Genshin Impact Game Reviews

How I feel. I’m just going get to the point I love genshin and the story but the fact that ya’ll have all these different regions with new cultures in each of them like Natlan and Sumeru and your telling me you can’t even add at least one dark skin character?? And I don’t mean an essence of a tan or slightly tanned type character I MEAN A RICHLY MELANATED character. Why is it ya’ll have a whole “Nigerian” based character and he’s not even SLIGHTLY tanned nah the man is white as paper these are characters you’re basing off of from people’s cultures and if you can give the enemies darker skin and locs why can’t you give it to actual characters??. See ya’ll have the colors in stock but ya’ll not using them why?? I promise you if ya’ll were to make a dark skin character a lot of people would be wishing. I haven’t even been playing the game as much but I told myself If I see a dark skin character I’m logging back on and farming. Why because it would be very surprising and shocking to see darker character from ya’ll. That being said I feel a lot of these characters could of had darker skin not even just in sumeru and natlan dark skin poc are national you could genuinely have a dark skin character in monstadt just because its based off of Germany doesn’t mean you can’t have poc there it’s called being diverse 🙌🏼. Which ya’ll have down when it comes to different regions but ya’ll aren’t potraying diversity with darker skin tones which is honestly not a good look for Genshin.

Playing For Two Years. I have been playing Genshin for two years and I love this game so much. I have played with both family and friends and they still play and are enjoying it. There is so much to do like daily commissions, fighting bosses or enemies, or leveling up characters. When not doing those things you can do some of the many quests, archon quests, story quests, or world quests. All the different quests can give you rewards from large amounts of primogems (the items used for getting different characters and weapons) to mora (the currency in the game) and exp books. The characters in Genshin are also amazing, from their design to play style and lore there is so much to learn about them. Like the traveler that you play as, the differences between them (I used them because you pick between Aether, the boy and Lumine, the girl). The different places you get to go like Mondstadt, the nation of anemo and freedom is based of Germany. You can see the references in the lore, architecture, and nature there. This game always has so much to do even at higher ars ( ar stands for adventurer rank)! This game is like a must play for people that like gacha and/or anime games. If you do or even don’t like Genshin you can always try some of HoYoVerses other games, like their newest one Honkai: Star Rail!

Amazing Game, but…. I adore this game, the controls are easy, there’s a lot to learn but it’s made fun with balanced rewards and a lot to explore! I play the game every night together with my family and we make it a family thing, I’ve even recommended the game to my friends. That’s where I run into my own personal issue, the storage space bug. I have to assume it’s a bug of some kind because I recommended the game to my best friend who had shown interest in becoming a player. However, even after buying extra phone storage space, restarting their phone, deleting and reinstalling the app, quite literally everything I can think of, it still won’t let my friend download the full game. They can play the demo and load it up, but it gets to about 55% before it pops up a Insufficient Storage Space Error: 9005. I know the game is hefty, I mean, the map is huge and all interactive with multiple levels. That’s part of the appeal to me, but the only thing that makes sense is that it’s a bug preventing her from downloading the game. Until this is fixed, I unfortunately cannot give it a full five stars. If anytime has any idea how to fix this, please let me know! I adore this game and I want to get a lot more people to play it, but it makes me a bit nervous knowing that them not even being able to download the full game will be a factor in whether or not they play.

Astounding.. I never usually play these kinds of games. Lately even, I’ve been playing things like Escape from Tarkov and have been fiddling around in Conan Exiles. But this game is insane. Maybe I’m crazy, but at first I thought it would be one of those overcrowded mmo’s with a poorly written story but I have been and stayed intrigued in even side quests! The music is beautiful, the way it was written so well for all the different places and events, I love the effort they put into it. Graphics are pretty good, they’re not intended to be top of the line realistic or anything so for the type of game it is, the graphics are quite beautiful. This is a game where you’re not required to pay to play (of course, it makes things easier), despite it being free. You can actually earn currency and things such as primogems just from quests and exploring, and leveling up becomes really difficult after a while but it’s obviously still possible. The game is all around easy to grasp and the characters are each unique and well made. I’ve been glued to this game for the past few weeks and that’s saying something for myself. I usually like a game for a couple days and throw it away. But this, I haven’t played a game this much since Divinity II and Ark. I really love everything that has been put into this game and can’t wait to see where it goes.

OMG IM SO HAPPY TO PLAY. So normally I would get rid of a game after a month when I can get a new game but this is one of the first games that I have kept. I love this game is it so awesome and really enjoyable! It takes my mind off everything bad in life and I love chilling in my room playing. I feel like I am actually in the game! Genshin Impact is one of the best games in my life! Natlan has really got my mind set on Primogems currently and I love all the beautiful sights in Natlan. I think it is the best land that the developers have made! I also love that you can teleport to certain places. In some of my other games you have to run there but on Genshin you can teleport to the nearest Waypoint and then a sort distance to the place. I never had a game that I love so much I can write about it! There is one thing I would like the developers to change (if you don’t agree with me developers, it’s okie). What does bug me about the game is that sometimes you have to complete one quest to finish another and I get bugged about the sometimes so if you could change that, thanks! Overall I love this game so much and I do recommend it to everyone! (Do beware parents, if your uncomfortable with your kid(s) playing because of some of the outfits then you might want to supervise them) Thank you for reading!

Amazing.. This game is really addicting, and really fun to play! The graphics are absolutely wonderful, and the character’s outfits and personalities are really great too! The amount of effort put into this game is astonishing, and in my opinion the game itself has no problem to it, except for the fact that it does take up a lot of storage, but that isn’t something that could be helped, and in my opinion it was worth it. I really love how the game is actually playable even if we don’t pay money, since in some games, we might have to pay money to unlock some things, but we don't necessarily need money in this game to get a lot of characters, since the game already gave many ways to earn primo gems! I was also looking over the 1 star ratings, and I thought that they were all ridiculous, with most of them just asking for a certain character. I do think that it would be great if MiHoyo can make some clarifications if there is a “canon” MC, since there has been a few people who think that Aether is the canon MC, while others believe that there is no canon MC. It would be great if we can actually get a response from the developers about this situation instead of people continuously debating on the canon MC. Anyway, thank you for you time reading this review, have a wonderful day/night!

my favorite game ever! 我最喜欢的游戏！. This game is really attractive to me, especially the plot. As a plot party, whether it is the shaping of the characters in this game, the direction of the plot, the layout of the environment or the big world view, it is almost perfect for me, and the sense of substitution is also good. Very strong, it makes me feel as if I have really entered this world, and experienced adventures with so many partners with different personalities but full of strengths and positive energy. I really hope that this game will continue to win more awards, but it is also sincere I hope that the final ending and plot of this game can make people get what they want, and don’t create too much sadness. Maybe I invested too much, but when I think that maybe any one or even more partners who have experienced so much with me in the end will do it for "I My heart aches when I sacrifice my wish and protect this world. Thanks again for the game genshin impact and the production team behind genshin impact (including the dubbing team, director, planning, etc.), thank you! 这个游戏真的非常吸引我，尤其是剧情，作为一名剧情党，不管是这个游戏中角色的塑造，剧情的走向，环境的布置或是大世界观于我而言都近乎于完美，代入感也很强，让我感到仿佛我真的进入了这个世界，和那么多性格迥异却都充满优点和正能量的伙伴们一同经历冒险，真的很希望这个游戏继续斩获更多的奖项，但是也是由衷的希望这个游戏最后的结局和剧情能够让人如愿以偿一点，不要制造过多伤感，也许是我投入过多，但一想到也许最后和我一起经历这么多的任何之一甚至更多伙伴会为了“我”的愿望和守护这个世界而牺牲时我就会心痛，再次感谢genshin impact这个游戏以及genshin impact背后的制作团队（包括配音团队以及导演，策划等等），感谢！感谢原神

Better than Breath of the Wild. I know that title sounds very questionable, but this game is amazing. Firstly, it’s free to play which is really shocking because the graphics, character designs, and overall how nicely the game runs is excellent quality. For BotW I had to pay $60 and didn’t even play for more than 2 hours, but Genshin Impact is completely free! Paying for primogems is completely optional and doesn’t effect gameplay at all. Second, the storyline is very intriguing. Some may argue that once you get to high Adventure Ranks and wait for the story to be updated it can be boring, I disagree. There are plenty of commissions and quests to keep you entertained. Plus, there are domains, bosses, spiral abyss, and events! Another thing is the characters. Each character is unique, has a fantastic design, and interesting gameplay. Seeing a character in a quest has me saving primogems for their banner every time! Speaking of design, Teyvat is such a large and beautiful world. Sometimes I just walk around and take it the sights. The songs, the view, it can be an action packed liar or a tranquil mountain. In conclusion, Genshin Impact is definitely worth the download and it’s completely free, in fact it’s probably one of the best games out there and my personal favorite. Download Genshin Impact, it’s absolutely worth it.

It could be a bit easier.. So first problem is getting the materials, you can either buy them ONCE at souvenir shops only once, there’s never going to restock, which is a stupid idea if you’re gonna put them there. You can’t choose what day to get those materials you need, you have to wait every other day for them. Upgrading characters and weapons is already hard as it is, like getting something from a boss and it taking it forever to get the boss gone. Getting materials is so hard I can’t even level up without having the mobs being a higher lvl than me. Second, it’s so hard to do a story and world quest because all the jobs to get rid of the mobs are hard because they’re a higher lvl, like I can’t even finish one story quest or even archon quest without having to quit them because they’re just that hard, and it takes the fun out of it. I may sound like I’m complaining but even my friends agree, and it just brings our mood down. I do enjoy the stories but get upset because I have to quit them just because I’m not able to remove a mob. I still enjoy each day and still have fun on it because of small little jobs to do, but even they are sometimes hard. I still do enjoy I like the character designs, and the elements and can’t wait till more new things, more characters, more places. But those are the main problems for me.

Amazing Game but this company is being greedy. I absolutely love this game and have spent more than I would like to admit on it. It’s one of my all time favorite games. That being said this anniversary they showed up that they do not not care about their fans with the rewards they gave. Worse yet is their silence and deleting of comments they don’t like so I guess I’ll give a bad review even though I love their product. in addition they have released a character who clearly needed more time in the oven and looks like they don’t play their own game when designing. They have changed the skill descriptions after players summoned a character to fit their narrative on why it doesn’t work with certain things. In the year I have been playing endgame has been non existent and most of what you do is chores to get your meager amount of currency to get stuff and get better and better artifacts that there is nothing requiring you to be so well built . I highly recommend this game if you want a good casual phone game that can be played on other devices. That being said know this company doesn’t respect you are your time with them. They will always give you the bare minimum resource wise. I did not want to make a bad review but at this point they are not listening to their fans and actively silencing people. Edit : they ended up giving some extra rewards so I’ll give them back a couple stars

One of the best. This is one of the best games I have ever played, mobile or otherwise. The game is beautiful, the music is spectacular, the acting is decent, the game has interesting systems and mechanics, has interesting and highly customizable equipment/stats and has a great curve for learning to build and balance a party. The exploration is amazing and rewards you for paying attention to your surroundings. Sometimes the tangible rewards are lacking in uniqueness, but the feeling of solving the puzzle or finding a random boss fight is great. I hope for true boss encounters in the future and larger dungeons, but this is a game I will be coming back to for years. The whole story can be beaten with free characters and items, and a decent amount of premium currency is given for playing the game to allow you to acquire a few more characters. If you want to get into the optional content most is possible for free, but paying allows you to have more fun and a more tailored party with better synergy. Seeing my first 5-star character’s ultimate ability for the first time was amazing. It felt like I was setting the whole battlefield on fire. That said, it is a long and involved game and can feel somewhat daunting. It is mostly single player and I really wish multiplayer was in a better place, because my friends really just wanted co-op.

Such a Great Game. I’ve never enjoyed games where you do quests and have a major storyline, but this game is SO GOOD. The stories are amazing, as are the characters, and all of it meshes together to make it an awesome game. The animation is top-notch. I was always so amazed at how they add even the smallest details, like how when you go up stairs the characters slow down. The elements the characters have adds a whole level to the game, but they didn’t copy it the way others have. Each character has a unique part of that element when they use it. The world is such an amazing place, and as you travel along, you feel like you’re actually discovering a new world. The pulling characters system is such a great idea, and while I get very frustrated if I can’t get the character I want, it’s really exciting to get it when I do. The multiplayer system is such a great option as well, and it lets you help other players or get help from people. The game being FREE is just another aspect that gets it so much support from me. While you can buy items in the shop, there’s absolutely no reason you need to buy things in the game other than to get them easier. All in all, just play it. A lot of different people enjoy this game, and if you’re reading this, you’re probably considering downloading the game, so please do.

AMAZING. AMAZING! I’ve been playing this game for about a year and a half now, and it’s became my favorite game (might just be because I don’t play many games, but still). The storyline is- *chefs kiss 👌* AMAZING. I especially liked the Mondstaft archon quest, I dunno why, maybe it’s just because Mondstaft is every players first reason and it just feels right. All the events are amazing too! My favorite events are the character theme song ones (I’ve mastered Zhongli’s theme song). Don’t even get me started on the characters either. Venti being- okay well no spoilers but those who know know- but also being so laid back because those are his morals and what he’s supposed to do. I love Venti because I read the manga and the first few chapters with that red-head are amazing. I also really like KAZUHAAAAAA! Unfortunately, no spoilers on his lore. I love how there are requirements for the visions, cool detail which I think makes a lot of sense. I love the fighting style too, tbh the reactions make a lot of sense (-Someone who has no idea how to do reactions). Anyways, ima end it here because if I keep going I’m gonna accidentally spoil something. To sum it up, I give it a solid 8/10. I didn’t state the flaws, but there isn’t that many so I didn’t feel I need to. If you wanna see the flaws, find out for yourself. Bai!

Don’t Listen to the Bad Reviews of the Entitled. Amazing game! Started playing just a few weeks ago and it is very addicting! I am almost overwhelmed with the amount of content and things for me to do! The art and graphics are absolutely breathtaking and the combat and gameplay are for the most part exciting and fun. Sure, the gacha drop-rates are not the best, but there are certain guarantees so it’s still very possible to get good drops with enough time and work. Recently, people have been bombarding the game with poor reviews due to the 1st Anniversary events that are going on right now; the rewards they are offering are apparently not living up to fans’ high expectations. They are offering 10 free wishes as log-in rewards as well as a festival event where you can track down chests and defeat monsters in order to obtain a good number of primogems and items. In addition, they recently sent the first of four thank you messages to all players that came with a sizable 400 primogems and a new glider skin. Still, many fans are not happy with their rewards and have resorted to writing bad reviews of the game, which is just immature and wrong. I personally stand by miHoYo’s rewards—it’s their game and they are free to do what they want with it…we should be grateful to have gotten the rewards we did!

My Favorite Game. I never write reviews but this game deserves 5 stars and it especially does now that spoiled brats are rating the game 1 star just because a free game didn’t give them a tesla for anniversary. I also never spend money on games but this was the first game that made me want to spend money because it is that good and I feel like the company deserved it. You can enjoy this game entirely for free though and still get lots of cool 5 star characters and weapons. You will get tons of primogems (currency used to get the rarest weapons and characters) just by doing quests, achievements, and having fun playing the game. Gacha system aside, Genshin has stunning graphics and an even better soundtrack. They consistently release a new major update to the game every 40 days so you will never be bored. I’m still in awe that this masterpiece which is now my favorite game was free right from the beginning. Anyone complaining about anniversary rewards should remember how generous Mihoyo is already… Seriously it’s a multi-platform game with free major updates every 40 days and they still give tons of primogems to us. People who compare Mihoyo to EA obviously haven’t played EA games. If they were like EA, Genshin would cost $60 and every update would be DLC instead of free AND we’d have to buy Genshin 22 for $60 the next year💀

Thank you.. Dear developers, I’d like to start by thanking you for such an amazing game. I’ve learnt a lot of things in the game, the culture, traditions and style of each regions which represent specific locations in the world, my english dictionary has grown quite a lot, as well as Japanese. I’ve learnt a lot about other peoples’ troubles and how everyone solves their problems so I can use the knowledge in real life. The game also makes my day, it brings joy to me everytime I start my computes or phone and I see the Genshin icon. So again, thank you for the delightful experience.💞 On the other hand tho, as you’ve already seen from the other reviews and considering your 4.4 star rating (which will likely change depending on your next anniversary rewards), you most definitely have to bump up the amount of rewards we receive, especially Primogems. Its extremely hard to defeat some bosses to gain certain materials for some people, and by giving us more Primogems, we’ll be able to receive more characters and beat enemies and monsters rather more easily, which is also good for you because people might stress about it, get angry and leave a bad review, and even quit. Thank you for reading, please take the last recommendation into consideration, thank you.💞

Amazing but please read!. This game is by far, one of the most amazing games that I’ve played. They added so much detail into this game and the animations and real 3D motions are amazing. The updates, features of this game is simply the best along with beautiful characters that you grind for. If I were to make a suggestion, it’d be to have an alternative where you aren’t required to download everything from the start. The issue with the current version is that it’s required to download the full version once you get to a certain point and can’t play if you don’t have it downloaded. I’d love to keep playing in the level I’m currently at, but I’m running very low on storage space but I can’t play unless I download it which I can’t. Hopefully you will make an alternative way to play the game while saving a bit of storage. If you can make this happen, I will never ever even have to think about deleting genshin impact because its the best game I’ve ever played! P.S. Any chance you could make it available for Macbook players to download Genshin and not just PCs? I know the Macs might over heat but I’d love to be able to play on computer. (Partially because of the fact that my computer has more storage) Thank you so muchhhh! Keep doing amazing creating/developing your game!

Gorgeous, immersive, fun gameplay 💕. Believe the online hype—Genshin Impact is a gem in every area you can think of, and it’s singlehandedly raised my expectations for games to the sky. I actually can’t praise this game enough. The graphics and art are the best I’ve seen—being open world makes it even better—and the entire aesthetic down to the settings screen is super clean and pleasing to look at. Soundtrack is absolutely gorgeous as well! The characters are all so lovable (!!!) with beautiful designs. The actual gameplay is made unique and interesting by the option to have 4 party members you can switch between and an elemental reaction system (it doesn’t get boring). And aside from all that, what really surprised me was how invested I became in the story of the world. Everything is designed to add to the incredible worldbuilding, and it just creates an incredibly immersive experience. The only downsides I can think of are that it gets grind-y in late game and eats up a lot of your time (that’s an element in any RPG and to be expected) and that it takes up a huge chunk of space on your phone. Be careful about starting if you’re really busy, because the world totally sucked me in, especially since new content and events are constantly being released. :’)) All in all, please give this game a shot—there’s something in it for everyone!

Amazingly Written Game!. I’ve been playing Genshin Impact for 3 months now, and I’m AR 46, so I’d consider myself well versed with it. It has beautiful regions to explore and interesting characters to play with! I easily spend hours on it daily, and with Inazuma coming out in a few weeks, I’m very excited to keep playing! HOWEVER, this game is quite difficult to play as a mobile player. The controls themselves are not hard to maneuver, as I’m quite used to touch screen controls. The problem with this game is that it crashes very frequently. Though I have noticed the patterns on the times that it crashes, it is very bothersome and annoying as it disrupts my playing and adds up extra time on the loading screen. I still have about 10 extra GB of storage, my WiFi works perfectly fine, and my graphics settings have been set to the lowest, but every time i try to co-op domains, the game kicks me out. It’s frustrating and kind of embarrassing when you return to their world. This may be because of my own device and not the game, however crashing seems to be a frequent problem. Despite these technical issues however, I do recommend playing this game and giving it a shot! It is without a doubt one of the best ever created with so much detail and effort to make such a lively world! Thank you, Mihoyo :))

Amazing, but always room for improvement. This game is worth playing. Excellent adventure. I’ve even put money into this game which is unusual for me. Some things I want to recommend: 1. I like how you have the option to offload used data to free up space. If you already finished a bunch of missions with audio and video cut scenes, this is awesome. Instead of offloading, wouldn’t it be better to allow players to download things AS they play instead? I mean, some missions you can’t play to until later anyways. Also, sometimes player audio is annoying. I’m tired of listening to Bennet… 2. Also, great job on allowing the players to set the video settings for high or low based on their preferences and the way it helps prevent in-game lag. I’m playing on an older iPhone, and this helps!!! 3. An adjustable set of controls would help prevent me from pressing the wrong keys all the time too! 4. Pleeeeeease, work on your dialogue. I haven’t seen late-game dialogues, but early on it is terrible. You can literally skip 40+ pages of dialogue and complete the quests without having missed anything important. Not a joke. I enjoy the missions and backstory, but some of it is monotonous and pointless. 5. Sometimes farming domains for artifacts or talent materials, etc. is REALLY boring but basically required. I don’t enjoy it. I loathe it.

