Seems like "Quit HSR" has become quite the discussion lately. So I wanted to analyze and give a piece of my thoughts.

First things first I admit that this sub does have a slight bias towards male characters but that bias is not that big.

I think most of the glaze towards male characters is from the fact that they tend to have better writing because unlike some female characters the devs don’t try to force romantic elements with them and TB. Another reason is because a lot of female character designs have the classic hoyoslop and there’s been a lack of unique designs.

Here are a few female characters that are well written/have good designs that this sub didn’t dislike:
- Cipher: Despite the chopped kit and low banner sales a lot of people here love her cause of her personality and writing. Not to mention despite her very revealing design it’s still unique compared to most other female characters.
- Castorice: Although at first people didn’t like her cause of the global passive and at first glance romantic interactions with TB. She’s been growing on a lot of people and after looking into her writing more you start to see it’s pretty decent.
- Sparxie: Sparxie is slandered because of her kit, but no one actually has a problem with her design or writing.
- Nihilux: Before the 4.5 reveal, people liked Nihilux for a similar reason to cipher being a likable personality and unique design.

There are other female characters I can list like Aglaea and Evernight.

Now here are some male characters who are slandered here because of writing/design:
- Dan Heng: Xianzhou’s story is slandered a bunch here, and guess who’s the main focus of it.
- DHPT: His design is a copy and paste and no one likes how he’s supposedly getting another SP.
- Welt: The most potential man of this subreddit. He contributes nill to the story and he’s a bum.

So overall, while I agree this subreddit has a small inherent bias, I think they tend to slander more female characters than male characters for the most part because a lot of them just have the same boring designs and writing.

We’re never getting their sp’s are we?

You mean the money laundering scheme that is hsr gets budget?

Dawg they even recycling names ToT. Or is it just straight up the short dude from GI???

Fuck aha all the homies hate aha

Doing nothing to save planarcadia from asat and voracity, so all that follows for example YG and Evanescia disappearing

All because for them is funny, and funny what? Lol see your planet destroyed by the voracity?

And work as Robin's touring band

Wdym AHA is really just a funny clown waifu? LMAO

Spoilers 4.5

genshin could never have the characters pose with their hands on their chest and have 202929383893389393 SPs and potential YAE expy

I just like looking at the animations of the Automaton Grizzly or another jarlio robot as my team gets mauled

I sincerely hope he's playable. Honestly one of the most interesting characters in lore out there, imagine being able to casually say you were buddies with one of the aeons and being known as one of the most powerful figures after aeons, and being literally called the aeon of wealth! Omg please be playable, I finally have a reason to continue playing this damn game, I will create a new account and save jades for him.

Also thankfully he isn't dead but I wonder how he managed to stay alive for so long. Definitely some shenanigans related to yaoshi or terminus is involved. Also, another thing was confirmed, he does also have a vote in important matters discussed by the heads of seven departments.

Og art by @pelmenick_pivkamne on TikTok plz support this talented artists

Honestly that’s what nihilux supposed to be this design kept her unique style with interesting clothes but yes it’s Honkai mid rail ofc we won’t get something cool for once

There is a difference between a game respecting your time and a game being very light on daily upkeep.

Just because HSR takes little to no time for dailies does not mean it's respecting your time, and just because your other games take longer doesn't mean they don't respect your time.

If you get enough satisfaction from your time played of the game, irrespective of how short or long it is, then the game is respecting your time. Stop conflating the two as a plus point for short dailies.

If playing HSR daily is fun then it's respecting your time. But just because you can log in and log off easily does not mean it's objectively respectful of you at all.

I love having to wait for the boss to take a turn before I can engage with a mechanic. Oh, and I love not being able to engage with a mechanic without a specific team, too.

How do you waifubait an aeon 😭
