In Genshin Impact, the introduction of new characters has almost become a norm and is something that everyone wants. For gamers, this means more new content and events while miHoYo itself has the opportunity to increase its revenue significantly. That is also the reason why every period of time, Genshin Impact will introduce 5-star characters and new storylines.
It seems like it would be a win-win relationship for both publishers and players, but recently, there have been some opinions pointing out the harmful effects as well as the great impact of continuously releasing banners with many new characters. Accordingly, it is easy to see that the people most negatively affected will be gamers with limited budgets, or free players – accounting for a large part of this game.
The reason is because not everyone has enough money to own their favorite characters. For gamers who play for free, they will have to spend a lot of time saving and plowing through the gacha journey to find the character they want to own. This becomes even more difficult if you know that miHoYo always limits the amount of free resources in Genshin Impact very strictly. And if banners of new characters continuously appear, it also means that players have to wait longer to see the character they want to appear again. The waiting period can sometimes last up to months, or years, and this also means that it is difficult for these gamers to level up their characters.
Some players have also proposed certain solutions, such as having “annual” banners for all characters based on their birthdays, and possibly even creating a third banner. in game. This not only helps players solve the problem of finding their favorite character, but also helps them make specific plans on their journey to save resources. But up to now, miHoYo has not had any response to the above suggestions.
