I'll say it a thousand times over: For an entirely free game where paying for anything is entirely optional, Genshin Impact has not only shed its 'bad' reputation, but it's skyrocketed past any expectation I ever had for it. For something entirely free, the story-line, the depth of it and its characters, its gameplay (honestly, I always tire of repetitive combat, and it's been a year and I still LOVE its combat), its nuances, HOW GORGEOUS IT IS?? Have you seen Chenyu Vale? It's incredible. I will never give it any less credit than that. It has its flaws, of course, but as someone who's played MMORPGs and MOBAs for as long as I can remember that I've sunk so much money into: Genshin Impact is very impressive.
