There is no point of paying it anyway when the game literally got no ranking or pvp content like a literal MMO.
I dropped Genshin pretty fast because I don't give a shit about any of the characters but the Honkai MC is so fucking cute and autistic and the story is not complete shit. Not to mention I love turn based games. Zelda slop is not for me.
It certainly almost feels like it. The character sidequests are actually about the characters themselves instead of centering it around some random NPC.
All problems that have been pointed at Genshin's writing and gameplay are solved in star rail. Playable characters exist in the world, story quests focus on the character in the story not random NPCs, they don't repeat everything said 4 times to stall for time, and there's a skip button
Farming can be done easily, relics/artifacts are secondary too level and talent level, skip button, no paimon, world isn't empty even if it's smaller. Rewards are actually greater in mini events, so probably greater in major events too. 420 Primos in genshin to 600 Jade in Starrail etc.
Correct

Correct

And additionally, the CORE gameplay is completely fucking different. One is a character action game and one is a JRPG.
I've stopped playing it as of today.
I'm basically done, I've realized that it's just gonna be the same shit every day to grind numbers that mean nothing with gameplay that looks good but isn't engaging.
Also because battlepass/FOMO style live service elements in games just demotivate me and make me quit forever rather than waste time trying to keep up with the endless churn.
So I quit.
But she also voices Hook, does Hook's voice make you hard? Also with how many characters from Genshin came back, like Rosaria into Natasha, it's funny how Paimon's voice actress is entirely ignored
>But she also voices Hook, does Hook's voice make you hard?
No because she puts on a gremlin voice for Hook, bitch has range
Clara is also pretty good especially when you consider that's the same VA that does Klee
I hate that all Genshin content creators jumped on the Star Rail bandwagon. I was hoping the game will die once the sponsored shill streams stop but I guess we'll have to wait for Fontaine for them to come back.
Why do retards start using words like "dopamine" and "gambling" when discussing gacha games? moron you bought a dessert for 4.99€ because it taste good and you feel good about it but suddenly spending 5€ a month is a bad dopamine hit?

>when you have full stack of remembrance powers + the nihility one that applies random debuffs when attacking weakness broken enemies
Watching those shitty bosses lose 80% of their health bar in a single turn when everything snaps off after getting my ass beat on other paths was the most cathartic I've ever felt in this game
I managed to kill her at level 40 cap by getting two dewdrop 3 stars blessings that enhanced your damage from healing and max HP.
Took lot of RNG for sure, but my Nat who only can do 200 dmg normal attack became almost 15k because She's the only unit that got 3k max HP, others do also got the same buff and do insane damage.
She buffs atk and crit stats but the buffs are super limited and restricting, probably given how strong they are. Her skill applies two stacks of a party wide buff on herself. The next two party member actions have atk boosted. So unless your next two characters taking action are dps, your skill is pretty much wasted. Also her ult only applies the crit buff if she has stacks of her skill in play. Otherwise it just does damage to the target.
Holy shit, it does work with Clara's counter and it doesn't reduce the buff count while the attack buff still active during counter.

I would say that it would have to be "targeted" the counter doesn't trigger on anything that isn't you deciding to do it to them, so dots don't count, followups don't count, counters don't count. It has to be you the player deciding to hit an enemy.
I'm just glad that the content in this game inherently can't devolve into 90% themepark bullshit that has nothing to do with the core gameplay like what's happened to Genshin. That alone makes me want to keep playing.
Genshin has kept adding minigames that usually get focused for a week then forgotten about like the teapot or fishing, or get overused to the point of no one liking them like the TCG. Once you have one party with a level 90 10/10/10 DPS there's really not much reason to do anything else if you don't like the new characters so they keep adding more non combat things to do or bosses or enemies that require you to use specific elements. People say Hoyo has forgotten geo, but they forgot that Geo was the only element they cared about for 8 months
I'll admit that there's a few too many puzzles. I don't have a problem with some puzzles in theory, as it helps break the gameplay up a bit. What I do have a problem with is entire events dedicated to card games, co-op tag, bing-bing wahoo simulators, and so on. I can't see that shit happening in Star Rail.
Well they might add some more different puzzles but that's all.
There's a heavy focus on quests which probably won't change, the writing quality might deteriorate though.

You're telling me if you had a pussy you wouldn't let him snag your hips with his little paws and cram his animal dick in you???
I love this little kawaii shitter like you wouldn't believe.
I don't really dislike him but I'm really glad that they don't shove him up your ass. I'm tired of all those Fous and other kawaii shitter mascots.
At least Fou never said a word in the game except some times when Merlin showed up. I think GBF started the shitty trend of talking mascots being little fucks in every single dialogue.

How do you make a game with billions of dollars in budget but give it literally zero content?
I literally cannot progress because my relics are all shit. They really thought they could do Genshin's system on a turn based game.
Epic kusoge.
How? Game literally prevents you from scrapping your relics if they have any exp. How did you dingus the game up so bad?
Read slowly next time
Anon unless you are talking MOC, no content "needs" perfect relics with perfect substatus.
