    My experience with Genshin Impact: -Tried it (Only the starter region, Mondstadt), thought it was healthily dynamic, but ultimately very childish -Left it for about 2 years -Then my gf has shown me what goes beyond and I had to accept the game has merits

    The storytelling beyond Mondstadt gets a more serious turn, presents interesting and divisive dilemmas and unexpected plot twists - so much so that I wouldn’t recommend it to children, actually. The battle mechanics also change and deepen as you unlock new characters and visit new regions.

    Still, gacha mechanics heavily ruin the game for me. I’m here for the story, not the endless casino. Wish I would get my own private server up and running at some point in the future to remove these mechanics and just play to my heart’s content.










  • Absolutely. I think we should still encourage good behaviors, while at the same time remembering that we merely provide a different perspective that takes time to bake in.

    We cannot expect someone who is broken or taught wrong to flip a switch and become good out of sheer desire to be so.

    Taught behaviors take a long time to change, this is just how neurons operate. With enough time and positive influence (including positive example), a person can retrain themselves to do better. Besides, to do so, they should first know for themselves what is right and what is wrong, and your perspectives might differ.
