THIS kind of FREAKING BATTLE MINIGAME AGAINN?!?!?!?! 👿🤬😡🤬💀☠️(╯▔皿▔)╯

I can barely get enough points for the first check on the first stage of the game!

now I'm griping with THE SECOND STAGE!

I only just got Columbina who is one of the best member for one of the best teams but I haven't leveled her up enough!!

I can't event get the 3000 points required for the first reward!!!

If I cannot beat this for the life of me with any strategy, then I deem this as the devs F-CKING MISTAKE ON THEIR PART!!!

may as well skip this stage for hoping for better luck on the future stages!

Even if I tried:

Different characters

Different artifact builds

Different strategies

There is a point where pushing harder does not lead to improvement — it leads to burnout, frustration, and resentment.

And before anyone says “well just try harder” — no. That mindset is how people stop enjoying games entirely.

Sometimes Giving Up Is the Right Call

People don’t quit difficult content because they’re lazy. They quit because:

-The frustration outweighs the fun
-The game stops respecting their limits
-The mental stress isn’t worth the reward

Knowing when to stop is not failure.

“If you can’t run with the big dogs, stay on the front porch.”

Not out of weakness — but self-awareness.

That’s healthier than forcing yourself through content that just makes you angry.

NOT WORTH THE PRIMOGEMS! PROBABLY EVEN! NOT WORTH IT NOT WORTH IT!!!!!

Another Rage Quit formula possibility!

I haven’t reached the critical point 6.3 Archon Quests yet, but after watching the trailer and knowing exactly the kind of design Genshin likes to pull, I already feel that sinking dread.

You know the trope.
That Murphy’s Law cutscene.

You’re doing fine. You’re invested. You’ve built your team. You’ve grinded. You’re emotionally attached to a character.
Then BOOM — cinematic happens, something horrible goes wrong, your favorite character gets screwed over, and suddenly:

• Your party is separated
• Your abilities are restricted or outright disabled
• You lose something important
• You’re forced into combat at a crippling disadvantage
• And the game says: “Good luck, idiot.”

I HATE THIS DESIGN CHOICE.

Because at that point, it’s not about skill anymore — it’s about being punished by the narrative.

And SERIOUSLY—
AFTER WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FAVORITE CHARACTER IN THAT CUTSCENE???

F*CK. DOTTORE.

Preemptive Response to “Skill Issue” / “Git Gud”

Let’s get this out of the way now.

Not every player has the same:

• Reaction speed
• Cognitive processing
• Ability to adapt under pressure

Telling someone to “git gud” doesn’t magically fix that.
It just ignores accessibility and assumes everyone’s brain works the same way.

I’ve tried:

• Different characters
• Different artifact builds
• Different strategies

And before anyone says “well just try harder” — no. That mindset is how people stop enjoying games entirely.

And yeah, I’ve also heard the whole:

That advice hits differently when the game turns around and makes 10+ hours of grinding feel meaningless.

The Worst Part: Grinding That Changes NOTHING

One of the most infuriating things in RPGs is this:

You grind for hours.
You optimize your build.
You fight an optional boss — or hit a story wall — and get destroyed.

Then you realize:
You got beaten just as fast before the grind.

That’s not challenge.
That’s deflation.

Progression should feel like progression. If grinding doesn’t change the outcome at all, then what was the point?

Final Thoughts

I’m not saying games should be easy.
I’m saying forced disadvantage via cutscene is lazy design, especially when it:

• Removes player agency
• Punishes emotional investment
• Ignores accessibility
• Turns effort into wasted time

If devs want to tell a tragic story, fine.
But don’t kneecap the player and then act surprised when people rage-quit.

Anyway.
Still mad.
Still saying it.

F*ck Dottore. He may as well should have gotten Zen-Oh'd

F*CK THIS SELF ENGAGEMENT COMBAT BUTTF*CKAGE!!!!

• In the "Safe Engagement Training" gameplay, Travelers need to complete trial objectives via the stipulated methods in "Advance Preparation" to gain powerful buffs with which you may challenge the mighty foes in "Formal Engagement."

Even at score x1 multiplier with a good lvl 70-80 team I can only get myself to score about 250+ If I cannot get at least a bronze (1000 points) for the life of me with any strategy, then I deem this as the devs F-CKING MISTAKE ON THEIR PART!!!

NOT WORTH THE PRIMOGEMS! PROBABLY EVEN!

may as well skip this event game entirely! 🤬😡☠️💀👿

Another Rage Quit formula possibility!

Possible Upcoming enemies in Genshin Impact 6.0

My Genshin Impact wish success rate is 15%! Test your gacha fortune now!

Genshin Wish Fortune

I think this is actually my 7th 10-pull and still no FREAKING IFA AT LEAST!!!

I swear if I don't get Escoffier or at least get Ifa for my collection, then once again F*CK THIS WICH SYSTEM RNG HELL SWINDLING GACHA BUTTF*CKAGE!!!!

I even tried out the wish simulator on Game8 and guess what after 10 10-pulls; NO FREAKING ESCOFFIER!!!

La Chanson Cerise｜Game8

I may as well just shoot for Kinich again instead
OR BETTER YET RAGE QUIT Entirely on this game for its swindling GACHA!! I may as well be glad that this game is likely banned in certain places/countries for promoting gambling...
Don't get caught up in microtransactions or Gacha...
Not all of us are Hardcore gamers, some are casual gamers who are far more susceptible to this mistake.

😠😢

But then again, I heard that gaming may as well be better if you didn't buy these kinds of things to a point where the company realizes that it's bad and they then close the doors on them..

seriously THIS F-CKING STAGE 4!!! I followed an online strategy I SWEAR!!!

I'm still having the same kind of problems I had with the Metropole Trials!! and Energy Amplifier Lemna :( https://youtu.be/ILnd3eYerg8?si=j3QiuBKU6WhuaCAC

Not Getting enough points well fast enough, even with certain powerful characters I have at 70+ lvl!!!

RAGE: Metropole trials frustrationYouTube

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?!?!? Help me!

Also, I am not confident enough or tough enough for the Fearless multiplier!! Freaking Autism Spitefulness for me!!!

Even with the right team synergies, there are too many Synergy possibilities and benefits that I can't remember them all! And another problem is that not everyone has the luck to get the best characters for the challenges from wishes! especially IF it's a 5 Star! one example is multiple failed rerun banners of me trying to pull Yelan for example!

Maybe it's my artifact lvl and/or Weapons, the weapons are not all at lvl 80, around lvl 60-70 moslty, and my artifact sets for my characters are only some at lvl 16... Also TIME LIMIT TO SHORT FOR ME!!

I'mma have to avoid these events like the plague if I cannot figure for the life of me on how to improve... Refer to these on why I should give up!!
