What's funny about the Dori VA drama is that all of the Japanese VAs are Japanese, all of the Chinese VAs are Chinese, nobody gets upset about them, but once it comes to the English VAs they demand that the VA match the skin tone of the character they're playing or have darker.

As a Genshin player it's also sad to see.

Played some Elder Scrolls with my brother as well as Brightridge on mobile so a game that's basically an RPG with an anime-esque art style attracted me heavily. Still does but I play more nowadays metroidvania games and stuff like War Thunder.

I understand, some of the things in the video did leave some context out, and the scaramouche and bomb situation came from genshin haters, but it still doesn't mean the community is some squeaky clean utopia.

He has a history of animal abuse, except until the wanderer drama. He has been only sending those photos to furry groups and he has said "i'm going to keep abusing animals till every last one of furries are dead". He also do not play genshin impact at all, To make his fake girl profile look more real to other people he used a random anime character as a pfp which was of klee and people assumed she(she was he in reality) was a genshin player, he posted these kind of stuff just to trigger people just for fun. Just letting you know that it wasn't specific to genshin at all, people should stop this whole narrative that genshin players are animal killer which is disgusting without providing a solid evidence specially the Gacha CC who spread this misinformation without even looking into it, Every CC just looked at a reddit thread and went with it like all this information is true, but the scara drama about CN fans seeing him as a threat as a male was real, Visual venture creating a video knowing the information provided is not 100% accurate is just pathetic

Genshin is like other games, it just stands out to the other games cus it's more poular since it's available on multiple platforms and it's an anime-ish-like rpg explorer game. ( a mixture of basically anything popular nowadays, anime is popular, exploration is popular for example like probably Minecraft, and who doesn't like fighting?, with multiple mechanics on each character.) Like any other popular game, it has toxic fanbases, when undertale became popular, there were loads of toxic fanbases, when league of legends and cod became more popular there are people that talk sht alot, hell I recon there's also other games with alot of toxic fanbases. It just says alot about society, when a game becomes popular, it just basically means its playerbase is increasing. When normal players rise, the toxic fanbase also rises. Now onto the players swiping their credit cards for characters. I understand that these types of ppl are actually ruining their lives. But on one end it's not really the games fault, or the fanbase (i think, idk i haven't seen ppl encouraging ppl to spend money on the game in a straight face) These ppl are the people who have spending issues or gambling habbits, it's their fault for ruining their own lives using the money they have. There are countless other ways that can make you happy, using that money and they chose to do it in genshin. I understand it's popular and all, and that it's making them hooked into playing it and eventually spending money into the game. But don't other games also do that?, like lets say any other game with in game purchases, as simple as mobile games and as complicated and as popular as call of duty warzone. (I also get that there are other games that don't include these types of money grabbing ideas, but it's just straight business dude, become popular, abuse societal issues and make money). I think I still have some things to point out but I just wanna end it here on this note. The toxic genshin community are like any other game's toxic community, we just stand out cus we're more popular. So please for the love of God, not all of us are toxic, so don't oversimplify that all genshin players are just no-life, weak or snowflake, and fat losers. Cus that certainly doesn't make the rest of you (other video game players) any better, cus at the end of the day we're all wasting our lives somehow by simply complaining about societal issues on the "internet".

Nowadays they piggyback in Reddit and other forums with this same sentiment whereas I'm just enjoying Genshin quietly without being all that involved in their community.

The video isn't very accurate. I believe it's very misleading.

(I won't be able to explain it, but you can do your own search about it) The wanderer cat situation wasn't from a genshin player. the guy who did that stuff was actually known for posting those harmful animal videos in multiple fandoms' telegrams, especially furry ones, to trigger people just for his own sick entertainment. he wasn't a genshin player at all, it wasn't a situation specific to genshin. The hackers situation was actually proven that the so "victims" of the deleted items were actually the hackers themselves, trying to disguise themselves as victims to cause panic in the community. Also, they got banned and the hacks got patched. KFC event wasn't really overcrowded to the point of shutting down. The reason why the event was shut down was because of chinese laws, you need to warn beforehand that the establishment is going to have a big event bringing in big crowds.

Hearing all of these again in a row, you have to think just how "minor" the vocal community group are, because it can't be from the same group each time these incidents happen, it would have come from dozens or maybe hundreds not just from the Chinese fanbase but from the global/western groups too. You might even have to dump in the 3rd party groups who are jumping in on the hate-train to add more fuel to the fire who don't even play the game. Because if that percentage remains consistent, like how they did with the first anni or the ones that do death threats, the situation will only get worse in the long run.

