A Patch With Two New Limited Characters but Only Around 60 Pulls for F2P? Yeah… Something Feels Off Here.

A Patch With Two New Limited Characters but Only Around 60 Pulls for F2P? Yeah… Something Feels Off Here.

Has this ever even happened before? Honestly, this just reinforces my belief that Lohen was probably supposed to be a standard banner character.

Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful that they’ve at least kept the amount of free primos relatively stable lately, maybe even slightly better than before. But still… this whole situation really does feel kinda greedy on their part.

Edit: I've deleted the game and given away my account so none of this 'discussion' matter anymore. Just leave the post here for anyone who want to speak for themselves btw.

The way they treat F2P players, and the way so many people keep defending it, honestly opened my eyes and kinda snapped me out of the sunk cost fallacy. Maybe they were right. I am just the "product" in a free game. And honestly, I don’t think I should keep investing my precious time into something I’m no longer enjoying, it's just not worth it. Which is honestly a bit sad, because even as an F2P player, I used to contributed a lot to the community in my own way. I wrote content, made fanart, edited the wiki and interactive map, and even hosted a Genshin Facebook group in my language. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Still, I genuinely hope everyone will keeps having fun with the things they truly love.

Honestly, I’m not asking for anything crazy or over-the-top - just swap the static character art with a subtle looping animation, like a simple idle GIF where they move a bit. Something similar to the gacha animations in Cookie Run Kingdom would already be more than enough.

And before anyone jumps in - no, I don’t think Live2D animations would take up that much storage or make the game lag like crazy. It’s also not like the devs would have to build everything from scratch. Most characters already have Live2D assets from PVs, web events, and stuff like that, so integrating them shouldn’t be some impossible task.

I mean, they already upgraded character animations in the party screen before, so improving the gacha animations shouldn’t be that big of a deal either. Not only would it make the pulling experience way more satisfying, but let’s be real - it’d also make people itch to pull even more lmao.

So at this point we already know there won’t be a 6.8 version, and based on REDACTED, 6.7 is supposed to be the final area of Nod-Krai. If that’s the case, do you guys think that map will be designed in a more chill, lighthearted vibe and maybe include a summer-style event - like what they did with Natlan’s final area last year? 🥲

From the only REDACTED info we have about the 6.7 map so far, it kinda feels off-tone and not very “summer event” material. I’m just worried Hoyo might straight-up skip the summer event this year… which would honestly suck, since it’s been kind of a yearly tradition at this point 🥹

Also, I originally thought the Nod-Krai arc would fill in all the missing regions across the other nations, but instead we’re getting barely any maps - and the one Mondstadt map we do get doesn’t even focus much on Mondstadt itself… Like, where did the “exploration” part of this “open-world exploration game” go?? /s
