@Renegade_Prime86 I've done nothing but play Genshin for the past 4 days. If you liked BoTW you're going to love Genshin. The environments are absolutely gorgeous, the quest line is actually enjoyable, and the characters are unique and interesting. Combat is fluid and responsive, though without proper gear the enemies feel a little spongey, and there's a solid amount of depth to be had in terms of elemental combos and party set-ups.
Only real criticisms I can muster are minor things, the end-game loop seems repetitive but that's to be expected of a gacha style game, certain mechanics are clunky in implementation but aren't often used so it's passable, there's a lot of visual eye candy so you're better off playing on a dedicated gaming PC rather than your phone, the recharging energy system does slow your progress somewhat but it seems to recharge quickly so it's not terrible, co-op at the moment is kind of wonky in terms of what you and your partner can actually do, and if you're grinding for common materials you're going to be wandering about aimlessly a lot.
10/10, wonderful. You'll see a lot of people re-roll for Diluc, an SS tier DPS, but you don't 100% have to. My advice is that if you are going to re-roll, try to get Barbara instead, she's an A tier healer and without her you're going to be relying on food-stuffs way more than normal, and this isn't like BoTW where you can gorge on 30 pancakes in a row, get all your HP back in a nanosecond and then keep going. Everyone's got an upper limit on consumables, so if your characters are too full you can't heal them with food-stuffs until they die, so it's really nice to have Barbara in tow.
