Challenge is where the enjoyment comes from, for me.
Don't project your views as objective facts
Adham11532026-01-05 21:00
i get that a lot of players don't enjoy the endgame content, but why do they think everyone is the same? i genuinely would've stopped playing years ago if the game didn't have the challenging content
cuz for me at some point there would be no point in pulling new characters if there is nowhere to actually use them
parthmestry2026-01-05 21:11
True. There is no correct way to enjoy the game. Some find exploration enjoyable, others endgame, others teapot or tcg. Some just enjoy pulling.
hackenclaw2026-01-06 02:23
they should make an infinite abyss where you keep going deeper and deeper, content keep getting harder and harder but with no time limit.
Sort of like those tower Dungeon manga where the MC keep going higher levels and it get harder & harder.
Ok-Judge78442026-01-06 05:30
Zzz battle tower pretty much like if they just give okay/non reward past floor 12 and give extra stuff (extra dialogue) in floor 100 it would be cool.
The_happiness_true2026-01-05 21:01
Yeah, I also enjoy trying the endgame and seeing the progress I made.
People acting like "waifu over meta" or anything similar is the only way to enjoy the game irritate me.
Dat_aint_Falco222026-01-06 02:14
Hell, I STRICTLY play "waifu over meta", and I still look forward to endgame. I used my bro Ifa and Ororon to get through the big mob pack this abyss. Finding out how to use less popular or legit underpowered units and get them some dubs is what keeps me going all these years.
Ok-Judge78442026-01-06 05:35
Waifu over meta has lose meaning imo, in gacha it used to be waifu/husbando players who tries to overcome everything with their favourites esp because theres no guarantee or pity for the meta/shilled character so you have to make do with your roster and favourites, now some people just used it to feel superior (obviously some meta heads also doing the same thing)
WanderingCollapse2026-01-05 21:16
This. Fearless SO is a real challenge for me, and I feel very satisfied every time I actually manage to beat it. The abyss isn't "fun" in that regard.
TheRealMalkior2026-01-05 21:19
What challenge?
Peace of mind is where the enjoyment comes from, for me.
Don't project your views as objective facts
Silent_Silhouettes2026-01-05 21:30
?
u projecting back what they said to them doesnt work when they just stated it like an opinion
PolskiStalker2026-01-05 21:31
You really just decided to ignore entire point of my comment, huh? Let me rephrase this, maybe you'll get it this time.
This isn't the only way to enjoy the game, different people enjoy different things. Look at me as an *example*: I enjoy combat, but I don't pretend everyone should enjoy it.
Is it clear enough for you now, to understand I don't project shit, only show that there are other ways.
demonzq2026-01-05 21:50
OP did project, but not in the comment you’re referring to. The actual issue was the whole “proper ways to enjoy Genshin” framing.
In the comment, they simply said that they enjoy challenge. That’s not “presenting opinions as objective facts”. If anything, it’s the exact opposite.
That’s called expressing a subjective opinion, in case you didn’t know, which is ironically what OP was supposed to do in the first place.
Grimstarzz2026-01-06 00:25
True, some people even go for constellations for characters but then don't bother levelling them or doing any endgame with them.
That's like spending 100.000€ on a Porsche and then driving 50km/h in a 120km/h zone. At least take them for a test drive if you're gonna spend on characters, else they are just fancy and expensive wasted pixels.
jdougles2026-01-06 01:50
I think the title is more a tongue in cheek joke about not getting sweaty over things you don’t enjoy. You’re allowed to like the challenge as much as others don’t like it.
RegretfulChoice2026-01-05 20:56
It doesn't matter if you are meta player, doing all endgame modes, playing mostly for TCG, Miliastra, exploration, story or just want to stare at your favourite character all days. As long as you're having fun, that's the most important thing. After all games are our little medium of escapism from real world problems.
Small-Percentage-9622026-01-05 21:05
True :) I've been enjoying Red Dead Redemption 2 and Hogwarts Legacy from the Epic Games giveaway, love how beautiful both games.
I don't really have time or interest in farming artifacts or building teams. My Mavuika hits almost 100k on ultimate and that's more than enough for me 😅
TonyThaLegend2026-01-05 21:23
Well said!
PandiTati2026-01-05 21:47
60k is from your unedited version is 'almost 100k' from you current version only if your math is that bad
Play your game just as you want, the way you're having fun is just as valid as try-harding. No need to embellish anything
Equivalent_Scar_78792026-01-05 21:26
Agreed but sometimes having critic is absolutely fair. Like I liked exploring in this game a ton but the fact that Nod Krai's release was kinda tiny areawise and we havent gotten any expansion since then is just kinda depressing.
Ivanwillfire2026-01-05 21:31
Well the region has like 6 more patches including 6.3 they probably have plans for expansions there
rW0HgFyxoJhYka2026-01-06 02:16
I swear the people who complained about 2 patches not having new areas to explore continently forgot that the last 2 years had so many back to back regions people complained that there was too much shit and pump the breaks.
Like just accept that the dev team has their priorities and if they didnt put a region out for 2 patches its because thats planned. Its not some sign that there aren't going to be enough exploration areas or some shit. And even if there aren't as many, I rather have good content than rushed crap.
plasma_soda2026-01-06 07:00
The problem is the dry patches are so early into a new region. The no new map for 2 patches is fine mid to late of the area when it's expected, but when the hype is still high & building up because it literally just came out, it's kinda counterproductive to leave players with practically nothing for 4 months. No new World Quests, most events are repetition of the same thing every 2-3 cycles, flagship events are getting much smaller...
Okay_physics_student2026-01-05 22:06
That’s fair although next patch has more nod Krai areas so I’m looking forward to that
Especially bc the open world exploration and world quests are my favorite part of the game so I’ve also been kinda disappointed the last few patches despite the AQs being really good.
Defenestratio2026-01-05 22:17
On the bright side, while it was short, the exploration in Nod-Krai was just so much more fun. Like a mini Sumeru. None of the annoying gimmicky enjoyment-locked-behind-Chasca exploration, just good old "oo a chest! Oo a challenge! Oo a chest!"
Mikankocat2026-01-06 01:15
And I can feel better doing that knowing I won't have to be backtracking for hours to find which chest I missed if I don't use a guide, cause the compass will easily wrap up loose ends
adamercury2026-01-05 22:28
As someone who rarely have the time to explore the maps in the game, I'm kinda grateful to be honest, because all I do now is clear the end game content and main story.
