Genshin Impact Is FINALLY Getting Better!!

[@Soparandom]

Thank you Wuthering Waves for being the competition that Genshin needed. If it not for Wuthering Waves, we may not get these types of QoL and other free stuff

[@depressoexpresso8469]

And hope this continues, I play wuwa and been hoping this would happen, I'm happy for you guys now finally getting what you deserve after years

[@Not-a-bot301]

Still annoying to see genshin shill deny it though

[@RomenVoid]

true

[@DT-bo1zk]

@@Not-a-bot301 can always tell them genshin took 4 years, wuwa took 2-3 months for 90% of those same results XD

[@fransoamf]

If you're on 50/50, especially if you lost a lot of 50/50 recently, there's a random chance to activate the "Capturing Radiance". If it is activated, you'll see the animation AND you are guaranteed to get the temporary 5* of the banner. Overall that means the odds of getting a temporary 5* is increased from 50/50 to 55/45. Now if the "Capturing Radiance" animation doesn't trigger, it doesn't mean you lost your 50/50.

Bro I have only won 2 5050 in 2.5 yrs of playing 😂. I don't know should I cry or laugh

[@vengeancewillbemine2104]

All thanks to WuWa, they wont change if not for them.. finally worthy competitor wake hoyo from a long sleep

[@queru2284]

This 5-star selector is a couple years too late. Most of those characters are powercreeped to oblivion and pretty useless. I would preferred to get 10 pulls instead of this tbh. It changes nothing. It would be so much better if it was selector for all the 1.x limited characters.

[@queru2284]

The only thing I'm exited about is artifact selector tbh. But I don't keep my hopes up about it too knowing how they fumbled artifact strongbox system.

[@date5960]

​@@queru2284 the mechanic of arrtifact selector was literally shown right before your eyes so idk how you think they could fumble it. It is what it is

[@mybeaniebooz9601]

Theres no way its a coincidence.. even the natlan characters have a side bar thay works almost identical to wuwa's forte circut

im hurt and frustrated it took them this long.😞 😩

[@cjvaans4484]

Thanks, Wuwa 😊

[@Doro-bashi]

Too good for Genshin to finally do something, The rewards are the average for most Games, but is something, sure After 4 years of being neglected they can finally taste a bit of what other games usually give at anniversaries

[@mdtb3934]

After 4 years of painstakingly anniversary finally 'Genshin could'

[@skyhart9926]

More like “Took them long enough”

[@maymeoo21]

Truly,GI set the bar too low that when they do the bare minimum players will impressed by that.

[@Koulechov]

the bar really is beneath hell at this rate

[@tetraavalon3664]

Saw so many people hyping it up so much. The improvements are good for genshin standards, but the excitement levels are TOO high. Saying this as someone who still plays the game. The artifact part is the best for me. The weapon change still feels like crap to me after playing WuWa. They just couldn't take the plunge and be like WuWa for weapons. Hoyo's greed is unimaginable.

[@larawaterson]

0:14 I'm interested 😮 Also I'm pretty sure that when this mechanic is triggered, it means you won your 50/50. But yes you do need a chance to trigger it in the first place 🤣

[@VxVFiction]

heey that's what im talking about!

[@Sakuraid]

When you get the new animation the event character is guaranteed but you can also get the normal animation and still get the event character. even in a 50/50 situation

[@jureb2278]

Too little too late, Hoyo. Although I have to admit it is nice seeing their greedy asses having to bend the knee. I wish all Genshin players the best, but for me, I am done with any and every Hoyoverse product.

[@Miguel-vv9hd]

Not better when this was after 4 years + they haven't fixed the major issues with the game, example map exploration feels too slow because of scuffed climbing + shit stamina bar and also because its pay 2 win litrly, you need the 5 star weapons that give you speed + best exploration units and the exploration still doesn't feel right. Major issue too is the no Skip Cutscene button.

