Game falls off hard when you hit endgame.
To start off, Genshin is alright. Gameplay when you're still exploring around Liyue and Inazuma while deep as a puddle, still feels rather fun. The game doesn't stop throwing neuron activating content at you, there is still primogem income through chests, fun-ish quests, and life is good.
When you're done with all of that though? Do yourself a favour and drop the game for a year or two for Mihoyo to add more content. Endgame gameplay loop presents you with zero interesting activities to do. You can: 1) do abyss, 2) grind mats. That means you will be spending your time gated currency on topping out 3-4 characters and moderately upgrading another 4 as your end goal, IF you feel like doing abyss. If you don't want abyss? Well, you've finished the game now, only soulless grind for leaked characters remains.
This should have been released as a GAAS RPG with a different combat system imo, not as a gacha. Would've been better for it.
A lot off assets (particularly environment and growth mats) and themes also look directly ripped from zelda, if that's your thing.
