True you don't see much Himeko besides some Vermilion Knight even that's scarce her damage output isn't as huge as HoF or even Spina Astrea, but you can make her work. Oh and trust me you need at least one Himeko when you need to hit at least 25 combo, but you're too strong and can't maintain a flow because everything just get one hit, at times like that man do I appreciate my Himeko whom I kept at lvl 50
In the first chapter and the second to last mission, the mechs were such a pain, they were so goddam slow, especially when you start moving, it just built up and when you fought with them on close range enemies that you kinda need to move to, that annoyed the heck out of me, especially the second one
Yeah, Its funny how he says "genshin has better graphics", both games has good graphics (would even say Ult animations are way better in honkai but that's just my point of view)
Honkai is just way more lewd. You even saw the female glorious treasurey golden hole through the panties. Well the split atleast. Honkai is way more lewd meanwhile Genshin is barely lewd except for Lisa.
Agreed. If someone doesn't like a game, they need to move on instead of comparing it to other games and then going as far as making excuses as to why their comparison should be okay.
The amount of storage they take is similar, but as a mobile user who plays Genshin and Honkai, Honkai Impact takes more space from me. But it honestly depends on what you've been doing in-game. The reason why Honkai takes more is because I prioritize it. I haven't played Genshin in weeks so I've been missing updates. But in PC, I can guarantee Genshin takes more.
Yep. Honkai is like, "look at here! We have depression, depression, and uh... Depression!" While Genshin is more low-key (kinda, in some scene/quest atleast)
@@WAVE00799the depression is there, it's just usually hidden in the archives, artifact descriptions, character story, etc. I tried to avoid it, but a part of it blasted me in the face after the 4.2 archon quest
Just depends on the person and what they prefer when it comes to gacha games so for me and my friend Genshin is better but for others that may be different y’know? So neither are bad or good; just equal
@@evilmiyoho6742 just GROW UP bruv ....this @mayank person is a good example of how to respect people's opinion. Stop being a creature with 90% of superior complex for all the time
Something I don’t see anyone mentioning are the events. Gameplay wise: Genshin is very limited due to its forced adherence to the perspective of the traveller. Everything you do in Genshin is in the third person and is unable to be changed. In Honkai, they’re free to make as diverse a game mode they want (as long as the character are the same as in-game). Last update we had a game mode close to PvZ and now we have fall guys. Events story wise: reiterating my statement from earlier, Genshin is forced to stay stuck to the traveller’s storyline. No event can come back the same way after each release. Plus crucial story plots for certain characters motivations are locked to these specific events. Honkai, on the other hand, can use any character it wants to make a story because of the multiverse. Plus there is a literal completely separate storyline spanning several events that are re-running with their only changes being rewards. I hope you like my endless rambling essay comparing two games made by the same company. ~ sincerely a traveller and a captain.
@@anameig9332 did they have chibis though? All seriousness, the two games have 2 different settings with two somewhat different goals in mind with story. Genshin is forced to be stuck with the traveller and (even though it isn’t a truly terrible thing) you only can get so much variation in look without breaking style.
On the downside tho, as a honkai player reading through dialogue and texts just feels so much more like a chore, considering that they don't rely on animation character speaking and mostly the players imagination (like reading a novel sorta). While genshin dialogue just feels more lively bc we got to see the actual characters talking real time and interacting with one another (idk it's hard to describe). But atleast honkai have a skip button tho
As someone who plays both... I somehow like honkai better, it's just that you start liking all the characters because you've got the time to get to know them properly Edit: Didn't expect it to blow up like that-
You saying as if you don't get that in genshin, its just that you need to also play the events, but from what i saw its the same for honkai too so they are quite equal in this terms aswell
@@Vedhon But in honkai, it's focused on the story of three girls and their journey, they stay. In genshin, there are so many characters, of course they are not all playing a very important part. And the events... I don't know. Yea, with them characters are more memorizable, but it's still not the same. The main story doesn't focus on them, what means, if you aren't interested in characters in the first place, you might never know more about them (Hope my english is readable)
@@X-dream exactly you only focus on three girls, because they are the main characters, in genshin you focus on aether/lumine in fact even the events build up their characters a bit too
@@Vedhon Not really. In honkai, even the side characters are important because there are only few of them, and they come back once in a while (RIP Himeko) but in genshin... If you want to use the events as an example, we don't get to know to much about their personality in the events. Also not the main story. They are just a replacement of the traveler, or us, a little bit more than in honkai we, the captain
@@X-dream if you are saying characters don't get much development in the events then you are either not playing them at all or not paying any attention to them at all
World and Graphics: Genshin (Ofc Open World) End Game Content: Honkai (ER,Abyss/Superstring and Memorial while Genshin only have Spiral Abyss) Story: Honkai (Because of one thing they are not afraid to kill a Characters to progress the story unlike in Genshin Because of the profit and Community outraged) Gacha: both are worst (Genshin has one of the worst rate and 50/50 you need atleast 180 wish to get the guarantee specially in the weapons banner. Honkai on the other hand got the most expensive pulls but the good part is you only need 100 pulls for the Character banner to get guarantee and no 50/50 while the stigmata and weapon banner is quite ok) Powerscaling: Honkai ( Honkai Impact powerscaling is more powerful than Genshin. A single Herrscher might solo Teyvat) Gears and Weapon: Honkai ( Farmable Weapons and Stigmata with Gacha that always guarantee to get a 4 star Weapon or stigmata in every 10 pulls meanwhile in Genshin you will have to Face RNGesus itself to get a better artifacts and Weapon) Character Designs: Honkai (better Character designs overall unlike Genshin who have to follow a strict CCP Law) Combat System: Genshin ( Because of the Elemental reactions and didn't base on meta unless you play in abyss) Reading Materials/ Manga: Honkai (Genshin only has 1 manga while Honkai got more) Anime adaptation: Genshin (the First Hoyoverse Game to receive an anime) Music/Concert: Honkai ( Far more better music and also Honkai Dream Euphony is one of the best Hoyoverse Concert i ever heard) Community: Honkai (Chill Community unlike Genshin who become more toxic over time like Giving Death Threats to the VA and always think that they are always right) This is my opinion for a lvl 88 captain with 4 years of gaming experience and a AR 60 Traveler with 2 years of experience..
