why do people like genshin so much

no disrespect im just wondering why

For a lot of people playing on console there are not a lot of "popular" open world games. And since genshin's controlls are simple to learn and understand the game feels a bit laid back the graphics is also a big + on console

Because people like to spend money on anime video games. It's not sooo bad actually, but Genshin is waaaay overrated

It is a simple game with easy to understand mechanics, but in spite of that, it can have a great complexity. In addition the graphic style of the game is truly impressive, so it attracts many players, besides being available for free.

it's the characters bro, and also it's fun to play with friends.

because weebs simp over anime girls because they cant get a real gf

cuz its gacha system
freaaking pay to win

beacouse waifus are so insane man keqing simp

From people I have met, lot of them played Genshin for the characters. I tried it out cuz it was the hottest game everyone in my group was talking about. I use to play it for the grind and the power my characters were getting. I do not play it anymore

bruh genshin is so damn satisfying especially getting charaters I was so hype getting klee and the combat system is just immaculate mawh
