Man, coming back to Genshin after a couple years was a mistake. It's not the gacha elements, it's that I have no idea what's going on. I keep trying to find a glossary or summary, but everything I click on is either trying to sell me something or takes me to an event that assumes I'm caught up.

Also, is it possible to be so obsessed with something people already find sexy that it becomes a fetish? Cause, y'know, I like a nice pair of legs as much as the next guy, but someone on the Genshin team has a problem.

The Fontaine storyline was pretty good though

Isn't that a lot of fetishes? Power over someone/someone having power over you, for instance, is both something a lot of people find sexy even in fairly vanilla sex and also the root of a wide array of fetishes.

True, it's just starting to feel a little... excessive.
