genshin copies from a lot of different games (botw, okami etc etc) and bakes it into a gacha system meant to rob people of money, in the end resulting in a game that's a little of everything and doesn't particularly excel at any of them. it's fun for a while, and being able to do combos with different elements by switching party members is a great concept, but in the end it's a free to play game and the drawbacks come in the form of a lot of pointless filler and gated lategame.
