The Amico is coming???

The specifically bought everything but the amico

I'm positive on WuWa overall, The explorations/puzzles are on-par with the best parts of Genshin, traversal is also better The combat feels more action-y, but I'm not convinced now that it's any deeper than Genshin's Enemy variety is better, bosses are much better, dungeons are better 3-character teams are a negative, and the pokemon are a mixed bag Even as someone who likes the over-designed style they're going for, they don't come across the best, might just be a reality of the engine/graphics Story is probably on-par with early Genshin, but something about the cutscenes makes it feel slower, needs a 1.5x speed unirronically Music is worse, VA work is scuffed in parts The lack (or holding back) of a bunch of stuff and QoL systems that are in Genshin feels really bad, feels like a smaller initial cast than Genshihn, which means the story has a lot of lame filler NPCs and less to be excited about

It also just... is Genshin

in a weird way that has made me realize that whatever shadow company builds the engine for these games is the actual power player

Mihoyo and KuroGames have a much easier job than I initially thought

I don't get the feeling of cutscenes being slow that you do spooky, and idk what the english VA is like lol. i just default to JP voice acting even though it doesnt match the subtitles because i am just so used to english VA for non-english native stuff being really flat

what do you think about party size?

that's probably what has me most conflicted

3 is worse but tbh 4 in genshin still made me swap units for puzzled in exploration way too often already so

its not that different

and i didnt really ever use all 4 characters in a single combat for genshin, usually i just had 2-3 characters that synergized and the 4th just didnt do anything

swapping teams in genshin was slow, so I almost never did it, it's faster here at least, but I mostly just want to be able to use more characters when wandering around without having to micro who is out on which team if they want to balance around 3-person team combat, I'm 100% on board, but I essentially want a 1 button team swap when ooc

OH but spooky i did think about one thing, about the pokemon/echo stuff in wuwa. I think i might like it more than artifacts in genshin. if only because the monsters have set stats and bonuses, and aren't RNG stats. i hated farming artifacts in genshin because it was almost impossible to get what you really wanted

(also i only have 6 characters so i can just... use all 6 between 2 teams lmao)

100%, they're better than artifacts

but uh

what do you mean by set stats?

am I misunderstanding tuning?

huh?

oh i havent tuned yet, but i was assuming it wasnt rng

if it is then my opinion drops

ok so, maybe I'm misremembering

is tuning for spirits or weapons

the spirits

ok then yeah

weapons are just like genshin

yeah yeah

I just wanted to make sure

so, I think tuning is random, but I THINK you can re-tune

which i dont like in any gacha because they bloat the pull pool

if so, 1000% better than genshin

gonna have to look into that

I pulled another fucking amber

I swear her pull rate is like 3x everyone else

lol

at least she's better than amber, regi

I've pulled 9 ambers, and 1 of each the other two fire incest sibblings

Ye shes good at least

Did u see we get a free 10 pull and 5*

seeing people's teir lists are funny, it's like early Genshin again

where nobody has any idea

free 5*?

Apparently

huh

i got 10 pulls last night in a mail message

it did say 1/2

cool

huh

Discord didn't embed the 2nd image

I think the dates are off but prob tomorrow we get the 5*

Bc i had a 10 pull this morning

Unless theyre giving another

^

yeah the 10 pulls were last night

I had a different one yesterday

So who knows

they probably are speaking in east asian time

because they are a day ahead

of NA

in most cases

timezones and all that

How do you get more pets

My team is ass because i only have the starter

And i never got my prerelease ones

when you beat a monster they might leave their little silhouette behind and you just go up to that and catch it

its not a super rare chance or anything

i've gotten a lot already

could just be you didnt pay enough attention and just didnt spot the echo/silhouette after a fight

I actually caught that uh, crownless boss

the first one you fight in tutorial

i went and fought it and got it first try

i will say spooky, it might be because i'm not using English VA, but i am having a hard time grasping the story because the written part of the translation has issues

like 5 times a dialogue box ended on a half finished sentence
