Parent knows this, but maybe other readers might not: Gacha is the Japanese name for those machines on the street where you put in a coin and a plastic sphere with a random toy comes out.
Collecting a set of toys can get obsessive for some, in the same way collecting whatever in micro transaction games.
I also have a question: other than the graphic styles isn’t genshin impact closer to the online final fantasy games or even modern jrpg such as xenoblade?
I’ve never played genshin, but from the little I’ve seen it just seems it’s only the graphic style that matches BoTW
The BotW comparisons come because of the world traversal mechanics, mostly. Genshin very-exactly copied the free-climbing + stamina + glider system that's pretty distinctive in BotW.
