It's a loss even wuwa fans can't get mad at. Getting number 2 is a first and 46 million is like... A lotta cash for what the game is usually earning, even for the hype sentinel resonator patches
Its a bittersweet victory for wuwa fans Ill be real. Yeah its great vindication seeing our fave game so close to the top, because over the past year the rise in production quality has been clearly met with a rise in market response and revenue, steadily climbing the charts since 2.0.
But by the same token its impossible to ignore how the game is being far more aggressively monetized - fucking bike skins for 25 bucks, a spending event in 3.1, the stat rerollers players had been begging for now a limited premium item available mostly for big spenders... new "weekly" pass on top of the BP and monthly Lunite pass... The price to pay for popularity and success is that devs will inevitably crank up the overt monetization of the game. At this point, ZZZ feels less exploitative and more F2P friendly than Wuwa to me.
Yes, it hasnt changed, thats the problem. ZZZ has gone to further lengths to make the game f2p friendly by buffing and changing the way standard characters work, along with popular agents from the 1.x era like Ellen, Sanby and Jane. I dont see Kuro patching Lingyang or Calcharo, or even Yinlin who feels terrible to play. ZZZ also gifted Zhao, when was the last time Wuwa gifted a brand new limited banner character? Xiangliyao?
I love Wuwa and its my current fave gacha but ZZZ has done way more lately for the players than Wuwa has.
Wuwa has never been f2p unfriendly lol what? Just because some standard banner release chars are bad doesn't mean the game isn't f2p friendly. Lower hard pity, more pulls per patch, guaranteed weapon banner, being able to share weapons in ToA, etc. Who cares if Calcharo and Lingyang are bad? Are you gonna try and tell me every single character in ZZZ is good? Completely pointless statement lol. And 1.x characters like Yinlin literally do have a buff in the newest endgame which is the only place they'd actually need one to perform well. Also what does giving a free 5 star away recently have to do with being f2p friendly or not? By this logic HSR is more f2p friendly than wuwa since they gave out a 5 star selector recently? Lmao. You're literally calling wuwa exploitive because of BIKE skins (completely cosmetic lmao?) a spending event that barely gives shit and is ALSO mostly cosmetic, substat rerollers that are only for pure min maxing purposes and dont even guarantee u get anything good, and a weekly lunite. Be serious.
Anyone who say wuwa is f2p friendly are just bs lol. Character + sig weapon = 240 pulls compared to genshin of 180 pulls for a character and useful 4* weapon
Nah, you can get selectable standard 5* weapons using free standard pulls in Wuwa, thats a false equivalency. Also Genshin’s pull economy per patch is terrible lol, its not even remotely comparable. xD ZZZ does a far better job.
nah i'd bet wuwa has way more pc players than genshin, theres no reason to play genshin on pc bc it still looks crappy just like on a phone! wuwa is gorgeous on pc.
Also it's when wuwa made family focus story instead of goners story, their loud minority goners can't be happy because now they realise their fav dating sim slop the one holding back the game lol
Yes, and if they keep doing this, players and attention seeking CCs gets filtered out and now what's mostly left are the chill type of players, the target audience you want if you want your billion dollar game to thrive beyond needing to sell sex for the sake of selling
I've tried, potato phone can't take it, cloud clogged, forget, back in the last day of Aemeth banner with my account rekt a new one, can't get her, leave one more time
