i mean vill V has been in the lead for a long time when it came to QUA content. this one powercreep doesnt bother me. its not like vill v was released last patch and then boom we got sparkle
This is what Powercreep feels like. Kinda why I left the game honestly, just became more and more less free 2 play friendly. And got more and more powercreepy each update. There's an underlying why with punishing gray raven it's still f2p friendly by still being able to utilize older units.
The part less F2p friendly kinda wrong, the gacha in part 2 basically 100% cheaper than the total pull of part 1 s rank character. Team wise part 2 may powercreep part 1 but, part 2 will less likely powercreeping each other, for example helia still reliable in most of WS astral ring while Coralie still works in many astral ring team if you an F2p. Another example vita while she's giving a breach, sena still the best support in terms of play style and number of buff. "But they always releasing s rank every patch" Let me tell you something. Are they necessary to pull?? Lantern: mid damage, not a flexible support Theresa: only good on her own team (WS, Qua) If you skip both of them and combined it, you most likely able & guaranteed to pull 1 s rank char and full gear (2 if you are really lucky like in the most cases). And most of the cases recently, many accounts accidentally got s rank character and able to pull the gear, and able to save crystal and cycle repeat again (accidental pull>getting gear>able to save many crystal) Another example of powercreeping is on AG, they currently releasing an s rank character every patch, most of the <2.0 character except Hades, Skadi &Thor doesn't really good compared to recent dps performance. And each element already have each own support like oneiroi, Sekhmet, hera, lingguang. But the current update of AG proof that the recent character (2.x-3.x) will most like less power creeping to each other. The same cases goes to Hi3 with part 2 char will less likely powercreeping to each other and I guarantee until the future patch of 10.x. I still can mention the powercreeping trend in other gacha games, but it'll be long list. And PGR compare to other gacha games revenue, earn a bit less but still ok for a standard
@@Yssring_Leavtruth The amount of copium I am seeing in this comment trying to justify Hoyo or rather Hi3rd itself. The game isnt free 2 play friendly my guy no matter hpw you look at it. Doesnt matter if they are part 1 or part 2 characters, point is that new characters are always powrcreeping in this game. You've never probably been able to take into the fact that the new units these days are completely useless without their signature gear, only like a handful can work without it but they wont get you minimum Triple S ranking in the scoreboard if you want those Crystal currencies. New enemies and bosses are also tailored for newer characters while also including some of the older bosses requiring having a faster clear and a faster kill time with newer units ans teams. Yes it is required to get newer units, because without it these dated and old ones cant even get S rank rating let alone get to be part of the top leader board. This game aint any different with its stupid powercreep meta with other gacha games. But more importantly this is Hoyo, they've been in this powercreep meta route for a while now and still deprrssing to see it is still like this. Punishing gray raven is different as not only its more gacha banner friendly, but its easier to get into the top ranking even when using some other dated units. Powercreeping exists, but you arent always required to get that unit as most of the time you can still clear it with other dated units. And the gear is easier to get and less of a hassle and you dont even need the signature weapon most of the time Difference between this game and hi3rd is skill. You can still clear it with dated units with skill and ofc good gear. Unlike hi3rd that soley relies on signature gear and brain dead your way to top ranking the top of crap you cant do with dated and old units in hi3rd.
@@Yssring_Leavtruth Had hoyo actually released decent A rank units farmable or not, from dps to support that can be on par with newer S rank units. Would be the only time I'd say the game can be free 2 play friendly as in thos situtation you can sti be in part of top ranking and get high amounts of crystal currency. Or had hoyo made a much easier way to obtain crystals as a free 2 play. The game is not f2p friendly, and I think you are refusing to believe it is.
I'm mentoring a new player who hasn't spent a dime on what to prioritize and they have every single p2 character (skipping a weapon here or there). They managed to reach Red Lotus so I can confidently say the game respects F2P players.
I'm close to getting it, after all, it's the first costume for part 2 and although I said I wouldn't go for more costumes, this costume won me over anyway.
I also spent a lot of crystals to get the Helia weapon but I don't regret anything since it helps me a lot despite not being at my maximum, staying longer in Red Lotus than with the characters in section 1, so I'm glad that at least Those who are new or who did not get it do it, and this will also help to improve the level of the weapon.
the mistake is the path system itself lol hahaha assigning paths a role was too restrictive. unlike in genshin where weapon type really doesn't dictate what role the characters would have. look at what happened to erudition and hunt before. they were totally overshadowed by destruction units. they also made destruction too skewed IMO. destruction should be like yunli and clara. a balance between being tanky and being offensive. and there was blade is just plain tanky with no supports aiding him(RIP dps blade). and there's acheron like come on shes no nihility. she's not even inflicting any debuff just marking them. she's plain erudition. and topaz. tho topaz does dish out sustained dps with her frequent fua... she still feels like more nihility than acheron herself. then lingsha yeah she can heal but her damage is arguably on par with SAM. and huohuo... she's straight up a harmony unit with like her LC is the only thing that makes her look more of a sustain unit with the passive heals every time someone ults. i mean you would rarely use her skill unless you want to cleanse someone. especially if she's with yunli who can heal herself as well. put tingyun in the team and yunli will ult non stop and huohuo's lc will heal non stop as well. but yeah the paths have become restrictive overtime coz well with hunt it clearly states single target dps... there's only little you can do with that
Nah, having too much freedom leads to all sorts of mess, too. You could also argue that a lot of stuff in Genshin was ultimately invalidated by Hyperbloom.
@@Grayewicked hyperbloom is restrictive coz you have to play specific elements and reactions. what do you mean there's freedom in that? why use a vape team when you can use hyperbloom? same as why go abundance when preservation exists. your arguments arent lining up. how is being locked to playing hyperbloom gives you too much freedom?? heck hyperbloom forced you to only play hyperbloom wth are you talking about freedom then
A cosplayer who is a vtuber who react to max vids (yuikai) reply under the tweet while cosplaying as the character and all ppl including max goes awooga its so intetesting
