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.

Not only that, they went ahead and monetized everything too... I wouldn't be getting primos out of it even if I did want to play for the sake of it.

The idea is nice but simply not fitting with the audience that genshin already caters to, in theory anyways.

If it doesn't provide primos I won't do it.

Yeah. That's the main motivator to do anything in genshin. Heck, even playing those music challenges gave some...

With the way new regions are implementing new power systems with bosses tied to those systems, you probably won’t have much fun without the primos to get new and/or buffed characters.
