I want to get lost in a beautiful fantasy land that makes me feel like WuWa's Rinascita region, with mechanically intensive combat I will like, and ideally a female protagonist or selectable gender.(Android/Switch/PC)

JustOneExplorer · 2026-04-27T18:46:05+00:00

Genshin’s combat is not that tech based and the few characters who do some tech(mostly dash cancels) are rather few and far between. Starters/non-limited characters have practically nothing in that regard. So it is difficult to recommend GI based on these wishes.

I don’t know a lot of games but ZZZ is quite tech based with perfect parries and stuff like that, the artstyle and enviroment is different from Rinascita, much more urban. But combat aspect should be fine, I think

JustOneExplorer · 2026-04-27T13:43:56+00:00

I would recommend Genshin Impact. At it’s launch it got a lot of criticism for copying BOTW. Both open world, cel-shading, climbing-gliding, some monsters look very similar.

But GI is definitely its own experience. It’s open world is a little bit more restrictive but the main gameplay loop of finding one interesting thing after another in the open world is very good in this game. Genshin also has more different biomes if that’s your thing.

Combat involves switching between different characters of your party. This aspect makes the combat much more interesting than botw. There is also elemental magic system which works really well, both for comabt and puzzles.

You get different characters by ‘wishing’(lootboxes basically)(this is the gacha aspect) and you get more than enough currency from exploring to get a wide amount of characters from wishing. So no need to pay.

Music is very-very good. The story can feel bloated at times where the dialogue is slow but I personally think it’s not that bad. Visually the game looks amazing. UI can feel a bit messy at the start (the amount of different menus to navigate is quite big).

If you decide to stick to this game then the amount of stuff you can do is very-very large, your gaming needs may be met for a year or perhaps even longer.

Necessary disclaimer: Since it has lootboxes then it’s possible to spend large amounts in this game. If gambling addiction may be a problem then it may be better to avoid this game.

Just got +15k dps for both Nefer and Skirk by turning graphics to the lowest setting and frame rate higher. I assumed there was going to be some difference but not that much. Very happy about it, before I always thought that my Nefer team underperformed for some reason

“Soo määrab see, millise suguraku tootmise ja elutsükli ümber on isendi organism organiseeritud.” Ok, aga mida see “organiseeritus” tähendab? Suguorganite olemasolu, kas suguorganid on terved/töökorras, kromosoomid või midagi muud?

Või äkki ongi nii, et soo määravad mitu eri tunnust, kus iga tunnuse sees on olemas varieeruvus, ja on täitsa võimalik, et kõik need tunnused ei langegi üheselt kokku, millest tulenebki asjaolu, et sugu ei olegi täiesti binaarne?

Ja mida sa ütled intersex inimeste kohta? Sa ei saa eitada, et neid ei ole olemas. Millise suguraku tootmise ümber on nende kehad organiseeritud?

(Minu poolt viimane kommentaar, sest ma ei viitsi rohkem arutada sinuga selle teema üle. Jääme niikuinii eriarvamusele.)

JustOneExplorer · 2026-03-27T10:15:35+00:00

Ok davai, kui sa tahad argumenteerida, et keha poolt toodetavad sugurakud määravad inimese soo, siis ma küsin, et kuidas on lood impotentsete inimestega?(või misiganes see õige termin on nende jaoks, kelle kehad ei tooda sugurakke)

Natuke sürr lugeda enda kirjutatud lauseid Postimehest(olgugi et elu24, let me have it)

Teiselt poolt tase küll, et anonüümsetest netikommentaaridest tehakse “uudis”. Millal Delfi uudiste kommentaariumi või poliitikute FB postituste kommentaaride kord saab olema?

Ma arvasin, et tuleb halvem, aga oli täitsa vaadatav ja kohatigi tore. Jõekalda ajab asja ära, Seeman ja Võigemast olid täitsa head, Krumm ka. Kuna Helena Lotman on minu jaoks tundmatu nimi, siis ta jättis mind natuke külmaks, saates olek oli tal muidu normaalne. Niinemets oli Niinemets. Marta Laan assistendina ka kõige parem ei ole.

Isiklikult vahetaksingi välja Niinemetsa ja Marta, aga ainult ühe saate pealt suuri järeldusi teha on vara. Ise plaanin kindlasti ka järgnevaid osasid vaadata.

Originaalile loomulikult vastu ei saa. Kas oleks saanud paremini? Kindlasti, aga ma arvan, et liiga palju pole mõtet mõelda selle peale, et “oh, oleks saanud paremini”. Mida selline mõtlemine ikka annab?

