In an unexpected turn of events, it seems that fans of Genshin Impact were, in noteworthy fashion, taken by surpirse at the array of characters that emerged in the game during the year 2023.

Summary

  • In a sentiment shared by many, user thesqrrootof4is2 humorously revealed their astonishment at the tracking of time in Genshin Impact, remarking, ‘I didn’t realize we went through 2023 without getting a new Electro Character.’

  • Apart from the startling absence of new Electro characters, another intriguing observation came from MaJuV, who noted the balanced nature of the 2023 character roster, stating, ‘What a balanced year. Male Vs Female units: 8 vs 8. 5\* Vs 4\*: 8 Vs 8.’

  • It’s undeniable that 2023 was a year of surprises and revelations concerning the game’s unfolding narrative and the introduction of new characters.

A Look into the Future

The announcement that ‘Chevreuse will be in 2024’ by GKP_light has fans eagerly anticipating the game’s upcoming additions. As we wait for the next characters to appear on our screens, this prediction brings a spark of excitement into the conversation. Will 2024 indeed be the year of Chevreuse? Only time will tell.

Reminiscing about the Past

For some, the discussion stirred a sense of nostalgia. peppermint-hollows felt an acute longing for the days of new Sumeru characters, making the observation, ‘Hard to believe we were still getting new Sumeru characters at the beginning of the year. The beginning of Sumeru feels like forever ago already lol.’ This shared feeling of nostalgia adds an undercurrent of wistfulness to our look-back on 2023.

The Year of Dendro

Perhaps the most recognizable impact from the year was derived from the rise of the Dendro – a sentiment aptly put as ‘Truly a dendro year’ by Odd-Design-8261. It’s an important point to ponder, as the dominance of Dendro characters brings a thought-provoking shift in the game’s dynamics, character personalities, and storyline development.

The characters of Genshin Impact continue to leave a comprehensive and unforgettable mark on the gaming community. The balanced roster, nostalgia for the past, and eager anticipation for the future represent the fluid and engaging nature of the game. As we bid adieu to the eventful year of 2023, we look forward to the excitement that 2024 has to offer.
