Here, Genshin Impact is being updated again. I’ve heard that the new character Sinoning will be on the scene in version 5.1. What rock system, what one-handed sword, anyway, it sounds a bit complicated, who cares? In fact, everyone knows that these new characters are like small stalls on the street, changing the soup but not the medicine, just like the candies eaten during the Chinese New Year – new packaging, original flavor.
But to be honest, Sinoning, I’m a little interested in her. Don’t look at her like this, just hearing the name, you know she’s a bit deep character. She’s a rock system, can reduce the enemy’s elemental resistance, and her one-handed sword skills are also acceptable. Otherwise, how can I say that the settings of these game characters always give people a feeling of “she seems to be very powerful, but you still don’t know how to use her”. Today she can reduce resistance, tomorrow she will replenish your blood, and the day after tomorrow she may be a shield-breaking monster. It seems that there is always a lack of a clear menu, which makes people confused.
As for the update of the card pool, this time there is a new character, Sinoning, and an old friend, Chiori. Originally, I didn’t have any special feelings about Chiori. After all, I have seen her two or three times. Such a repetitive character really can’t arouse the excitement of us “old players”. But Sinoning is different. She gives people the feeling that she is like a hidden master, hiding in a corner that you can’t see. When she suddenly jumps out, it’s like the old lady at the entrance of the village suddenly tells you that you can use less oil in cooking today, but you find that it tastes really good after eating. Delicate and unobtrusive.
However, Nashida and Walnut in the second half of the card pool, I have to admit that these two are a bit eye-catching. If you say that they are like the old four dishes in home cooking, it’s not an exaggeration. Who doesn’t like Walnut’s lively energy? It’s another fire character. The violent level of playing is simply irresistible. I can’t help wanting to give her a bite. However, Nashida’s reprint this time makes me feel a little complicated. She is so smart and has endless wisdom, but you always feel that she lacks something, not as real as Sinoning.
Speaking of skills, although Sinoning’s skills are not particularly complicated, her “Cat Hunting Rhythm” is quite interesting. Like a fast-running leopard, she suddenly jumps up and pounces on the enemy, which is so efficient that it makes people feel a little refreshed. Each of her moves seems simple, but it is precisely the details that require attention to detail. A character like this may not have any particularly obvious advantages in the early stage, but once you use it right, her role will be revealed little by little – just like the lazy cat in your home, which always brings you back a lot of mice.
When we play this game, what is not important? The important thing is to eventually find a partner who will accompany you to conquer the world and cross mountains and ridges. Sinoning is like a friend who silently supports you when you need it – you don’t need her to stand up in a big way, but she will give you more choices at critical moments and provide you with a solid backing.
Besides, who doesn’t want something practical in this game? For example, the Treabar platform is said to be a good place where you can save some ore and improve your characters in the game. Everyone says that this place is reliable. As for people who play games, it is a complex emotion – they want to upgrade, want to be stronger and faster, but don’t want to be too dependent. Characters and platforms like this are to help you in this process. Even if there is no large-scale movement, everyone can slowly accumulate and gradually see the results.
But to be honest, when we see these new characters appear, we still feel a little lonely. After each update, we have to invest in it and level up and brush dungeons again. Just like some small things in our daily life, we can never finish them, and there are always new things waiting for you to deal with. These updates are like a metaphor of life – you may not care much at first, but slowly you will find that it affects your view and attitude towards things, and even changes part of you.
All in all, the characters updated in version 5.1, whether it is Sinoning, Chizhi, or even the re-engraved Nashida and Hutao, are all designed to bring new experiences to players. Maybe these new characters are not perfect, but at least they can help you find a little bit of yourself in your repeated attempts, and find the partner who stands shoulder to shoulder with you in the troubled times.
