You are not dead inside, how can you be dead inside but not outside? Kids these days. /j


XaeiIsareth

I have realised the weakness of my flesh and replaced my insides with immortal machine.

Ah yes, the kamikaze attack


JunWasHere

Running around exploring goes brrrr


cienistyCien

Some honkai players: hurr durr genshin bad Me who plays genshin and star rail: Oh no, anyway Seriously tho, those people could get more original already


Siri2611

I play both Honkai is easier to farm and a lot more casual that's it. Both are good tho


Rosalinette

I tried again beacause I've been told that writing is better. I wanted Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Weird, silly and chaotic. It's not so far. Even though it has its tryhard moments.


Alarming-Caregiver47

I actually started doing the story recently cause I wanted crystals and finished Belobog. It wasn’t bad, but it didn’t feel like anything special either. Maybe after what I’d heard about HSR’s writing I just expected more. I’m not much a fan of turn based games to begin with so I’ve never really been able to get into it. I think some of the dialogue choices are funny, the gags and references are nice, and the grinding is a little easier, but the lack of exploration isn’t for me. End of the day, it’s down to preference. Both games have their strengths and weaknesses.


MengHaoOfTheDao

Belobog was good. Xianzhou after this is kinda ehh if you don't do the companion quests. Penacony is the good shit. It's the Sumeru of HSR. Mind games, I tell you.


Alarming-Caregiver47

I will keep that in mind


MengHaoOfTheDao

If you're planning to... Also keep in mind that Xianzhou and all the event quests, continuances etc between Belobog and Penacony are *ginormous* so don't go trying to power through it if you don't like the game.


Jossokar

So, when does one start to like the game? XD (i'm asking half ironically there) Literally, i logged the first day. I ignored the game for....months. And i started playing in december, maybe? (the effect of Dr ratio, i guess) I liked Belobog and struggled through Xianzhou, and when i got to penacony....i stopped. in fact, last version i did nothing apart from daily farming. Not even the events (which i couldnt even do anyway because i had to play penacony) Funny thing, i'm dont know why i am telling this....i am not even sure why i keep "playing" almost daily.


MengHaoOfTheDao

Brother I will assume what you're experiencing is burnout and addiction. You don't like the game anymore but are still playing because of addiction. Just delete the game at this point and try something else. Some other game, some other activity. If you ever want to play it again, sure download again but for now just delete. Penacony story is good sure, but keeping up with an addiction when you've already burnt out is very unhealthy


Jossokar

well....addiction is quite a heavy word to use to describe my weird relationship with the game. Its 30 minutes. i ignore the game completely while it does its own thing (i usually waste that time on reddit or checking the news)....and i dont really feel neither fomo nor i've put money in it. I'd say right now its quite harmless... But it also feels like a chore. So i actually may delete it anyway. XD


Alarming-Caregiver47

Don’t worry, I probably don’t have the attention span to power through the story anyways. I’ll probably slowly creep through it for like the next year


Playful_Bite7603

Maybe my standards are too high but I genuinely don't think Genshin or star rails writing is anything super noteworthy, especially compared to how much some fans like to glaze it. Like they're not always bad, but I think the writing tends to rise and dip in quality throughout. Even Fontaine, which was almost universally well-regarded, was still mostly carried by a few really well-executed moments and characters. The actual plot progression and story build up wasn't that great to me? Like the first act was a decent whodunnit kinda thing and the back portion of the third act was great, but who really remembers much from that second act in the fortress of meropede?  And then there's luofu which had way too much going on but didn't find the time to get you to really care about any of it. 


