So Genshin Impact just locked character outfits behind main quests...
How do you feel about this? /s

Wait till you find out that they give combat buffs for each element.
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:25
How dare they give combat buffs for each element? I am now going to ask for a refund
Gold_Pineapple76442026-01-08 08:44
And the last buff can't even be activated yet!!!
Traditional-Let2002026-01-08 09:07
hoyo shill activates again...
MuscleDue1702026-01-08 08:19
oh no i must play the game 🥀🥀🥀🥀
Spoopy_Kirei2026-01-08 08:21
Fun locked behind playing the game 😡😡😡
AlaindeshoGT2026-01-08 08:22
What did you say? I have to play the game?
Preposterous
Khelthuzaad2026-01-08 10:12
Whats next,i have to play the game to earn primogems???
AlaindeshoGT2026-01-08 10:17
Yes. You lack a goal but that's neither the game's problem or my problem.
I can't force you to play the game
Passivitea2026-01-08 11:01
If there is a hole, there is a goal.
CalendarMobile63762026-01-08 09:45

mrDHLxpress2026-01-08 09:16
Ugh having to play the game makes it unplayable 🤢🤢🤢
HopelessRat2026-01-08 09:57
You have to install the game first before you can play the game.
Juleamun2026-01-08 10:23
Oh no, what a nightmare.
toxikant2026-01-08 10:27
Oh NOOOO I can't believe they're making me do the story in a story heavy RPG!
hars5682026-01-08 08:19
Nothing wrong in that
AlaindeshoGT2026-01-08 08:20
So you expect them to give 'em just easy?
Lmao
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:24
I am making fun of a genshin hater CC's old post 😭 This post is just a reference to it
AlaindeshoGT2026-01-08 08:25
Ok?
vglisten2026-01-08 08:20
Game is now absolutely ruined. This was the last straw. SKINS. PROBABLY THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ATTRACTION OF THE GAME... LOCKED BEHIND AN ARCHON QUEST........... yep, we're cooked
Wine_In_My_Teacup2026-01-08 08:21
I guess I feel bad for new players who would have to wait a really long time before they are able to unlock the outfits...
KRen_7252026-01-08 08:25
Not really since you can jump straight to Nod Krai after Liyue iirc
Miserable_Aspect87242026-01-08 09:27
The skin is only obtain after the "New Moon" archon quest so no, there is no way to skip.
YukioKushinada2026-01-08 09:30
I think that goes for the exploration unless they implement the quick start option for the new archon quest (i forgot if it’s still a thing or what)
takenusername50012026-01-08 08:22
I understood the reference
Gold_Pineapple76442026-01-08 08:22
It's also locked behind which MC you got, so you'll never be able to get the other skin. Completely absurd!
Vonmoondk2026-01-08 08:26
I wish they gave us the option to switch MC before claiming the outfit.
Gold_Pineapple76442026-01-08 08:49
I don't. I already have the better MC, Lumine!
Traditional-Let2002026-01-08 09:06
Aether havers with the worse character and the better skin.
TuzkiPlus2026-01-08 09:23
*Perfectly balanced*
TemporaryPool61502026-01-08 09:26
Say that to Lumin's face and look how she drop kicks your ahh
Ewiwa_Moon2026-01-08 09:39
Can we trade accounts pls
PetercyEz2026-01-08 10:20
I want Aether. If you are serious, feel free to DM me. I have Childe as well.
fleur--2026-01-08 09:57
I have Lumi, but I want Aether 😭
ShinyGrezz2026-01-08 10:01
I don’t get all the people that claim it’s because it would “break immersion”. We’re not stupid, we know that they’re different characters, and it’s not even like there’s a story difference I would miss if I switched to Lumine over Aether - their characters are exactly the same.
TheDongIsUnbreakable2026-01-08 09:15
need to learn from Zzz
Over451F2026-01-08 10:39
Ok, this is legit critique to be honest :(
Ifalna_Shayoko2026-01-08 08:23
If you do not like the main quest in what is essentially an RPG, I'd argue that the game is not right for you.
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:29
I know it's kinda hard to notice flairs and descriptions but this is not a serious post 😭
Gold_Pineapple76442026-01-08 08:46
OP is just making a satire of a CC that complained about Hexerei buffs
Ifalna_Shayoko2026-01-08 09:11
I don't watch CCs, so I wouldn't know.
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:27
Lots of people are falling for this 😭 This is not a serious post. This is just a jab at Glaive's stupid twitter tweet about the hexerei buffs
