none of it goes back into the game
what's that? you want more shitty web events, concerts, music videos and anime instead of better gameplay content? say no more
All of that stuff is pennies compared to the billions they've made. Most of it goes into funding their giant metaverse project and brain interface unveiling around 2030 that they started a joint venture with neuroscience labs to research and develop.

Let's not forget Mihoyo is trying to solve the energy crisis.
Why the FRICK are people spending money on this game? I've been playing since day 1 and havent spent a dime. The game is 100% playable with 4*s and theyre generous with their gem handouts. Not to mention they have a Pity System so youre gonna get 5*s eventually....
The same reason someone would pay $60 for a virtual plane in War Thunder.
>Why the FRICK are people spending money on this game?
Go read some books about the Neuroscience of addiction and signaling.
>Muh addiction
Yeah let's pretend every single human on Earth are living from paycheck-to-paycheck for the goys and pretend that there isn't people who actually have a stable bank account and don't mind buying the top-up bonus once a year.
Anon, addiction is not defined by losing so much money that you become homeless and lose your job...
You are addicted to spending money on a gacha game, it's time to stop coping.
Maybe... just maybe some of the players are working adults who don't have the time to grind but have the money to burn so they don't mind spending cashes on crystals or whatever the frick currencies you gachaBlack folk have? I don't even play any gacha but I sure as hell can understand the mentality of the big spenders. How about you stop being neetgger and try working?
It's the equivalent of being let into a themepark but not riding anything, you're never going to get the full experience even though you're technically free to roam around. It's just textbook psychological skinnerbox manipulation for those weak of mind.
>The game is 100% playable
It wouldn't be if no one was spending money moron, you think they'd keep a non-profitable game alive? kek Someone needs to spend money and all that matters is it not being (you), others getting fricked because of their gambling addiction is not my problem.
It's okay anon, just because I called you out on your moronic take there's no need to sperg just to cope with not thinking things through before shitposting.

it's okay anon. There's nothing wrong with gambling. Weak genes will just go through natural selection.
Pretty sure mobile trash like Candy Crush also brings in revenue like this
Also if you want the industry to follow in the steps of gachashit you are unironically a subhuman. Kys
Good.
Imagine 12 million paypigs with a taste for this garbage all spread out, infecting other games with their dementia.
LoL, Fortnite, Genchingchong, the greatest containment games ever made.
Seethe, cope and dilate.
BotW style exploration (but much better)
Average action game combat which is a little too easy especially outside the single end-game event, but fun to build teams.
mini-games and stuff for temporary events.
because they spent ten years censoring anything anime related because "It won't sell you're a small minority" before this anime game comes around and crushes every effort they have ever made?
Picture being the resetera moderator who keeps banning anime games from even being discussed because it's "niche shit for perverts" before being told that every game he's ever approved pales in comparison to this anime game that he hates with every fiber of his being. They are, indeed, afraid.
>What does a resetera moderator have to do with western devs
Resetera is a secret clubhouse to a number of developers and directors at large western devs. Valve, Epic, Naughty Dog, Sony, Xbox, it is the closest you can get to getting an ear on the zeitgeist of the western development community.
You can see it in action with storefronts like Steam and Epic banning tons of anime games for the most banal shit. If Genshin were a steam game it would have got the hammer ages ago despite Steam having literal porn on it.
In fact, there's a list of them:

needless to say, the western game industry is malding right now
>because they spent ten years censoring anything anime related because "It won't sell you're a small minority" before this anime game comes around and crushes every effort they have ever made?
Didn't FGO the first of its kind that break the spell of that? Though i suppose Genshin are much bigger than FGO at this point so the attention it has gotten are much bigger.
Western devs have been told woke is the future so they have been pivoting for years to ogres and goblinas as their protagonists just to get their shit smacked by this random startup company making a kusoge halfway across the globe. Now they're being told by investors to make all of their games like that one that they hate.
It's so vitriolic that you already have western game journalists making obvious shit-eating lies about how the game sending your information to China and giving you viruses just to stem the number of people playing it.
>by investors to make all of their games like that one that they hate.
They're being told to make f2p gacha games though. This does nothing but screw players over as we get more and more lootbox/live service shit in the future from triple AAA developers.
>This does nothing but screw players over
Investors don't care anon, they only care about making more money, which is why they want western devs to make a Genshin clone since that's the future of gachas and anyone too slow to chase this new trend will be left in the dust unless they create something really unique that grabs attention.
I mean it should.
Anime booba sells, and western devs have spent the better part of the decade banning, censoring, removing any hint of T&A from any game made anywhere in their sphere of influence. Even going as far as to get storefronts to act as de-facto publishers to have it changed or removed.
picture being so intimidated by a tit that you move heaven and earth to remove it. now picture that there's a game made in the place you think is literally satan that's just a giant collection of anime breasts and its doing better than any game you've made in the last twenty years. picture being the microshaft diversity hire that has to explain why they didn't publish this game when they asked.
There are only 2 types of genshin threads:
1. Sales numbers
2. Fanart dumping
That's it, nobody ever talks about the story or characters because they were written by autistic morons and AI's, the story of genshin is just shit. Nobody bothers talking about gameplay because it doesn't matter after they admitted to not doing endgame content, so why even bother with farming artifacts and wooden chests.
Shills aren't even trying anymore.
anon the gameplay sucks and the characters are just like the PNGs in other gachas, as in they're only good for porn. there is nothing to discuss besides how much money it does
I would say they're even worse. At least in PNG gachas they put effort into making them look distinct. Genshin's characters look like they were generated by an AI from the same handful of inputs.
who the FRICK is playing this game let alone spending money on it?? how can you get stoked to login and play your char who looks like a fucxkin 8 yr old girl, is it really just pedos on there like god damn...
No idea. The dicky characters are great, but the writing is done by an AI and there's not even the slightest hint of ero anywhere. It's just a very dry "log in and do your chores" game and eventually you just stop.
none of it goes back into the game

