HSR only hitting 7 digits....

Genshin definitely has the higher floor when even fuckass Mizuki still got them in the 20+ millionsđŸ˜­

That comparison is a bit debatable. Mizuki was still a new character.

In HSR right now we've got no new characters for 5ish weeks in a game where reruns have lower value. It's also right before 4.0, and if anyone is going to spend money it's going to be during 4.0 and not during this content drought.

I remember Arlecchino/Zhongli still making 20M

For context, HSR's floor is usually about 19 million+ when a character is niche, or is badly placed, or is a character that few people want to have too many copies of. Non Hyacine Healers for example tend to sell worse than dps or supports.

But it's also because HSR doesn't reward people for investing heavily in rerun banners. We're also right before a major new version so people are also saving/leaving/taking a break/ waiting to see what new teams for the new path will look like.

It's a bit difficult to make Genshin v HSR comparisons here because older characters have MUCH lower value in HSR than they do in Genshin.

TBF it's Arle/Zhongli, both are still well-performing units with goodish value, Arle's still the top 2 pyro DPS who can solo contents and Zhongli still no sells anything that's not a rifthound. They're good pulls if you don't have them.
