Genshin Impact
Genshin Impact, développé et publié par miHoYo, HoYoverse et Cognosphere, est sorti le 28 septembre 2020 sur PC, Android, iOS, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 et Xbox Series X|S. Ce jeu d'aventure et de rôle (RPG) en monde ouvert, propulsé par le moteur Unity, plonge le joueur dans un périple à travers Teyvat afin de retrouver un frère ou une sœur perdu et d'obtenir des réponses des Sept, les divinités de chaque élément. L'histoire évoque des dieux élémentaires ayant autrefois offert la civilisation aux humains avant que le monde ne se fragmente sous l'effet de la corruption et de la cupidité, les dieux choisissant depuis Celestia les dignes pour préserver l'équilibre. Les environnements, aux cultures et ambiances variées, mêlent ruines d'un empire technologique interdit, tours gothiques médiévales, pavillons de jade et bois de sakura.
Le titre a reçu un accueil critique globalement favorable, avec un score Metacritic de 84, un score OpenCritic de 80 et une note agrégée de 81,70. La presse a salué la portée du projet, Gaming Age y voyant une œuvre participant à dissiper les stéréotypes négatifs sur les développeurs chinois, tandis que PlayStation Universe relevait que le jeu gratuit offrait davantage de contenu que nombre de titres payants. Certains joueurs regrettent toutefois la présence de bugs non corrigés entraînant des micro-ralentissements constants.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Genshin Impact is part of a wave of titles from China that is slowly eroding the bad stereotype that Chinese devs are devoid of creativity and skill. While the initial comparisons are there, Genshin Impact does go beyond to distinguish itself…now if only the gacha rates and the free primogem are better I would have no hesitation recommending the title. »
« Genshin Impact provides you with more content as a free to play game than most full-price titles do. With so much to offer, you can easily get lost in its lush world, fun and exciting combat, and deep exploration. Genshin impact is easily one of the best surprises of the year and should be a model for how future free-to-play titles should be constructed. »
« Genshin Impact is here to stay. MiHoYo has just released a title that is likely to change everything for free-to-play games. What the game offers today is an incredible experience, with so much content that there are not enough hours of the day to experience it, and all of it is completely free. »
« Genshin Impact is an amazing open-world adventure that draws heavily on both its Breath of the Wild and anime inspirations to create something truly special. Even if the gacha model introduces some undesirable level grinding deeper in, the excellent combat, addictive exploration, and beautiful world make this one of the most exciting games I've played all year. »
« Genshin Impact is a well above average RPG to which we will dedicate many hours, but that gets lost in a monetization system typical of the gacha genre that sometimes demands too much from us. However, the free to play experience is wonderful offering us a beautiful and colorful world that can boast an absurdly good character design and a story capable of keeping us hooked. »
« Worst-case scenario, Genshin Impact will cost you a few hours of your life. Best-case scenario, it will be your surprise hit of the year. There are zero reasons not to at least try this title if you are a fan of action RPGs. »
« Despite lacklustre multiplayer and a frustrating paywall to unlock characters and items, Genshin Impact is a brilliant experience with hours of fun-filled exploration. It also has Paimon and she is perfect. »
« Anime roleplaying game with high production value and a great entertainment factor – and all of that for free. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« Despite its popularity, Genshin suffers from extensive unfixed bugs that lead to constant micro-stutters. Even when troubleshooted and eventually solved by navigating through the game's faulty settings, Genshin suffers from its reliance on gacha mechanics and through its excessive ease of play, despite a moderately decent story and graphics. »
« Don’t play this if you value your time or money. The devs care more about monetization than improving the game. Visuals and animations feel outdated, quests and events are boring and repetitive, and the writing feels artificially stretched out to waste your time.Power creep is terrible — new characters quickly make old ones useless, while the game gives very little currency, making it extremely hard to get new limited characters without spending money. (1 guaranteed limited 5★ every 4 months) »
« overall is good but lately the powercreap is real, and it feel like this game start to more greedy. »
« adding up to the new **** ASS VERSION wallahi ive never seen such greedy as game js go to hell hoyo »
« These greedy ahh devs removed the game from ps4, They constantly are taking a lot of storage on any device and now don't even mention it this is so trash behaviour running from the hate and ignoring it SO KEEP THIS GOING UNTIL THEY IMPROVE SOMETHING »
« 0 reward, devs don't listen, not rewarding gameplay, no motivation to keep playing, other games from the same game company offer you WAY MORE, and that's the lightest way to put it, don't waste your time on that, I don't recommend it, try HSR, way better then Genshin impact »
« I used to enjoy playing the game but now it became literally a p2w game, hoyo is being too greedy and the rewards are getting less and less , it doesn't even give us enough pulls for one limited character in last versions and from the new special program we can't even dream of getting a five star with only 60 pulls, although they are featuring 2 new characters with meta characters reruns that's too much hoyou do something about it »