Genshin is better than you think, this comment makes it sound terrible and for Honkai there was an update that deleted my acc before I even started PLAYING (I made and acc and did a pretty basic playthrough) plus there's no Eng VA's as far as I know and it gives me a headache listening to JP and Chinese
@@Ryleigh_Jade.06 and also JP Va is far more superior that English VA.. because i watch anime and sometimes some of my Favorite VA are in the game too.. the Only English Va in Genshin i like is Zhongli's English VA..
I mean, honkai is also just long text or characters talking to each other for half your playtime while genshin story for the most part just sits in the corner for like 95% of the game like any good video game story, let's just say genshin story knows it's place while being good enough to be novel whenever it does get to shine. While honkai is like Jesus Christ let me play the game for God's I don't care let me just hit stuff please I beg of you stop wasting my time with stupid ass cutscenes and annoying ass main character please for the love of God stop being an anime and start being a video game.... Sorry about that
gonna be completely honest, I love both games, but one issue that they both have is how clustered the events are for newer players. Honkais elysian realm is an absolute HELL for new players. not because of the play style, but because you can't enjoy the story being told. The story won be over though, as complicated as it is I'm all for it. especially Mei and kiana reuniting.
coming back from just finishing act V of sumeru, i can tell they are definitley improving. act V is quite long but i was rlly invested and didnt get bored at all.
Bursts like (sucrose, yae) which HAVE to target the nearest enemy are my bane. They always target that isolated enemy behind you instead of the group of 4 in front of you.
@@jonumine6250 same for venti, that’s why I use kazuha, instead of aiming the middle point of the enemies, just shot the blackhole at a small grp of enemies, and leave the others free
For the Valkyries, on some accounts it takes me to soft pity to get them. I got Senti and Flamescion in 30 pulls together, grateful and all. Now I'm trying to get flamescion gear about 50ish pulls in, only got her weapon and a stigmata. Everything else is off-rates.
I honestly prefer Honkai. Why? Because I played it before Genshin and has nearly gotten all Valkyries. Also because it's easier to get crystals and grind for mats. Also the Anniversary rewards are amazing..I just can't get enough.
The anniversary event is fire, the thing that genshin can never do, the rewards in honkai thicc fr, in genshin kinda petty. But idc the could've done much more than just throwing primos at us
Everything is up to preference. If you like the full on anime-style and not the 3D style, that's a you thing. That doesn't mean that Honkai is better (OR WORSE) than Genshin. Both games are amazing, it's just up to players' preferences.
@@ChoiShi0822 I didn’t say honkai is better, I actually quit honkai. All I said was that the scenes are. well I’d say some, we’re maybe, yes, better. It’s just more detail and I don’t think that’s much of a me thing if it’s not from preference, and just the matter of the detail and animation. I still prefer genshin cut scenes and that’s a me thing.
@@ChoiShi0822 Just a note, but Honkai's cutscenes are 3d. They're animated in engine, with a bit of flair added that isn't usually in the base gameplay. Same as Genshin. The only one that I can remember not being in 3d the whole time, was Because of You. Which used an old anime art-style and film boarder for a portion of it, for stylistic and thematic purposes.
When it comes to the storylines, it's not a matter of which one is better. They're two completely different stories, which means they'll each garner the attention of very different audiences. If more people don't like Genshin's story than they do Honkai's, that doesn't make Genshin's story bad, it just means that a majority of people just aren't into that plot type. Doesn't mean there's anything wrong with it.
5 months later, came to say there is no way you can compare both games in terms of story. Honkai has a lot of mangas, a complicated story that has a ton of pieces, and a lot of character development. Meanwhile, genshin can have good moments, cannot compare to what honkai already achieved.
@@haseebbarya8294 I'm saying, while sure it can be good, the set pieces for all stuff in honkai impact have already been placed, like a complicated story slowly revealed while progressing, and some others are scattered in mangas, as much as i know, genshin didn't and will not achieve for a long time, maybe a bit shorter now that the main plot is done, but still.
i don't know about you but sumeru's archon quest is the best one out of all the chapters and it's not even finished yet. I'm still looking forward to that first playable character death where xiao could've had a great death moment
gettimg characters in hi3 is cheaper, but building them is very expensive, because their signature kits are often locked behind gacha. hi3 is exepensive, while gi is time consuming
Depends on the character some characters will be ok with craftable weapons and stigmatas since they dont need thier spefic gear you can if you want but some dont need em specially since some supports gets by craftable stuff.
Not all of the time, majority of the older characters or average S rank characters stigmata sets are in universal mirage shop to be farmed. Then you have special S ranks like Vii-V where you get a stigmata box, so you only need two of their stigmatas and weapon. And there's always budget options for DPS characters, it's the supports you need to work on first.
you don't need their original stigmata just use handel for lightning dps willows for ice dps elysia for physical dps for fire dps you can use leeuwenhoek and thales and almost stigmata you need for each attribute already in foundry Edit : the stigmata i said is already in foundry and can be create if you have enough material
Also I want to add, genshin sell you the world of teyvet. We don’t really get to see the world of honkai outside of trio eyes. While genshin we get too see a bunch of small details.
