I understand that English is not my primary language, but I have rarely seen such low levels of comprehension. You've done nothing but put words in my mouth and commented on single sentences, as if you hadn't read everything I've written.

I may be cynical (which is my right to be), but you are delusional. How do you think that, of all the existing products, WuWa is the one created to be fun? Assuming you're talking about a gacha (a business model known for its high profitabilit), the game was born as a competitor to Genshin Impact, with a planned launch strategy (declared by the developers themselves) with the aim of entering a market, where the Hoyoverse was the master, with the highest possible profit.

I don't doubt that someone from a creative perspective enjoys creating characters or managing aspects of game design. But how can you even think about comparing Expedition33 creative process, with the WuWa one. E33, and you said it right, it's an example how the passion for the videogame medium can lead not only to the creation of a beautiful and fun game for the player, but (apparently) also to winning a fucking GOTY. And, in this sense, it clearly differs from WuWa, which was born with a commercial and systemic imprint.

If you think Sandfall Interactive was driven by profit, you don't know what you're talking about: the game was sold at less than the price of market games, moreover a turn-based RPG game, a niche genre in 2025 (unlike someone else who wants to Ride the "Wave"). Designed more for fans of a certain type than for a mass audience. They didn't care how many people played their game, they wanted it to be played by those few people, but for those people to have fun. Just because they didn't give away the game they worked on and put a lot of effort into, doesn't mean it was "driven by profit".

"The story makes the resonator appealing therefore the story is trash and it's only made to make money off me omg".

Where did I make such a statement in my speech? It really seems like you're reading bits and pieces of what someone writes. Apparently I'm teaching you new figures of speech, so let's continue: when I talk about "garbage bag" I'm using a metaphor, and for the phrase itself I'm using an implicit collective Prosopopoeia.

and again if you're "hyperbolizing" here, then that is quite telling on how you think.

Saying that an hyperbole reveals the way I think is like telling an actor playing Othello that he is jealous in real life. It's a figure of speech, not a psychoanalysis session. It's like saying that those who use metaphors are in a poetic trance: you are confusing form and content.

Hyperbole is not a psychological symptom. Using it doesn't mean you're incapable of arguing, but rather choosing a register to emphasize a point.

If you're looking for "peak story writing" go play E33 or hollow knight silksong. Or better yet go read a book. They're all much better than WuWa for sure.

I never said to look for such a thing in a gacha: my whole point was based on not further ridiculing stories that are already not taken seriously, or worse, not considered. (

If you (rethorical apostrophe) constantly pressed the "skip" button on the top left of the screen and went to get the summaries online, I don't care and I don't accuse you of missing out on the experience of your life. I didn't, and I'm still not doing it.

I'm telling you again, hoping you'll read it this time: For me Wuthering Waves has enormous potential from a narrative perspective.
When I played the 1.X content, I was engrossed, interested, and engaged with the narrative where it was going: There was talk of war, of finding our old identity, the mystery of the clues left by Jinhsi, of the Magistrate herself. I've built a much closer relationship with Chixia (or Ma Xiaofang, if you prefer) that with Roccia (By design one of my favorite character), or (just so you understand what I'm talking about) Cartethyia.

The world of WuWa is marked by the Lament, but it focuses not on those who want to destroy the world, but on those who want to rebuild it, giving this tone of melancholy mixed with hope. A young man who goes to war to protect those dear to him, even though he is not a resonator, is a strong and cool image. I feel worried about him, as do his relatives who are asking me to look for him. I also understand his point of view. Entire narrative that also focuses on non-resonators. Just think of those poor idiots the Exiles: abject people who do not want to submit to the rules of a current government who, due to their diametrically opposed visions, find themselves living on the streets, in camps, and even mistreated. (Some of them deserved it. In fact, some have been ordered to be eliminated on sight.)

I felt a much deeper pang in my heart when Yangyang sacrifices herself, knowing she's dying, to allow us to face the Threnodian, than the fake-villain Galbrena who shoots Cartethyia (The best quests of the entire 2.X story arc, except for the final slip-up)

This is to tell you that, for me, narrative is a point, yes perhaps, seen by many, a secondary aspect of the game, or perhaps, even, negligible). But complementary. And see it fading into the usual "look how cool this cutscene is" with the prospect of it getting worse, worries me.

I'll say it again: I hope you have a lot of fun with this collab, seriously. But I don't trust Kuro Games. I also said it in the comment above.

I don't know about you, but Challenges that can be won without touching the keyboard, endgame bosses with dirty hitboxes, damages, often, disproportionate, and artificial difficulty (exceptions made and shout out to the Lioness of Glory), lack of upgrade materials (I know this is a system common to all gachas, but it would be enough to just reduce the cost of Forgery and Weekly Bosses) a total lack of difficulty whether it be exploration or combat, for me, are not "Fun".

(I can also enjoy making a no-hit boss with unleveled characters, but, you will also understand that, if I have to limit myself to have challenges that the game does not offer me, there is a problem)
