RE: Genshin Impact - Mr EliteL - Apr 6th, 2022
Yeah that was silly on their part, it's like they didn't test or consider the effect the change would've done to her C2. Good it's getting reverted, even if it ends up still targeting attackable objects in the middle of a fight in the overworld. Just...add a little 0 on the end of the compensation plz. *shot*
RE: Genshin Impact - Mr EliteL - Apr 16th, 2022
With the Covid lockdown in China/Shanghai it's quite possible 2.7 will be delayed, and people are talking about it. Seems there are many people who are getting angered about the delay even though it's completely reasonable to expect there to be one. An event from 2.6 with the Serenitea Pot looks like it will be getting pushed back because of the predicament too. The workers shouldn't be forced to get 2.7 ready on time for the idiots not caring about their safety, I'm happy to patiently wait. There's also mentions of a possibly third banner or an Ayaka banner extension, although since there was a Keqing one before in-between Xiao and Hu Tao's original runs, I'd imagine there could be the third banner for 2.6 which could be a character needing a rerun (Klee, Kazuha, Yoimiya) or the Itto or Xiao leaks, just maybe not a 5* from Standard again. In a way I don't want Kazuha to be the in-between as it could be short lived, he needs a full length run because loads of players will be wishing for him. Then again poor Klee and Yoimiya will very likely be skipped, so would a Standard 5*.

Wait, China is going back into COVID lockdowns? Lol. I haven't cared about COVID in months, so I haven't paid any attention to anything relating to it.
Oh well, if 2.7 gets delayed, that's just more reason to give all of my time/attention to the Tower of Fantasy beta and ignore Genshin until things get moving again.

