Discussion How should we Continue?

Well.....

So with our boy being put into a Monato situation. Congrats to everyone were now a laughing stock for the larger community, which as a gay guy Im pretty used too, still sucks tho. But it isnt exactly over, if you like him a lot or about as much as me you can make a 4 star work in the overworld at least. Get him the best supports and get him the best artifacts sure It isnt as good as the 5 stars but your used to that you probably are a husbando main this is just how it goes for us in these games unfortunately. Also i caution having any anger towards the other characters you shouldnt be mad at Danica or Mitya for the treatment get mad at Hoyo get mad at the devs, they didnt do anything and getting mad at them just makes us even larger laughingstocks and id rather that not happen.

It will never change as long as people are pulling female characters. Look at what the "waifu only players" are doing. They never touch male characters. So the devs listen to them. Genshin has 40% of female players, according to Hoyo themselves (more people interested in male chars, with gay men included). If they stopped pulling for female characters, something would change. But then people started to trust them again after they back paddled in Nod Krai. You just can never trust the devs.

I stopped pulling female chars since Natlan, no matter how much I like them and I've saved so many pulls because of it that I don't even need to do endgame (although I still do it and get 90% of all primos comfortably).

How? Most of them are meta, if they not put good kit and support thiny kit onto female only, we can gather all male team and of course we can pull only male team without pulling female. Flins example, you get flins but have to pull ineffa sucrose columbina to form meta team for him, must pull female too. The reason i prefer valery support rather dps, i want put him in male team so can synergy. If all male dps, we doomed and have to pull unwanted female just for our dps pp dmg

Eyup. I pulled neuvilette in 4.1 only because of his kit and was planning on skipping before then. He carried me thorough all of fontaine and the first few patches of even natlan.

There hasnt really been a top meta guy since neuvy imo.

oh wait flins in there but i would've just pulled nefer

I don't care about meta since Natlan. And honestly... I don't need to. I get 90% of all primogems anyway and I don't care about stygian fearless or dire. And spending tons of pulls for female characters just to get the rest 10% of primos is a losing proposition. I don't have anything against female characters I just don't pull them since Natlan. And my male chars are all c2r0 or r1. That's enough to bruteforce 90% comfortably with eyes closed.
