UPDATE: As of posting this, I finished the story and I'm level 24, the story PICKS UP SO MUCH and the ending is so epic so please stick with it! Also, endgame activities are super fun to grind for rewards but they wont be easy! Anyways, hope you enjoyed the video, let me know if you want more :)

Players arguing why Genshin is better than WW or why WW is better than Genshin, just enjoy what you want to play, you can play GL, HSR, HI3, PG, ZZZ or WW, your choice, it's just sad seeing the fandom trash talking the other game from the other game, let the community play what they want, if you don't like the game, no need to spat it out on the internet, just play the game you prefer! People have the habit or the urge to defend their favorite game and trash talk the other, where will that lead? Nowhere.

One of the things that I love is the fact that world feels alive and believable, like I was impressed seeing soldiers fighting the enemies out in the open. Also cities feels like they can really contain a nation worth of people. It's just immerseve

I think my only complaints are that some of the audio is janky; music abruptly cuts off if you go outside of certain areas and voice lines get cut off as well as some of the English VAs sounding a little robotic. My other complaint is that there is isn’t controller support for mobile which is a major bummer for me. I play genshin exclusively with a controller (mobile and ps4) since I have big hands and they take up half the screen. Once they add the support for it I’d probably play more. I know there’s probably nothing they can do for the voice actors other than fix the abrupt cut offs.

Here's me, sitting in my own little corner enjoying Genshin, Honkai and now Wuthering Waves witout caring for this Gatcha war that's going on. Genshin needs healthy competition, not for it to be "killed" and I can see Wuthering Waves being that healthy competition that Genshin needs. Nothing will be a World of Warcraft killer but it has healthy competition like Final Fantasy XIV and Star Wars: The Old Republic. I'm not gonna judge the game until console release as I'm having a hard time adapting to mobile controls(I never normally play moba games) but despite that I'm enjoying my time in WW.

I like that the world gives me post-apocalyptic vibes ... Love it so far, trying something new is refreshing.

I really like how they setup talent materials, instead of equally splitting all characters into one of 3 talent material upgrades they split it according to the weapon type. Great way to prefarm materials

Doro: Speaks positively about the game for 3/4 of the video.
Also Doro: negative thumbnail.
*facepalm*

NOT ME SAVING FOR SCAR 👁️👄👁️ and all the other future husbandos…….. 🤫

I do like how the devs are responding, but the lag is still so bad that it’s basically unplayable. So much of this game is about precision and I can’t do it when it’s a slideshow. I hope they can eventually fix it

from my personal experience, here are some cons:
1) graphics: while it may look pretty, it will take a toll on your computer. Relatively high minimum system requirements, so its pay-to-win in that aspect if you don't have a decent PC, you're gonna struggle to play the game in general.

2) movement: this is just for me personally, while the wall run, sprint, wall flip etc. are good, the "inertia" of the characters movement is so bad. it makes it seem you're walking on ice. But this is from a mobile player. But i've also seen people in PC have issue with this as well.

3) combat QoL: camera movement and the enemy targeting is really really bad rn. hope it gets fixed on future patches.

4) resources?: f2p resources are really scarce but idk if its just a new player problem. and some items require a lot of materials just to get. if you're the type of person who's impatient. Don't play this game cause you need to grind (for comparison genshin needs 50 ores to craft a free weapon, in wuwa triple that with 150ores.... this is just bruh). but hey a lot of people likes the grind.
and don't let the 240 max "stamina" fool you. For comparison a world boss in genshin needs 40 to claim with 8min per stamina recovery (180 stamina in 24hrs) so in genshin you can claim 4 world bosses in 24hours + 20 stamina extra. Wuwa needs 60 to claim a world boss with 6mins per stamina (240 stamina in 24hrs), so its only exactly 4 world bosses in 24hrs (its a bit less compared to genshin).
[disclaimer this does not mean "genshin is better than wuwa", this is just for comparison since genshin is the only realistic baseline for this genre of games and its also the game i'm most familiar with so the comparison are more accurate].

