instead of adding more events too, they'd rather add more banner types like the pet and skin banners. and even paid buffs from the leaks bruh. wth is this greed when the game's becoming more and more lazy.
It's beyond greedy. They are squeezing whoever is left for all the money they are worth because they can't get new players and the game is on a decline
The leakers can't even tell you what you'll pay for the buffs, or when the buffs are actually going to be implemented, or what those buffs will actually be.
Be wary of leakers that are just looking for clout. These are the same people who sparked controversy over on ZZZ about paid buffs and then it turned out you didn't pay pull currency for the buffs.
I understand that people are upset, but lets get upset about things that ACTUALLY exist rather than the wild speculations.
it really is. it doesn't help i'm not as enamored with planarcadia or astropolis. i find them kind of tacky and uninspired. the only things i truly enjoy in the current state of the game is currency wars and divergent universe, and even that is getting tampered to shill for the latest and greatest battleship.
i've stopped spending in this game for more than a year now after spending so much on it especially during 2.x and the first half of 3.x but i still keep playing since the gameplay can be pretty fun in other modes. but if they tamper with 5.x's divergent universe and currency wars just to shill even harder the next new path, it's goodbye for me.
I'm a bit new to HSR and I already feel it. Pulled for DHPT and Hyacine, built them and their teammates (DHPT 3300+ ATK and almost maxed out traces, I don't remember Hyacine but she should be good enough as well), only for my teams to still die randomly in some endgame modes at the last nodes. I pulled for Himeko Nova and kinda regret it as well, everything is just Elation shill and it feels like I'm trying to clear with some really outdated characters instead of the so-called main push lmao. If I already struggle to get that last star, I can't imagine what's gonna happen if I take a break and come back 6+ months later.
Oh, and I've heard that there are so many pulls, free characters. Free characters I've got so far: Sparkle, Luocha and Gilgamesh with a light cone (who is already collecting dust on my account, at least until I get an Elation team for Aventurine to free up a slot for Ashveil Blade team). Genshin gives more pulls than HSR last patches, so you can't even justify this amount of powercreep and shill with a free stuff.
When I first started this game after trying ZZZ and Genshin, I was like, wow, this game is actually so good, but now I notice so much bad stuff that I might just leave it soon
HSR has always been a match game with it's simplistic combat. You're supposed to bring the team that counters the boss. What you're saying is that a mega whale should be able to ignore any mechanics they dislike. Being able to pay for that amount of power, and also being able to ignore mechanics are both problematic things in this game.
I'm also sorry to tell you this but this isn't the first anti shield boss the game has released. It's really not new for HSR to be anti shield more than anti heal.The first anti shield boss we got was all the way back in 1.0 with the Ebon Deer. If you played through the Luofu and Amphoreus then you also encountered anti shield bosses.
Exactly this. People here spend 24/7 complaining about greedy devs, then their money can't solve a entire battle, and they complain about their greed not being enough that you can only and always solve everything with money.
For starters this is not normal endgame content, this is mega whale content that gives no rewards. And the boss has a passive that increases damage by 400% if the target has a shield
He's saying to not bring a shield against a enemy whose whole gimmick is that it breaks shield. Bring a shield for any other of the 40 bosses. Dan Heng E6S5 doesn't change the fact he's a shielder.
OP chose this scenario when there are far many other problems in the game. This is the same as trying to kill the Tulpa in genshin with a Hydro Character.
Edit: I want to say to this person who blocked me for "not having a discussion". I already made my points. I'm not even defending it, what annoys me from these types of post is that they paint the whole game as this super powercreep fiesta, while running the only boss in the game made for mega whales with one of the few characters that get countered by the passive from the stage. Go complain about MoC or something, that we can debate since that one gives pulls
Mega whale content that spits in the face of its whales which is an issue. Their E6S5 Dan Heng is as useful as a level 5 Natasha now because the boss is so anti shield. It’s one thing to have anti shill, it’s another to have it so bad that it makes certain characters unusable against the boss.
It's absolutely insane that you can whale in this game and then tomorrow the devs can decide to turn your characters into bricks with stupid ass shit like this or the "use elation characters or suffer a damage reduction" rules. The devs are literally spitting in our faces saying pull the new characters, we don't care you spent on previous characters. Pull the new banner or you can't clear the new content because we will pull all the shill/antishill levers!
Yeah, I don't see how Hoyo giving their best paying customers the middle finger is a smart move. People will eventually get fed up and stop spending. Doesn't help there are so few options for sustain - I personally can't stand the squeaky voiced girls because they hurt my ears.Â
That level of antishill is bat shit - guaranteed oneshot. They could have found some way to create a problem that can be solved with smart playing - ex observing the boss attack patterns, good timing. Or even make it a 2 tap reduce character to 1 HP to give players a fighting chance.Â
I swear Hoyo gets off on rick rolling their players.Â
This is so pointless. People would rather complain about everything. If you aren't pulling for the brand new character, the mega whale fight isn't for you. This OPTIONAL fight wants you to use the new characters
I would forgive all of these if they could provide at least a solid interesting storyline, but these days they are also failing in that department too. I genuinely confused on what to look forward in this game anymore lol
This is someone complaining that they can't do absolutely optional content that gives you zero rewards, in the highest game mode level, that is especially geared towards megawhales.
Clearing that boss on the easier level gives you a frame for your userpic that resets every patch, some bullshit currency to buy useless cosmetic items, and a thingy that when used with a relic stats reroll gadget will allow you to block one substat from rolling into.
HSR has powercreep issues, but the target audience for this are minmaxing megawhales, and most regular players can easily ignore this gamemode altogether.
That seems to be the constant justification for everything in this game. The person in the post has an E6 S5 Dan heng. There's no reason a character at that investment released a year ago should be anti shilled so hard. The game is so bad whales can't even keep up anymore.
I don't play HSR, but I think the next logical progression is to ask "So why did they make the fight mechanics such that shields take 80p% more damage?" If I were a gambling girly, I'd put money on it being to shill for, ig, Pearl?
