7:14 No, you don't need the star thingies, they are only bragging rights. You just need to reach the end to get all rewards.
To me I enjoy any type of gameplay that forces you to use more characters than what you usually use, especially in games where there are tons of recruitable characters.
Mid end game..
I had no more hopes from Genshin now..
It is a cheap copy of Simulated Universe with some element restrictions in it.
Wowzers it’s too easy for whales well what do ya know… Smh
I love that it inspires creative team comps with restrictions. It's so fun
Also. The lore is really interesting
I know the theorycrafter fanbase tends to be pessimistic about the game. But for many genshin players, i think this is an awesome edition
The only 'difficulty' resides in the character RNG. And even then, on my first run, with the worst possible teams, I cleared it all.
The most difficult thing about the game mode for me, was not being able to use Yoimiya more than 2 times.
Also, I don't like that you need to have 4 characters in the team. That's annoying.
I hate it. As a ftp I don‘t even have enough chars to start the hardest mode…
Hoyo forces you to get more chars = to pull for more chars. They even reduced the rewards for spiral abyss, which ftp’s could at least start!
I really like your more measured opinion of this mode and appreciate that you used weaker characters to understand the more typical player. You acknowledge that the experience may be different for more casual and underleveled players. So many content creators bash it for being easy, uninteresting, and unwieldy without realizing that there are actual strategic decisions that need to be made. They give lip service to the fact that maybe their account is too strong, but they don't bother to simply take off some artifacts and see what that's like.
I'm AR 57, been playing for 16 months. I'm very much a sweaty meta player and understand elemental gauge theory, snapshotting, ICD, etc. But since I vertically invested into my C2 Furina and her domain, I was very underbuilt for this Theater. I had to level up 3 characters to 70 just to meet requirements. It took me three overall tries but probably 20 tries on one of the middle floors. I finally actually used Sayu and Xiangling to beat that "groupable" Eremites floor. It's not a meme team: enemies too far apart for Kazuha to group, so Sayu was the only way to quickly damage everything.
Personally, I feel like hard mode isn't quite doable for accounts under 1 year old, probably doable for those 1-2 years old, and easily doable for those older than that. So it's a pretty good spread, and I think it will make a lot of casual players happy.
Too easy tbh
Just "a little" disappointed? It's a chore…
I'm an old player but I'm FTP, meaning I was only able to access the easy mode of this supposely "endgame" cause I optimized 3 teams and left the rest on the bench, not being able to reach the charachters requirements… big disappointment
How are the rewards
First time sir Iwtl late
For me what hard is getting the character
For difficult? It worth it
Spiral abyss should give same amount of reward
looks pretty boring and not very rewarding, tbh.
AR60 was easy. But not the Endgame i except. Was except more story, more bonus, more do to like swarm disaster from HSR. But no. Only a little bit. Even Hertas universe was more fun to do. Build the tree, getting stuff for the runs, ect. Hope this mode get a update or it will be. A first of the month. In out. Wait
Not only I need to pull for characters and win 50/50 in wishes, I also need to pull them now just for combat now
What's next? need to pull for characters for overworld?
Truly one of the worst, hoyo never disappoints me when it comes to finding new ways to fuck over players
For us potato mobile players it's kinda hard(well that's expected).
I'm glad you had fun with it. I didn't .
I despise the fact that we have to start with their selected set of characters.
I despite the fact that I can't get to choose my team properly, they might as well just randomly assign 4 characters each run and call it a day at this point.
Simulated Universe in HSR was giving rewards even after you cleared it for that week, it gave you materials that said monsters drop. It represented an easy way to get a lot of materials early one.
Genshin's version of it doesn't. Also Simulated Universe doesn't make you shit teams unless you make shit teams.
I had to fight the final boss in this game mode with:
Trial Chlorine, Diluc, Faruzan and I think Fishl.
Regardless you can tell how shit that final run way, yes, I cleared it because Chlorine can stay out of range and spam electro attacks and heal herself but still it was awful
I can't even imagine how awful it would've been if my laptop pass still broken and I wanted to play this on my phone….
It’s pretty easy and fun, but I wish they had some sort of flex slot element? I don’t like the 3 element limit simply because the reactions are too limited especially if some of my characters don’t work well with specific reactions (ex: Hu Tao overload is ok but nothing compared to vaporize or melt).
I do like it because it feels rewarding having my built but benched characters still help clear some endgame content.
It's just bad for vertical investors, who min-max their favourite characters, and not touch the rest, clearly this is also not for players playing this game for 3-4 months… As someone who main Keqing and Ningguang and has 2 built teams, this is definitely not for me now, I can 36 stars Abyss but, do I have 12 built characters? No. Horizontal scalers, this is nice for you, but… Let's see. I'll pull for Navia in 4.8 and, save everything for Natlan, will try to get some really good supports, as I've 3 hypercarry(s).
I’m an AR 59 player who’s been at it since 1.5. I only ever built 2 full teams (Hu Tao double hydro and a Morgana variant with Ayaka) because I was always able to clear Abyss with them quite easily, plus some other characters that I liked. Definitely came back to bite me in the ass for this challenge. I would say I have 20-ish well-built characters, but definitely not enough to well-built pyro/anemo/electro characters to make this a breeze. And even then, some of my best characters frequently share artifacts.
Yeah, I just don't think this is the game mode long time players wanted… 😔
I rather do Abyss. I have cleared Theater perfectly with all Stars and Requirements, but its not Fun. And i still rather want the old Abyss back and bring Labyrinth Warriors back as permanent Mode.
I'm day 1 player and I couldn't beat the last boss ..was always 20-30% hp away..it constantly staggered me taking big chunks of my life. I didn't have ousia pneuma character and they would keep getting ice shield up..Diluc + Thoma weren't keeping up enough for Xiao to do the job. Idk man.. I tried everything but I had to sack the run after 10+ tries. Have to start from level 1 all over again. Ughhhh. It's so annoying. I prefer Spiral Abyss over this bs. It's too restrictive with characters we can use and make bosses way more frustrating coz you can't use optimal counter thanks to those restrictions. Anyways I'm sure it's easy but if you aren't good at strategizing it sux. I will do second run at some point but I am fed up of it for now. And yes my characters are built decently well. They were never sharing artifacts with each other or things like that.
7:46 how when I use trial clorinde she weak af
They’re trying to add features to force usage of more characters. An upcoming feature will require characters to be lvl90 too. I wonder if this will lead to frustration and revolt because of the horrible artifact system. Most of my characters have been 80/90 or 85/90 because investing all the way to 90 felt like a waste of resources…
I think the only problem with this game mode is that it doesn't have the QOL changes that the new simulated universe got, the one where ur characters level and artifacts and talents are scaled to the max! in that case even new players would find this game mode easy since it's not about building the characters but simply having them
I was also very disappointed when playing this content. I was really hoping to see end game content, this is just too easy. They make us use horrible teamcomps, which are somehow able to obliterate the enemies. Just let us use fun teams, and make us fight actual difficult enemies. like putting 2 world bosses in 1 challenge.
hoyo who asked for this?
AR60 here and I am STRUGGLING to go past round 6. Either I don't have enough characters or the characters are not strong enough. And yes, I've built all my characters. This might be like abyss where I don't do the last stages, just the early stages 😅