Amazing game but…. They desperately need to change the resin system. Up to about AR 45 it might not seem like a big deal but when you get to end game content it is really frustrating to have to wait over 20hrs for about 10-20min worth of game play which is often disappointing due to the RNG system. The RNG system wouldn’t be an issue if a very large amount of resin was available or a massive cut to the cost of basically everything that costs resin. I just want to play the game and have fun rolling the RNG system for artifacts but I can’t do that cause of the resin now that I’m AR 50. If they don’t fix this soon, this incredible game is going to fizzle out. Very limited game play mixed with low rewards in the end game will be this games demise. To Mihoyo who will probably never see this. This is bad business on your end. If someone can’t truly farm for an artifact or character/weapon experience, than why would they spend their money on a new character once they are AR 50 or higher? The process of acquiring the gear for a new character and leveling them and their gear up becomes a gigantic chore that takes away from the ability to increase any current character’s strength. eg: I didn’t bother rolling much for Eula and multiple other’s because I didn’t have the resources to level them up without holding back on the character’s I need to be stronger for spiral abyss.

I love this game so much. Genshin has something for everyone. I am an artist and musician and tech theater lover and it has literally all of those things. ( the tech was in the summer 2023 event. So fun!) the art is inspiring and gets me out of artist blocks. The music deserves every award it has gotten and more. It is not a hard game to do and is a good starter if you don’t really play RPG games. If you do play RPG games it is still great because you can play it to your own different styles and strengths. Like with the puzzles in events that really make you think. Every character is unique to fit people’s different play styles and the story’s are always a joy. I can not get over how good the writing is in this game!!!!! It is so beautiful and artfully done to convey the feeling of the story. And if you don’t like the quest your doing than just stop… the game is very chill and won’t make you feel like you have to finish anything. All in all it is a wonderful game that I think gets a lot of flack for no reason. There is one problem that has stood out to me since I started playing though. There is not a lot of diversity in the characters and I hope in Natlan ( next rejoin) they will change that. But still I recommend it to anyone who has read this far! Have fun playing ☺️☺️☺️☺️

I’m happy. Since the archon quest is almost fully minus three characters I’m happy that we got them so it’s better than having no voice at all. All this strike thing revolves around in one big problem and it’s Formosa Group Gaming obsession with AI. If you removed this problem then all the voice actors will finally come back and continue working again. I know a lot of people want me to change language however I refuse to do it cause it’s like walking away from the ongoing fight. I will never give on English as long as I live and Japanese is overrated. Oops I know that trolls will hate me for this but I gotta ask what will happen if it happens to Japanese with a studio acting the same way as Formosa Group being overly stubborn. After playing this game until January 21 because of the lantern rite which is going to be mostly muted sadly just like I did for nahidas birthday I will not participate on that event and I will do the same thing here too. I’m happy that ajaw voice returns so that’s definitely something. I hope everyone including the traveler will have voices again. I’m talking about English of course. Overall I’m happy that archon quest is safe for 3 characters unvoiced. Since I spoil myself on watching what happens next I’ll take my time. I’m also happy that I got pyro archon Mavuika but man I wish I got her for free instead of getting her through spending $100. Oh well I’m still happy. :)

Why are people rating this 1 star?!??. I don’t know why people are eating this game 1 star…it’s honestly an amazing role playing game- the graphics are to die for. The animation is clean. The details to character design and animation are so eye catching! The stories are creative and unique and every character has their own amazing story quest! All though everything needs it fixes I have 1 or 2- first in the beginning I had a hard time figuring out what artifacts and what weapons I should give my characters because I didn’t understand what “Dmg” “crit” and any of that stuff meant- so maybe a quick option in the corner to tell you how they work would be awsome! And if there already is one maybe make it more obvious! I’ve been playing the game for a year and I’m still stumped on this part of the game! Second…I feel really disappointed when I spend all my time farming primos for a character and don’t get the 5 star I want- I feel that there is no fix to this but I’m really really really hoping for venti this banner and I’m not aloud to spend money on games…so maybe more re-runs? Or make 50/50’s more easy to obtain a character because for people who can’t spend money in the game it’s really hard to get 5 stars and make a good team! So that’s my only request!

Recommend! Things you should know before downloading. Genshin Impact is an amazing game! I love the scenery and the character designs are so pretty! The combat is fun, and characters each have something unique and charming. Before downloading however, you should know that this game takes up A LOT OF SPACE. Many people are complaining about the download time and file size. Especially when downloading later along the road, the updates will pile up greatly. Make sure you have a device with lots of space for future updates. Secondly, many of you may have read about the game’s gacha system. You make ‘wishes’ to get new weapons and characters. When writing this review, I saw people rating this game 1 star because they spent money on the game but didn’t get the character they wanted, calling the game a scam, etc. However, this is not true. The game is enjoyable without making any payments. I am completely f2p, and I have gotten most of the characters I wish for. I have lost 50/50 twice to Qiqi and Keqing, but I’m glad I did, because they are wonderful additions to my team. This game isn’t made for people to dump their money on getting characters. You’re supposed to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the game and story. Hopefully you don’t get swayed by bad reviews, and hopefully you enjoy Genshin Impact (:

Amazing game ever!! but one problem.... Hello, so um I started playing this game for a week and a half and it’s very impressive to be honest. I love everything about it although there’s not much I can say because this game is already amazing as EVER, the animations of the characters are hella awesome but problem is when it gets to the animation part it lags and slows down the animation and the voices are still going on- and when I log in and start playing for like 5 to 10 Minutes it just restarts and I’m back in my background of my device I have this problem ever since I started Genshin Impact. I’ve played Honkai Impact as well but no problems with it. At the same time I’m also thinking if it’s just that something may be wrong with my device... I put it to 5 stars cause I love this game already even though it lags and crashes down for some reason I KNOW that you guys are improving everything about this game and that’s cool it’s just a bit frustrating because I kept going back and fourth log in and then out, I hope you guys can fix this problem sooner or later?.. but I’ll still keep playing Genshin Impact because I have already sell my soul to it lol ( I’m not good with feedbacks but hope this explains enough of my problem, I’m sure other people are having the same experience as me as well!.. ) and so thank you for reading this.

Absolutely Fantastic. People are calling this game “anime Legend of Zelda,” which is pretty much true. It is so fantastic and honestly I’m so in love with it. The storyline, combat, graphics, everything is great! The fact that you can switch characters to fight certain elements is something that I really like, especially with the really amazing voice acting that comes with it. I haven’t been this invested in a game in a while and I’m ready to play it through and through. I haven’t found any glitches yet so far so that’s Great! One thing I will say, though, is that I really am excited for this to come out on Xbox and the Nintendo Switch. I kind of hope it could come out on Mac but Mac has been kind of complicated recently and various games have been becoming incompatible with it due to new updates. I also would love it if mounts were a thing. Even if horses can’t be programmed into the game, at least a hoverboard or something that goes equally as fast as the running speed. This game, I understand, just got released so there’s still obviously more things to do, so I can’t wait to see what more there is to come! I love everything about this game, I forgot to say how glorious the music is, too, and I’m just honestly amazed. Anyways, weeb/geek rant over. I’m just too happy with this game.

Truly Stunning Mobile Game. I was on the fense about getting this game for a while until finally I decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly impressed to find out that not only were their advertisements true to the actual game (as most others simply lie), but the gameplay itself feels fully fledged. This is the sort of game you’d expect from a console, and I gotta say it’s nice to see the effort that went into this. The combat style is engaging and fun. I also love that while it sticks to the familiar mobile trend of having in-app purchases, the game itself was free and my experience has thus far not been dampened despite the fact that I have not spend a single penny on it. It has given me little need to do so, and that’s awesome. I must also note that I am playing this on a more powerful phone as I understand that others have complained about lag, and I don’t blame them, this game file is HUGE, but is you are fortunate enough to experience a lag-free gameplay, (if not something close to it) then it really is beautiful. As mentioned before, the advertisements you see about this game are true. I loved hearing the side stories of the characters, as well as their own tutorials on how to use them. Very well done. I hope they stay true to this for the times ahead. Also, Paimon is adorable and NOT food!😜 (To each their own😉)

HAD to get to Inazuma. Good game but I wish Hoyoverse would add something like a market you could go to to get character ascending materials from different regions a player hasn’t reached yet. I have both Yoimiya and Sayu and I can’t level up Yoimiya past level 40 and Sayu past level 20 because I haven’t reached Inazuma yet. I think a lot of players would appreciate this if Hoyoverse added it into the game. Also if u could make the gacha system better that would be amazing. I’m adventure rank 43 and only have three five stars(besides the traveler and Aloy) and only one of them is a limited time banner. Then with Aloy it would be cool if Hoyoverse could add a exclusive area for her, since she’s kind of just there and not important to the story at all. And since Hoyoverse added Fischl to Honkai Impact maybe they could add a Honkai Impact character to Genshin. A idea I have is for a new element and weapon. If Hoyoverse was going to add new elements and weapons in. A new element could be Corruption (a element exclusive to dps characters) and a new weapon could be a Scythe because those two seem to fit well together. The corruption region could be based off of South Korea with a cyberpunky style. The last thing is that I wish you could buy stuff and customize Paimon, like how you can get new skins and gliders for characters. Also my phone is dying AND plz add more Adventure Ranks :) why is it 24 gb 😭😭

Rough.. As the title says, Genshin is a pretty unpolished game in some areas. The lack of rewards during the anniversary, the resin system, the artifice to system (which was almost seemingly implemented into the game to work against the players progress) are all evidence of a game leading to failure. Quite frankly, this game would have been dead months ago if resin wasn’t a way for mihoyo to time gate some of the game’s LITTLE content. You might be wondering how I can say that the resin is a bad system while also acknowledging that it’s what keeps the players playing, but my point is that players feel like they’re missing out opportunities to get artifacts and whatnot and that they feel that they’re actively killing their account by NOT draining their resin, so they feel forced to play to prevent that. One of the main reasons this game is still going actually is because there’s no competition for the game to compete with. Honkai? Not open world. Blue protocol? Doesn’t exist yet. Tower of fantasy? Not out yet. ZZZ? Not out yet, and even if it was it’s also CREATED AND OWNED by Hoyoverse (Honkai too.) They’re literally competing with themselves. As soon as an anime rpg open world game comes out which is very well done and isn’t plagued by the same problems Genshin is, then the game will really be hit hard player wise. It’s player return count is already dwindling every time a new update comes out. This isn’t even half of my issues with this game.

The game doesn’t translate well to mobile. Genshin impact is a great game. very fun to play, engaging story, and aside from being a BoW clone it has an element of uniqueness to it. Over all a great game, but just not quite there on mobile. Has a lot of lag, but on top of that doesn’t provide the must haves for mobile gaming. The game doesn’t provide an option to rearrange ur hub layout, which is super surprising Bc this is a simple service that is provided by almost all newer mobile games. The game isn’t claw sensitive, for example if ur using an archer and you do an aimed shot, the game doesn’t allow u to hold the shoot bottom with one finger and aim with another which is really annoying. It’s not always a problem but it definitely get in the way. The game also isn’t compatible with a controller which is also surprising. It’s seems like the games has an obsolete approach to mobile gaming which is weird Bc the game legit just came out. Aside from the hiccups it’s a great game, just a way better game on every other platform. Take for example Fortnite mobile, epic was able to take the experience players had on pc and console and give it to mobile players. To the point where some mobile players were able to out preform some console players. That’s was amazing on epics part. Genshin hasn’t be able to make the game comfortable to mobile players and that why I’m giving it a 3. If this was a review on p4 I’d give it a 5. Devs not to make the game a better experience on mobile

The game has some issues after the release of Natlan.. Compared to previous regions, namely, Fontaine and Sumeru. Natlan has not lived up to expectations set by these 2 regions. The character designs have been subpar for many characters, their kits have been quite weird and have branched out from typical kits you might’ve seen in previous regions (not a good thing in my opinion). The Archon Quests have been just ok. Serviceable. In the English versions, voice acting has been quite barren, however this does get a pass because it is the fault of the ongoing voice actor strike. Regardless, it is immersion breaking and does severely impact the enjoyment of Archon Quests. Another example of the subparness of Natlan, there has been one (1) singular limited 5* male character since Wriothesley. Since Wriothesleys release it was over a year since a limited 5* male was added. Speaking of Wriothesley, he has also not been reran since his first banner over a year ago. I hope things begin to change soon, because as it stands. Natlan has been a huge letdown. And to the people who are responsible for managing the game, alienating a sizeable percentage of your playerbase is NOT a good strategy to increase your profits. You are only pushing them away and “waifu” pullers will not be replacing them faster than male pullers will leave, nor will releasing women characters more often replace how much money you would be making from male characters. Change this, and change it fast.

Outstanding With Drawbacks (pros&cons). Pros: The game is beautiful with amazing graphics, exploration, music and unique characters. The storyline is interesting and (mostly) well-written, and higher-rarity characters are not 100% required to finish everything in the game. It has simple mechanics and interface, meaning that even if you don’t normally play video games, you can still pick up on what to do pretty quickly. There is plenty of content for you to do when you *first* start. Will keep you entertained for hours, days, weeks, months, maybe years. Cons: you get burnt out a while after finishing the storyline and some farming for your characters. Artifact system has WAY too much RNG which is one of if not the system that burns players out most. Events are limited and once they go away, the important lore (and rewards) go away as well. Endgame is basically nonexistent. Little to no interaction with playerbase; company is very greedy. Extremely expensive (although that’s not a surprise). Characters are region locked, making Inazuman (and potentially others) characters inaccessible to new players who might have obtained them. Diversity is lacking and one character (Dori) is *possibly* orientalist. Overall, very beautiful and entertaining game. However, there are quite a few things that could improve it to make it even better.

Great game! Just few issues that bother me…. It’s a great game, incredible storyline, and absolutely astonishing graphics that are just alluring. Though I feel as if this game is P2W (Pay 2 win) and as a F2P (Free 2 play) person on the game, it feels unfair. We battle mobs, get chests, and in the mail get food but barley any primos unless there are events and let’s add that we almost never get primos from the chests, waypoints, or things we do. We get okay amounts for the main quests and sometimes side quests, but to get characters we want for banners? It’s barley enough. I’ve tried multiple ways to get primos, but they never worked. What really just bothers me is the fact that the primogem or genesis crystal prices are VERY high for barley anything, and I don’t want to pay for something that’ll probably get used quickly with the chance of not even getting the characters I want. It’s also unfair to have to play HOURS on a game to barley get rewards. Finally, the chance of not even getting the characters we want. It bothers me to think that I save up to loose the 50/50 or my pity drops until the guaranteed. If we can’t get good characters, we can’t develop well in the game. Let’s also add that if we do get a good character, if not given correct weapons or artifacts, they will be really weak. Other than these few issues, I find the game really good.

Slowly turns into a boring routine. When I first started this game, I had a blast, I did. I’ll admit that at first it was giving me way too many botw vibes and I was very hesitant on playing because I thought it seemed like a copy and paste. But then I gave it a chance and it was worth it? Until you get to a higher AR or hit the cap, then it turned into a chore and grind fest. 100% every region, no more gems for you until either a new region becomes available or they give you another event to do, they become scarce until that point, and even then as soon as that happens, everyone is on it and have already cleaned out the place within days. The resin cap could be higher, like 220 instead so we can craft 5 condensed resin for domains instead of wasting gems to get more resin, which the cost goes up higher the more you try to refill. Yes the abyss gives you 600 gems but it’s a weekly thing and we only have so many days to pull on banners. The only thing you’ll really look forward to after reaching a high AR is dailies, grinding for whatever you need like exp, gold, artifacts, talent mats, boss mats and weapon mats, and once you’re out of resin and have nothing else to possibly do, you log off and wait till the next day to repeat the process. Like I said, it becomes a chore and honestly really repetitive when you think about it. Try it if you want but don’t say I didn’t warn you. Good luck and enjoy what you can.

Amazing Game. I’ve been playing Genshin for 3 years now, and I have to say, this game blew my mind. The visuals are stunning, the story is fantastic, and the gameplay is so much fun. I would’ve given the game 5 stars if it was perfect, but it is not. The first thing I’d like to address is the time to refill all the resin. Now that the game has 200 resin max, 8 minutes is too long to max it out. I believe it should be shortened to 5 minutes so that players can utilize all 200 resin daily. My second complaint is the artifact transmuter. It sounds like a godsend, but unfortunately, it is not. The transmuter is RNG based, and players run the risk of having all their rolls fall into bad substats, even if they have already chosen two substats of their own. Please, I beg of you, fix it. It’s not fair to the players. I don’t mind how long it takes to get another bottle, just remove the RNG setting. My final complaint is the domains. Ever since Dendro got added to the game, farming domains have become even harder to get the desired artifacts that everyone’s pining for. Not to mention, the substats are still a nightmare for these artifacts. If it’s possible, please modify the domains where it’ll be easier for players to farm better artifacts. Additionally, changing the RNG might bring back dead players! If those three things can be fixed, my rating will definitely change to a 5 star all the way.

Stuck.. Overall, Genshin Impact was a pretty cool game at the beginning. Including the immaculate amount of high quality graphics and the absolutely adorable designs, such as Paimon. Although, after at least 30 minutes, I believe, of downloading the full version, following Amber and completing quests, all the way to discovering the temple and fighting the monsters, I had uncovered a level where you had to fly to reach the other side. You were stuck on a huge cliff, on one side, a huge gap in the middle, and the other side. The instructions that Amber had given me were to fly across the gap to get to the other side. After all, I had just discovered the game ability to fly a while ago. Thinking this was easy, I concentratedly pressed the button and attempted to fly across the gorge, only to be sent down into the "abyss" and be revived. Just then I had discovered that your characters could die, unfortunately. I repeatedly tried over and over to fly across the gorge without the game automatically making my character sink in a sort of slow matter, enough time to make me fail to reach the other side. My lives were decreasing and soon enough, the only character left I could use was Amber. Eventually I just gave up. Developer, do you think you could possibly consider this problem that I, a mobile player, have been having? I cannot play Genshin Impact until the "glitch" has been fixed, since my lives are decreasing every try. Sincerely, -An Upset Player.

So long partner o7. Genshin has been one of the best games ive played and will be for a while the fan base yeah can get a little wild at times and yeah i disagree with somethings but over all one of the best times ive had mostly all the people ive played with were kind and the characters were great the story was amazing and i felt at ease and happy the whole way through i was an F2P and ive made it all the way to AR 56 and almost cleared spiral abyss with 35 stars the whole game was fun and i enjoyed every second but all good things must come to an end with genshin taking up to all my storage i cant keep playing and once inazuma came it was over but the day before the update i did my last wish and tripled crowned my childe on his b-day :D but now since i dont have a pc or anything else to play genshin on i guess its over the road has ended and my time is over i would have loved to play the new update i was even saving for yoimiya but i guess its time to leave ill still stay in the fandom but never be able to play :( good bye genshin ive had my fun but goodbye i wish everyone who reads my story luck to get whatever 5* you want now or in the future goodbye take your time on everything no rush all journeys must come to an end but the memories we made along the way will stay with us till the end.. o7

2 year mark player opinion. I’m slightly burnt out, but that happens with all games no matter where you go. However, as a somewhat busy person, quests are dropping out at just the right time so that I have good content when I need it. What about the representation? About the lack of representation, I completely understand. It’s a problem, but not the end of the world. Not everyone from the Middle East is dark skinned, so slightly tone complaints down if you have any. I see too many people screaming that everyone should be dark. Is genshin expensive? I never topped up for any primogems. There’s 17 five stars on this account from zero buying. That’s way more than enough. Why are all bodies so unrealistic? Marketing purposes. You’d be shocked to see how many people would skip out on an overweight or average looking character if genshin ever made one. Don’t blame the company, it’s because of us. I’d hate to admit it, that’s just how people work. Is grinding hard? Not until the year and a half mark for me. Then I hated it. Until I got a new character, and the hype got me going. Thing is, grinding for the amount of time I did was enough to clear the endgame. No one is making you eternally grind. Genshin has flaws such as artifacts, etc. but I still play because the archon quests always hit hard, and wishing your hard work into characters is a nice feeling. 8.5/10.

Not so great anymore. Honestly I loved this game since Venti’s release! The open world roleplay style of games is what really catches my eye, I’ve known this fandom for years now. The quests first started out interesting and the characters depth and styles were awesome! Yet lately a lot of the archon quests ever since Sumeru have been kinda boring and I just skip through the dialogue. Natlan has been a huge letdown for me and the community. The over sexual characters, the lack of melanin in the skin tones and the overall ignorance of the story depth instead focused on the fan service and money. I honestly still love this game with my whole heart! But it’s kinda hard publicly saying I love this game without getting any sort of backlash. I really hope the devs see this and change their approach on marketing because I honestly want the best for this game and the most representative community please make your character skins darker and make better depth that’s what Genshin about! And don’t even get me started on the voice actor strike! It’s been really boring without the voices so please fix that too! I really want the best for this game and this community but it honestly feels like this company is focusing more on Honkai Star Rail with the new marketing of the characters. Try taking a step back and actually looking at your community’s look on this game instead of putting wifu after wifu! Happy new years Genshin..

