The return of General King Yuan in the universe of “Honkai: Star Rail” has been met with varying reactions from the game’s community members. A post made by Kxti0 announcing the General’s return sparked intriguing discussions amongst players.
Highlights from the Discussion
- Axerisk comments on the unexpected benefits he’s accrued. He admits to easily obtaining crit rate and crit damage. While the benefits might seem great on the surface, they come with a downside—they’re all in the dot set.
- Wet_blanket_tinfoil expressed dissatisfaction branding the game as a ‘bad game’ because of what he calls reverse powercreep.
- Tennoskoom_ gave insight into the shifting opinions about the game. He humorously notes that JY mains’ views on the prydwen tier list range from it being ‘misinformation’ to ‘great’ based on JY’s placement.
Player Loyalty Vs Game Mechanics
Interestingly, some like marniconuke would stand by General King Yuan regardless of his tier placement, which shows player attachment surpassing game mechanics. However, not everyone stands on the same ground. DavisR001 wonders if one can actually “farm the new relic” for the General, citing unsuccessful attempts.
The Return of a Foe?
