For me, it’s actually quite disappointing.
Wuthering Waves has made some useful optimizations based on Genshin Impact. In terms of combat experience, whether it's locking the camera, breaking moves, switching techniques, the controls are smooth in all aspects, meeting Kuro Games' strengths in the basics.
However, beyond that, the feel of the open world, the distant views, dialogues, and camera angles, they are all similar to Genshin Impact (and a bit worse, to be honest). Is your project’s goal just to copy Genshin Impact? Yes, surpassing Genshin Impact is not easy, but Genshin is already at this level. To blatantly copy this openly is quite bold.
Oh, and the map design is lacking. Some places are clearly not meant for exploration. Are the elevators really that fun?
When almost everything besides combat is the same as in Genshin Impact, there’s not much to say. I could point out details one by one. What about the character and weapon gacha banners? Mixed banners, exclusive weapons, balance issues, high grinding requirements and more – but honestly, these topics are all too familiar at this point.
They're either typical of miHoYo, common in anime games, or typical of the "Chinese-style imitation mixed with anime-game" genre. Regarding these "bad practices," opinions could not be more abundant. To be honest, it’s really just Kuro Games’ combat mechanics wrapped in a Genshin Impact-like shell. That's pretty much the gist of the game.
While I hate to admit it, what you said is pretty much spot-on. Oh, wait! Theres two things that comes to mind atm that I would like to point out: 1. When GI first came out, I remember seeing a LOT of bugs in the game. In WW, I havent encountered a single bug so far. 2. The WW devs didnt hold back with the pre-registration and server launch rewards. The players are getting a whole bunch of goodies, including 108 pulls, free 5★ weapons and two guaranteed 5★ characters from the gacha.

I haven't encountered any bugs so far in Wu Wa, though I've seen some feedback from other players mentioning a few. But overall, it doesn't seem to affect the experience much, so I think it's fine. Completely agree on the rewards. HoYo has always been stingy with player rewards, but Kuro's handling of this has been much better.

The first thing that came to my mind was that this game is an occupation Because it is not optimized for mobile I couldn't even watch the first movie of the game It just sounds There was a lot of lag The max graphics were no different from the low graphics And when I used the jump, I realized that one game is not worth it Even Genshin with Max graphics does not lag that much Maybe it will be fixed with an update in the future The jump is still too high, make it shorter👍
