@CyborgForgael No need to invent the tire again. You can change the engine and add better mechanics visuals cinematics and more. You don't need to change core mechanics. You don't have 20 hours in wuwa. But ı have 200 hours in both at least. Also Genshin took more from zelda the breathe of the wild than wuwa took from genshin. From your perspective genshin is just the anime version of zelda. Look at the sword wield and magically disappearing animation also floating on air with glider bow usage world and enemy design. Materials we collect and etc. Wuwa made by kuro games and wuwa is not the first game of them they made punishing gray raven which has far better combat than genshin and character design. That s what pgr doing better and with wuwa kuro games surpassed the genshin by being story presentation also.

[@thattrickytrickster612]

I ALWAYS enjoyed Genshin for the world, lore and story since day one. The combat and gameplay is simple enough, but the exploration and music is what made me play it consistently ever since it came out. It's the first game I played where i actually felt as if i'm travelling a world. Wuwa, on the other hand, itches my Dark Souls gamer side greatly. I can get my satisfaction from all the movement techs to traverse the world, building and getting good with my teams, all the while with a serviceable story and a world that's pretty enough to chill in. TL;DR Genshin is my comfort game in which I just wander around and listen to the music while i appreciate the gorgeous. Wuwa is where I actually play the game to enjoy it.

[@manofthepeople2165]

remember when Genshin Impact came out and people.who played BotW 3 years earlier said that it was just a BotW clone? Some of those former Zelda players even refused to play Genshin (some people in Japan even boycotted Genshin). In the end, the two games were different in the important ways despite the similarities. I feel like Wuwa and Genshin are now in the same relationship 3 years later, where some Genshin players refuse to play Wuwa because they think it's just a Genshin clone. At the end of the day, I think it's irrelevant, if you enjoy the game, and have fun that's all that matters. If you refuse to give a game a chance because you think it's "just a clone" of another game you like, then suit yourself, you don't have to play that game.

[@sophiagiz]

I didn't refuse to play wuwa but was concerned about how interesting the lore would be, I was about to search about it until I saw literally one entirely group talk shit about Genshin. I asked "ok, gameplay wise wuwa is better, I already know that, Genshin has a lot of problems, but can you explain to me how is the story and lore of wuwa?", they kept saying world exploration and gacha were better and they couldn't explain about the story or lore cause they were only worried about it. like damn, why you are complaining about Genshin when definetly you played it for other reasons than the game was focused on? I felt I was wrong to play Genshin and I was a "moron to keep playing it",. While that happened, another group of only Genshin players, with more than 2k people on it, was casually talking about wuwa as a new game, no one complained, no one cared about it, there was no drama. Maybe its twitters/sns fault, thats full of teens and immature people, but I don't believe people that really play genshin would shit on wuwa. that group is advised to only +18 join and to keep things civil. everyone there already knew that wuwa and genshin, despite being of the same genre, are totally different. but thanks to that stupid fellows in the other group I won't play wuwa cause theres was no insight in lore and i play genshin because of the rich lore

[@WanderingPoro_217]

​@@sophiagizthen you definitely haven't seen enough sides of the two groups. Just as there are chill people in Genshin about WuWa, there are also chill people in WuWa about Genshin. And so are there Genshin stans that always talk shit about WuWa and how it's just a cheap clone. Instead of being a sheep that only listens to what other people say, why not actually try the game for yourself and see if you enjoy it? If you like it, then good for you. If you don't like it, then that's ok as well. Besides, comparing the lore of Genshin, a story that was built for 3 years, to WuWa's that's literally less than 3 months is just unfair. We're literally just at the intro/prologue of the story. Why not compare Genshin's prologue chapter to WuWa's instead of the entire lore and storyline?

You can literally check the comments on those video and how most of them talk about how WuWa is mediocre, how it's a genshin clone, and so on. You won't play WuWa because you yourself are stupid. Lore and story are BIG parts of the game (same for genshin), you can't ask people about it unless you want spoilers, and if you ask them for their opinion that's also stupid. I love it, others may find it boring. Same with genshin, I LOVED Inazuma, HATED Sumeru, but most of the community will say it's the other way around. So what exactly do you want to find out? You want to learn what the lore is and get spoilers? Google it yourself. You want to know whether it's good or not? Again, I absolute HATE Vanilla, others love it. Blaming a small vocal minority and not trying something because some people you can easily block and NEVER interact with were mean to you is beyond childish.

[@sxchneiler806]

As someone who has played Genshin since its release, both games are the same in terms that they are both open-world. I mean, a lot of people like the concept of free-roaming a setting of a game and exploring or gathering resources. But they are very different in gameplay to be honest. Genshin is basically for casuals, simply finding the right team and just pressing the skill and burst at the exact moment to trigger elemental reactions. Hell, I am an Alhaitham main so combat isn't an issue for me in Genshin. But in Wuthering Waves, dodging and parrying is important. You just don't mash the skills and hoping that your 10000$ wallet will carry you to defeat all the enemies in the game. You need patience and skill to defeat them.

