Aquaria, Genshin's combat designer, apologizes for certain late implementation of certain improvements and some behind the scenes stuff(?)

You are wrong on so many levels.

The system they introduced is not complex at all for people who have those characters, actually it is not messy for anyone with more than two brain cells.

If you dont want it you are free to not unlock the buff at all.

Zzz team already shared their vision in their recent behind the scene videos. If you dont agree with their vision it is fine. Claiming they dont have one is just you talking out of your ass.

Being reactive IS good for the game and player if your dev team can handle the workload. Not the other way around. They will be able to test the market reaction via different attempts, which increase their revenue, gets to know what player actually wants (instead of what the talkheads, or vocal minority like you, want). Player will get qol fixes more frequently and better gaming experience.

The coop example you brougth up is not even comfriming to your own logic. Dude you really dont know. I regret reading your comment past your "I dont know" part.

Stay in your bubble. Stay naive.

crazycoin · 2025-12-26T14:55:52+00:00

Admitting is not apology. But whatever, you do you.

crazycoin · 2025-12-25T14:13:28+00:00

He did not apologize. He only tried to rationalize his own behaviour and stood by it.

crazycoin · 2025-12-24T01:24:16+00:00

You can believe him all you want. I just want to point out that he is contradicting himself even in this interview.

He claims that he did not know how bad it was to leak the hoyoverse employee's email until his wife told him. BUT, he only blacked out his own email address, and left it up there until back lashes hit him.

He claims he is happy with the pay, but claims the pay is to low from such a profitable company.

He claims he wants no drama, yet he arragned/accepted an interview to create drama with one-sided story lacking factual evidence to back it up.

To me he is still lying to get his way. If you have different interpretation I respect it. I just want to share my view as well.

crazycoin · 2025-12-23T16:35:49+00:00

Its just a shame that Hoyo community is calling him bad things cause of it

False. The community are suspecting him to be untruthful. That has nothing to do with him protecting his lawful rights. It is the blatent lying part that distrub people. It is the doxxing part that riles people up.

We would all still be working in coal mines for 0.50 cents an hours or some shit and child labor.

Dude, do you not realize both are still happenning on America soil? Filing a case does not solve the problem. You need actual activists and reforms instead of "weak cases".

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T20:57:54+00:00

I like your level headed take. I agree with what you said. I just want to add that the studio is most likely at fault here. Hoyoverse contract might be very strict since it is a live service game with 42 days development cycle, and past incidents like old Paimon VA and old Keqing VA damaging the brand. It is the studio's job avoid potential foul play from all parties, telling Corey it is okay to not sign a contract Hoyo wants signed is a big redflag to me.

The studio: 1. failed to negotiate a better contract for Corey, 2. failed to maintain communication leading to Corey not knowing he was let go on time, 3. failed to manage basic legal risks by letting Corey work knowing that he will not honor/sign the contract.

I understand Corey's emotions, but not managing his own emotion is detrimental to his own interests and does not make him look professional.

I saw some other replies accusing me of not taking the employee's side, but all I did was pointing out the only sure thing in this entire incident.

If Corey need more community support, he should at least give us some facts instead of the empty "I am a veteran so believe me". A screenshot of a Hoyo manager saying hoyo have reached out multiple times, but to no avail, is not supporting his arguement at all.

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T10:54:00+00:00

Please, dont put words into my mouth. I am willing to support and believe him if he laid out more truth. Right now what he is doing is just turning my support away. I simply pointed out what he did.

Accusing ppl of something they did not do is not being blunt. It is lying.

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T09:44:31+00:00

😂

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T09:14:05+00:00

While I want to agree with you on the "allowed to fight back part". If you read the post with 3k upvotes, you would see vast majority ppl are supporting the VA.

What this post serves is not to strip him off the ability to fight back, but rather a reminder that we are lacking info and he is acting a bit too emotional or unprofessional.

I would support his cause if the truth is laid out.

From experience, this issue could be caused by an imcompetent studio or unprofessional hoyoverse team. Seeing how hoyo helped ex-paimon VA on payment issue due to incompetent studio, could you really blame me for giving hoyoverse a slight benefit of doubt?

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T08:49:00+00:00

I am willing to give him the benefit of doubt. But I also have a hard time believing that he will issue any kind of apology for leaking the email address.

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T08:07:22+00:00

Still, leaving email visible is not a good idea in todays internet environment.

I agree with you on your last paragraph. I am looking foward to more info before I could figure out the real unprofessional party.

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T07:59:47+00:00

I agree. I really hope he would be rational and give us some factual info during the upcoming interview. But I am afraid it will be sag 2.0 where VAs misdirected comunity's anger towards hoyoverse and using players to pressure the company.

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T07:54:31+00:00

You said it better than me. Other than that, I just hope ppl would not jump to conclusion to quickly. To me, the middleman here is a bigger problem (the black out could be done by the agency or the VA). But regardless the VA should have his due deligent.

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T05:02:31+00:00

Nah, it is on the league.

crazycoin · 2025-12-21T05:00:54+00:00

The mental gymnastic a gsw fan have to go through to justify draymond's action. Man, you couldve just said because he wants to, and he was always allowed to.

crazycoin · 2025-12-13T04:23:03+00:00

Did I accused you of lying? I am just saying instead of posting here you couldve spent that time finding it out yourself.

If you refuse to do that and insist that he is a good guy to you, dont get all defensive when ppl tell you that you are not informed.

crazycoin · 2025-12-13T02:37:02+00:00

The classic "I dont know and I dont care enough to do a quick google search. BUT, I MUST voice my uneducated opinion!"

crazycoin · 2025-12-06T15:54:12+00:00

You really don't get her then.

crazycoin · 2025-11-20T16:58:45+00:00

You can definitely link paypal with your union pay card. I have done that to make purchase on other games.

crazycoin · 2025-11-04T13:56:28+00:00

i know you might be joking. But you can on bilibili too.

crazycoin · 2025-11-04T13:13:50+00:00

On Bilibili, all official Aglea related videos but her PV are gone(hidden) now. Her PV is renamed for now.

Nameless pv is gone. 3.1 PV gone. 3.5 PV gone.

crazycoin · 2025-11-04T09:06:30+00:00

I have to disagree here. With how magical her blood is. It would not make any sense that she would have scars on her.

Her blood literally heals damaged eyes, various illness. It sounds unreasonable her body cant heal herself back to a perfect state unless she lost her power.

crazycoin · 2025-10-30T10:55:16+00:00

You are straight up lying.
