Seriously, what is happening with Enfield? I mean in social media it’s getting millions and millions of views, while here it’s getting 6 mil revenue? Even if we say 70% revenue comes from pc and console, the total would still be only 10 mil

Is it ever going to surpass original arknights?

No pressure to pull.

I'm a Day 1 player, enjoy the game, but still F2P. Unlike the Hoyo games, there's no endgame that makes you feel you have to pull for new units. I didn't pull the supposed "main push" character, and didn't feel like I was left out of content for skipping.

If you do look at what the Hoyo games offer and income patterns, power sells. Endfield doesn't have that, and even though it doesn't help with revenue pvp, it's nice as a player who isn't too interested in the meta talk, constant shilling, etc. of the Hoyo games. I still enjoy Genshin and ZZZ, but I will admit the endgame content of those games are their least enjoyable aspects for me, even if I full clear them.

Achievement stats suggests very small percentage of players ever beat floor 12: https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/1ufgopm/how_many_players_are_actually_full_clearing_abyss/

Which may imply not as many ppl are pulling for meta as we assume.

The "strongest character of the region" factor is probably still in play for even those who don't fully clear. Even if a player isn't fully clearing endgame stuff, it's still easier for a casual player to spend on a unit everyone mentions as very strong, must-pull, etc. The spikes in revenue when such characters come out are massive, so it really can't be all just from the endgame clearing players.

Some feel it's important to make the distinction between whether you pull for a unit because you feel it's meta or you truly love the design etc. The perennial waifu vs meta argument.
