>China is the largest market for player spending in Genshin Impact, generating more than $82 million to date, or 33.5 percent of total revenue to date. Outside of China, the title has picked up close to $163 million, or 66.5 percent of all player spending. Japan ranks No. 2 with close to $59 million, or 24 percent, while the U.S. rounds out the top three with close to $45 million, or 18.3 percent. >Klee banner week in the past 7 days generated $105M for Genshin Impact
>$245M in revenue >$122.5M after app store gets their cut >$61.25M after taxes >$30.625M after Chinese government fee >$200M+ in budget
How is that impressive? It's fucking over for China.

>Well? What do we think about this? It's nothing new really. F/GO was making bank to and still is really. It's the greedy gacha business model. It's cancer but profitable. We can all just hope it doesn't spread further.
If you like Genshin Impact, you still know full well it's in spite of this and not thanks because of it. So you probably shouldn't praise the cancer.
Ryan Cruz
What do you mean "we"? Are we a fucking hivemind now and we're not allowed to have our own opinions?
Owen Morales
I'm not surprised, I'll keep spending as long as they keep giving me the waifus I want.
It's nothing special, just a signal that the industry is actually growing poorer.
Hudson Bennett
Why does Zig Forums love falseflagging using just obvious lies? We get it, you're pretending 30% cut is a 50% cut, and pretending that cut also applies to PS4 and PC for some reason when it doesn't, and also pretending the budget was twice as large as it actually is. Like, we get it, you pretend false things. For what purpose?
Christian Flores
I've only spent 3k personally but I feel like I've contributed to its success It's a really good game, better than BotW btw
Zachary Reed
cope harder
Benjamin Clark
Good. Hopefully other devs will take note and good games will get made again.
>>If you like Genshin Impact, you still know full well it's in spite of this and not thanks because of it. Not really. A non-gacha game wouldn't timegate things, which means I'd have finished the game in 1 week and never touch it again. BOTW didn't even last me 2 weeks, Genshin has officially lasted me a full month and I know I'll keep playing it for several more months minimum because I'm closing in on leveling up alternate characters, a huge playtime boost for me.
Non-gacha don't get 5+ years of huge content updates and constant events in-game, and they certainly don't get roster increases every 3 weeks.
Grayson Perez
The budget was $110m, the "+100% for marketing" meme doesn't apply to games. The marketing budget is included in those 110 million.
Elijah Fisher
On PC there is no appstore cut and that's where most of the hardcore players, aka the whales, will be. Kill yourself faggot.
Lucas Hall
Same, just up to 4K. I was a little disappointed in Diluc after getting him to C3, and Klee not only cost me less to get to C6 but she's a hell of a lot more fun to play, and cute too.
I like how China gives funny propaganda jabs in game too. You tell 'em Klee, Child Labor Laws are bullshit.
Why the fuck would I play a singeplayer game for 5 years? Especially if it's just grinding the characters. You're mentally ill.

Considering the aggressive marketing all over the globe.

No! You can't just have children work! Let them starve to death instead of developing skills to provide for the next generation so they can have a better life!
Brandon Hall
Because it's an MMO.
No single player game requires an online server to play.
Gabriel White
You didn't actually, seriously, unironically spend THOUSANDS of dollars on this shit right? You're just trolling right?
Chase Collins
Why even bother making other games? There will never be a game in existence that will be even half as good as Genshin Impact. Every other game company should just close business honestly.
Jose Green
>20.3K viewer on Twitch >only 2 threads on Zig Forums At least the shilling is dead.
William Collins
It's an always online single player game, there's no massive multiplayer to speak of.
Isaac Williams
>Klee banner week in the past 7 days generated $105M for Genshin Impact Holy fucking shit, and I rolled Klee for zero(o) dollars. Thanks for funding the game, whales.
>always online single player game Too much words for trash.
Nolan Ross
Good guy, keep the children from boosting your economy and make sure adults have a minimum wage to waste cash as well. A refined speech code and van on certain words / items? Nooooo don't be silly goy you don't need that to improve your national culture you just need "freedom" goy. Yes relish that "freedom"
Cameron Butler
Threads are being deleted, watch this one disappear too.
Oliver King
Piss off yank.
Luis Sanders
Based.
Aiden Allen
stop being poor I waste thousands on other useless shit too
Isaac Mitchell
Whatever happened to this game any way? I was kinda popular two weeks ago
Blake Martinez
After what happened in France, I spent another $20 on roll.
Keep going strong, China.
Mason Roberts
Are we suppose to celebrate this? Wanna celebrate EA getting hundreds of millions from FUT cards alone now as well? Yay, gambling and abhorent monetization practice??
Jack Thomas
Nah, it's mostly a bunch of minority who pay for this game, it's a free game after all.
They make money via selling metadata.
Zachary Hall
There’s fuckall to do after a certain point.
Jordan Martin
>just making up random numbers user you could do better than this. This isn’t even bait.
