The Genshin Impact KFC Glider Drama is kinda dumb, but here we are. Genshin twitter hates this tweet. It seems like Mihoyo is always surrounding themselves in controversy and like always there is now Genshin Impact drama in the community. The only way to get this limited edition kfc wings is through twitch, but you have to pay for 2 months of subs to get it, additionally it seems like content creators are not happy with the event since it forces them to only play Genshin Impact for 2 weeks straight and per the contract. so the question is, will you be participating or skipping the KFC gliders?

I almost didn't make this video since it was announced when I was sleeping and I personally think the whole thing is kinda dumb… 😅 But its a decent talking point at least. What do you guys think about this latest community drama? Warranted or kinda dumb?
i’m confused i heard we had to gift 2 subs then you say no we have to subscribe to a small content creator so which one is it? also, tbh idc about subbing 10$ for them but let’s not act like they shouldn’t have just kept it via a KFC promotion. i’d rather have a meal than sub to channels i couldn’t give a shit about JUST for a glider. RIP to all the small content creators feelings who have to experience arbitrary growth for one month just to lose it all the next.
I lIke this Battlefield :3 can't wait~ the chaos
Idc for the glider, but mihoyo's intentions are just kinda sus
Ten dollars is quite a lot in my country's money currency. Good thing it isn't a must so it's a skip for me and meh for me~ If it was a character, it would have cause a lot more problems.
Just quit
haters always gonna hate… i have absolutely nothing against anyone who took the deal, it's their own decision and right.
people on the internet are too cancerous… going after voice actors or small creators as opposed to directing their dissatisfaction at mihoyo who are trying to do basically nothing for the community as a whole while earning a ton of money in the process from fans, creators, artists, cosplayers etc…
I honestly didn’t mind I had to pay for the wings,
I kind of found it a bit troublesome to get cause it was bound to twitch subs only. (I feel like it should also be a purchase-able item in the shop cause I believe the wings feel kind of restrictive in the nature to get, even more than the Aloy stuff.)
But honestly what pissed me off was the draconian like contract mihoyo is doing.
A two week only playing Genshin contract is kind of ridiculous especially since they aren’t paying for what these content creators are doing
Because this is more free publicity for them which doesn’t really promise anything to these content creators
For all we know the smallest ones might just get a few subs and then feel stuck with this game for another week, not to mention who knows if the people might just leave after the subs and never return
I feel like it should have been anyone and not just a hand picked selection of what mihoyo decides cause that in there also lies another problem, they can just pick a bunch of people who they consider yes men or just a small minute minority.
But then you also have to consider you have to be positive (i heard it from I think mtashed or tectone or someone that you must be positive about the game) which just feels more controlling.
This all just feels so predatory cause some people might just fall for this (Enviosity had a similar where he had to call Mihoyo Rep’s and have this contract terminated because he didn’t know much about the situation.)
I am honestly just really unhappy how this seems harmless but then you make out the inner parts and it feels so heavily greedy/ and just vile feeling.
Even if it’s two weeks it feels kind of like another pyramid scheme.
KFC Glider…… 🥱
i dont even understand why harass the people who wants to participate, if a well-known does well i kinda get it but a smaller one? thats bs
Duh, i dont go to pay for something like that…
The people are free to do with they money…
But wtf, why always is a mess all this kind of things comming from mihoyo
Mihoyo Does shitty thing, Community has a shitty response what else is new.
Mihoyo is sooooooo slimy!!!!! Poor content creators!
Mihoyo just full of sus
Nobody's Forcing you guys too buy it Stop crying
Would've love to get the wings by purchasing kfc meal combo from the store like it was done on China
Agree with you 100%. People who are complaining about this is the same crybabies who cried about anniversary rewards and review bombed other apps
If Mhy put it on in-game store we won't feel so forcefully limited, because not everyone wanna sub on twitch.
I dont care about how my gilde looks like I care about can I glide or not.
I wasn't going to get the wings because twitch subs are too expensive in my country but I wasn't against the idea itself. However, the contract is absolute garbage and it's unfair to the streamers :/
petty drama, this is why people outside genshin community ridicule them
We can actually screw mihiyo over by everyone giving away this wings for free for everyone. Just need to abuse the system
I want to pay for KFC so I can eat the wings myself.Don’t care about random streamers.
It's just wings right now.. Imagine a character skin drama in the near future.
Personally I find these wings ugly and never wanted them – unpopular opinion I know – but seeing Mihoyo taking advantage of smaller content creators for free advertising yet again makes me just…sigh. Why couldn't they just be a paid item ingame? No different than a skin, imho.
Imagine defending this type of business practice lol Edit: D2 did this gift sub thing too but actually did it right…. 🙂
Meh who cares they look kinda meh anyway. And im sure its allot cheaper than buying something from KFC too lol.
The contract streamers have to follow is very scummy. But as a vegan, I prefer the twitch route instead of going to kfc.
I don't really care but I feel one way they could've minimized backlash was to to just put it on the genisis shop for maybe 20 or 30 but then again people would probably still complain anyway
I mean play 2 weeks of genshin so basically watch em roaming around teyvat like a headless chicken
I wanted that but I don't care anymore. The drama does come out kind of dumb but we must consider how Mihoyo/Genshin treats their fans/creators/etc. This much is expected since they make sure to destroy what ever goodwill they have with their customers.
I don’t care about a glider skin, let alone some kfc wings. I just feel bad for the content creators.
You already have 16k wowwww!!! Also the kfc glider matches most characters so I hope they actually come maybe for free
I feel like if they were going to force content creators to ONLY play Genshin Impact for 2 weeks they should have offered the creator something in return… also I'm not really that crazy about the wings in the first place TBH