That’s because that’s part of the purpose of the games. Genshin is literally an open world, so they have to build up the world and allow you to explore while also giving lore on what happened in the past, lore about the current time, ect, while honkai is NOT an open world, so they don’t need to do any world building. Plus, it would probably be confusing since there isn’t necessarily just a set place/world in honkai. They’re constantly moving around, and a lot of characters have different stories in different settings. In conclusion, I don’t think you can compare the two games based on world building lol, sorry for the rant
Honkai and genshin are really different games so it's hard to compare them but about the story thing i think genshin story is extremely good and it's going very well and i can say the same thing about honkai, but genshin it's a fairly new game with 3.2 coming out in some days and honkai's 6.1 just released with the story having 31 chapters for now (i think it was 31) so honkai has far more content and they had more time to work with the story But we can all agree that the best thing about these games are the design, especially character designs on both of them, an example is nahida and the vodka twins, they have really unique and pretty gameplays, with nahida creating a palace with her ult and being able to interact with material and npcs in a completly different way, and the vodka twins having different attacks, animations and skills when both lylia and rosaliya are on the team
@@anosvoldigoad1618 yes is obvios who is the more popular but that does not make a game better, in the time genshin has right now honkai lore was already incredible, genshin story is just too slow
Depends on the preference of the player. If one prefers a limited cluster of characters with the plot that focuses on the development of said characters and a very detailed development of secondary characters too, more recurrence of said characters, a dynamic combat and doesn’t mind the lack of an open world, then honkai is the game for you. If one prefers more a world building focused storyline, a wider number of characters to see and get, a less intrusive protagonist, a storyline partly explained and partly hinted by scattered hints (books, artifacts, items, character lines), a wider, amazingly beautiful world design, more grind (artifacts), a less dynamic and varied combat play but with more elemental reactions, then Genshin is better for you. The things that one might consider downsides of a game, might be the point that makes another like that game, and viceversa. And some just appreciate both, because we play each game for a different reason. Edit… I shouldn’t write an essay at 1am with a fever… 😢
Okay, I'm a honkai veteran, and I almost have every character, and I don't have a SINLGE full set for one of my S ranks. I have most of the characters though. Got lucky with Herrscher of Human: Ego and have an ice dps! F2P is the best way because you work harder to get just as good as everyone else! 4 years of playing and I love it. I also started playing Genshin and I love it. I'm only AR 24, but I have all Mondstat, Liyue, and 3.1 Sumeru Statue of the Seven unlocked! Got lucky with standard pulls and got a 5 star in my first 2 pulls, but it was skyward pride. My nahida pulls AR saving up, and I love both games. I can also make my friend F2P no more!
I think Honkai is a bit better when it comes to drop rates Like the one for a 5* character in genshin is 0.6% (0.3% for guarantee) Wheras honkai it's 1.2% I think And for artifacts/Stigmata, stigmata do the same thing and the only possible bad thing is affixes like PSY resistance. (Which are rerollable without having to get another one) Wheras in genshin, you have to do tons and tons of rerolling for a decent artifact even with a 50/50 chance of being on set. Ik my pfp makes me look biased, I started in genshin and then went on to Honkai because of burn out
I find it weird finding people opposite of me, I started genshin first and have played it since the start and afterwards decided to play honkai but got burn out and bored after playing it for like 5 days. The only reason why I continue to play honkai is because of elysia
It's 1.5% actually and it statistically lowers the chance when you approach closer to pity Stigmata and weapon banners are a real pain tho most of the time I got dupe off rates Personally hi3 expansion supply is GG ez I usually got character card at 75-98 pity but focused is real suffering though like I mentioned Genshin gacha is shit I only get early twice, and lost 9 50/50s out of 10. All of that still can't get jean and tighnari. Then there's some players who always wins 50/50 Weapon banner idk but I did got homa from it I'm happy. They didn't need set 3/3 for pity though just 2 is enough of a scam
When it comes to the story I think its mainly just your preference. The way I see it, Genshin's story is more world based and its lore focuses more on the world building than the actual characters. But you can learn more about the characters it's just that you'll have to dig into side stuff and not just the main story. As for Honkai Impact, its story is more character driven as even the side characters have their moments to shine. So it really just depends on what kind of stories you prefer and this is also just my take on how their stories are like.
I think that’s mainly up to personal preference, but in my opinion, honkai has better music. With the trailer music for characters, animation music, boss theme music or even just background music when you’re playing the story can either get you to bop your head or just start crying lmao, genshin has more traditional music, this is just my opinion though
I will say that genshin's story is easier to get into rather than honkai, I forget what chapter I'm on because I stopped playing honkai a while ago, but I'm like maybe 18 chapters in? And I have no idea what the story is about.
The main question is do you skip dialogues if you dunno the honkai story then your skipping dialogues and well reading the manga helps since honkai cant fit everything in the game.
@@scarletrose8766 It probably would but I don't think I'll read it since I would prefer the game to tell the story, plus its hard for me to get into manga or even books in general unless I physically have it, which I'm assuming honkai doesn't have a physical release. I'll probably just look up a summary video instead, and just stop when I've reached the point I am in game.
@@lordlyka68 there is the honkai chronicles that might help theres the introduction then the life of both mei and kiana (dunno if they made any other chronicles just yet)
@@guy.1 I still dont have my senti so im focusing on saving up for ai chan i dont have enough for both currently i need to get my story truckin for more crystals i have HoF so imma need Ai Chan regardless
That's how it meant to be, you don't really want a fetching and walking sim quest do you? That's why genshin is not suitable for people that has less patience or does not like to read
@@tridon7327 can't do the abyss and already finished all the hangouts and story quest but they are pretty boring and I barely do world exploration bc it's extremely boring. Yeah it was a mistake to say they leave us with nothing but they leave us with nothing interesting to do after the archon quest.
@@flasherzoom7750 story quests, world quests and exploration are all fun for many people. Don’t say they aren’t interesting just because you don’t like them. That’s only you. I for one think that exploration is the best facet of this game.
Majority, I would more prefer Genshin but still, both of them are actually very good too. They had their own charms in their own way but then again, I think I love Genshin more since I'm so in love with the characters inside them. Though, for now, I still laying in waiting for Honkai Star Rail
Say what you will about both games, I’m just glad that there is no *50/50* system in Honkai, you’re 100% guaranteed the character you want in their banner when you reach soft/hard pity.
Lets just say both have their own specialty and equally great cuz people have their own taste and we need to respect them...dont need to be such childish and talk shit about one another over a game
Lol A post honkai oddessy which is one of honkais open world part has a playable male and while its part of the story you get to play another male character in honkai. Just saying honkai do be letting you play some dudes just not many.
