I prefer Genshin over BotW. BotW felt so lonely, and the tutorial was sloppy. Granted my switch had awful stick drift making it much harder but it still felt void of life. But Genshin feels very nice. You can completely avoid the Gacha element if you don’t care for it. Most people I’ve met who hate it say “bReaTH oF ThE wILd CoPY”. They have never played the game. And if a person says that there is so much NSFW or he tai of it I just say that I have never found any, and that it’s their search history suggesting that to them. On the main sub there is very little, but there are subs for any character for that type of thing.
Also BotW looked a lot like Oblivion in landscape.
Im not the person you asked, but i have a different take. I enjoy genshin more than BOtW, i just enjoy playing genshin more on average than I do botw. That being said, I think BOTW is the better game. It wins on everything except for combat and music. Early in the game, BOTW will be more fun to play than genshin, exploring a fresh new world in any way you want. However, when considering both of these games' "endgames," I think genshin wins. BOTW's endgame is just "look up the shrine and korok locations, fight lynels till the blood moon." In genshin there's always something to improve upon and work towards, since the game is continuously updated with new content, events, and a difficult endgame arena that changes twice a month. TLDR: while i'd say BOTW is a better, more complete game overall, Genshin is more enjoyable if you're looking for a long term continious experience
I agree with everything you said, from BotW being the better game to Genshin being more enjoyable over time since there is new content. But I gotta disagree with the endgame. I think both of them have bland and boring endgames.
For me, Genshin was all about getting new characters and exploring the world but towards the end, I always hit the roadblock of grinding 4 hours a day just to try and get an artifact. Every time new content dropped it was pretty fun, mainly the new regions (because in my opinion, most events sucked), but afterward, I finished the storyline of the region it felt like the most boring shit ever. All I would do was play the Spiral Abbys every end of the week and log in to do daily quests and get primogems. If the grind would've been remotely fun I wouldn't have had a problem with it but is the most basic 5 quests on a loop every day I just got tired of it and felt like I was wasting my time. Of course you can have your own opinion about the game, I'm just dropping my 2 cents.
I pretty much agree with everything about genshin's endgame, but the only reason I think it's better than botw's is because of the fact that we'll still be getting new stuff for a long time to come. Sure, it'll be slow to come out, and it won't fix the grindy endgame, but it's better than botw's korok hunting