Genshin Impact 2.7 Officially Delayed
I didn't realise this was announced two days ago, and I'm sure you two are aware of it but if somehow you're not, 2.7 has officially been delayed.
What compensation do you hope/think will be given out in light of this?
RE: Genshin Impact - Mr EliteL - Apr 30th, 2022
I kinda was informed (via YT) but didn't check it out officially so wasn't 100% sure of the delay, but yeah it was to be expected really. Think I've seen a teaser trailer leaked perhaps, as in not by Genshin's own YT account but was just showing Yelan and Kuki, and had an image at the end with them both, Itto, Xiao and Yanfei so judging by that, 2.7 will indeed have reruns for Xiao and Itto.
As for compensation, I honestly want anything because I'm aware of what is likely the cause, unless the compensation is a third banner period for 2.6 to make up the time until 2.7 can come out. If there's Primogems and further Serenitea Realm Currency too then so be it. Not fussed on the amount.
RE: Genshin Impact - Dragon Lord - May 1st, 2022
It's gonna have to be something significant. This delay is going to be a huge blow to the game and there's going to be a lot of players leaving the game if they don't give something that makes the wait worthwhile.
Especially with the Tower of Fantasy beta going on right now. As someone who is in the beta and getting to experience what ToF is like, this delay definitely makes me consider the idea of maybe dropping Genshin and putting all of my eggs in the Tower of Fantasy basket instead. Because if MiHoYo thinks that 90 Primogems and running a worthless standard character banner is going to be enough to make up for the delay, then they are delusional.
We'll see if Genshin can survive this. Especially if the rumors of it being a three week delay are true. Pretty fucking annoying that it might end up pushing the Kazuha re-run another month back.
RE: Genshin Impact - Moonface - May 2nd, 2022
Isn't 2.7 just two new characters though? Like is postponing that for however long really going to be bad enough that players leave over it?
Also if people were to leave over a delayed update, it makes it sound like the main reason a lot of people care for this game is the updates, and that if one day it was announced there will be no further updates that everyone would leave because the game doesn't have enough to offer already that would make people want to keep coming back.
RE: Genshin Impact - Dragon Lord - May 2nd, 2022
Gacha games live and die by their content. No new content gives people reason to jump ship and find a new game to play. I'm currently playing a gacha game called Revived Witch that is bleeding players because the content updates are so few and far between.
Every patch cycle brings with it a new character or two + highly anticipated character re-runs + a host of events and content to clear. Without those new events to do, there's no content for veteran players to do aside from burn their Resin and do their Dallies (maybe 10-15 worth of play time every day).
MiHoYo has already been on thin ice with the fanbase since the "Anniversary debacle", so if they botch the compensation for this, I fear the ice might finally break. MiHoYo has to be especially careful with Tower of Fantasy looming on the horizon and that Seven Deadly Sins game that's basically a Genshin clone also coming up later this year. This whole thing is just going to make it harder for MiHoYo to make those other games less appealing over Genshin.
RE: Genshin Impact - Moonface - May 2nd, 2022
I was meaning to ask what you do every session once you're finished with the event content. Sounds similar to AC:NH where a lot of the time is spent just doing 10 minutes of daily things when there's no progression left to do and no events happening, so I can see now how people would jump ship quickly when there's nothing notable left to do for an extended period.
If you were to drop this game would you go back to it down the line @Dragon Lord when the content drops start up regularly again? Or do you think you'd stick entirely to whatever game you move onto?
RE: Genshin Impact - Mr EliteL - May 3rd, 2022
Personally I have close to or actual zero interest in any other games, either like Genshin or anything else new and have two accounts worth to keep me going, plus wanting to get every character I use to have decent to the best I can give them builds. So yeah I'm going to be playing for however long. Putting it that way though about Hoyoverse need to make sure the wait's worth it with compensation then I can understand that part, especially with ToF and other competition. So basically we need a Kazuha banner in-between to keep players interested as he's the top most wanted character, and not a Standard, Klee or Yoimiya unfortunately. Although once every one has him, they're probably going to start complaining everything is easy clear, or boring if we get events like the ones in Irodori (me included).
RE: Genshin Impact - Moonface - May 5th, 2022
Not sure if this is definitely official but I just saw that the plan for compensation is a weekly drop of the following:
- Primogem x400
- Fragile Resin x1
- Hero's Wit x7
- Mystic Enchantment Ore x16
- Mora x120,000
RE: Genshin Impact - Dragon Lord - May 6th, 2022
It is official, and it's an absolute fucking joke. 2.7 needs to be delayed for an entire month just to get 10 pulls out of this "compensation."
The one Fragile Resin is pathetic (gives 60 Resin), the 7 Hero's Wits are less than running two Leylines worth, I can make 30 Mystic Enhancement Ores a day via the Blacksmith, so getting 16 for an entire week is an absolute joke, and the 120,000 Mora is pocket change compared to what you need for high level upgrades.
I expected MiHoYo to be cheap on the compensation for this, but holy fuck is this bad. Insert "I expect nothing, and I'm still disappointed." meme here.
To make it even more insulting to the players, it was just reported that Genshin has made over 3 Billion dollars off of the mobile version alone, and this is all they can manage to give players? Absolutely pathetic.

I don't know if it's possible but is there a way to put a monetary value on the entire compensation package? I'm not sure how many of those items can be purchased in some form with real currency to figure it out myself.

(May 8th, 2022, 12:30 AM)Moonface Wrote:A Leyline is a mist on the open world you can activate to start a small challenge fight, beating it wins you Mora (game currency) or EXP books, as long as you have Resin to claim the reward. You can choose which one as there's yellow for Mora and blue for EXP books both available at the same time in different locations, and every region has one of each. Another spawns in the region after finishing a Leyline.
Also yeah the compensation is quite low. I'm not too grumpy about but main, it should've been 1600 primos each week, or have some set Fates too. Definitely more on Mora and such. Suppose I don't complain too much as I will get them twice in the end. Ah well.
RE: Genshin Impact - Moonface - May 16th, 2022
I'm a little surprised they would want to show off another new character when there's not even an ETA on when the other new stuff that got delayed is even coming.