First genshin visuals compared to honkai are actually bad the very 1st point of world and graphics is that world wise exploration genshin wins but graphics and visuals wise honkai wins. So i do say both get a point on the 1st part
I don’t think it’s fair to compare the 2 games, they are VERY fundamentally different on PURPOSE. One is not objectively better or worse than the other because they are striving to achieve different things.
from my experience, honkai's gacha system is more forgiving than genshin's because 50/50 doesnt exist. it's just that the ceiling for hard pity is raised (to 100 instead of genshin's 90, which is fair game considering how generous mihoyo is with crystals)
Both games are great in their own right. To say which is better doesn’t really mean anything other than a preference. Both are beautiful forms of art. Created by this awesome thing called Mihoyo
Agree , example ER character full of death FlameChaser member(real Mobius and real Griseo status still unknown, Fu Hua and Kevin alive, and the rest is dead). But still they are playable (even though Kevin is just Will of Stigmata playable for temporary/one time in story)
They are never gonna remove your ability to use dead characters that be stupid cause if that happens its stupid you have a lotta dead people in honkai not gonna drop names but theres a lot of em.
Almost 400 days honkai player And almost 700 days genshin player. Here and still counting Plays honkai 3-5 hrs a day Plays genshin less than an hour a day
Your friend probably below 400 days of playing. I used to play like that too. If your friend tries honkai, farm gears and manage to adopt the complex gameplay, he might focus the action on honkai.
@@inari.gaming i think i would play several hours too after breaking through from masters to exalted. The competition is extreme and everybody wants to be on top lol
I started Genshin first, now Honkai is my favourite game. I've never won a 50/50 in Genshin I've played over a year however in Honkai I get characters in one ten pull enjoying Honkai more, I just can't seem to like Genshin much anymore 😭
In my opinion, Genshin's story is AMAZING. I've never played Honkai so I'm not saying it's better, cause I wouldn't know, but I wouldn't call it "boring". The amount of detail they put in to the history of EVERYTHING in the game is just astounding. The only issue is that the main "goal" is meant to be finding your twin, but it is hardly mentioned in the story. The story is still AMAZING though! (Please no 3.2 archon quest spoilers)
You might be confusing lore with the story, Genshin's lore is really good but it's story is nothing to write home about, it has good beats but then goes on a long slog. If you enjoy Genshin's story I really recommend you try honkai's out, I highly recommend it.

Genshin - better animations & graphics(as in open world exploring) , why? The animation in genshin is way more realistic than in honkai , the weight distribution and everything is so detailed where as in honkai everything just feels off , no weight distribution in animations , way to unrealistic , even for a mech based game....(don't come to crying to me about to 2d cut scene,) its not even a game at that point , just anime!! - i prefer fantasy over mecha ,idk mecha just feels like ass to mee , the only reason i like pubg nore than any other batttle royal coz it wasn't that mechanic unlike other games with laserblasters , same reason ( pubg got way more realistics animations and graphics than the other battle royals) - honkai is better in story at the moment , genshin is slow paced , still have hope , but yea not gonn expect anything from the story , 3.2 was good tho! ( I've played both)
Honkai i think is very far from an actual Mecha game. Its more like a futuristic game with elements of Mecha as the main focus is "ancient magic" which is honkai energy. Ngl im more of a fan of honkai animations. They are unrealistic, but thats honestly what makes them good for people like me.
I started honkai months ago. Played for a couple of days, dropped it, came back 1-2 months later and to this day keep on repeating the process. Because the story is good, but I hate the combat mechanics. I know so many people love them, but as a pc player the way the camera moves drives me insane, I feel like I never have a good sense of all that's going on. In genshin sometimes we can't really see what we are doing either, amidst all the enemies, explosions and numbers, but I personally still prefer it.
Genshin has a severe lack of endgame content, where as honkai has weekly and 3 day rotations of end game stuff that pretty much guarantees a crap ton of f2p crystals from elysian realm Finality, superstring dimensions and memorial arena
Fair enough...but i think both have their own specialty and weaknesses so i wanted to respect other people's taste by saying both equally great in their own way

Honestly pretty similar
The amount of storage they take is similar, but as a mobile user who plays Genshin and Honkai, Honkai Impact takes more space from me. But it honestly depends on what you've been doing in-game.

Everything you do in Genshin is in the third person and is unable to be changed. In Honkai, they’re free to make as diverse a game mode they want (as long as the character are the same as in-game). Last update we had a game mode close to PvZ and now we have fall guys.
Events story wise: reiterating my statement from earlier, Genshin is forced to stay stuck to the traveller’s storyline. No event can come back the same way after each release. Plus crucial story plots for certain characters motivations are locked to these specific events. Honkai, on the other hand, can use any character it wants to make a story because of the multiverse. Plus there is a literal completely separate storyline spanning several events that are re-running with their only changes being rewards.
I hope you like my endless rambling essay comparing two games made by the same company. ~ sincerely a traveller and a captain.
I completely agree with you
Genshin had fall guys too, windblume, kinda
@@anameig9332 did they have chibis though?
All seriousness, the two games have 2 different settings with two somewhat different goals in mind with story. Genshin is forced to be stuck with the traveller and (even though it isn’t a truly terrible thing) you only can get so much variation in look without breaking style.
