True. My main team is still Spectro Rover, Baizhi and Encore.

I envy you guys. I honestly wanna switch to Wuwa because they don't treat their MC like shyt. But too bad for me I'm stuck with genshin because Wuwa graphics turned out to be more demanding and my current device is not up for the task. This is a separate matter but it honestly still baffles me how I can play Skyrim, DS2, and AC Origins in stable 60-75 fps while these Anime style games can't give me that. Genshin gives me 45-60 depending on in-game location and Wuwa gives me 20ish.

Wuwa's Characters designs are on point. from Body proportion, Accessories (not overly crowded), Unique themes (they're not scared to pull a dragon in Basic Attacks), Emotions and fluid Movements like camellya. you can literally see the maturity of the designers. anyways there are some people that still prefer Genshin because at the end of the day "Design" is always Subjective.

[@Rpground]

What I like about WuWa's designs is that these characters don't look like they were born for their element or even gimmick. In Genshin you have characters who, supposedly, lived normal lives before getting their vision or even becoming the Archon...yet these characters are designed as if they were destined to have these roles/visions at birth. Furina/Mavuika being the biggest offenders. We even saw a picture of Mavuika as a child and you're telling me that she had all these unique "archon" features before getting a vision OR becoming an archon? Furina just HAPPENED to be born with eyes the colors of the alignment system in Fontaine? Seriously? It's like these designers create these designs as if they have always been like this for their entire lives...which is impossible. Even when a character would look like this in WuWa it can at the very least be explained away by them becoming a resonator. Those frequencies are bound to change something about a person...just look at Youhu's frostbitten hands.Those aren't just some gloves.

[@angelsoflolz]

@@Rpground To be fair, Furina wasn't born. She was created by Focalors to act.

[@Rpground]

@@angelsoflolz So she kinda gets a pass...but it's still annoying it happens at all, though. Could you be any less subtle about it? At least other characters like Mualani and her "special eyes" don't get a pass at all. Fish shaped pupils AND also happens to magically get a hydro vision when she grew up? Not to mention also being a part of the water tribe that lives near water? I mean, what are the chances of that happening?

6:08 You forgot the most important one. The trauma inducing nightmarish weekly boss materials

[@Miffsta]

That's one of the most important factors that show how Kuro "cares" about its player base more than Hoyo does its own. They still limit the chances to challenge the weekly bosses for drops, but they give you a (more than) decent amount of materials to justify that weekly limit, all while keeping the boss material requirement still at one unit per skill level up to the maximum. I'm pretty sure that's not their intention, but Kuro shows how they value my time by doing this. In fact, the very quick enemy/material respawn rate is also similar to this. And that small detail in itself is one of the biggest reasons why I have zero hesitations putting money (and time) on Wuthering Waves.

[@notreallymyfault]

back when I used to find tiny glimpses of Natlan revealed in side story arcs, I always thought that place to be gritty and dark, full of battles and war-torn areas. Then they teased the first Natlan characters, who were furry, furry kids and more kids. totally threw me off, rappers, singers, skateboards, dancers and beach surfers (FFS) and the archon is now a biker with technopunk glasses.

[@stormer2349]

One of the first glimpses of Natlan we got was from the bath-houses in Inazuma 😂 So many people thought "Nation of War" and imagined a dark, gritty story with lots of death, when there's plenty of evidence in the game that points both ways. Plus, we did kinda get the actual war in Act 4, and it set up some awesome stuff. I normally prefer man v man wars, but this was honestly p good. Surviving Lucem type vibes.

[@anapple6912]

me too, i thought it was a dark place with celebrations being highly valued because you wouldn't know when you are going to die, i thought every foreigner who comes to natlan is challenged to a life-or-death tournament and thought the only way you could be a king/archon is by fighting archon for the gnosis basically kind of like a king of the hill typa game. man was i disappointed seeing as its just a copy paste of sumeru with some liyue colors.

