The Free to Play Experience in 2024. Genshin Impact

I finally decided to try Genshin Impact completely free to play... and the experience was interesting. I figure out how long it takes to get to Adventure Rank 25 and how many wishes new players get. This also serves as a guide for new players to begin their exploration in Genshin Impact. This also serves as a guide for new players to hit Adventure Rank 25 as fast as possible.

As a f2p since the beginning release, I have become so cracked you wouldn't know I'm not a whale.

New players have an overwhelming amount of already out & incoming new characters of which they have to decide who to prioritize. And amount of primos hasn’t really changed apart from new regions

As a day 1 player, this was a nice trip down memory lane. More please 🙌🏼

I consider myself to have progressed into the veteran player bracket, but let me say that as a fully F2P player, when a random 10-pull nets you a limited 5 star character, the exhilaration is REAL.

That excitement is reminiscent of how great GI felt as a new player when you just got ANY new character to join your party. It was such a great time learning about who the character was and what they were all about.

On the subject of pulling; luck has been pretty wild this 4.0 patch. Got Neuvillette early, Navia in a vanity 10-pull, along with Raiden and Nahida just before or around soft pity, never losing a 50-50 for any of them.

Update: Lads, I was feeling the LNY spirit and did a few pulls. Xianyun came out of her abode and said she wished to travel and see the world too. Dipped into the primo-stash, and came out with an early 50-50 win 🏆.

I think you should make this into a series.

I wish there was a way to obtain event locked weapons for newer players ngl

This was a fun style of video for you! I felt like your personality really shone through in how this was edited

My starting f2p experience -
1. Didn't got a 5 star charcter until AR 43
2. Lost my 50 50 to Kequing , I went to hard pity
3. First limited 5 star charcter was Zhongli, also went to hard pity
4. I have lost 6 50 50out of 10
5. Btw I went to hard pity all the time except 2 times, where I lost my 50 50 to kequing at 40 pity
6. Now I have 1 artifact above 50 CV and multiple artifact above 40 CV
7. I'm AR 59 now

As a long time viewer, loved the vid! Super excited to see where this goes and how your teams end up. The only thing I ask is for more live reaction/commentary? (if possible) ESPECIALLY for wishes. Hearing the excitement in someone’s voice gets everyone more invested! Also, whenever you’re exploring and have a thought it could be refreshing to hear on the spot analysis of what you think, breaks up the scripted stuff.

I mained Keqing for a good chunk of early game since i got her in 3 pulls, then her c1 in 2 more pulls.

[hipunpun]

The highlight being pulling a character that helped traverse the world better, showcases (imo) that there's an issue with mobility for most characters.

I reached a point in my game where I was running Yelan & Sayu to get around the world faster because running around consumed so much time.
I genuinely believe that the game would be better if they implemented some sort of mount or out of combat movement speed bonus.

A bit over a year ago, I did a similar exercise and started a new account to experience the game from a newcomer's F2P perspective. I've been playing since launch and am not F2P on my main. It was really fun and made me appreciate the game a lot more. The only problem is that I stuck with that account and it's AR59 now, but still F2P. It's kind a pain managing two accounts but no regrets. The funny thing is that the first banner I decided to pull on was Nahida and I managed to beat the 50/50 to get her. It felt so exhilarating getting her and she was a game changer for my F2P account.

[Aishea]

It was a treat to watch you have that f2p excitement about an early 5-star pull. It just hits different when you know you'll have to stack up the primogems by spending time playing the game. You had some great tips for anyone looking to rank up a new account quickly (Waypoints, mondstadt exploration, adventurer's handbook), but also for new players (stuff like: keep thrilling tales and grab every anemoculus you can for increasing stamina). I would love to see you make more like this (whether continuing an f2p account or just making tips/guides to mid-game [AR 25-45?] player experience)

I started playing around 2.6 during ayaka's banner. I didn't know there was a gacha system and i thought i got characters from progressing through the quests. This happened until i realized there was a gacha system after completing inazuma's archon quest around ar 40-ish (i was looking through achievements, collecting shiny gems (primogems) and began to wonder what these shiny gems are used for. It took that long bcs genshin is my first gacha game. The first standard character i got was mona from wishing on the noelle banner. Ayaka was my first limited 5 stars thanks to her extended banner that people called her banner eternal at that time. I lost 50/50 to mona again at soft pity if i'm not mistaken but i managed to grab ayaka at the last day of her banner before 2.7 started

I have been playing since day one, but about a year ago I started a second account which I have kept f2p and under ar 25. That second account has been so much fun! I still maintain my main account so the second one feels very relaxing to play without any fomo or worry about maxing all my characters. I use the second for exploration and co op when I want to have a chill evening and it really has been a fantastic experience (so different to the main account!). Like you touch on here there is a wealth of experiences for new/low level players and I honestly think that I have more plain fun on my second (low level) account than I do on my main.

[Ahri]

Took me until inazuma back then and i lost the pitty at 83 to jean on kokomis banner for my 1. 5 star. Also have hit pitty on the standard banner a bit after that and got Jade Spear, was mad back then because I really wanted new characters 😅

[dazzle]

i honestly miss the gameplay experience of being a beginner like the gameplay wasnt anything special neither was the story but it was so calm and so much to do 💀back then i remember thinking chests respawn bc i kept finding some i thought i already got really do hope we get some not just timed combat but something fun endgame maybe like a parkour thing maybe maybe

[nicolasc]

Excellent video! really remembered me the good old time as a first week player (missed day1)!

[VeliaOwO]

I love this type of video, I hope you will continue it! My first 5 star was Keqing, I got her on Tighnari‘s banner in 3.0 :D

[jimmp]

i really enjoy this.. would appriciate if you do more cause it bring some memories back when i first time playing during di lockdown
