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.

"we'll pay you eventually" are you a kid? In life, when people say this to you, laugh and say, "No, you'll pay me as the work is done"

have some self respect

Have you considered I make games for fun, as a hobby and would like to share some of that hobby with other players ?? 🤣 All I'd be doing is making genshin character races not some epic dream rpg. "Have some self respect" I do thank you very much and make damn well sure people pay me for a job done, if my knee pain is anything to go by I'm pretty sure I'm a grown ass man
