    The worst thing is most of the recent female characters have been pretty uninteresting personality wise because their looks/typical anime personality archetypes is enough for the gooner market

    The fact that we know capitano was killed off says something about this

    Literally, before Kinich, the last male 5* characters were Neuvillette and Wriothesley... They were released in 4.1... Kinich was released in 5.0
    That's a lot of patches without Male 5* (not counting 4* because those usually don't interest people that much)

    One thing to note is it also depends on how they're spaced. Sumeru had plenty of male characters and Fontaine was male centric at the beginning. So if there's a lot of females on backlog, then they're going to be all together regardless.

    I want more male characters because I'm a male, and enjoying playing as my own gender. Tired of seeing 5000 6 year old girls as my options for playable characters. While I do appreciate Xilonen and Mavuika and their actual adult-woman-builds, I really want to be able to play as a strong man like one of the Eremite soldiers, without having to choose Wriothesly and no one else.

      The way I see it, the company doesn't want to abandon old practices of older 2d gacha games. They don't realize that their audience is more than just coomers now.

    To be fair, modern-day gachas are very different today from what they once were. The company doesn't want to try anything new.

    I laugh whenever I see people shit on the female characters because they're upset there are no male characters. Its like, you dont have to hate on the existing characters because theyre not making male ones.
    On an unrelated note, i suspect a large part of why female characters sell better than male characters is because they give female characters better, non onfield dps, so they just have a longer shelf life

      As a female player there's very few female characters I actually like. Probably around 10 I'd say. The rest I'll either somewhat enjoy their personality but dislike their design or love their design yet can't stand their personality. Or just not like the character entirely. HSR is a different story. There's lots of female characters I love in that game as well as the males.

    Meanwhile ZZZ players: you get male characters?
    (Ok, to be fair, most ZZZ players don’t care bout male characters 😓)

    im going to say this and i know its going to be rather unpopular, lets break down the limited male 5* characters by release.
    1.x - Diluc(1.0), venti(1.0), tartaglia(1.1), zhongl(1.1)i, albedo(1.2), xiao(1.3) and kazuha(1.6) (unlike the rest of the patches 1.x covers 2 regions mondstad and liyue)
    2.x - itto (2.3), ayato(2.6)
    3.x- tighnari(3.0), cyno(3.1), wanderer(3.3), alhaitham(3.4) and baizhu(3.6)
    4.x- lyney(4.0), neuvillette(4.1) and wriothesley(4.1)
    5.x- kinich(5.0)
    would i like there to be more male characters, well yes but i know that female characters sell better to the main target demographic of action gatch games. at current were just coming up to the half way point on 5.x so there still time for them todrop in the 2 or 3 male characters like the last 2 patches.

      Maybe because all of those males look like losers to the public. Just add a chad like Loki from One piece and have him do bad ass stuff. Properly build his character, but wait, that takes too much effort.

    To be honest Female Character sell more than male Character because Majority of the genshin players are men and few females so still
    As a Waifu based player I need more male character

      Really? I have a lot of female friends though who play genshin impact. For us women we pull for whose aesthetics really interests us and the character interaction. It doesn’t matter really if it’s either a man or a woman, i have a friend who splurged on Raiden Shogun because she really likes how she looks. It’s not like Genshin needs to lessen its female characters but they should really release male characters equal to the number of female characters they release.

    the simple answer, female characters sell more. It’s a gacha company what are you expecting?? The way the gacha system is designed is to rake as much money out of your wallets