5) no skip button: some parts of the story doesn't have a skip button, and the character quests have almost zero skip buttons (skip buttons in story quest do exist but it only skips like a few lines and its also not that frequent, so its a slog especially if you don't care about the character and only care about the rewards)

6) mobile controls: its annoying especially the placement of the "gadget" button

7) combat in mobile: wuwa's combat isn't just about dodging and parrying, its also about switching characters using their intro/outro skills. And there are techs that are really hard to do in mobile or almost impossible to do in a realistic setting and its an integral part of the game since you will lose out on a lot of damage if you don't do these techs, Which is fine if you're a casual, but wuwa's combat is supposed to be less casual so what's the point of playing wuwa at that point.

A heartfelt review like this is what i appreciate the most. Thank you for making this video. Thank you.

[iamabulgazi]

Dorro is right this game combat animation are soo cool that's why I'm addicted to this game also in future updates developers fix this few things guys so just be patient and wait and keep playing

[lefiena]

Honestly I'm devastated that the game is not available on console yet. As someone who has to start out on mobile, it makes me cry a river when I see how good the game actually looks on pc 😭 and since there isn't even controller support for mobile yet, I had such a hard time with the intricate fighting system in the beginning. It took me multiple trys to give this game a chance because it almost feels like it was never intended to have a mobile port ...

But the thing is that you can REALLY feel the potential the game has and that's what made me come back to it over and over again, even if the mobile support (as of now) is not at a great state. I just hope more people will give this game a chance in the future 🙏🏻

Thanks for the vid! Honestly, this is aside from the actual content of this vid, but those Wild Arms tracks during certain parts hit me hard with nostalgia, thx yo!

[faufaufau]

My experience on mobile (ROG 6) was tbh pretty good. I put it on all high with FSR (which is such a blessing), and it averages around 45/50 fps. And it stays on 45/50 wherever I go and it rarely dips even on waves of enemies. The mobile version also allows you to move the majority of the UI element to your liking. Thank you Kuro Games! The combat on mobile is pretty challenging already, but being able to set it out however I like is such a blessing. And yes, the combat system is very fun.

The main problem that I have with WuWa mobile is the text. God damn they are fucking tiny. Can't read a thing in the dialogue option and the skills.

And I agree with Doro. The voice acting on WuWa imo is very hit or miss. Some of the characters just make me wanna skip the story and not play those characters (you, YangYang), and I think their audio recording system is also a bit wack. The mouth flaps and the sound at the end of each line is too noticable. Could be the mic, could be audio mixing decisions, idk.

As for the story, the intro is really whatever. I gotta bring Genshin here, since it's my comment, I do what I want. For Genshin intro, at least we are made aware of the traveler and the traveler were given time to tell their identity. Traveler got caught by an unknown entity, lost her sister, caught Paimon, now wondering around to find the sibling. After the first 5 mins, I know who they are, what they want, and their quirks. On WuWa on the other hand, it was like:

"Hey, you're Rover, right? Oh you lost your memory? Cool. Anyway, the Tacit Discord are blablablablablabla." Man at least make me attached to the main character or smth. Idk if they intend it to be mysterious or smth, but I just don't like the intro of WuWa. I hope the story get better.

Anyway great game, great potential.

MY COUSIN WANTS THIS GAME SO BADLY BUT HER STORAGE IS SO HIGH BECAUSE OF HONKAI AND GENSHIN IMPACT 😭💀

[goblinzed]

Thank you for your video! I agree with you, I'm loving this game and I was blessed enough to play it without problems. I hope they fix ploblems for those that can't play it because it's worthy in my opinion, in particular act 5 and 6 oh boy oh boy

[BanditTheShepherd]

Just started summer break, and I might as well start playing this over the summer. I like having something new to play alongside my collection of games.

[Kazagari]

Just that the fact it's the opposite of 'weapon banner is a scam' is one of the wonderful things I love about WW. Not to mention the ease of traversal and access to see progress. This game wants to be played.
