can you believe it took me 3 days to quit genshin impact

unironically an incredibly polished game that shits on some triple a games ive ever played, the gameplay loop is really enjoyable and in some ways it even outdoes a lot of the games it draws huge inspiration from

but a stamina system THAT strict

(stamina system as in, your progression is gated/limited to a few activities unless you start tossing dollars in)

is really not for me

basically when you do a dungeon/domain, fight a boss or an elite mob, or some of these events you can trigger- the ONLY WAY TO receive any rewards is by spending resin- the game's stamina system

you have a cap of 120, and it regenerates 1 point every 8 minutes, it's 16 hours to refill it entirely

opening the chests after the activities i mentioned earlier cost 20/40/60 respectively depending on how much exp/items/the type of task it is

that's two big bosses, three elite mobs, or 6 small dungeon runs every 16 hours and i just kind of hyperfixate too much on games to really deal with that limit haha
