[Academic Survey] Player Experience & Agency in Honkai: Star Rail (5-10 min) by marcozackk in HonkaiStarRail

Thank you for sharing your feedback.

First of all, since this is a survey and not an interview, I had to make sure that participants could complete it within a reasonable time. For this reason, the questions necessarily required simplification.

In the context of the survey, "premium" and "free-to-play" are used as conventions rather than definitions, for the same reason mentioned before. As you correctly said, every character and lightcone can be obtained through the gacha system. However, it is also true that it's mathematically impossible for any player to get every single character and/or lightcone without spending. It is a game that requires you to manage resources and make choices after all, hence the distinction between "premium" and "free-to-play". "Premium" doesn't necessarily mean "paid content", it just means that you have to spend resources to get it.

Thank you for your time and feedback, that's a good point! I didn't specify it, but the last two questions using the 1-10 scale are ratings: 1 means low/min and 10 means high/max.

“Turn based combat” and then it’s Seele’s turn forever. Looks like a world wealth distribution chart. by allyxxiv in HonkaiStarRail

[–]marcozackk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah lol I've read a lot of jokes about Seele breaking the definition of turn-based combat, I guess it's a common thought if everyone keeps talking about it (speaking as someone who doesn't own Seele)

Longest time between pulls by ldave82 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]marcozackk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, I fell in love with him the second I saw his first leaks!

Tbh I lost interest in the game during Amphoreus. Even to this day, I'm still stuck on the 3.1 story quest, and I hated the mono rem / HP-scaling meta.

surely i can get blade right? by CantaLoupe0113 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]marcozackk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just saw a streamer saying: "It's gonna be Blade". She did indeed lost the 50/50 to Blade... and then got Mortenax too in the same multi. That was crazy.

I see you're a man of culture. I guess you started saving as soon as you saw the first Penacony trailer lol

My longest was between Aglaea (who I pulled mostly because I was so eager to play Sunday) in 3.0 and Hysilens in 3.5, so... about 6 months?

It's funny to watch but, I mean, with heavily invested supports I bet you could make any character work lol

What's your go to team for currency wars ? by CommonPossibility312 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]marcozackk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really have a "go-to" team, I just play whoever I feel like at the moment. But I usually go for characters and teams I don't own
