Many elements have contributed to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game’s continued relevance over the previous 26 years. Constant releases with new monsters and archetypes that try to shake the game up each set, as well as diverse formats for the game’s many players, can be found in anime like Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS. Yu-Gi-Oh! has lacked a real digital card game simulator – other than Duel Links –  for itself over the years, but that has changed with the release of Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel.

Today Konami released the long awaited digital version of the Master Duel format of Yu-Gi-Oh! which follows the traditional TCG rules of the game.

There has been a rising demand for tabletop games like Monopoly or even Dungeons & Dragons to be transformed into an easier, digitalized version where the rules of the game are processed automatically by a computer since the emergence of PC games. Other TCGs, such as Pokémon, have long followed suit, and even digital-only card games like Hearthstone have benefited from the trend. Yu-Gi-Oh! released a couple of comparable games, although they were all more like video game adaptations than true digital versions.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel gets Surprise Release!

Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel was unveiled in July with the goal of eventually filling that void in the Yu-Gi-Oh portfolio. The game has already been confirmed for future World Championships events, as well as a substantial story mode focused on YGO card lore rather than the plot from the franchise’s several anime seasons and spin-offs. And now, much to the amazement of fans, it has been launched without warning across all platforms.

The game is free to play and employs gems as a currency for an in-game shop, like Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links. Players can pay real-world cash to cover gems in-game, or they can simply accomplish special event objectives or story tasks to earn gems for free.  These gems are used to buy packs, create decks, and cosmetic accessories.

I’ve spent a little bit of time with the game so far and can say that the game is not stingy when it comes to giving gems as a reward, but whether this remains the case long term we will see.

Master Duel is here, and it’s built to be the ultimate definitive version of Yu-Gi-Oh! on consoles for hardcore players, after many years of fans longing for a real means to interact with others to enjoy one of their favourite card games. It’s good to see the gap finally filled after Konami shut down previous fan efforts for years with nothing to take their place.

Some players, however, may see this as yet another way for Konami to profit from Yu-Gi-Oh’s long-lasting popularity, given how loyal players will need to spend gems and possibly real money to ensure they own their favourite cards in both Master Duel and Duel Links, as well as any of the other upcoming titles like Yu-Gi-Oh! Cross Duel. For now, though things are looking good for Master Duel.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and mobile devices.

Beta leakers say the new Spiral Abyss is the toughest yet.

Each update of Genshin Impact brings new characters, events, and (of course) a new challenge in the Spiral Abyss. Players have struggled with the latest Abyss, which functions as a colossal DPS check. While the rest of the game is straightforward, the Spiral Abyss is on another level. For an average endgame player like me, I’m usually able to all-clear floors 9 through 11, but floor 12 is a real challenge to all-star.

A leaker claimed that you will need some very high investment, well-built teams if you aren’t a ‘whale’ player with multiple high-constellation 5 stars. Reminder: a 5-star character with maxed out cons can run you for a few thousand.

I’m really not a fan of this – what’s the fun in paying to win? The Abyss was clearable with even all 4-star teams back in the day. But now it’s getting harder and harder, at a rate faster than the average player can improve their account.

Not only that, but the rewards are still sitting at a measly 150 primos for a 9 star clear. Really, people are only clearing it for the street cred, if you will. But honestly, what’s impressive about brute forcing a challenge with expensive DPS?

There are numerous protests in the comment section, but most agreed that the new Rifthound enemies are a huge pain and are one of the worst types of enemies miHoYo has ever added to the game. If your team composition is melee-based, it makes these enemies even more challenging. There are only two ranged weapon types in the game – Bow and Catalyst. Even fewer of these characters are strong DPS units. The constant jumping around makes it almost impossible for players to land their DPS rotation. Not only that, but the corrosion effect forces you into bringing a healer to your party, taking a valuable spot that could be used for more DPS.

The Spiral Abyss had been relatively consistent in its difficulty until Genshin 2.0 when Inazuma was introduced. Ever since then, the difficulty has been ramping up with each update. The biggest issue is that new players won’t be able to catch up and have missed the runs/reruns of many of the strongest characters for the Abyss. If you don’t have the legend of crowd control, Venti, some floors with tons of smaller enemies are near impossible. While Sucrose might be able to help you out, we haven’t seen her on a banner in a while either. If you’re stuck, you’re stuck. One tip: the anemo traveller does have some crowd control capabilities and may be worth investing in if you’re struggling with these floors.

