Why being ragebait CC is bad? Because once you become one you have only two routes.
1. You either can't handle community you taunted and remove yourself from media
2. Or you handle them, but with great cost of peace. You suddenly become centre of toxicity. Forever.
There is no way back.

Not beating rent free allegations. This is what am I talking about and this is the thing pathetic wuwa community keeps denying. Hoyo lives rent free in their head. Never moves on. Treats them like ex-wife. This is why I treat the game and it's community differently, because wuwa community is a circus.

Even if my opinion about Wuwa changed, it is not true about community. Wuwa's community and CCs are still dogshit. They should really drop the drama farming and stop allowing genshin living rent free in their head and just focus on wuwa itself, ok?

So...I played both Genshin 5.3 and Wuwa 2.0 stories. What can I say? Even as a day 1 hoyoshill...I really can't defend genshin here. 5.3 was complete slop. I was surprised by Wuwa's 2.0.
I know wuwa community really likes to compare games, it's in their blood, so why not for me to imitate them as well? So let's do it. (Ratings: wuwa score first vs genshin score second)
Characters(7/10 vs 5/10) - Charlotta/Zani/Roccia/Brant are definitely improvement of whatever they had pre-2.0, even if they felt slightly underdeveloped. Relatively to genshin they're way better. Only Citlali gets close to them, but Citlali is Natlan's best designed character and even she feels weaker compared to for example Charlotta, but they're close. Mavuika felt like an average mary sue character cooked by 12 years old teenager. The only character which carried 5.3 is Capitano and he is not even Natlanian, bruh. Gameplay was it is not a question, wuwa always had better gameplay, it was like this since 1.0
Music(9/10 vs 5/10) - Ok, first time ever Wuwa beats genshin here. Genshin only cooked one weekly boss music and even it felt mid. It is downgrade of their previous works. Meanwhile wuwa dropped a lot of new orchestral and opera stuff and it sounded very good, can't even say anything bad about it really. Before 2.0 wuwa's music didn't exist, it was that bad, yes.
Story(7/10 vs 4/10) - Natlan is complete slop. It's just average shonen fan story cooked by 12 year old after watching naruto. I didn't feel anything, I just wanna clear my memory, what an insane downgrade of Fontaine. Again, Natlan was hard carried by Capitano. Wuwa on other was good but...It's challenging to follow, I'm still processing what is 2.0 story even about? I kinda got vivy or atomic heart vibes, where robots who serves humans suddenly go berserk against them? And we're trying to solve the issue? And on top of that they threw too many other topics as well, they should slowdown. Anyways, wuwa still has problems, but it's definitely improvement.
Voices(10/10 vs 10/10 JP, no ratings for EN) - I can't say anything bad about VAs, they both cooked hard. Out of question
Graphics & Optimization(9/10 vs 9/10) - Well, well, well. Wuwa finally became almost perfectly optimized game just like genshin. Both run smoothly. Both look good in their own ways. No more buggering or stuttering waves, finally.
Bosses & Enemies(10/10 vs 5/10) - Another wuwa W. New enemies have better design, better mechanics, animations, and there are overall more enemies themselves. Genshin's weekly dragon already loses to Wuwa's dragon dirge in terms of everything, except maybe design. Same stays for Lorelei and Phrolova.
Map & Locations, Rinascita vs Natlan(9/10 vs 3/10): Natlan looks very bad, it's all stones and walls, super boring. On other hand Rinascita goes very hard, I'd say it can even beat Fontaine, they definitely locked in here, cities look good, outside of cities as well, good job, kuro.
Dialogues(8/10 vs 4/10) - Wuwa again cooked hard with dialogues, especially facial expressions, animations, the voice direction, NPCs and etc. Everything felt real and immersive. Can't say the same about Genshin, they again dropped the ball, nothing changed. They put side quest effort to archon quest and it's sad.
QoL(Cinema vs Cinema): Thank YOU kuro for allowing me to change to male rover, now I can finally enjoy Gathering Wives, good, good. Another insane QoL is portable alchemy table. But genshin got something better than Wuwa didn't - boss instant-respawn after claiming rewards. Cmon, wuwa, do the thing.
And finally hot take - Phrolova > Ronova, enough said.
As you can see, no matter from which side I look wuwa 2.0 clears 5.3 genshin. I really can't defend it even as a braindead hoyoshill. Try harder, hoyo.
So what is overall score for both patches?
I rate genshin 5/10, it was garbage, mid at max.
I rate wuwa 8/10, I enjoyed it pretty much, but there is room for improvement, especially story.
In conclusion: After 2.0 my opinion about wuwa changed. Before 2.0 I still think it was garbage, but 2.0 wuwa is solid gacha game. Keep cooking.
Genshin disappointed me. Quality of Fontaine and Sumeru - gone.

My hardware is 8 years old, Radeon Sapphire RX 570. You know what is funny?
Wuthering Waves, UE5 game runs on perfect 60 FPS with max graphics, super smooth on this card.
Fortnite UE5 game 30 FPS, on MINIMAL graphics, everything is blurry, stuttery.
Wuwa max graphics leaves Fortnite max graphics behind by a gigantic margin.
Lesson learned - Hardware and Engine NEVER was and will be a problem, never. If game's optimization is ass, it's 100%, not even 99.99%, 100% DEVS fault, not even their management's. It's their personal Skill Issue.
Pre 2.0 Wuwa was trash as well, but they fixed literally everything in 2.0+, even I, braindead hoyoshill can give big props to this.
Fortnite gave me levels of reality check I've never imagined before.

After looking at how bad is Fortnite optimized with this goofy artstyle I kinda regret bashing Wuwa optimization. It runs smoothly while looking 10 times more detailed. It is definitive proof that gacha players all this time had standards.

Ok, somehow visually such a simple looking game as Fortnite eats my PC alive. This is issue number one.
Gameplay loop...Slow as hell, I suppose such is nature of battle royales. This is issue number two.
No, this game is not worth it.

After hearing that my OG #1 favorite girl Hatsune Miku is appearing in Fortnite I consider to give this game a shot.

Natlan AQ was mid. Power of friendship, sacrifices, I felt like watching average 2010's mainstream shonen ngl.
Fontaine still stays #1 and Sumeru #2, those two are close each other and were peak of genshin's story writing.
But Natlan...is not it.