ikkekun2026-01-08 08:28
yeap
corecenite2026-01-08 08:30
i want the link to the tweet but they probably deleted it lol
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:36
Someone screenshotted a person retweeting it here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/s/3xMxzsZKjx
corecenite2026-01-08 08:38
no, i meant the link which redirects me to x for the actual tweet... lmao
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:40
Oh. I actually don't use twitter/X 😭
LilithI32026-01-08 09:49
Maybe you can add a clarification in the description of the post? Like a link to that tweet? There might be people who don’t know about that episode
avarageusername2026-01-08 10:22
I mean kind of your fault for assuming people watch that garbage content or follow him in general
Xignu2026-01-08 10:43
There was a reason /s was needed to specify sarcasm, because with the internet there's always someone who means it genuinely
Ordinary_Badger_14802026-01-08 08:28
Anyone who even has a problem with this is pretty entitled. "Oh no I have to play the game I'm playing...." Like it's not even paywalled or anything and most people don't even use their Traveler in the first place. Would be funny to see someone actually complain about it lol
corecenite2026-01-08 08:34
the fact that the [glaivekiyo incident](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/s/Xt4yqdwqNm) happened in the first place, someone out there probably will lol
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:34
Most people who complain about it are just people wanting to grab attention by hating on the game. I only recently found out that Glaive had a bias against genshin (not that I watched him, I never did).
I always get videos from people (some even with genshin pfps!) trying to compare genshin to wuwa and claim that wuwa absolutely smashes genshin and therefore genshin bad. It's quite tiring because I legitimately do not care about whether the other game has 100x better graphics or animations if it's not for me, and even then it doesn't make it a bad game. I legitimately do not mind wuwa's existence and I really hope the game competing with genshin creates a better environment for both games, but some of the creators that claim to be unbiased ruin it for both by pointlessly comparing two games that have two wildly different trajectories in terms of their projects.
HopelessRat2026-01-08 10:00
they're doing it to farm engagement? no way. i can't believe this. You're telling me they don't actually care about giving constructive criticsm? I dont believe you hoyoshills
KRen_7252026-01-08 08:29
You know you can only use the skin by playing the traveler or you don't see the skin... completely absurd
leopoldshark2026-01-08 08:31
Missed opportunity to go back to Ayaka and ask her to have Oguri Mio make a new outfit for us
I instantly knew the reference lmao. This kind of posts were trending a few weeks/months ago too.
everyIittlething2026-01-08 09:20
i’m out of the loop and idk who dis glaveikyo is, but were they for real with that comment?
corecenite2026-01-08 09:27
yes, they were since they are a genshin hater cc
Stormento2026-01-08 09:41
More like Ai slop maker. Doesn't really deserve to be called a cc since content creation requires some amount of talent for making content. All his video scripts are 90% ai generated.

I have these clowns on "don't recommend me" so i didnt get the reference at first
TheUnfairLife2026-01-08 08:36
well at least you still can switch the MC right? right...?
AlaindeshoGT2026-01-08 08:38
Aether outfit is kind of cool now, too formal for my taste, but Lumine's just fire
Like omg, is she even my sister? I don't think so
skeleton_leaf2026-01-08 08:42
The fact that this is getting downvoted is hilarious
RaineMurasaki2026-01-08 08:53
I know is a joke, but... That is what how was in the past before the DLCs and microtransactions were invented. You know. Play the game and unlock things by playing. So, yes, I like it.
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 08:57
Pretty sure that's the sentiment for most people. Especially those who can't afford to spend
AlterWanabee2026-01-08 09:37
I remember when rare classes or weapons are locked behind days (honestly months) of grinding.
Comfortable-Use5362026-01-08 08:53
Better than gacha... Or purchase

