      ​@@Crispymantis123 Because you're hoping Genshin will improve when in fact the devs don't give a fuck about their community and player base.
      Look at everything Genshin did before and after WuWa released, they increased the resin cap to 200 but didn't reduce the waiting time, the condensed one cap is still at 5 and added another endgame mode which sucked ass.
      With version 5, they could've had a real chance to bring back players but they fumbled.
      5* standard character selector, useless. How many players from version 1 already have the C6 of those characters?
      Artifact transmuter system, disgusting. It lets you get one sanctifying elixir and one piece of a whole set of an artifact set, with sub-stats that will still roll like ass. If anything, they should have made it so you can set the whole stats, both main and the 4 sub-stats, of an entire artifact set then it would warrant the 41 days cooldown which I still see as a joke.

      Clearly people wanted movement tech. But when the game was never designed with it in mind from the beginning, the best you can do is tack it on by adding new characters and environment based movement tech. Genshin didn't have any major improvements in movement for a whole year after release until Inazuma, which added the janky orb transfer things as well as Sayu, the first character with good horizontal mobility. They have continued that design philosophy to natlan, and will continue to do so in the future.

    • @saintontas
      @saintontas  2 месяца назад +57

      I think that'd be good to bring up if there were actually any bodies of water large enough to be an obstacle. The only one in the game is at the black shores but you're given a surfboard minigame that's far faster than shorekeeper's butterfly anyways.
      Kuro would have to purposefully add annoying areas with water for her butterfly form to really feel significant, but like I said, they're devs that focus on making a good gameplay experience instead of an incentive to spend.
      I honestly don't really use her butterfly form that often since it feels a little weird on the controls, has a collection radius so small you can just walk right past things, and consumes a boatload of stamina. I'd actually rather prefer manually picking things up and using inferno rider instead if I need to go places.

    I honestly don't understand some of the arguments that some people use to claim that Wuwa's exploration is less appealing than Genshin's:
    "The wallrunning removes the sense of accomplishment from climbing to high places"
    How does sluggishly climbing a mountain while stopping to regain your stamina every few minutes give you a "sense of accomplishment"? Is it supposed to be from having your patience tested instead of your skill or game knowledge? Because that doesn't sound very fun.
    Plus, if it really means that much to you, you could just...not wallrun? You're not forced to wallrun every time you start climbing.
    "Since every character can use every exploration ability, no one feels special"
    When the base exploration features feel so smooth, fluid, and convenient to use, how is that a bad thing? It just means you're free to explore the entire world with just your favorites instead of feeling like you're gimping your mobility if you don't swap your party around to characters more dedicated to traversal.

These games doesn’t compare anywhere to Witcher 3, r2d2, cyberpunk, rebirth persona etc. it’s not even close. You guys are literally comparing trash predatory gacha vs trash predatory gacha. Grow up and realize both are shit.

      I play both games, but Wuwa just doesn't seem to cut it. As much as I appreciate their attention to small things, the overall experience is not that great, and the main fault is the combat experience. Aimed shooting is just not a viable way to play it. And as much as they put their attention to the freerunning in this game, the less they attend to the actual world you explore. It feels like a decoration with no interaction between its elements. Hit the tree in Genshin - an apple will fall down, and the hilichurl will go to investigate what happened. Do the same in Wuwa - it isn't even there.

    I played genshin religiously for 2/3 years, and when sumeru came out I was soooooo bored of it. The exploration completely took me out of the game, bc that map was MASSIVE. It felt like a chore opening the game. Now I legitimately have so much joy opening wuwa, building my characters without suffering and exploring the map is so gratifying. What you said is key: Kuro respects our time. And it's much appreciated. I'm not a spender in gacha games, but I WANT to in wuwa. I buy the monthly pass, and maybe eventually even the battle pass.

    I've been playing both games and I can say that the implementations of the QOL in Wuthering Waves when it comes to exploration in my opinion is better compared to Genshin.
    First of all Wuthering Waves treasure finder is easier to get and IS not LIMITED to a certain region, and the fact that it shows almost all the treasure in a specific area is absolutely amazing. I absolutely hated it when I found out that the treasure compasses in Genshin are locked behind a reputation standing and only has a limited weekly way to earn experience.
    They even added a gun gadget so that you won't have to add a gun character in your party. It makes exploration and 100% area easier. And as someone that is kind of lazy, even collecting flowers for ascending your character is easier since it shows you in the map to collect, in comparison to Genshin it just shows you a big circle and correct me if I'm wrong still needs a character so that it shows a specific type of flower / plants.
    In such a short amount of time, they already added so many QOL and I am hoping that there would be more to make the gaming experience so much better.

