While I don’t play anymore I don’t want to lose my progress in Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3rd.
Genshin Impact will require US players to verify their age to play

I guess it’s goodbye to all the 31+ days ago people on the friends list for US players

I don‘t think they‘ll get removed, they just can‘t get into the game until they verify

Is it even possible to “play” that game anymore? Last I tried, it took 30 minutes of clicking through inane dialog before I could move, only to trigger more dialog.
They have introduced so many viable characters without significantly raising the level cap that there is no real gameplay reason to roll the gatcha, so they largely abandoned game play in favor of forcing long character interactions in attemp to sell more waifu/husbandos…

Seems like a tragedy of MMOs when they want to introduce what’s new to returners, but then deliver an avalanche of “new stuff” to people brand new to the game.

Does this apply to all Hoyoverse games? Never got into Genshin, but I enjoy Zenless Zone Zero.

They didn’t seem to explain how you’re meant to verify your age.

[Please select your age.]
And then Hoyoverse discovered there’s a lot of 1st January baby in the US.
