Which is better if you like looking at large-breasted anime waifus, Honkai or Genshin? I would say I'm asking for a friend but that would be a lie, I don't actually care, I'm just trying to stir some drama between the fanboys on either side because it's late on Friday, I'm stuck in an interminable meeting, I have a headache, and I like to watch the world burn.

Neither?

I thought it was Stellar Blade?

Also, Stellar Blade drama is delicious and way more intense than Honkai vs Genshin.

Well I'm not a fanboy but I've tried both.
For me the deciding factor would be the different combat system so I would pick Genshin if I wanted to put some more serious time into one of them.
While I don't hate turn based combat its not a fan of mine either so if I have the option to choose then I wont.:oops:

That being said I wouldn't play those games if all I wanted is looking at 'cultured' stuff since I have Nikke for that.:laugh:

Yeah, I tried it on a whim a few months ago and I've actually been enjoying it surprisingly.

I mean I do like turn based JRPG's so I guess it's not all that surprising.

Like I said, I barely know these games exist. I just know there are a whole bunch of East Asian gacha games featuring cute girls, and I get bombarded with ads for them because I like anime and algorithms are stupid. Also because I'm subbed to /r/animewallpapers because I have a thing for cheeky winking anime girls (personality > booba), and of course that sub is full of girls from those games.

THAT'S YOUR JOB

Genshin is literally the "bigger, longer and uncut" (got the reference?) between them.

March 7th best girl though.

In my head, with an accent.. this is what you would call a white guy.

So close, yet so much disappoint.

I am a cracker by the way.
