Fans of Genshin Impact don’t like the new character, Dehya, because they think she needs more power. Many people were looking forward to Dehya, but it didn’t live up to the hype for many when it came out. But, besides Dehya, Genshin Impact players continue to enjoy the growing number of characters.
The HoYoverse game has been out since 2020. When it came out, it was met with some controversy. One ChinaJoy attendee smashed a PS4 in protest the year before, supposedly because it was too similar to Breath of the Wild. Genshin Impact found its niche when it came out, and many people quickly became fans of the RPG gacha game. The characters you can get through the gacha mechanic are a big draw for many people.
Dehya was first talked about in January. Since then, there have been leaks about her, which has made people more interested in her. Genshin Impact version 3.5 added Dehya as a playable character, but players were immediately unhappy with her skills. Even though Dehya is a 5-star character, her attack stats are some of the worst in the game, even worse than many 4-star characters. But this could be a choice that was made on purpose to make Dehya the Desert Mercenary more balanced.
Unlike most of the game’s other 5-star characters, who are usually only available for three weeks, Dehya will always be available at the end of Genshin Impact version 3.5. Since so many people will be able to get her, it’s easy to see why players would want a stronger character. But this may be why she isn’t as strong as the other 5-star characters, so players’ teams are balanced. Fans like the game’s gameplay, characters, and world, but the community wants Genshin to be the best it can be. One fan has suggested exciting changes to the game’s Elemental Resonance.
This kind of attitude can also be seen on Dehya’s subreddit, where frustrated players are talking about emailing HoYoverse to ask for more vital skills for the character. In contrast, others give tips on using Dehya’s current skill set. Considering that the character has only just been released to players, it can be assumed that an enormous change will be made after a period of time, so players may want to find a way to best use Dehya’s Constellation to make the most of the Desert Mercenary.
Genshin Impact can now be played on PS4, PS5, Mobile, and PC. A version for the Switch is in the works.