[@hazamax2139]

Completely agree but I must also add, movement is important. If moving around the map sucks I'll do the least amount of it possible. Flying feels underwhelming in both but having no stamina requirement for running and climbing not being a 15 minute chore works WONDERS. tying movement's QOL to characters instead of a universal system feels really fucked up.

@@ln6148 This explains it perfectly. Because another game came out, and it treats its playerbase much, much, MUCH better. Giving away hundreads of wishes, 5 stars left and right, adding in quality of life changes day 1, fixing everything genshin players have been crying about for YEARS. And when people rightfully praise it, and call it better than genshin (which, objectively it is, if you don't count the subjectiveness of the story or the atmosphere), people get mad at all the time, resources and money they spent, feeling like they wasted it. Exactly like you said, and they are in denial about it, saying "WuWa is trash! It's just another genshin clone" because they can't cope any other way. They spent hundreads of dollars, hundreads of hours on this game, complained and complained and complained, and they can't comprehend a new game coming out with all the things they've ever wanted already there. But they're too invested in genshin to move over, they're immersed into the game, got attached to the characters and the world, and would rather stay and keep being treated like shit, consoling themselves by saying that WuWa sucks and nitpicking everything about it, rather than respect the game that respects them most.

@@robertmasengale9366 Right because genshin has amazing voice acting at all time. Go back and replay Mondstadt and its side quests. Like that NPC in a cutscene that says "I'm so scared, run away!" or something along those lines in the most bland, "just woke up" type of voice. At least WuWa pays its voice actors on time lol. Does wuwa also have bad moments? Yes, but I'd call it far from inconsistent and emotionless. Just because YOU personally don't enjoy it doesn't mean it's bad. It's not amazing, but it's better than Mondstadt for sure. Scar's cutscene and his story with the herd were better than "Oh cutie, let's go on a date!". It had more impact in the middle of the story than genshin did at first, where it's only at the end of Mondstadt that you get some actually emotionally scenes. Also, don't even get me started on Inazuma, they had a year of time to perfect their writing and they had SO much money from all those banners, yet the writing was trash, and the whole community agrees on this. Fontaine is a masterpiece, you can't compare it to WuWa, as it clearly wins. But you're comparing 4 years worth of money, effort and experience with a game that was barely released.

[@zionthezee]

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the characters or story in Genshin Impact (despite the designs being gorgeous). I prefer the gameplay being good and after a while, GI gets quite boring. With WW, I get eye-candy like in Genshin but legitimately fun, fair gameplay which keeps me invested.

[@jlester163]

What I'm pissed off about the story comparisons is that they just keep comparing it to fontaine like wtf thats unfair, Compare it to genshin early versions, mondstat was just an introduction, they introduced a bad guy(signora, scar), introduce factions, they head to chinese inspired place, has a dragon god(might be just chinese fantasy trope) and their dragon god disappeared making the head of the city take over....similar?

[@qwq1027]

tbh idc about how cliche a story is, but the way wuwa animates their story makes it so interesting. characters actually have various different animations that aren't the same reused ones that we've seen for the past 4 years + the dialogues are really funny sometimes, like in the quest "A true arena champion", there's an option to say "I'm flat broke".

[@ProkerKusaka]

But what the point of comparing with early genshin? It was made long time ago without any reference on how people react to the basic story on a big gacha game with open world. I mean we live in the present you know 😅

[@qwq1027]

@@ProkerKusaka because early game, there’s always a need to do world building and introduce core mechanics? Comparing fontaine to wuwa story makes no sense because fontaine is already halfway of the story. For example, we already know about fontaine being in a crisis, nahida spoilers abt furina, hydro sovereign reincarnation that we knew before fontaine, etc. all of these wouldn’t make sense if the previous quests hadn’t told us that. That’d be like telling you there’s a flying rock that is being worshipped by pillows, wouldn’t make sense right? Why is there a rock, why is it flying, how are the pillow worshipping it….Which is why wuwa and genshin introduction quests comparison makes more sense.

Forgot to mention hologram bosses. That's 3 combat endgames on day 1

[@MikuscarShiro]

I personally think the complexity of Genshin's combat is doing the maths and teambuilding (big number onscreen = good team) which is not complex at all, just a lot of planning. On the other hand, WuWa's combat lies on the player's skills to think at the moment. While teambuilding is also a part of the game, you can get more creative as long as you have the skills to back it up. Another thing is that each characters have their own niche in combat (e.g combo strings, forte skills, etc.) which creates variety of things to do in combat. Compared to genshin where you just spam skill→burst→quickswap→repeat until main dps on-field→spam attacks ... and keep on doing it until all enemies die. Then again, it's a matter of preference. Not everyone will enjoy getting one-shotted by bosses unless you can dodge/parry its attacks, and not everyone will enjoy one-shotting bosses after grinding for the perfect artifact for years.

