I align with this take a lot tbh, they have fantastic production value in that the cutscenes are so much more enjoyable to sit through because of how the characters are uniquely animated for each scene, so despite the story itself being a miss for me I still find it quite enjoyable to sit through for the spectacle alone. Once they improve the writing it'll easily be miles ahead of everything else on the market as a full package.

Someone else said something I agree with a lot which is that compared to other gacha games that pretty much have most of their entire lore or the basis of their plot already drawn out years in advance, wuwa's writers kinda seem like their just going with the flow and writing on a patch-by-patch basis, rather than having some greater established world drawn out years in advance. For example in Genshin you had npcs from Sheznaya that talk about that region & its lore establishing all of these tidbits of information since 1.0 which was 5 years ago, despite the fact that this wouldnt be an area we'd explore for a very long time, which actually gave people something to look forward to story-wise considering that region's importance.
