• G-sync flat out has never worked with Genshin out of the box, because it has never offered true fullscreen.
• If you choose to get around it by setting windowed G-sync, you get PWM-esque flickering and poor G-sync performance.
• If you set -window-mode exclusive and Disable Full screen Optimizations, you get G-sync but get slow and buggy alt-tab that sometimes just freezes.
• If you choose to use said fullscreen hack, you cannot start it using the launcher, you must use a custom shortcut.
• With the fullscreen hack, you can't click any sort of shop/event link that leads outside the game into a browser. The game will freeze or black screen, have to Alt+Enter first into windowed.
• Setting Variable Refresh Rate on in Windows will randomly crash the game.
• Even worse, since update 2.0, even with the fullscreen hack nowadays you still need to Alt+Enter twice every time you open the game to get it to work.
• Game is hardlocked to 60Hz but the engine clearly doesn't have such limitations.

tabascosauzThe most hilarious part of advertising a gaming chair, aside from coming after the embarrassingly botched anniversary event, is that Genshin has always been buggy af on PC.

A pure, plain 60Hz monitor will still work fine, but I doubt those users buy gaming chairs. Truly, a collaboration of the world's most consumer-friendly companies, Mihoyo and Razer. /s

lemoncarbonateAlso I don't know if other players notice this too, but the horizontal and vertical mouse sensitivity are not consistent. The vertical one has noticeably less sensitivity than horizontal axis, so moving your mouse diagonally feels off, imagine moving your mouse 45 degree diagonally but the game register 35 or 40 degree. Is it because I'm playing on 21:9? I've no idea, but as an archer player this is really bugging me. I did asked MHY to give ability to set vertical and horizontal sensitivity separately since 1.3 iirc.

lemoncarbonateThis!
I set my monitor to 75Hz thinking that Gsync (compatible) will adjust Hz to 60fps like other games. But no, the game doesn't look smooth with 60fps + 75Hz. After months of not realizing I set my monitor back to 60Hz and noticed how the game looks so much smoother.

There are lots of performance issues in this game such as occasional stutters even with more than adequate hardware, higher PING than other online games, etc. Although I never face the other issues you mentioned. Lucky me?

MentalAcetylideI don't play it, but I can almost guarantee you this is because some dumbass with too much time on their hands thought it would be a good idea since monitors(especially ultra wide-sceen ones) tend to be much wider than they are tall. The only problem is they seem to have forgotten that nobody ever moves their mouse pointer from point A to point B in a perfectly straight line, so the scaling between the two axis is always going to be a pain in the ass when trying to manipulate the pointer with any kind of precision.

tabascosauzThe targeting in general is choppy and pepega I think. I have it even worse since I play on an Xbox controller, but kinda got used to it over time - only archer I use is Yoimiya and she doesn't really do charged attack. In the end I think I resorted to aiming for major adjustments and strafing for micro-adjustments, since strafing is much more precise. Bow aiming doesn't feel smooth at all because horizontal targeting feels like it almost "snaps" into place every degree or two and actively works against you.

tabascosauzI guess perhaps 75Hz is not too far from 60Hz? On mine the game is trying to reconcile 165Hz refresh rate with a 60Hz cap. Most of the buggy alt-tab/freezing comes from the fullscreen trick to preserve Gsync/Freesync (windowed G-sync is really headache-inducing). I guess I could manually set 60Hz when I play, but it's pretty ridiculous that we have to jump through all these hoops just for one game, on a 165Hz monitor.

People have always been asking MHY to step up to the 120Hz cap as per Honkai, or simply asking MHY to fix G-sync or implement fullscreen so they can stop having a horrible experience on 120/144/165Hz. MHY not only doesn't care, they actively made G-sync fullscreen worse post-2.0. While Genshin is not the only 60Hz-capped game I play, it's the only one that runs like absolute dogshit as a result.

Then there's the co-op netcode (LOL) and sporadically stutters even with G-sync............used to put up with it because MHY seemed like they cared about the playerbase, before 2.0. The recent anniversary backlash really got me pondering my life choices.

tabascosauzDOesn't seem like the stutters will be fixed unless 120Hz cap. The game is way too CPU-bound.

lemoncarbonatePerhaps, now I just set my monitor to 60Hz, Gsync (freesync) is on. The issues sounds bad, I'm glad I'm not facing that kind of issues. Hopefully it gets fixed later on.

Ferrum MasterI getting curios. Just few minutes to download and test it out too. I've only played on my T870 Tablet.
EDIT
I guess will keep playing it on a tablet :D. It is utterly not compiled with PC gaming in mind and they don't ever care.
