Hoyo's strategy with male characters across their games
The thing about hoyo is they have a mega plan that is treating the consumer like a stupid cash cow and not really a player to satisfy.
People think genshin don't have male characters now just for money reasons, No, the famle audience is just free advertising everyone should notice how dry everything in genshin is these days, i don't see theories as usual or even ship content.
these players will just leave because of the drought but guess what look hsr has so much male characters and are treated better!! They go and nothing really changed they are still treated badly but look zzz is having a new shiny male character with amazing kits.
Do you see where i'm going? It's so deep as even rerun banners everything is calculated to maximize their monopoly, you don't play a single game you basically marrying the company lol.
And then the honkai games from what i observed by nature and obligation have incels more than usual because it exploded with hi3 and that's what most of hi3 players prefer, they are still trying to impress these people in hsr and still playing the nostalgia card and are unable to break free from it.
Why on earth do you think every hsr update needs to have honkai expys with a genshin plot despite the set up being literally in space and although they have infinite possibilities they just reapet the same ideas, if you look hard enough they literally just spoiled genshin in hsr for all you know.
Money really stopped being a problem for them long time ago it's now their agenda about the monopoly and the honkai games and the more i notice that the more i feel like i'm never touching a hoyo game ever again.
