  • What an incredibly superficial comparison.

    “BotW/TotK is the same because it’s an open world anime game with action combat.”

    “Tales of Arise is a seemingly open world anime game with action combat.”

    “Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is an open world anime (realistic style but still anime AF) game with action combat.”

    Blue Protocol is an MMO, with MMO gameplay and design philosophy that just happens to have a cel shaded anime aesthetic which has existed loooooooong before Genshin somehow ‘monopolised’ the style. Meanwhile Genshin is a mostly single player experience with some online elements. Look at your apples before you start calling them oranges.

    If anything, the article talks about the developers being surprised at how much of a casual audience the game attracted and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the exact same people that are comparing it to Genshin somehow thought they’d get the same experience out of a grindy MMO.