On the downside tho, as a honkai player reading through dialogue and texts just feels so much more like a chore, considering that they don't rely on animation character speaking and mostly the players imagination (like reading a novel sorta). While genshin dialogue just feels more lively bc we got to see the actual characters talking real time and interacting with one another (idk it's hard to describe). But atleast honkai have a skip button tho
@@frecasfam Not really a downside, since ewe have a skip button, but alot of Genshin dialgue is so long and boring, but we still have no skip button😒
As someone who plays both... I somehow like honkai better, it's just that you start liking all the characters because you've got the time to get to know them properly
Edit: Didn't expect it to blow up like that-
You saying as if you don't get that in genshin, its just that you need to also play the events, but from what i saw its the same for honkai too so they are quite equal in this terms aswell
@@Vedhon But in honkai, it's focused on the story of three girls and their journey, they stay. In genshin, there are so many characters, of course they are not all playing a very important part. And the events... I don't know. Yea, with them characters are more memorizable, but it's still not the same. The main story doesn't focus on them, what means, if you aren't interested in characters in the first place, you might never know more about them
(Hope my english is readable)
@@X-dream exactly you only focus on three girls, because they are the main characters, in genshin you focus on aether/lumine in fact even the events build up their characters a bit too
@@Vedhon Not really. In honkai, even the side characters are important because there are only few of them, and they come back once in a while (RIP Himeko) but in genshin... If you want to use the events as an example, we don't get to know to much about their personality in the events. Also not the main story. They are just a replacement of the traveler, or us, a little bit more than in honkai we, the captain
@@X-dream if you are saying characters don't get much development in the events then you are either not playing them at all or not paying any attention to them at all
World and Graphics: Genshin (Ofc Open World)
End Game Content: Honkai (ER,Abyss/Superstring and Memorial while Genshin only have Spiral Abyss)
Story: Honkai (Because of one thing they are not afraid to kill a Characters to progress the story unlike in Genshin Because of the profit and Community outraged)
Gacha: both are worst (Genshin has one of the worst rate and 50/50 you need atleast 180 wish to get the guarantee specially in the weapons banner. Honkai on the other hand got the most expensive pulls but the good part is you only need 100 pulls for the Character banner to get guarantee and no 50/50 while the stigmata and weapon banner is quite ok)
Powerscaling: Honkai ( Honkai Impact powerscaling is more powerful than Genshin. A single Herrscher might solo Teyvat)
Gears and Weapon: Honkai ( Farmable Weapons and Stigmata with Gacha that always guarantee to get a 4 star Weapon or stigmata in every 10 pulls meanwhile in Genshin you will have to Face RNGesus itself to get a better artifacts and Weapon)
Character Designs: Honkai (better Character designs overall unlike Genshin who have to follow a strict CCP Law)
Combat System: Genshin ( Because of the Elemental reactions and didn't base on meta unless you play in abyss)
Reading Materials/ Manga: Honkai (Genshin only has 1 manga while Honkai got more)
Anime adaptation: Genshin (the First Hoyoverse Game to receive an anime)
Music/Concert: Honkai ( Far more better music and also Honkai Dream Euphony is one of the best Hoyoverse Concert i ever heard)
Community: Honkai (Chill Community unlike Genshin who become more toxic over time like Giving Death Threats to the VA and always think that they are always right)
This is my opinion for a lvl 88 captain with 4 years of gaming experience and a AR 60 Traveler with 2 years of experience..
Genshin is better than you think, this comment makes it sound terrible and for Honkai there was an update that deleted my acc before I even started PLAYING (I made and acc and did a pretty basic playthrough) plus there's no Eng VA's as far as I know and it gives me a headache listening to JP and Chinese
@@Ryleigh_Jade.06 the game always warn you ahead to bind your account on a Hoyoverse account and you probably ignored it.. yeah karma..

Genshin story : Long text story, a bit cutscene , cannot replay the cutscene.
Honkai story : Masterpiece
and depression
and All captains are gonna get depressed since tuna is on the moon 😭
I mean, honkai is also just long text or characters talking to each other for half your playtime while genshin story for the most part just sits in the corner for like 95% of the game like any good video game story, let's just say genshin story knows it's place while being good enough to be novel whenever it does get to shine.
While honkai is like Jesus Christ let me play the game for God's I don't care let me just hit stuff please I beg of you stop wasting my time with stupid ass cutscenes and annoying ass main character please for the love of God stop being an anime and start being a video game.... Sorry about that
@@itsame7491 it has skip feature.
@@suizuiakemi wait it does???? Nvm than honkai is a perfectly average video game than
gonna be completely honest, I love both games, but one issue that they both have is how clustered the events are for newer players. Honkais elysian realm is an absolute HELL for new players. not because of the play style, but because you can't enjoy the story being told. The story won be over though, as complicated as it is I'm all for it. especially Mei and kiana reuniting.
Yeah honkai is going a little downhill with all the open worlds forced into story
I really hate it when i have to spoil myself just to get a specific skin, character or materials

coming back from just finishing act V of sumeru, i can tell they are definitley improving. act V is quite long but i was rlly invested and didnt get bored at all.
The only that annoys me from the Genshin combat system is The auto lock on this is what causes you to miss ULTs
Bursts like (sucrose, yae) which HAVE to target the nearest enemy are my bane.
They always target that isolated enemy behind you instead of the group of 4 in front of you.
@@jonumine6250 same for venti, that’s why I use kazuha, instead of aiming the middle point of the enemies, just shot the blackhole at a small grp of enemies, and leave the others free
I play both genshin and honkai and, I can confirm about the gacha rates part is true.
My honkai account is just blessed. Never ever went past 60 pity and most of the time I pull limited s ranks in 20
For the Valkyries, on some accounts it takes me to soft pity to get them. I got Senti and Flamescion in 30 pulls together, grateful and all. Now I'm trying to get flamescion gear about 50ish pulls in, only got her weapon and a stigmata. Everything else is off-rates.
@@Cotarusan good luck on your pulls.
@@TNGYun i got li sushang at 32 pity 💀
@@aetheriumm imagine pulling sushang
I honestly prefer Honkai. Why? Because I played it before Genshin and has nearly gotten all Valkyries. Also because it's easier to get crystals and grind for mats. Also the Anniversary rewards are amazing..I just can't get enough.
The anniversary event is fire, the thing that genshin can never do, the rewards in honkai thicc fr, in genshin kinda petty. But idc the could've done much more than just throwing primos at us
@@anameig9332 literally just got free SN or Miss Pink Elf♪ ( choice ) in the 5th anniversary lmao
As a F2P HI3 player for more than 4years now.... SSS characters doesn't matter that much... Weapons and stigmas matter...
You can technically get 3 free S class valkyrie's in the starter journal, I'd say honkai is much more generous unlike genshin impact
“The scenes in Genshin are better than Honkai”
Also Honkai: *literally anime cut scene”
Everything is up to preference. If you like the full on anime-style and not the 3D style, that's a you thing. That doesn't mean that Honkai is better (OR WORSE) than Genshin. Both games are amazing, it's just up to players' preferences.
