Nah, this specific sort of nerd doesn’t hold online military shooters in much regard, thinking they’re for kids and normies. They consider themselves as having more patrician, refined tastes. (Insert wanking motion here) Their ideal game would be made in Japan, be mechanically complex and have lots of fan service aimed at horny straight dudes
Just no. First, Genshin is made in China. Second, Genshin is not even close to being horny enough for what that kind of gamer would want in their games. (Not defending Genshin… just highlighting that there are a ton of MUCH hornier games)

And honestly that take still pisses me off-- not with you, with the kind of kyles that have that take but for all the wrong reasons. Me, I feel disgust in the idea of making literal war, in our world into a game. The gamification of imperialism turns my stomach in ways that I can’t even sufficiently articulate; and I’d have inordinately more respect for the shooter space, first- and third-person, if it stayed in the creative, wholly-fictional spaces that birthed it. The Dooms, the Quakes, the Unreals, hell, even the Halos because even while Halo’s military slop too, they were (once) futuristic, hard sci-fi, and bordering on apocalyptic.
I have none for the CoDs, the Battlefields, the Armas, or whatever the fuck else multicam-infected gamified-atrocity pentagon-foreshadowing horseshit that EA wants to shit onto the average kyle’s plate. But the average kyle isn’t thinking that way about it. I fuckin hate 'em.
G*mers yearn for Battlefield 69 with generic operator guy and even less combined arms and lesser enjoyable gameplay.