[@generaltoszur1036]

Remember when natlan was set up to be a war torn barren wasteland ? I dont remember as well its as if it was never meant to be and was instead set up as a region where dragons and humans coexist , how natlan is a perfect vacation spot and how people there really like graffitti and Extreme sports .

The Archon Quest there was trash. From that, Natlan was pretty much thought to be a nation of WAR, where survival was tough and necessary. Also, that "war" in the 5.3 update was nothing groundbreaking or impressive whatsoever. It's just disappointing and completely out of place with the Natlan characters there.

[@TyoTyoTyo]

I love that in WuWa, you can pre-farm echoes and most of the materials for upcoming characters. There are no new dungeons every few patches with new books to farm. The only thing you currently can't pre-farm are new area collectables (which you can buy from merchants and get in events or just gather) and new area boss mats/echoes (new boss echoes are still easy to farm too because it's free and always the same set and the same cost/piece). I imagine that in Rinascita, there will be new Echo sets. However, since they are located in the overworld (not in a dungeon), you'll be able to farm them before the 2.1+ characters are released.

[@marucic8967]

Yes, there will most definitely be new echoes, and I heard there's going to be a new set that focuses on skill dmg

[@wanderingwatcher3981]

Farming everything for a character takes around 2 patch cycles (free-to-play). It's so slow that I'm not even excited over new characters as all I'll get is another character waiting to get built. I've 4 characters at lv 90 still missing artifacts, that grind alone is going to take at least until feburary. I recently used 1k tuners would seeing a single crit/crtDMG piece despite using the most efficient method possible (destroying upwards of 70 echoes). It's hard to get excited over new characters when it takes so much grinding. Imagine how bad this is going to be in 2 years time when we've no incentive because we already have 3+ good teams. Better then genshin, sure, good, I don't think so. We are totally dependent on resource hand-outs to make meaningful progress.

[@XenoWars]

@@wanderingwatcher3981 You're just not farming correctly then. It takes three weeks in both Genshin and WuWa, aka half a patch cycle. This is from my own experience building many characters in both games and also from the numbers with no stamina refills. Don't know what you're doing that makes it take three months. You can even have ok artifacts in about a week or two. It's just min/maxing that takes ages. And WuWa's echo system is so much easier too to get great builds. The only thing that could push one to three months is the weekly material grind in Genshin.

[@Nightsnow_]

Genshin actually gates character uniqueness behind constellations, and a great example is kazuha, he should have 2 charges on his skill by default. Compare that to changli which she has only pure buffs from her sequences. Imagine if changli's s1 or s2 gave her the 2 skill charges

[@Cutepie2244]

True like Xiao constellation 1 being 3 dashes, I got his constellation then just stopped playing all together, Honestly when I read my favorite character's constellation and see all the gatekeeping and less fun I can do I generally stopped seeing a point in trying to play the game, (when shorekeeper rerun comes imma buy her 2 wavebands)

[@emmanonn]

Can confirm the Danjin part She's so good that some people in the community consider her a hidden 5 star (6 star, even, but I think that's a huge exaggeration already) And the reason she can solo Hologram bosses is simply because if you put her in a team, you actually *lose* out on DPS by swapping out to buff with intros and outros The trade off, of course, is that she's a berserker type of character, so she trades her actual HP to deal damage This means nearly every fight as Danjin is a no-hit challenge, so I definitely do not recommend her for open world exploration unless you have ultra instinct on 24/7

1 of the things i like about wuwa’s character design is about how subtle they can be like the characters are immediately recognizable for sure but the clothing they wear dnt look all that different from the npcs either like jiyan without his long green ponytail wouldnt look too out of place among the rest of the midnight rangers or chixia without her red hair too some character will always be standouts like camellya for example and the shorekeeper but a lot of the character has outfits that with a few tweaks would blend right in with the npcs so it really looks like theyre a part of the world genshin’s character designs do have thier charm but they also stand out a bit too much, like throw sayu into naruto’s ninja setting and she wouldnt look out of place as a leaf shinobi ignoring the difference in art style or arle into jjk, she very much fits right in genshin’s over the top design gives them their identifiable flare but at the same time stick out like a sore thumb too like can you imagine some random male npc in mondstadt wearing even something like diluc, kaeya, jean or even amber’s outfits and not go unnoticed?

