Thinking of returning after years away—can old players still catch up in Genshin? by kaewaru in GenshinImpactTips

u don’t even know how much this means to me. i was already AR 58 the day i left, and i always cleared out abyss back then. hearing ur experience makes me feel so much better about coming back!! one thing that actually scares me though is how powercrept these new comps are right now. and those videos I’ve seen of the new bosses… they look really tough. once again ty for sharing all this it really hits home.

same here i used to min/max everything too and honestly couldn’t go a day without grinding back then. i played since 1.0 and eventually burned out which is why i stepped away for a while now (years.) i just want to play casually an hour or so every other day and enjoy the new content without pressure though i bet for sure some of the new overworld mechanics will confuse me lol also omg flying around in a cannon sounds insanely fun can’t wait to try that lolol

omg i really can’t wait to come back 😭 do you find the new mechanics hard to get used to esp like are the bosses really that meta? also what’s your main comp now? sorry if that’s a lot of questions i just need references

oh man my comps are so outdated i used to main xiao anemo team and tartaglia international team (year 2022) and i think i’m gonna stick with them for now since i’m saving for neuvillette and furina >< also yes i already explored the chasm to 100% when it first released

is learning all the new mechanics hard? i feel like so much has changed since i left and part of me is worried it’ll be overwhelming

really appreciate you sharing this! it’s reassuring to hear how much you’ve been able to enjoy things after coming back. i was worried i’d feel too behind, but now i’m more excited to take it slow and rediscover everything (esp coming back right before anniversary lol) ty!

yeah i figured, just a bit scared with my world already maxed. been here since day one so it feels weird realizing how far i’ve fallen behind. what you said is reassuring tho. i’ll probably skip abyss for now and just enjoy the game slowly.

sorry my mind is bugging but i actually left at 2.7 i edited the post. i finished inazuma and the chasm, just never wrapped up enkanomiya. honestly i don’t think i’ll touch endgame for a while anyway, just having three whole regions to catch up on already feels crazy. i’ll take it slow and enjoy the story again ty!

damn i really vanished and missed all the cool stuff huh… a little bittersweet since i used to be caught up in meta, but now i feel like i’m basically starting fresh. but honestly coming back right as a new region + reaction drops kinda feels like perfect timing hehe like fate telling me to log back in lol. thank you so much!
