Well this is fucking weird. It's unusual in a game for the launch characters to be the broken OP ones and the ones released later to be decidedly "meh." Usually it's the other way around.
What are they thinking? This is just going to result in people buying Venti and Klee and not bothering with the rest.
Come one user, not every characters have to be Diluc but x color. The amout of seething on reddit right now prove this game player base is too retarded.
Levi Martinez
If I had to guess it's probably because this game is so ridiculously popular that it attracts people who haven't played this kind of game before. It'd be like if someone saved for Skadi and then they were like "What the fuck?! Her NP doesn't do any damage, why is she so bad!". That's the kind of impression I get reading those posts.
Tyler Jackson
just close your eyes and do not roll dumb bicht nigger lol
Jeremiah Campbell
Hey she cute Since when chinks makes good brown characters
Matthew Roberts
Kek i remember when every went crazy for Skadi then absolute shit on her later.
I still see people debating about whether or not she's good so maybe it's just that every character who isn't "unga bunga free damage for doing nothing" is incomprehensible to the average gamer.
Jack Young
They're Chinese weebs. Weebs function on making girl look hot as fuck no matter the skintone. They're undivided by color and race and united by the strength of pure perversion and lust
Josiah Perry
Doesnt matter cause this game is easy and can be beaten with any set of characters
Kevin Collins
I started playing a few weeks and just got skadi so I'm glad! But from what I understand of the Arknight community anything that is not brokenly OP is considers "meh" or bad
Venti is trash in non-mob floors. You retards also called Klee bad for some reason despite her being better than Diluc.
Aiden Sanders
That seems to be true of the Genshin community too. Every single thread there's some smug bastard that shits on everyone who doesn't have Venti even though the game is so easy you can beat everything with Amber if you want. Furthermore since Venti was the very first rateup the only way you got him was tediously rerolling for hours, or paying real money. Side note, I feel like Genshin might be the only gacha game where there are more male 5 stars than female 5 stars.
William Brown
No, the thing in AK is you can pretty much do everything given you use decent 3/4 stars characters.
If you REALLY want to optimise and bet the best in special events, you need some OP rare characters.
Jose Phillips
I think people just get a kick out of trashing every new character in the hopes that someone reading it gets a horrible feeling like they just wasted a ton of money for nothing and the chicks for free. You got Klee? Time to do everything in my power to make you regret that decision. Something like that.

To add to this, Mihoyo's slogan is "Tech otakus save the world."
Logan Bell
It's "tech otakus", aka computer geeks, not animu fags that happened to be into tech.
Evan Jones
Otaku is literally only used for anime nerds. How can you be this confidently stupid?
Cooper Perez
Reminder she has a bush
Aaron Wilson
Not in Japanese. You shouldn't be surprised Chinese are more in tune with Japanese use than English weeb-exclusive use >How can you be this confidently stupid? The irony
She's a support, nigger. She has a shield and she cleanse the Abyss.
Robert Gomez
Mihoyo as a company started because some dude wanted to animate some anime pantsu in 3D
Adam Parker
She cleanse the abyss with what?
Jeremiah Evans
>It's unusual in a game for the launch characters to be the broken OP ones and the ones released later to be decidedly "meh." In gachas its actually fairly common.
Most devs have no fucking idea how to balance so it takes 4-5 characters until they start releasing streamlined skills
John Butler
Its literally that >NOOOO HES A REALLY STRONG SUPPORT HOW COULD I BE BETRAYED LIKE THIS >WHY WOULD I WANT SHIELDS FOR A FUCK TON OF DAMAGE THAT PREVENT STAGGERING AND LET ME UNGA DOWN DOMAINS AND ABYSS AND LETS ME CHEESE FIGHTS Its the most retarded thing I have seen in a long ass time
Jason Diaz
I guess it's true that Jack the Ripper was so OP that they got scared and never made another Assassin as good as her, but that's the only example I know of.
Jack Allen
>there are more male 5 stars than female 5 stars. Dongli, venti, childe, diluc Jean, qiqi, keqing, klee, mona ?
Jeremiah Clark
>support in DPS check - the endgame ? Unless it provides some kind of amp then good luck with getting c6.
Brandon Hughes
Langrisser the launch SSRs were the best in game for almost a year. FEH it was a few months until they released any good new characters. For newer games Illusion Connect the new stuff after launch has been bad.
Its been forever but I recall PADs first few new characters were trash.
Brandon Campbell
Albedo, Xiao, that's enough so I don't need to list anymore.
Jack Cook
Asuka, hu tao ?
James Peterson
DPS check doesn't matter if you die. And you need the right character jobs for that, you can't clear AByss 12 without cleansing
Bentley Torres
Neither of those characters are in the game yet.
Elijah Torres
Not him but her cleanse doesn't repeatedly apply pyro over and over like Bennett or Jean burst
Noah Scott
Oh, I thought she was bennet tier at it.
Carter Young
How to check that shitposter doesn't even play this game, lel. Hu tao is a character in a srory quests, retard.
You really dont need more than 2 DPS. Im not saying fire chicks good but theres so many strong DPS in the game getting good supports like Fish, Bennet, Sucrose, and Venti is honestly harder and more important.
Thomas Rivera
In the same game, Waver is far and away the best 5* until they made Merlin to be a better Waver on limited release.
Wyatt Kelly
otaku is used for any sort of obsessive autism, fucking ironic weeb
Oliver Collins
>if they make the characters high quality enough people buy because they like them/visuals/sounds >the game also doesnt get raped to death by powercreep Its literally a win win situation.
Cameron Jones
Didn't waver suck donkey balls in JP until they buffed him?
Charles Howard
The only Broken character is Venti
Everyone told you to reroll because he’s future proof. Why didn’t you listen?
Brody Murphy
Yes, was the worst character in the game for a month
Jordan Lopez
End game isnt dps check
Got 2 pyro ? Got 2 cyro ? Got healer that aint barbara ?
you pass
Josiah Jones
Is Diona's shield similar to Xinyan's in that regard, ie. only a one-time cleanse? I keep seeing comments comparing Zhongli and Diona shields but I don't trust R*ddit takes.
Enviosity cleared Abyss 12 without any cleanses (Anemo Traveler, Amber, Noelle, Barbara, Xiangling, Lisa, Kaeya) but I'd imagine most people are actually spending some primogems to roll on stuff.
Joseph Jackson
I mean, fire slimes are a key sign that mihoyo is not afraid to completely invalidate some characters in fights
I wouldnt be surprised if down the line, venti would be completely useless by enemies designed to counter wind succ bull shit
>klee better than diluc Maybe against a dummy but on field use diluc is still better. >non mob floors Who cares about bosses when the current bosses are all pushovers and the endgame where you need minmax autism are all mob floors? Venti still shreds resistance, does good sub dps dmg and refills energy against bosses.
Ryder Hill
Only a month? I guess Zhongli probably doesn't have anything to worry about then.
Jaxson White
Venti is already effectly made useless because bigger enemies don't get trapped in his bull shit.
Easton Brooks
Already happened. Fatui skirmishes and other elites don’t get succed. It’s not an automatic win button in every situation, just most of them.
Anthony Bell
At least fire slime don't have shield like cyro one
Jacob Ward
Zhongli is unironically better than C0 Diluc.
Diluc sucks ass worse than most 4s until you get his constellations yet people weren't screaming about him needing buffs