[@MagisterialVoyager]

Great observation! And truly stand out characters look in place too, such as how Jinhsi is very strikingly all white, since she’s the literal Magistrate of Jinzhou.

[@Elem156]

One thing about the character designs in wuwa is that npc are much more expressive and various design depend on regions. Which make the game more interactive than GI just copy paste stock images. Also wuwa is basically just Arknights, pure skill sissues.

[@Sevchaenkov]

I don't even play Genshin Impact, but I quit Honkai Star Rail for Wuthering Waves for similar reasons from this video and the first one. Guaranteed weapon banner; no 75/25 bs. There's also a selectable standard weapon banner that is permanent and you can switch between which weapon you want anytime you wish. Also; free 5 star standard weapon when you reach account level 45. HSR does have free 5 star weapons from Simulated Universe, but they might not be enough in the future endgame. You don't need to level sub-stats, instead they have varying rolls (12 to 20 CDMG). I'm aware HSR is adding a system to level up the substats you want, but that still isn't enough to bring me back. I like WuWa's system better because if I get a double crit stat echo, then that's good enough for me since I don't have to worry about levels going into the wrong substats. HSR's also has varying rolls if you start with 3 substats or 2 substats; 3 substats having a better chance of bigger stat rolls but also more chance of leveling the wrong substat. With WuWA, whatever you roll is what you get, no need to worry about leveling the crit stats up. If you want better stat rolls then you better get lucky, but most of the time it's good enough for me. HSR endgame MoC "difficulty" each patch is literally just adding more hp to enemies, which makes older characters less viable for max star clears. I liked Blade, but then Jingliu phased him out in a couple months, and now Jingliu will eventually be phased out as well. The only way to keep the older characters viable would be to pull on future support characters or re-run banners but even then, 2 of their 6 copies is literally extra levels on skills. I guess super break can help the older characters in a way, but it's not really how they were originally intended to be used which disappoints me. In WuWa, you can pretty much use any character as long as they're built properly. There's plenty of videos of F2P max star clears. The only thing I don't like personally in WuWa is overworld farming for leveling materials (cores/rings), I know you can get them from simulation challenges and events but it's not sustainable enough relying on that so you have to do some overworld farming. I probably wouldn't have to farm too much if I only focused on a few characters, but I really want to use and build all of them (except for Lingyang & Encore) since each character's combat is unique and satisfying. Another annoying tid bit is enemies being immune to same element dmg, for some elements like aero can still dmg matching element mobs but other than that like they need to change it to reduced dmg rather than straight up no dmg. Last but not least, I have not nearly spent as much money on WuWa than I have on HSR. Partly due to how much freebies Kuro gave us, but in combination with a meta free endgame (for now), guaranteed weapon banner, and technically having to pull less for pity on limited character banners (WuWa; 80/160 vs HSR; 90/180).

[@Smilehp7]

Thanks for your input. I've been playing HSR and WuWa since their launch. For the last month, I have been struggling with motivation to play HSR because as a F2P, I feel so weak if I don't have the strong characters from the current path that makes all content easier. I saved at the beginning for Kafka because I liked her design a lot and then I focused mainly on DOT team. Then I had to save and was able to start a Break Team. That means I wasn't able to get Follow-Up Attack and Hypercarry.. The only break dps i have is Boothill. Failed to pull Rappa and Firefly, no Feixiao aswell so yea.. I'm pretty much useless at PF, last level or two of MoC and AS. Your comment made me realize how bad my account was if I don't follow in the best units, DoT never got love so yea..

6 months ago I would have said your crazy.... But here we are. I love Genshin too.

