Sooo just a first impression post. It's my first-second day playing, still exploring and unlocking certain game mechanics. Let's start with the Gacha aspect:
There's literally nothing else to explain on the Gacha system as it's the same with other Gacha games, except they're a bit more generous.
🎮 Gameplay: Very good so far. As someone who didn't play Genshin extensively, I can't make a definitive comparison, and I don't want to do that anyway. Combat felt fast-paced and fluid. They made traversing the environment even more fun as well. There's also a lot of fun puzzles and platforming sections.
📖 Storyline: Engaging and intriguing so far. Just not a huge fan of some of the voice acting, specially from the MC (I know the Rover's not supposed to speak at all times anyway, but it just sound odd sometimes).
🕹ī¸ Controls: I mainly play this on PC becau se it's an unoptimized mess on mobile devices. But I just also included a short gameplay with me using my mobile controller with hard-mapped inputs (WW doesn't have native gamepad suppport on mobile, sadly) The touch controls are pretty responsive anyways.
🕹ī¸ Graphics: Amazing on Max settings (on PC at least). It still look good on the highest possible setting on mobile, it's just currently unoptimized so fram rates stutters are pretty common, and sudden change in resolution.
Overall, the game is pretty engaging and generous so far. Exploring is fun, and combat is pretty fluid. I can definitely see myself playing this long term.

They give a lot of gacha currency, thats true, but the rates are far from what I would call good. You only have a 1.8% chance of getting a 5★ character. Thats insanely low! A GOOD rate for 5★/SSR characters should be, at the very least, 5%. I agree with the rest of your post though. âœĻ.âœĻ

Right I totally agree with the rates, and what I mean by it's pretty much the same as other gacha system is the 5-star pity system, and they're pretty straightforward about it, on top of them being generous. I'm on my 5th day now with continuous progress and it's been a blast so far, specially when you're familiar with all the gacha game aspects and progression/upgrades and farming, because it can get quite overwhelming if a player is new to it.

4.4/5 Nice try mihoyo. Really addicted to this game. Really! Excellent graphics, impressive storyline going through either by the main story or the NPCs, largest and beautiful map on mobile game, unstoppable exploration in each unique district...... many more I wanted to say, but it just too much. The only drawbacks while playing this game is the poor 60 fps on phone by default support, not really an ideal game for those who have low ended compatibility phones. Gachas is just the same as other games, not much to say in this so-called 'top-up' gaming era nowadays, so just call it aside. Focusing at the gameplay itself is massively interesting, it definitely worth you to play for months to just explore one part of the map. For good sake, strongly recommended for those who really like animes as genshin is definitely acquired you taste; those who like RPG, give it a kick on it; those who want to play opened world game with reasonable graphic (not fps) using low ended devices, download it now! One of the most exciting game ever introduced. One of the greatest game of the 20s era!

If you are thinking about downloading this because it boasts open world exploration and adventure, boy be ready for disappointment. This game is stage based combat with no open world at all. Finish one combat stage and head back to the main hub, repeat over and over. Longest tutorial of any game I've played as well, took damn near 30 minutes before it would let me do anything besides what it wanted to do. No setting menu, so you can't change anything. The gacha component is priced steep as far as resources, so you are gunna have to grind. The combat is fine, although the character you start with uses twin pistols and yet her combat is primarily melee based which makes zero sense. The graphics are good, but that's about all it's got going for it. They took all the best things about Genshin, binned them and made this. I feel like they nailed the target with genshin in a lot of ways, then they started making this game, saw that target, turned 180 degrees away from it to make sure they don't hit it and fired their shot into the ground just to be sure.

Initial impressions of this game: it's pretty decent. The gameplay is fast paced and addicting. It's similar to PGR, but with some different mechanics. 👍 Pros: The sound design and music is good, makes the gameplay more engaging. Voice acting (in English at least) is just OK. I appreciate the effort but nothing special. I like how the level up mechanics are similar to the source material. 👎 Cons: The story does not take its time. They really want to get you into the action and teach you all the mechanics.  Some people may like that, but for me, it breaks the immersion. A lot of exposition to explain story beats rather than taking the time to show you. The pacing is too fast.