It’s not that Genshin players don’t want more challenging game content – we absolutely do. But making existing content harder instead of creating new, harder content with more rewards to incentivise challengers is the way to go. Instead, casual and free to play players – and perhaps even mid-spenders, are slowly getting locked out of existing content.

Genshin Impact is available to download and play for free on PC, mobile, and PS4, as well as the PS5. If you haven’t been able to get your hands on the new PlayStation console, register your interest at our shop.

The post Genshin Impact 2.4 Spiral Abyss is even harder first appeared on Get2Gaming.

How I nearly tripled my Albedo’s damage output using the new artefact set and F2P weapon.

It hasn’t really been all that long since I posted my first build guide for Albedo, back when his rerun was initially announced. At that time, the Harbinger of Dawn was the go to weapon, and his artefacts were a mixed bag.

Now, with the new free to play weapon, the Cinnabar Spindle, and the new defence and geo damage boosting set, Husk of Opulent Dreams, Genshin Impact has given Albedo a complete overhaul.

First, let’s look at the damage comparison between the old and new Albedo.

Three weeks ago, my Albedo’s skill would hit for around 10k – with the assistance of Zhongli and Geo Resonance.

Look at my Albedo now:

Here, he hit for a maximum of 24k off-field damage with all the same buffs. This massive damage increase is all thanks to the new Free to Play event weapon and a brand new artefact set.

The Cinnabar Spindle

The latest event took us to the wilderness of Dragonspine, where we built snowmen, ran time trials, and uncovered a strange imposter. Most importantly, though, we got this great new weapon. We were also able to refine it to level five for free from event rewards, and benefited from an EXP bonus while leveling it up.

The passive, improved base attack, and defence substat should serve to give you a 10% damage increase from the Harbinger of Dawn (provided you aren’t completely reliant on it for crit rate and crit damage).

Though some have complained that this sword only works on Albedo, it’s a free weapon at the end of the day, and it makes Albedo very F2P friendly to build. This is in fact his Best in Slot 4 star, and can even out damage some 5 star swords too. Not to mention, you’ll no longer be chained to keeping Albedo’s health over 90%.

Artefacts

The Husk of Opulent Dreams set can provide up to 4 stacks of curiosity, each buffing your defence and geo damage by 6%. That’s a considerable total of 24% defence and geo damage. It’s very easy to maintain maximum stacks with Albedo, as you will gain a stack by being off-field every 3 seconds. The only way to lose stacks is by standing on field and doing no geo damage.

If you want to maintain Albedo as more of a support role, he is one of the characters who can best utilise the Tenacity of Millelith’s 4 piece set. This increases party members attack by 20% and shield strength by 30%. As Albedo cannot benefit from the attack bonus himself (because his skill scales with defence), I personally don’t recommend sacrificing Albedo’s damage for this buff. Attack can instead be boosted by another party member with a four piece Noblesse set, if needs be.

As for the stats on the artefacts, you’re going to follow a traditional DPS build. However, you’ll be substituting attack for defence. As you’re going to get plenty of defence from the set bonus and Cinnibar Spindle, you’re definitely going to want a crit rate or crit damage circlet. This will depend on how much crit rate you manage to scourge up in your sub stats, etc. The time piece should be defence, and the goblet should have a geo damage bonus. In your sub stats you should prioritise crit rate / crit damage, but defence rolls are not unwelcome either.

If you’re sticking with the Harbinger of Dawn, prioritise defence more. You could even consider using a defence circlet or goblet.

Following are the stats on my Albedo which allow him to hit for these sorts of numbers.

This is my Albedo with max curiosity stacks from the Opulent set. Again, this will not be hard to maintain. He previously had around 1,800 defence – so 2,458 is a huge improvement.

My crit rate isn’t most ideal, but I’m able to skimp on it by pairing him with the Geo traveller, who has an ER build. The Geo traveller provides a 10% crit rate buff with their elemental burst, which is pretty easy to maintain. I will at some point probably switch Albedo to a build with more crit rate and less crit damage, but for now I’m happy to pair him with the traveller or use him in my teams that capitalise on Cryo Resonance.

With the buff from the Opulent set, Albedo is able to enjoy a 92.2% Geo damage bonus. This should be the same for you, with a level 20 goblet and max curiosity stacks, plus the geo damage boost from his ascension stat.

Team compositions

Albedo slots comfortably into most team compositions as a sub DPS. He shines the most, however, in Geo compositions. This allows him to benefit from Geo resonance, which greatly buffs Geo damage.