[@raulsalazar05]

www.youtube.com/@FrostyGachaLife/videos After watching all these videos, I can say x2 WuWa surpassed Genshin in many ways, the only thing Genshin does better for now , its COOP, but it's a feature Kuro is working on and going to polish soon. I have played Genshin for 3 years, I have completed all content till 5.1, all quests (world quets, story quests, hangouts), all lore, all activities, not a single chest left, no a single quest left. I have played attention to all details, animations, dialogs, and I can say being realistic and unbiased, Wuwa after 1.1 surpassed Genshin in dialogs and animations, facial expressions. I don't talk about combat because Genshin is not combat game, Wuwa powercreeps all character kits including the new 5.2. The only one might have a chance is Mavuika, but yet the facial features, weapon, idle and all animations will lack quality or that lively feature.

[@phongphamthanh5911]

The last part is double edge sword though. Genshin having strong reaction carry your team mean you can use your favorite on-field character even if they are not great. Meanwhile for wuwa, once the powercrept happen, it almost impossible to make the old one work, or at least require huge effort

[@Lynn.-_-.]

That's true. The future seems bleak if pgr is anything to go by. But I suppose they can buff them with leaps and try to keep them relevant.

[@kaizu8326]

in pgr (kuro's other game) they have a LEAP system where the character gets buffed and gains new skills. some times, they'll just buff a character randomly by revamping their kit. they will probably do the same for wuwa (tho i doubt it since the characters are already at such a high quality. i mean how can you revamp jinshi?). also, it's possible that characters gain their Second Awakening, or mayve even Overclocking as a gameplay feature. imagine nerfing your hp and defense for more damage and such

[@semangcats]

As a busy F2P player, In wuwa, I can build a good team (Jiyan, mortefi, shorekeeper) fully since it's that easy to farm and build them. While in genshin, it took me a whole 2 years to make a good team (tighnari, nahida, fischl, yao yao) and nahida isn't even finished yet, AND it is NOT even his best team yet.

I play genshin from Day 1, recently i saw in reels about camellya and was fascinated with her gameplay and started playing wuwa(i got her s2r1 within a week of playing), I will give you my honest feedback, wuwa characters are far better than genshin, gameplay depth mechanics are far more interesting than genshin, echo farming is so easy compared to genshin shit artefact system, the only thing i didnt like about wuwa is its fps, it has 120fps support but its full of stutters and framedrops to mid 40-50fps, of this many years of playing genshin on my PC i never faced such a terrible experience, my system is powerful enough to run wuwa or even many AAA titles with ease 100fps+ i7-12700H + 4050, this is the main reason of unreal engine being unreal engine, they should optimize it. apart from this issue i have no complaints on wuwa, the only issue is fps which is significant part of enjoying game.

[@skyhart9926]

The unreal engine lag is also my only complaint in WuWa. Other than that, WuWa is so much better than Genshin in all aspects.

[@Smilehp7]

Unfortunately since launch, some hardware had difficulties with optimization in the game. They have been improving a lot of system since then so here's to hope yours get better aswell. Have you check your windows Game Mode status? I recently turned it on to experiment and actually made my game a little less laggy in case it helps

[@Carnaj90]

I hate that they did the crown BS in ZZZ too. They "kinda" did it in HSR but tracks of destiny as actually REALLY abundant in the game so it isn't a problem and you can have multiple characters maxed on all of there skills even on a true F2P account. The only thing I don't like is that WuWa did that with weekly boss materials. It's not TOO bad, but it's still annoying that you can only get a characters fortes to level 7, then you need to use a boss material for levels 8 to 10. There are so many characters that I want to build to try out but I'm completely time-gated due to not having enough weekly boss mats. This will actually get worse once 2.0 comes out because we will have to farm for at least 2 weeks of boss mats to max 1 character, and only after the patch is released, so pre-farming will be impossible aside from the weapon materials.

[@yanuarmustika5816]

No, skill tree don't need weekly boss mats up to lv 6. This is why my healer all stuck at lv 6 skill.