RoachIsCrying2026-01-08 09:09
GOOD! as alot of unlockables should be, play the game, finish quests and get your just reward
andrewlikereddit2026-01-08 09:10
Ok mihoyo, we also need that sumeru costume. Make it happen.
Crimdarath2026-01-08 09:11
I know this wasn't intended to be serious, but unironically my reaction is fairly... unenthused.
I'm only in Sumeru atm, so lord knows if/when I'll ever get to the point where I actually see these.
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 09:13
Don't rush the quests, and take your time, because rushing the game would only make it less exciting. There's lots of fun stuff coming up, especially in Fontaine
corecenite2026-01-08 09:28
it's fine. they probably did it for the lore anyway.
RubApprehensive25122026-01-08 09:13
WOULD YOU RATHER IT BE A PAID SKIN?
UltraPhoenix952026-01-08 09:19

Would you like me to modify the summary that I have provided?
Tiny_Imagination_3282026-01-08 09:14
It's absolutely trash yep, "GENSHIN IS DEAD". GENSHIN WILL "EOS". How can they expect us to play the game?? Devs don't care about the game. "GENSHIN COULD NEVER" 😡
cyansusg2026-01-08 09:14
They also locked primogems behind “quests” and “events”🤦♂️ ridiculous.
tealfaery2026-01-08 09:15
I know this is a joke but omg I’m happy it’s behind an archon quest and not an event. I was stressing thinking id have to rush in order to get it since I still haven’t even hit Natlan yet but now I know I can take my time
ThePhoneExpertYT2026-01-08 09:19
I am still kinda upset about them making stuff like the festering desire and the skins time limited. I remember having college or not being able to play during that time that led me to miss those.
Zanely16332026-01-08 09:17
I get the reference!!!! 😂
I'm sure there is a goomba fallacy somewhere in what I say here, but it is weird seeing people complain about Genshin being a gacha (they wish Genshin is a one-off standalone game so that they can get characters by progressing through the story) and then complaining about some freebies you can get by progressing through the story.
nowlz142026-01-08 09:19
Can't believe they're also locking main story progression behind Archon Quests...
kokko6932026-01-08 09:19

Yes? As is everything else, hence "main".
Difergion2026-01-08 09:30
Literally unplayable, I demand apologems from John Hoyo 🥀
rinuskoe2026-01-08 09:30
i don't like it. why should i spend hours to do the story quest just for an outfit? couldn't they make it claimable directly? not bullshit like tempering thyself where i have to still do commissions for it.
i shouldn't be forced to *gasp* PLAY this game to get rewards.
NapalmDesu2026-01-08 09:31

Relevant_Milk62752026-01-08 09:33

glad they did, ive got 3 more entire story acts to look forward to then i get a cool new fit! Count me in, this should be done more imo

Some random player: "Put it in the shop!"

SO YOU'RE SAYING I HAVE TO ACTUALLY PLAY THE GAME AND FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE STORY BEFORE I CAN CLAIM IT?
THAT'S FUCKED UP!!

Kinda sad cuz I’m like 4 versions behind in the main story so I probably won’t see these for a while, if ever.
Especially if I wanna do the moon maiden weekly thing
mark_crazeer2026-01-08 09:49
Yes? Did you want them to be paid? Event exclusive, locked in a chest where the ship crashed? This is a very valid situation.
ElegantDiamont2026-01-08 09:50
Ong yall are so unbearable...
Its a free skin that looks good and you just have to play the game 🙏
If it would have been for money yall also would have cried
Bunnnnii2026-01-08 09:51
I mean, we have to play through the archon quests to advance the game regardless. It’s not like they put it behind something optional like Abyss 12 or whatever. It’s the one thing that we have to do anyway.
It’s annoying that I still don’t have a fucking skip button, but this here isn’t an issue.

These games only reward you for engaging with their contents are being unrealistic! Why can't they just give the outfit to us for free even if we log in once every 8 months for 5 minutes?