@@ChoiShi0822 yeah just watch anime or something xD
@@ChoiShi0822 I didn’t say honkai is better, I actually quit honkai. All I said was that the scenes are. well I’d say some, we’re maybe, yes, better. It’s just more detail and I don’t think that’s much of a me thing if it’s not from preference, and just the matter of the detail and animation. I still prefer genshin cut scenes and that’s a me thing.
Exactly
@@ChoiShi0822 Just a note, but Honkai's cutscenes are 3d. They're animated in engine, with a bit of flair added that isn't usually in the base gameplay. Same as Genshin. The only one that I can remember not being in 3d the whole time, was Because of You. Which used an old anime art-style and film boarder for a portion of it, for stylistic and thematic purposes.
When it comes to the storylines, it's not a matter of which one is better. They're two completely different stories, which means they'll each garner the attention of very different audiences. If more people don't like Genshin's story than they do Honkai's, that doesn't make Genshin's story bad, it just means that a majority of people just aren't into that plot type. Doesn't mean there's anything wrong with it.
Exactly bro 🤜
genshin story getting really good now tho. started slow cause they had to build things up but sumeru is amazing
5 months later, came to say there is no way you can compare both games in terms of story. Honkai has a lot of mangas, a complicated story that has a ton of pieces, and a lot of character development. Meanwhile, genshin can have good moments, cannot compare to what honkai already achieved.
@@Taigadiska 2 weeks later, came to say it's subjective.
@@haseebbarya8294 I'm saying, while sure it can be good, the set pieces for all stuff in honkai impact have already been placed, like a complicated story slowly revealed while progressing, and some others are scattered in mangas, as much as i know, genshin didn't and will not achieve for a long time, maybe a bit shorter now that the main plot is done, but still.
We gave them 2 years to work on the story but the Archon quest still feels like an hour long character showcase
i don't know about you but sumeru's archon quest is the best one out of all the chapters and it's not even finished yet. I'm still looking forward to that first playable character death where xiao could've had a great death moment
the archon quests sumeru onwards is really good tf u talkin about
Inazuma's too short, sumeru's too long, tf does players want💀
You didn't play sumeru
@@tyzo4291You forget the hell that quest is without acts 4 and 5. 💀
Act 2 made me want to quit the game. 💀💀💀
gettimg characters in hi3 is cheaper, but building them is very expensive, because their signature kits are often locked behind gacha. hi3 is exepensive, while gi is time consuming
Depends on the character some characters will be ok with craftable weapons and stigmatas since they dont need thier spefic gear you can if you want but some dont need em specially since some supports gets by craftable stuff.
Not all of the time, majority of the older characters or average S rank characters stigmata sets are in universal mirage shop to be farmed. Then you have special S ranks like Vii-V where you get a stigmata box, so you only need two of their stigmatas and weapon.
And there's always budget options for DPS characters, it's the supports you need to work on first.
you don't need their original stigmata just use handel for lightning dps
willows for ice dps
elysia for physical dps
for fire dps you can use leeuwenhoek and thales
and almost stigmata you need for each attribute already in foundry
Edit : the stigmata i said is already in foundry and can be create if you have enough material
@@Cotarusan Yea the support powercreep is insane.
To it's roots, honkai is like the chill elder brother to genshin. Thanks to honkai for making the path, genshin just walked
Also I want to add, genshin sell you the world of teyvet. We don’t really get to see the world of honkai outside of trio eyes. While genshin we get too see a bunch of small details.
Um?🤨 seele, fu hua, flamechasers, schicksal, anti entropy, apho, apho 2, sushang and whatever else I forgot
That’s because that’s part of the purpose of the games. Genshin is literally an open world, so they have to build up the world and allow you to explore while also giving lore on what happened in the past, lore about the current time, ect, while honkai is NOT an open world, so they don’t need to do any world building. Plus, it would probably be confusing since there isn’t necessarily just a set place/world in honkai. They’re constantly moving around, and a lot of characters have different stories in different settings. In conclusion, I don’t think you can compare the two games based on world building lol, sorry for the rant
Honkai and genshin are really different games so it's hard to compare them but about the story thing i think genshin story is extremely good and it's going very well and i can say the same thing about honkai, but genshin it's a fairly new game with 3.2 coming out in some days and honkai's 6.1 just released with the story having 31 chapters for now (i think it was 31) so honkai has far more content and they had more time to work with the story
But we can all agree that the best thing about these games are the design, especially character designs on both of them, an example is nahida and the vodka twins, they have really unique and pretty gameplays, with nahida creating a palace with her ult and being able to interact with material and npcs in a completly different way, and the vodka twins having different attacks, animations and skills when both lylia and rosaliya are on the team
Being honest honkai story and characther design is way better than genshin
@@nahuelescalera3232 True
@@nahuelescalera3232 this is because honkai realease first then genshin, but if we talk about popularity genshin>honkai
@@anosvoldigoad1618 yes is obvios who is the more popular but that does not make a game better, in the time genshin has right now honkai lore was already incredible, genshin story is just too slow
@@nahuelescalera3232 honkai is for the horny, Genshin is for the brainbroken.
Me who had to take notes when watching honkai quests: think twice you mortal, they are both ducking complicated and relates to each other
Depends on the preference of the player.
If one prefers a limited cluster of characters with the plot that focuses on the development of said characters and a very detailed development of secondary characters too, more recurrence of said characters, a dynamic combat and doesn’t mind the lack of an open world, then honkai is the game for you.
If one prefers more a world building focused storyline, a wider number of characters to see and get, a less intrusive protagonist, a storyline partly explained and partly hinted by scattered hints (books, artifacts, items, character lines), a wider, amazingly beautiful world design, more grind (artifacts), a less dynamic and varied combat play but with more elemental reactions, then Genshin is better for you.
The things that one might consider downsides of a game, might be the point that makes another like that game, and viceversa.
And some just appreciate both, because we play each game for a different reason.
Edit… I shouldn’t write an essay at 1am with a fever… 😢
Both games has its own charm and I'm playing honkai even before genshin.