[@XenoWars]

The weekly mats arent bad. You get 9 per week and only need 26, and you need to get the materials for skills, ascension, and weapon anyway which takes three weeks as it is. 3 weeks to completely max a character is actually great. Means you can do 2 per patch with some time left over.

[@violet9530]

Most people recommend building character up to lvl 8, not lvl 10(I did this with every single character I built)

[@XenoWars]

@@violet9530 They dont really say that these days, especially for charactrrs doing EM builds

[@monchicruz8278]

I mean yea I get what you are saying and make sure to provide it on feedback but really most characters just want forte, liberation, skill some not even all 3 but forte/liberation This means that basic attack and intro can be left at level one or 6 As for other stuff status stat bonuses aren’t going to make/break your character and inherent skills range from important to not a huge deal Supports range from being a small part of team damage to some of them being medium so if they are small you can stop at 6 or sometimes even not level them at all like Sanhua/Yuanwu for example and healers can be left at 6 you shouldn’t be taking too much damage and where damage really matters well it ain’t going to matter how high you raise the character since holograms will 1-2 hit you for your entire health

[@MrMartindad]

The first time I spent money on Wuwa was out of pure intention to support Kuro. Never felt forced, and never felt cucked out of a banner because I ran out of Asterites... The game has been very good to me since release, I have at least 1 copy of all limited 5* characters released so far, 5 Limited 5 star weapons, 2 of the standard 5* weapons and 3 of the standard 5* characters. All this for $15.00 (3 months of Lunite Sub)

[@Mr.MoriartyXIII]

The thing is not we hate genshin or want it to EOS the only thing we asked for is the game to be better but the devs come out an literally spit in our faces that why WuWa for me now is way 100x better then genshin cause in just 6 month kuro did what hoyo won't in this entire 4 years which is caring about the game more then money even HSR a turn based game that Easley can be developed and it didn't cost them a lot plus it's revenue is high still there endgame is just a lie and the fact that HSR players say thet they play it mainly for story is enough evidence

[@GeshuLin_WW]

2.0 is a literal game changer from what I'm hearing. Can't wait for part 3!!! 😂

[@w.7474]

I'm commenting this in excitement. I quit Genshin in 2022 just when I was about to be AR 59 and since that, I refused to play any genshin-like or gacha games or whatever you call it. But I decided to play Wuthering Waves and it is exciting. When I first accidentally dodged in this game, I wow'ed because it even comes in slow motion that makes the pacing of the fight goes up and down rather than the flat pacing in Genshin. Characters designs are also better and not ‘bottlenecked’ for being too cool. The new 5 stars, Camellya, is one of the coolest characters I've seen. Her animations are so cool and the designers definitely cooked with this one without someone telling them “Nah, that's too cool. Uncool it”. Dying Light had taught me one thing. Open world game isn't defined by how big the map is, but how explorable it is. GTA V's map is bigger than Dying Light's map but DL's map always feel bigger to me because you can go pretty much anywhere. The same with WuWa, your characters can just climb over petty obstacles that a Genshin character would just give up on trying. I am not an anime fans and I am not a gacha fans and some part of me still hates gacha but WuWa developers know how to give Genshin a competition.

That right there is an endgame content done well with it being both fun & difficult. However, I wud like to mention that both games have 1-2 5* char releases per patch. WuWa - 1.0 - 2, 1.1 - 2, 1.2 - 2, 1.3 - 1, 1.4 - 1 GI - 5.0 - 2, 5.1 - 1, 5.2 - 1 (hadn't played GI before that)

But the point I left Genshin was because they didn't pay attention to QoL in the game properly, imagine how tiring it was when I farmed EoS artifacts for 3 months for just one character, while in Wuwa I only needed 2 weeks to get a good moonlight echos that could be paired with 2 different characters, etc....

What does NES Gaemer have to do with a warrior culture? What does a DJ have to do with a warrior culture? What does a biker babe, surfer bro or western cowfolk have to do with a warrior culture, dammit!?

