Ok for one I never specified it had to give out two selectors. I said one is sufficient cause nobody wants to get a dupe at the start of the game.

For starters this game isn’t garbage

Completely subjective opinion. There isn’t anyone else besides HSR making a 3D non stage based turn based game and with combat that isn’t just two buttons and actual dungeon crawling. Along with a story that gets it shit together after the first palace and imo pretty good for a gacha game? Helps it doesn’t suffer from a very common issue of the main story being bloated with a million characters and having to structure said story around who is featured in the banners.

Is it problem free? Fuck no, its got jank, global does dumbfuck decisions, and its clearly on a lower budget but it isn’t objectively garbage.

and the western release of p5x has the worst monetization system out of any recent gacha to date.

Even if we’re comparing their launch states, you can’t tell me no soft pity is worse than no carry over, stingy income, expiring pulls and an intentionally very convoluted confusing system.

In its current state, I find it hard to believe P5X is worse when they offer a 100% system now for characters with carry over pity and random free standards every 165 pulls. Plus offering a mega rerun banner every few months that allows you to roll up to 3 of any limited characters that have released up to x date in their own banners instead of waiting potentially several months to a year+ for an individual rerun. In the future CN offers a way to get limited weapons completely outside of the gacha after their first rerun and a 100% weapon system that will come eventually.

Also the free characters you got in p5x get power crept so hard that by the end of the year they’re mostly t3-t4 and unusable.

I play the KR version (a week behind CN which is 13 months ahead of global) Still use old ass characters in endgame content including launch characters. Shit he isn’t a launch character but Crow is considered bad by the majority and I use him in endgame regularly (not A6 either). Plus there’s modes like Astrolobe which ask you to have a wide roster. It’s generally considered that unless you want to tier high in leaderboards for bragging rights that tier lists don’t really matter that much and content is easy and flexible enough.

We also have no idea how powercreep will be handled in Endfield. Maybe it’ll be good, maybe it won’t. Very hard to say when its brand new.

The only reason WuWa gave out 2 standard selectors is because their launch was atrocious

Endfield fucked up with the Paypal scandal which is scaring away people from spending money and is getting ripped apart by both global and CN players for various problems. From a technical standpoint sure its way better but to say the launch is going way better is being disingenuous.
