Sometimes I think being an f2p is the best.

Maybe I am stingy with money but being f2p feels freedom cause you can literally quit the game and don't feel you have wasted money. You can come back anytime and your efforts is all you have without the financial loss.

Also as f2p you only pull your must haves, your biggest favourites, since u have fewer characters you can fully dedicate building them and using them for time that is wroth the effort.

I seriously think having not more than 3 to 4 characters per year gives quality of life in game way better.

Well this is how I think, its just a personal pov not set in stone.

I don't see how a non F2P player can't quit? It would only be a waste of money if you regret getting the character.

This is some heavy sunk cost fallacy on op's part. I've spent thousands of hours on the game, and even if I spent an equal amount of money (I have not) that would be a dollar per hour of entertainment?? People do way more expensive things for less time investment all the time.

I like being f2p (except for the occasional welkin moon) because I honestly enjoy saving, and when I get a character I’ve been saving for it’s a lot more rewarding imo. And also buying genesis crystals is such a terrible deal. They’re crazy expensive

if you're enjoying all your time in the game, sure. if you're grinding out primos but not having much fun doing it, you'd be better off swiping (if you can) because money is worth vastly less than time.

Are you trying to convince others or yourself? Everyone has a different comfort zone when it comes to games like this. I do believe it's better to overcome certain barriers by yourself rather than just throwing money at them. But this doesn't put me on any higher ground than people that spend much more than I do (which is just Welkin+BP) and I don't really think about stuff like this just so I feel better with myself. At the end of the game it's just a game.

But the notion that you can only quit the game easly if you ar F2P is quite childish. Not all money you spend in life is an investment. We spend on experiences all the time. Food, theatre tickets etc. Things that don't really leave you with anything real/corporeal after. Genshin is no different. If you spent money on it you already experienced the benefit.

idk, to me this feels obvious. The struggle and the personal connection to **your** team is what makes it fun. Imo being a whale is like downloading a max level party in an RPG and just steamrolling

There's tons of games I bought and didn't get even a day's worth of entertainment out of them. I won't force myself to play it just to feel like it was worth the cost, just how I wouldn't force myself to play Genshin just because I spent some money. It's stupid to even consider

Folks don't spend money on Genshin like it's some kind of investment to cash in on later. They spend money on it because it's a hobby.

People spend money to watch movies. That money is never coming back to them. But if they enjoy watching movies, it's not money that they regret spending.

Folks might regret it if they spend money on a character and then decide they don't like the character. But then, folks might spend money to watch a movie and then find out that the movie sucked.
