meta in gachas is a very complicated topic that people are always talking about , some games apply it in a good way , and some other are still trying to innovate a new way of handeling it.

My problem with meta in gacha games is that there is literally no alternative, its shamelessly shoved down your throat and any alternative is not only barely featured in any capacity, its rarely future proof or even retrofitted to allow older characters to be viable again.

I agree with the general sentiment. In Genshin, however, there are occasions when an old character is made good/viable again: (1) Diluc got Furina and Xianyun, (2) Xiao got Faruzan, Furina and Xianyun, (3) Ayato got Nahida, Yelan and Kuki Shinobu, and (4) Raiden got Chevreuse (she's still great in hyperbloom and national). Now... all of the above have been powercrept but can still clear content, just not for top marks/rewards. Stioorg basically said exactly that... if you didn't get the supports they aren't as viable as yesteryear. Where I really agree is that I used to be able to get more stars in the Abyss than now (used to be 31-32) and now it's 26-27 and dropping because... I don't have a lot of Fontaine characters. I lost all my 50/50s pulling for Neuvillette, Navia, and Furina. So I only have Furina of the bunch. Fontaine broke me - and now I don't care about META because outside the Abyss and IT, META is somewhat irrelevant. Almost any character can clear any content, some will struggle more than others.

I usually take the middle ground approach in regards to meta; I pick the characters I actually like and then build a competent team around them. The characters I like might not necessarily be meta, but I invest enough in meta supports so that I don't feel miserable playing the game with them. I mean, imagine playing a comp with four DPSes just because they're your favorites. 😅

Well i mostly agree, i would still say for the general context - bias plays a lot in this as well. Cause most people could play the big 5-6 gacha games and still feel the powercreep felt and just say "oh no X character just got literally powercrept by the new units directly after the patch!!!" Even though it's still in it's power budget balancing..

Oh yeah WuWa meta is pretty clear good like in PGR. Even the Changli slander is just baseless... Claims... 1) Changli has lower support than Yinlin Reality = Because instead of off field damage? She instantly burst damage within a short fame. 2) Yinlin has weaker skill than Encore Reality = They didn't even consider that Changli had better passive than Encore 3) Changli can't support Encore Reality = That applies even with another tier 0 Support Yinlin. Because Encore doesn't have an ULT. Honestly the meta in WuWa is less of being effective. Its more like how you like to play. Both Yinlin and Changli shares same result. Just different kind of damage. If you like Off field damage? Go with Yinlin. If you like quick time burst? Go with Changli. In WuWa the meta is more subjective... Unless you talking about the tiger dude because he sucks even jf he's cool... I'm sorry...

She will become more stronger when there's a fusion dps which can utilise her kit fully which makes her Future proof. Whereas jinhsi has Verina, Yuanwu, ZZ and Yinlin.

You and gacha community have a wrong perception of what meta is. Meta = most effective tactics available. It isn't about most used characters or about strongest characters to bruteforce encounter with pure strengtth. It is about using proper characters which would be most effective against these specific encounters/enemy types/weaknesses. In Genshin, Venti is considered to be fallen off, but he is meta in any encounter with lightweight mobs. Neuvillette, which is considered the strongest dps, isn't meta against Thunder Manifestation/Pearl Seahorse. What you are talking about is a general powerlevel of characters, powercreep, and tactics gacha devs using to promote ther characters, not meta.

The only case when meta don't change is PGR case where they don't make duplicate of Amplifier class... This is both good and bad. Good 1) It makes it easier to build a team. Just any dps and one support. 2) It makes it easy to save the roll Now the bad side... 1) If you missed them? Yeah good luck building that element team! You could but it will be so inferior using healer. Like they are not meant to support to begin with... 2) It also means people can spend less. They can just save and plan their roll. Honestly the only case when meta don't change is the game don't ever change that. But... 1) Genshin Impact => The meta not only adding more damage but they also adding more HP... Like why are they INCREASING everything? 2) Honkai Starrail => They don't change the damage and HP much. Instead they change the weakness of the enemy which makes certain team bad in the meta rotation instead. At time DoT is good and than it sucks... That's about it. Okd character are nit that far worse like lower than A tier. Except Yangqing... He still trash... 3) FGO => Funny enough with over 300 servants? Only less than 10 support actually matters... So regardless of DPS meta? It doesn't matter! Honestly i doubt Gunshin Impact will ever fix the meta problem. They are HORRIBLE at that. They didn't fux the meta at all... They actively making it worse. I wouldn't even mind if they instead of HP scale and choose to do damage rotation instead like HSR? It would have been better!

