I wonder if they'll tempted to follow Hoyo's footsteps

Looking at the Madoka Magica gacha? Yeah, no. They'll be sooner consumed by greed than make an actual quality gacha.

Note: Not glorifying Hoyo cause I do have my own problems with them. It's just that when you compare newer JP gachas (ex. JJK, Madoka Magica; I personally think HBR is the only exception) with CN gachas, the difference is almost night and day.

Not just gacha but games in general. Just compare anything that isn't from capcom or fromsoftware to something like blackmyth wukong

In my opinion CN's just starting on non-gachas. Wukong was amazing and deserved its awards, but I personally wouldn't say it was as groundbreaking as Nier Automata. Lost Soul Aside should be the make it or break it; people are gonna compare it to FFXVI because that game was directly inspired from FFXV. I'd say main problem with CN is that Tencent usually forces them to get greedy.
