nice leaks. it's funny that they already gave out blue wings to prime gaming cattle

GenshinImpact_uZA9U7N8q0.jpg
 
Fontaine map, wingglider, two new artifact sets and 4* craftable weapons
new glider and craftable weapons were to be expected, new nation new reputation to level etc.

the new BP weapons are a surprise since even if you buy welkin from day 1 you there are still some refinements left for all of them. otoh better too early as too late. the craftables are ok, but given what a pain in the ass it is to get billets... mihoyo really needs to allow people to exchange them for boss drops (even in a higher rate so you at least know you'll get one eventually) or include them in the BP or for events (they did it two times, but then changed it again for some reason).

if they don't do major QOL in 4.0 we can probably expect it to never happen at all...

EDIT: the new sets are not bad, finally a 5* with elemental skill bonus, replacing gambler (the 4pc was always situational) and a general good 2pc set bonus to combine with others.

Well, the Fontaine wings itself actually has different blue shade on each wing. To stay true with Fontaine "schizo" theme, fundamental force Ousia and Pnuema alignment. Both of these are served as an additional attribute in Fontaine character E skill so far.
Because from leaks, it seems to have additional interaction (paralyzed) with Fontaine (special?) mobs if they have opposite alignment to character E skill.
People are kinda skeptical of this specific thing to be more annoying against specific mobs.

Definitely wish they maybe add some QoL overtime with certain filler patches beside event contents.
I don't really know what incentive would make MHY to ease anything related to grinding beside strongboxes and conversion of the same material type.

Strangely enough, there hasn't been any confirmation for more banner runs per patch on which 4.X patch.
For Geo copium, there's probably a rework along with Fontaine Geo unit and Chiori later on.
 
I figured since Eula hasn't had a banner in forever it was a decent time to roll for her. Apparently, the game agreed.

Must've been one hell of a glitch in the matrix...

don't think it will be much different like the fungi stuff and electro/pyro changing drops (which the description kinda fucks up, and pretty much every fucking dendro char needs those unactivated drops for levelups AND talents, guess which I got almost over 1500 and which not..)...

I want a fucking higher resin cap, it's one of the few things tower of fantasy got right. you're logging in every day to do your chores anyway, there's no good reason why do it TWICE, and since buying resin is expensive af and capped anyway, I doubt they make a lot of money this way either.
for artifacts I simply want a better way to get more exp besides running the same 1-2 paths to collect 100 investigation spots - more artifact exp means you can level more and thus can better decide which level 16 you want to dump into another (with 5 possible upgrades even a meh lvl12 can still have some good upgrades at 16 and 20, that's why the whole exp milling is such a fucking pain in the ass).

banners I assume won't get beta tested since there wouldn't be anything to test, maybe if they want to run 3 at once - but there are already 4+ event banners, I assume they'll just shorten the duration and squeeze in a third phase like in 1.1. increases the fomo, but also decreases the interval of re-runs. they might also do it only on special occasions or even second patch or whatever, who knows...

relevant again:
 
There's an event going on and it generates codes for HoYo games. Since I don't play Genshin, I thought I'd share my codes here:

4T9JWBKHRWR5
4T9JWERLWNM5

Good luck to whoever gets them!

If anyone has HSR codes, let me know.

The first one was already used, but I got the second one. But then I generated my own codes, including a Genshin one that I can't redeem, so I'll post them here too.

I tried to message you my HSR code, but it said I can't start a conversation with you.

7TNSHNF9J8HX

I tried to redeem it, but it says that I already redeemed a similar one. I suppose it's a one time thing?
Probably can only redeem one code per game, that's why I couldn't redeem my Genshin code after redeeming yours. That makes it simple though, everyone can just make a code for themselves for whatever games they want.

I don't even see a way to generate codes, do you have to scan it with your phone?

No. Go to the link I posted and I believe you need to hit a giftbox icon. If you don't see it, try "sharing" the event and see if it comes up.
 
What do you know? Honkai CAN give me a character every once in a blue moon. Just had to ignore the game for about 2 months
 
I managed to pull both Eula and her weapon before the banner ended, and in typical Genshin fashion it heard this and has decided to bar me from ever getting a Physical DMG% goblet ever again. Granted, even without a full proper artifact set she's already able to casually drop 50k with her burst at level 70 without food/Bennett/etc. , so I imagine it'll only get goofier when she's actually built.
 
I have won the last three 50/50s in Star Rail so my chances of getting Kafka are now nil. F's in the chat

Do you mean Star rail? Anyway, more like 1.5 months and free 10 pulls for 7 consecutive days login every new patch.

Then you'll probably hate yourself fighting a boss with shield or teleporting away when her burst comes up.

I got Loucha on guarantee, won 75/25 with his cone. Now saving til Fu Xuan, my last copium on her Dehya like tanking kit, seems pretty good so far.
Although, I may stop playing after that since story writing in HSR drops so badly in space China. It was nice Belobog because it was kinda normal JRPG writing, now it's back to what I dislike in Genshin writing.

Not sure I supposed to find this "funny" or "sad" comparing to Genshin, it's nice to have for sure. For Star Rail, couple QoL leaks for trailblazer/resin for patch 1.3.

Trailblazer resin QoL2.png
This basically means you only need to log in exactly 1 time a day, since 240 will be exactly 24 hours fully recharged. (1 power per 6 minutes instead of 8 minutes like Genshin).

Trailblazer resin QoL1.png
This means, if you overcap the trailblazer power, there will be additional trailblazer stored in reserve pool, but slower charged rate.
It's roughly 30 days of not spending to cap the reserve pool.
 
So, legitimate question, does anyone know a way to manage Genshin's file size on the console version? Cause how they managed to get this bloated mess to work on mobile is starting to amaze me - look I'm not finding answers on this anywhere else, I figure the font of autism that is us would be a good bet.

Because holy shit the file bloat on this game is ridiculous...

Unfortunately, no idea here. I imagine that they're at the very least beginning to consider some kind of texture compression much like Warframe was eventually forced to do (I presume they're already using smaller textures/lower poly models on mobile), and I assume they already prune obselete content like maps/audio/resources for past events...at least, it makes sense to me to do so except Genshin is currently 79.3 GB on my machine, being the third largest installed game losing only to GTA V and Halo MCC so I'm suddenly unsure if they're doing that.

In the PC launcher, there's an option to clear downloaded content (no idea if the same option exists somewhere on console). If they're not purging old event data, then essentially doing a reinstall might help recover a few GB. Otherwise, Mihoyo really needs to step up their game and work on a way to efficiency store data since we've still got a few more major regions to go with their associated side areas.
 
Then you'll probably hate yourself fighting a boss with shield or teleporting away when her burst comes up.
It may not be optimal, but I've been running Eula/Ganyu/Fischl/Kokomi so as long as the enemy isn't immune to any of those elements I can deal with them. I did run into the teleporting shit though last time I took Eula in for my weekly Childe abuse.

I really just kinda wanted a break from using Ganyu as my main DPS because while she is ridiculously powerful, her playstyle is also very one note.

Fresh reinstall might be what I have to do - last I checked, games sitting at well over 100GB. I don't think they actually prune anything when they do updates.

Much as I like Genshin, it's going to inevitably hit a point where the Storage Issue might be what get's me out of it. Eh - I'll see what happens when Fontaine launches, and if a reinstall sizes any space...

I don't get to judge, my current team is Dehya/Rosaria,/Kequing/Kokomi keeping these idiots alive. Elemental Good Stuff is always fun, and after dicking around with a Hyperbloom team, I needed something dumb.

The fact that it manages to make Dehya actually not completely terrible is a bonus.