[@painkiller8101]

This would've ever happened without wuwa

[@Michplay]

14:13 the artifact system is what me made stop spending. Not getting a artifact with the right main stat and crit rate en chrit dmg for more then a year really ffed with my brain. The first 2 years i spend a few thousand on this game but knowing i would never get the most out of my spending on characters just really irritates me. If i now can get the right stats i can finally spend on characters again. Because the rng on rolling 4th substat is already enough of a headache, because 9-10 that stat is def of hp and 9-10 the artifact rolls all upgrade levels into that stat and that’s already a pain. When you finally get a crit rate, crit dmg and engr artifact and that last one rolls hp and every upgrade is hp, after getting this artifact for over a year, thats what happened thats why i stopped spending. And i hope more people did because thats what you need to do. You give them your money so They need to do everything to make it it’s worth spending on the game, and not get ffed later on After you spend money. Why do people are OK with this ? Is this a gable addiction thing? I can’t understand, are you also thinking that for example you put 100 dollars/euros in a slot machine you need to add more to get it back? Because at that point i would just quit, take my loss and never go back but do these people think you must put in more?

[@zente3003]

Kay, so, about that box of mint I promised you

[@sadelien339]

2:53 , so basically if you in your 50/50 and you're going to lose it, you have 55% chance that you'll get saved by that thing, it guaranteed to get the limited 5 star you want if you get that animation

[@limkorvey1929]

Not gonna lie this update is sth. And damn there are some crazy baiting shits as well.

[@lekoknightgaming8071]

I'm going to be real Besides the freebies: 1. Weapon banner is still shit compared to limited banners, all because of those annoying fate points. If you fail to get that weapon you will have to restart afresh in another weapon banner if you couldn't pull the weapon of your desire 2. 5 star selector for new players is good. For old players? Not that much. I see more people either getting the ones they don't have or getting a free pull from there instead lol 3. Choosing Main and sub stats is actually the main thing, especially for those trying to build that God forsaken crimson witch of flames from that annoying domain. With it I can finally get rid of the annoying pyro dmg bonus that has no crit sub stats lol. But knowing Genshin, getting those things as f2p will be hell. So I still believe Wuwa echos > Genshin artifacts 4. Harder content at WL9? Finally! I'm actually tired of Oneshotting everything with Arlechinno in my opinion Overall good changes but nah Imma stick with Wuwa

[@Koulechov]

considering the core gameplay, harder mobs just means more hp sponges instead of really well thought mechanics🙁

i remember my double off 5 star in weapon banner just to get Yelan's bow. its so unfair for old players. and as i expected, even if there is QOL upgrade, the QOL upgrade is half assed.

[@ardee9337]

I remember since it was just like only 2-3 mos. ago when people especially Genshin fans were mocking WuWa for being too generous for giving out a total of 4 five stars(3 characters and 1 weapon) saying that they were desperate, the game sucks that's why they needed to do it and that no one would play WuWa if they didn't "bribe" people with ridiculous free rewards. Fast-forward to now, look what we have here Genshin of all gacha games finally giving a free 5* 🤣. All we should just say is thanks WuWa for existing if not for that game Genshin would have still "NEVER" done something like this despite how mid their "anniversary" rewards are compared to WuWa's launch rewards.

[@TopTOBiiiii]

Lmaaoo I'm gonna annoy them with the "so Genshin gave free 5* now because they know no one will play the game without it?" whenever they shit on Kuro's generosity 😂

I hope they continue being this good because I still have some distrust toward them. i need to see consistent patterns, not just one-offs.

[@skyhart9926]

‼️‼️ *we still need saveable artifact custom loadouts* ‼️‼️ i’m so tired switching artifact pieces ONE BY ONE if i wanna change a character’s build. and one by one AGAIN if i wanna switch back to the first equipped artifact set. like seriously, this needs to be addressed. many characters have more than 1 viable build depending on team comp and battle situation. i don’t understand why after 4 years, we still don’t have artifact custom loadouts.