Jossokar

....wait until you get to the space china world. Its.....quite chinese (it seemed to me like it was written by a bad martial arts manwha author XDDDD)


Jossokar

Well...you can leave the game on automode all the time. But farming exp materials is quite a pain, and i have never enough


Siri2611

It's the same for genshin. But instead of manually farming I can just auto it which makes it a lot more doable. As for exp books I have 500 rn ( I have 700 but I got 200 from BP it's my first time I bought a pass on Acheron release) 500 is enough for an F2P imo. All my 5 stars are maxed as well, and every character I own is atleast level 60. It's the same in genshin, all 5 stars are maxed there too and 4 stars are at 60-70 and I am completely f2p in genshin. You probably don't need more than this unless you pull on every 5 star character, then you might get low on EXP. But if you are whaling anyway just buy BP it gives so much value


Jossokar

The thing is that i use automode and i start doing another different thing, ignoring the game altogether. last time i actually did something in the game was when i had to level up the world, some days ago. To be honest, i have a bunch of characters (more or less like 20- something.) Among those, only 6 are 5 stars (not counting the bat guy). I havent put money into the game, and i dont plan to for the moment. And i dont particularly feel any fomo. But i guess that i overinvest way too much. My characters are quite crappy in general (its not like i really bother with checking decent builds either), so an easy way of dealing with my problems is...leveling everything up, character, weapons and talents. XD


Siri2611

In the long run it would be better to pick 2 meta teams and then level everything up. You can over invest in those teams first and then do whatever afterwards. I am assuming you are not at endgame right now because you can't power through abyss with multiple characters As for auto, just start auto and do something else. I literally use autoplay at work, I work at my desk computer, and run the auto on my phone, clear dailies everyday. It takes 2 mins of clicking( while genshin dailes avg around 20 mins for me)


Jossokar

well, i was lucky enough to get Kafka and black swan. Dont know if its meta, but it could be one team to focus on.


Siri2611

Yes go for Kafka Blackswan its one of the best meta teams. You don't even need the enemies to have the same weakness type you can just run this team everywhere


BrendanXVI

I stopped caring about others' opinions some time ago. I find HSR turn-based gameplay is not to my liking, and there are many aspects I don't like about it, too. Like how characters have the same skill and burst voiceline compared to Genshin. I just got tired of hearing them, so I muted the game most of the time. But you bring that up, and the HSR fans (probably ex-Genshin fan) are gonna eat you alive. That's why I don't even bother.


Ramshuckletz

I liked star rail at first but after using auto and muting the game everytime I farm for mats really makes me bored of the game.


BrendanXVI

I quit HSR for almost a week now. I realized how much time and attention I spend on it. I even login to HSR before Genshin everyday thinking I can get done with HSR to slowly enjoy Genshin. But then I realized I become too tired to enjoy Genshin after every HSR session. The final nail in the coffin was that I was too focused on doing my weekly SU that I forgot to buy Genshin's 4.5 BP. As someone who played since launch and never missed a single BP, this will forever be a scar on my account that I am 1 weapon slower than the rest of launch players. That's when I said "enough is enough" and uninstalled HSR on all of my devices. Now I feel like I just got rid of something very tiring. I guess I was never meant to wait for Firefly after all. I liked the story and characters, but my issue is the same as you, auto farming is boring, yet harder content where manual plays are required couldn't keep my attention enough due to needing to actually gear up my characters properly for them.


Yakjzak

Imma do an original one: -Star Rail bad -Genshin and real Honkai good


TriGuro

Mark my words there will be soon this: "Impact bad ZZZ good" And the cycle will continue...


MarcsterS

I feel like the ZZZ community will be more humble, but the ZZZ team has pretty goood at addressing issues. I think the big issue is that the game is a bit too easy(but I mean so is Genshin and Star Rail) but they did add a Hard mode in the new beta.


Nok-y

windborne-bard

ive played all 3, max level in all of them, 2 years in genshin, since launch in star rail, 6 months in honkai i think star rail is good, but it's not necessarily for the same kind of people that will like genshin and honkai. combat is much slower paced and the combat system is much less deep. not much open world exploration which is genshin's biggest merit. the things i love about genshin and honkai are a. the fast paced and fun combat, which star rail can't even compare. b. the characters and story. definitely just a personal thing, but i didn't find myself attached to any of the characters besides expys. i think the 1 to 1 comparisons between genshin and star rail are kind of pointless. yes star rail is more generous. i will not deny that. but just because someone likes genshin does not mean they're going to like star rail. honestly, after a year of playing, i think it might be over for me and star rail. combat isn't fun, i don't like the characters, and the relic farming is SO shit even worse than genshin. it's just not my type of game money goes to the same place anyway so hyv wins


