I honestly feel like this with Genshin Impact. It looks absolutely breathtaking and in 20 years it will still be beautiful. It runs on a damn potato. I personally like the lighting in a lot of scenes way better than the lighting in some titles that have path tracing.

I have always liked art styles in games better than realism.

In what world does Genshin runs well on a potato? Unless you have a different definition of potato than me. My Galaxy S10e can barely play the game, and it's not even slow enough to be called a potato

Might be talking within the context of PC gaming, where even a relative potato will beat the performance of a flagship phone.

Probably is, but I get why the other fella was confused by this.

Until right this moment I was under the impression that Genshin was literally just a phone game. Looks like I was wrong.

Haha, opposite experience for me! I don't play it but know some people that do, and I only ever heard about them playing it on their PCs, so it was their comment that made me realize it was also available on phones :P

Yeah i was talking about pc haha. I don't keep very up to date with phones and don't know much about their performance.

Sure, but I'm still going to say "fuck mihoyo"