@@SolaceSaga But these 2 games that you compare, are not even in same bracket based on statistics? So is Wuthering waves "trully better" than Genshin? It started with 30 milion players (registered at launch) if not more. Game far better than Genshin, as your videos stating (btw you have the most views by a large margin on videos in wich you mention Genshin, weird). It lost more than half of these players. I mean, player retention is a thing. Why is there is no retention if the games is truly better? (Genshin playerbase still 60-65 mil players, even after wuwa "killed genshin" btw) So how about the downtrend that Wuthering waves went into? How about revenue going, obvs, as interest going down and the trends going down, revenue went HARD down aswell, if this is BY FAR better than Genshin? So not a solid statistic to backup your points. "Altough thats a lost cause for Genshin at this point". Yeah, except the fact thats not how it works. If the game, was indeed, better than Genshin, statistics, would purely show this, they would not show going down and down and down. Lets not talk about views and google trends where is a slaughter. At least you get views from these videos cause you mention Genshin impact, rest of your videos about Wuthering waves... not so much sadly.

What I love about Wuthering Waves is that like all the characters are you getting a character? You don’t really have to be afraid of them being power creeped because I mean like obviously everyone has subjective opinion powerful but like you don’t really have to worry about that like you’re not getting a character and then like a next patch, you have to ditch it and wasted all your money like you’re getting good characters in your arm, gonna be worth it for a relatively long period of time and each team is different so you can’t this is my main wanna do something different every character is different in their own way synergy and Arsenal the game really doesn’t force you to pay money like there’s no really big pay like I’ve gotten most of the characters in Wuthering Waves except for like three that I missed because I had surgery, but that was it other than that if I hadn’t had surgery, I would’ve been able to get every single character in the game. I don’t have all the weapons, but I would’ve been able to get every single character so yeah I like the game that really cares about the player based and that have to make changes even if it’s a small train like the only thing that I still annoying with the Wuthering Waves is the team building thing like how you have five team format you can have so you don’t like your first team. Second team and stuff I wish there was more room to make more teams so not like we’re making more like still having the three characters in one team but more deployable team things like instead of five you had like 20 so yeah that’s what I wish they had and I loved

Good for now, apparently tencent owns 51% of the Kuro's stock now. And tencent don't have good histories with games (maybe some idk), but beware there could be powercreeps and more monetization contents in the future content. Even the notice said tencent will not interrupting the development of the game, still. Anyway, god bless Kuro.

[@lesath7883]

That sucks. Hope Tencent does not poison Kuro.

a Kuro insider already debunked this, Tencent is just a shareholder. Kuro will still remain as an independent and Tencent won’t interfere with their current/future plans, strategy and developments so expect more marketing and high quality stuff in WuWa and PGR.

Wuwa content creators arent obsessed with Genshin btw 🤣

[@VetoShizu]

I can't remember if you had it in part 1, but I like how we can grab new 4 stars in Wuwa from the shop as well. I had to skip multiple banners in Genshin because Chevreuse always appeared on banners I don't want to pull on. I would've love to grab her from the shop instead of risking getting C5 Raiden or another 5 star I don't care about, and even then it's still not guaranteed I'll get her if I pull. Funny how I got Youhu from standard, but even if I tried to pull for her and failed I could've grabbed her from the shop now anyway.

At first i thought genshin is a game where it takes place in medieval times due to monstad, but why the hell are there dj in natlan, the nation of war.

[@MuttMeriShart56]

average gacha player attention span and reading comprehension There are Ruin robots and Fatui soldiers with semi automatic rifle and blaster cannon resembling flamethrower since the beginning of the game. Genshin isn't medieval or renaissance, it's just a headcanon made by story skippers and people who have the attention span of a goldfish kek

Hu Tao is still peak. For anyone who thinks otherwise, the "Kiss Me Hu Tao" video has over 3.7M views. Patiently waiting for Rie Takahashi in WuWa. I got Mualani by luck, but the last Genshin character I intentionally pulled for was Furina. That said, I plan to skip Natlan entirely-Columbina is the only character that currently has some of my interest.

