Goals, Obstacles, Rewards in Genshin Impact

A game that I’ve been playing recently is Genshin Impact, released in 2020 for mobile and PS4.

The main goal of Genshin Impact isn’t entirely defined as the game is ongoing , with multiple events and story quests being released alongside updates. As a result of this, while playing a person will find themselves creating lot of their own personal goals they want to achieve. For example, my personal goal in the game is to level up my favorite characters to their max potential which requires a lot of in game grinding to get the materials needed in order to upgrade said characters.

There exists a system present in the game called “resin,” which is consumed whenever a player claims rewards from weekly bosses and dungeons. Without resin you can’t claim the needed materials to upgrade your equipment and characters. Resin exists as an obstacle and is regained by waiting real life minutes for resin to be regenerated. The resin system is loathed by many players because when you run out of resin you are essentially locked out of claiming rewards and you lose incentive to keep playing the game until your resin is regenerated again.


The reward in the game may depend on each player, but for me it’s seeing my characters get stronger as a result of my grinding for materials , and being able to clear hard content because of how strong they became.

Goals, Obstacles, and Rewards in Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact is an open-world action game developed and published by miHoYo. It was released on September 28, 2020, being free to play and available through PC, Mobile, and and PlayStation 4.

Goals

The goal of this game is basically the main story line. You may select either the sister or the brother of the twins, and the story makes you travel through the world trying to find your sibling. You’ll need to travel through regions, though only two are available at the moment. The game encourages the player to explore the map, as it is a way to gain rewards and experience for your Adventurer’s Level.

Obstacles

An obstacle in your game is your Adventurer’s Level. It is your overall level, as it impacts your own world, no one else’s. If your level is too low, you cannot continue the main story quest as it has restrictions.

Rewards

As you level up and continue to explore, you’ll see that there are a lot of chests, perhaps locked behind a combat scenario or a puzzle. Some may be unlocked already, as the only restriction is to find it. After completing the task, the lock around the chest disappears, allowing you to take everything it holds. Your world also becomes increasingly difficult as it scales with your Adventurer’s Level, though that also means you’ll be able to receive higher tier drops from the monsters and opponents you slay. You can also gain special currency, used to gain a chance to get a new character or weapon via gatcha.

The goal is for the attackers to capture the payload and escort it to the destination before the time is up. The defending team has to stop the payload getting to the destination until the time is up.
The obstacle in this game is to fight against another team and stop them from attacking/defending. In this screenshot, I’m playing a Control map and I had to defeat all the enemies at point to capture it.
The rewards are gaining XP to level up. Also medals (Gold, Silver and Bronze) are given to the top three best-performing members of a team and they are given based on the categories on the final scoreboard: Eliminations, Objective Kills, Objective Time, Damage Done, Healing Done.