Still watching the video but gonna leave a opinion here and idk if it was mentioned but since you have a ba sponsor I'm sure you might have mentioned it. Blue archive actually does something i find much better than in games like genshin and star rail that while all characters are ususable in these games in blue archive the meta there has more wiggle room with old units still being really good, example of this are mutsuki and momoi who are used alot despite having better units simply because of the amount of variety of the content. Hsr kinda did this with pure fiction and (the new mode that was supposed to be single target did not do anything just a redesigned abyss imo) but in ba you have the 4 damage types where you need units in and then there is also the difference between aoe and single target example of this would be hasumi(track) and chise both of then use mystic(blue) dmg but both of them have their uses. There is also armor types which again keeps old units not only usuable but still good. Another example would be the raids have totally different unit needs that multiple meta exist. Good example would be how teams need a repositioner in shurokuro(forgot the name) and a healer for Hieronymus. Units also crazy easy to get already have majority units i want as f2p and with how many times you can get off banner units. Fes banner is also goated with the double drop rate

Does meta matter in Genshin when you can clear it with any good team you already have? If you have enough character pool in Genshin, you don't need to worry about meta, you'll only worry about if you can get the new character because the character is hot/cute/handsome/funny/etc. HSR right now is still in the stage where they can keep introducing new mechanics and good end game. In Genshin, you only worry if your characters can either Crit or can do elemental reaction. But if you really want my option, Waifu/Husbando > meta.

ToF is powercreep fiesta, and whale territory. Getting a character to max rank and dupes, only to get powecrept two patches after. In a bubble, powercreep is unavoidable, but it's how they handle their gamepaly systems that matters on the long run, to make it bearable. Some gachas do the "insert a new power" to old characters like PGR (leap system changing), FEH (refines and remix). Meanwhile others upgrade/add new systems to incentivize variety, like HSR's Pure Fiction or superbreak (it indirectly buffed units like Break Serval/Himeko/so many others). As someone who doesn't play for Meta, but chase whom i like/vibe with, as long as the old units can keep up with content, it's fine. I still run units like Serval, Sushang and Hook, despite having Acheron, Boothill and Firefly. But yeah, Ruan Mei was a mistake, specially because new units WANT her as well.

@@giangtrinhtruong7952 i already said my take on powercreep on the second paragraph. It's not being biased, just personal preference, because ToF has some huge glaring issues. HSR is a casual PvE gacha, carried by a great story and constant generous rewards. It has powercreep, yes, but it doesn't get in the way of the game systems nor the story. And you can clear end-game content and almost pull on every banner by playing regurlarly. The meme of "every patch is birthday patch because of the 10x gold tickets" is true. ToF wears a skin of a MMORPG (almost an mmo-lite), but with gacha elements. The story is just a placeholder and barely enjoyable, you had to play religiously to get the minimum rewards of the events, bunny hop into countless dead channel zones just to boss grind, amongst other things. Powercreep didn't kil ToF but it was a huge factor, there are so so many other problemas that the devs themselves are going the "rebuilding the game". Since the beginning of the year, ToF is barely keeping less than 1k average players monthly, and declining. And before getting flack for this comment, i played ToF for more than an a year daily since release, had a max awakened Frigg with Balmung and her matrix set, and many other invested limited ssr simulacrum.