[@ittehitteh9322]

some people would defend genshin harder than they defend their pride irl

[@RomBeams8840]

Clarification on two things: The fancy 55/45. An easy way to think of it is this: you're ahout to lose the 5050 but then you trigger the 10% chance to not lose the 5050 (the fancy orange/pink glow) then you win your 5050. The artifact elixir: You can make 1 per cycle from artifacts (we dont know what a cycle is) and you get 1 from f2p BP while premium gets i think 2? Also the costs for making an artifact vary: Flowers and Feathers cost 1 Elixir. Sands cost 3 Elixir Goblets cost 4 Elixir Circlet is still blank None of this is leaks. It was in the livestream if you slow it down. Except the feather im speculating on that. Also we're limited to crafting what seems to be 1 artifact per set with the Elixir per cycle.

[@randomorc9493]

And then WUWA give LIMITED characer + their signature weapon selector....LMAO!

[@Hudson_Legend]

There's a signature weapon selector in wuwa?

[@DT-bo1zk]

@@Hudson_Legend nope, that is just standard 5* selector, you still need to pull limited ones but at least those are 100% guaranteed at pity

Also as someone that only plays coop 99% of the time because it’s better in every way possible, I’ve noticed less new players over the last year and matching takes longer when Hoyo does something that makes the community mad lol I can’t prove that but it’s just funny

[@byooob]

I heard that you can only use the elixir once per month per artifact set.

[@herbertcoxe3601]

Me having to get 3 weapons every time 🤡

[@redfoxakame]

Knowing you win/lose the 50/50 before you open it would've been a big L imo. That's where the fun is coming from in gacha and why someone like me is addicted to gacha - the thrill of not knowing whether you win or lose. It's more satisfying to win that way.

[@TopTOBiiiii]

That's what I'm saying

[@nottyseel949]

c4 Mona is actually among the strongest buffers in the game, ahead of c2 Kazuha, c6 Bennett, and c3 Furina. She's also easy to use in teams that can't quite sync with the other top tier supports. So, if close to c4, I'd recommend Mona over any of the other choices.

[@magallanthepenguin9132]

wow these are some big changes. more likely i will pull for weapons now. this is my thought. when the game detects you lose 50 50...they do another quick re spin but with higher rates. for the 5 star free...i played genshin for at 3 years. i rather have 20 more limited pulls than a free standard character tbh but i can see how this selector is great for newer players. this reminds me of blue archive getting spooked. you know how you need 7 of the characters to c6 a character... well i lost six 50 50s on itto and only won one 50 50. indeed. losing 50 50 is a pain im a welkin moon buyer

[@Nataninko]

I won't give them any W 4 years of shit and if Wuwa hadn't come out they wouldn't do anything to improve I have to see them go above and beyond rather than doing the bare minimum, I trust them to somehow fuck up the anniv like always Regardless I'll be keeping an eye out to see what happens... I don't trust them but we'll see...

@@date5960 1st of all They fixed some things, not everything 2nd yes I'm sorry to tell you this but no free standard 5 stars character after 4 years of shit will solve or make me trust the Genshin devs again The qoL updates that they brought and will bring (in V5.0) should've been there years ago Years of not listening to your community and ignoring them will not be solved within 1 patch, you need to show people that you've actually changed for the community overtime We all know that if Genshin wouldn't have had compettion they never would've dared to listen to the community feedback... from years ago! So excuse me when I say that I need to see them go far and beyond to give them any W

3 pull was for lantern rite, not annyversary. we get 20 pulls every anny except the very first one.

[@ghiutaionut7730]

So, for 4 years when Genshin Impact swim in glory and money, we've been treated with ignorance and without any sign of appreciation during the anniversary. Now, after Wuthering Waves released and people stop spending and playing, they now cares??? You should be really naive and blind to belive all of this. For them what is matter is your money and not the community needs. I don't know why everyone is celebrating for a 5* standard character? Yeah, for collection maybe in case you didn't get a specific one or being a new player could help but for a veteran doesn't mean nothing. I'm happy that I decided uninstalled and choosing Wuthering Waves.

Wrong. New player: half progress and then quit, missing many events and wont be catch up. Returning: Nah, too hurt to come back, come back to claim and off for another year again or doesnt care about it. Veteran: Nope, gonna be dissapointed again.