I know that one of the main appeals of this game is the open world exploration, but I grew tired of it. I'd rather explore worlds on my other singleplayer games than Genshin nowadays.
I still unlock the whole area and way points, but I stopped caring about the % in exploration.
That said, having new map expansions won't hurt me nor bother me so I'm still all for it.
Idixal2026-01-05 23:14
I don’t care much about the percentage either, but having more areas to explore is definitely preferable. I still think it’s a pretty important part of the game.
agent__berry2026-01-06 03:41
It’s also more beneficial to players who have 100%ed their exploration in other areas (which is more likely for players who have been around longer) and rely on exploration for primos/weapon upgrade materials (which is the more important one for me, I don’t have enough crystals to level weapons for the characters I have and have been interacting with shiny spots for 1* weapons ) I’ve been playing since 2.X and I am officially out of stuff to grind until the next event arrives or until one of the two endgame modes resets. This isn’t bad on this banner, where it’s a rerun of two characters I don’t need any more of and I don’t need their weapons, but the upcoming Columbia and Ineffa banner IS going to kill me even with new areas to explore. I don’t like having to force my exploration just to pull, and by the time i get even one character I’m already going to be in the high 80s of exploration for the new areas :/
not to complain too hard, since I explored the game so thoroughly for a reason — I do love it dearly. it’s just a shame when I have to rush a bit to get the characters I want just because there’s not nearly as much for me to do or gather elsewhere at this stage of play, you know?
Snaffle272026-01-06 00:19
I too have less free time. It took me long before I 100%'d all regions of Nod Krai up to this point. That said, I'm not even done with the volcano map in that later Natlan patch and haven't done that summertime map much aside from run around unlocking most waypoints lmao. I fell out of love for playing during the Natlan release because in my opinion it started off strong, but started to get boring. Now I'm hyped and really loving 6.X so it motivates me to play more.
adamercury2026-01-06 04:02
I just remember that I haven't even unlock the waypoints inside the volcano lmao. If Varka/Nicole has a exploration ability then maybe it will motivate me to explore more (As a Chasca main, I'm lying haha).
Sad-Option-29082026-01-05 21:32
Yep that's true after all there's a reason genshin has alot of things to do
IHeartBadCode2026-01-05 21:50
Yeah this is me in ZZZ. I just like the agents and how glorious the graphics are. Genshin is more my team building, caring about who I pull, etc...
I think that's what's cool about the entire offering, you can have one game be the "walking around one" and one be the "serious one", you can have them both just be the just whatever game.
There's a ton of variety.
Joe_from_ungvar2026-01-05 22:15
i like ZZZ characters and story but i really cant handle endgame
even though i got two other games where i reached the point i can actually do endgame
Successful_Laugh_2992026-01-05 23:39
Also better animation does not equal better graphics. I much prefer genshins graphics over zenless.
caramel90popcorn2026-01-06 09:06
Yeah true I prefer genshin graphics more but ZZZ animations especially in combat and I love the wipeout screens, but genshin is defo being creative in combat animation after Natlan
rW0HgFyxoJhYka2026-01-06 02:18
Endgame is harder in ZZZ, only because skill factor is a bigger gap. Its less forgiving and there's a lot more action compared to Genshin since you have dodge and parry, and boss mechanics that need more strategy around than unga bunga. But I dont really know which endgame you are talking about. Endless tower for example is for the true masochists.
Rhodynit2026-01-06 12:14
Not only skill, but the flashes are too important to pay atention, if your game is lagging and the visuals are on low its much harder to see it
jademarlodotcom2026-01-06 04:49
For me, its walking around in Genshin staring at Mavuika's boobs, and walking around in ZZZ oggling Trigger's ass lmao
dragjamon2026-01-06 11:48
My man
Resident_Lurker7472026-01-06 10:33
Exactly, that's why im in other gacha games, they're the chill game for me.
While Genshin's where I lock in for characters, grinding for primos, etc..
ExtrovertArtist2026-01-05 22:56
Unlike the real world, in Genshin, i can succeed in a way that makes me feel good. I can finally 36 star the abyss, and with the last update and this update i was able to get all the rewards for IT :))
C_Khoga2026-01-05 23:04
>After all games are our little medium of escapism from real world problems.
Indeed, that's why i like stupid glitches and holes in exploration.
telegetoutmyway2026-01-05 23:53
I refer to Genshin as my IRL teapot. Its not a "main game" its a "home game".
It used to be League of Legends for me. But thats so much more of a time sync and toxic by nature of pvp, whereas genshin can just be pure relaxation and familiarity.
BoysenberryFew87022026-01-05 20:56
Bro is ignoring the funniest part, its like not wanting to do maths even tho solving exercises is so satisfying
babangelsin2026-01-05 20:58
Where are the Hard mode Stygian rewards?
0/10
PandiTati2026-01-05 21:10
Enka said OP didn't even try SO
Small-Percentage-9622026-01-05 21:22
I deadass forgot about it, thank you for telling me LOL
babangelsin2026-01-05 21:28
"This is how you enjoy Genshin Impact"
\>Doesn't play Genshin Impact
I can see how it *sort of makes sense*
fanderoyalty2026-01-05 23:24
Forgets to do one content
"You don't even play the game!"
blueandgoldilocks2026-01-05 21:00
Fuck floor 12
Incorrect_Passport_72026-01-05 21:09
I 100% agree
I'm more than content with getting 27 stars in the spiral abyss, clearing Stygian Onslaught on Hard and clearing Act 6 of The Imaginarium Theatre
The_New_Overlord2026-01-05 22:04
Same, i just go in, do what I can do, then bail. I'm here for the story and exploration, not combat.
Necessary_Fennel_5912026-01-05 21:09
That’s what I’m thinking, abyss, theatre, and SO give so little pulls for players that it doesn’t even matter if you do the highest level or not. Abyss is just 5 pulls every month which is pathetic.
youraveragehobo2026-01-05 21:10
Seems boring.
No-Amoeba3882026-01-05 21:13
depending what you have and how much you build...yeah it can be like this...then again these last 2 where pretty tame in comparison with other recent instances, but to each their own.
Diii1232026-01-05 21:14
I play the characters I like while also making them as strong as possible to clear end game, it's not hard or "painful" to enjoy both sides.
yuvi29992026-01-05 21:25
Yeah I think I enjoy building strong characters. I also explore and play story cause I enjoy that. But I enjoy pulling new characters the most and having enough primos as an f2p is my main priority.