Playing this game without spending money... This game is incredible! Endgame can be quite slow but as of recently, they’ve been leaving us with amazing places to explore that are so beautiful and fun! The challenge of some stuff has been making it a lot more interesting. If you are into lore, this story has a nice plot to it as well and I definitely think it’s worth mentioning. Besides that, you can play without spending any money. This has its ups and downs, mostly downs to some so I think I should mention about it. I definitely have had a better experience with this than others so I’d like to warn and recommend some things if you plan to play f2p. As a f2p(free to play) this game can become a double edged sword when you are working with the gacha system. I cannot stress how many times people will expect the gacha system to work in their favor and then quite the game because it didn’t work their way..! If you have to Rely on Luck to get the character you want, don’t expect to get them! Xd You shouldn't rely on luck, I’ve seen it through my brothers, it does not end up well half the time. Also, plan ahead! There will be times in the game play when you will be guaranteed the next character you want! So plan it out well and save your primogems (the Gacha currency for wishing)for that certain character.

Incredibly Fun. I started playing this game because my wife enjoys it and wanted me to help her with some of the tougher bosses haha. Suffice to say, we’re both practically addicted at this point 😅 this game provides hours and hours of fun, and updates regularly with new content, so theres always a reason to keep playing. I can see why people end up spending an awful lot on the gatcha mechanic, but i’ve been managing just fine earning my primogems by grinding. While there is the option to spend money, this is by NO means a ‘pay to win’ kind of game; regardless of how many cool characters you collect, if you want to complete the story, beat tough bosses, and upgrade your fav characters and weapons, you have to actually invest your time and get good. which i appreciate! I’ve been having a blast with it, and the fandom for this game (on twitter, tiktok, and tumblr especially) is very funny as well haha. if you liked breath of the wild at all, you’d probably enjoy this as well and pick it up very easily. I can see why some may think its a rip off, as a lot of the in game mechanics are VERY similar, but i will say this game has an entirely unique story, and a ton of things that make it a Very distinct game from BOTW. I would say its a game that would greatly appeal to anyone who enjoyed BOTW though, so check it out!

Love! The characters tho…. Hi! I just would like to say that this game is the most fun I’ve ever had! It is engaging, enthralling, and very nice. I like the American AND the Japanese dub. Some of the VA’s you’ve hired are relaxing to listen to. Especially Zhongli’s voice. But, speaking of Zhongli, I have no way to wish for the characters that I would like!! I say this because acquiring primogems, while easy enough, just isn’t enough. I usually save up..but there’s no telling what the next character(or weapon) will be up for the wishing. When I do wish for them, I don’t get them, and only get the essence of a character or some weapons that aren’t…prime. Don’t get me wrong, the anticipation of the wish is AMAZING and I love receiving these gifts, but as someone who has tried like, 9 times to get 5 star characters, I’ve only gotten new characters 4 out of 10 times, and only one five start character. It’s just simply to hard to get characters and nice weapons is all I’m saying. Other than that, its an amazing game, with beautiful scenery, lovely, silky voices, and an exciting and gripping plot line. But, we cant forget about the fight mechanics, and the EPIC BOSS BATTLES! I love this game! And the characters! I am grateful for whatever comes my way. I just wish getting characters and the weapons you want were easier! Thats all from me! Bye bye!

Some wrinkles to iron out, but otherwise decent. This game plays like a Breath of the Wild clone with completely optional gatcha elements. The fact that you can have a party of four, with each member having unique elemental skills and weapons specialties for whatever puzzles and enemies come your way. Plus the story of finding your lost twin and learning about the seven Archons is really engaging. And while the game’s PS4 counterpart lacks cross-save compatibility, it might prove useful to content creators who wish to do a Let’s Play of Genshin Impact. That said, I gave this game four stars. The reason for this isn’t because of some minor glitches that allow items to just float in midair (like what happened to me lol), but because of overheating issues on my IPhone SE Second Generation and the amount of battery life it siphons compared to some of my other apps. For mobile users such as myself, this game could definitely use a Battery Saver feature in the options menu. Could help with the battery issues, especially since once it overheats to a certain extent, the phone can lose charge... while it’s charging. Thank you for your time reading this, looking forward to more story content, and while I wouldn’t use the possible controller compatibility feature, I’m sure others would look forward to that. I hope you take this constructive criticism and implement it into future updates

This game is fricking awesome. First of all let me say I was pleasantly suprised at what this game could offer!! There is so much stuff to do and it never runs out! Now let me say I NEVER write reviews but this game blew my mind. The reason I am giving it 4 stars is because of the lack of changing clothes option you would think with all these options and customizational paths you would be able to at least change your clothes or your hair it would be so cool if you could change clothes or even your hair!! Like you could cut it or make it longer or different hairstyles things like that of course you would have to pay for the clothes and getting your hair done. I don’t think you should be able to change your hair color though since you are looking for someone that looks like you so being a whole different color of hair wouldn’t really match the description. So yeah you don’t have to come to the hair thing super quickly just start off with a clothing store in Mondstadt and I notice they mention they know you are not from around there when they see or mention your clothes so make different clothing in different stores but accustomed to the city. But start off small and just continue updating the game I think it would add a whole other aspect to the game making it even more fun than it already is! I know it would for me!! Other than that the game is fantastic!

Gorgeous and fresh. I’m not the type to write a review but there are so many wonderful things about this game that I’m DYING to say. First of all the art is gorgeous and clean, not just the map but the characters too. Secondly is the music. The music was performed by an entire orchestra which really helps set the mood. In a way they’re soundtrack almost rivals some of Nintendo’s tracks. No matter how beautiful the art and soundtrack it needs to have good plot and gameplay to succeed. And I can say that this game does have that. The mechanics aren’t too difficult even on mobile which says a lot. Even though mobile commonly has problems like mistapping and sometimes an annoying movement system they haven’t shown up enough to damper my opinion of it. The characters are all different with unique skills and abilities which is exciting and fun. The plot is immersive and interesting. Also the grinding system of loot and resin gives the player a reason to come back. There are a couple problems of course such as low drop rates for artifacts and characters but that’s how gatcha games are. Also since it’s open world it takes up a LOT of space and memory. Not for older phone users thats for sure. Overall I guess one complaint is that Paimon, the sidekick, can sound kinda annoying but I switched to Japanese VA and I think that helps a lot. Overall 10/10 great work Mihoyo

It’s great but it needs more customization.. This game is great overall but I think it needs a bit of customization like a character creator where you can make your own character when you go into it you need to pay 2 primo gems to make your own character and it will also ask if you want your own animations and moves witch cost 10 primo gems you can choose yes or no when you get into the character creator it will ask if you want a male, female or a small female after selecting it will ask your characters name when after you Type it in it will show step one the eyes you will be able to customize the eyelashes eye color and eye shape and eye size after that step 2 is mouth you will be able to choose from cat mouth normal mouth and squiggly mouth and lipstick step 3 is hair you will be able to choose bangs side bangs back hair and ponytails and colors step4 will be what type of character you want a cat like diona a elf or a human step5 will be to choose your skin color step6 will be for the ones who payed the primo gems for custom animations and moves if your on a pc you can upload your own animations and moves after all of that you will chose your weapon, hat, glasses, hoodie, top, skirt, socks and dress if you want you can change your character for free later on that’s all I got to say as I said overall the game is good but it needs customization thanks if you put this in the game.

The new update… just no. ( I rated this a 5 stars so hoyoverse sees this ). The game starts out pretty fun, there was lots to do and I was wishing all the time because of how easy it was to get primos. But I’m AR 55 now, and I’ve stopped playing for a while because the game has gotten more boring, and it’s so hard to get primo gems other than events and some of the story or world quests. I’ve been keeping up with the new updates and saw that Sumeru was gonna come out. I’m Arab, and I was excited to see that it was based off of the Middle East / South Asia. But I was so disappointed to see you guys doing the same thing Aladdin did, mix up Middle Eastern and South Asian culture, there was barely any good culture representation of South Asian / Middle Eastern. Also the biggest thing, why are all the characters pale? The Middle East is diverse and not all people from there are tan some are paler or on the darker side of the spectrum, but there was only ONE character that was only a bit tan. And none of the characters had traditional clothes, or curly hair, and there was no Arabic / Hindi dub. I also didn’t see much rep for South Asia either. And being completely honest, coming from an Arab I expected much better. I don’t Know if this is racism, or just Hoyoverse didn’t do the proper research but either way I think this should be fixed.

Really fun game. This is a wonderful RPG with like-able characters who have great abilities. I stopped playing this game because it was too expensive! I pulled 2 5-star weapons other than the one I wanted. I was guaranteed to get Baal's weapon the next time I pulled a 5-star weapon, but at what cost? I spent so much money to pull for a weapon that I never got. The only 5-star character I enjoyed is Eula. But it took weeks or maybe months to get decent artifacts. Even if you don't spend money I think you will be disappointed because the rewards aren't worth the amount of time it takes to earn them. I think that it should a little easier to pull 5 stars and decent artifacts. I also think the daily commission rewards should slightly increase with a players Adventure Rank. I don't think getting rewards should be easy but I shouldn't feel like I am playing the lottery either. I think there should be reruns for popular characters like Venti, Xiao, and Hu-Tao. A separate banner that changes periodically for past banners would be great. There are so many players who are saving primogems for characters in previous banners. It's disappointing when you play a character's story quest, get to use the characters on trial and then thats it. The world itself is amazing and I love the stories as well. I am still a big fan of Venti and other characters. I may play the again later in the future.

Great Game!. So at first I was going to play this on PC, yet my computer is pretty slow and this game doesn’t work very well on it, so I usually play in my phone. So far I’m at Adventure Rank 27, and I’ve had almost no problems with the game. The storyline is great and there’s almost always something to do whether it’s the main story, side quests, daily commissions, or just exploring. The one thing that’s bad about this, as I’ve seen mentioned a lot before, is the resin system. The resin is the main part of the game that helps you level faster, but it regenerates at 1 per 8 minutes with a limit of 120. This can lead to a boring hour of just wandering and waiting for the resin to regenerate. Now onto the effect it has on my device. I’ve seen others say that it heats up your device pretty quickly, but I’d say it’s only a tiny bit faster at heating your device up as other games are. Now the devise I use is an IPhone SE that I got in October 2020, so it’s fairly new and had lots of storage when I decided to download. I’m glad I had lots of storage available because this game takes up around 4GB and more of storage on your device. The 4GB was expected thought because of the amazing game graphics and quality of gameplay, which at first glance does not look like it could fit on a mobile device. I’ll continue to play the game and I can’t wait for new updates and more stories!

Anniversary Drama. I have been playing Genshin Impact almost since the very first day and ever since then this game has been one of, if not, the best game that I have ever had the chance to play. I had always been a fan of gatcha games and this game ticked every box! Now this may just be me but I personally didn’t mind the anniversary rewards, it was rather balanced with 20 wishes given to all players AND a free glider, as well as a couple of mini events for some extra primo gems. Some others may say that other games give out 100 wishes or a 5* unit, but everyone seems to forget that EVERYONE is going to get Aloy, A FREE 5*, once 2.2 hits in a couple of days. As well as this, more rewards could be on the way hopefully. The problem with our community thinking 1* review bombing will ‘make a difference’ is just childish as well as harassing VA’s who only voice the character, they do not control how they work! I agree that some bugs are still present and should be addressed more than others but the Devs are trying their best to suit everyone’s wishes. Anyway that’s enough ranting for one day :D Keep up the good work Genshin, it’s been an awesome year!!

Absolute masterpiece. The designs of most of these characters are absolutely amazing, and the stories behind each one is usually pretty deep. The actual main quest is actually REALLY good. When I first started playing the game I wasn’t expecting much, but this game far exceed my expectations. This is also really good for people who are into lore, the amount of literary sources and overall good planning of the story is very impressive. Most patches are usually at least somewhat exciting, and there are around one or two dry ones every now and then, but the insane amount of content in the game will keep you entertained. If you want to engage with the fandom, though, I suggest you find your own people first because many people have different takes on the game whether it’s Fanservice, (specifically Fanservice for men) or just the irregularities in the story altogether. Besides that, I love this game.

Genshin Is the best game ever. Okay number one. The character designs are amazing and the plot is beautiful. Every single region has so much detail, lore and beauty. The archons, visions, the tsaritsa and the Fatui, the abyss order, Dainsleif, everything is unique and beautiful. The four region’s currently available out of the seven are Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma and Sumeru with Fontaine coming out next. New characters are being added, like Kaveh, Baizhu and Kirara, and the experience is amazing. The story quests are engaging and beautiful. Some people say that genshin is laggy - the way to fix this is to lower your detail and visual level. The Gacha experience is also very fun. I could play this game for days without getting bored! Currently, I am at AR 49 and hopefully ar 55 by the end of this year! Anyone who says that Genshin is for anime kids and webs is (no offense) kind of correct, but it’s quite obvious and the whole genshin community loves the anime characters and designs ingame. The community is also very welcoming and they are all some of the best people I’ve met. People are always open to help you whenever. You can set usernames and signatures to invite people to your world as well as request to join others. Getting to AR 16 to join other worlds is actually quite easy too. Overall Genshin is the best game and I love it!

A review from 50+AR Player. I’ve been playing for 3 years and well versed in all the drama and problems that have happened the last few years, although a lot would argue the game is problematic it’s improved on so many things since first coming out and as someone who usually grinds everything ‘til there’s nothing to do, I can assure you there is still things that can entertain you until the next update —which occurs every 4 WEEKS. If you are a casual player too don’t feel overwhelmed cause if you don’t wanna do all the story up until now you can skip all the way to the third last nation (two left to go as of now) In the end I suggest playing the game for like maybe 3-8 days to actually feel if you like or dislike the game, the start is a bit slow but it picks up after the second nation starts. And one last note, if you do end up being a genshin player critique whatever you find wrong but do not be toxic about it, the more we are civil about it the more problems gets fixed ;)

this is a matter. Hello! If you do catch up to reading this, please. i really need you’re help, i suppose there are other kids like me with the same problem, Anyway. This game is highly recommended, i recommended teachers and other kids to play it, but it seems that, the European server, really all the servers are making our wifi lag, we need help in making one for our country, Australia, if you are able to do that with no hassle than thank you and you are legendary, but until then i have to be sneaky when playing this awesome game, when my eldest brother is asleep or when the others are at the store. Despite of that problem, i want to somehow have my friends still able to join but we fear that we may or may not loose all of our data. if we can know a little more about this problem that could also be a good help, thank you for reading this, sincerely Cre3perJosea.

best game ever. Genshin Impact is literally the best game I’ve ever played. I found the mobile device experiences laggy, but I’ve switched to laptop and the experience is great. Sure it takes up a lot of storage, but it is certainly worth it. As for the game itself, WOW. The storyline is really immersive and all the characters have so much personality. The difficulty of the quests is just right, and they are fun to play too. I love the art style and atmosphere of the game, and the music really adds to the game. Personally, I don’t really focus on getting characters or swords from the gacha, I just play through the fame itself and I’m satisfied. Sure, if you do want some characters, it might be a bit grindy to get enough wishes to get your desired character, but i think with the addition of events that give you plenty of awards, the process to get enough wishes is worth it. Overall, really good game!

What made me most interested?. To be honest I don’t know what I was thinking when I first saw this game and picked to download for release, I kinda liked that you can be so interactive with it. Like your apart of it you can fight go your own way, without being restricted like other games, they don’t base it around levelling up. You can collect really cool characters and use them and check them out. Other games just make them png and tbh it’s boring so with Genshin I was clicked that they had such unique characters. I started off with honkai. Stopped but after awhile back into it, I think I have a always been into the type of adventure games that you can look at and are more 3D looking than 2D overall I’m glad I came across The game and am always to stay and keep playing! It has such a nice Graphics and beautiful parts with always something to do. If you don’t run outta resin ahha! But jokes aside this game was well developed and super fun, if you looking for a gacha themed, adventure game you can really travel in then Genshin is the game for you! <3 I suggest it to a lot of people and always fun to see my friends play it too. Keep it up! (I started around when the game released but only got back into it on October 25th my birthday so At this moment I’m ar56 btw!)

Absolutely disgusting.. This game is the ultimate gooner game. All the females are dressed up in revealing clothes and are completely seggsualized while the men are in completely normal clothes. The fandom is freaky and full of predators and this game is just horrible in general. Whilst I can agree, it’s very fun and enjoyable to play but they just need to work on the fact that ever single female has a thing for the main character. LIKE OH MY GOD JUST GIVE THEM INDIVIDUALITY, NOT EVERYONE HAS TO LOVE HIM OMG. Also, this game is completely allergic to melanin, tell my why the nation BASED ON AFRICA has only white playable characters!? AND THE FACT THAT THERE ARE BLACK NPCS TELLS ME THAT THEY HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO BUT THEY JUST DON’T WANT TO. I have been playing this game since it’s release in 2020 and have stuck out waiting for the black nations to come and have sided with them as all the nations where white irl but come on!? The got of the African nation is white?! What the hell!!! I have now deleted the game and REFUSE to play until you add a playable person of color. Very disappointed in you Hoyo. (Ps, add a black character and I will absolutely SPLURGE-she must be in practical clothes tho, tell me how a half zipped up top it good for a fighter!?)

review by an eula main. This game is fairly great, since its available on mobile, pc and xbox. There is a select few in the community who are toxic, but there is a lot of kind people in the community. The visuals is also great, except for some glitches with the landscape and characters. Multiplayer is also good but sometimes I would lag. Events are also great but isn’t quite fair for those who just started, the anniversary rewards also weren’t that great but I believe that the memories of the game is the gift. Of course this game has gacha, but just because the select few don’t get the character that they wanted doesn’t mean you have to send death threats etc to the developers. Other than the community being toxic I believe that this game is good, the beginning scene where the twins get separated, the plot and more. A summary of the bad things that happens is the amount of crashing for some other devices, the select few who are toxic and that is it! - P. S this comes from someone whos been playing since 1.5 with an ipad air ❤️

salty because i didnt get hu tao but at least i have guaranteed for kokonut. The game is excellent, the graphics are wonderful, the story is capivating (will never beat Honkai Impact but I'm not complaining)— but it falls flat in one VERY specific area; colourism. The majority of all playable characters are all pale, lightskinned, etc. The most recent area to be released— Sumeru, is a region where Hoyo has drawn LOTS of inspiration from cultures where their people majority at least tanned or darker. Sure, theres some brown people in the game, but thats as they get. Nahida's design would have been so much better if she was brown or darkskinned, especially when you take colour theory into account. Out of nearly 50 playable characters, theres only around 4 or 5 POC? thats not nearly enough. Especially when in Hoyo's official art they already whitewash said POC. Building on what's already been said, Hoyo's darkest characters are only enemies— read between the lines. Hoping they do better with Natlan.

I love genshin but. I do love genshin but i want more improvements. I want the game to still be fun and easy to play but instead it has to be hours of dedication to get strong, In genshin lots of people compare their f2p (free to play) self and their dmg to someone who is p2p (pay to play??) I just want people to not compare themselves and have fun playing, you dont have to be as strong as a whale. Just play at your own pace genshin isnt going anywhere. AND! People have to wait for a long time if their favourite character is cryo, GENSHIN HATES CRYO. I have been waiting for wriothesley and im going insane. I feel like genshin would be kinda fun if at the start of the game instead of straight away wishing you could choose any 5 star not just from standard, like if a character hasnt gotten a rerun in awhile. IDK. I would just like to start the game and choose kokomi cus she is pretty even if her materials are so far for new players.

amazing game. i’ve been playing this game for a while, and every time i play i just cannot believe that it’s free. the amount of artwork, music and voice acting efforts that were put in this game would make me instantly think it was a payed game if i were to see it for the first time, but it’s open to everyone, and you aren’t even forced to pay (unless you like wishing a lot hehe) to make progress, it’s one of the best games i’ve ever played. it feels so nice knowing you have a little world inside your pc, mobile, playstation, whatever device you play on and have all these characters who are also ur friends. the music and the cutscenes are my favourite parts of the game and i’m sure many other people would agree! you have created something special mihoyo, even if it’s a little addictive it’s still one of my favourite games to look forward to with updates +events !! i hope sumeru is as beautiful as ever (have no doubts that it won’t be) and i rly wish everyone who has ever contributed to making this game the best!! without you guys this game wouldn’t be as amazing as it is, also the storyline is BEAUTIFUL!! i love how every individual characters has a story behind them that we continue to learn about as we progress in the game, hopefully aether and lumine will be reunited soon, but travellers journey is far from over <3

Lack of diversity. I’ve been playing since 2022, and I was disappointed enough back then at the lack of diversity present in Sumeru characters when it came to none of them being dark-skinned, and only a few being tanned. Like many others, I decided to wait until Natlan came out, as we all figured the company that owns Genshin, Hoyoverse, would not lack diversity in skin tones in the nation based off of Latin America, Africa, and Australia/Oceania. However, according to Natlan’s trailer, only one character in the cast is black, and it’s a character we’ve seen already in Genshin’s trailer back in 2020 and her skin is ashy in colour. We can all only hope the representation of the different cultures are good, but considering multiple of the characters names are misspellings of real life names when Genshin has never misspelled names before now, I don’t have high hopes for the representation. Do better, Hoyoverse. You are a huge company and many other Chinese companies have done a far better job at having diversity than you. Not to mention all the designs look like they were made with darker skin in mind, and Sumeru and Natlan enemies have darker skin than the playable cast. Everyone knows you can make dark-skinned characters, you just refuse to. It’s a shame.

