Cansorship on, no wonder can't see Anniversary rant on official medsos. Anyone wanna ragepost here?

if we are talking about how Mihoyo handled Anniversary, well tbh I feel like a parent that is disappointed with his child, sooo much potential, now lets see if the content creator walk the walk (taking breaks from Genshin), I am sure everyone knows that only thru the power of mula can u make a change in this day and age, sad I know, but it is what it is.

Benefit of doubt

Won't be surprised if the next banner does normally or well if it's a decent unit, hard to change mindsets.

It's like the constant argument that EA is scum but ppl still spend anyways lmao

Yes I have to agree with your statement on EA, I think its because they do make good games eventhough they get plenty of backlash, lets just hope Mihoyo wont end up like COD Warzone. Good game, but plenty of hackers, Activition dont bother to address the issue until lots of content creator jump ship then poof instantly months of complains get fixed less than a week. So yeah nobody is too big to fail if the community has the same mind set, and I have to disagree on being passive about these matter, because if our frustration is not being heard, the top management thinks that ah nobody is making noise, must be they are ok with it (mules). its like the saying in planet of the ape "Ape together Strong"

All those still need to be taken with a truckload of hopiums.

1. Mihoyo deliberately avoid giving out too much free fates as they don’t want account mules to benefit from it and eat into their potential revenues. Hence why you always see these gems/fates are time gated. If they’re giving free 5* of choice, they will had to AR gate it behind a reasonably high AR.

2. Free constellations of choice sounds OK-ish, but kind of similar to concern1 and they need to specifically code for a universal constellation for all characters, which they hadn’t be ready to implement in their game (they need to at least beta test for it before).

3. The most sensible expectation here, but they hadn’t beta-tested anything related to this, so unlikely for them to miraculously create and award us one before next patch.
*
1. u know when you are trying to set the bar higher in an less explored industry (Gacha) and the community backlashed, so either Mihoyo will fall like COD warzone, or stay strong like apple (isheeps)

2. sounds fair, so does that applies to limited character banner as well? because I am sure plenty of players wont be happy getting Qiqi, Mona, Diluc or other standard banner characters

3. no comments on this

Kinda weird that the guy who whines about Eula hasn't shown up for a looong time. Considering he's such a F2P guy, I wonder if he thinks Mihoyo's anniversary event is underwhelming tongue.gif.

On another note, bad game store reviews don't scare Mihoyo. And you'd be doing yourself a lot more help by not focusing on the hopium HAHAHAHA.

its not weird for me not to participate on topics that I don't find interesting, as for my input regarding the anniversary, I've already shared with the rest earlier.

Wow, I am not sure why there a plenty of Mihoyo white knights in this forum, yes its not like Mihoyo owes the community anything if u wanna put it bluntly since its a f2p game, but as u can see, only the asian community is not complaining and in my opinion that is just plain stupid, let me give u an example, when an mnc company offers better package to their staff, everyone is satisfied, but if ur working for China company with low salary wage, less amenities close to none work life balance and u guys are happy with it, I dont know about u but from my point of view, its like these white knights are shooting themselves on the foot, but lets see, I hope Genshin will cease to exist due to what stupid stunts they did on anniversary, this is the internet age, informations on how ur competitors handle anniversary is a click away, so if u wanna set a trend by being stingy and greedy, then u better prepare to stand ur ground and beliefs that this is the way, cause if not I am sure majority with brains will find out how greedy ur. Like legit, 20 pulls + a wing for anniversary thats far cry for even a 5 star soft pity, so either these white knights are bad at math or blinded by mihoyo, yeah I am tired of rambling, its just like Tectone (Whale) said, its like mihoyo spitting on their player's face, owh happy anniversary everyone, thanks for your mula, heres 20 pulls plus a wing now stfu and give me more money u sheep, and don worry, we aint fixing amber qiqi and other trash tier character, dont like it, too bad deal with it like how we deal our anniversary.

i defend it because i like it.
i like the game, i play it. it does not own me anything.
its F2P and i get great quality gameplay without giving out one cent.

i invest some money into game, that is my choice, nobody forced me.
used that money to get more wishes, made myself happy and no one else.

company mihoyo in good faith, give us F2P option and its a free game.
f2p with where whales do not hurt us, not in rankings nor in anything visible, unlike other gacha which show us who whaled harder.
we as the players enjoy and contribute to the game with some money if we like it.
no guns forced on us.

the psychological way the game coaxes us to play and pay is utter bullshit, don't blame psychology if you're just weak minded.
u don't say girls wear skimpy and u go touch them?

anniversary is a big hooha because u think the game owes u shit?
let me tell you, it does not. they can choose to celebrate it or not and the rewards are up to them.

about your comparison to chinaman companies, that is work and u cannot leave your work.
Genshin is a free game and if u don't like it, u can abandon it.

tectone and the other haters are just talking shit so they can get views. go with the flow and get views. smart people em.
*
You have your opinion, other have theirs, its good that u wanna defend a company that u think that is fair, but sorry to burst your bubble, there are alot of people like tectone, including me who support the game in time and monetary wise feels like we getting spit on, if u like getting spit on constantly more power to you, you do you, but as for majority of the fanbase mostly westerners cause they have a brain at least imo feels isheep kinda vibe, just remember changes require feedbacks, not just sitting idly and taking shits and not complaining about it if theres practices that should not be done (proven that majority is tryna hint at mihoyo their practice is just too much based on reviews), if u prefer to encourage bad and greedy practices then all the best to your future endeavour.

