Man weapons being guarantee feels good, it's not a scam anymore

[Bugermanchi]

“Kuro is being too generous” is honestly more of a compliment. Like who doesn’t like a lot of reward, it’s almost masochistic to use it against them

[JazzMyOpinion]

kurogame has been known to be generous since PGR. the devs arent really money hungry. as a PGR player we even have meme that kuro game is allergic to money because of how generous they are. but its more or less that the devs are just passionate to the game that they made. they arent just devs but also a gamer (in fact they are a big fan of DMC that why theres easter eggs on wuwa about it )thats why they understand its players opinion and suggestions. its very rare to have a devs like this on a gaming industry.

My favorite part about WUWA is probably their business model to be honest. Being generous towards players, taking feedback and actually implementing it, making it easy and accessible to actually farm gacha currency for new characters for those who are F2P, and especially the guaranteed weapon.

All of that makes me want to spend money EVEN more believe it or not. And I have! I’ve spent probably a little under $100 on wuwa so far and don’t regret it even a little (insider pass, astrite pass, and $50-$60 on Jinhsi weapon 😅). Other than Genshin which I’ve probably spend half a grand and don’t feel too good about it despite the spending being over a year old.

Makes me feel like my money is being put to good use and for good reward and not just to be predatory towards me. At this point, I’d even be up for a 30 day pass of crystal solvents just because it’s good investment and I know Kurogames is a good company.

Not to mention giving like 3 standard five star characters practically for free. I’m only missing Lingyang (which I’m okay with) AND you get a free five star weapon selector like oh my god.

All of it made me WANT to support Kurogames with my money and I felt good doing it 😭

"Wuwa might not kill Genshin but it definitely kill it for me"

- Me and so many other player it seems

I went back to GI to clear Abyss and the new end game content cuz although I main WW now I still havent quit GI but damn, despite playing GI since release and only about 2 months of Wuwa my muscle memory is basically overwritten by WW lol. I keep trying to do animation cancel, air dash/double jump, lock on, dodge counter, and so on XD

I still think the elemental system in Genshin is fkcn genius but goddamn the gameplay is so flat. No counter aside from very specific character and switching to them to do the counter is pain especially if your main DPS ability disappear on switch (Dehya kekw), no parry, no perfect dodge, enemy hitbox is so chunky and since you have very limited movement option there are many time where you might get stuck or get pushed around by enemy hitbox which is such a pain. Your construct keep getting destroyed, the enemy is so static, since the game don't have much of a movement option it mostly rely on static combo.

I could go on and on but yea, I think the worst part of GI for me is that at release I can hope that game would improve and be better but now I can only accept that this is the best it could ever be. Even if there is some change in QoL update it is too little too late and I highly doubt it can be anything crazy

[hankieski]

Genshin ruined Genshin for me long before wuwa came out. I could barely play it without feeling annoyed or bored with no QoL improvements and even genshin’s new zones felt like the same old thing. I often took long breaks. Because it left such a bad taste I didn’t think I’d like Wuwa but decided to try it…now I can’t stop playing! I’m actually laughing while playing! I love that it’s edgy and gives me many ways to challenge my characters. I uninstalled “childish” genshin a few days later. I forgot how much fun gaming can be! As generous as Kuro is, ironically I’ve spent more in wuwa than I ever did in genshin. Go figure!

[nebuchadness]

I still remember the statement of Genshin: "We won't add endgame in genshin because we don't want our players to get burned out of playing".

A few days after Wuthering waves launched,
Genshin: we need to add more stamina, add second endgame, some qol and natlan Pokemons too 😂

[Dorinoz]

For me, Genshin is a great game, but Wuthering waves is an upgrade, I am still playing both but i would say i enjoy wuwa more .

[doedoel]

Regarding WuWa's story; sometimes I feel like it's kinda unfair to compare a game with 4 years of stories with 4 regions to a game that's freshly released. But sometimes I do feel like well, it's just opinion. I gotta hear more because some of them are great insight.
Nonetheless, my gripe with Genshin's story is that they feed the Traveler's lore in small amounts for like, 4 years. Whereas in Wuthering Waves (spoiler alert for those who haven't finished Mt. Firmament arc) the sentinel first calls you Lord/Lady Arbiter, which is a huge deal, and then not long they explain to you that YOU are their master! Boom! Mystery of our past, solved! Just like that.