Albedo will work especially well with characters that do AoE damage. The limitations on his skill procs apply to individual enemies, so essentially the more enemies you can attack at once, the more his skill can activate. This makes him pretty much godly with a character like Venti, whose burst continuously hits many enemies at once. He also works very well with the Geo traveller’s burst (when it actually lines up with enemies, that is). Another great candidate is Tartaglia, whose riptides can damage multiple enemies at once. Electro-charged comps also suit him in this way.

Congratulations to everyone who managed to snag an Albedo (or Eula). If you’re still pulling for him in this last week, I’m sending you all the best luck! While my Albedo’s build is still far from perfect, I hope I’ve demonstrated his huge potential with the new set and F2P sword.

The post Genshin Impact 2.3 gives Albedo INSANE damage first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Genshin Impact 2.4 is well underway, with the arrival of upcoming 5 star Arataki Itto just a week away.

As always with Genshin, eyes are well ahead, and excitement for the next 5 star, Shenhe, is ramping up.

YouTuber ZHiN Moe has shared a six minute clip showcasing Shenhe’s idle animations, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst. The Cryo wielder can be seen striking the air with her polearm, before dashing forward with her Spring Spirit Summoning.

While the DPS units of Genshin Impact tend to generate more hype, Shenhe has already drummed up a lot of anticipation despite her support-based kit. There’s already a Reddit community surrounding her.

Overall, Shenhe can do some cryo damage while buffing her team members, especially cryo damage. This should make her a decent support for characters like Ganyu. For those who want a more detailed look at her leaked kit, I’ve pasted the details below.

Shenhe Talents

Precise Comings and Goings: Gains 25% more rewards in Liyue Expeditions that are longer than 20 hours.

Deific Embrace: An active character within the field created by Shenhe’s Elemental Burst / Q will get a 10% Cryo DMG bonus.

Spirit Communion Seal: Shenhe will buff party members when using her Elemental Skill / E.
Press: Increases Elemental Skill and Burst DMG by 15% for 10s.
Hold: Increases Normal, Charged, Plunging Attack DMG by 15% for 15s.

If Shenhe uses her skill again when the effect is still active, it’ll reset the timers.

There have been mixed responses to the leaks of Shenhe’s kit. Many feel that this is not impressive enough for a 5 star support character, especially considering that there are better 4 star options like Bennett who can provide huge team buffs.

But, until she’s officially released, we can’t ascertain the limits to her capabilities. One thing is for sure, and that’s that her gorgeous design will already entice some players to go for her.

The post Genshin Impact Shenhe animations, gameplay, and abilities leaked first appeared on Get2Gaming.

The hype around Genshin Impact continues to build, with new characters and updates being announced frequently, and MiHoYo are constantly dishing out new content to keep players hooked.

At the moment, the weapon types in Genshin Impact include Claymores, Swords, Bows, Polearms, and Catalysts. We have exhausted almost every combination of Element and Weapon there is, excusing Hydro Claymore, Polearm, and Cryo Catalyst. Gorou will son be filling the missing spot of geo archer. We’re still yet to see a male catalyst user, though.

All characters can only wield one type of weapon, though Childe’s skill transforms his bow attacks into melee attacks.

According to leakers, a new type of weapon is possibly in the world.

There's a new weapon type in the works, this would be a mixed close combat and ranged weapon type.

Release date for this is unknown

— UBatcha (@Ubatcha1) November 22, 2021

A mixed close combat and ranged weapon type could be something like a crossbow. This does, however, sound a lot like Childe’s fighting style. I do worry that crossbow users would render his skill somewhat obsolete, if these crossbow users have a skill on top of a damage conversion type mechanic.

A new weapon would certainly shake things up for endgame players who have mastered all 5 available weapon types. Currently, the strongest DPS characters in meta are Ganyu (bow), Xiao and Hu Tao (polearm), and Ayaka (sword). There’s also some strong Claymore users, including Eula and Diluc, along with a plethora of viable 4 star DPS characters too.

Back in the day, Diluc was the strongest character available, and most people felt pressured to use a claymore DPS character for breaking shields with heavy attacks. Now, there’s a larger variety of team comps and ways to get around enemy geo shields. MiHoYo have actually done a pretty good job of offering a variety of playstyles.

The next 5 star joining Genshin is Arataki Itto, a claymore user. Perhaps the playful gang leader will bring claymores back into the meta, but we won’t know until we see his damage scaling since geo is one of the lease offensive elements.

What kinds of new weapons do you think could be added to Genshin Impact? I think another heavy hitting weapon would be great, like a mace. Something close range like nunchucks or knuckledusters would be cool (and kind of funny too).

