So less game time again, also what's the point of not utilizing open world for Genshin. That's a difference in feature, not strength How is that a plus?Īnother advantage of not having the element of open world at play. you serious? You wouldn't criticize Mongolian soldiers under Genghis to not have cellphones wouldn't you?įaster to do daily quest, so even less game time than Genshin. Portable crafting table, high tech vs sword and magic.

They haven't been shown to be more sophisticatedly written nor deeper compare to most in Genshin at present. One is a comedy like Marvel movies, another is more like an adventure like LoTR.Īs for character personality, tbd for Star Rail, there's hints of back story, but none explored, even Bronya/Seele/Gepard are barely use as anything but plot devices at present objectively speaking. (Not to mention the clear advantage of using the environment to your advantage due to open world with height, ledges, waters, fire, rain etc) Turn-based are essentially one click to trigger animation, there's limited unintended combo in Star Rail, also, elemental reaction style comes with far more variety than DPS only status effect, freeze and break. Wish system, yes, Gacha for light cone is better. Weekly content, yes, Simulated universe is better.įalse, all Genshin character are viable with little investment.įalse, just look at Zhongli/Kokomi/Nahida/Bennett/Xingqiu etc use rate, they're all supports btw. So you cant really say its blows star rails out of the water when star rail has so many good things that genshin just doesnt have and that after nearly 3 years now of exisitng. You can farm some level up mats throu expeditions NPC storys are better as they actually revolve around the character itself + More depth to character personalitiesĮasier farm not having to wait for bosses or have to walk through domains over and over again.

Variety in playstyles + weapon styles in star rails feels much better as you dont have the same attack animations for every character.

Star rails character designe is so much better Wish system is better for 'weapons' as you have 75% chance and then be able to get it 100% next time unlike genshin Healers and defensive supports actually matter in content Every unit has its use and is viable as of now