[@RanDom-u8i6v]

Genshin exploration is unmatched, it's so much more fun than Wuwa; the overworld feels more alive. Idk why but Wuwa's world look very washed up and bland. The combat is great, elemental reactions injects a lot of complexity without all the quick swap mechanics Wuwa has that gets affected by my ping issues. Wuwa's combat is great too, parrying and dodge counters feels great. Illusion realm is my favourite combat mode, Genshin has nothing like it. I'll keep playing both, Genshin's overwold exploration makes me happy and so does the endgame combat in Wuwa.

[@Jiparo5612]

I like how in wuwa, you can cheese red elite bosses by using the landscape/environmental kills. Even if you low level, can can get gold echoes.

[@SolaceSaga]

@@Jiparo5612 interesting. I’ve never done that before. But I will say, when you get to lager levels that doesn’t matter as much. Every echo you get will be a gold echo

[@Jiparo5612]

@@SolaceSaga when you low on level and resources or not yet unlocked the database for 100% echoes, thinking how to cheese these bosses at early level is fun. I do think that they should add landscape and mechanic like counter attack do % hp damage in one tower of TOA to make figuring out how to cheese at low level instead of dps check is a fun way to get community making strategy around it.

[@kovansky7878]

Everything about Wuwa is always "Better Genshin" or "Genshin is bad compared to Wuwa" or something like that, but that's the only thing EVERYONE says about Wuwa, The game is doomed to be a Better Genshin for the Developers and CC that sell the game like that. The game is decent but its not the best game ever, the game has potential to shine on it's own but is like the devs are trying so hard to make a "Better Genshin" and not a Better Game in general, Gifting 5 Stars or lots of rewards IS NOT how to make a game shine, that's a bribe. And before anybody says i'm a salty Genshin player, I don't even play the game anymore since 2021

[@superclips9442]

What makes you think the devs are just making a "better genshin", when the entire theme and specific Genre of being combat focused don't even Match Genshin?

[@NICSU667]

Genshin is a slow to fast and relies on elemental chain reaction of each attack while Wuwa is fast, parry, dodge mechanic, and now has ult chain. Both have elements but wuwa relies more on intro and outro skills even though they're both open world games they are very distinct on one another so I don't think wuwa is trying to be better genshin they just have some similarities but both don't match.

[@windygrotesque2102]

Of course wuwa was far from to be called best game, but for gacha genre especially the big one, wuwa is much better than the rest and have good direction too Their popularity basically could indirectly affect the upcoming big gacha in the future and people expectation as well

[@kizuki2650]

Gifting a 5 star character is called a bribe now?. I get it genshin doesn't give free 5star so it must be bribing when wuwa does it.😂

[@wanabid98]

What is your proof that wuwa is not generally a better game? It's doesn't have to be genshin wuwa currently the only one i found that deliver best GAMING experience, emphasize gaming here throughout current gacha market. Again what do mean by wuwa is just "better genshin" and not better game? Tldr: giving free character aren't as weird but you only have being playing hoyo game that tell its rare.

[@derb1809]

You and Saintontas are now my favorite wuwa glazer ❤️

[@LampyLumenMyriad]

It's not that we want elemental reaction in the game, it's more of players want each elements to do something more then just diffrent color numbers and gate keepign certain elements from enemies with high resistance, we don't need some crazy elements reaction system like Genshin, I think Kuro should ass minor effects to each element like Fusion doing a little bit of burning, Glacio doing a little bit of freezing, Lightning do a little bit of zapping, Spectro doing something ljke extra toughness and Havoc perhaps doing more damage after enemies gets broken. I really think its a good idea to add a little of of unique elements effects for that more gameplay mechanics like this really can hype the combat even more while not disturbing the already existing combate in Wuwa.

[@Fauna_my]

Uhh did you play the game?bc they did 😂 glacio=freeze fusion=burn,not sure about other one
