Honestly as a teenager I used to be a Genshin Impact disliker, just to fit in with a crowd of those that also disliked it. I wanted to seem cool to them, I guess.
But now I'm an adult, friend kept showing their gameplay, and it's a free game. As a gamer I can't pass on a free game!
It gives Zelda: Breathe of the Wild vibes. I'm glad I stopped being so judgemental and learned to now always try something before judging because the game is very enjoyable after a very stressful day at work or when I'm about to fall into burnout.
I'm honestly still shocked for a free game you get this much quality. It has a story, development, soo many characters, etc. I always assumed it would just be boring, nothing fleshed out, etc.
So my advice to everyone is always: try something before judging it. This year that has been my biggest thing to go by. I have discovered so many things I actually like already purely due to this simple change.