    I remember in the first 4 months, Genshin finally added Dragonspine, then it took months to add Golden Apple Archipelago before Inazuma release, and even then, that area was limited.
    Meanwhile, Kuro added 2 place to explore within 4 months. Heck, there's a leak that there will be a new region to explore when Camellya is playable.
    So ... imagine paying for better exploration experience, when there aren't that many new regions to explore in the long run ... Talk about "Genshin could never"

    4:20 And even these characters like the new Natlan characters/mechanics all have a way too short duration and way too long CDs on these skills/functions anyway and you still have to constantly manage your stamina all the time. Hoyo seems like they're constantly afraid to give players anything that would make them have too much fun while exploring. Coming from WuWa back to Genshin, exploration there feels absolutely terrible - even with the new Natlan characters & mechanics - which is a shitty practice cuz it's so limited anyways. So yeah, the title of this video is 100% true!

    @wildcrown340 2 месяца назад +5

    Something I find curious and funny is the inclusion of exploration mechanics for new characters in WuWa. Like, the exploration is so good at base that you don't really need a limited character to move quickly in the game. What's more, the base movement of each character (except the child characters like Verina, Encore and soon Youhu. Sad for them) it's already so good that most of times I don't use the Rider of my Changli just because, again, I don't really need it and actually I feel less control with the Rider than with my character.

    A common saying that I hear as a counter to poor exploration mechanics is that it's destination that matters and not the journey or vice-versa.
    Tbh, though, BOTH matter. If it's too painful and/or slow, a person might quit the game before they ever reach the destination. On the other hand, if the area the player is exploring feels boring and unfufilling to their standards, they may feel they wasted their time and quit.
    I feel like wuwa does a good job in both areas, wall-running, double jumping, infinite sprinting, and echoes may seem like small additions, but they just make exploration feel more smooth and fun overall. As for the destination, the landmarks in wuwa are look amazing, my favorite is the data torrent. Not saying that exploration in wuwa is perfect, after all, there's always room for improvement in both aspects.

    As Genshin player since 1.0 and PGR and Wuwa
    WW Exploration is quicker, better, fighting boss and killing mob is very enjoyable, the quest can be done faster due to skip button...the down side for this is sometimes I don't remember a lot of NPC or Important character, detail or lore [Even if I find detail on Google or RUclips it is still lacking or missed a some information]
    GI Exploration is slower but more diverse due to how unique every nation is, Natlan exploration is a bit faster than WW due to Saurian but other nation is a lot slower even though some part of the map has special method or gadget in the area, GI don't have Skip button which make things a lot more slower, really slower [It makes doing quest so boring, the good thing about it is that I have been force to read the story, So, even if I skip I still remember some detail]
    I didn't agree with GI copy exploration from WW because Hoyo already plan this for sometimes now, Every Nation has it's own unique gameplay but this unique gameplay also limit to it's own nation and it makes things more memorable [I can't remember most of the area from WW, even town and city unlike GI]

    You know what would be nice tho? If we actually had a map to explore in Wuwa. The map updates have been so small... 1.0 took about 1 week to 100%. Mt Firnament took about 3 days and Black Shores took barely 2 days. We need more gameplay time. Exploration time is also immensely lowered bcs of how super broken the Lootmapper is, which is both a positive and negative. I have more fun moving around in Wuwa compared to Genshin prior to 4.0, but Genshin is more fun to actually explore and do all the hidden lore quests. After 4.0 its a different story, Diving is just spectacular, but its true that exploration feels much slower than in Wuwa. Isnt that what exploration means in the first place? You dont really explore in Wuwa, you just follow the 20 chests marked on your minimap, since Lootmapper will mark 99% of obtainable chests within a mile. And this creates a bigger problem, exploration is over very quickly and you dont spend enough time killing mobs while doing it (also dailies not requiring you to kill anything or go anywhere other than domain/boss), which always leaves you with 0 resources to upgrade, unless you go out of your way to boringly farm all the mobs in the map every week. The Devs realize that their upgrade costs are insane and gave us 2m coins + 90 5star mats for free in the newest event. Thats equivalent to 10h+ of grinding and 960 energy, which is an insane amount of free rewards, all because they realized they fucked up with their drop rates and costs. They need to fix this issue in the long run, bcs I doubt they will keep giving us so many freebies forever. Id much rather wait 3 days or join a friend's world to gather half of the ascension mats I need, rather than be forced to farm coins with energy at least 1 whole day per week and also possibly do some mob grinding in the weekend. Alas, its just the direction they want to take, make the game fast to get over with so people with 5sec attention span dont complain, make the story meh and just skip it all with 1 button. It makes for a good combat game, which it definitely is, but you cant help but feel worried about the future of the game.

    I think my main reason why I have more fun exploring in Wuwa is because of the team switching. Like, I always dreaded finding those elemental totems in Genshin, because chances were that I didn’t have any character of that element in the team. Then I would have to switch more because the current team doesn’t have X character that can teleport/fly/jump or something. And again, teams in Genshin need team synergy depending on the character you want to play.
    Meanwhile, I never switch my Rover out in Wuwa and I only ever change my main team if I want to. Climb something high? Grapple. Shoot something? The new gadget. And that’s it, no need to get a whole different team to open 1 chest. Can play 3 dps too if you know how to dodge, and the teleports heal now, so why healers if you can bonk, dodge and grapple??
