Genshin Impact (PC/PS5/PS4/NSW/iOS) - Open-World Action RPG - 2020

[Tomiko]

I'm loving this so far. Just finished the prologue while casually exploring along the way. Now I have to get my adventurer rank up more to progress.

[Takiwaki]

Controller is not working for me. Just crashes the game when I try to switch On pc. Any ideas?

[6souls]

Not a fan of the button layout on ps4, but I enjoy the game well enough that I got to adventure rank 11 before logging.

PS4 has has a selections in Settings > Other > Play co-op only with others ONLY on the PS4 Y/N? So, we can't take our saves to other platforms, but can play with others.

Sooo. Stupid question but for crafting to hit the sweet spot you want to press X. And then game doesn’t tell you what the prompt is for PC. I’ve tried 5x so far and guessed wrong each time. What is the secret sauce !?

[Drai]

you talking about cooking? i'm using mouse and kb and it's just a button below the bar you click

Its not a Keyboard button, you push the "Stop Square" icon on the screen with the mouse. Its just below the 'progress' bar, hard to explain, but once you see the big square universal "stop" button you'll slap your head.

side note: General tip: The "Time cook" stuff can be picked up at any cooking station, so feel free to shove a bunch of shit into that and pick it up later if you need too.

Edit: Also, playing it on PC now since it downloaded overnight... Really enjoying it, can't believe its a F2P Gacha game to be perfectly honest, only complaint is vertical camera movement is stupidly slow compared to horizontal and IDK how to fix it.
Edit2: OH, also, look for Breakable Rock faces. Theres are stone structures (easy to spot by the fact they look heavily cracked/crumbly), you can destroy them and find usually chests behind them.

Need to figure out how to change buttons on PC, the default layout is kinda bad.

I was surprised you cannot remap on pc in game, I just remapped my mouse and kb layout using its software.

[Stromgarde]

afiak it's not possible currently, I'm making do with an 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ which has its own remapping tool fortunately. But yeah, the UI is pretty bad period, to the extent it feels like whoever made the config menus didn't bother getting a native English speaker to proof-read it.

[6souls]

four different options to change the controller axis, though >.>

[Sumy]

well, it's good to see from the get-go that, at least the title screen, supports 5120x1440. Too bad I cant seem to get a registration code.

[6souls]

Only 5 star I've rolled so far, works nicely, though.

PS4 shows people on my fl already, so might not be a bad idea to put a list together since there is cross-platform play.

Decided to go 90 pulls and got Jean, +1 Fischl, Noel, and Xinque +2 Barbara & Xialing, the latter two will become +3 soon enough. Always wanted Jean and Fischl and since the latter is +1, keeps Electro going on the field while she's switched. Party is Anemo MC, Jean, Diluc, and Fischl. True, Venti would have been better than MC, but with 20 days, maybe I'll get enough to spark him. Party two looking like Chongyun, Barbara, Lisa, and Xialing.

Game desperately needs keybinding implemented though. You can see the Unity engine options, when you hold Alt-Left as the game starts up, so it's there. Also needs to let keyboard and controller imputs at the same time, because menu navigating is ass with controller, and you can't zoom back out, as the game auto-zooms you in sometimes. They do that, and this game is golden.

[Lucavi]

You guys are mentioning pulls. I know that in a regular gacha, you get some free ones and then the rest you pay for, but this game has a box cost right? How do pulls work in a gacha game that you physical pay for up front?

[Drai]

it's F2P, there's no box cost

[Lucavi]

Ah, so the pulls cost money then? Makes sense now.

[Tomiko]

Accepted Drai and sent a request to Kachiko.

So far I have Noelle, Sucrose, Venti & Fischl for gatcha characters. Fischl was the main one I wanted and I got lucky and on my 2nd Venti card pull I got her and 2x Venti. I'm not using Venti currently though because I don't want 3x Bow users in my party and my Traveler (anemo) has the PS4 Sword which has nice buffs.