Whilyam2026-01-05 23:31
If you can make your characters strong enough to take the final round of endgame, this post isn't for you. What isn't worth it is chasing after shilled units and rewarding Hoyo for designing bosses to exclude old units instead of making interesting new characters.
Wild_ColaPenguin2026-01-06 02:02
On top of what you said, what I dislike the most is that every end-game or combat mode in this game is a disguised time-trial DPS check.
It's just boring. Everything other than dealing dmg feels like a waste of time.
I'm still waiting for a roguelike, 2.4 Labyrinth Warrior-like end game mode. Sadly, it won't likely ever happen.
TheChosenerPoke2026-01-06 02:21
i mean it’s not really disguised, all 3 endgame modes have a literal timer hanging over your head lol
Ap_Sona_Bot2026-01-06 02:02
Doing theater 6 is literally just using one team and the opening characters. It's about as difficult as Abyss 9 or 10.
Actually now that I think about it you can borrow a friend's character for that so IT 6 is literally doable as soon as you unlock level 70.
TaruTaru232026-01-05 21:16
Where's Stygian only until lvl 3?
MuscleMan4052026-01-05 21:17
No, this is how YOU enjoy genshin. Everybody has their own perspective.
Ellogan662026-01-05 22:59
Building teams for the endgame is my favourite part personally
Rough_Lychee57852026-01-05 23:17
What else do you even do? I max out everything but stygian. It's pretty nice to complete endgame content
dekunny2026-01-05 23:53
Ngl i love just doing abyss and IT runs, not stigian though, my account cannot clear fearless for the love of me and the hardest before that is boring
Not even for the gems, i just enjoy some challenging content once in a while, i even learned a mavuika trick to deal with the annoying plunge Wiesel
BeccaNomf2026-01-05 21:18
oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't know that by investing in my favourites and enjoying taking them through endgame modes, I was doing it wrong
thank you for teaching me to do better 🙏
alvarisle2026-01-05 21:45
I think they’re just sharing their perspective from their personal experience.
Maybe pushing these end game modes to them is rage inducing and a waste of time.
Glad you’re having fun though, I think that’s the point they’re trying to make. For all of us to just have fun with the game.
slendermax2026-01-05 22:00
Genuinely amazed how personally bothered so many of the comments are. I think this post was a hotter take than OP realized lol
kolleden2026-01-05 22:08
Its not even that, its the notion of downplaying other playstyles "*This* is actually how you enjoy the game"
Fadriii2026-01-05 22:12
It's less of an issue with the take and more with how it's phrased
"This is how you enjoy"
"All pain is self-inflicted"
OP's coming off less "I am at peace" and more of "You guys are doing it wrong"
toucanlost2026-01-05 22:32
This is just a problem I've noticed with the big hoyo games subreddits. There's always a few comments interpreting the post with seething resentment or not giving the benefit of doubt.
AbidingTruth2026-01-05 23:04
We're intepreting the post exactly as it was presented, which is "people playing end game do not enjoy genshin". And before you say "they didn't say that", take a moment to consider the definitive vocabulary in the title. Its not "in my opinion" or "for me", not "one of the ways to enjoy genshin", its THIS is how you enjoy genshin. Theres no benefit of doubt to give, the wording was very clear
zuth22026-01-06 09:53
Maybe then phrase it as "This is how I enjoy..." rather than "This is how ***you*** enjoy..."
AbidingTruth2026-01-05 22:47
Thats not what they're saying though, you're assigning meaning that OP never gave any evidence for. The post is called "This is how you enjoy Genshin Impact" with 0/9 stars for floor 12. The direct messaging here is "the end game content is not fun", not "everyone should have fun their own way"
alvarisle2026-01-06 00:58
That’s fair, I always try to be positive and give people the benefit of the doubt.
Things could have certainly been phrased better.
Ali-J232026-01-05 21:19
I mean everyone can enjoy the game differently. Nothing wrong in not caring about endgame, and at the same time some people actually get enjoyment from winning the hardest content
Like i literally spent 5 hrs on dire yesterday, and that was an insanely fun challenge to do on a weekend. It's not about pain it's about the challenge.
What's cool about genshin is that pretty much anyone can find something to like.
USSLittle2026-01-06 11:11
First positive comment i found for abyss/harder content. At this point (last dozen patch’s) i barely even touch events and only log on to DO abyss/dire/theater cause challenging content is the part of this game i enjoy the most.
cartercr2026-01-05 21:19
Nah, playing IT *at all* is painful to me.
And that’s okay. The reward for that pain is more cute waifus with cracked builds!
Small-Percentage-9622026-01-05 21:27
I built Sethos and he hits 20k on charged shots.
Not the best investment of time but damn I'm happy.
cartercr2026-01-05 21:28
And you know what, good for you!
jasmsaurus2026-01-05 21:19
Yeah I’ve actually never got all the stars in floor 12. I WAS SO CLOSE IN IMAGINARIUM THEATER the other day I literally just missed one star. Usually I don’t care but that was a little heartbreaking
Bierzgal2026-01-05 21:20
This is often my approach as well. I usually clear Floor 12, Act 8 etc. but if I'm missing a star somewhere? I'm good, no need to repeat that. This week I was able to attempt Act 10 for the very first time since characters alligned better than ever. I dropped one star in Act 9 I think but I'm happy with finishing the whole thing anyway. It's good enough.
I have nothing against a different approach though. Cheers to anyone that tries harder. To each their own.
TheRealMalkior2026-01-05 21:20
I do the same, peace of mind is far more important than a few extra breadcrumbs.
gabrielique2026-01-05 21:22
I am happy for the people that enjoy the endgame combat and I am glad Hoyo is making sure they are well fed and have so many options, but yeah I agree everyone's limit is different.
I can clear IT 10 and Arcana for now but that's a one hour struggle and SO is a one and done at level 3. Spiral Abyss sometimes I do floor 12 if I am in the mood (which is rarely.)
I just wish people didn't just assume everyone enjoys combat in the same way -or if they don't it's because they don't build their characters.
Genshin is still not punishing players too much for not clearing endgame (it still sucks that most of the primos we get are from the endgame content nowdays, i miss when it was from events.) which I can only appreciate.
Akomatai2026-01-05 21:22
I'll usually give 12 one run unless i miss 36 but can get there just by some simple team or gear swapping. Most of my abyss time is spent running 4 star solos on 10 or duos on 11. Faruzan, sara, beidou, candace, yunjin, sethos have been particularly fun mains for that.
