Genshin Impact From Exploration Fatigue to Inspiring a New Era of Chinese Game Development

The game “Genshin Impact” once attracted countless players with its vast world and rich exploration content. However, over time, many players found that their enthusiasm for exploring this vast world gradually faded. Finding the God’s Eye became a daunting challenge in their hearts, because these hidden God’s Eyes were cleverly hidden, causing players to feel frustrated during the exploration process. The game was originally designed to provide entertainment and relaxation, but now it has become a source of anxiety and stress.
In addition to the problem of God’s Eye, obtaining relics also daunts players. Players need to invest a lot of time and energy to find the right relics, which is an extremely difficult process. Relics are not only difficult to obtain, but also difficult to synthesize, causing players to face many obstacles during the game. This design not only makes players feel tired, but also seriously affects the overall gaming experience.
Looking back on when I decided to leave the game, I initially felt that “Genshin Impact” was still a good game, but I just lacked the patience to explore in depth. However, it now seems that the root of the problem lies in the planning of the game. If the game planner can pay more attention to the player’s experience and emotions, and make the game more relaxed and enjoyable, perhaps more players will be willing to stay in this beautiful world and continue to explore its mysteries and fun.
In fact, the Chinese game industry has proven with indisputable facts that domestic companies can also create amazing art design, music production, script creation, and those subtle but exquisite details. Such achievements are not only admirable, but also what many domestic game manufacturers do not want to see.
In the past, in order to cater to the needs of the market and players, many domestic game manufacturers tended to make remastered games, that is, simply copying existing game modes and only changing the skin. This low-cost strategy may bring short-term benefits, but it cannot provide players with real freshness and depth. The emergence of miHoYo broke this traditional game production model.
MiHoYo has invested heavily in game art design and attaches great importance to music production. They know that music is the soul of the game and can provide players with a more immersive experience. At the same time, miHoYo is good at creating fascinating storylines, allowing players to enjoy not only a visual and auditory feast in the game, but also emotional resonance.
These carefully designed details, seemingly insignificant, can significantly improve the quality of the game and the player experience. These details not only reflect miHoYo’s love and investment in the game, but also bring profound reflection to the domestic game industry.
MiHoYo’s success has inspired other domestic game developers to recognize their own shortcomings and potential. They are no longer satisfied with simple remakes and copycats, but are exploring new ways of making games to provide players with richer and more diverse gaming experiences. This is a major change in the domestic game industry and a positive impact brought about by MiHoYo’s success.