Deserves way more credit :D. I have been a Genshin player since the start of 2023, and it has done nothing short of surprise and excite me over and over again. The wish banners, the quests, new land being released and the overwhelming amount of AMAZING character designs. Don’t get me wrong, it would be nice to have slightly more diversity, but for the time being I think Genshin is exceeding all my expectations. You all should be grateful for this game and cherishing it instead of complaint about every small aspect you don’t like. Please stop picking apart every little detail that isn’t up to par. “The game is laggy” that’s an issue with your device, “I don’t have enough storage” that isn’t mihoyos fault, if u wish to play Genshin, make storage. Don’t listen to the people trying to hate for no reason! We love you and your wonderful game. Thank you for this wonderful experience hoyo!

Genshin Impact. I used this app on mobile and it honestly is not that good. First of all, when you log in, you have to wait VERY LONG. Like, why can’t you add a little tutorial gameplay or you can play a bit while it loads? Or, even a tutorial video would be fine! But, you just have to sit there waiting. Even after that, the start lags like mad. Fighting and the animations are ok, it is just the dialogue and animation part in there. Secondly, wishes. Who wants to spend so much just to get a single character, when you have to roll at least 90 times? Even primogems are hard to get! Even so, the new character added isn’t even that good… Thirdly, confusion. I sometimes get confused and off-track when I play storyline. It is confusing and sometimes I just don’t know what to do. Also, could you explain things like constellations? I had to find out these things by myself, watching video after video finally to know what constellations were, or for example, c1. Could you make these reasons above better and also improve the tutorial and explanations? Thank you. If you do this I will re-download the app. Ilysm devs!

I’ve been playing for 2 years, and... you guys did a really really great job on Genshin, I love, and appreciate all the hard work that has gone into the game, especially the music, and the controls are easy to get used to, all the events feel a little bit repetitive, but still fresh, the designs of the playable characters are amazing, and each one is unique, just the side characters look a bit cloned. I only have one complaint, I play on PlayStation, (on my TV) but all my friends always complains that their game keeps crashing, and it’s especially frustrating when they just defeated a hard boss. And with all the new events, and whatever codes you put in, The crashes are very difficult to fix. I know you guys don't read this, but I just wanted to rant on about how good this game is, even with all the tiny annoying things that bother me, I love this game. And I am looking forward to seeing the rest nations. :) 🌪🪨⚡️🍀💧🔥❄️

Great game and heads up!. To start I’m AR 54 and my archon quest is at the second quest of Natlan. This game is great on Pc and mobile, having to wait basically an hour for the data to load in understandable since the files are massive in every big update. Mobile tends to have less detail then Pc, the stories are long and sometimes entertaining (mostly the archon quests) but lately it’s been lacking in Natlan, I’m not finding it as amusing like Fontaine’s great show or the Chasm and Xiao’s cutscene. Natlan’s splash art is so bland and not eye catching or anything special, it’s like they lost their team of designers for it. The splash art would always set a mood and show the characters great features and bursts but now it’s so bland I can’t tell if you’re serious. The media also has mostly commented on the characters designs in Natlan and the place Natlan it’s self, they thought it was going to be an interesting and jaw dropping experience to explore and see but it let down my hopes and as well as everyone’s hopes. Furthermore, Natlan needs a more interesting update or something like it.

Great game would recommend. It's a great game and there's so much to love about Genshin. The graphics are great, the character designs, the easter eggs hidden in the game, map design, lore, cutscenes, character demos and so much more. Since Genshin is a gacha game, you cannot get whatever character or weapon that you want as it is based purely on luck or pity. The game is also pretty F2P unless you really want a character. But sometimes, you can get lucky as well which can also help. I have read some of the other reviews and yes, Genshin does take up a ton of space. Many people complain about this but it is also mainly because there are so many files, so many things that have to be included in the game to make the game it is. For people who also say that their game is always crashing, it might also be because there is either no space in your device, have been playing for too long, or your device can't support you running a game that big for so long. It does also happen to me sometimes if I play too long as my phone does eventually start to overheat and the game gets really laggy. All I need to do is to just exit the game, leave my phone for a few minutes and re-enter the game. Other than that, the game is amazing and I love it :)

I love this game but…. Genshin impact is an amazing game I found last year and from then I have been playing everyday non-stop untill one day I was playing and I wanted more apps to download but when i downloaded it won’t work. So I decided to delete Genshin and download it again but when i download it and logged onto my account it wouldn’t let me and said I have too much storage but when i deleted the app it still wouldn’t let me go on. So I deleted every app I had and still no hope and I gave up and download every app back till this day I still don’t have my account back this is really sad since all my hard work and effort was all lost I hope Genshin fixes this problem bc that would be a blessing thank you for reading this and bye. I have something to add… now it’s 2.8 and I really wanna play but the gigabytes of this game won’t go down I deleted and downloaded gushing about 3 times now and my little brother told me to just give up now but I worked on this acc for over a year now I’m not ready to let go of this wonderful game so I’m begging please try to lower the gigabytes.

i like it but…. genshin is a good game imo. it’s rich in lore and the characters, world and art is gorgeous. i would be lying if i said the anniversary event didn’t disappoint me. the rewards weren’t great and quests i found frustrating. mihoyo is a money hungry company 🤷 to spend money on the game everything is so absurdly expensive and often without much payoff either. i certainly agree that those that spend money on the game should have better opportunities to get better characters and weapons but being f2p is /too/ difficult, especially when you get to a higher level in the game. i know people that have played for months and have only gotten one 5 star because of pity. the pity system is wayyyy too expensive and why make one wish 160 primogems? why now just 100 or even 125? getting new characters is a fun experience until you realise you need like 300 hero’s wit to get them to 90 so pls make hero’s wit even just a LITTLE more available cause i’ve finished the archon quests and it’s so difficult to find hero’s wit…

Excellent game. Genshin Impact is probably one of the finest games there is to play for a “gacha” based open world game. You can do so many things, and plus, it’s all free. I’ve not made a single purchase on Genshin yet, and have had a good experience, that hasn’t really been effected by this fact. The game requires a sound system to support it, but as a mobile and IPad user, I’ve encountered no issues except for lag and long loading times… it’s not a massive problem, and quite rare. As a gacha game, obtaining characters you want can be difficult… you must save up enough in game currency (which can be quite tiring), and it’s all based on luck. Meaning you might not get the characters you want. However, once you’ve played through all available story line pulling for characters gives the game purpose. The content can wear thin after that, though. The combat system is great. It’s probably one of the nicest in terms of open world gaming (especially with the fantasy element). It’s super customisable. It has an it wearing sorry and you get a great “feel” for the characters... Sometimes the game can wear thin, though, especially if you’re not typically “good” at it. It’s probably a 4/5 for someone who’s good at it and really loves the game. For me it’s worn down to a 3/5. Still pretty good.

Setting the bar for future mobile titles. The world is huge even just between Liyue and Monstadt. It’s not as densely populated but there is enough within the open world to keep you busy ala BOTW. The mobile game elements actually work really well and I feel like I could have payed $60 for this game and still without the gacha in it. The gacha characters play differently enough to the others that they actually add a little more depth to the game. You don’t have to roll the right character to progress, at least not where I’m up to as there are base characters that join to get you through. However the gacha characters do have slightly better stats. You can find pretty good gear in the open world if you wander as well, which is pretty much what I’ve been doing. The game systems are pretty balanced and the game is even accessible to those who don’t want to spend any of their money. You’d be able to download the game and lock your kids out of purchases and they’d still be able to progress through it and have a similar experience to those that do spend money. The story isn’t ground breaking, but it is engaging enough and the soundtrack is impressive. It’s not just the same 3 tracks, as you move around areas the music changes. It’s a really good game, I hope this signals to other developers that even mobile gamers want a bit more than just top down or short dungeons.

The best open world game I ever played. The game is perfect for me, the world is not too big yet not too small. I think I’m still at the start of the game because some areas are still restricted. There’s a slight problem with the graphics on mobile with its rendering, with the pitch black of the further abyss, I want to see the whole world with my own eyes, so I download the game on pc. The world was the the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in an open world game, and that’s when I realise that “my iPhone 6s+” can’t run such beauty, so I continued playing the game on pc, but I hope this beauty can be run by my phone so I can play the game where ever. I think this can will be the most addictive game that I’ll ever play, because the battle mechanics is so destructive that I can kill a high easily. I will recommend this game but if you have the same graphics problem as I have, giving a try with a computer.

REMOVING CULTURE IS NOT OKAY. This game is completely whitewashed. Using cultures and not representing them a single bit. Natlan of all places should ATLEAST have melanin in some characters, but to my surprise THERE WAS ONLY ONE CHARACTER with melanin??? Seriously? Less than sumeru? Why is the Pyro archon white as a sheet, even whiter than the other natlan characters, despite meant to represent a Māori god? Her outfit is disappointing, not showing STRONG WARLORD with cool armor or culture clothing, BUT is a race car driver outfit?? Plus the character designs LOOK BETTER with atleast a little tan. All the other characters are meant to represent some god and the team obviously did not show that in their designs, literal white washing. This whitewash of their cultures isn’t even new, like for example in sumeru, where Candace was meant to represent a “Kandake from Kush”, even wearing different motifs/clothing/acessories which come from those places, but is still completely WHITE washed, with her skin not even close to being the same as the Kandakes. It’s not that hard to represent culture Hoyoverse. Other Chinese games have been able to represent cultures very well. This is your problem, fix it.

We need more diversity in characters and NPCs in Sumeru. In the game currently there are only two even vaguely tan characters (kaeya and xinyan) out of the total 40+. Now this could have been excused because all the current regions the game has are based off Germany, China and Japan, but the upcoming region Sumeru is based off the SWANA area. It is disrespectful to take the culture, architecture and clothing inspiration from a country and then not give the skin tones in said area representation. Please give the Sumeru characters darker skin tones and please do research into the culture of the region you are basing you region from. In terms of Sumeru NPCs so far in the game, every single one has been white. If this is anything to go by, then the future characters will be white, and that in truly unacceptable for a game that wants to base its regions off real life places and people. There is nothing to lose for the game by bringing in more diversity, if anything sales will increase as more POC will be inclined to play to see their countries and ethnicities represented in a game. In the trailer the character Cyno was previewed and his skin looks like it could be tan. If his in game model ends up being pale along with other characters, a lot of the player base will stop playing genshin. Please give Sumeru characters darker skin tones as it is disrespectful and racist to not do so when using all other inspirations from the countries.

LOVE IT but buggggsss. So you know the new event (Moonlight Merriment), I was doing the quest ‘The Path of the Austere Frost’, one of my friends joined to help me and when we unfroze the frozen boar it ran, I hit it and it dropped nothing. Does anyone now an alternative way to finish the quest or do I have to just deal with it… in fact this isn’t the first time it’s happened to me, i guess I’m just unlucky when it comes to glitches because in the luhua landscapes world quest i remember we had to two of collect something but i only got one, i literally watched ten different gameplays to help me but that when i realised that it must of been a glitch. I know these types of glitches have happened to a bunch of people and due to this Mihoyo could possibly make it so you could restart a quest but still attain the same amount of rewards as doing the quest normally, I am aware that this could cause issues but hey its worth a shot.

don’t download unless you have a new iphone/ipad. I love/loved this game so much, I played everyday for around a year, I started in early october of 2020. I levelled up to AR55 and I even spent $50 (I’ve never spent money on a game before). I had stopped temporarily a month or two back due to the lack of content before the Inazuma update. However when I came back the crashing problem became unbearable. Previously I could deal with the crashing problem cause it only happened when I teleported to a city, replaced the characters in my team, and in general only every 20-30 minutes. BUT NOW, it’s less than 5 minutes and the game crashes. I even set the graphics and quality to the absolute lowest and it can only last 5 minutes. It’s an amazing game but with every single content update the crashing problem will get more severe. This is only the third area out of seven. I probably won’t be able to play again until I buy a PS4 or PS5 or a new phone (I have a 64GB iphone8). I wouldn’t recommend anyone to download genshin unless they have a recent model of the iphone or ipad.

It WAS a five.. Okay so i joined genshin around 3.5 before fan service was a main frequency in the character designs and then the lore, character designs, geography and bosses were fun and unique in a good way. But now with natlan released....uhm if you didnt know mavuika (the war god mind you) is wearing a tightly fitted almost leather type body suit. Held up. By a zipper from breasts to lower back...thats really weird and overally sexual "oh but its fantasy" are you blind? Do you read lore? Ik your a gooner! And also dont make a nation HEAVILY based off of real life cultures then make them white! "They never said teyvat nations were based of nations irl!" So the shrines in inazuma are just like made up? Mmhm sure guy. I guess its fine if the inazuma characters are pale bc its accurate to japan but once i start talking abt sumeru oh sht your a hoyo glazer. EVERYTHING is gooner bait now even the child charcaters ppl somehow sexualise , like sigewinne a nurse who struggled in life being half melasin (forgive my spelling) is being remaked in fanart in sexy clothing. Wth. Lets go back to mondstadt. Give mondstadt an expansion. Back when mondsadt things made sense. Things matched there nation and characters wore appropriate clothing MOST of the time.

Good but a ways to go. Now don’t get me wrong, this is a fantastic game which the devs have obviously worked tirelessly on. There’s great gameplay with diverse landscapes, however I wish there was more diversity in the characters to match. The regions of the game-map and their respective citizens are modelled around real world nations, however the skin tones of the characters don’t vary (to anything more than a light tan) to match the cultures and people they’re representing. This game is at the forefront in a lot of other respects, and as an internationally popular game I don’t understand why they would whitewash and exclude from representation anyone who isn’t fair skinned especially when they’ve already created a story for them to fit. It would also be nice to skip through dialogue, and I found a lot of the gameplay tutorials confusing and wished the descriptions on use of some mechanisms in the game were more detailed/clearer (perhaps with a video?). I ran into a couple other issues too: struggled a bit with crashes, screen freezing and lagging, and losing progression, . . but I’m running out of space haha. The game truly is high-quality, and a lot of fun to play. They got the difficulty scale right, which is hard to do. I DO recommend it and I would’ve left a higher star review, but I wanted the devs to read it because it is truly disappointing given all their hard work and success that in this day and age they still fall short. Looking forward to the next update!

Amazing game, but one MAJOR problem. I am an AR (Adventure Rank) 55 player, and started playing since the Dragonspine update (late December of 2020). Quite recently, my laptop broke while I was playin Genshin Impact (it crashed when I opened the menu, and it refused to work properly from then on). After that, I switched to playing Genshin Impact on the mobile version. When I first started playing on mobile, I would have 30-40 minutes of smooth playing, up until the game would crash. I eventually got used to it, and I would simply open the game again. Sometimes it would crash when I teleported from waypoint to waypoint, entered a domain, opened the menu, and when I wished. However, quite recently, the game started crashing more frequently, and I could only play for less than 10 minutes before it crashed. This was especially apparent during a commission (a daily quest) which progressed in 3 parts. Basically, after finishing the first 2 parts, my game would crash and I’d have to start the commission from the very beginning. The constant crashing makes the game unplayable. Personally, I rate this game 3 stars because of the many problems I had encountered while playing the game (both on PC AND mobile). Although the game itself is really fun to play, the game constantly crashing turns the fun into annoyance and anger.

I’m speechless. Ever since I started playing this game I realised how much love and support went into this game, I’ve been playing genshin for a while now and here today I’m making a honest review about the company’s amazing game work masterpiece and the details. Genshin is one of those games that is fantasy and has hooking in storyline’s, the new events, quest, banners, and etc have just blown me away not only that the characters attack based themes and the different maps Inazuma liyue mondstadt summeru chasm and more, have there own sort of theme based on characters elemental forms from which realm they are from my personal favourite is gotta be Inazuma But In every way the characters and the areas they are from are absolutely beautiful. This has been my first ever genshin review and i just wanted to say this because genshin has really put in the effort to make all of the community hyped about the gameplay. Thank you so much hoyoverse for the amazing detailed game very much appreciate it👏👏

Amazing but there are many issues. Genshin impact is one of my favourite games but there are a few issues i’d like to talk about. Firstly there is no oceanic server so my game and many others ping goes crazy and lags a lot. Secondly the gacha system is horrible and is so unfair with such a low chance of earning a 5 star character, because of that, it is nearly impossible/really unlikely to get constellations for 5 star characters without paying money. Another thing is that the adventure rank level awards are horrible, the most you get is 1 wish and it’s standard. People have been playing for months to reach their levels yet get such little rewards. Lastly, the higher the level, the more difficult it is to earn primogems. AR 50-55+ doesn’t have as many events as from when you first start the game which makes it harder to earn primogems, and with what I said before it makes it so hard to get wishes or 5 star characters without paying money. Apart from all the flaws, it’s a beautiful game with a great story line I just wish Mihoyo could be more generous.

A honest and realistic review. Genshin impact is a great game. Everyone that’ll play it enough will learn to love it like many of us in the community but there’s a fair amount of toxicity within the community that I believe is not fair on the developers of this game. Genshin impact is a gacha game, which means obtaining your most wanted characters is a difficult task since it’s dependent on your luck unless you play for a long time and save up the in game currency. This game has become a year old recently and for the anniversary we didn’t get many rewards. We basically got enough of the in game currency to get a 4-star weapon or character twice (minimum) which the community wasn’t happy about. We also had some events where we could get the in game currency to obtain characters and so on. The main issue is people are complaining about the lack of content. Some content creators are making money from promoting the idea Genshin impact is dying when it’s really not. Genshin impact is a year old game that needs to be given time to shine. And so the main complaints come from the people that absolutely grind the game and play it a couple hours a week because there’s no content to make or anything to do really. For new players this game is amazing though. You will enjoy playing the game, maybe not as much in the gacha system since it’s well known to screw you over with bad characters but otherwise a great game.

orientalism and inaccurate representation. I think this game so far has done a commendable job on representing the cultures it has presented in its characters through mondstadt to inazuma. However, with what we have of sumeru so far my confidence is failing. All of the NPCs we’ve encountered are white despite the region supposedly being based off of the SWANA region (frankly a bit of a misguided decision considering how difficult it would be to properly represent each culture within it but whatever that’s a different post entirely). Yes pale people exist in these regions, however they are hardly the majority. With this in combination of recent leaks divulging designs that seem unfocused on any particular culture and are instead an in-cohesive depiction of orientalist stereotypes as seen in Dori’s design, I can’t see myself wishing on any of these potential banners let alone spending any money. I understand that this is a fantasy game, however with the standard of output this company has shown itself capable of previously this handling of sumeru is unfortunate at best and bigoted at worst. I doubt me kicking up a fuss will really do anything lol but those are my thoughts.

