Genshin Impact — six years later, Teyvat has become far more interesting than its hero
Genshin Impact has built a better world than the narrative structure used to tell its story. HoYoverse has created religions, languages, ruins, myths and political crises capable of sustaining years of theorycrafting, then routinely traps them inside conversations twice as long as necessary. Its best chapters still explain the loyalty: when a nation, its characters and its music finally converge, Genshin can deliver genuinely grand fantasy adventure. The Traveler simply deserved to become as interesting as the world they cross.
PROS
Exceptionally broad world-building
Regions increasingly possess distinct cultural and visual identities
A huge cast of immediately recognizable characters
CONS
Dialogue routinely takes far too long to communicate simple information
The Traveler remains oddly passive within their own story
