    I'm hooked been playing 2 days straight. I can't believe a game that is for mobile as well is so detailed and so much to do. All new game for years now have very little exploring and this one has tons and tons of exploring and fighting, gathering in open world setting. Did some research online and some say it's a Zelda clone for free, I never played Zelda but if it's like this might have to buy it on switch to try it cause this game is that awesome.
    Genshin is surprisingly good. Zelda: BotW is much better.

    Well a free chinese clone verse like a 200$+ legitimate investment (buying the thing you need to play it plus the game), its very good for what it offers. If you can not get trapped in the monetization then you should be okay (I'm not saying don't buy stuff, I'm saying don't get sucked into the 'one-more-roll' psychology gacha game generate).

    Definitely, I was just advising Deadspock to get a Switch  ;)

    Zelda is also a good game but Genshin is absolutely nothing like Zelda.

    It's a fun cute little game and surprisingly decent quality, but I can't give a full-throated endorsement due to the abhorrent monetization.  I know it's par for the course with gachas but this one has probably the worst pull rates I've ever seen (0.6% for a 5*).  I'd wait to spend $, if at all, for the devs to come off of that trash drop rate.  They'll have to do better eventually.  The game can be something pretty decent if they don't scare off anyone who won't spend $200 a month on it before it gets there. 

    Once all the quests and chests are depleted the primogem (cash shop currency) intake will slow to a trickle.  I can't see it being worth playing after finishing the story at this point, devs got a little tooo greedy with what would otherwise be a decent side game.

    Its surprisingly good, you should give it a go if you have some free time.

    The Japanese voice acting makes it even better, so I recommend switching to that in the settings and having the UI in English if you can't read Japanese.

    Found out its a Chinese game a little to late as I'm addicted lt it and can't stop playing now. If I knew ahead of time would have never try it at all. 
    I boycott China and all their products.
    Also in Japan people called this company out as the iPhone version was loaded with some program to get your info and the conpany didn't even refuse it they said was done by mistake ... 1st Tik Tok and now the video games I am sure China is up to no good and wants to conquer us all.

    The percent rolls in this one really are very low. 0.6% for a 5 star. Which to my understanding is your chance to get any 5 star. 

    Even FE Heroes, which from my experience is also pretty stingy, has a 3% focus, and 3% off focus rate on 5 stars on normal banners. 

    The only thing sparing this one is that the core gameplay is quite good, and it doesn't seem to have any kind of competitive or forced grouping element (yet) to create that need to pay to win.

    Had to unistall it from PC and clean up as I start getting notifications on my phone blizzard Authenticator saying this (chinese characters) tried to log in.
    Don't get the game regardless how good it is its going to get you other accounts details from your pc.

    This game has kernel level anti-cheat protection, just a heads up.  It was running even after shutting down the game and uninstalling it, but they've changed that aspect of it now due to backlash.