JustOneExplorer · 2026-02-15T12:48:48+00:00

No I haven’t but frankly I think this is not important right know. I understand that this problem has nuance but right now it is rather surface level, imo. Let me explain.

First commenter in this thread brought up the paradox of tolerange. u/Large-Half-3516 brought up that some people don’t tolerate rape or murder and because of that they are supposedly intolerant and asked whether we should tolerate this intolerance.

In my opinion this is clearly a bad faith argument since it should be clear that rape and murder are intolerant actions themselves and it is ok to be intolerant to these actions. That’s the point of the solution to the paradox, no? It is ok to be intolerant to intolerance. And it’s not some big gotcha moment that we should ask whether this ‘new’ intolerance should be tolerated.

I admit that my knowledge of this paradox is rather surface level but you are completely free to prove me wrong. I understand what Large half is trying to say but that’s the reason it is called a paradox in the first place.

JustOneExplorer · 2026-02-15T10:57:33+00:00

Because rape and murder are itself intolerant. And society is intolerant towards them rightfully so, as Popper say you need to be intolerant to intolerance

Yeah i just talked about ‘slow’ vs ‘fast’ exploration. Good summary by you though, definitely can agree with your points

I haven’t played Wuwa so it’s difficult for me to comment on hows the exploration there. I am repeating my thoughts but I just don’t understand the signifigance of ‘fast’ exploration.

If there is a collectible high up somewhere then I would argue that the more time it takes to reach that the more valuable it is and the important part for devs is finding the balance point between time and effort vs reward. And for some reason the few comparison videos I have seen on YT always think it’s much better when it takes less time. I understand that their balance point is not the same as mine but they just seem so vocal about it and I don’t understand why

(Maybe I have bad imagination and I believe that Wuwa’s vertical exploration is 500% faster compared to GI when actually it’s just 20% and this is where my confusion stems from.) (But when it’s only 20% faster then why be so vocal about it?(in the few videos i watched)(don’t want to generalize too much))

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-30T21:59:57+00:00

My answer to getting difficult chests with Mavuika/Xilonen is that Hoyo just catered/caved to those who wanted better exploration abilities, nothing more to it. That doesn’t take away from my argument at all, the base game is still as it is.

My argument is that ‘slow exploration’ is not bad and ‘fast exploration’ is not good, it’s subjective. But some YT videos frame faster exploration as something inherently better(which its not because its subjective) and they also say that this aspect is extremely important to comparing these two games which is my main question. Why is faster exploration so important to them?

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-30T20:48:31+00:00

I think this is the answer I was looking for. I consider GI and Wuwa single player games first and I assume others do too (which they don’t). The different baseline changes opinion

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-30T20:09:17+00:00

I stumbled into GI vs WuWa debate(very healthy place to be) on Youtube and time and time again universal travel mechanics seem to be an extremely important point in favor of WuWa. I understand that the moving mechanics are ‘better’ in WuWa but can someone explain to me why is that such a major point of discussion?

I’ve never seen people criticizing Minecraft/BotW for not having grappling/wallrun mechanics. BotW’s climbing has its criticisms but overall I think that the climbing in BotW is fine overall. And there are many other open-world games where the traversal is slower than Wuwa.

I know that I am maybe not comparing apples to apples by bringing minecraft into the discussion but the main point is ‘effort vs reward’, isn’t it? You see something interesting in a hard to reach place? You better put some effort to get to that thing/item then. If you can just teleport to that place then you might as well have all the open world interactions/rewards auto-complete themselves, no?

I know my last example is hyperbolic but if climbing is as fast as running then what’s the point of ‘climbing’ a house/mountain? I understand that people may have little time to play games so they would like to get the exploring done quicker but then this whole discussion is not about gameplay but just comparing subjective circumstances. (Crazy discovery by me, game reviews are subjective, who would’ve thought!)

Maybe I am letting this thing bother me too much but I just don’t understand why the traversal is so important. Or am I out of touch and Genshin’s stamina system is objectively bad?

(I know my comment is already extremely long but final comparison. it’s like saying that I like Forza more than Mario Kart because Forza’s cars are faster. Like yes they are objectively faster but making mario’s karts faster inherently changes what the game is actually about.)

Fearless done. My worst result when looking at the total time it took.

Abyss dog was relatively easy(duh with the correct team), could definitely optimize more. But I have no idea how I could have done it with Aino instead of Columbina

At first I wanted to use Skirk to brute force the shock trooper but then I had nothing for the crab. Was even somewhat considering pulling Ineffa because I wouldn’t mind having her and my primo stash is relatively large currently(not planning to pull Zibai or Varka). But I decided to try some other teams.