Okay, I'm a honkai veteran, and I almost have every character, and I don't have a SINLGE full set for one of my S ranks. I have most of the characters though. Got lucky with Herrscher of Human: Ego and have an ice dps! F2P is the best way because you work harder to get just as good as everyone else! 4 years of playing and I love it. I also started playing Genshin and I love it. I'm only AR 24, but I have all Mondstat, Liyue, and 3.1 Sumeru Statue of the Seven unlocked! Got lucky with standard pulls and got a 5 star in my first 2 pulls, but it was skyward pride. My nahida pulls AR saving up, and I love both games. I can also make my friend F2P no more!
I think Honkai is a bit better when it comes to drop rates
Like the one for a 5* character in genshin is 0.6%
(0.3% for guarantee)
Wheras honkai it's 1.2% I think
And for artifacts/Stigmata, stigmata do the same thing and the only possible bad thing is affixes like PSY resistance. (Which are rerollable without having to get another one)
Wheras in genshin, you have to do tons and tons of rerolling for a decent artifact even with a 50/50 chance of being on set.
Ik my pfp makes me look biased, I started in genshin and then went on to Honkai because of burn out
I find it weird finding people opposite of me, I started genshin first and have played it since the start and afterwards decided to play honkai but got burn out and bored after playing it for like 5 days.
The only reason why I continue to play honkai is because of elysia
It's 1.5% actually and it statistically lowers the chance when you approach closer to pity
Stigmata and weapon banners are a real pain tho most of the time I got dupe off rates
Personally hi3 expansion supply is GG ez I usually got character card at 75-98 pity but focused is real suffering though like I mentioned
Genshin gacha is shit I only get early twice, and lost 9 50/50s out of 10. All of that still can't get jean and tighnari. Then there's some players who always wins 50/50
Weapon banner idk but I did got homa from it I'm happy. They didn't need set 3/3 for pity though just 2 is enough of a scam
@@anameig9332 I relate so badly
When it comes to the story I think its mainly just your preference. The way I see it, Genshin's story is more world based and its lore focuses more on the world building than the actual characters. But you can learn more about the characters it's just that you'll have to dig into side stuff and not just the main story. As for Honkai Impact, its story is more character driven as even the side characters have their moments to shine. So it really just depends on what kind of stories you prefer and this is also just my take on how their stories are like.
Mihoyo chilling in the back after making both games
Fr
I love Genshin but honkai as something more the cinematics the character they have something magical like elysia and his cinematics who is incredible
u forgot to add the music category which i think genshin dominates.
Mihoyo dosent miss in music so it dosent count both sides are a banger one is more depressing than the other but nonetheless still a banger.
I would give music to Honkai because two words. Moon halo
I think that’s mainly up to personal preference, but in my opinion, honkai has better music. With the trailer music for characters, animation music, boss theme music or even just background music when you’re playing the story can either get you to bop your head or just start crying lmao, genshin has more traditional music, this is just my opinion though
Nightglow is the saddest
no , genshin lore is so fucking deep and good
But Honkai lore is the deepest
I will say that genshin's story is easier to get into rather than honkai, I forget what chapter I'm on because I stopped playing honkai a while ago, but I'm like maybe 18 chapters in? And I have no idea what the story is about.
The main question is do you skip dialogues if you dunno the honkai story then your skipping dialogues and well reading the manga helps since honkai cant fit everything in the game.
@@scarletrose8766 no I don't skip the dialogues, idk man I just don't know what really going on
@@lordlyka68 welp maybe the manga will help you since the game also reccomend you read the manga too
@@scarletrose8766 It probably would but I don't think I'll read it since I would prefer the game to tell the story, plus its hard for me to get into manga or even books in general unless I physically have it, which I'm assuming honkai doesn't have a physical release. I'll probably just look up a summary video instead, and just stop when I've reached the point I am in game.
@@lordlyka68 there is the honkai chronicles that might help theres the introduction then the life of both mei and kiana (dunno if they made any other chronicles just yet)

See genshin channels make Honkai related video “oh I already know how is it going”
I really hope that someday i will be as immersed in genshin's storyline as I am now in honkai's

Honkai: iconic combat, iconic story..iconic this, iconic that..
Lets just say both have their own specialty and equally great cuz people have their own taste and we need to respect them...dont need to be such childish and talk shit about one another over a game
I prefer genshin simply because it's an open world game + it actually has playable male characters
Lol A post honkai oddessy which is one of honkais open world part has a playable male and while its part of the story you get to play another male character in honkai. Just saying honkai do be letting you play some dudes just not many.
@@scarletrose8766 I'm a husbando player, so hi3 that is full of waifus is definitely not for me.
@@jsisjsbshhsjsjs6489 ah ok theres are hot guys in honkai sadly cause of CN players who refuse male characters to be playable yeah you can blame em
First genshin visuals compared to honkai are actually bad the very 1st point of world and graphics is that world wise exploration genshin wins but graphics and visuals wise honkai wins. So i do say both get a point on the 1st part
The story line of honkai is just chaos
I like how people are comparing a 6 year old game to a 2 year old game.
If we compare them with the two year old honkai there would not be much difference (at least in the points that he said)
Interesting fact: Genshin impact's WIP name was Honkai Impact 4
tho the cutscenes in honkai is just 👌👌
I cant really follow up the story in honkai at all so it got pretty boring for me lol... I am always lucky in genshin and only lost 50/50 like 3 times
Yeah I mean the story is always open I have no idea where to start plus there is event too..unlike Genshin u must do the story step by step..
The lore and story of genshin is crafted very beautifully. With the recent archon quest, things get a lot deeper
I don’t think it’s fair to compare the 2 games, they are VERY fundamentally different on PURPOSE. One is not objectively better or worse than the other because they are striving to achieve different things.
Honkai is objectively better than Genshin though.
@@DukeofRizz Genshin is objectively better than Honkai tho.
You realize genshin has very cryptic lore beneath that anime exterior
The sumeru archon quests went hard
Dint they have to call in the honkai team for sumeru story line or so i heard cant remember.
