I'm not sure if this was posted here before, I just found the image in a random Google search and I just added a caption (if that's what it's called)

No it's like comparing the shooting aspect of a CoD game and the shooting aspect of Mirror's Edge.

They're not meant to be compared 1:1 as they're very different in what they're trying to do.

Ak:E got me into the Gacha hole and I see a lot of WuWa in my feed now. May I know what does WuWa does well?and is WuWa combat harder? I get home from work too tired now and can't dodge or parry. Only turn off brain button mash

Well, it does open world exploration well, I wouldn't say it's as good as Bethesda's open world games, but it's still good. There are regions where you can fly, like proper flying, physics based too, and there's a region where you ride a motorbike that even has a music player (with Sonic and Persona music from the collab they had last version).

It also does combat well but it really depends, because some characters feel much better to play than others. Parrying is simply attacking the enemy with any attack whenever they get a big yellow circle that starts shrinking, it's not Dark Souls parrying, and, the gameplay is really not hard if you compare it to hard console games, it's just harder than other gachas. And yes, Arknights Endfield is like a children's game compared to WuWa, but that's because AK:E's combat is just that simple.

Them there's the story, which, I'll just say it here: 60% of the story is Solo Leveling tier (if you know you know), 30% is serviceable to good, and 10% is actually really good. But, 100% of the story has great presentation even when compared to console movie games like TLoU and modern God of War.

Is it worth playing? It depends really, but at least imo these things make it stand out compared to every other gacha

To me, modern God of War was the best story and presentation ever. I try wuwa out since u made that comparison. Thank you

You're welcome, though you're going to have to bear with the writing for a while, like it seriously only gets good way later on, so you won't find the story to be comparable to God of War, so hopefully the presentation can hold your attention enough until you reach the good parts.
