๐ฅ The highly anticipated Genshin Impact 4.4 update drops on January 31st with game-changing quality-of-life improvements that'll make every Traveler's journey smoother than a Mondstadt breeze! From revolutionary artifact management to housing system upgrades, HoYoverse finally listened to our endless wishlist โ and oh boy, does it deliver!
โก Artifact Revolution
That moment when you get a new 5โ character but dread artifact setup? Gone! The new ใFast-Equipใbutton uses community wisdom to auto-equip optimized sets โ perfect for casual players! But here's the kicker: ๐ Custom Loadouts let hardcore gamers specify exact main stats/substats priorities. Imagine swapping Xiao's Vermillion/Shimenawa sets between boss fights without manual gear-juggling!
๐ก Serenitea Pot 2.0
My teapot mains, rejoice! The revamped furnishing system now has:
-
โ Smart categorization (finally separates Liyue screens from Inazuma lamps!)
-
โ Memory function remembering last edited area
-
โ Favorite companions appearing first
No more scrolling through 300+ items to find that perfect Sumeru wall decoration!
๐ฎ Gameplay Smoothness
โข 15 TEAM SLOTS! (Up from 10)
โข Instant character trial transitions โ test multiple banners back-to-back!
โข Daily Commission reminder from Katheryne (we've all forgotten those primos at least once ๐ )
โข PC borderless window mode + optimized character models
๐ก Personal Take: The artifact loadout system feels like Christmas came early! Testing different builds for Alhaitham became 10x faster, though I low-key miss watching the old character swap animations...
FAQ Time!
โ Can I use locked artifacts in loadouts?
Yes! The system prioritizes your selected criteria regardless of lock status.
โ Do custom loadouts override fast-equip?
They work separately โ use quick setup for beginners, custom sets for endgame!
โ Will expanded team slots cost primogems?
Absolutely not! All 15 slots are free updates.
๐ฏ Final Thought: With these changes reducing menu time, maybe we'll finally have more hours to actually... y'know, play the game? ๐