Honkai impact is the favorite child for hoyo and genshin is the child that has to provide for the family
from my experience, honkai's gacha system is more forgiving than genshin's because 50/50 doesnt exist. it's just that the ceiling for hard pity is raised (to 100 instead of genshin's 90, which is fair game considering how generous mihoyo is with crystals)
Both games are great in their own right. To say which is better doesn’t really mean anything other than a preference. Both are beautiful forms of art. Created by this awesome thing called Mihoyo
Another reason genshin isn't fully released
Genshin doesn't follow any story it's only follows lore
fun fact: the two games were made by the same company like theyere both made by hoyoverse
Two words - anniversary rewards
Idk what you mean with simular rates.0.6 against 1.5 with no 50 50 seems different. Gear is also easier to get in honkai.
Bro the new archon quest was FIREEEEEEEEEEEE🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The difference is in Genshin you can't play dead characters. But in Honkai, you can
(For now)
ELYSIAN REALM BABY
lmao so true : 💀
Agree , example ER character full of death FlameChaser member(real Mobius and real Griseo status still unknown, Fu Hua and Kevin alive, and the rest is dead). But still they are playable (even though Kevin is just Will of Stigmata playable for temporary/one time in story)
They are never gonna remove your ability to use dead characters that be stupid cause if that happens its stupid you have a lotta dead people in honkai not gonna drop names but theres a lot of em.
For me, honkai will always be superior
I think both equally great (in their own way) but i respect your opinion
@@senatorarmstrong3308 i agree. I dislike Genshin but it's a good game.

And almost 700 days genshin player. Here and still counting
Plays honkai 3-5 hrs a day
Plays genshin less than an hour a day

Your friend probably below 400 days of playing. I used to play like that too. If your friend tries honkai, farm gears and manage to adopt the complex gameplay, he might focus the action on honkai.

Some characters fight fast
I started Genshin first, now Honkai is my favourite game. I've never won a 50/50 in Genshin I've played over a year however in Honkai I get characters in one ten pull enjoying Honkai more, I just can't seem to like Genshin much anymore 😭
In my opinion, Genshin's story is AMAZING. I've never played Honkai so I'm not saying it's better, cause I wouldn't know, but I wouldn't call it "boring". The amount of detail they put in to the history of EVERYTHING in the game is just astounding. The only issue is that the main "goal" is meant to be finding your twin, but it is hardly mentioned in the story. The story is still AMAZING though!
(Please no 3.2 archon quest spoilers)
You might be confusing lore with the story, Genshin's lore is really good but it's story is nothing to write home about, it has good beats but then goes on a long slog.
If you enjoy Genshin's story I really recommend you try honkai's out, I highly recommend it.
@@neelankoopman3718 true like i absolutely love genshin lore but the main stories actually had me begging mhy to add a skip button (esp the first few acts of the sumeru archon quest; the last act was good though-)
@@neelankoopman3718 i tried honkai, genshin's story is still amazing, especially 3.0-3.2 story quests, other region quests were just good (not inazuma)
I think the Genshin main story become "know about teyvat" because you know she won't come with us until we end our journey ( sorry for my bad eng ☠️)
As a f2p this is kinda true -w- I have a lot of A class valkyries on Honkai and a lot of 5 stars in Genshin as well
😐a class= 4 star in genshin
S class= 5 star in genshin
@@dragonle8785 hm..but all characters can be S class if you build or use them in the right way tbh even support can be main dps
In other words "you as player is the one who suck at using/build them if they end up useless/weak"
idk how is this battle when honkai literally have many visual, animated, story and first before genshin no cap
i like the genshin storyline but ok
Genshin - better animations & graphics(as in open world exploring) , why? The animation in genshin is way more realistic than in honkai , the weight distribution and everything is so detailed where as in honkai everything just feels off , no weight distribution in animations , way to unrealistic , even for a mech based game....(don't come to crying to me about to 2d cut scene,) its not even a game at that point , just anime!!
- i prefer fantasy over mecha ,idk mecha just feels like ass to mee , the only reason i like pubg nore than any other batttle royal coz it wasn't that mechanic unlike other games with laserblasters , same reason ( pubg got way more realistics animations and graphics than the other battle royals)
- honkai is better in story at the moment , genshin is slow paced , still have hope , but yea not gonn expect anything from the story , 3.2 was good tho! ( I've played both)
Honkai i think is very far from an actual Mecha game. Its more like a futuristic game with elements of Mecha as the main focus is "ancient magic" which is honkai energy.
Ngl im more of a fan of honkai animations. They are unrealistic, but thats honestly what makes them good for people like me.
Genshin impact > honkai impact
Heres an idea, don't compare the two games like a meta ranking, they're both good so play them both if you want
I started honkai months ago. Played for a couple of days, dropped it, came back 1-2 months later and to this day keep on repeating the process. Because the story is good, but I hate the combat mechanics. I know so many people love them, but as a pc player the way the camera moves drives me insane, I feel like I never have a good sense of all that's going on. In genshin sometimes we can't really see what we are doing either, amidst all the enemies, explosions and numbers, but I personally still prefer it.
Honkai is like the favourie child of mihoyo
Genshin is like the money maker of mihoyo
Bro be like, 'It'll get better! Better!"
Copium. Copium!
I tried Honkai a while ago and didn’t like the gameplay but love Genshin’s so I guess that’s just a person preference
Have you tried out herrscher of sentience?
I disagree with the first point. Honkai cutscenes look so much better than anything has to offer and it’s not even comparable
I’ll go with Genshin cause why not!
Bro I deleted Honkai so I could keep genshin bc I was running out of storage and I’m starting to regret it ☠️☠️
Its hard to play both of you dont have room for both its one or the other
Genshin has a severe lack of endgame content, where as honkai has weekly and 3 day rotations of end game stuff that pretty much guarantees a crap ton of f2p crystals from elysian realm Finality, superstring dimensions and memorial arena
Fair enough...but i think both have their own specialty and weaknesses so i wanted to respect other people's taste by saying both equally great in their own way
And... There is no 50/50 in Honkai
Summary, Honkai better.
And PGR better than both.
only in combat....lol
in story and everything pgr is shit
