As I mentioned some interesting stuff in here around the Jane and Piper combination.

Powercreep isn't real, but fomo for sure is. That and the pretty waifu png /j

Hoyo doing me dirty putting Caesar and Burnice right after Jane’s banner 😭

[OokamiKuroCh]

Power creep in Honkai Impact is insane, but only for one particular mode in the entire game, and you can still do good even with older characters. The only people truly affected by power creep are those that are very, VERY, competitive. And at that point you'll never beat anyone that spends a lot in the game. Hoyo has never, EVER, released content that cannot be cleared by free or trial characters.

[Dancan]

The real problem that needs to be addressed is that the characters are getting hotter and my pulls remaining are getting smaller 😢😂

[happyphiri]

Zhu Yuan should get a physics buff as well
Jane can't keep on getting away with it

[burpprodigy]

The Lycon > Like and subscribe combo was genius

[lumaletsplay]

Caeser is probably going to be the last character I pull for just because I like their design a ton, and I want an S rank of each category. Afterward, I'll sit out the banners until and save up for a character I REALLY enjoy.

[kiracaos]

People are worrying too much for power creep. The game has barely been out for 2 months. We can probably reallistically talk about power creep, once every single category of agent has at least 2 agents, example being, Qingyi and Anby. And that will take a long while

I'm a normal person, i see average luck gamer post, i click

[christopher]

Your content is far above average! Thank you for your work!

my therapist: “miyabi powercreep isn’t real, it can’t hurt your ellen”

Hoyo loves to have their cake and eat it too, creating a perception of power creep while not actually creating any content that "weaker" characters can't clear. Like, that's the trick! Make it feel like there's powercreep to get the whales to spend, while not actually lose players to the negative effects. It's clearly been extremely lucrative!

[RafaelBanks]

you are right on a few things, the first is that you really shouldn't be worried about powercreep because new options don't suddenly make older options worse at what they currently do well. So your dps isn't going to suddenly do less damage or be a worse unit if a higher damage unit comes out for instance.
Now regarding Caesar; the concerns about are not about powercreeping the A rank defenders, caesar's current beta iteration has the fastest daze buildup in the entire game (so she stuns faster than Qingyi does). She also gives a 1000 attack buff to your onfielder along with a generic damage increase buff (so she buffs more than any soukaku does).
So the powercreep discussion about Caesar is not about her being better than Defense characters, it's the fact that she is shaping up to not only be the best stunner in the game but also the best support in the game while being neither a stunner nor a support.
All of this without mentioning the fact that her additional ability is not only activated by members of her faction but by any character who can perform a defensive assist (meaning she works with literally every melee unit in the entire game).

So while on one hand, Caesar will not suddenly make other units worse by power creeping them, she is absolutely be looking to be the best unit in the game on pretty much every single team: The current Beta calcs have Caesar being stronger than Lycaon in an Ellen against neutral resistant enemies.

granted, i would be extremely surprised if her current iteration makes it to the live game, she will most definitely be nerfed in some way or another.

[richardjohnson]

For me power creep is always part of live service game and if it's going to put you off from the game then I really don't know what to tell you.

Don't spend beyond comfort for any character no matter how much you like them, try to enjoy them while they're relevant, and either move on when the new shiny toy comes out or accept that the new thing is better but you still love the older thing

I'm not pulling qinyi because I love Anby. Qingyi is her direct and better replacement but I'm still enjoying Anby just the same

[SwitchbackCh]

I've never felt the "1.0 Pressure" with other Hoyo games until ZZZ. I was pretty relaxed in Genshin and skipped Seele in Star Rail, I think it's a testament to how appealing ZZZ's characters are (to me specifically at least) that I legitimately feel every limited character is desirable in some form or another, whether through gameplay or aesthetics!

[shaunabdilla]

In HSR, they invalidated previous investments and got away with it because the game is still successful. I expect them to do the same here—and maybe even push it further—to see just how much they can milk their player base.

[Zeelly]

Realisticlly a pve style gacha will never have a power creep too severe and even more with a ARPG like this one (also i need take your luck for a bit for Ceaser TYVM)

[wafaay]

While yes Caesar isn't powercreep since she's the first limited defense unit, as you said she's "the baseline" which is somehow more terrifying because you gotta wonder if this is the base then what kind of insanity will come after her ?

[alluu]

They just released 4 5 Stars limited characters that are already powercreep from the standard banner. We will see the next powercreep a year from now.

[nurventilatoren]

Ngl, the way the video title is worded, it sounds like Copium.

"There is no powercreep, trust me bro"