Are you going to expect each and next game or company to keep on outdoing each other in anniversary rewards? After a few years, everyone will just wait for anniversary to start playing because of the reward.

I certainly hope there will be less toxic players/youtubers/influencers in any game.

Work is work. Leisure is leisure.

Also, I myself decided to play this game. Not from the influence from some influencer.

This game is more than just anniversary rewards and gacha pulling. Great visual, great audio. Great gameplay. Great events. And if you're not enjoying it, take your money and go play/pay something else.

QUOTE(Chobits @ Oct 8 2021, 03:01 PM)
ah the sunk cost fallacy have kicked in.
u paying money in free will to the company do not make you their shareholders.
whales and haters can give feedback to the company, but if these feedbacks are actually not benefiting the company or the future of the game.
these feedbacks are going to kill the game just for short term pleasure.

not getting anniversary rewards =  getting spit on?
what world are you guys living in? world of entitlement? or the world where i paid money so i must get my wants?

i have played WoW for a long time and sunk in lots of money, but they screwed up and i stopped.
its as simple as that. we complained to save the game but developers just don't care and as a protest, i stopped.

this applies to genshin as well, if you think they have screwed up their game, just stop playing and don't pay money.
*
I hate to put it bluntly but it seems to me you have issues on how westerners handles things, but that is another topic to discuss later date, its not about being a shareholder or not getting the anniversary rewards, its about treating your customer better, i am not sure whether any of u saw what I wrote few pages earlier, like i state tldr money talks, so i wanna see their stupid stunts either backfire or will genshin sheeps is able to sustain the company, but as for me, i was f2p, loved the game paid welkins and bp, and feeling being not treated right, i am considering on where i spend my mula, so yeah u do you, i do me, but if u wanna bring these arguement further, we are just gonna go round and round cause no matter what we do, we have our on beliefs and money, to me genshin is like having a 7/10 gf with her being in a relationship because she knows she can take advantage of u until u wallet cant take no more, so in my eyes, genshin white knights are those typical daddy kasi or those rkoi whos mula can be considered whales for asian standard, but lets face it (ringgit is a joke compared to USD), they might feel like whales in asia, but they are just dolphins compared to how china whales and westerners whales invest in genshin. And yes if u feel like my statement hurts your feeling, that means i hit my objective on point.

You got any source for that?

Cause all the while, data from Sensory Tower indicates that Westerners (US only) amounts to roughly 20% of the entire Genshin revenue. China (28%) & Japan (23%) combined is roughly 50% while the balance 30% came from other countries. So, as far as I'm aware, Asians have always been & are still the majority.
*
Yes, its called google review, look it up, and check it out, and no I am not counting the whole genshin community due (due to cencorship in china but any tom dick andd harry would know that there would be complains in china too thats for sure, because not all china are sheeps). And just to make things clear on your highlight message, "majority of the fanbase mostly westerners" to put into context, what I am trying to say is westerners including myself (i am not from western) have no issues voicing out our opinion when we feel something is not a good practice, why am i claiming such statements? because i feel that asian mindset is just accept the way things are, not for what it can be, and to be that is a stupid way of thinking, nobody gives 2 crap about how it should it or how it will be or whatever it may be, at the end of the day its about mula, now I can start a whole different discussion on how MAJORITY asians are being educated and taught compared to how westerners does it (keep in mind not only US), it will just add fuel to the fire and its gonna be pointless because of my findings vs your findings scenario will occur thats for sure. I can be satisfied and can come to an agreement that yes mula is the only way to tell the dev or company or whatever that hey buddy ur not on the right track, but what I cant accept is white knights tryna defend their beloved franchise from being tarnish, if u dont like hearing what other people's opinion, i am pretty sure u will gonna have the best time migrating to china, i heard they take freedom of speech very seriously over there.

The game don't owe us anything. But the we don't owe the game anything either. No reason to defend them for their screwups.

Relationship between players and game devs is a two way thing. Both parties should be mutually happy. Players get entertainment, game devs get profits.

If you are getting screwed over, you should be voicing out else they won't change.

If they don't want to improve then yeah players should just leave. It's a lose lose situation for both parties.

Why do you defend and shill for Mihoyo then? Do you owe them something or what?
Please don't be naive and say they make F2P games in good faith. It's all calculated strategy to bring in maximum profits.

You probably think this way because you underestimate the value of your time spent on the game (ingame and off game), hence the mentality of "Free game, no bitching".

The very fact that you are posting in a Genshin community forum is already a win for Mihoyo, even if you are F2P. Free marketing and engagement for them.
I disagree with this but this a different topic altogether. There's a reason why gambling has an age restriction. Psychology is a bitch and not to be underestimated.

