Support NeoGAF

[Nankatsu]

I'm getting back to Genshin bit by bit and something seems off. Did they by any chance tweak with characters skin tone? I'm finding them pretty washed out and I didn't switch my TV settings at all.

Or maybe I got super comfy with my PC screen, which isn't even HDR, and my eyes are tricking me.

They might have changed shading a few patches ago.

ATTENTION:
By the way, it's getting close to 5.0, so I'm probably going to have the mods pull the thread out of Community for a few weeks like we did for Fontaine. I feel like GAF has gotten a little more accepting of gacha games over the past year, so we might get some new faces. The ZZZ thread gets a decent amount of replies.

Start brainstorming some thread title updates for Natlan.

Genshin Impact |OT| 5.0 - Everything Changed when the Fire Nation Arrived

-or-

- Waifus coming to XBox too


Sitting with over 100 draws while waiting for the next archon. I need to decide on a new character to join Zhongli in C6-ville. Out of my friendship-leveling standard party, Jean is getting C3 free with the update (and I'm not going to aim for a standard-banner character), meaning my main DPS (C0 Yoimiya) or off-field DPS (C0 Yae Miko) are the likely options. While I do really like Yae...those turrets make her an aggro magnet in multiplayer dungeons, which is annoying. Conversely, Yoimiya's elemental skill means there's down-time in her rotation; it's fine for solo content (as that's when I can refresh the turrets for Miko, or put up a new shield if I'm running Zhongli), but it's less great in multiplayer.

I'd consider Navia, since she's ridiculously hard-hitting for C0, but having a 2nd geo C6 seems like a mistake. Furina (C0) is a character I don't mind taking in to multiplayer, since she does heal, while not feeling limited to slashing at your opponent's ankles (a la Qiqi).

Other 5-stars I have: Clorinde (C0), Dehya (C0), Diluc (C2), Eula (C1), Ganyu (C0), Kequing (C2), Klee (C0), Mona (C0), Nahida (C0), Nilou (C0), Qiqi (C2), Raiden Shogun (C0), Tartaglia (C1), Tignari (C0), Venti (C0), Wriothsley (C0). Curious to see GAF's recommendations.

If you're trying to go C6, 100 wishes is nowhere near enough. But out of the ones you listed, the biggest "improvements" from low constellations to high is Shogun/Tartaglia(mostly outdated)/Eula (outdated). I don't know about Chlorinde.

If you really want a powerhouse that will let you steamroll, well... anything, it's Arlecchino. Even C2 is overkill. Also Nahida is a great high constellation investment, or whover your favorite DPS is.

Found a spot in storm terror's lair with an infanite fall glitch.

I was able to replicate it. For science

Man this game seriously needs a skip button. Trying to rush through summer event to unlock things and collect the rewards and omg... What a fucking snooze fest.

 

[Pejo]

So CN is out doing CN gacha drama stuff.

Apparently Bilibili, basically the YouTube of China is allowing any content to pass filter as long as you include "Genshin bad" or something like that in the title. Users caught wind of it and started uploading mass amounts of HoYo flavored porn. Porn is supposedly punishable in CN by like 5 years prison? I dunno, I'm reading this 3rd hand. But TL;DR is that the anti-HoYo sentiment is reaching an all time high in preparation for 5.0. I wouldn't go too far into the comments because you'll just see redditors arguing that it's WuWa fans or paid shills doing the negative PR swing. Anyways, what a mess lol.

[Pejo]

I have no fucking clue. I think fans of this type of game are eating incredibly good right now. WuWa has fantastic gameplay and is slowly coming into its own instead of being a Genshin carbon copy, I'm more excited for Genshin than I've been since swimming was revealed for Fontaine, even ZZZ is a lot more fun than I was expecting. RIP my time, but as far as having fun, high quality (free) games, we've never been in a better spot. I liken it to GAF's obsession with console wars despite the sad, sorry state of AAA console gaming.