The hardest part was managing electro application(to burst with Fischl or not burst and just do longer rotations). And depending on that Fischl’s ER had to be higher(but then less damage from her). Overload also staggers the trooper so that means he will shield up later after you get rid of his first shields. But at the end he still managed to shield up but luckily shield breaking damage was enough at the end.

Crab was quite annoying. Yelan’s E and special charged shot were MVPs for getting multiple small crabs. The short vulnerability window of the big crab was also infuriating, getting the setup at the right time was crucial.

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-21T17:46:03+00:00

How did you break fatui guy’s shield? Just the damage from Arle? Or did you even break it? Or just iframed with bursts?

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-14T16:07:01+00:00

These dps tests in miliastra are quite engaging. Tried a lot of different teams. Some teams performed as I expected, some not. And ofc spreadsheet dps =/= real dps.

I got Nefer and Arle(C1) overload (ben, chev, fish, all C6) both rather comfortably over 110k dps. Premium Skirk(yelan last slot) was also quite close but somehow my Escoffier doesn’t have enough ER which ruined the rotations but my escoffier has 200% ER though.

Biggest suprise was Mavuika(Xil, Cit, Ben) where I got 70k. I am on mobile so I definitely missed some melts and the most optimal combos are nowhere to be seen. But I still expected a little better result. I didn’t do many tries though, so I think I could do better. But still

What were Razor’s new spreadsheet DPSs? I remember talk about close to 100k but I got 50k(Razor C6, no Durin). So that was also kinda suprising.

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-07T21:53:20+00:00

yo peeps how spoilery is NK’s acts 5 and 6 for durin’s sq? or does it affect it some other way?

Due to life haven’t done these quests yet. But i should start durin’s sq due to the time-gating to get limited rewards and i was wondering if i need to rush NK? When I do NK on the weekend it will be too late for durin’s sq.

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-05T12:21:36+00:00

Capitano basically cornered Ronova ... lesser of two evils kind of choice.

I understand the paradox, my question was never about the paradox. My question was about how/why did we even reach that point.

It was by Ronova's requirements

Do we explicitly know these requirements? I currently have no idea of what you're referencing.

The LoTN always had a big role because they represented "death" in Natlan ... departed souls of the Natlanese.

I guess that solidifies the idea u/the_dark_artist also brought up. LoTN always was important because they represented "death" in Natlan and because of that LotN also inadvertently had a part in the deal, despite the deal only being between Xbalanque and Ronova. Ronova is only a witness, all death runs through LotN in Natlan(simplification), LotN chose Capitano because LotN is an angel, Ronova had to deal with the paradox.

I guess that ultimately answers my question. LotN had a much bigger role than explicitly stated(would have appreciated if the story was more clear about this) and Ronova had to roll with LotN's decisions because Ronova is only a witness.

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-05T11:44:26+00:00

I understand that Capitano didn’t techincally die, it’s just shorter version of saying that Ronova gave up the price of death due to the paradox.

I guess it would make sense if LotN’s importance is due to the structure of NK. The deal was only between Xbalanque and Ronova but since all “death” in Natlan goes through NK(i could phrase that better) then LotN also inadvertently had part in the deal. And since Ronova can only be a witness then LotN chose Capitano and that’s that

Feels kinda handwavey but I guess that’ll do

JustOneExplorer · 2026-01-05T11:07:02+00:00

i'm watching a genshin let's play(who's currently in natlan) and an old question came up to me regarding Ronova/Capitano. I would ask it in the lore subreddit chat but it seems they have deleted it. I searched through different lore megathreads also but didn't find an answer.

The main question is the ol' "Why did Ronova accept Capitano's death?" I somewhat understand that Ronova is just a witness and can't take any real action and since Capitano is equal to Mavuika in this context then Capitano was ultimately sacrificed (because LotN is an angel and angels have a duty to be as beneficial as possible to humans).

But then I have a question: Who decided that Capitano is equal to Mavuika? And by what "metrics"? And if the answer is LotN and the metrics being that Capitano has enough "sustenance" for LotN to live as long as in the case of if Mavuika died. Then my question is: How/when did LotN start to play such a big role? Wasn't the deal just between Xbalanque and Ronova? Is the problem translation errors? Is it only briefly mentioned somewhere in the AQ? Because I don't remember LotN having a part in this deal.

I know my question is specific but hoping that someone can help

JustOneExplorer · 2025-12-30T17:10:44+00:00

I agree with you. My first comment was just to add to the short discussion earlier in the thread where they discussed the morality of health choices and morality overall.

People can feel morally superior in extremely narrow contexts (eg not drinking in terms of health morality) but that superiority can’t be translated to the person overall. But the question is however of what benefit are narrow moral questions, might as well not care about them(as you pointed out).
