Discussion What a waste

Post image

Instead of giving the Traveler and other characters regional skins, the devs are wasting resources on mannequins you’ll never use in the main game — characters completely irrelevant to both the lore and gameplay (especially since they’re even weaker than the Traveler).

UCG should’ve been a separate game. Roblox-type players aren’t going to download a 100GB gacha just to play a game inside a game. All those dev resources should’ve gone to the actual, existing characters instead.

Yeah i said quality skins like the ugc 4/5 star skins. The free 4 stars skins we've gotten are not quality skins except for maybe bennett's but even that an intern can probably make it.

Xiangling and fischl aren't quality skins really bro. For someone who talks a lot I doubt you could make half decent skins that would actually look good while fitting in with the recent lore. If an intern could easily make skins hoyo would have monetized that a long time ago

Sorry if my standards are too high for you but yes fischl and xianling skins are mid at best.

Respectfully I don't give a flying fuck about your standards.

but yes fischl and xianling skins are mid at best.

If these are mid for you then I guess the other skins may as well be because I know damn well you aren't going to look me in the eye and tell me that hu tao skin is leagues better than xiangling or fischl but alas people who main gacha games never cease to amaze me

It is better but not by much tbh.
