>sony is making a big deal about genshin impact
>exclusive shit and paid bundles revealed
so, any chance they try to take advantage of the MASSIVE press they've been getting and go closer to warframe style f2p, or just go "fuck it max cashgrab" and stick with scam gacha?
Sony has no power over Mihoyo. Mihoyo will do whatever they've been doing since forever and jew the shit out of their gacha.
They won't they make stupid money from gacha but honestly I wouldn't even pull anything at launch since they will improve it later down the line
That and it's standard MO for gacha to have insane powercreep within a year.
Do we know if accounts will be cross platform? Can I start on my PC/PS4 then play on my Switch whenever that comes out? I'd play Mobile but my phone would jusy die instantly.
we already saw the power creep emerge when they added the gooks to the game
Sony knows how much gacha games can sell due to FGO. Now they want in on the action.
>Do we know if accounts will be cross platform?
I can't imagine them making one server for every platform. Waste of money.
Even Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles embraced cross platform and Sony was fine with that.
Sony is being sony and their isnt cross save in genshin between pc/ps4
so wait
this game is a free 2 play mmo?
but its like an rpg in a sense where its not really a OC you make and play as but set characters and shit
so its like.. BoTw elsword?
They tweeted that cross account will work for PC/Switch/Mobil. Sony is once again on its own little island.
Crossplay is a given but cross-save is, so far, only for PC and mobile.
Its BotW but you pay money to open lootboxes to get playable characters, and being a gacha there is constant updates introducing new even stronger playable characters that you pay to open lootboxes for.
concept might be need, depends on how limited the game gets when it comes to having pay2unlock characters. like in sense of "some content requires certain skills with certain characters to proceed" and stuff
honesty might give it a shot if the whole lootbox thing is fair in a sense of being able to obtain them through othe rmeans aside from paying.
Its a gatchapon game but open world adventure.
There isn't much depth to it at all, its all about getting you to buy characters.
neat*
>like in sense of "some content requires certain skills with certain characters to proceed"
If you ever played their other game, it's less 'certain skills to progress' but more 'certain characters turn from a challenging mission to a curbstomp'. Multiplayer content, on the other hand, is an entirely different beast where it's most likely p2w.
>no cross-save
not interested in playing on there anymore, will be playing on PC though.
Do they also update with new areas and missions that you need the stronger characters to pass through? The only gacha I played was FGO and that is still getting constant new events and story updates to incentivize continued playing and spending. If there's a complete finishable main story on release and you can finish it with the free characters I can't imagine paying for other ones since I'm mostly a gameplayfag rather than a waifufag.
I'm gonna try it on ps4 cause no way in hell would I ever download chinese anything onto my phone, and the anticheat they use is like the riot one, except it doesn't have actual security behind it. The shit was ripped open in the closed beta, and had issues like mysteriously not ending after you closed it.
the beta story was totally finishable, the main game's story will probably be easily completed with the team the game gives to you for free, since you get a bunch of fairly strong characters that synergize well (with your main character who can be whatever element you want)
A gay little sword and some gay wings?
the weapon is the best weapon that was in the beta for the main character (or any sword user) to use, the wings are probably max speed like paid ones.
How bad game plays on base ps4?
as of the previous CBT, load times were fucking terrible and there was a rainbow light show with the backgrounds in liyue and a few other towns that persisted until you either had a seizure and died or restarted the game. frame drops were also terrible in combat. I'll probably use controller on PC though, controller felt way better than KB+M.
truth is that no one gives a shit about that shit.
Sad to hear, I actually want to try it, but my phone probably wouldn't be able to handle the game.
If you have to, just emulate the mobile version.
I don't know how any phone can feasibly run this shit without atrocious loadtimes, but I don't have a phone so I won't be testing it.
>Mihoyo saying nothing about the switch version
How much did Sony pay them bros?
>sonybros get isolated from normal people
haha
Very cool Sony.
Still not gonna buy your garbage consoles.
It was really shit, so shit they were going to delay the release of the game. They either found out what was causing the massive framedrops/load issues, or are just releasing it anyway.
This game is going to launch on all systems including PC and still sell less than BOTW.
and for some odd reason Sony fans are going to be seething because of it.
This is my prediction.