Amusingly the best. I started playing Genshin Impact nearly two months ago, spending around 2 hours a day in the world of Genshin Impact. I loved it from the moment it started for me. My friends already played it, some of them since Genshin Impact started. They helped me with the harder parts, which was helpful because of the crashing (Yes, Crashing is a huge problem for mobile users. I crash every ten minutes when I’m lucky). I adore all the time put into making all the characters with their unique stories, And the fact that this app was one of the best games of the year in 2020, when it was only released in September last year. Yes, there are a few problems, but very minor usually, which Genshin Impact updates regularly as it’s yet to be finished. It’s constantly entertaining, and very unlikely you’re going to get bored. It’s more of an addictive app than a time killer app, but five stars for me, and I hope you too. Thank you for reading this. :)

Another review..about crashing, again.. Hey, devs could you fix the crashing problem on ipad/tablets? Its really painful for us having to crash every minute. Genshin is a crossed platform game and it would be really helpful if you stoped the crashing on ipad. And, lessen the graphics in cutscenes, its so painful when you are glitching and just want to see the cutscene which is absolutely pointless. Ipad is my main device along with pc but ipad feels so nice, although crashing creates a problem every time I coop, change setup, go into quests, teleport, wish. Theres so much more, since its Inazuma now and ipad/tablet devices are suffering even more limiting the crash limit by every 1 minute and then crashing. It would be a miracle if you fixed it or added a new feature to log into the game quicker. Please, Im begging you. Crashing is a problem in this game and I would want you guys to pay attention to it. Spend your time though, crashing made me learn how to tolerate and be patient.

don’t listen to them. Okay mihoyo. Listen. Do Not EVER listen to those selfish idiots trying to milk you for op things. I myself think that you have done very well to support everyone that has contributed in building the community. I am very much grateful for them, as they are better than nothing. There is one problem. I fear that if nobody does something (not saying that you guys have to change the rewards) this game may be taken down. I personally think that Genshin is a great game and do NOT let those people make you guys feel down. Especially the ones who are being targeted. VAs should not EVER be harassed because of how the character fights or what they do. Even if nobody might see this, I just needed to say what i thought and is right. If they are making you down, if you are a player or staff, you should NOT EVER let it get into your head. And if you have spammed 1 star reviews just because of a ANNIVERSARY REWARD, consider yourself not part of this community because even if I’m not part of the making of genshin, I know that they do want people like you here. ps Good job Mihoyo, Keep it up 🥰

Do better as a company.. Ever since Sumeru, I’ve been hoping to see better representation of the countries used for its inspiration. Alas, we’ve all been disappointed time and time again- especially after the Natlan trailer released recently. How can you take pieces of other people’s cultures, and have the nerve to leave those said people who represent those cultures behind? As a company, you’ve shown time and time again that you indeed are CAPABLE of creating people of colour with ethnic features. This is shown through Yunjin, a character inspired by Chinese opera, and all of the enemy designs (eg. the Emirates) within Sumeru. The fact that you’re able to create designs that have darker skin and diverse hair types, yet choose to only use them on enemies is disappointing and horribly racist. You believe that they won’t sell well, yet all of the bare minimum tanned characters ingame have bad kits(Candence, Dehya, Xinyan), and you wonder why they don’t? So many people were hoping to have their culture FULLY REPRESENTED, but you failed to deliver once again. Even the Chinese and Japanese players are commenting on this, so where’s your target audience now?

Great!. I’ve only played for about 2 months so far, but boy is this game stunning. The scenery ranges from peaceful to absolutely chaotic, and the music always makes me happy (even if it’s my thousandth time being kicked from the game and it’s only been like 3 minutes—). Oh yeah, on that note, this game definitely would’ve been a 5-star, but right now, it’s really bugging me sometimes. I always have to keep my graphics on the lowest, and even then, it’s so laggy and keeps crashing! Not to mention that I recently bought some more storage, and cleared out a lot of photos and deleted a lot of apps. I literally have not even used up half of my storage, and it still is just…! Also, I think it wouldn’t hurt to be a bit more generous with the rewards. Although I can’t really call this a very grindy game, I still need to squeeze out every last drop of primogems to ensure I get the character I want (I’m f2p, so ehe). All in all, Genshin is actually very good. I’m the type to just play a game for a week, then forget all about it, but I have a feeling I’ll be playing this one for awhile. I mean, there’s still soooo much to explore and enjoy, and that’s one of the many merits of this game. Please keep the great work up, and don’t forget about the ideas that we have too!^^

Good but.... I've been playing Genshin Impact for quite a long time now and it's a great game. I've met so many kind people that helped me with my quest and the Genshin Impact community is so kind. But I have a few issues, first of all, Genshin Impact has really good updates but it's been taking up all of my data, not giving me any storage to download any other apps. A few months ago I decided to take a break from Genshin Impact so I just deleted the game. I remembered my login, email and password too and I just downloaded it again today. But when I tried to download the app, it said I didn't have enough storage. Reasonable, so I just deleted a few apps I didn't play anymore. It finally let me download the app, I had to wait for nearly 30 minutes before it finally downloaded. Then, you know how it gives you a choice before the entire game starts if you wanna download some stuff? Yeah, so I decided to download it. I deleted around 10 apps, even my favourite apps, and I thought that would work. But then I went back into Genshin Impact and it didnt work. So I continued deleting 5 more apps and all the pictures I didn't need. The same process repeated about 4 times before I just gave up and deleted Genshin. Another issue is the app is very laggy and it always crashes, a lot of my friends have had this problem too and they're very disappointed. They've been writing reviews and you guys haven't even seen any of them, if you can, please look at them and try to fix it.

My favourite game!. Genshin Impact is an adventurous ongoing game with exiting monsters to fight, domains, fun quests and meeting cool new characters. You can never get bored in Genshin! Once you’ve done a quest or all your commissions you can explore the map, unlock teleport waypoints and duel in Genius Invocation TCG witch is a really fun game in a game. You can go into co-op and help your friends with bosses and domains so you can get artefacts and things able to ascend your favourite characters. Wishing is one of the best things in my opinion. For example you really wanted a 5 star character and they were on one of the two banners, you could wish for them! With one pulls and ten pulls you may get the character you want, a weapon or a few 4 star characters on the way! Did you know, you can play on any device and it still be easy tp control?! But the device has to have all the storage Genshin needs or else you won’t be able to play. To sum this up, Genshin Impact is a fun, exiting and addicting game to play with all your friends whenever you want!

✨🔥👌Wow :O👌🔥✨. I don’t know where to start. Ok, maybe at the begging. I was chilling watching some anime, and an add came up for a game called ✨genshin impact✨ what I saw in that add was amazing character designs, graphics, fighting, and a immersive storyline. When I downloaded the game ( thank god my storage was enough, my PC pushed through) I saw exactly what I had seen and heard in the add. Beautiful characters, and a rich storyline awaiting me. I have been playing for a year now, and mihoyo never disappoints. I have hooked all my friends into it and we are all addicted. I would like to say I’m F2P, but… KOKOMI. genshin has a wide range of characters to use, with all different animations and fighting styles. The community in general is really nice, and genshin was such a help moving through Covid. It is where I go when I feel that I have too much on my mind, where I can relax with the beautiful graphics and music. It’s a lovely game, and I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a amazing (and free!) RPG. Stay safe 〜<3

My favourite game ever :). By far, Genshin Impact is my favourite game I’ve ever played. The storyline line is intriguing, the characters are so interesting and the overall gameplay is super fun. There’s something in this game for everyone, whether it be the fun events, playing with your friends, collecting or levelling up characters, getting achievements or just exploring the world of Tevayt. The only problems that I’ve had, and noticed that other people have had, is the game crashing. This is understandable as it is a very big and open world game and especially on older phones, it will crash a lot. Nevertheless I still play this game almost everyday and I’m hoping to get a PC so that I am able to play with better Graphics and Frame rate. I definitely recommend this game to everyone as it’s so fun being able to be immersed in this fun and interesting world. I can’t wait to continue my journey and see what’s to come!

Regular review??. It’s pretty nice the game. Yes there’s been issues such as anniversary rewards and a bit of a toxic community but when it comes down to it the game is amazing. It has a ton of content when you join as a new player, I’d say when u take your time playing u get the full experience. Considering the game is only a year old and still in development THERES a ton to do. Unless u grind for hours, you’ll be fine. The graphics and music are actually beautiful, I cant even begin to explain how high Hoyoverse has set the bar when it comes to these things. And the fact you can play without paying is great, but there’s always that urge you gotta but at the end of the day it’s all up to you. The fact you wish for characters is nice, but it’s difficult to obtain a consistent amount of primos constantly at end game, but you can still obtain them easily through events, abyss, daily commissions. Even chests if you still haven’t fully explored. Its worth ur time to start, it may be tough to adjust but once you do you most likely won’t regret it

Woah, my, god.. what kind of game is this?!. (YOU MUST PLAY THIS BC IT IS LITERALLY THE BEST GAME EVER, THANK YOU SO MUCH MIHOYO GOD BLESS U I HOPE WE GET SNEZHNAYA IN 6.0!!!) Genshin Impact — an anime styled fighting-MMORPG game, with its amazing visuals, accurate damage counters, intensive lore bombs, god, where do I begin?? No wonder it has so much gigabytes. The journey of your character(s) is very smooth, I liked how we slowly progressed from Mondstadt to Natlan, and soon Snezhnaya (SPOILERS!!) We also had to fight a lot of people. Which was nice, and pretty cool. *insert damage counter saying 40k*, but only one thing. WHY CANT WE HAVE QUESTS SO THAT WE CAN GET THESE CHARACTERS EASILY..?? You know how we got the characters back in Mondstadt? JUST BY DOING QUESTS. Why can’t we do that for EVERY character?? And some people are very unlucky in the wishing page, where I saw one person have 90 pity, yet they got Qiqi. I know that getting characters is not that easy but grinding primogems is very tedious. But other than that everything’s pretty nice! Especially Enkanomiya’s and Khaenri’ahs lore bomb. (brb making fake scenarios), and also the memes in there were honestly funny ngl. It’s a totally original game, completely innovative.

An Honest Review. Genshin is a beautiful game; visually speaking. And after a year of playing, gotta say the disappointment is immeasurable. There are glaring issues still present since the beginning of the game and only more have popped up since. Whether it’s a small bug like Kokomi’s walk on water glitch or the everlasting bugs with Dvalin. Larger issues remain unfixed while smaller issues are retconned. The recent 2.1 story itself is full of plot holes and while I’m mostly forgiving I can’t overlook how mediocre this 1 year long wait has been. Then the big 1, this has only added fuel to the fire. What we’ve gotten is no different from any other patch seen this far, it’s not special, oh wait no I get an extra 40 gems from watching a play I could see in the archives. Don’t get me wrong props to the team that worked on it, specialising each version must have taken a lot of time. Unfortunately, I can look at this information any time I wanted, and to top it off you get sent to a web browser that runs it so slow and laggy. There’s still no login event it’s all out of game, and to top it off everything is time gated and locked. What I did for the anniversary is the same thing I’ve been doing on any other day, you would never guess that it was a special day. This patch has been no different to any other. I hope to see this game improve because it can be fun and I hope to change this review when it can show instead of tell.

Thank you. Although there are many improvements that need to be made in Genshin, I am thankful to the devs and all those who have contributed to Genshin. I am also thankful that mhy has begun listening to their community. Genshin impact is a stunning game, from the beautiful music, incredible visuals and very amazing characters and story. The effort the devs have put into creating atmosphere and depth within their open world is amazing, how you can explore, climb and swim every corner of teyvat. Inazuma is a great example of how every small detail counts, how they use colours to illicit a certain mood, small particles to create depth and sound design to immerse you into their world. Liyue and Monstadt are exceptional to begin with, but the improvement between those two and inazuma leaves me extremely excited for the future of Genshin Impact. I am also so excited to discover to story they plan to tell through their game, and perhaps once their main story is done, expand beyond teyvat?

4 and a half stars (just a few problems). This is a great game, I love the scenery, and the graphics in this game is amazing, there is one thing though, I only got this game because i thought you just ran around looking at the scenery and living life as a character from the game (or something like that) but anyways without the storyline it wouldn’t really be “Genshin impact” (I hope this is making sense). One thing I definitely don’t like is that you have to do an ascension quest to ascend you adventure rank, I’m stuck on rank 25 because of this, and I don’t think it’s fair for people who don’t exactly know what they’re doing. Finally I just want to say that MOST of this game is PG rated, but if your under the age of 9 or something I suggest you don’t get this game just yet, the traveller kind of bothers me now, and Lisa would make most people uncomfortable (including me), and that lady that makes perfume l _ l, but anyways without all of that it’s a pretty good game, I would suggest it

THE BEST GAME EVER!!!. This game is really amazing and I have gotten all of my friends who can play, play this game. It is just REALLY addicting. I really appreciate how much time Mihoyo you has spent to perfect the game it is right now. Let me tell you something, my best friend who is a total”NOT ANIME FAN” she hates anime, doesn’t understand it and all, but once she tried this game, she got addicted to it as well!!! I am really thankful that Mihoyo has spent so much effort and time into this game so that we could enjoy it. Everything is amazing: the voice lines, the character designs, the quests and everything. It’s something that takes a lot of patience to achieve and I think Mihoyo deserves a medal for that. There is literally nothing I am unhappy about. I think Genshin Impact should totally receive 5 out of 5 stars for this. Many people have problems with this game, possibly because their wifi isn’t the best. Trust me. This game is absolutely AMAZING!! I definitely would recommend this game to everyone. I love this game with all my heart. I am literally obsessed with this game.

Best hoyo game in my opinion. It’s is so good, I highly recommend. It’s beautiful and has pretty landscapes and regions. The characters are good too. The community makes it sound so bad but they are just the toxic side like every thing else. If you don’t have storage on the device your reading this on then look on laptop/computer/pc. They have beautiful gameplay for it. I haven’t tried Xbox or PS5 so I can’t tell you about that gameplay but otherwise. I think you should download. Beginner mistake: not saving, seeing character that’s on right now and wish at 160 or 1600. Don’t do that. Especially if your F2P. Cryo get re-runs once so if you search up (cryo/ice character release) and it’s an old one that isn’t released when your on then it might be the last time they are released so wish. If you want to b updated constantly then try the HoYoLab App and you’ll have updates on these hoyo games constantly

🏳️‍🌈. made me gay, not complaining

Diversity. I was super excited to see Sumeru but even the clips from the livestream have all white NPCs…..disappointing ://

lack of account security. Players have discovered many security flaws in how your account information is handled, such as ways to bypass captcha, reset someone’s password, and expose your phone number and email. Mihoyo quietly patches these without offering any explanation to players. The players have been asking endlessly for a proper 2-factor Authentication system, in order to protect their accounts and information. It’s ridiculous that in this year, a service can be released without even the option for 2FA. That’s a basic security requirement. Mihoyo has failed their players. Additionally, the one time Mihoyo has released a statement about security flaws, they took no responsibility and instead blamed players for “sharing accounts or selling accounts”. Despite all the easily available proof on how to brute force into someone’s account - which Mihoyo was clearly aware of, as they quietly fixed it, but STILL chose to blame players in order to save face. Not acceptable. There is no excuse for not allowing players to protect their accounts, especially when money is involved. DO BETTER.

Sumeru. This game is too afraid and scared to add dark-skinned/POC characters to the game. Sumeru is quite literally based off of the Middle East so there should be more than 2 dark skinned characters in the current game and Sumeru should have more dark-skinned characters too like add more dark-skinned characters the fan base will be happier and will spend more money

Lack of Proper Representation. With the recent official character design reveals, I have to bring up the lack of tone variation and highly orientalist costumes present in the officially revealed Sumeru designs. Hoyoverse, by making Sumeru, is trying to create a fictionalized version of a very wide area (I believe it may be based on the Achaemenid Empire, which stretched from western India to Egypt at the height of its power). However, the Achaemenid Empire was made up of manu different cultures ans peoples. A way to “represent” these different peoples is by having Sumeru characters with clear variations in their cultural identities — with each one having proper attire and history relating to the cultural aspect they’re meant to represent. However, Hoyoverse has not done that. The officially released designs of the Sumeru characters lack any skin tone variation, and their clothes seem to be a mix of different cultures within the Achaemenid Empire. They are picking and choosing what they want, instead of creating distinct characters that reflect distinct cultural identities and backgrounds. The character Dori’s clothing is just straight-up Orientalist — picking and choosing stereotypical “Arabian” clothing without actually paying any heed to the cultural clothing they are attempting to represent. This is in contrast to the care paid to differentiating cultural identities and backgrounds within Liyue and Inazuma. I am very disappointed, and hope that Hoyoverse will take steps to rectify this. Skin tone variation (i.e. having more tanned and darker-skinned characters) and accurate cultural representation (in clothing, names, etc) is key when attempting to depict such a vast and diverse area of the world.

Great. I don’t know what the other people are talking about, because I can open up the app just fine, and this is a really great game

Do you not care about us..?. I don’t know what’s happening over there. But the way you don’t listen to us, and how you treat feels like betrayal. It’s disappointing, you know what I’m talking about. 100 primogems? A chance for a cosplay master, or a art major to get an award that doesn’t even be redeemed fully without waiting? Mora?? Like we can’t get that by doing simple things. And you just leave us the 10x pull. Leaving us 30-40 pulls would have been fine. Maybe 60 but 100? That doesn’t even give a pull. I still have faith in you, there still is time.. lots of love

Character skins. Please put the women characters in skins like Kazuha's! The girls are always in dresses, shorts, or fishnet stockings. It would be nice to have a new skin-like-suit on them.

Quit being entitled fūcks.. Game is aight

White Screen of Death. I have the IPAD 3 PRO. Downloaded game and when I open it all I get is a white screen. I’m assuming others have had this happen? Any known fix? Thx

The lack of black Recognition. There’s only 2 black/blasian characters and one hates her skin color and is called scary. (Stereotyping) The new update leaks have no black/blasian characters either. Do better.

Stingy. laziest anniversary event ever

Racist. Complete lack of diversity and white washing characters from regions which are typically known for having darker tones. Uses stereotypical clothes for charters and has mixed the cultures of North Africa, Middle East AND South Asia, completely disregarding their cultural differences. Whereas for other regions in East Asia, they made separate regions for China and Japan.

Best game ever!. This is actually the first (and probably last) time I write a review and it's because this game is simply outrageous and should downright be made illegal: How can you make a PC level game be playable on mobile?! Making this type of good graphics for a phone game is prohibited by every PC gamer community!!! This only has a 4.5 star rating?! How?!?! This is the best app (not game, APP) I have ever installed. Ever. WAIT, THERE'S AN ACTUAL STORY TO THIS GAME AND IT'S NOT JUST KILLING MONSTERS?!?!?!?! WAIT THERE ARE MULTIPLE STORIES IN HERE THAT YOU CAN READ THROUGH THE BOOKS AND READING IS LITERALLY JUST WATCHING A 5K HD VIDEO?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! It's... free? Free?! FREE?!?!?!?!?!?! Ok right now I am just disappointed by the gaming community... 4.5 stars... guys... you disappoint me...

hoyoverse. hoyoverse doesn’t want to give representation in the game. they refuse to give characters ( both playable and non playable ) that take inspiration from places such as southern asia, the middle east, and northern africa, and their respective cultures, the skin tone representation that they need for the nation sumeru which is coming out soon in 3.0 i think. why would you base sumeru after these places and cultures if you are not going to make the effort to actually make the characters look like the people that come from those places?

Best RPG game I ever played on my smartphone. I can’t explain how good this game is. It is better than the Zelda I played on switch. Just to let you know this game need high end smartphone because it is huge like 8gb. I bet you will get addicted after playing it.

Y’all need to stop doing one stars. If you keep rating genshin impact a one star it could get taken down, it doesn’t matter if you don’t like the Anniversary awards. Also xiao and scaramouche are hot😍😍. #mommybeidou

Learn how to appreciate the player base. Mihoyo you are a multi billion dollar company. You make so much and yet you give so little. 100 pulls or even a 5 star from the banner wouldn’t hurt. You wouldn’t be here without us, maybe show us some love and not just maybe 100 primos for being an art major.

Security issues. My account got stolen. I spend a lot of money and time in this game only to get it hacked. There is a security issue in the game that a lot of players are addressing it. Tectone, Mtashed and ZealsAmbition talked about it and it needs to be addressed. Linking your email exposes the user privacy. Linking your phone number is not recommend as well. A solution is to give the user a two authentification factor so that the account is safe and secure. I will change my rating once I recover my account. I already email Genshin support staff but the time that it takes to have a response back is unbelievable. Some say for the problem to be solved and to get the account back takes months. So if you download the game , make sure to secure your account with everything you can link it up to.

Racism. Don’t take one part of a culture and put it onto pasty anime characters. Let the characters embrace the beauty of it.

Review from Beta Player. + Great Graphics + Great Combat & Mechanics + Huge Open World + Long Full Voice Acted Story & Cutscenes + Game will expanded & updated. + Hundreds of hours of exploring. + Can beat the entire game with the free characters. - Gacha Rates are low - Mihoyo is being pretty stingy with Currency Overall: The game is pretty F2P Friendly, and I recommend playing through. Unfortunately if your going F2P your probably gonna be limited on characters.

Awesome stuff!. Im stoked to play this game! I’m already aware of what to expect! Less than a day from now and we get Genshin and all its glory!