I guess I kinda get that, but why would Bilibili want to facilitate that with their algorithm? Or were they trying to ban dissident voices and it backfired through a bug or something?

I'd assume for the same reason we get clickbait shit in the US. Hate watching/controversy drives click and revenue.

Another new web event, not the same one as the previous one I linked. This is just a click-through for primogems one:
"Guide to Wondrous Sights"

Guide to Wondrous Sights — The Web Event for Genshin Impact's new character: Mualani is now available.

During the event, follow Mualani to visit the four Natlan scenic spots she recommends to take travel commemorative photos and watch her surfing performance to receive in-game item rewards.

The other link I provided is the one that gives us the free Natlan craftable weapons as long as we hit milestones, so I suggest everybody log in and click that one.

So how are you guys in terms of primogems? I'm not liking my chances for the upcoming anniversary . No guaranteed, I'll have to win 50/50.

 

[Pejo]

So how are you guys in terms of primogems? I'm not liking my chances for the upcoming anniversary . No guaranteed, I'll have to win 50/50.

Well I'm going to try to C6 Mavuika when she releases, but there are a bunch of great Natlan designs between now and then, so who knows how things are gonna go for me. I have just under 100 wishes currently, but I've only done quests and exploration of about 25% of Fontaine

So now my dilemma is do I just rely on the ugly dinosaur gremlins or pick up Mualani for Natlan mechanics. I do like her design quite a bit, and it's hard to stare down new version/anniversary hype and not roll on anything, so I'll probably end up snagging a copy.

Probably not gonna be any way around swiping when Archon time comes.

 

[jonnyXx]

So how are you guys in terms of primogems? I'm not liking my chances for the upcoming anniversary . No guaranteed, I'll have to win 50/50.

I have 56 wishes currently but not planning to pull in 5.0, I'm waiting for Xilonen and Mavuika so I have some time to save.

[Nankatsu]

Well I'm going to try to C6 Mavuika when she releases.

You're gonna have to open your bank account for that, no?

I have about 70 wishes so far, but quite a bit of content to farm too. Priority is the pixel guy. If things go right then Mavuika. Also Ororon.

I'm not expecting Capitano to drop, but if drops, sorry Mavuika.

 

[InterMusketeer]

New raffle event, links below. You get an additional try from inviting people through your link, so post 'em here.

I'm sitting on 480 wishes + 83 fates worth of Starglitter. I have 8 pity on the character banner and 60-ish on the weapon banner. Depending on how things go, I could probably C6R1 someone down the line.

Edit: deleted my link since I received the max rewards.

I already C6'd Childe/Eula/Shenhe and most of the standard banner 5*s, so I'm aware of the cost. Luckily I'll have the top up bonus reset and refunds from pretty much any dupe 4* I pull to buy more fates. I just gotta hope the 50/50 is kind.

So I just started that soon expiring battle event. Man I fucking hate that type where you have to set up multiple teams and buffs for each team for every stage of the event. The goddamn setup takes longer than the battle stuff does, and for what? The event disappears and you'll never see those mechanics again. I really dislike battle events in Genshin more and more as time goes on.

I was pretty hype for Capitano until he was revealed without his coat. He's just the normal Diluc-type beanpole character and he's got a mullet, so I'm back to not giving a shit. Pretty much guarantees we aren't ever getting the 3rd male character model (buff adult), so meh. I'm guessing it's gonna end up being Kaeya's dad.

I wasn't fond of the battle event either. Did they let us skip the researcher's generic reason why we're doing this same mechanic for the 1000th time?

3/4 of my team was the same across all 3 teams. Did the Atk +15% and the boost if you had a shield each round. Never made it to 5000 on a round but got my primos and ran.

Can't bring myself to do it on my 2nd account.

Just saw these early character reviews on YouTube:


Kachina sounds a bit disappointing. Seems like she's just a placeholder for the new artifact set. Once Xilonen releases, she will likely lose any reason to exist (except maybe in IT). Still gonna build her though.


From this video I gather that Mualani is strong, but could use different teammates to make her rotations more comfy. Future Natlan characters will likely fix this.