The post Crossbows could be added to Genshin Impact first appeared on Get2Gaming.

The studio behind Genshin Impact recently opened a new studio in Montreal, Canada to support the development of AAA games.

Genshin Impact is one of the most successful and profitable video games to date, reportedly earning 2 billion USD.

And with the 2.3 update headed this way, it’s only set to get bigger and bigger.

It’s no surprise, then, that all eyes are on MiHoYo’s every move. Everyone’s already buzzing about the upcoming game, Honkai: Star Rail. More excitement was stirred when it was revealed that MiHoYo were opening a studio in Montreal, Canada.

In this MiHoYo gains a foothold in one of the biggest development cities in the gaming industry, and also represents the continuation of Chinese investment in Western development spearheaded by Tencent.

MiHoYo have committed to hiring 100 new staff members for the new studio, and people have been monitoring their job postings to get an idea of what lies in the studio’s future.

One for a senior level designer describes an open world with urban areas and wilderness connected by a significant road system, with an emphasis on vehicular gameplay.

Part of the listings also state MiHoYo’s mission to “create a virtual world for one billion people by 2030.” Is that terrifying, or exciting? It seems the metaverse might have some competition, and they have the power of anime on their side.

The post MiHoYo’s next project is a paranormal open-world online game first appeared on Get2Gaming.

The 5 star was supposedly shelved after previous leaks, but new information suggests she could be arriving in Genshin Impact 2.4.

A Genshin Impact leak containing now confirmed details has given information on the character Shenhe. Shenhe’s model was previously leaked, and subsequently shelved by MiHoYo. Many players who were disappointed at the time now have new hope thanks to a recent leak.

The Reddit post from almost a month ago contains details about 2.3, which turned out to be true – lending some credibility to the claims about later updates.

The post is supposedly a screenshot of a conversation with someone who has a friend working at MiHoYo. It seems like the Leaker’s Hunt Decree isn’t particularly successful. I personally think leaks are somewhat inevitable when it comes to a game as popular as Genshin, which has a monthly update system.

Ganyu and Xiao are also some of the most highly-anticipated reruns on the horizon. It’s possible that this information could affect the sales on Arataki Itto’s banner. I’ve definitely abandoned thoughts of pulling for Itto’s weapon in favour of Ganyu. But at the same time, leaks help to generate hype.

It’ll be interesting to see what strategy MiHoYo takes here. It’s possible they’ll jump the gun and announce Shenhe, beating leakers to the punch like they did with Itto. That was a slightly different situation, however, as the two banners before Itto’s were reruns. It was a less risky move.

According to the information here, we could finally be getting a cryo catalyst user – a combination we haven’t seen yet.

It’s always exciting when that happens, as we have seen most combinations you can imagine in the game already. The only other one I can think of that we’re yet to see is a hydro polearm character. Our first Geo bow character, Gorou, is on the way alongside Itto in Genshin 2.3.

In previous leaks, it was speculated that Shenhe was the human form of Cloud Retainer. I’d be quite surprised if that was still the case, honestly. Or maybe I just personally dislike the concept.

I do have a feeling that Shenhe will have changed a lot from the original leaks, considering how long she’s been in development. And there’s no real guarantee that Shenhe will become a playable character right now. This is all prone to change.

We’ve also got new characters like Yunjin and Yae Miko supposedly on the horizon. All we can do right now is wait and see!

The post Genshin Impact 5 star Shenhe leaks first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Genshin Impact’s 2.3 livestream contains all you need to know about Itto’s kit.

The banner of the highly-anticipated Arataki Itto has almost arrived. We finally got a proper look at him and Gorou, along with the 2.3 announcements for Genshin Impact.

In this part of the live stream, Itto’s English VA, Max Mittelman, explains how his kit works. First, obviously, he is a claymore-wielder who holds a geo vision – much like Noelle.

His second and fourth attacks grant him stacks of Superlative Superstrength. His elemental skill and sprints keep his normal attack pattern from resetting, making it easier to manage your stacks. The Superlative Strength stacks will allow him to do charged attacks without using stamina, consuming the stacks. The consumption of his final stack will boost the power of that specific attack. You can, of course, do charged attacks without stacks, consuming stamina and not reaping any of the benefits of the stacks. However, after you unlock his talent, Arataki Ichiban (literally meaning Arataki Number One) consecutive charged attacks will increase his resistance to interruption and boost his attack speed. The following talent, Bloodline of the Crimson Oni, will boost his charged attacks by his defence.

