Is genshin impact the future or the past?

How will it continue to impact world of warcraft?

Take a look on how many people care on a WORLD OF WARCRAFT forum board.

There is significant overlap and thus competition.

Especially when it comes to nedgme

For what?

Open world exploration.

Team based combat.

Difficult endgame content.

Fomo.

Fantasy setting.

Player character is/can be an alien.

Endless grind. Everything you had a year ago might be useless today endgame wise.

Live service.

Gliding.

Respawning enemies.

Player housing (soon).

In game TCG.

In game mini games.

Temporary zones/regions.

Popular among men and women.

Levelling up.

Gear/equipment.

Cartoon artstyle.

Non combat pets that follow you around.

Sit in the environmental chairs and benches.

Vodep gahe.

Waifus/Husbandos.

Elves (Sorta)

Magic

Melee and ranged combat.

Summoning/pet abilities.

Movement increasing abilities.

Multiplayer.

Massively popular and profitable.

Space ships.

People with antlers.

Dragons.

Lore/worldbuilding.

Compelling characters/stories.

Lack of democracy.

Playable shawties.

And many more.

So, Genshin has some content… what does that have to do with WOW though?

Genshin is a F2P, P2W trash game… it cultivates a completely different player-base.

Dont forget the weebs. Not just a different player base, an entirely different target audience.

No one is going to look at GA and go “This is just like WoW!”

Idk

people talk about it in wow a lot.

Before your edit you said “Why does everyone i talk to in game talk about it”

Because those are the people you surround yourself with.

I never said there was no one in wow who also liked Genshin. That doesnt make them the same game, or mean they have “significant overlap” I like Maplestory, that doesnt mean it’s going to have an impact on wow, or that they overlap.

getting riritated with the forums, I tried to reply to you and it just edited my old post.

I edited it because it was an exageration.

I see it get brought up both by my guild and by trade chat.

“People you surround yourself with”

If everything that popped up in tradechat had overlap with wow, our gameplay would be about scantily clad politicians.

Not the worst idea, might be worth exploring in a .5 or .7 pat6ch,.

there is literally zero overlap besides the rpg part. you cant even see people unless youre grouped in genshin. what are you on about…

This would be a hit, tbh. It doesnt even need to be the best gameplay, but rather something stupid like escaping the Capitol while avoiding Lindsey Graham wearing the latest items from the victorias secret fashion show

A pay to win gacha mobile game is not real competition for WoW. Or really any PC MMOs.

Sure there might be some overlap but competition? Nah. No one who’s an avid WoW player is going to sit at their desk and play on their phone. Sure maybe some WoW players play it a bit when they’re not a home and only have access to their phones. But it is not competition in any real way.

WoW should steal BOTW’s UI like Genshin did, clearly.

Trash storytelling ruined it. Stopped caring after they killed signora.

Genshin also looks dated now. More modern cell shading games have so much more detail its insane how fast things improve
