Honestly, the game isn't even that bad. The balancing team is just non-existent. And personally, I don't like the monetization model. Please don't spend money on $20 (or more) skins. You're actually throwing money at nothing.

Why is this shit so addicting?

nice little game, but not as good as people make it out to be

The best gacha game I've ever played.

Pros (in progress):
- god-tier music
- SUPER GENEROUS rewards (we get a free 10 pull every patch while genshin gets one 10 pull per anniversary lmao)
- great turn-based combat
- nice explorable areas (I like the fact that I don't need to spend thousands of hours in one area. I can just collect the ten or so treasures in each one and get on with my life)
- auto-combat (for those people against auto-combat, good luck grinding calixes on manual)

>pulled for kazuha, got jean
>realized how much time I wasted grinding for pointless characters in this game made for losers
>went to the gym, touched grass
>happy now 👍🏻
(never playing this shit again)

List of cons (in progress):
- Paimon
- too much text
- un-skippable text
- no end-game
- Spyral Abyss is either a joke or has damage sponge enemies which take 10 days to kill
- no interesting mechanics (Fontaine water sections look interesting, but not enough to pull me back into the game)
- yes, game is super easy, but it still feels bad to pull a Diluc in 4.0 when literally almost every other damage dealer does so much more damage
- abhorrent daily quests, I wanted to blow my brains out every day I did them (fix: literally just do what Honkai:Star Rail is doing with their daily quests)
- stingy ass rewards (one or two 10 pulls for an anniversary? really?)