[exo_eve]

The only thing keeping me with Genshin at this point in my attachment to the characters i hyperfixated on and the story (i have to see it through) but gameplay wise im so tired and have been for awhile. Wuwa has been a dream to play and excited for Kuro to polish the game even more as time goes by.

[nonbiri]

my breaking points at Genshin after playing Wuwa are the Dailies and Event strucutres. how Genshin's Dailies was such a chore to do, either the monotonous objectives or unskippable yappers NPCs.

After the 2nd year, events consist of only minigames/party games that doesn't justify the amount of times you have spent building characters and the most irritating thing is you have to sit through a 10-30 minutes of scenario with NPCs that we'll never see again just to start any event.

Also on how every few events there will always be Itto featured, like they have a lot of characters and somehow they could only afford itto every single time? Itto's appearance on the Chasm also doesn't even make any sense, whether he existed or not nothing changes the flow of the story, he's only there to bloat the story

[exiletheblank]

Just remember that Kuro giving a fuck ton of rewards isn't going to fix skill issue xd

[luxifer]

Pgr with 100% rate up on debut with weapon banner always staying there at 80/20 rate. Also for Acheron, try checking out Alpha aka, Vergil’s daughter from pgr

[WI-FI_GOD]

I don’t hate genshin but I refuse to play until the ending is entertaining

[bbseno]

19:05 gacha gamers seem to have a severe case of stockholm syndrome, lets not forget that all gachas are predatory money milking machines, you shouldn't feel bad receiving rewards from them. Even f2p contributes to the game's success simply by playing the game because you're participating in their eco system, whales don't want to swim in an empty ocean with no fishes.
The loyalty & goodwill the game bought will come back to benefit it in the long run.

[Konamik]

Besides the gameplay, when I saw the SKIP dialogue button. I instantly felt in love of Wuwa...

[EcstasyBliss]

I have had SO much luck on all my pulls in wuwa, and their generosity has blown me away. It's enough that I don't think I'll be spending any more money on characters in Genshin. I'm only still playing Genshin because I've invested so much time and money into it that it's not worth quitting. The traveling and combat are amazing. I agree. I don't understand people who defend multi-million/billion-dollar companies, they're wildly stupid. Wuwa has treated me better than Genshin has in 4 years.

[ugh]

i still like genshin but ever since i tried wuwa i find it a drag to play genshin, mostly bc of the movement and lack of QoL features. it feels so slow and annoying to move in that game, especially since now when we have something to compare it to. that said, as far as story goes i think wuwa needs some time to develop. i don't think it's fair to compare stories that have been out for years with so many characters and development in comparison to a newly released game where we've barely scratched the surface of the story and the characters. i think wuwa's 1.0 story had poor storytelling and was overall pretty mediocre for the most part but 1.1 was a major improvement in my opinion and made me way more excited for the future story. that doesn't mean that wuwa's story will be better than genshin's but it's too early to compare them. i like genshin's story but for me i wasn't really hooked on its story until way later, i didn't think genshin 1.0 was that amazing of a story either personally.

[AngryPringles]

never signed up for ZZZ and barely play genshin now cause WuWa killed genshin for me and ZZZ is not my kind of game

[strawberry_.]

something i've seen people talk about, is the character designs/models. I seen people (including myself) love the designs of the characters, and some people criticize the designs for being too monochrome.

which they have right to their opinion, imo I think the designs fit perfectly since this takes place in a post-apocalyptic world. (And also have they never played any other game that’s not brightly colored before?)

And about the models, I just love love love the different models they use for each character. kuro don’t just simply recycle the same model.

encore doesn’t look the same to lingyang, calcharo having a different nose shape compared to jiyan(in the game), and some of the characters have different heights to them.

Though I think that some of the girls have same face syndrome Idk, I could be wrong.

Regardless, I hope that kuro could do more body diversity with both the masc and fem characters in the future, especially for fem char’s.

TLDR: i’m an artist, and I love the character designs in this goddamn game you can fight me.