IT i actually just enjoy though i havent cleared lunar yet.
Stygian is fun enough too but i don't sweat if fearless is too annoying. But most of my time here is just spent farming artifacts on Hard with meme teams
NabeXico2026-01-05 21:23
Let me tell you this, find at least one account with as many C6 characters as possible and add them as a friend. SO becomes way easier, assuming you actually know how to manage character usage.
Worst case for me was missing 2–3 stars
Elxjasonx2026-01-05 21:23
By not even trying, don't go assuming that everyone likes the same content as you. For me i cant even fathom someone would no try to play the game, but i dont go arount telling they sont enjoy the game
PhantomOfVoid2026-01-05 21:24
Breezed through hard theatre today (not visionary, but still).
Ecchify2026-01-05 21:25
what do you even do in the game then, you're eventually going to run out of content if you actually play the other shit
ph4nt0m_0902026-01-05 21:26
If you dont enjoy the combat then why even bother? You certainly dont pull for meta and you get enough by exploring and quests to get s few chars anyways so just play that and let those who enjoy the combat aspect enjoy.
You dont have to project your inability to enjoy some element of a game on others.
Vantre72702026-01-05 21:26
I enjoy actually trying :3
D4NNYYCOLL3R2026-01-05 21:26
Nah, you are just too ignorant of your skill issues.
hhhhhBan2026-01-05 21:28
I like Abyss 12 but Lunar IT? Yeah nah, fuck that, I did it for the first time this month and I never want to try again, I had to use the most bullshit unfun teams that could BARELY clear shit because I had to spread my supports thin as well and if a friend of mine didn't have Durin I would not have done it.
Abyss 12 is doable, Lunar IT is dogshit, Stygian above Menacing is right up there with Lunar IT in the dogshit competition.
Rachel15782026-01-05 21:28
Exactly! Don’t inflict unnecessary pain on yourself.
naz_19922026-01-05 21:28
been doing this since before 2.0. stopped f12 right after i managed to 3\* f12 back then.
for IT, after i cleared whatever the highest floor to get the "card", i also stopped at lower difficulty but i think i did uptil act8 and it was pretty fast with no thinking required.
Frostgaurdian02026-01-05 21:28
Legion of butt hurt thinks otherwise.
RichSeat2026-01-05 21:29
I totally agree with you, if that’s the right way for you. I am really happy that you found your happy place in genshin.
I personally love to optimise my characters and push them as far as I can in abyss and SO.
Banjo032026-01-05 21:29
Seems boring.
lithicgirl2026-01-05 21:29
The pain is the fun part
tarantinquentin02026-01-05 21:29
Fuck yeah man!!!
Ronanesque2026-01-05 21:29
Uhm no, i enjoy some challenge actually. Im also a f2p player, granted i been playing since 1.0
Raspberry9ARina2026-01-05 21:30
I can clear act 8 but cant even attempt floor 12😭😭😭
PracticingMaggotry2026-01-06 02:57
Imaginarium Theater is pretty easy especially this round. Hydro and Pyro being available means most of the strong characters are playable. Abyss is just horrendous for me as usual.
Living_Thunder2026-01-06 03:15
This abyss was horrible, especially chamber 1
heptyne2026-01-06 04:41
I had to limp a Mavuika Emilie burning team thru it.
Acrobatic-Signal2102026-01-06 05:48
Used oppa the stoppa with nakuweed and arlecchino and cleared the first part of chamber 1 in 5:45 mins.
quinpon64337_x2026-01-06 06:35
It’s such a ridiculous hike in difficulty, can sweep floor 11 without even trying and then 12-1 takes me nearly the entire timer to beat the first half (last time I bothered to try)
BadgerForLife52026-01-06 07:30
It's intended this way, so most casuals wouldn't miss out much even if they skip floor 12. All casual players can clear floor 11 easily. Only the sweats can clear floor 12 with ease.
Beginning_Cap_70972026-01-05 21:30
I find my mate. I don't bother touching the 12. Even when my account is 5 year old 🤣
Alert-Smile-19212026-01-05 22:50
I try it once. If I clear I clear, if not I disengage and never look back.
Lunacriz2026-01-05 23:09
Yea same with me. Sometimes the timing hits and the characters match then I might get 35 stars.
blueberrycheeseeee2026-01-05 23:27
LOL the only AND last time I tried floor 12 was last 2021 (not even 9 stars for that) and never touched it again
40k_Novice_Novelist2026-01-06 04:49
The last time I managed to get 6 stars in floor 12 was like goddamn 3 years ago, and that was only **ONCE**! 🙏
All future Abyss levels have been downhill from there.
Reality_LB2026-01-06 00:56
Same not worth the headache lol I have fun doing up to 11
creativityequal02026-01-05 21:31
by literally not even playing the game? good for you i guess
Zertaku2026-01-05 21:31
I can't even clear the final chamber for floor 12.
Cubbybear012026-01-06 00:47
Same here 41 enemies is honestly to much
Ikses2026-01-05 21:32
didnt get the joke, coz you skipped most fun part
demonzq2026-01-05 21:33
Idk, I’m on the opposite side.
Each refresh of SO and IT is like a breath of fresh air.
I would run Dire and 12 star IT for hours until I’ll be able to clear them, not because of the rewards, but just for fun. Before I used to be a mostly story/exploration lover, but now when every location is 100% explored, except Sumeru, because f Sumeru, there is not much to do, so endgame content brings pure joy.
Everyoneheresamoron2026-01-05 21:34
Or you could simply not play IT at all and enjoy yourself even more.
But you're not ready for that conversation.
Albireookami2026-01-05 21:35
I want to know who thought the theater was a good design, specially now that we are 2 years into "national racism" comps.
ThatOstrichGuy2026-01-05 21:36
That's not how I enjoy the game.
Panciastko-1952026-01-05 21:36
Hell yeah. I always 27* the abyss, and most of the time i get nowhere in the imaginarium. This time, i finished act 8 for the first time and it felt so satisfying.
Insidious_NX2026-01-05 21:37
That is how most players enjoy these kinds of games and that's absolutely fine. Endgame modes are only there for those who care for them.
Personally? I like the endgame combat challenges as much as I enjoyed going through Nod Krai's AQ. The former requires me to think about team building and resource management. I mentally stop at Fearless for S.O because Dire either requires peak investment (which is based on a lot of RNG luck) or Whaling.