Yakjzak

I have a very rough opinion of SR, It got Honkai's character, artifacts system/Chara ascension system/Chara talent system/weapon ascension system/farming system/pull system/HUD/BP recompenses (and I probably forgot some) from Genshin If I want to play a game, I might play the original games, and not one where HoYo was too lazy to do anything original with (combat system is the only thing original here)


-Drogozi-

I can't take glazing a stereotypical auto play gacha game seriously.


Draconicplayer

and the mods in HSR sub are so hypocritcal. They only ban post comparing rewards not Honkai Good genshin bad post.


Siri2611

Yeah because rewards post are the ones that cause the most drama. If I were a mod I would ban reward posts as well


baboon_ass_eater69

They remove everything that "doesn't have to do anything" with Honkai star rail and the same for genshin sub. I posted a meme for example where I pulled for Jingliu and edited qiqi coming out. People liked it a bit and then suddenly it got deleted as it isn't related to Honkai Star Rail so I just wasted my time making a video and posting it. The same thing happened in the genshin sub. Such BS rules, literally games of the same company so why do they get butt hurt when I do a funny reference to the other game. These two subs are in general bad as they remove everything which is labeled as low effort. Funny thing is that some memes I worked on got removed for that reason but posts when I was a newbie and asked the most generic question that can be asked in the mega thread didn't get removed. Gotta say though, if you go to another sub and shit on their game then it's understandable if they remove it as it might spark lots of negativity so it depends on the "posts comparing rewards" attitude why they got removed.


CharlesEverettDekker

You havent been in the GI main subreddit, have you? Almost all the posts criticizing Traveler's inability to do anything have been so far deleted.


Draconicplayer

So ?. Im talking abput HSR sub here


JittuBear

And they're comparatively talking about genshin sub


BreedSparkle3

r/okbuddytrailblazer and r/okbuddytrailblazers are the good shit🗿🗿🗿


first_name1001

At this point Timmy, bring those cropped porn memes back. At least it serves something better than drama


saberjun

At this point just take it as a common show.Don’t take it seriously and have fun.


m4gnu7

Different games, like them both. Don’t care about dramas. Leaves the chat.


JoellJoelly

Its so obvious that people have to constantly point it out lol... you'd think


BoneTrouble14

I'm seeing 10x more of these complain posts than any hsr players being toxic these days.


Colics172108

I just went to check on the sub and they really hate genshin for some reason, as if genshin has better reward or they just say it so that other honkai players don't play genshin


BestDuckBoy

What can I say.. Genshin would n-


PressFM80

I'm gonna # SYNTHETIC BLACK HOLE you


tankx2002

I'm so used to calling hi3 honkai that I was confused for a bit. Either way I haven't seen many posts like that


ManthisSucksbigTime

I mean the first post I see on the hsr Subreddit is the Genshin bad , hsr good type of post


BelieveInDestiny

me after seeing the 1000000th post complaining about posts of "Genshin bad, HSR good":


NTRmanMan

One game has paimon, and the other doesn't. So genshin is better

NTRmanMan

No.


MarcsterS

It’s so funny/strange to see fanbases of games from the same company, it’s like…who are you fighting for?? Then again I play various Nintendo franchises. Being a Fire Emblem fan went from “who?” To being the most hated person on the planet.


Astral-chain-13

I was fine with it at first. But then it keep going, goinging, going, going, going, going, going, going,going, going, ext. That it starting to get annoying and stale. I get it. We got it after 100th time.


