This game is not as bad as my siblings (player gi) said to me. But it requires a smartphone with a snapdragon chipset to play. There is no battery meter. It takes a lot of battery and internet data.
Gacha rate is different for character and light cone (weapon) banners. But still it depends on luck. Hard pity said 90, but still not guarantee to get a gold one (5 star). I always hit hard pity (90 pulls) and failed first (rate on). That means I need to choose one character only. Leaks are helpful but not always accurate (for example, it is predicted Xueyi release in 1.4 but guinaifen).
Spend money is not wise. My account got unlucky after purchase battle pass and express supply pass. Saving jades and still not certain. I failed yet again.
This is suck. Devs make new characters always overpower. So many simps or sales reps will overhype their fav character. Only to be shut up by devs cause new characters means new meta change. It is horrible. Trap in the FOMO and being meta slave kinda suck but hoyoverse love it.
The worst part is the twitch drop event. People say first come first serve. But I don't think that's the case. Twitch has issue with views and subs botting. That is why hsr event are actually easy to manipulated. The one who wins and take a rewards are shady people who use bots. Rn I don't think to spend money anymore. I don't want to support this game.
After clear a hidden quests. Reach level 67. There is nothing I wanna do. Only spend 5-10 minutes. Nothing fun. Thanks to hsr devs who ruin the game. So unbalance. Erudition path seems weak than destruction path. So why must I buy into the hype for character that is not follow destruction path. If jing yuan and himeko gets weak, then why must gacha for re run seele. She already get powercreep by dan heng il. Soon dragon man will also get the same thing. Kinda sick with this cycle.