Jaffrry2026-01-05 21:38
Maybe you people should stop doing this "Not clearing endgame fully = fun" "Endgame clearers = taking themselves way too seriously/not having fun" posts. You are as ignorant to how the game is enjoyed as those that belittle non-endgame clearers for saying so.
MassRedemption2026-01-05 21:39
Personally, I love the satisfaction of completing extremely difficult endgame content. It's the same reason I like dark souls and puzzle games. You may hit a wall 50 times, but eventually you get past the wall and there's nothing more satisfying.
nyuulaa2026-01-05 21:39

OmniOnly2026-01-05 21:40
I would at least attempt floor 12 and IT acts. Every time I see people do less they often have way more anxiety over attempts of any kind. At that point leaving it empty would look better. It would look better if you attempted floor 12 and got like 3 stars max, to show you do it once and move on.
It’s more self inflicted to not try and pretend you’re ok. Then have a go at it and go love your life.
TiltingSoda31262026-01-05 21:43
This is how *you, OP enjoys Genshin.
There’s a problem with people pressuring everyone to try push their furthest into Abyss etc. for sure, and nobody should be pressured to play what, or when they don’t want to.
However I for one, and plenty others, really do enjoy the challenge and push to complete endgames, your post is doing the exact same thing the meta players do where you project how you like to play onto others 😭.
I don’t disagree with your sentiment though.
Hades7712026-01-05 21:45
imaginarium theatre can be annoying but abyss 12 is so easy, i have fun using non meta characters like yoimiya and still clear with 3 stars
Otherwise_Ad71422026-01-05 21:46
Yes. My life is so much easier when I accepted that act 6/8, 6 stars floor 12 is not even bad. It's decently good.
And then they introduced the collectible cards. Absolutely my thing.
Master-Bottle3412026-01-05 21:48
I've few words to say **"I LOVE IMAGINARIUM THEATER"**
leakmydata2026-01-05 21:48
Wrong, you spend primos and time getting those extra 200 primos per month. That’s $3.34 worth of primos! By the end of the year you’ve got $40.08 worth of primos stocked up!
That means 10 years from now you’ve almost got enough primos to guarantee a limited banner 5 star!
Or 1000 years from now you can time travel back to the year 2025 and put a down payment on a house. Take your pick.
Templar2k72026-01-05 21:49
I have fun pushing myself to the limits and seeing if I can force Eula in Abyss every reset and still get 36 stars.
chicks38542026-01-05 21:50
Genshin isn't just Musk Reef. >!It also has Mondstadt Library and Liyue Millelith Encampment!<
Panty-Sniffer-122026-01-05 21:50
I still remember the first day I actually 36 started the abyss. It was when arle first released and thanks to her I'm still doing the 36 stars till this date
Clonzfoever2026-01-05 21:50
Act 8 really isn't hard. It's after that lol
dasbtaewntawneta2026-01-05 21:50
this is me with IT. can clear abyss and fearless and have fun with the challenge. but IT is just miserable to me so i just complete hard mode and call it a day
meatballFist2026-01-05 21:52
First image not bother with it and for Second image doing it but stop at floor 10 ( maybe F11 if possible)
Samuel60gato2026-01-05 21:53
eu ganhei 20 gemas 😥
GarbageTruck76892026-01-05 21:58
I'd say playing hard mode for Theatre isn't that much more to do, but I 100% agree with the abyss part lol
RogerRavvit882026-01-05 21:59
Lmao. I was literally just saying this to myself last night.
No floor 12, stop at act 8, don’t go past hard, just enjoy the game gang represent.
SectorApprehensive582026-01-05 22:00
this is what i do on my xbox alt. cant even be bothered getting past 70, and only for hex resonance
Whendfield1232026-01-05 22:00
Lol some people here got really offended over op not doing floor 12 or harder IT difficulties
WillTheWAFSack2026-01-05 22:01
This is what I do also. HSR is the game where I actually care about the meta, but I just cannot enjoy caring about the meta in genshin (not that there's anything wrong with caring)
MIMINOSEC2026-01-05 22:01
Skipping floor 12 is so real
Patient_Monitor51602026-01-05 22:01
Or this is just skill issue
daily_bina2026-01-05 22:02
Soo real. Now we pull for bina and wait for sandrone while enjoying content
Regular-Ad-9802026-01-05 22:04
I agree with this when it comes to stygian. I just do hard and peace out, easy primos in less than a minute. I never understood the obsession with those stupid feathers.
But as an og player, I can easily clear abyss and theatre and usually enjoy it, so I have no problems there.
FlashKillerX2026-01-05 22:05
If this is the most your account is capable of, that is perfectly fine. At the end of the day you’re missing a combined like 3 or 4 pulls a month from not doing these harder stages. That’s nothing compared to the ~70 pulls give or take we get a patch from all the other content
And best case this is a goal to work towards, a purpose for developing your characters. Sometimes it’s fun to have something realistically achievable to work towards instead of just doing it like a chore
ItsLoudB2026-01-05 22:06
Tbf I enjoy theatre completing it with 1-2 stars and still getting all the primo
I'm with you about skipping floor 12 tho
kolleden2026-01-05 22:07
Nope. Thats how YOU enjoy it.
I enjoy min maxing my rotations, my builds and my characters in order to complete all the end-game modes. Giving up on the concept of combat just diminishes the point of the game for me.
Endrundator2026-01-05 22:09
This is so damn real. The only of the three hoyo games where I dont take endgame too seriously. Genshin is the one I play mostly for the story and its characters
Bluetooth_Speaker12026-01-05 22:11
Doing endgame modes is not enjoyable to me so i have fun in other ways like exploring and stuff but i'm glad it works for you lol
No wrong way to play, as long as you're having fun and enjoying the time spent anyway
MxniaOffline2026-01-05 22:12
Some people taking this post personally 😭
AbidingTruth2026-01-05 22:49
The post itself is pretty antagonizing to anyone who doesn't agree, so its not hard to see why
yznts2026-01-05 22:13
I relate a lot to this. Have a bunch of chars in tops, relatively okish teams, but don’t bother with clearing endgame content at all 😂
Dougline2026-01-05 22:13
I guess I enjoy the pain then, every reset I go for 36 stars Abyss cleared, Imaginarium Theater with 12 stars and both Lunar Arcanum cleared, just at Stygian Onslaught I start to struggle, but I always can beat at least Fearless difficult with no problem, this one I'm at 222s, but at Dire I can't complete it, but that's because they are basically forcing you to whale at this point, plus it needs specific teams with characters I didn't liked (pulled for them), so I just don't care about that one.
