Wuthering Waves CBT Review
I've been playing PGR since its first week release on CN, and when WW was announced, i was thrilled. I was tired of the 9+ story of Genshin and the fact u have to spend hours plowing through chests for garbage around the map, and was hoping that WW would bring some difference.
Followed streamers on bilibili since the first hour of the CBT, and after 3 days, id say the WW CBT is very disappointing.
- Story, a strong point in PGR, is awkward and downright infuriating at times for the CBT. Not only is the plot boring like Genshin, it manages to make many characters highly unlikeable. I am only hoping that this story is like the CBT story of PGR, which was completely rewritten before the official release.
- World exploration. This really feels like playing genshin all over again. I wasnt expecting them to create something new, but the juxtaposition of genshin.mechanics to the WW world map is just not interesting at all.
- Gacha. Its rare to see gacha during first CBT, and yet kuro released it anyway and it is exactly the same rates as Genshin. If they dont change that, i dont think many PGR players will like to pay for the gacha.
- The worst part is that it feels like that the creators do not have a clear direction. The combat is cool as expected, but it has nothing to do with the games title, wuthering waves. This is also not reflected in the world building or mechanics used. Instead, we get renamed elemental combos and characters that do not look like they fit into a post apocalyptic world. Until the end of the story, no one has any idea what is going on in the story, and a lot of characters show strange animosity and wariness towards the MC. Gameplay also does not emphasize on their combat, but instead follows the genshin route to the smallest details. Even the Endgame Abyss is located on a remote island on the right corner of the map!