>let's just conveniently ignore how the game world just got 40% bigger in the past 3 months
Every time

yes, very nice
>exploration game
>gets new map
>NOOOOOO doesn't count, not content!!!
>play the game like a chore just to pull new characters
>this is somehow the game's fault
If you don't like exploration just go play something else

i have seen your angle. Now have a nice day.
The only thing you see is your chink overlords' pelvis as they thrust deep into your quivering throat. Get help and take meds.
such projection.
sucking wieners are what mmoBlack folk used to I guess.

just make more money and spend it on genshin. You will feel better. Your anger is the result of your being poor. Just make more money.
>he saw anger somewhere in that post
lol lmao even
i can sense that your genetically inferior family had someone fricked by real gambling.
you can keep denying it. But it's there.
It's okay anon, just because I called you out on your moronic take there's no need to sperg just to cope with not thinking things through before shitposting.

Seethe, cope and dilate.

But that's exactly what your post is.
>no u
Hit a nerve huh?
>Muh pride
>Muh elitism
Gaming industry will benefit a lot from you removing yourself from the gene pool
>literally seething
good, don't forget to cope and dilate
Based. The sooner the westoid game industry collapses, the better.
what exactly you do in this game? the /vg/ general is just a bunch of little girls in skimpy clothing.
BotW style exploration (but much better)
Average action game combat which is a little too easy especially outside the single end-game event, but fun to build teams.
mini-games and stuff for temporary events.
explore pretty places, fight monsters, and do puzzles mostly
kusoge without endgame
Nothing. You just wait for them to release either a new character to wank over, or a new part of the interactive novel to read.
China will grow larger
Why would this scare specifically western devs?
because they spent ten years censoring anything anime related because "It won't sell you're a small minority" before this anime game comes around and crushes every effort they have ever made?
Picture being the resetera moderator who keeps banning anime games from even being discussed because it's "niche shit for perverts" before being told that every game he's ever approved pales in comparison to this anime game that he hates with every fiber of his being. They are, indeed, afraid.
What does a resetera moderator have to do with western devs and a chinese gacha game that also censors itself, anon?

You can play Honkai Impact on Steam though.
Lmao, sounds like a bunch of old timers hating new trends for no reason
What anime game? I thought we were talking about Genshin.
>because they spent ten years censoring anything anime related because "It won't sell you're a small minority" before this anime game comes around and crushes every effort they have ever made?
Didn't FGO the first of its kind that break the spell of that? Though i suppose Genshin are much bigger than FGO at this point so the attention it has gotten are much bigger.
The difference is that Genshin is an open world game that appeals to normies, meanwhile only masochists want to deal with FGO's crap gameplay.

Sure, but without cute aesthetics and protagonists: it won't sell. It's a self correcting problem.

Can't wait for westoid gachas with blacks, trannies and goblin looking mf
I would play an urban genshin impact where you were fighting for ketchup packets at the mcdonalds

have a nice day

>Story writing is still shit
No wonder shills are on full force in Ganker, money can't buy good writers I guess.
You already made this thread again and again Chang, frick off with your shitty gacha.

Is that Melon22? Does my dick deceive me?
Don't worry, westoids will steal and destroy it with AI-generated anime art since nobody wants their shit.
who the FRICK is playing this game let alone spending money on it?? how can you get stoked to login and play your char who looks like a fucxkin 8 yr old girl, is it really just pedos on there like god damn...
sony made ~ 2 billions on genshin. Ask them
No idea. The dicky characters are great, but the writing is done by an AI and there's not even the slightest hint of ero anywhere. It's just a very dry "log in and do your chores" game and eventually you just stop.
>he fell for the "only pedos play it" meme
no one tell him
y-yeah, I'm just a pedo, haha, definitely not someone with mommy issues...
I mostly keep up with genshin to see autistic meltdowns on social media. Not even that interested in the porn; twitter makes me hard enough as is.
Starving sods will gobble poison.
I feel like most of the discussion in this game is about sales.
The community is literally dead and show how game itself is dog shit.
How so? Genshin is literally pozzed to shit. The devs aren't real otakus and are actual feminazis.
>gacha
not a videogame