Smooth running+great design overall. Definitely one of the best free roam games around to play for free. Not pay to win either, all the premium currency is available to get by grinding. 10/10 worth the download, but most likely won’t run too well on older phone/ IPad models

Natlan Discussion. I'd like to start this off by saying I love Genshin Impact. It has been my favourite video game since I started playing in 2021. I have been playing since the beginning. I have loved the designs, the music, the story, the game itself for many years. But upon seeing the Natlan teaser and trailer, I have become very disgusted with this game and company. Upon Sumeru, I felt similar. Hoyoverse, you have been EXTREMELY disrespectful. You took multiple deities and spirits, and you completely whitewashed them. You made them white. You disrespected deities people have worshipped. You have used multiple cultures, for designs, music, landscapes, etc. But you cannot use the proper skintones? Tans and ashy colours are NOT proper representation. Mispelling names are NOT proper representation. Please, listen to the playerbase. The global, and Chinese. Listen to your voice actors. Listen to the people who have put their time and effort into supporting your game. Please, make this right. Use the proper skintones, respect human culture. You say you want to do representation? You take inspiration from culture, but you don't make the proper representation. For every player, for the sake of your game, make this right.

please listen to your players. the lack of representation and diversity is insane. sumeru was already lacking characters with melanin but for natlan to have no characters of colour? i understand that this is a fake virtual world but many of the nations like fontaine are inspired and use aspects from french culture. so does liyue and inazuma, in fact; they literally are named using the languages that originated from those countries. we are so tired of begging for even a slither of representation, please do better, it doesn’t take a lot and so many people are upset.

culture vultures. They take from cultures, twist, whitewash, and dehumanize it to sell marketable cheap designed characters to people with the taste level of a used sponge. They butchered Sumeru, Natlan and Khaenria. Baited Black and brown players using teased characters like Cyno and Iansan, used Kaeya and Xinyan from patches 1.0, 1.1 to promote a diverse cast in their early marketing but have continuously disregarded to properly depict melanated indigenous communities that they “take inspiration from”.

terrible representation. they based a region on the middle east, but all of the characters from within it reek of orientalism. out of a cast of over forty characters, only two (at the time of writing this, during 2.8) have a skin tone other than white. disappointed, but not surprised coming from hoyoverse.

Hoyoverse. Do better... Hoyoverse we had let you get away with misrepresentation in sumeru we will not let it happen again. I’m devastated, as a person who really enjoys the characters and lore and story, to see another white washed region when it has blatant cultural references to west African, Māori, indigenous and South America. Enough with your colourism. #FIXNATLAN!!

Used to love it. Rampant, unapologetic whitewashing and racism. The only dark-skinned characters are mobs. The characters from the new region, Sumeru (based on south asia) are all extremely pale-skinned, and stereotypical representations of south asian culture.

its just not good. it makes no sense for the sumeru and natlan characters to be represented as theyve been. the lack of diversity is colourist. it's just BAD

I feel bad for the reviews:/. I give this game a 5 star, it deserves more love. It’s good quality and it’s FREE! But many people are arguing about the rewards. The community should give more love. MihoYo is doing there best and I’m fine with the rewards :) keep up the great work mihoYo. -genshin fan :))

Add Representation. Sumeru is based on middle Eastern cultures! There’s no reason for characters from there to be so pale.

Fix Dehya. Fix Dehya

Amazing. Downloaded this game on the new iPad Pro and mini 5 it works great. Can’t wait for the iPhone 12 max to come out and play this on it too.

MEQUISHA MY QUEEN!!!👩🏻‍🦱👩🏻‍🦱👩🏻‍🦱. Every drop of melanin erases a hoyoverse employee!! We must protect the employee’s from melatonin!!!🗣️💥💥💥 Running a way from melanin!! [CHALLENGE LEVEL: SUPER EASY] add melanin to your characters!! [CHALLENGE LEVEL: SUPER IMPOSSIBLE]

VERY HARD TO GET CHARACTERS. Please read this before spending any money on this game!! This game is very very fun and completely able to do free to play. However things slow down exceptionally after adventurer rank 30. The world, the characters, and everything in it like the quests are all amazing and interactive. However the only thing wrong with this game, is that it’s VERY VERY EXPENSIVE to even do a single summon on a banner!! I am a complete free to play player and because of that, I’m completely incapable of getting any characters that I want. Even people who spend hundreds of dollars can simply get very unlucky and not get anyone either, and it feels like a huge waste of money. It’s very unfortunate that such a good game that I absolutely love makes you spend SOOO much money to get anyone at all. So just be warned before spending money that you likely won’t get anything, the rates are horribly low. For a 5 star, it’s about 0.6% if I recall. The rates NEED to be improved because a f2p player like myself and a large portion of the community can’t get anyone.

Racist company. 偷南美人的文化跟英国偷中国文物一样顺手 那么喜欢白皮猪怎么不去舔

Xenophobic to its CORE.. I’m huge fan of genshin, and I’ve been playing since the release. I’ll be talking about the recently shown upcoming sumeru characters as well as a past video you’ve released. I wish to make it known that the poor representation with black and brown characters are very apparent. As well as including stereotypes alongside their character design. If you are going to create regions and characters from different cultures and backgrounds, at least do it correctly. Especially since you did just fine with Chinese and Japanese representation, this shouldn’t be an issue to do. I highly suggest doing more research about the cultures you will be basing it off of- to avoid any future racism and cultural appropriation. Do better. Make sure to have more black and brown representation, and of course do it correctly. Another problem I wish to bring attention to, is the miss use of indigenous culture. I’ve noticed in one the videos released in the past called “MiHoYo tour 2020 (CN) | now with subtitles”- that at minute 1:31 a designer has been seen creating hilichurl dances/movements with what appears to be a video from a powwow dance in the top corner of their screen. Suggesting they’ve been using it as “inspiration”. I suggest respecting indigenous cultures and NOT using their sacred dances for in game enemies. It is unacceptable and it is extremely disrespectful. So please change that.

Needs to give more representation. Has regions based off of places in the world, but when it comes to cultures with People of colour they take the names, and slap it onto characters who are white. But they proceed to use other things from those cultures like in music. Has a limited selection of playable characters with Melanin but countless enemies who do. A racist greedy company.

This game isn’t worth it. I want the hours I spent on this game back.

Colourism. Even if you include accurate and well thought out aspects of different cultures, excluding darker skin tones is excluding the people you base these characters on. It is disappointing to see such a lack of respect for the people and cultures that inspired this game. Please acknowledge this and make changes.

The storage tho…. It literally took so much storage for me too even download the game. Once I finished, it turned out too only be a demo. So I tried too download the full version. After deleting literally everything I could, there still wasn’t enough storage! Good game, but bruh…

Absolute FOOLISHNESS. Sense has chased you for years, but you are faster. What kind of clowns make a dessert area based of countries where the sun is basically marking you with melanin but proceed to make the characters who live in those areas paper white. I’ve seen white girls who dedicate their life to tanning even darker than this, even your OWN PEOPLE are disappointed by these results. This is embarrassment and to all the people still d riding this company, zip up the pants when ur done🤦🏾‍♀️

State of the game and Anniversary. Genshin impact is a game that can be classified as few highs and many lows. Throughout the first year of the game Genshin has experienced numerous changes, with only two major changes impacting standing out: the adjustments to Electro and Geo resonance and play. These allowed their respective units to function at or almost to he level of their pyro and cryo counterparts (Zhongli excluded). Given this, there are still many problems with the current roster and the damage ceiling of specific units. Specifically electro damage ceiling and lack of damage modifiers for reactions involving anything geo and electro. These are but a few of the issues with the elements themselves and not the units that use them. The lows, to name a few, are the lack of log in rewards (not tied to a forum site log in), abysmal commission rewards, lack of story in game through the main story, and lack of end game content. As it stands, Genshin is the only gacha game that I have played that requires a log in to a separate platform for log in rewards. The primogems, mora, and adventure exp from commissions are lacking to say the least. Free to players often need to save months in advance in order to guarantee a specific unit, with a lack of a road map this is quite hard to predict what they may want. The mora itself is not enough to level an artifact past level 12, if that. The adventure exp, well, is pitiful beyond AR 50. The lack of story is astounding to say the least, Honkai, another gacha by miHoYo has much more cutscenes and dialogue between characters that fill out the narrative of each section. Genshins main story quest feels too quick and leaves no room for he development of characters, often leaving that to the separate ‘character quests’. More often than not these do no pertain to the current narrative, rather explain who they are and how they act. While not a bad concept, these characters do not act or change with the current narrative, rather it seems once the story introduces a character, your conversation with them during the two-three quests they appear will be all the story they receive. As for end game content, there are two choices: abyss or material farming, which both for a free to play player will only take around an hour respectively (or even less depending on the account). In summary (and if you skipped to the bottom), the flaws of this game out weigh the benefits. It is a wonderfully crafted world with brilliant gameplay and design, but with a team that lacks devotion to let it shine. I would say for miHoYo to step up their game, but it’s evident over the past year they do not care.

😔. no dottore= really bad game 😕

Lack of tan skinned EAs representation.. The new characters leaked for the upcoming Sumeru region make a terrible job at representing the residents of the countries it has been inspired by. In all of the leaks, only a singular character has somewhat of a tan (which is still awfully pale) and the Archon for this region literally glows. For a region inspired by countries with darker skinned people, it’s utterly disappointing. Many of us Genshin Impact players are extremely dissatisfied by those character designs. We wish you did better, Hoyoverse.

Could be the perfect game but-. Unfortunately resin exists and the devs refuse to listen to us when we say resin is obsolete in a game that has no pvp. It accomplishes nothing but discouraging people from playing because every tiny bit of progress is gated behind either resin, time, exp book/mora scarcity or all 3. Timegating is fine but the resin needs to go. Let us grind if we want to. Also the gacha rates are awful, but since you don't NEED to use the gacha to progress I'll let it slide, I guess. Actually that's a good thing because even if I did pull new characters it would take about a month+ for me to make them usable. (Because of what? Resin.) Don't waste your time with this game, it really is charming at first but looks can be quite deceiving. It'll start making you feel like you're wasting your time soon enough because of how little progress you can make everytime you log in. Shame.

so well done. I’m loving this game so much so far. It does crash often on my iPhone 8, but the game is good enough for me to look past that.

Stereotypes, lack of diversity, and racism. I love the character designs, but there are a few issues I have. There are very few dark skinned characters. The fact that Xinyan, one of the TWO dark skinned characters in genshin is literally a full on stereotype. Loud, scary, etc. And in your other game, honkai impact. There’s a character named Carole, not sure what her last name is. But the way you wrote her personality is absolutely disgusting. She complains about being “too dark” despite being tanned, and her mom is extremely masculine which is also a stereotype of the black community. Plus Carole doesn’t have a dad. You need to stop with the stereotypes and make characters like your light skinned ones that aren’t stereotyped with a regular personality but dark skinned. It’s honestly not that difficult, there are people out there willing to spend their life savings if a dark skinned character is released, so you don’t have to worry about genshin whales who are colourist who’ll refuse to spend a single penny on them. Your soon to be released nation Sumeru is based on the Middle East, by making the characters light skinned you’re basically ignoring the darker skinned middle easterns, and of course they’ll feel left out. Which is disrespectful and non inclusive, you should’ve made at least half of your upcoming sumeru characters dark skinned, or at least tanned. In future updates please try to make non stereotypical dark skinned characters, representation is extremely important. Another racist thing in your game is Eula’s family, she would’ve been 100% better if her family members weren’t slave owners. There are tons of black people in your fandom that are uncomfortable with this and Eula herself, I understand that Eula is against this and her family in general, but it just makes her look like a white saviour. The slavery part of her family is extremely unnecessary and we already know that her clan are bad people. Please avoid any racist parts of history when writing your characters’ backstories, it’s not difficult.

Whitewashing and racism. I have been playing this game for years and I’ve only seen it get worse. The company is racist and poorly portrays Latin American and African cultures with whitewashed characters. Enough said, very disappointed.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great game! But…. I’ve had Genshin Impact for about 2 years now and I’ve only just got caught up with the archon quests. This took a lot of dedication for me, even to just get through the chasm quest. I strictly remember asking my friend to help me with the the quest to get to inuzama (or is it inazuma?) because it was just too long and boring. Now, I get how this may not be a fair review because I have ADHD and the attention span of a squirrel, but that’s not the entire reason I gave it 4 stars. The grind you need to do to get primos and good artifacts makes many players lose their interest, including me. It’s fun up until you realize that your build is absolutely terrible and you need to farm artifacts for days just to get good stats. Primos on the other hand, it’s basically “the grind is real(ly miserable)”. For F2P players (unlike me), it’s merely impossible to get a 10 pull unless your really determined and dedicated. I used to find myself searching and digging for chests so much for primos that it makes up for the majority of the expiration percentage. Fountain did make it easier to find chests and get primos easier though. Overall, this game is wonderful. The quality of the music, quests, characters, scenery, gameplay, and plot is great. I’d definitely suggest this game to friends.

How I feel. I’m just going get to the point I love genshin and the story but the fact that ya’ll have all these different regions with new cultures in each of them like Natlan and Sumeru and your telling me you can’t even add at least one dark skin character?? And I don’t mean an essence of a tan or slightly tanned type character I MEAN A RICHLY MELANATED character. Why is it ya’ll have a whole “Nigerian” based character and he’s not even SLIGHTLY tanned nah the man is white as paper these are characters you’re basing off of from people’s cultures and if you can give the enemies darker skin and locs why can’t you give it to actual characters??. See ya’ll have the colors in stock but ya’ll not using them why?? I promise you if ya’ll were to make a dark skin character a lot of people would be wishing. I haven’t even been playing the game as much but I told myself If I see a dark skin character I’m logging back on and farming. Why because it would be very surprising and shocking to see darker character from ya’ll. That being said I feel a lot of these characters could of had darker skin not even just in sumeru and natlan dark skin poc are national you could genuinely have a dark skin character in monstadt just because its based off of Germany doesn’t mean you can’t have poc there it’s called being diverse 🙌🏼. Which ya’ll have down when it comes to different regions but ya’ll aren’t potraying diversity with darker skin tones which is honestly not a good look for Genshin.

A pleasant surprise to play!. When I first saw the game, I thought I’d be able to customize my character in similar ways to other games I’d played (changing physical appearance, ability, etc.); yet as I played the game, I found myself still enjoying it despite not having this ability. The story, animation style, battle tactics, monsters, and characters are all lovable and delightful! It feels like being in a movie or playing one of my Xbox games. Really well done to the creators. So far, my favorite character is Lisa for both her charm and powerful lighting strikes during combat. Keep up the great work! I would like to suggest the ability to possibly change clothing on characters as well so that it feels more personalized if that’s alright. One downside I will note is having to walk everywhere and how gliding takes up physical energy. I can understand swimming and such, but gliding? Yeah right. Anyway, walking around to different locations without having something shoot at or lunge at you is a bit much. Overall, I still enjoy it despite the walking aspects. Perhaps you guys could create different elemental mounts? Like not your traditional horses and stuff. I’m talking about like birds, lions, or unique creatures like that. Again, I’m no game designer and I figure they don’t want to hear my peas and cues, but just food for thought. Still love the game and the graphics. Well done!

This game is awesome but a little warning?. I love genshin, at this time I’ve only played for a couple days but I’m alr hooked, my one Hangup was that it was so hard to get registered. Also I wish that hoyoverse would tell you when u download the app that you wouldn’t be able to access the full version with the storage you had. Thankfully now I have the app on another device that has lots of storage, the graphics are freaking amazing and even though I’m a little confused I have tutorials and my friends (who also play genshin) to ask for help. The characters and storyline is amazing, and I hope this review gets more people to play this. Because really, you dont need to be an anime nerd to absolutely love this game. One of the best (is not THE best game) I have ever played, (and I’ve only played for a couple days!) the amount of detail in this game is amazing (just wanna reiterate) it’s got raw materials scattered around the environment, they even added animals, like crab and fish and other creatures that are probably made up. The music and soundtrack in this game also makes it feel like a real world! I love the camera feature too, it lets you really capture to essence of this beautiful scenery into your camera roll. -Toast_Demon

Mihoyo/hoyolab/hoyoverse, please get your priorities checked.. So, to start off, Like many other people, you should prioritize players’ opinions instead of doing stuff nobody asked for. For example, many people are complaining about the resin system, though this is not much of a problem for me, it is for people with a high Adventure Rank. The banner system and story is nice and organised, but you should make it easier to get 5 stars, or atleast make a banner that in which you can only get characters, Also, The game is great but honestly, get your priorities straight, or else you might lose your mobile community. For example, most people are not gonna have enough storage space to be able to update the game once you finally finish the game. It says that the game itself is 4gb but in reality, it download over 14gb of data. You might say thats normal, You might be right, but thats an absurd amount of expectancy of determination from mobile players, people who bought 1tb of storage space on an iPhone are very lucky, but im not one of those people, also, it says that your game only supports iPhone 8 and beyond, but im on an iPhone 6s from 2015, and the game works just fine. Side note: i used to play on ps4, but not now.

I love this game!. Hi! You may know me as K o k I c h i or LunaMoon and yes I do play genshin all my pics are from my gameplay but let’s get onto the best things about the game, THE GRAPHICS KILL ME WITH BEAUTY ITS WAYYY BETTER THAN POKÉMON UNITE GRAPHICS 2. I love the characters and the land of teyvat every detail is the best! From the detail to the anything in teyvat and the detail on the characters detail it just- wow I never saw anything like this before! 3. Oh my lord did someone send me to heaven? Cause OH MY GOD I CAN PULL (I have a pulling addiction-) and pulling for the characters I love and being haunted by tighnari on my main account just I’m so happy! 4. THE CHAT EMOJIS- NAHH- I NEED THEM FOR OTHER GAMES I NEED ALL THE PACKS IMA FLEX THEM IN MY USERNAMES JUST THERE SO CUTE my favorites have to be the heizou kazuha (leaf kazoo) and xiao 5. Ok- i know these are complements yes but I really want to send pictures in chat like- I got funny tartaglia zhongli and lumine photos and I want to annoy the heck outa my friends with them and let them why i nearly have sanity but- I never had my own electronic sooo I don’t have a number and if I don’t- can’t send them it.. so it would be very great to have pictures allowed in chat! Now I don’t have anything else to say but I will get more to say someday bye! And hope you have a amazing day! Sorry this is very long

Help pls it keeps saying “get out” and it’s so annoying, is that normal because I cannot tolerate it anymore I’ve been trying for 2-3 days, pls fix this problem and also I’ve been wanting to try out genshin impact for the first time because I saw lots of videos about it on TikTok so I wanted to try it out for myself, I dislike that I’ve tried a few days and nothing worked I even tried googling why it kept saying “get out” and it showed no results I should’ve known…heh…it’s not cool, so pls fix this problem or I will blow up the toilet with my chocolate droppings that turned into straight up liquid chocolate and splattered the whole toilet seat and inside, and pls pls stop making these bugs get in, it’s quite annoying if u ask me, pls help I’m on the toilet tryna type this I’m blowing it up ahhhhh… ughhhhh… arghhhhhh…Auhhhhhhhhhh OMG it blew… liquid chocolate is every where genshin impact- san pls help ur UwU e- kitten… I don’t think I can be without u genshin impact- San… pls stay with me for a little while *pouts a little* pls genshin impact San fix the bugs… *looks at genshin impact San with puppy eyes* can u also tuck me in bed I’m scared… ur my alpha wolf pls don’t leave me alpha *howls* AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WOOOF WOOF BARK BARK… thank u genshin impact San I luv u so much *kisses genshin impact San on the cheeks* ur my alpha don’t ever leave me again😣😣😣😣 awoooooooooo I’m ur little e- kitten remember no one else can have me except for u😖😖😖😖

Predatory Gacha setup. This game is really fun. For a game that is pretty much free to play it is super high quality. The quests and storyline is interesting the gameplay is exciting and the characters are great. The game has improved at lot over time. I’m glad the developers are listening to the players and improving parts of the game that people aren’t satisfied with. But, there is one personal problem I have with this game and that is the Gacha aspect of this game. I personally dislike the way this game is advertised to children but encourages in-game spending. This used to be a really huge problem before the developers changed the way in-game rewards were given out. But, still I see it all the time. I just really wish there wasn’t such an emphasis on spending real money to get characters and weapons. I even see it in the community, people are encouraging others to spend inordinate amounts of real money to receive fake rewards. And because this game is advertised like a game for children I personally find it upsetting to see this kind of irresponsible spending shown to children. The strange Gacha aspects of this game take away some of the enjoyment and are dangerous for children who don’t understand yet the consequences of spending money on games like this. To me, it seems like this game is presenting a gambling addiction under the guise of a shiny new toy.