Managing powercreep in a gacha is kinda like managing inflation in an economy-inflation in the power economy is going to happen, so you need to keep it low and stable. Aside from that, it can be different strokes for different folks as to which “economic policy” you prefer, as you say. I personally like Genshin’s slow-and-steady niche-by-niche horizontal expansion approach to meta but there’s no doubt that it’s not satisfying to many players. Using the economic example, imagine character power as a currency, and the game’s combat requirements/endgame content as goods and services with a price. Genshin keeping stuff fairly easy and accessible is kind of a brute-force solution similar to setting a price cap on goods and services, but people will naturally crave more of those goods and services to “spend” their currency on-hence the complaints relating to provision of endgame content. By comparison, other games may be willing to provide more of those goods-or even higher-tier goods for the wealthier in terms of power. But that leads to a more ruthless and cut-throat economy. And as you mention, “equalising” the playing field through direct nerfs is a no-go, even if it patches legitimate glitches-just look at the Neuvillette situation recently. Nobody likes a tax rise! One side note I might mention is that not all games are unwilling to offer “subsidies” to characters who have fallen behind in the form of direct buffs. I played FEH for several years and they were pretty open to that. However, it’s important to note that direct buffs can themselves be unreliable as to HOW effective they are, and are themselves vulnerable to the powercreep problem.

That's a big issue with Hoyo. Powercreeping to no end making all your invested time and energy into previous characters redundant. Part of the reason why I won't spend money on their products anymore. I mean, we can already see the same thing happening with ZZZ. Just make new characters with interesting kits, balance their powerbudget around whatever they are supposed to do, think outside of the box, make them harmonize with underused characters. Just this lazy way of "Let's increase their damage by roughly 10% and call it a day." is extremely tiresome. Will you gain less profit/money? From a short-term perspective? Yeah, most likely. But it's not like you've barely writing black-numbers. You can absolutely afford to pedal it down in exchange for a more balanced and fun environment. But companies will be companies I guess.
@jxwong_3982
@jxwong_3982 2 ай бұрын
I don’t play ZZZ but from what I’ve experienced Genshin doesn’t really have that problem as much by virtue of expanding niche by niche rather than vertically by piling characters’ power on top of past characters continuously. For a game that does the latter, you can look at FEH, which I played for several years. The lack of focus on combat endgame and the general ease of the game, and the new Imaginarium Theatre mode (though problematic and very disruptive on its own) focusing on building a range of characters rather than making individual characters as hyperoptimised as possible, all seem designed to evade the effects of powercreep as much as possible. Of course powercreep is there, but “powercreep pressure” on the player is lowered. Now HSR I’ve certainly seen more complaints from my fellow players about. It’s a more limited gameplay form where more comes down to the mechanics, calculations and statistics, and character skills are fewer and more cut-and-dry (including because the game hardly ever explores further diversifications to the mechanics of combat with gimmicks like other turn-based games have). So there may be a greater risk of powercreep there, alongside it being a newer game-time will tell whether the devs are able to conservatively and sensibly limit the reach of powercreep or allow it to stack out of control.

powercreep doesn't exist in gacha games. it only exists in moba or multiplayer pvp games. In gacha games you can spend money to get characters in those games if a new hero is powercreeped their is nothing you can do about it. The difficulty of gacha games is dictated by how build your characters are. You shouldn't pull for meta. pull for what you like and even in moba people use characters they like and they are able to steam roll everyone even meta characters because they are so good with those heroes.

Hardly disagree. So many gachas have characters that cannot be used anymore its rare for gachas to not have powercreep characters . And mobas dont really have powercreep they can re balance and rework characters at anytime

@@stioorg powercreep doesn't exist for a game where you can existentially buy your way towards a c6 op character. all gacha games are easy anyways so powercreep doesn't even matter for difficult content. if your characters are built you can clear any content doesn't matter it is meta. characters in moba get rebalanced after powercreep but doesn't mean it didn't already do its damage. The only saving grace is you can ban characters but doesn't mean you still don't have a edge even after a nerf because moba are notorious for having powercreep and unbalanced characters. gacha are single players games so powercreep doesn't matter plain and simple. Your fighting against simple npcs

​@@bobdaniels3692 Why are u talking like f2p players don't exist? We can't get all characters we want let alone getting copies for one And no, I've been playing hsr for a long time and I have a really good account but recently I can't fully clear endgames because of the new meta. So powercreep does exist

​@@bobdaniels3692 no one mentionned whales in this video , meta doesn't matter in that regards , we are talking about free 2 plays that's why i talk about 1 dupes or 0 dupes in the video, again you probably don't play many gacha games but a lot of gachas make some characters have no ability to clear content and there is no powercreep in mobas AGAIN , maybe you don't know what powercreep is , but balance patches in mobas happen all the time and some get weaker some get powerful , that doesn't have to do with powercreep