His elemental skill has him hurling a cute cow called Ushi. It seems Ushi will do initial damage when thrown and will grant Itto stacks when he is put on the field. He also gives Itto one last stack before he dips; nice! Ushi is considered a geo structure and will stick around to taunt enemies, basically granting you more stacks. He’ll hang about until his HP hits 0 or his duration ends. I wonder if he’ll resonate with Zhongli’s pillar?

Itto’s burst allows him to enter his Oni King form. This will convert all his attacks into Geo damage and cannot be overridden – so you can use him with C6 Bennett, no problem. It will also make his first and third attacks (instead of his second and fourth attacks) grant him his Superlative Superstrength stacks. Kind of a random change, but alright! His elemental and physical resistance will drop during his burst, but he’ll boost his attacks based on his defence as well as an attack speed increase. He should be fine if he’s got high defence and shielding party members helping him out, anyhow.

Lastly, his exploration talent will get you more wood when Itto’s in your party. Pretty simple!

He seems like a character who can be played meticulously with careful management of his stacks, or the more casual player can just go crazy hack-and-slashing without thinking too much about it. He seems really fun to play, and I love his character design and voice lines. The idle animation of him combing his hair is top tier, too. What a loveable rogue.

In other news, here is a complete summary of Genshin’s 2.3 livestream, with primo codes, event and weapon info!

The post Genshin Impact: Itto kit breakdown first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Fans, upset at the lack of anniversary rewards and ongoing silence from miHoYo, take to flooding the Google Play store with negative reviews

Yesterday marked the anniversary for the release of miHoYo’s hit free-to-play gacha game, Genshin Impact.
The day was… anti-climatic, to say the least. I did enjoy the anniversary ‘theatre’ web event, which gives you a rundown of your stats for the year and is complete with some adorable chibi-style art. But when all was said and done, the rewards for the day amounted to a measly few primos and one intertwined fate. It seems like we’re set to be rewarded for a year of dedication with a meagre 10 wishes.

Whales and F2P players alike are pretty ticked off by the situation, and miHoYo’s continued silence and censorship of the complaints has only served to further aggravate the player base. On the official Genshin Discord server, slowmode restrictions have been increased to combat the players spamming an emote of a rather forlorn-looking Qiqi:

Pretty much every tweet on the official Genshin twitter is being bombarded with complaints, and there has been a huge drop in the success of the Like to Dislike ratio on the latest Genshin YouTube video.

Perhaps the most surprising, and amusing, part of all this is the review-bombing on the Google Play store for the Genshin app.

Genshin Impact review score dropped to 1.9 on the play store#GenshinImpact #原神 pic.twitter.com/gkkqfMEgYw

— Genshin Impact Memes (@Genshinmem) September 28, 2021

The game had been maintaining a very respectable 4 star rating up until the anniversary debacle. Another game by miHoYo, Honkai Impact, has also been the target of review-bombing as a result of dissatisfaction with miHoYo, and has taken a bit of a dip in its overall ratings.

The genshin impact anniversary is a disaster lmao

— Mutahar (@OrdinaryGamers) September 29, 2021

Players’ irritation only grew when miHoYo launched an expensive #hashflag marketing campaign on Twitter

If you don’t know what hashflags are, they’re a Twitter campaign that allows for a small emote to appear next to a hashtag, and we can only estimate that they cost a pretty penny.

https://twitter.com/caepricOrn_01/status/1442836514803576845?s=20

As cute as these hashtags are (#littlewolfie for Razor?! #bennysadventureteam!!? So cute!!) they do seem to be a bit of an egregious waste of money. Many fans are questioning how miHoYo has the money to spare for this expensive campaign, but can’t spare us some primos for the anniversary.

I do understand the frustration, but I find it really hard to stay angry at this campaign when I can add little Benny emotes to my tweets now.

He’s just too adorable. MiHoYo control my one weakness, unfortunately.

In all seriousness, it’s pretty sad that after so much success and acclaim, miHoYo would mess up the anniversary so spectacularly. This probably won’t affect them in the long run, as Genshin is geared to it’s mostly casual player base. But the hardcore fans, the content creators, the people who created the buzz that let Genshin rocket to success, will always have a sour memory of the first anniversary of the game they have poured so much heart into supporting.

It’s not about the money or the primos – it’s about appreciation. The rewards didn’t even have to be primos; some new skins, a special rerun, or a free selectable 4 star would have brightened up the day a bit. Instead, I’m left with a vague sense of disappointment.

Happy anniversary, Genshiners.
