The game still is mostly single player. But, as most gacha games, Genshin Impact is online-only, mostly so that you couldn’t cheat in any resources you want without paying them a hefty price.
My experience with Genshin Impact:
-Tried it (Only the starter region, Mondstadt), thought it was healthily dynamic, but ultimately very childish
-Left it for about 2 years
-Then my gf has shown me what goes beyond and I had to accept the game has merits
The storytelling beyond Mondstadt gets a more serious turn, presents interesting and divisive dilemmas and unexpected plot twists - so much so that I wouldn’t recommend it to children, actually. The battle mechanics also change and deepen as you unlock new characters and visit new regions.
Still, gacha mechanics heavily ruin the game for me. I’m here for the story, not the endless casino. Wish I would get my own private server up and running at some point in the future to remove these mechanics and just play to my heart’s content.
Last I played the game was single player… fuck these companies man