IRLMerlin2026-01-05 22:15
i think that abyss needs a general facelift
theatre is very easy and fun. all you need technically is 2 dps characters from the 3 given elements, 1 from friends and 2 from the starting characters and you already have enough energy to clear all the way to 10. rewards are prettty good and if you are up for resets and tryharding you can get some extra goodies like artifact juice
stygian is much of the same. good rewards that are accessible to everyone plus extra artifact feathers
why cant abyss be like that? abyss only gives primos so if you dont clear it 100% you feel left out but doing the 100% is either ok or impossible because of shill
right now they have 2 squirrel bosses that need plunge attacks. you either roll varessa, do resets with skirk freeze or you are cooked and hardlocked out of primogems. i used to 36 star abyss semi regularly, now i simply cant do it half the time because i didnt roll for the characters they wanted me to roll for
change abyss to be like the other modes. the so and theatre system works for whales (with the weapon skins) for dolphins (with artifact quality) and f2p with primos
right now abyss only really works for whales and dolphins sometimes, but the rewards are primogems something that these sort of people dont really need or at least they dont need as much as the f2p
Less-Money70032026-01-05 22:15
The cost of sanity and pulling your faves only is literally like $10 a month in primo income at best and like one potentially good artifact
Soulses2026-01-05 22:19
I started like 2 years ago and I never once did the final one in the theater or the abyss. I just don't find it fun at all to put in the effort
_AmaShigure_2026-01-05 22:19
We're the same, I just go where ever my account can do. No need to stress out to get that something really is beyond your account's reach.
KasumiGotoTriss2026-01-05 22:20
I enjoy endgame, so yeah no thanks your way sucks.
SoggyBlood29812026-01-05 22:20
To be honest, hard IT is not much harder than Medium, at least much more doable for casual than floor 12 for sure, I'm definitely not touching that shit any more.
Impossible-Ice1292026-01-05 22:22
Sorry but you don't get to decide how I enjoy my games.
Graveyard_012026-01-05 22:26
As long as u have fun, it doesn’t matter what you do. There was a point where I was closing the game with 160/160 resin and no commissions done, where I just goofed off with friends in co op as I got sick of the grind. Using resin for commissions put an end to that, and having 1 condensed = 60 resin has allowed me to be even more lazy
Visible-Albatross-772026-01-05 22:27
I just buy the characters to make them as strong as I can for combat based end game or events cause that’s the aspect I enjoy the most. No right or wrong answer imo.
SombraOnline2026-01-05 22:31
“Non-meta” players are so insecure I swear.
JaylisJayP2026-01-05 22:41
Thats one way. Another way is building really strong teams and clearing.
I am planning to skip the upcoming HSR Elarion meta...I just cant do another Remembrance path so soon. My endgame there will start looking like this lol.
Electronic_Team39392026-01-05 22:43
I go for the highest rewards, collect them, have fun in the process and achieved more than you. Makes me happy. Its just a you thing.
IPutTheLInLayla2026-01-05 22:49
I would hate Playing like this personally
Starkeeper_Reddit2026-01-05 22:54
I mean I genuinely enjoy IT (most of the time) so I'll usually at least go for act 10 + the tarot cards, even if I don't go for all the stella
Orio_n2026-01-05 22:56
Speak for yourself im sweating like its ranked
DemoralizedRightHand2026-01-05 22:56
It's usually exploration. So it is exploration > new stories/world quests > new characters > events > end game
zuth22026-01-05 23:00
It certainly is not how *I* do, but if this is what works for you OP I am happy for you. I log into the game every day to farm artifacts and I would like those efforts to mean something otherwise I would just not bother with resin and only do story/exploration. So I usually max every end game mode (except for Dire because I usually can only beat 1-2 bosses never all 3 due to missing meta characters)
TerraKingB2026-01-05 23:13
This is how YOU enjoy genshin impact. I enjoy min maxing, building characters to the best I can, and clearing the hardest difficulties in endgame. That’s part of the fun for me. Weird telling other people how they should be having fun.
BlackestFlame2026-01-05 23:17
I disagree
gnusica2026-01-05 23:30
Nah, endgame content is enjoyable for people who like challenge. It's ok if you don't but many people do.
pulkxy2026-01-06 00:06
that's like totally your opinion
Bubbly-Group-44972026-01-06 00:11
This is how you cope.
SecretYogurtcloset572026-01-06 00:11
I enjoy Genshin by completing everything, like getting all achievements, getting 12 stars in IT, getting 36 stars in abyss, and beating Stygian under 180 secs so just because you can't do that it doesn't mean everyone is the same 🤷♀️
Constrict0r2026-01-06 00:19
I enjoy the challenges. You have to think about which characters to use and when to use them. To each their own. I'm glad there's a real use for a solid roster and gearing your characters up.
Venti_Hsr2026-01-06 00:36
From your point of view, meanwhile some people enjoy fully clearing both IT and Abyss every reset
-Ren972026-01-06 01:20
No it's not, but I'm happy you enjoy it this way 🙏
jonnevituwu2026-01-06 01:21
As long as youre challenging your limits every now and then and seeing if you can clear more of the stuff, sure.
fuminghung2026-01-06 02:16
Floor 12 and IT are easy. I'm doing myself injustice for not getting free primo.
WowiiZowii2026-01-06 02:21
Lunar clear with at least 9 stars or bust.
Abication2026-01-06 02:30
The only thing I can't abide while still having fun is dire. I can 36 star and 12 star 10 floor clear and I can clear fearless but dire is just a pain in the ass.
Dollaz_1232026-01-06 02:54
Speaking for yourself.. everyone enjoys the game differently.
Alovcrevda2026-01-06 02:55
how about respect other people enjoyment, many people like playing meta too
D_U_A_R_D_O2026-01-06 03:28
That's how YOU enjoy genshin impact, dont put me on this shi.
ECVEN2026-01-06 04:08
"This is how you enjo-", nope. Enjoy the game the way you want, you can only play story and other game modes then ignore the endgame completely, or, do the same as OP, or go sweaty. Purely subjective, the only objective way to enjoy the game is don't get into drama online.
MridulBiswasMB2026-01-06 05:33
Look at this tryhard, actually playing Abyss & IT. Haven't touched either in years.
Kaiiiyuh2026-01-06 06:27
Facts lol
TheGungnirGuy2026-01-06 07:44
I'm like this. I just can't stand the way that endgame is designed.
