@Arcflix123@hubbowastaken well YES THAT'S THE POINT. the event is created FOR older active players. new players can sit down play the game first then care abt this event AFTER they got more chars :/ this event literally designed to RETAIN older active players
@wakatoshi007@hubbowastaken eh now you're talking abt returning player?? pls this is a whole different discussion then, different types of players need different treatment/events. the post was strictly abt old active vs new player, returning player is different :/
@nerdvias@hubbowastaken although i cannot defend 4++ years player who never spend pulls on any of the chars π€£π€£ e.g. strictly pulling for fave char only, never pulls, etc. that's... unlucky you i guess π
@nerdvias@hubbowastaken i also dont have the data but ive seen many players with 1500+ active days (4 yrs btw) and if they're loyal enough like that even as f2p u can get around half of the roster. problem is some 1-2 yrs players think this event is for them specifically instead of seeing bigger picture
@Beirry_27@hubbowastaken lol i can't disagree for the shit part π€£ the powercreep is diabolical indeed
but if u dont have around half of these chars, id brazenly assume ure not that "old player" that they intend to cater with this event. also means ure not a spender as well
@Arcflix123@hubbowastaken how'd you know it's for smaller set of people? π€π€ do u have the data of old players retention rate, spending trend, or what...
@Y_o_m_o_A@hubbowastaken sadly im actually invalidating OP cuz they say "fundamentally can't attract new players" like... that's fundamentally not what the even is made for?
if u want to talk abt overall game improvements / how to attract new players, get a new topic, this event is unrelated
@rubyjaneval@hubbowastaken YES i had to agree on the one cons per char, that's a legit concern and no logical reason could explain what's behind that disgusting gatekeeping behavior.
@wakatoshi007@hubbowastaken idk tho maybe just me, but if im offered to play a new game for 8 weeks straight with 5/7 weekly attendance just for a measly single new char, that won't be the reason im gonna keep playing or not...........
@ayatofan01@hubbowastaken OK THIS IS SOOOOO REAL 1000%
iif there's anything worthy to bash this event it's the fact that we can't pick the same char every cycle. like, FOR WHAT????
@googlyghost@hubbowastaken we dont have the data trend of genshin new player. a strategy works in other game doesnt mean it's gonna work in genshin. also idrk but hot take, atp mhy might've changed strat to retain instead of attract, cuz market saturation. new players marketed for their newer games
@hubbowastaken just ignore it then
"but i just want to point out its stupidity"
yeah sure, but its fundamentally not created to attract new players, so your opinion just make u sound dumber lol