Absolutely Astonishing... but. This game is a whole wonderland of amazing and gorgeous. The graphics are exquisite and the fact that such perfect quality graphics can run at such a high frame rate on a phone is just incredible. Truly some of the most difficult feats a game can manage, yet this one does. On the PC, the experience is even better. The soundtrack, the individuality between the characters (birthdays, names, voices, stories, etc.), the multitude of different weapons, all with different animations with different characters; it's all just so wonderful. Unfortunately, while this game is definitely a 5 star rating, in my opinion, it could use some work. Keybinds, while they're all customizable, fail to recognize mouse buttons as keys, and therefore render my mouse buttons pointless. I'd like to use those buttons, y'know. Also, I think the game could do well with more outfit choices. Currently, only Barbara and Jean have different purchasable outfits (to my knowledge), and as someone who looks forward to character customization almost as much as the whole game, I'd like a larger selection. Those are just my opinions, though! Still a beautiful game. Growing up on World of Warcraft, this game reminds me a lot of it, and that makes me like this game even more.

Needs balancing. I’ll start by saying this is a great game. Seriously fun with a wide variety of characters great story minus the Aranara. But when you you reach world rank 6 stay there there’s no benefit to going higher other than being absolutely destroyed by enemies higher than you. Things necessary for your characters abilities are on a weekly rotation which realistically isn’t too bad, but when you literally grind the same enemies into dust a thousand times for one characters abilities to reach 10 it makes you begin to wonder when you’ll have fun again. Leveling your characters can be a bear it’d be better if actually fighting with them and the like actually gave decent experience but it is so insignificantly small that you’d have an easier leveling up Pokémon using xp share. For the weapons you can only level them up with items that you can craft but again by the time you reach world rank 8 your already screwed and there’s no bonus drops of rewards whatsoever. Right now double drops is in effect and my mother and I are getting litteray bottom of the barrel ability upgrade books and we need higher rarity to even upgrade I do not want to spend hours to grind out a single ability upgrade. I do not hate this game but it is my recommendation to everyone and anyone DO NOT GO PAST WORLD RANK 6 you will have a bad time

TAKES UP SO MUCH SPACE. This game is great. The story, the visuals, the characters, the voice acting everything having to do with the actual gameplay is amazing and I love it so much. But… there is a huge flaw that come with this game and that is that it takes up a massive amount of space on what ever device you are playing on especially for Mobil players. I actually can’t fathom how people are able to consistently play this game on mobil without having to delete every other app on their phone or other Mobil device. The game itself as listed in the description only takes up like 3.7 GB of storage but once downloaded you need another probably….. 10 - 15 GB for the documents and data and even if you have that much space with every game update (that comes every 1-2 months) you need to download more data consisting of like another 3 GB each update. (All of this info pertains to Mobil but my friend downloaded it on PS4 and it was 90GB of data). Another thing is that if you don’t update the game you can’t play at all, it locks you out until you have enough room to update because most of the updates are story based and keep you moving on in the game. I really wish it it wasn’t such a huge game, I mean I understand why, but I actually can’t play because there just isn’t enough room on my iPad to keep updating even with almost EVERY SINGLE APP deleted.

I’m happy, but you might not be. I preordered this game and forgot about it until it popped up after being released. I tried it out, having played many games on my phone before and didn’t expect much. I was quickly blown away by the visuals. I got into the story, which I don’t usually, and have found many ways to play the game if one objective becomes tiring. However, there are 2 main things that I think should be kept in mind when determining if this game is right for you. The first is that this is a full fledged console game that is also on mobile. Therefor, the file size is going to be quite large. I think like, 8gbs for me currently? It being a full game on mobile also means that the controls can be difficult. I’m fine with them now, but it took a while. Second, keep in mind that mihoyo would like money for this game. It’s f2p, but that does come with the drawbacks of less and lower quality characters and equipment. But I play the game the explore, follow quest lines, and kind of just chill. If you’re expecting something special/new every time you play, you’ll have to spend money. For a free game with a million things to do/ focus on/ explore, I’ve had a ton of fun and been overwhelmingly impressed. *iphone SE 2nd gen*

AMAZING GAMEEE JUST ONE ISSUE. To everyone who rated Genshin 1 star yesterday, I hope you know that changed literally nothing. The game does not premote pedos. Venti, for example, takes on the form of a human that is NOT a minor. The same is for ganyu and xiao. Neither of their human forms are minors. Of course, there are charecters like klee and diona, but they have nothing offensive other then their skin color. This brings me to an issue. During the recent Sumeru event, we got charecters that should have been darker-skinned. However, we got charecters like Kusanali that were whiter that chalk. Pleas make charecters have darker skin. But, its an amazing game. To everyone saying that there is not enough content, this game was not designed for you. It was designed for people to get online to do their commissions or a bit of the archon quest during a quick break for maybe 5-10 minutes. Also, you have to take into account all of the work they usually do. This game has INSANE graphics and has mouthwatering food, a wide spread of personality through charecters, and a huge map plus a customizable teapot to build in. Plus, genshin is now giving us long awaited charecters and a entire anime. Although some things are wrong, this game is altogether an amazing platform.

Runs pretty good on mobile 💃. I think the game is super fun and in the past few weeks I’ve already gotten to ar 31! I love the characters and story lines, the only complaints I have are about the gacha and the mobile app. The gacha system isn’t too bad compared to other but it definitely isn’t the best. To get a 5 star character you want is extremely hard if you don’t have luck. Having to spend money for more primo gems to get something good is inevitable. Every 90 wishes guarantees you a 5 star but that’s only if you’re wishing on the same banner. And that 5 star isn’t guaranteed to be a character. The free characters you get while playing the game are descent, but the characters obtained from wishes are definitely more desirable. The mobile app is great except occasionally it glitched and kicks me out of the game. The loading screen had been working fine until recently, whenever I try to play I have to wait on the white loading screen for about 2 minutes before actually being able to play. Which isn’t bad but it definitely isn’t practical. The other thing is when one of the story lines includes “animations scenes” or some bigger scenes it always glitches on my iPad. Which is such a bummer because I would love to see the beautiful scenes 🥺. My I pad is fairly new being a gen 7 so I guess there are some glitches to be expected since it’s mobile and not a pc. But overall I love this game to death and the cute characters that come along :))

So.. To start off, great game.. I'm starting this off saying 4 stars because although i play on pc and never have storage issues, i do know when i use my phone it lags so hard my phone literally glitches. Other than that it's insanely good. Mihoyo/Hoyoverse had done so much with the storyline and the cutscenes and graphics are absolutely insane. The storyline gets me everytime. It's immersive. I go into every patch update thinking, "ah okay i'll play for an hour or two just to get the new island unlocked". Suddenly it's 5am.! There is just so so so much to do it's amazing. I've been playing since patch 1.5 (AR57), as of writing this we're in patch 2.5 and this game has grown so much. I don't think newer players will ever get bored. 8/10 in my book. Well you might ask, "why not a 10/10.?" well for one the storage issue but also the lack of primogem sources. I pay into this game a lot so i personally don't care but for f2p and low spenders it makes it incredibly hard to get good units, including 5 stars and sig weapons. Other than that I love this game. I've been playing for almost a year and i do not regret it. If you're looking for a fun, immersive, game that will lock you in, PLAY GENSHIN IMPACT. and if you EVER struggle.. well that's what co-op and endgame players like me are there for. Step into the vast world of Teyvat and have some fun.!

Incredible Game, Company slowly turning players against them. I have enjoyed majority of my time playing this game, it checks all the boxes of: Puzzles, Adventure, Collecting, Dungeon Delving, Secrets, Lore, Beautiful Scenery and Characters and Art. Should you play this game? YES, it’s free…Unless you have a gambling problem. We all should know by now how addicting “Gacha Games” are, you see a character/weapon you want and you try and try again rolling for them but can’t seem to get them and finally you just decide hey maybe a few more rolls will get me them if I buy more premium currency…and just like that you fall into a trap. But besides that, it’s like Mihoyo (game dev) keeps making the wrong decisions. Between anniversary rewards fiasco, the current fiasco (KFC glider event, just look it up) and having great in game events that are TEMPORARY even though having them permanent would have gotten them praise from the community. Then also not fixing bugged characters/content that the community has stated OVER AND OVER for them. It’s just a mess beyond other things I won’t mention…I’ve lost faith in spending money in game. Besides all this crap, if you can stay free 2 play, and get past the slow beginning of story and leveling adventure rank, this game is phenomenal…and I am sure you will love it. P.S. do not look on social media for Genshin, there are extremely toxic people.

Great but bad practice. The game itself is absolutely amazing. Good combat and what not, but the business practices are outright horrendous. It’s not bad because it’s a Gacha game, that in it of itself is loot box territory but it’s the fact that the company outright refuses to listen to community feedback. They make it almost impossible to truly have the most fun without spending money. Not only that but, rewards for very big events are laughably inconsiderate. Take the anniversary situation for example, you can only get anything truly worthwhile if you’re an artist or content creator, well newsflash not everyone is. And even then your chances of actually getting anything are still statistically almost 0%. I don’t understand what their aversion to giving the community literally anything is. They have never really given the community as a whole anything that great. It even lures you into thinking you’ll get something cool in your birthday only to find that when that day comes you get a cake that really doesn’t actually do anything. Like I get it you have to make money so you can’t constantly give away free stuff, but every once in a while wouldn’t hurt you’ve made billions already. I have had this game since it launched and never have I seen them do anything really all that good for the community, in respect to events or anything, in fact most events are also community run, they don’t actually do anything!!! It is extremely frustrating!

Maybe increase the drop rates?. I really love this game but sometimes I kinda feel a little bad about some people complaining about the drop rates. I agree that this game is an amazing game for a free one. Which I think would probably make it one of the best mobile games. Although this is kinda of a complaint, this doesn’t mean I don’t like the game. You should keep in mind that a lot of games have flaws and I know people are always trying to fix them. Since there will be a lot more regions and places to explore, you would probably need better characters and equipment right? Since the game will get a whole lot harder in the future (and have a ton of more content), I feel like increasing drop rates or adding things for f2p people who don’t want to put money in the game. I’ve been playing since the release and even though I don’t always play, I’ve only gotten a 5 star character and sword. And I have only spent my primo gems on summoning which I think is saying something. I do know that 5 star characters and weapons aren’t always the best but usually, they have good base stats and abilities. I do like using 4 star characters though. Although, keep in mind that this issue will probably be resolved in the future because there will probably be more chances to get better characters and weapons and 4 stars aren’t all that bad anyways.

Amazing Game, but…. I adore this game, the controls are easy, there’s a lot to learn but it’s made fun with balanced rewards and a lot to explore! I play the game every night together with my family and we make it a family thing, I’ve even recommended the game to my friends. That’s where I run into my own personal issue, the storage space bug. I have to assume it’s a bug of some kind because I recommended the game to my best friend who had shown interest in becoming a player. However, even after buying extra phone storage space, restarting their phone, deleting and reinstalling the app, quite literally everything I can think of, it still won’t let my friend download the full game. They can play the demo and load it up, but it gets to about 55% before it pops up a Insufficient Storage Space Error: 9005. I know the game is hefty, I mean, the map is huge and all interactive with multiple levels. That’s part of the appeal to me, but the only thing that makes sense is that it’s a bug preventing her from downloading the game. Until this is fixed, I unfortunately cannot give it a full five stars. If anytime has any idea how to fix this, please let me know! I adore this game and I want to get a lot more people to play it, but it makes me a bit nervous knowing that them not even being able to download the full game will be a factor in whether or not they play.

Great game! But-. Ok I LOVE this game. The story is super immersive and really cool, not to mention that the gameplay its self is really enjoyable! But, it takes up sooooo much space. My device has 32 GB of storage and over half of it is dedicated to this game. I can’t update it anymore because of the sheer magnitude of every new update. And this problem is probably the only one you’ll see causing significant issues if you play mobile, like me. The game runs fine, in fact, amazing for a game being played on mobile. But Unless you have loads of space, I suggest you play it on PC or console. Other then the fact I can no longer play the game unless i upgrade my storage, I 100% recommend it. Though, take my warning and don’t end up in my situation. I’ve played the game on all platforms, and while mobile works best for me, PC is good to, if you know the controls. Playing it on consoles also works, and that’d be my second method to play. And once you make an account with Mihoyo you don’t have to worry about making more, since one account works for all platforms. So that’s super convenient. All in all this is more of a warning/suggestion to those who want to get this game on mobile. It works great, but make sure you have the space.

Good game but. . .. Tl:dr Beautiful game but sucky leveling system and impossible special items. So I downloaded this game because I’d heard and seen so many good things about it. The graphics, open world and storyline are absolutely stunning. But the storyline came at a huge time expense. Complete the first chapter by level 3? Can’t proceed in the story till level 5. Finished chapter 2 by level 8? Sorry can’t continue till level 11. And believe me when I say the leveling system is slower than cold molasses. It took me literally 3 weeks of clearing daily quests and side quests before I could finish chapter 2. And another 4 weeks before I could finish chapter 3. Then there’s the issue of the character and weapon enhancing system. After a certain point weapons and characters need special items in order to continue advancing in power. Well let me tell you after searching and unlocking the current entire map (at the time anyway) and trading with people and crafting and going to the in game shops that exchanged special items for the items you needed I could not get my characters/weapons to progress any further to the point where I kept dying every 2 seconds. If you’re willing to put these things aside for the story and graphics then be my guest. But most people don’t have the patience to sit there and grind out something and get nowhere. That’s why I gave this a 3 star.

Great game overall, few flaws. Hello I’m gonna start this off by saying this game is great, I absolutely love the graphics and the work you put into all the characters, bosses, etc. But there is a few problems I do have with the game, past AR 45 (leveling system that they use for the game) has not much content other then waiting for new characters and quests to come out, mostly while we wait all we really have is collecting all the oculi (used for leveling up statues of the seven) and chests which really isn’t that fun to do. Now don’t get me wrong this is a great game and the graphics are amazing and all around is a pretty good game yet the game lacks content after you reach AR 45 and above once you add more regions though then the game will be more fun and interactive out of the 356 days I’ve had this game I truly enjoyed every minute of it. Overall great game, few flaws, also if your expecting me to bash them over the anniversary rewards that’s no way to get what you want and if I’m gonna be honest getting a free 5 star (typically the best characters) takes the joy of getting it away if you already know your gonna get it. Have a wonderful day developers and anyone who’s reading this and continue making this game a wonderful experience thank you!

Fun but no endgame. Genshin impact is a very fun game to play at your leisure. It has everything one could ask from a game; great looking characters, exploration, monster farming, and etc.. but genshin impact struggles the most with it’s endgame content. It has already been a year and spiral abyss is the only true endgame content in the game. The game is updated every 6 weeks and there is events so it’s not totally dry. Big but though, what is the point of farming and grinding when we have nothing to test our artifacts/abilities? People will start being able to easily full star spiral abyss and then that’s basically it for endgame content. There is no reason to farm or progress any further optimizing builds and everything. The only thing that keeps this game alive is it’s consistent updates and events. If this game wasn’t updated as frequently as it is then it would’ve been dead after a few months. Overall it’s a fun experience until you reach endgame and can easily clear spiral abyss. After that you will be consistently doing daily commissions and using all of your resin day by day which gets boring real fast. The events sometimes are fun but they are really hit or miss. I recommend this game to those who want to casually explore the story and contents of this beautiful game, not recommended for those looking for an endgame hard difficulty content.

A masterpiece!. This game has a lot of engineering in its creation. Very well balanced for long term play. It is not pay to win, that is balanced as well, dumping cash doesn’t get you much and not fast. This game is designed to give you long play times and many distractions to draw things out even more. With world puzzles big and small, hidden treasures for days, the grind is completely manageable if you pace yourself. There is something for everyone in this game. The regular events will keep you entertained and distracted from all of the other places you still want to go explore. This dev team really has big thinkers behind them. The cons must be strategic as well. Paimon has a secret purpose to make things easy for them. So, be nice and try to just let it go. The Hoyolab companion app is a must when you start to feel lost, they thought of everything there too. Basically, if you find a moment when you ask yourself how am i supposed to ever X? There is a way, you just didn’t find it yet or think to look, it is covered in companion app. Careful, it feels like cheating sometimes. A must play! Open world, co-op options, non linear, land puzzle galore fest. Oh yeah, lots of storyline plots and quests. Immersive role play interactions as well.

No diversity. The game is supposed to represent different cultures and people around the world and yet there is zero diversity in skin tones. many say it's no big deal and it doesn't matter but if it's not a big deal then why can't they do it? it should not be hard to let people who are known to be darker Be darker. you can't take the more "acceptable" parts of a culture and disrespect the rest. in 2024 we all know the color of your skin doesn't make you neither more nor less and yet they are pushing the belief that only pale/white characters will sell. the small amount of characters we have atm (kaeya, dehya, cyno) were given boring/bad kits and are also very stereotypical. i don't think i should have to explain to anyone who fits the age range of whom this game is aimed to why stereotypical characters are bad. genshin has done a wonderful job storytelling and character development in the past, they absolutely have the ability to make a beautifully diverse game that can portray those different cultures that they are using in their game, but unfortunately they aren't. and this also isn't a problem with just natlan, because honestly it's bare minimum to ask for a nation that isn't eurocentric to show diversity in skin tones, because people from said eurocentric nations can also be dark. there is so much potential with the amount of reach the game has. an international game shouldn't be limited to pleasing their home demographic. hoyoverse has to change.

Perfection 👌. Hoyoverse hits every single mark when it comes to an RPG game. Fighting, lore, wonderful characters, and a gigantic map with beautiful scenery. The lore in each area is divine with heart wrenching twists and turns. It puts any regular book to shame. (Harry Potter is shaking) Dedication is also a large part of the game. Having many quests can be overwhelming, but this game is perfect for those who have nothing to do during the summer or the Night Owls who need something other than scrolling and channel surfing. The characters are magnificent with wonderful outfits and colors. Every element allows the character fun mechanics and awesome combat. The characters provide enjoyment depending on what you are looking for. Most (such as the 7 which you’ll find out in game who they are) have immaculate stories each telling of their experiences with tragedy or joy. The scenery takes inspiration from real places in the world. The current inspirations are Germany, China, Japan, The Middle East/deserts, and France. Every single place looks as if it were taken straight from a high budget anime. The fighting is a lot like your average games where you can encounter enemies and engage in strategic and complicated war. All in all, I recommend to anyone who needs entertainment or an average weeb.

I’m not sure. Ok so I’ve been playing genshin around early 2021. And let me tell you, this game made my boredom leave me. It was still pandemic season so I was still stuck at home. Every time i finished online school I would go straight to genshin because of how fun it is. But there are pros and cons. Let me start with the pros. The first thing is, that we have an open world and can explore. And we get primogems just for exploring teyvat. Sometimes when we finish some events we a get free character or primogems. Which can be used for wishing/resin. Same thing with quests. Now for the cons, the first thing I especially want to talk about is the difficulty for the quests. Some of the quests can be so confusing and so hard for no reason? The first 3 nations quest were easy. But, when the chasm came out. The difficulty when up and up. Which makes things for players difficult. And sometimes have to search up tutorials because on how hard it is. Sumeru and the chasm are hard quests. And I’m still stuck in the chasm because of how hard it is. I’m not saying to make all the quests easy, I’m just saying to make it less difficult for new players or players that are coming back to the game. Thank you. And enjoy your day ☕️

A beautiful game with great potential... BUT. Let’s get this out of the way: Genshin Impact is a beautifully crafted game with obvious love and passion behind it. The stories of the characters are compelling, the soundtrack is phenomal and ethereal, and the combat is satisying and challenging at the same time. I have played this game since launch and followed its progress since beta. I will not deny that this game is great. HOWEVER. I cannot help but worry about the direction this game is going. There seems to be more interest in putting more banners out and releasing more new characters and weapons than developing the amazing the story that got experienced gacha players like me amazed in the first place. This current event, the Lantern Rite, was so hyped up and I was finally ready for more interaction with the characters and the scenery of Liyue. Instead, we got missions with NPCs and barely any interaction with the characters of Liyue. Mihoyo, this game and the combat is fun, however if there is no more content for people to enjoy then eventually they’ll leave. We need replayable enjoyable content that isn’t spiral abyss, is FTP friendly, and engages the already existing characters. I really want to see this game succeed more and push the boundaries of gacha, but it will not happen if there is hardly any focus on story and character development in a game which thrived on that at launch.

Great game, insane gacha.. Every part of this game screams quality, from the massive explorable world to the character designs, story, cutscenes, mini-games, and visuals. There’s a little bit of everything for every type of player in this game, and it’ll continue to expand as time goes on. There’s just so much to do, another area to explore, another character to build, it’s limitless. There’s a few really bad parts of the game, like the gacha. This is a huge part of the game, and to say the least, it’s quite predatory. Just to get a single copy of your favorite character, you may have to wait months or even a year for them to run, just for a chance to get them. If you’re not saving for months on end, you might not get them. If you wanted to get a character and didn’t have the currency to get them, you might have to pay a few hundred for it. For one copy! And the game heavily incentivizes getting a character multiple times for boosts, along with their weapon, making the costs for a character maxed out potentially thousands! It’s truly diabolical. Even still, you can extract many, many hours of enjoyment without spending a dime, though it’ll take lots of work to get your favorite characters, and even still you’ll be lagging behind in power compared to people who spend money.

