Wuthering Waves PREVIEW - Were the Changes Worth the Wait?

[@HavianCritDmg]

The Pre-Registration for Wuthering Waves official release has begun! Use my link to secure your place! ► akioversea.onelink.me/lKVo/a5qrlp7t

[@pumpkinspice4131]

I think it would be cool if they added seasons, as many games don't have that kind of mechanic, they just add in new parts with snow or a fall theme, but it would be way cooler for actual seasons to change during a certain amount of days or the months irl!

As someone who has a passive interest in WuWa but out of the loop with the news, this video was just what I needed. Just like how your Relink 'then & now' gameplay video helped make my decision to purchase it, your coverage is great as always. Can't wait for May, keep up the great work dude

Good video man! As someone who's actively followed the game throughout the years this is a really good summarize for newer players and explains the differences between the two major betas perfectly. Can't wait for the official release!

I love Wuwa and its kinda depressing how much people are hating on it for being a gacha and other reasons other gachas exist in general. Whhy do people have to come ro a video of a game with developers that truly need to make money and are genuinely trying their best ?

@BasedMan88x88 First off is *women. 2nd off women don't have a victim complex they 8/10 are victims of something. And 3rd there's no victim complex here people genuinely are going to WuWa comments saying "it's a gacha I'm not gonna spend a cent for this trash" when that's not an any other upcoming gacha 's comment section and Kuro really does need the money.

Impressive video! +1 subscriber, waiting for your new video about the changes made by the developers (post cbt 2) :D

[@No-Ink]

Im absolutely picking this up. I stopped playing Genshin a good awhile back due too its frustrating issues. This looks like what I wanted from Genshin that the devs refuse to consider.

[@JhayDee-sb7gc]

Just a question. I heard there is limit for boss fights or obtaining echoes per day? and to increase is to join co-op mode. my question is, is there also a limit to how many friends you can join? if I'm done with bosses or got limit echoes in my world and I let someone joined me, does it mean that we both won't get the rewards?

[@Shangb33]

Bosses respawn so you can farm them all day but you will have to wait for 5 minutes for them to respawn. Regular mobs respawn every 24 hours so after killing all of them you can wait for the next day or jump to different people's worlds there is no limit to it and you and your friends can all get echoes together so you will not be stealing from their worlds.

[@Shangb33]

Only 3 people can play together so after finishing all 3 worlds you will need to join random peoples worlds

as much as i'd love to support kuro games and wuwa, i'll still leave this warning. for people who are kinda interested but is afraid of gacha addiction or hates gacha monetization, i suggest watching or asking people how they play their gacha games. unlike usual games, most gacha games just suck your time on reading or listening to the story instead of gameplay and honeytraps you till you swipe.

[@cheriyuna]

not really.. the standard characters & weapons are now separated, pity is decreased, and you have a 100% of getting the limited weapon - sounds much more generous to me.. there will obviously be some similarities, it’s a gacha game after all, and they still need to earn money

The only thing i dislike about the game is the gacha system, they went full Genshin, i expected to be more consumer friendly.

[@thatnohrianscum6475]

Well the game is more expensive to produce. At least the Weapon banner is 100% guaranteed and the pity is 80 with a higher base chance (0.8%) compared to Genshin's 90 and 0.6%.

The worst is battle passes where you progress LESS unless you buy it or pay for skins 🤮 I agree that gaming isn't what it used to be, but I personally prefer Hoyo and Kuro way of gacha