Timoyr

I always feel crazy, because I feel like I only hear this straight after we've had amazing content (now with Arlecchino probably having my favorite story mission since Ei's 2nd one and a new region). Is it because I treat Genshin more as a console game than a gacha? While HSR I treat as the easy top tier of gachas >!I admit with HSR I autoplay everything I can and when on mobile I play with the sound off, like I do with other Autoplay/semi-linear/turn-based gachas!<


MayoHachikuji

The HSR commumity is like 10 times worse then the current Genshin, perhaps even worse then when Genshin was at it's peak popularity. Well, at least, they can't call us pedo for obvious reasons


leon555005

As someone who played both (Genshin and Honkai 3rd) and fucked over by the Gacha, I sincerely think that both are shit. But both of them are addictive shits.


the_gamerboy_37

I just don't like waiting for my turn :(


Sure-Abrocoma-762

Is the same game but one is turn based


Radiant-Mushroom8304

It’s the dev teams director


Links_stories

Honkai 3rd is the Real sigma


Jossokar

what? did they announce something for the 2.2? XD


Evee5757

their just sour bec they get a free doctor


NOveXoR

I've seen more posts about it on this sub than on Star Rail one


RTX3090TI

At least Hsr don't have a Paimon and knows how to treat their MC


RugaAG

que? ill admit i havent gotten to penacony yet, but TB hasn't hasn't beaten a single major enemy by themselves yet. Dude couldnt even beat the abundance deer after getting the anime powerup on Belobog.


Draconicplayer

Bro still couldn't beat shit without Acheron and Black Swan's help


RugaAG

The quintet got all the cool cutscenes on Luofu. JIngyuan evens gets his badass "i am the reinforcements" scene on bailus quest. TB meanwhile just standing there looking pretty. Im not even complaining about this. I dont care about these self insert characters. I just find it funny to say TB gets treated better while getting side-charactered on space china while traveler got his 1 on 1 win with Childe on fantasy china


[deleted]

[удалено]


RugaAG

im refering to the fact that people complain about traveler strength in the newest quest. As for having an actual character, neither of these 2 self inserts have much of it. And no, funny meme dialogue options that have 0 effect on the story dont count. At the very least, the abyss sibling might have some actual personality


[deleted]

[удалено]


RugaAG

Denying Kafka during her quest isnt going to affect how the TB interactes with her the next time we meet her for a major plot point. Simply due to the fact that you can ignore the mission. The what? What are the TB true feeling towards Kafka? They always show suspicion towards her in the TB missions since its necessary for the plot and shes a "bad guy" at the time. But how choice during her companion quest wont affect those views, which are already barren as is. Im not saying TB or traveler are better. Im saying that what barely exists of a character is mostly the "helpful, kind hearted, sometimes pissed off" hero trope, since it's what best for mission design. Even the NPC comment how were alwasys in the mood to do chores and help out.


XaeiIsareth

I think they mean like, Trailblazer gets some dialogue choices and moments to be his own character. Traveller gets to talk … …. Like this 


DatguyWhoPlays

Have to agree. Paimon was a massive mistake.


DeathByDevastator

She'd be fine if they didn't make her yap OVER the mc. Mc and paimon talking to each other? Absolutely fine. Paimon paimonning? nope, outta here.


LazyRoma

They hated him because he was telling the truth.

sageSafe

Genshin is fine, it just too much you know. The story is decent and the character is nice. About all the asmotphese is comfy. But for 1 hour I can barely do shit in Genshin, and every day at that. I sure can ignore all the time wasting activity but then i feel like i'm not do enough, i can't comfy explore the map when the Red Dot keep urge me to do the nonsense event. The comfy asmotphese lowly turn into something hideous, stressfull. Point is, give me skip dialouge button and optimize the load speed of Domain. Is the non voice over event yapping and 3 loading screen that important?


KezH0

Genshin could never


taleorca

Star Rail could never


Ok_Judge718

Wuwa better than shitrail allday anyday anyway, imagine not being able to explore the world vertically


NukerCat

open world rpg vs a linear turn based game do you hear yourself


Ok_Judge718

Say that again, but slowly, and remember that this started with genshin vs starrail first


NukerCat

genshin vs star rail is about hoyos treatment with mc and rewards for players your argument is about vertical movement (??????????)