Too many timers. Too much "Oh, you didn't get every single character? Go fuck yourself then.", too much "You had better be using the exact team we had in mind for this content or else you lose!"
If they just removed the timers, I could justify suffering through their inane designs. But they are far too narrow for me to enjoy the endgame content. Tanks are irrelevant. If I'm not looking up meta pages for the exact stat combinations needed, then I'm fucked.
And yeah, I know that one dude does every abyss with nothing but 4 stars. They are the 'George spiders' of Genshin and don't count.
When I stopped caring about floor 12, suddenly I had a lot more fun. I do hard level in stygian. I do medium in theatre. I am so *done* with games constantly slapping a three minute timer on something and saying "Fuck you for trying to think your way through a fight, be a DPS monkey or uninstall". Maybe that makes me a bad player. But you know what else it gives me? Normal blood pressure.
Timers are a plague upon gaming. I wish them a swift, agonizing, and ironic death.
drinks_Grapejuice2026-01-06 08:12
Yup, me enjoying the game and pulling for Arlecchino and Mavuika but only playing the theater twice a year and never stepping foot into the Stygian.
Wirawicak2026-01-06 08:15
i can still push to 8 on IT, but Abyss i agree.
red8cangodye2026-01-06 09:37
Imaginarium Theatre is giving me anxiety. I dread playing it and I keep putting it off.... But yet I need those primos .. and I had to do it eventually ... So am I enjoying GI?
Sahiku12026-01-06 09:42
I just enjoy exploration and story (did even try floor 12 for a year, only do hard mode in theater not visionary and only hard in stygian). I didn't even pull a character for more than a year skipping all natlan (except for skirk which i regret) and now I'm skipping most of nod krai (i hope varka is op to pull for him or just skip for snezhnaya)
qwertybruuhh2026-01-06 10:54
Bruhh sameee
Skud_Missal2026-01-06 12:30
I can't help but feel like some kind of slave when I play Genshin. Everything is a grind. Some things have to be done EVERY DAY, at least 5 days a week, or on a specific schedule. Genshin feels like a job where I am paid in crumbs and it takes months to make a damn cookie. Somehow, people actually WANT to play that game and PAY TO WORK!
"GACHA!"
🤦
Andre02_2026-01-06 12:48
insane that this is a hot take apparently.
"You don't understand, you HAVE to do all endgame" i refuse to believe these people are real and not some AI made to convince people to spend over meta
Honest_Milk_82742026-01-06 13:41
Primogems in Genshin Impact work like a self-reinforcing grind, almost a chasing-your-own-tail system: to earn more Primogems, you’re pushed toward the hardest content in the game. But to clear that content efficiently, you need the strongest characters. And to get those characters, you need… more Primogems.
This creates a feedback loop: you need Primogems to get better characters so you can earn more Primogems, which then fuels the same cycle again. You’re always chasing the next batch of Primogems in order to keep up with the chase itself.
Because of that, the healthiest way to play the game is simply to enjoy the story, exploration, and characters, without obsessing over the endgame, which IMO isn’t particularly fascinating anyway.
Commentaires
Challenge is where the enjoyment comes from, for me.
Don't project your views as objective facts
cuz for me at some point there would be no point in pulling new characters if there is nowhere to actually use them
Sort of like those tower Dungeon manga where the MC keep going higher levels and it get harder & harder.
People acting like "waifu over meta" or anything similar is the only way to enjoy the game irritate me.
Peace of mind is where the enjoyment comes from, for me.
Don't project your views as objective facts
u projecting back what they said to them doesnt work when they just stated it like an opinion
This isn't the only way to enjoy the game, different people enjoy different things. Look at me as an *example*: I enjoy combat, but I don't pretend everyone should enjoy it.
Is it clear enough for you now, to understand I don't project shit, only show that there are other ways.
In the comment, they simply said that they enjoy challenge. That’s not “presenting opinions as objective facts”. If anything, it’s the exact opposite.
That’s called expressing a subjective opinion, in case you didn’t know, which is ironically what OP was supposed to do in the first place.
That's like spending 100.000€ on a Porsche and then driving 50km/h in a 120km/h zone. At least take them for a test drive if you're gonna spend on characters, else they are just fancy and expensive wasted pixels.
I don't really have time or interest in farming artifacts or building teams. My Mavuika hits almost 100k on ultimate and that's more than enough for me 😅
Play your game just as you want, the way you're having fun is just as valid as try-harding. No need to embellish anything
Like just accept that the dev team has their priorities and if they didnt put a region out for 2 patches its because thats planned. Its not some sign that there aren't going to be enough exploration areas or some shit. And even if there aren't as many, I rather have good content than rushed crap.
Especially bc the open world exploration and world quests are my favorite part of the game so I’ve also been kinda disappointed the last few patches despite the AQs being really good.
I know that one of the main appeals of this game is the open world exploration, but I grew tired of it. I'd rather explore worlds on my other singleplayer games than Genshin nowadays.
I still unlock the whole area and way points, but I stopped caring about the % in exploration.
That said, having new map expansions won't hurt me nor bother me so I'm still all for it.
not to complain too hard, since I explored the game so thoroughly for a reason — I do love it dearly. it’s just a shame when I have to rush a bit to get the characters I want just because there’s not nearly as much for me to do or gather elsewhere at this stage of play, you know?
I think that's what's cool about the entire offering, you can have one game be the "walking around one" and one be the "serious one", you can have them both just be the just whatever game.
There's a ton of variety.
even though i got two other games where i reached the point i can actually do endgame
While Genshin's where I lock in for characters, grinding for primos, etc..
>After all games are our little medium of escapism from real world problems.
Indeed, that's why i like stupid glitches and holes in exploration.
It used to be League of Legends for me. But thats so much more of a time sync and toxic by nature of pvp, whereas genshin can just be pure relaxation and familiarity.
0/10
\>Doesn't play Genshin Impact
I can see how it *sort of makes sense*
"You don't even play the game!"
I'm more than content with getting 27 stars in the spiral abyss, clearing Stygian Onslaught on Hard and clearing Act 6 of The Imaginarium Theatre
It's just boring. Everything other than dealing dmg feels like a waste of time.
I'm still waiting for a roguelike, 2.4 Labyrinth Warrior-like end game mode. Sadly, it won't likely ever happen.
Actually now that I think about it you can borrow a friend's character for that so IT 6 is literally doable as soon as you unlock level 70.
