Popularity chart of gacha games at an anime con in China as of May 2026.

[u/520mile]

Red dots=like, black dots=dislike.

Covered up games in images 3 & 7 are Snowbreak Honor of Kings & Reverse 1999, respectively.

EDIT: Image 3 is actually Honor of Kings, not Snowbreak. “SB” over HoK’s square means 傻逼(sha bi)=stupid/idiot/dumbass/asshole. Although HoK isn’t a gacha, it’s up there with a few other mobile games that are popular in China.

Honestly, the main WuWa sub Is a massive pendulum, either endless doompost or endless glaze, depending on the time you're posting you'll be downvoted for either praising/enjoying the game or criticizing it. That's why i primarily stick to leak sub or some <insert char name> mains subs since they're generally much more chill.

[u/fast_stillness → u/Commercial_Let2850]

I find the Main sub is tamed as comapred to the wuwaleak sub. They're so much worse

[u/RigenX → u/Commercial_Let2850]

I had the pleasure of experiencing that firsthand a few days ago... Just for mentioning Genshin and criticizing WuWa a bit for how it handles it's story and characters...Never again.

[u/Mihtaren → u/RigenX]

Both games have pretty bad writing to be honest.

[u/corecenite → u/Mihtaren]

here's my two cents at least (i play the quests on autoplay):

in genshin, i stayed awake wide eyed until i reached the first "city".

in wuwa, i already fell asleep before i even reached the first "city".

[u/RigenX → u/Mihtaren]

From my point of view Genshin's story is better. But i will not go hating on some1 thinking otherwise. Tough there were a couple of WuWa zealots throwing at me their toxic waste, which wasn't a pleasant experience... Just because i even dared to mention Genshin(they loved to call it Genshi*)

[u/karillith → u/RigenX]

"G game" X)

[u/1Whyfu → u/RigenX]

genshin story is masterpiece afterall if you dont count the execution (lame af)
Also the recent story is kinda childish, winning against strong smart villain with the power of friendship is reminds me of what i watch on my elementary school.

[u/Ok_Tie_1428 → u/1Whyfu]

I legitimately don't know what you are referencing.

[u/1Whyfu → u/Ok_Tie_1428]

the battle against dottore, its so cringe i cant suffer myself to watch it, especially columbinas line before beating him🫥

[u/kokorean-mafia → u/Commercial_Let2850]

That’s literally the HSR sub in my experience. 

[u/T8-TR → u/Commercial_Let2850]

Sticking to the leaks subs is p much what I do w/ all these games, because they're usually far more reasonable (maybe because there's far less people?) than the main subs.

But yeah, seeing WuWa go from overly doomed to overly praised to overly doomed, etc in a seemingly neverending cycle is lowkey kinda fascinating to me.

[u/War-Inquisitor → u/T8-TR]

I mean leak subs are probably worse, since they're full of people that doompost everything at every possible moment and say things that seem straight out of a husbando/queensof sub.

[u/vahneo → u/War-Inquisitor]

Wuwa Leak sub when it come to gameplay is intolerable with all the doomposting. Actually maybe it's gacha leak sub in geneal all about doomposting.

[u/FishySardines99 → u/War-Inquisitor]

Wuwa leaks sub purged most of people from husbandos and queensof so it's actually chill there. It's not just husbando adjacent sub like other leak subs

[u/Flimsy-Writer60 → u/Commercial_Let2850]

May I recommend r/StillTides?