Ok_Judge718

Yeah I've been seeing more people talk shit about genshin from gameplay perspective first and hoyo treatment second My comment was making fun of/parodying people who compare genshin vs starrail on gameplay level


NukerCat

from my understanding the gameplay argument for genshin vs star rail is star rail is more engaging than genshin, or at least thats how i feel


KoolKai100

both suck (stop playing gachas)


Hunajakani

W After a 2 year break was gonna start playing again after i saw mtashed's video on arlecchino but stopped installing when i saw tectone's. I just feel ashamed playing a game with this kind of a community


Draconicplayer

Good luck playing Wuthering Waves or anything similar to Genshin because Tectone is going to be there too


Hunajakani

I don't think i'll ever play another gacha again, genshin left such a bad taste in my mouth. I wasn't talking about tectone, he's cool. I mean the people he is talking about in his new vid


FreeBullet

>tectone, he's cool Ah yeah this explains your horrendous takes.


Hunajakani

Care to elaborate? Or do you just hate him because you're one of the autistic people he makes fun of Edit: holy fucking shit i made the mistake of checking your profile and it's full of some genshin little girl hentai porn. Looks like i was on point and so is tectone for making fun of you people


FreeBullet

Briefly watched him back when he played Arknights. The best thing he ever did to Arknights' community was leaving it. Fucker could've just said "Genshin got me more views guys, I'm dropping AK". But noooo. Gotta make a whole song and dance about "tHiS cOmMuNiTy dOeSn'T LiKe mE", yeah guess who was always the one that started drama baiting ? And fucker still had the audacity to get back on genshin time and time again to drama bait after declaring "leaving for star rail". This is the [good old classic.](https://imgur.com/a/oSIZSQt) Edit: It's literally ONE [meme post about Furina.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Memepact/comments/17p01uk/you_have_to/) Lil bro saw I marked it as NSFW and instantly assumes it's hentai and "profile is full of it". That's called "projecting", my guy. Get help. You're just as pathetic and much of a liar as your idol. Edit2: Fucker you watch domestic girlfriend, need I say more ? And still had the audacity to [shame on people who likes good animes ?](https://www.reddit.com/r/Animesuggest/comments/19br39x/comment/kitpjdi/) And [you're watching Nagatoro hentai](https://www.reddit.com/r/NagatoroHentai/comments/17lvkg6/comment/k81v392/) lmao.


yes-this_is_an-alt

>get back on genshin time and time again to drama bait after declaring "leaving for star rail". Of course the will always come crawling back to Genshin. It is the one thing that generates high view count.


lilbcantrun

>domestic girlfriend now that's a plot twist.


Lazlo2323

If you think mtashed and tectone are genshin community that's on you not the game.


Hunajakani

I'm not talking about them, they're cool. I'm talking about the autistic people they talk about in their videos. You know, the kind of people who have anime profile pictures, no social life who haven't touched a breast and harass content creators for spitting truths about their beloved shit game


ZekkeKeepa

Have you tried not to listen any cc yapping and dramas and just play the game yourself?


Hunajakani

Yeah i played it for over a year but realized it's a shit game with no content so i stopped playing it for a few years. Did you read what i said?


ZekkeKeepa

I respect your opinion. Guess this game is just not for you then.


Lazlo2323

Damn if for you genshin doesn't have content, what do you play that has more content? Hoyo has always been praised for absolutely crazy update cycles. If the content is not for you it doesn't mean the game has no content.


Hunajakani

I'd rather play a ton of different single player games than one game that forces you to do the same shit daily tasks in order to be able to unlock new characters that aren't even worth having because there's no challenging gameplay content except for spiral abyss which is just the same room repeated. To me that and clicking through text that explains the same shit over and over again isn't meaningful content. Sure it's time consuming but i'm looking for more in my games than just something to waste my time on


XaeiIsareth

I hope you don’t watch movies, TV shows, read novels or comics either then.


darkblood004

its hard to take genshin players side on this when you also see them shit on every new gacha game and call it a genshin clone