A amazing game♥︎ but... I honestly love this game and the characters design and gameplay is amazing! But I honestly have a few problems, the first problem is that, getting 5 star characters seems a little bit too hard! It’s difficult to get 90 pity in 1 banner and to just loose my 50/50 to another 5 star, it hurts and I’m pretty sure other people who really want their dream character can relate. The second problem is the character designs, in my opinion I think we need more plus-sized and darker skin tone characters and sometimes I feel like the designs are stereotypical! Im really tired of mihoyo just having one different design and then they change it for something that they’re not and I’ve heard a lot of people saying ganyus og design was plus-size and you changed it. Third problem is sometimes when your adventure rank is higher the quests get WAYYY harder then they need to! Kinda the dragonspine quest and a lot of inazuma quests and boss fights. My last problem is storage, for mobile players Genshin can take up more than 13 GB, which is a lot and I’m pretty sure Genshin is killing a lot of mobile players storage, including me. But other than that, I love this game and I cant stop playing! I hope you realize the problems soon mihoyo.

Almost complete perfection. First of all, I just want to say that this game is a true work of art! The characters have great diverse personalities, the graphics are absolutely stunning, the story line and all the other leveling and adventures and or quests are all genius. miHoYo should be very proud of the work they did on this game, because it’s amazing. However, there are two things that I don’t like. First, the download. It takes A WHILE. If u are reading these, and are thinking “my games taking a while....” it’s not just you. The game is SO content packed that it takes so long to download. Then, there’s the in game download. This may occur only in certain devices, but the second download takes a while too. IMPORTANT- if the second download keeps stopping and throwing you out, it may give you a notice that you do not have enough device storage space. That happened to me when i tried getting this on my chrome book. The final thing that bugs me a bit is the difficulty of certain things. Like, it’s SOOOOO hard to get a five star. And some quests are a bit more challenging and annoying then others.. so watch out. Anyways, even with the negativities, this addictive game is worth every minute! Again, AMAZING game! Absolute genius! Ty for reading! Have fun!

A great game at start but…. I’ve been playing since the start of 2022, I absolutely love the characters her, the world of teyvat and the lore in this game but sometimes it really bothered me how they weren’t even trying to make a dark skin toned character for the released region of Sumeru. Sumeru is basked on Middle eastern, Soutth Asian and Northern African cultures. Though they “tried” to make some dark skin tones such as Kaeya, Xinyan, Cyno, Candace, etc. but I never feel like they are actually dark skin, I have a friend who’s skin is similar to that but was usually White other than getting herself tanned slightly. I come from an SE Asian and the inaccuracy in the skin tones are really not it for me. The game itself gets very boring as time to time. All I do now is do my daily commissions and log off. But I rarely do that now since I’ve lost interest. There’s no point in playing unless you have characters that does 10x the damages. Whenever I was gonna work on my account, I was usually not on the day to farm for the talents, etc. The domains thing with the day limit really annoys me, but maybe it’s just me. Don’t get me wrong, I love the game but I don’t usually plays it anymore due to the lack of excitement, I love the characters and the lore like I have said. It’s pretty exciting to play when you are an early player so I do recommend you playing! 3/5 stars for me due to the racism and the lack of excitement.

Great game just not so friendly any more for mobile storage anymore. I started playing this game when I finally got a device that could handle it back in 2021, I was so excited to finally start playing with my friends and did play up to AR 45 but then I had to drop when I was getting more busy and it had grown too large for that device which I needed to use for daily stuff so I deleted in 2022, jump skip to somewhere in 2023 I redownloaded but after so long I didn’t have that much interest but after some time I got more back into the game and by march of this year the new characters and the archon quests I had left I came back for and to explore new lands though I missed a lot I got back into it and I’ve been saving for the Nave or “Father” especially sense I lost 50/50 last time I’m at I’d say soft pity but now the update is here unfortunately there simply is no storage left and sense it’s app update I’m not sure how much I'm missing out on but my device is mostly right now taken up by genshin and I can’t play it now. So I’d be warned you’ll want a device that’s 94 or 128 GB for this game. Yes people do have complaints about not enough content in the game or not much free stuff which is all up for debate but sense I can’t change the game to be less I’d just say to be aware if your 32 GB or 64 GB

One of the Best Mobile Games of the Year! 💖. I've searched the app store for months for an open-world game with good graphics, good characters, and fun battle mechanics, and this game comes along out of nowhere and immediately checks all of those boxes! This game is gorgeous, there's so much to do, and I ended up falling in love with each and every unique character. I have to admit, though, the chance to unlock a 5-star character is a little too low for my taste, but what makes up for it is the fact that you can play through the game without paying a cent for new characters and still have a wonderful, fun-filled experience. I also wanna note that this is a very large game that needs a lot of space and battery to run at its full potential. But I think that a few gigabytes of space is definitely worth it for this amazing title. Even if there's no enemies to defeat, I still find myself immersed, just exploring and taking in the beautiful scenery. There's even extra lore in the form of books to collect and read! The amount of content given to you at the start is incredible, especially for a free-to-play game, and new stories and characters are added regularly! In times like these, this is the perfect game to unwind with, and I can't wait to see what's in store for this game in the future!

My favorite game!. This is by far the best game I have on my device. And I play it all the time! The creators certainly were not lazy when it comes to building the world and the characters, and making them believable. One of my favorite things about this game is just how much stuff you have to do! Unlike other games where you only have one main quest to do this one gives you several! So if you don’t have a Hugh enough level or adventure rank to do a certain quest there are several different things you can do, to pass the time. Also all of the characters, feel believable, and none of the plot feels forced. Also some of the food seems like it would be so delicious that I want to try it in real life! Also all the different monsters, mini bosses, and bosses are so creative that it actually feels like something that would be real in a different world. Also I really like how the game doesn’t necessarily tell you everything so you have to figure out some stuff. Honestly I tried to think of anything bad about this game but I couldn’t find anything that wasn’t extremely minor. In conclusion I swear this game is the new “Legend Of Zelda” of our time and will be just as famous! And would recommend getting this if you like fantasy story games!

Genshin where is the representation???. I’ve been playing genshin impact for about 3 years now and I have enjoyed the game very much but it confuses me when genshin takes inspiration from various cultures but they refuse to add in the correct skin colors for these character’s. In the newest region Natlan that has yet to release, we have gotten a trailer for it shows many character's with pale skin and it begs the question why?Because we have been told and now have seen in the trailer that the character’s and region are based on South America/Latin America and parts of Africa which many of the people that live in these areas have darker skin tones. (If your going to base something off of another culture AT LEAST DO IT RIGHT!) We are missing on factor in representation for these areas and that is the skin tone. In fact some of the character's are even based off !!deity’s!! of these area yet they are not represented with the correct skin tones. After the release of the new Natlan trailer many have spoken abt this issue which not only includes fans but VOICE ACTORS, AND DEVELOPERS of other hoyoverse games. It is very obvious that genshin does not care because not only have they don’t this to Natlan but also past character's in the region Sumeru. I believe that if enough people bring this issue up to genshins developers then they will have to start caring. Genshin has enough time to change this and make it right and represent these character correctly and I hope that they do.

Great game with some flaws. I know this game is fairly new so I hope they fix this soon. This game is an amazingly fun open world experience and at the beginning and there is so much to do. But when you get to a certain point you sort of run out of things to do and you find yourself in a tedious repetition of just doing your daily commissions etc. at the ar 40 and up stage. It gets too easy in open world to the point where you are two shotting the bosses. The game encourages you to get stronger when there is no point to get stronger because you can already beat the games content. Another thing is the gap between f2p and p2w. Neither are better or worse but there is a substantial difference between the two. It costs about $300! To get 1 5 star! That’s outrageous and totally not worth it. We do need whales in the community to support the company but it’s like $20 for like 7 summons. Thankfully the game has added a lot of new content in the newest patch and those that will follow so there will be content. The biggest problem is the power creeps. Every new character is substantially stronger than the other so we are basically just wasting our money because the next character will be so much better than the last. Overall this game is very enjoyable but I want mihoyo to address these problems

Fantastic game. Would recommend to anyone.. I love everything from, the story, the enemies, the music, and the abilities. It’s all amazing. I’ve been playing Genshin for a while now and have been amazed at the story and how the characters look. The scenery is also beautiful. There is so much content for new players and vets. This game has kept me entertained during the boring days and always connects me with kind people. I finally am going to get Kazuha after a long year and am so happy. The pity system is fair and there are many opportunities to get primos. The game is so well made with its giant world to explore and amazing character designs. The abilities are very versatile and would fit anyone wants. I overall recommend this game to anyone interested. I doubt you would regret it! -I notice that many new players go for characters that are said to be super strong but you should go for a character that you find fun and enjoy playing. Getting a meta character is good for damage but can get boring if it isn’t your play style. Go for whatever character you want but always do the trials first to see if you really want them. -One think I would like Hoyoverse to add is a artifact load out that can save what artifacts you use for a character and can easily be equipped.

4 years in and not enough change. I’ve been playing Genshin pretty close to launch and have been consistently playing since. As time goes on I have gotten considerably more dissatisfied. To start the lack of skin tone diversity in the game throughout the past 5 main regions going on 6 is disappointing. Why can a universe that has animal-human hybrids not also have playable characters that are darker than the shade of a paper bag. The new region Natlan trailer came out, and it includes heavy inspiration and references from Latin America, indigenous and African cultures yet there is one character that can be considered brown skin. Another issue is the extremely slow quality of life changes especially compared to other hoyoverse games. Why after 3 years do players still not have artifact load outs? Another issue is the lack of challenging yet fun and innovative end game content. We have the spiral abyss and the new theater update which has many issues. At this point as a AR 60 player who has 100% explored each area, completed ALL quests and hangouts, there is not much to do. You log in, do your daily’s, spend resin in a domain, complete a slightly changed version of the same events we’ve been playing since version 1.0 and log out. Genshin is a beautiful game whose story is very interesting but these issues definitely leave a bad taste in many players mouths.

Absolutely amazing service! (game was hacked). My game was hacked about a year ago and I was desperate in getting it back, I checked the forums and many others had the same issue, I was crushed. It seemed like there was no way of me getting my game back at all. The mistake was that I had not linked my game ID to any email… so I had no way of getting it back from the hacker. HOWEVER, I got in contact with the devs by email and explained my serious situation. I proved to them who I was and that my game was with a character named “this” and my game ID was “that”, I even sent them screenshots that I had taken that had my game ID in the bottom corner! Within a few days time, I was able to get back in AND link an email! I got my game back and I am so grateful! That was in late 2021. The devs are AMAZING! Gameplay-wise, I am IN LOVE with the characters and the story! This is by far the best game I have ever played! And I am a serious gamer, have been for years! My one wish is that I could enjoy the game on my Switch, but the mobile version is amazing, too! If you are wondering if you should get this game, STOP WONDERING and just download it! You will not regret it! And be sure to free up your schedule, you’ll be obsessed with this game in no time at all! ✨

Definitely a must-play. Absolutely beautiful! The scenery of the open world is breathtaking. When accompanied with brilliantly written soundtracks, the scenery is basically given life! Majestic mountains and waterfalls, lively villages are all results of careful pairing between the soundtracks and design. Even if you aren’t too keen on fighting enemies, just running along in the open world and exploring is a pleasure. The exploration portion of the game is well thought out too. There are many puzzles to solves, getting surprised with the weird locations at which they place treasure chests, and world quests with great backstories. The backstories are also well written, many providing players with reasons to look back and experience it again. I really have to give the designers of the characters a hands down, the designs are top notch. The voice actors are chosen well and the background of the characters really breathes life into them. There are many reasons to love (or hate in some cases 😂) each character. The fighting mechanisms should be relatively easy for players to get used to. I enjoyed fighting certain enemies and how certain characters really enhance or diversify my play style, although some enemies are downright scary or annoying (I’m looking at you dendro slime!). Overall, the game is truly fascinating and should be given a try!

Colorism Problem. I have played this game since release, been through every controversy, and every excuse that Hoyoverse has been through. This one is by far the worst. As a white person I speak on behalf of the people being misrepresented and having there culture be molded into something it’s not. This is wrong. We gave Hoyoverse the excuse when Sumeru was full of white skin tones, saying “wait for Natlan”. Natlan’s here now, and it’s disgusting and disrespectful. You cannot use real world cultures and have inspiration from groups of people and not represent them correctly. This is a breaking point for a lot of people including me. We’ve let this problem go on for too long and Hoyoverse finally needs to suffer the consequences. Fix your characters. Represent the cultures your using in the correct way. And let this be a lesson for you, Hoyoverse, to finally listen to feedback. EVERYONE is asking you too, you are doing no one a favor by white washing these real cultures and white washing these characters that are supposed to be a skin color they aren’t. If you were going to create a videogame using cultures, educate yourself and do it correctly. You’ve made problems by not representing these people correctly, and you’ve decided to ignore it every single time we’ve called you out on it. You still have time to fix this, but if you don’t, I can promise you will lose an abundant amount of your fan base, and you wouldn’t like that would you? You guys have always loved money.

By far the best gacha game I have ever seen, let alone played.. A huge open world with a truly massive amount to find, deceptively-simple-yet-engrossing mechanics and gameplay, unexpectedly-high production values, beautiful graphics; the list of reasons to like this game goes on and on. Even the gacha system manages to avoid being obtrusive or even annoying, providing the player with enough in-game currency to routinely make use of gacha draws without requiring any financial investment, and unlike most gacha games the characters and items acquired through the storyline and side-quests are enough on their own not just to enjoy the game, but to thrive; the one thing that I have not seen the game provide automatically that can be considered necessary (a heavy-weapons user to break up rocks and mining deposits) can be swiftly acquired early and for free from a special, beginners-only gacha draw. Genshin Impact isn’t just good for a free-to-play game, or good for a gacha game, or good for a phone game (though it is all of these things); Genshin Impact is good by any standard. My only regret is that I couldn’t find a way to link my account on the PS4 to the one my phone uses (the two versions of which are almost indistinguishable; no cut-rate port from more powerful machines here!).

One of the best Gacha/RPG games!! :D. To be completely honest, I absolutely love this game in so many different ways! I feel like Genshin Impact has such an amazing story line and plot that fits along with every aspect. I love the top-notch graphics and scenery which creates such beautiful visuals that really brings the entire game to a thriving life— Not only does the outstanding graphics impress me, but the background sound effects and voice lines are also extremely beautiful! The characters are also highly detailed with different features that distinguishes them each, I even adore that each character has their own story and background to which shaped them to who they are present. Totally recommend this game if you want to play an RPG game with engaging fighting scenes and stunning scenery. Not only just the sceneries I suggest, but also the story lines and the lore all behind it, almost every quest and plot connects to the unraveling mysteries that lie within Teyvat! That is what really makes Genshin Impact such an engaging game that keeps you occupied in your journey through a vast— and stunning world that will take you everywhere. Barely any mistakes or imperfections I see within the game. If you seem interested, please give it a shot and experience the artistic and magnificent world of Teyvat!

Amazing, but always room for improvement. This game is worth playing. Excellent adventure. I’ve even put money into this game which is unusual for me. Some things I want to recommend: 1. I like how you have the option to offload used data to free up space. If you already finished a bunch of missions with audio and video cut scenes, this is awesome. Instead of offloading, wouldn’t it be better to allow players to download things AS they play instead? I mean, some missions you can’t play to until later anyways. Also, sometimes player audio is annoying. I’m tired of listening to Bennet… 2. Also, great job on allowing the players to set the video settings for high or low based on their preferences and the way it helps prevent in-game lag. I’m playing on an older iPhone, and this helps!!! 3. An adjustable set of controls would help prevent me from pressing the wrong keys all the time too! 4. Pleeeeeease, work on your dialogue. I haven’t seen late-game dialogues, but early on it is terrible. You can literally skip 40+ pages of dialogue and complete the quests without having missed anything important. Not a joke. I enjoy the missions and backstory, but some of it is monotonous and pointless. 5. Sometimes farming domains for artifacts or talent materials, etc. is REALLY boring but basically required. I don’t enjoy it. I loathe it.

Love it. I first downloaded this game bc my friends were really into it. When I first figured it out the game I thought it was hopeless. I felt that I would never get my dream characters bc it was to hard. But then I found out the best ways to get primos, and the concept of not wishing every single time I get 160 primos. Then I started finding what characters I liked and I was gonna pull for. And ofc it’s a beautiful game and then graphics are amazing. Even playing on my phone they are still amazing. Not just the characters, the quests and exploration are also super fun. I’ve only been playing the game for 3 months so I’m still kinda early on. The one thing about this game that could be a problem is the amount of storage it takes up. I can’t even download it on my iPad bc it takes up 20+ gigabytes. But if u have a device where you have enough to download it, it’s totally worth it. And if u don’t like it u can just delete it and u have all ur storage back. I would also like to add that it at least for me is way less addictive then other popular video games. Now it is still addictive. But I find that I don’t feel I have to play for hours everyday. To conclude this review, I love this game a would definitely recommend it!!

This is my new favorite game. I’ve been playing this game for about two years now and I must say this game is amazing! The scenery is gorgeous and the characters are even more fun! In this time I’ve been playing I’ve enjoyed the stories and gameplay so much I’ve created three accounts all above adventure rank 50! Anytime I’ve felt burnt out of the game I still make sure to do my commissions and spend my resin. If your looking into playing this game I would highly recommend it if you have the storage, because this game takes up quite a bit. But that is the only downside the game itself has. One thing that bothers me about this game is some of the players that don’t respect the developers choices and decisions. I see so many videos of people complaining about certain features that they wanted but didn’t get which I honestly find childish since this is just a game. The game has many more pluses then negatives, I personally haven’t spent a dime on this game and have gotten quite far into the game and have enjoyed it. But I’m also not shaming you for spending some money. Especially if you want a certain character! It’s unfortunate the game only does 5 star ratings because if I could I would give it even higher.

Nice graphics, lots of fun, but a grind. I am redoing my review because it’s been months since I started, a recommendation in itself. The graphics are stunning, the fighting is lots of fun, but progress is slow. It takes time to grow and level. The world rank which increases as you progress is a great idea as it keeps it the fights challenging. The teapot house is incredible. I wish you could fit a little more in it but it’s really fun to experiment with and so nice to have parts of the game that can provide a little break from combat.. It’s also really nice to have parts of it that are useful like crafting and forging. I hope you will keep adding to the utility of it.I think it would be neat if you had some training features. Overall I probably wouldn’t change much about the game except I would make the drops a bit richer and I would improve the teapot editor. It can be very frustrating especially when you are dealing with floating elements. Also a lock feature would be helpful. I haven’t done much in the way of events yet, but hoping to do more. Btw, the loads allowed aren’t nearly enough in many cases in your realm. On autumnhold peak, you have multiple sections. I get one laid out and I can’t use the others. Things like fences should take up less.

It’s good. The game starts pretty easy but gets incredibly harder as it updates, i started without knowing anything about it and didn’t know how to make characters stronger besides leveling them up and leveling the weapons up. I would’ve liked a warning about how annoying it is to make characters stronger but it was my fault for not doing research. For an anime game that profits off of visuals when it comes to scenery and characters the scenery is done really well but the characters lack a bit of diversity and seem to follow only 5 different formats wich is small girl, medium girl, medium guy, tall girl, tall guy. And although I love it I wish it was at least even. It seem a lot of people are mad because of how non diverse it is when it comes to poc. I think they should remember that this is just a game. And although it’s based on real places it doesn’t owe anything to anyone. It’s supposed to be a different world so obviously it’s mechanics are different. We will probably get more poc but i think people are taking things too serious for a game. And if they just carelessly make poc it would make even more people mad. You guys should remember it is a game that’s meant to be fun and getting all serious about representation might make the represent us bad instead of doing it carefully

Very good but not that F2P friendly. I love the game! Genshin is one of those games that off of the top of my head I can say confidently that it’s one of my favorites. I started about 3 months after the game launched and def helped me pass the time. The game’s story and characters are very well written. The problem lies more in storage and in how much the game can offer to those who don’t spend a dime on gacha. Storage for the game is close, if not, almost impossible to achieve for the majority of players. Most have pointed out that they’ve had to delete picture/videos or other applications just to download. As for the game not being that F2P friendly, I do spend money on the game so this isn’t really coming out from my point of view, but I will repeat what others have said.. with exploration, commissions, quests, etc, the game usually only gives enough to guarantee 2-3 of the highest rarity characters. Yes while players could save up, there are others who once they skip the character, would have to wait a long while for a rerun (For example: the character Ms Eula). Also considering the amount of players who don’t have that much time to play the game to begin with, possibly because of school, jobs, or family/friend quality time, they can’t spend much time on the game grinding.