[@putent9623]

I hate that genshin has a dodge button but bosses have like half their attqcks undodgeqble. Like the geovishap guy you farm for hu tao and xiao materials, his spin move cant be dodged or i framed vs in the event you can it. They shiuld just make every boss and thing iframable to reward skill

This video is 4 days old and is already outdated. The skip button has been buffed and now you can skip everything. On top of the 2 guaranteed 5 stars from the gatch we also got a 5 star selector that doesn't require any premium currency. You forgot one big endgame mode which is hologram. The gameplay loop in WuWa consists in also going out in the world to farm for echos. Also, i'm kinda confused on how you can't decide what combat is more difficult than the other when you basically said that in genshin you can just button mash and you win while in WuWa you gotta a whole lot going on(haven't even spoken about swap cancels but i doubt you even know what that is). Honestly pretty bad and outdated review Edit: you also completely avoided speaking about movement where in Genshin you can't sprint for more then 10 seconds while in WuWa you can run infinitely, wall run, graple, double jump but i guess is not important for an open world game

No it's not the same game. Saying it is the same game discredits all that wuwa has to offer. Sure they are both similar games. But they are not the same. The echo system is a nice twist to the normal artifact system. When exploring you can actually run up walls instead of climbing them and you can run with no stamina with only dashing decreasing your stamina and you are actually able to parkour unlike genshin. The combat are very different with outro and intro skills along with parry and dodge. Both games have pros and cons.

Personally it is my opinion that wuwa is better because this company has continually demonstrated that it gives a crap. I truly believe that many of the grievances that we experience with genshin will be brought up here again or have already been brought up. This is OFC because wuwa's design is so heavily inspired by genshin. But because the developers at Kuro actually listen, im hopeful that overtime wuwa will take on its own colors.

[@Phuc11611]

True. Idc how perfect was the game launch, as long as the devs listened to their community, it will be a good game. I rather take that than somewhat good luanch but the devs dont giv a f about their community(the devs of a certain company)

[@CerealCooler]

You're right they listened because the launch was awful to the majority of people and we don't know if they'll always be like this, but the fact that they listened says a lot. There's even a specific feedback button in the game so that players can write any bugs or complaints they are experiencing.

The evolution of games: Botw-Genshin impact-Wuthering waviesssss

[@redfoxakame]

I think you forgot to mention Holograms in Wuthering Waves and the "red" enemies overworld. Genshin has its elemental system but in the end, once you know your rotations, you're good to go. Just spam s. Just use hyperbloom that doesn't even make you think about rotations. Many will use Zhongli, so many just obliterate with Neuvillette who basically just stands there with his water hose. WuWa has more engaging, more complicated, and more difficult combat. I need to pay attention to the fight or else I just get molested. Even with the mobs. Dodging makes me look cool, parry is a bliss, and one wrong click can cost the match. It's always satisfying to win, and there are still so many things to clear... which I don't find myself clearing in a couple of months at least. Holograms most especially seem very fun, higher leveled bosses don't just have higher hp but different mechanics. Red enemies overworld can one-shot you. Yes, they can be cleared with level 1 characters as long as you dodge and parry 100% of the time. Which, you know, only the sweaty insane players can pull off. Combat complexity might be subjective to some, but we can't deny that at least you need skills in WuWa, where in Genshin you can just get away with a Zhongli.

[@PrimaryP90]

That depends on what characters they'll add in the future, though i believe in Kuro to not add an overly busted character that invalidates all mechanics. For some, The combat might not be harder than Genshin but it definitely feels more fluid and fun with so many options to counter the enemies attack.

Forgotten hall, Pure fiction. An another mode connected to. that next patch aswell. They also have another game modes that they keep that are replayable. All within a year at that. If Wuwa can just keep adding meaningful endgame they'll be fine. The combat being as indepth as it is already won me over as a traditional fighting game vet. The impact frame, cancel techs, option selects, chara switches an etc are cool to figure out. They need to add proper advanced training rooms though.

In my opinion. Wuwa is better in terms of technical ability required from the player but personally i care about exploration and story (combat is nice but isn't my main thing.) also when i tried wuwa and got to like lvl 30.

Disagreed honestly, if you look at Mondstadt and Liyue the zones are all the same texturally. You can look at a place and go “oh that’s Mondstadt” and look at another place and go “Oh that’s Liyue” but within the zones, there’s not much variation at all. WuWa has a good variety of location types at 1.0, that all look distinctively unique from one another. I much prefer it to every region being the same palette.

[@jaffrry5120]

​​@@grandmach4672 I'd disagree with this. If anything WuWa really lacks distinction and identity. Most of the locations are just the same in look and will have that black area somewhere. It's also not that interactive in terms of characters and environment interaction. The most we get from characters to move the environment is through guns and breaking rocks. Your resonators don't matter much. Your echoes can matter sometimes but it doesn't really affect the environment much. The only standouts for me are the Sea of Flames and the one with the Aero Monkey.

And Genshin's elemental system is fun in theory, but with how long it takes to swap characters for exploration, any longtime Genshin player would know that changing elements for stuff in the field is just annoying. WuWa got rid of the annoying "you need certain elements for certain things" and instead replaced it with better traversal options so that *every* character can be fun to explore with.