 

[Pejo]

So glad we're getting Kachina for free. She looks fun.

Looks like Genshin won mobile game of the year at Gamescom. Wonder if they'll give us some free pulls.

 

[Pejo]

Man I can't believe I spent the last few hours catching up with quests that were blocking my progress on that last summer event quest. The one in Sumeru talking about the stupid fucking book.

If I knew it was just gonna be running around listening to NPCs spout stupid shit for 20 primogems I wouldn't even have bothered. Ah well, at least it forced me to catch up on some of my quest backlog. All finished with the time limited stuff now at least.

Final Notice:
Going to throw up a poll to let you guys vote on new thread title, but I wanted to collect any more options from you guys before I make the poll. So far we have:

• Aloha Mavuika, in your warm embrace I want to stay
• Everything Changed when the Fire Nation Arrived
• Waifus coming to XBox too
• Land of the Lost (50/50)
• Through the Fire and the Flames

Any more suggestions, please have them in by Sunday, and I'll make the poll.

*edit*

Looks like we hit all the goals and will get the 3 free Natlan weapons.

Finally somebody else on GAF that likes the mode. They're already on their way to ruining it, though. Next iteration has 2 more floors and boss HP is getting almost doubled.

Also, with that quest, I fucking agree. Not only was it kinda shitty in and of itself, it also directly fucks up all of the progress we made in Dain quests up until that point. Like why even have us recover the eye of the first tiller if they were just give it to the abyss twin a few quests later anyways.

Dain quests used to be interesting from a lore perspective and pushed the story forward, that one literally removed progress.

Damn, I was going back through mods since it'd been a while since I looked at what was new out there. There's a Dehya mod that's incredible. Dude completely remodeled her (and gave her almost double poly count) but not in the usual "just give her humongous T&A" or "make her really fat" way that mods usually go. Like this would be an amazing default adult body style for females. Fully modular and you can pick any number of options on how it looks.

Spoiler: NSFW-ish

I'm not even talking the sexy design, just the overall quality is way above the usual.

Capitano render, normal and coatless. I'm so bummed that he has a mullet and a beanpole character model. I like the coat design better than without, but I'm 99% positive he won't be playable in this state anyways. Probably gonna turn into a reborn twink like Bennett, but with a mullet.

He's not nearly as imposing without the cloak.

He's not nearly as imposing without the cloak.

Leakers are saying that there's nothing under his mask in the current models available for him, so either HoYo is keeping it a surprise at a model level or this version will never be playable. Matches up with older leaks saying that he wouldn't be playable in 5.x but Columbina will be.

Also hey Fuz! Glad to see you're still checking in on us, just saw your answer in the poll! Wish I had some way to get your Steam account name so I could add you on there.

I did my vote btw

 

[Nankatsu]

Too many cool characters to pull on Natlan it seems.

Gonna have to use my primogems carefully.

I shouldn't have comeback until 28th. Ok I've been farming, but I lost a free x10 pull because I started playing earlier.

Regarding the changes in the weapons banner, if you lose the first 50/50 now you're bond to get the weapon on the 2nd chance right? Making it 160 fates.

Are they updating the standard banner in any way?

 

[jonnyXx]

Regarding the changes in the weapons banner, if you lose the first 50/50 now you're bond to get the weapon on the 2nd chance right? Making it 160 fates.

Yup. You only need to loose once for the guarantee now, not twice.

No changes to standard banner other than confirmation that they will be adding more standard 5 star characters.

 

[InterMusketeer]

So Xilonen is a blacksmith. I'd like it if she was the actual blacksmith we can go to in Natlan.

There were some rumors Iansan might be included in 5.1 as a 4-star, but I guess those were wrong. Feels a bit lacking to have only one new character in 5.1, but I guess it makes some sense to leave that for 5.2 when they release new areas/tribes. I hope this means she isn't a standard 5-star. Can't imagine them releasing only one character with the reduced value of being a standard.