Deja vu. I feel like we get one video like this every year or even half a year. And they grow in size every time.

[@epicadventureturtle1363]

My take: every community as big as genshins is bound to have a couple freaks, stalkers, murderers etc in it, thats just statistics. And if an average community has like 10% bad apples, genshin probably has 20% bad apples simply because the combination of game, anime and gambling is going to attract more weirdos on average. So I wouldnt read too much into this. Its just a video game.

[@dougjrr]

This, compare to the 1st year of the game, the toxicity has gone down a lot due to many players had already quit the game. Barely any noteworthy drama after the cluster fest of the 1st anniversary, last year sonic is fun but that fault is totally fall on sonic community. Now the community is pretty chill, but the stigma is still there. And for sure tectone is just trying to push the narrative that genshin players are a bunch of toxic, drama driven player to justify his hatred nowadays.

I like how this video shows how easy it is to feet people a narative as longa as it roughly aligns with their Ideas. Tectone thigs critically against genshin what is good. Yet he doesn't seem to nearly have the same amount of critical thinking when it comes to this video. The video clearly pushes the agenda of genshin having the most toxic fandom. It is not afraid of using missleading information and leeting out inportant context. Youst for exampel: Wanderer The guy was already misstrating animals befor he played genshin. If I remamber correctly he did even the same to other video games. Yet it is portrayed of it was the genshin comunity. There are many other exampel, If you are interested in at least hear the other side there is a good response video on KZbin.

there are two sides of the coin, the people that cause trouble for attention and those that cause trouble cos they hate whatever they hate. and the way to deal with either is vastly different, for example the people that cuase trouble for attention should be ignored so they stop getting what they want and therefore lose interest. but the people that cause trouble cos they just hate the game(or their life) need to be spoken out against but its hard to differentiate them so realistically its just a lose lose situation for genshin

[@Splitzblue]

There's one thing that I noticed when it comes to Genshin that constantly appears and that's treatment; treatment of the game by the community, treatment of the game by content creators, treatment of the game by Hoyoverse, and treatment of the game outside the realms of Genshin Impact (i.e those unrelated with any of the previous groups). Genshin Impact by itself is alright, especially in this day and age with Fontaine where things have been improving albeit in increments. There's a reason why I say the game itself if fun and that I have enjoyed it regardless of its current cons AS A GAME. However, after hearing how people feel about the game in a much more bigger circle rather than just the game itself, I've started referring to this game as Hoyoverse's "League of Legends" or the new League of Legends or a League of Legends-wannabe (in terms of stuff unrelated to the game itself). Both are games that are highly criticized for their communities and just some of the stuff that happens around it. Both are also made by Chinese companies...funnily enough (what is it with Chinese video game companies and them having games that garner toxicity?). Now I personally don't really dabble with the community apart from stuff relating to leaks, fanart, builds/guides, theories, and some help here and there. Other than that, I just focus on the game itself. But I have heard about the game's dark past and despite what we're getting now, I do think that the game still needs to step up more, especially now that we have Honkai Star Rail, and the fanbase needs to be taken care of, both globally and in China where, as we've seen in the video, the players are lot more vicious. And on the topic of HSR, I find it sad that that game is getting more love than Genshin and hell even Zenless Zone Zero. Not to say it's bad game or anything (I've played it and I highly recommend it), but even tho the Fontaine story is over, that doesn't mean you should throw Genshin back into the bin just like that. And yet, compared to what we got from the Version 4.3 Special Program, it will not compare what we got from Honkai Star Rail's Version 1.6 Special Program (I still can't get over the free Dr. Ratio). And I do feel like because of that, there's something generally wrong with Hoyoverse in regards to Genshin. But at the same time, there's also something wrong with the community. I don't know if this is because of China (or it's just an Asian thing) itself or if the rise of the internet has caused certain groups to develop ulterior motives, but I don't like it. Will me learning about this stuff make me drop the game? Never. I enjoy playing this game and I will continue playing this game. But god damn do I wish everyone both inside and outside the community were a lot more friendlier and civil and a lot less weird or silent. That and I wish I wasn't constantly made fun of for both playing the game and liking it. Some species we are...

[@Oclur]

The bad management Genshin is getting would be called out by the whole community if said community was even a little bit serious. It's a matter of principle: it's just unfair towards a lot of people.

[@Theonlyoneclyde]

That’s true. While there are a few Genshin CCs that are actually cool and even like Tectone (Doro44 is a good example cause he spoke positively about him in livestreams on Twitch), so many other Genshin CCs are shills and will never speak out against the unhinged side of the community and the bad business practices of Hoyoverse in the same manner, if they ever do, their words feel very scripted.
