That looks basically like a Breath of the Wild clone. Is anyone expecting this game to be good? I don’t mind copying successful formats, devs do it all the time. But I don’t know much about this developer and if they should be trusted to successfully make a good game even with a successful formula.



What are your thoughts on it?

 

[Husky]

Thanks, I'd forgotten its name. I'm ready as heck to play this chinese knockoff.

Their other game, Honkai Impact (which just got ported to PC last month, I suggest checking that out), has some pretty high production values for a mobile game.

With 200 million registered accounts, esports tournaments, several full color manga (which has official translations), and a few animated shorts, it's quite the phenomenon.

The quality of 3DCG animation in their shorts is on par with Arc System Works (if not better) and puts Japanese 3D anime studios to shame. To be fair, maybe maintaining that level of quality for a weekly animated series would not be feasible.




So yeah I'm pretty sure Genshin will be another hit from miHoyo.

 

[Celcius]

I've been watching this and am possibly interested... I'll wait for final reviews though.

 

[sublimit]

So did anyone here got an invitaton for participation in the final closed beta for PS4? Beta starts July 2nd and i wonder if i can still apply in order to participate...

 

[Miles708]

Beta? Wasn't it an offline game?

 

[cash_longfellow]

It's an RPG with similar art style to BOtW..that does not make it a clone. I don't understand where people are getting this from. Because you can climb? Because the art? Because fall damage? Please explain. RPG battle system, multiple playable characters, no survival mechanics, etc....there is like literally no similarities except for the look of the game.

You can play solo or with others.

 

[DESTROYA]

Look like a very generic BOTW clone, it’s a little too anime for me.
Not that thats usually a bad thing in itself but I don’t know something feels off.

Looks interesting but the Chinese Dub is weird when you are used to Japanese Dubs for this style of game.

Why? They’re the same language.

This game character art style and dragons looks like things from Gran Blue.... There are slimes and enemies that seems to have been ripped off from Zelda, Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy in the game and most of the cenario looks straight out from any Tales of game with a BotW twist.... Even the assets like teleporters and stuff seems like things you see in a Tales of game... It is a generic game.



Also, the worst part..... It's a FUCKING GACHA:

It also has Japanese (and English) audio.

Definitely generic and a hodgepodge of different games, but I feel like BOtW fanboys are acting like it is more similar than it actually is.

miHoYo is a Chinese developer but they wear their Japanese otaku influence close to their chest. Their previous game even includes an option for a Japanese dub.

 

[Fake]

Already in the beta program. Now is all about get luck.

[Wonko_C]

Hope some of the cutscenes in the game are of this quality.

 

[cash_longfellow]

Pretty jealous that I didn't get into the beta on ps4

Well lets hope they announce a PS4 (and PS5?) release date soon after the Beta.

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

I wanna see how this runs on the Switch. Online.

 

[Saber]

Did they announced that already? Damn..I wish they picked me too.

Same, watched some streams and I wish I could try this game already

Yea, it started yesterday.

That is what I am hoping...release can't be too far out.
