what Genshin need the most is competitors.
but asking for equal competitors for Genshin that taking the lead for 3 years and billion dollars budget development their game thus far is IMPOSSIBLE.
only way newer game can compete with Genshin is in area that Genshin lacking the most.
QOL and community relations.
I actually add some things to the idea and that would the gaining exp in certain quest or areas. This is so to make low leveled characters in your party level up potentially easier and therefore saving resources that gradually do boost the character to max level before ascension.
Also make ascension and/or talent materials rewards be increased since more than one character share about the same required amount materials which would therefore have players be able to level up talent of more than characters if they grind a lot on the game. (Again, this is probably an add in onto the rewards section of this video. )
You were definitely cooking with this one dude. I legit forgot how so many features and how they bugged me.
lol they are never adding any of this, that would require them to want want to make the game fun rather than an addictive time waster
So, the reason why the flames go away from the Mausoleum is because you fixed what Deshret broke, at least in that area. Dude opened up a hole to the abyss, and that was some very bad shit pouring into Teyvat. Similar thing happens with reality hole in the last zone (though at least you get a magic tree to replace it).
To reduce my own yapping
TLDR A lot of the additions dont really have any semblance of balance.
They dont really make Genshin a better game but make Genshin a better Gacha
Which might feel like the same thing but there not
It also seems like the addition of complexity( trying to avoid saying to much) is very centered on the PC experience
But Genshin is developed with Mobile limitations in mind
There are a few note worth things but for the most part its basically making Genshin like every other Gacha
But Genshin fails at being a good gacha game which is why so many enjoy Genshin
Thats as simple as i can make it without 20 paragraphs
Its all in good fun but if half of these things were added most people would quit
what's the name of the game at 29:10 ?
Really good video! You have so many great ideas here, I especially love your resin and endgame ideas!
I agree – as a fairly new player to genshin I also noticed the stamina increase on our characters has stopped increasing after maxing Liyue statue of the seven. Definitely would've been nice to have more stamina for every new region even if it's just 10% extra stamina duration but oh well! Personally I don't have any issues with the current stamina system as it is but it's definitely a welcome upgrade (if they ever decide to do so).
All your suggestions are great. Too bad the 'verse wont do anything to make the game better as long as its printing billions of dollars for them.
russian tartaglia would go so hard. SO HARD. also i agree, at the very least let us have voice language toggle for characters, they have this feature in SFV and it was a blessing.
i don't think a single one of your takes were a miss, each suggestion was a hit. awesome video!
Its a shame on albedo because id prefer him over chiori for Itto but nope. If i get Itto on 50/50 try for cracked weapon instead
Team Ults or combo Ults would be really cool. Especially if Archon teams had special team Ults. Venti pulling everyone into a spot while Zhongli drops the rock, then Shogun slicing through the stunned enemies, while Furina just watches from the stands and cheers.
Il be honest half of these are batshit insane while the other half is what almost every hardcore player wants. Sad reality it will never come until the game is somehow losing 50% of their players
watching this kind of vid always saddening cuz that never gonna be happen lol
the ideas are good… and that's why mihoyo won't implement them
Sad to think that mihoyos probably not gonna add anything like this the game could be soooo much better but they chose mediocrity
It was interesting to listen to your thoughts. Some are way too ambitious and unrealistic – like adding a 2nd skill, but yeah, that would make a game better.
MHY barely implemented any QoL during these 3+ years of the game. And it was bare minimum. New banner is not good as well. So barely anyone believe, that they gonna make essential changes to the game core. These discussions still valuable. Some people will acknowledge, that it is possible to have actually good things. Someone maybe even leave genshin for a better game, that actually take care of player's experience.
p.s. BGM is bizzare. I like that kind of music. But it distracts hard. Especially when trying to listen to a man, who speaks 6 words per second. Lyricless music would fit better.
mihoyo is not gonna take this video seriously after they look at the social credit meme pic bruh
none of your gameplay/buff will ever happen skip story is also impossible
think God i didn't waste more time on genshin
You are mad that Inazuma is canonically closed off? I think it would be quite immersion breaking if you could freely enter the only nation that has strict border patrol. Instead of opening up, there should be ways to get materials from Inazuma, e.g. from merchants (since some are still allowed there).
moding will get you banned =(
One thing people dont understand is that Hoyo being data focused, you just have to keep asking for these things in their version surveys instead of just writing it off as "hoyo could never"
Mihoyo:
Oh! You want stamina?! OKAY!
Buy a new skin, You Get Stamina! :v
6:41 they could do an elden ring and make stamina infinite out of combat, and start depleting only when you get hit or hit enemies.
My idea would be something like Memorial Arena in HI3 or Snowbreak's Neural Simulation like you said. It's just you and your party against a single boss, either a weekly or regular boss, with difficulties that will escalate each time you beat the boss. Higher difficulties would mean the boss would either move faster, hit harder or even gain a unique attack previously unseen when you encounter them on the outworld.
38:35 You can actually partially choose what Parametric Transformer will give you. Its loot table is tied to what you feed to it.
Holy F he's cookin here with some of these ideas.
49:25 this is a big one because it reminds me, Why the fuck is CD Reduction a stat on the stat list when literally ONE character can do it??? It's been 3 years and I know for a fact that they don't play their own game, did they forget that it exists?
If everything you said was added to the game, Genshin would be BY FAR the best gacha game that is on right now