Not even for the gems, i just enjoy some challenging content once in a while, i even learned a mavuika trick to deal with the annoying plunge Wiesel
thank you for teaching me to do better 🙏
Maybe pushing these end game modes to them is rage inducing and a waste of time.
Glad you’re having fun though, I think that’s the point they’re trying to make. For all of us to just have fun with the game.
"This is how you enjoy"
"All pain is self-inflicted"
OP's coming off less "I am at peace" and more of "You guys are doing it wrong"
Things could have certainly been phrased better.
Like i literally spent 5 hrs on dire yesterday, and that was an insanely fun challenge to do on a weekend. It's not about pain it's about the challenge.
What's cool about genshin is that pretty much anyone can find something to like.
And that’s okay. The reward for that pain is more cute waifus with cracked builds!
Not the best investment of time but damn I'm happy.
I have nothing against a different approach though. Cheers to anyone that tries harder. To each their own.
I can clear IT 10 and Arcana for now but that's a one hour struggle and SO is a one and done at level 3. Spiral Abyss sometimes I do floor 12 if I am in the mood (which is rarely.)
I just wish people didn't just assume everyone enjoys combat in the same way -or if they don't it's because they don't build their characters.
Genshin is still not punishing players too much for not clearing endgame (it still sucks that most of the primos we get are from the endgame content nowdays, i miss when it was from events.) which I can only appreciate.
IT i actually just enjoy though i havent cleared lunar yet.
Stygian is fun enough too but i don't sweat if fearless is too annoying. But most of my time here is just spent farming artifacts on Hard with meme teams
Worst case for me was missing 2–3 stars
You dont have to project your inability to enjoy some element of a game on others.
Abyss 12 is doable, Lunar IT is dogshit, Stygian above Menacing is right up there with Lunar IT in the dogshit competition.
for IT, after i cleared whatever the highest floor to get the "card", i also stopped at lower difficulty but i think i did uptil act8 and it was pretty fast with no thinking required.
I personally love to optimise my characters and push them as far as I can in abyss and SO.
All future Abyss levels have been downhill from there.
Each refresh of SO and IT is like a breath of fresh air.
I would run Dire and 12 star IT for hours until I’ll be able to clear them, not because of the rewards, but just for fun. Before I used to be a mostly story/exploration lover, but now when every location is 100% explored, except Sumeru, because f Sumeru, there is not much to do, so endgame content brings pure joy.
But you're not ready for that conversation.
Personally? I like the endgame combat challenges as much as I enjoyed going through Nod Krai's AQ. The former requires me to think about team building and resource management. I mentally stop at Fearless for S.O because Dire either requires peak investment (which is based on a lot of RNG luck) or Whaling.
It’s more self inflicted to not try and pretend you’re ok. Then have a go at it and go love your life.
There’s a problem with people pressuring everyone to try push their furthest into Abyss etc. for sure, and nobody should be pressured to play what, or when they don’t want to.
However I for one, and plenty others, really do enjoy the challenge and push to complete endgames, your post is doing the exact same thing the meta players do where you project how you like to play onto others 😭.
I don’t disagree with your sentiment though.
And then they introduced the collectible cards. Absolutely my thing.
That means 10 years from now you’ve almost got enough primos to guarantee a limited banner 5 star!
Or 1000 years from now you can time travel back to the year 2025 and put a down payment on a house. Take your pick.
No floor 12, stop at act 8, don’t go past hard, just enjoy the game gang represent.
But as an og player, I can easily clear abyss and theatre and usually enjoy it, so I have no problems there.
And best case this is a goal to work towards, a purpose for developing your characters. Sometimes it’s fun to have something realistically achievable to work towards instead of just doing it like a chore
I'm with you about skipping floor 12 tho
I enjoy min maxing my rotations, my builds and my characters in order to complete all the end-game modes. Giving up on the concept of combat just diminishes the point of the game for me.
No wrong way to play, as long as you're having fun and enjoying the time spent anyway
theatre is very easy and fun. all you need technically is 2 dps characters from the 3 given elements, 1 from friends and 2 from the starting characters and you already have enough energy to clear all the way to 10. rewards are prettty good and if you are up for resets and tryharding you can get some extra goodies like artifact juice
stygian is much of the same. good rewards that are accessible to everyone plus extra artifact feathers
why cant abyss be like that? abyss only gives primos so if you dont clear it 100% you feel left out but doing the 100% is either ok or impossible because of shill
right now they have 2 squirrel bosses that need plunge attacks. you either roll varessa, do resets with skirk freeze or you are cooked and hardlocked out of primogems. i used to 36 star abyss semi regularly, now i simply cant do it half the time because i didnt roll for the characters they wanted me to roll for
change abyss to be like the other modes. the so and theatre system works for whales (with the weapon skins) for dolphins (with artifact quality) and f2p with primos
right now abyss only really works for whales and dolphins sometimes, but the rewards are primogems something that these sort of people dont really need or at least they dont need as much as the f2p
I am planning to skip the upcoming HSR Elarion meta...I just cant do another Remembrance path so soon. My endgame there will start looking like this lol.
Too many timers. Too much "Oh, you didn't get every single character? Go fuck yourself then.", too much "You had better be using the exact team we had in mind for this content or else you lose!"
If they just removed the timers, I could justify suffering through their inane designs. But they are far too narrow for me to enjoy the endgame content. Tanks are irrelevant. If I'm not looking up meta pages for the exact stat combinations needed, then I'm fucked.
And yeah, I know that one dude does every abyss with nothing but 4 stars. They are the 'George spiders' of Genshin and don't count.
When I stopped caring about floor 12, suddenly I had a lot more fun. I do hard level in stygian. I do medium in theatre. I am so *done* with games constantly slapping a three minute timer on something and saying "Fuck you for trying to think your way through a fight, be a DPS monkey or uninstall". Maybe that makes me a bad player. But you know what else it gives me? Normal blood pressure.
Timers are a plague upon gaming. I wish them a swift, agonizing, and ironic death.
"GACHA!"
🤦
"You don't understand, you HAVE to do all endgame" i refuse to believe these people are real and not some AI made to convince people to spend over meta
This creates a feedback loop: you need Primogems to get better characters so you can earn more Primogems, which then fuels the same cycle again. You’re always chasing the next batch of Primogems in order to keep up with the chase itself.
Because of that, the healthiest way to play the game is simply to enjoy the story, exploration, and characters, without obsessing over the endgame, which IMO isn’t particularly fascinating anyway.
