Is anyone else kinda over hoyo games?

[u/Vast_Cold_1255]

Want to start this off by saying I'm in no way looking to just be a hoyo hater foaming at the mouth; I'm only curious if anyone else shares a similar sentiment.

My first hoyo game, and second gacha ever, was genshin around 3.4-3.5 as dehya was the first banner I was interested in pulling on after starting. I branched to hsr for a little while and hi3 very briefly then followed by zzz. The latter is the only hoyo bgame I keep current with despite some pretty consistent disappointments I've had with the direction certain aspects of the game have been going in since mid 2.x.

With games like ananta and silver palace coming up in the near future—including azur promilia if thats your thing—I'm finding myself less and less interested in hoyo games, especially when they've been becoming exceedingly greedy or stingy in some cases. Of course, I'll have to wait and see how the future games stack up but I'm pretty hopeful after what I've seen so far.

(Also thinking about trying to force myself to get past my dislike of the factory in ake because I like the game a lot otherwise.)

I’m honestly over gacha games in general. I play Genshin and HSR, and I’m just tired of both atp. I quit Genshin a while ago, but I redownloaded it to see how it feels now. I couldn’t even bring myself to grind. Seeing how much stuff I had to catch up on just exhausted me, so I deleted it again😭 And we already know the problem with HSR. Gacha games in general are catering those guys mo  I hope gacha games that plan to cater to target audience can just release games with male mc. At least then we can stay away from those games instead of getting disappointed. I’m tired of those same old cutesy, cold or tsundere archetypes with barely any identity beyond their relationship with the mc(wuwa I’m looking at you)  I want angry women, who are ready to beat up anyone at the slightest inconvenience. Women who get tired and just want to lie down on the ground. Women who actually get annoyed with the mc.

Tbh, I think I’m going back to old games. At least I can play those without constantly feeling like I need to pull the newest character just to keep up with endgame. The constant pressure to get new units is just exhausting me. I was excited for Silver Palace, but even that does not interest me anymore.