Gacha games fully exploit the psychology aspect knowing that regulations has not caught up with what they are doing yet. It's just a matter of time before there will a crackdown on gacha games/lootboxes.
Then why did they cave in and gave us extra rewards then? Because of goodwill of the heart? Please, it's because players don't owe them shit either and they could quit anytime.

Nothing to do with revenue but rather their mentality.

Westerners tend to shill for games more but also more vocal when it comes to complaints.

The problem with their complaints is that it is usually something trivial or not even a problem at all. They also have absurd expectations like asking for free 5*, wanting to able to farm the best artifacts straight away or even ridiculous stuff like resinless dungeon. Actual legitimate complaints get buried thanks to this.

That's why people outside of Genshin (see Kopitiam for example) called the playerbase entitled and crybabies because all the crying was more of "I want more items" rather than "Improve your game".
Even China players that agreed the Anniversary sucked called Global crybabies for expecting stuff like free 5* characters lol.

China players on the other hand, you don't want to screw with them because gacha games are more normalized and they know how to exploit companies that get on their bad side. They know how a game developer should treat their playerbase.
TL;DR
In China, the game devs are afraid of their playerbase.
Outside China, somehow people shill for the game devs even when they get screwed over lol.
*
some of your statement I will personally have to disagree:
Resinless dungeon: No, it will destroy the resin currency thus its a bad idea, what I would recommend is with every patch, increase the resin cap by 40 per patch, should be enough to quell hard grinders thrist in the long run
I want more items : Yes and no because with every patch we get free 4 star character or 4 star weapon, but more capacity towards artifacts is a HUGE YES
Improve your game: Huge YES, stop creating nerfed characters and buff those who needs to be buffed
free 5 star on anniversary: Huge YES, Now hear me out, the datas for the characters is already there, R&D expenses already paid, 1 billion USD profit already made, well time to do some positive publicity stunt and dont tarnish our company's name, what is the best route? hmmm i wonder if i google my competitors how they handle their anniversary. ah a free 5 stars? sounds not too bad, no extra investment towards R&D or paying the interns to enable free 5 star to all accounts options, lets do that, I am sure MOST if not all the genshin fans will appreciate it. But it is not good for a long term in terms of profit wise, I feel like we can gain more profit just to barely give most of the players around 40-50 pulls, and with the current trend, each anniversary should be 1 up from the previous ones, how do we counter this? YES, I totally agree that it is lost of opportunity for profit in many ways during anniversary as the time goes on, keep in mind why anniversaries is created:
1st and foremost to thank (indirectly free marketing for potential customers and also retuning players) by providing incentives to play the game (increasing market share)
2nd gacha games or mobile games are meant to be a short term investments, tell me how many of u are still playing candy crush, flappy birds, clash of clans, facebook poker, and what was it farmville? if ur still playing it, hey more power to you, good that u still enjoying it! but if u understand what am my point is, then I am more happy to hear your point of you (well at least a constructive ones)

I just trying to point out to him that he's plucking points out of his arse.

Keep repeating mula mula mula but conveniently refers to non-mula source i.e. Google Reviews. So I checked something more sensible i.e. Genshin's revenue from Google, tragically it only accounts for 38% of their total $2B. Again not a majority. Keep on repeating majority majority but proven whatever he claims to be majority is just minority. Ultimately, he's just being whiny & entitled over not getting enough. These are the type that "bagi betis nak peha, bagi peha nak cibai", it's never enough. There are people who are contented that their complaints were heard & additional rewards were given, they moved on. But these never enough bunch, can't move on & still whining.   

It's fine to bash the game. I have a lot of complaints about the game as well. But do it constructively & backed with proper logic instead of plucking points & basis out of their arse, to the point of comparing it with work & gf.

If this statement referring to my point, and based from your source (Google's revenue), and u claimed that it ONLY accounts for 38%, mind filling us in what are the remaining 62% coming from better yet, why not segregate it by category so that we can see the whole picture? but lets just play your game for now, if you are stating 38% is a small pool of subjects within 2Billion standpoint, buddy u got your whole life ahead of you laid out with windy roads and steep slopes, I dont know about you, but if 38% of my market is complaining and I am just not addressing the issues, I am setting up myself to say yeah, until i feel that my profit is threathen, then imma do something about it kinda mentality, I am sure u will thrive in your other businesses ventures.

I dont know about you guys, but hear me out, but the way I see it that the CCP imposed a non fan service outfit as default will impact on the future creation on Genshin character in monetary, imagine this, lets say the default skin would be following the CCP regulation, what stops Mihoyo from selling Alt outfit (fan service outfit) to their consumer such as Jean and keqing outfit for a set amount of price? I looked at the reddit thread soo many stating WOW free skin, thanks mihoyo, I prefer the new skin Mihoyo soo generous, but have anyone thought of the repercussions that might happen if Mihoyo chose this route or even worst, making future characters soo bland that it will require Halal sticker on it? With that in mind I am not losing faith in Mihoyo design team on creating a beautiful CCP compliant, its just that will the majority of Genshin player ok with with more cover ups ? and not having character design such as Mona or Rosaria without forking out some extra money moving forward? PS, I think Raiden Shogun will also be affected as well
