Can someone explain to me why Honkai: Star Rail is treated as something other than trash? I keep seeing posts about it, all over. (lemmynsfw.com)

It's a free-to-play mobile gacha game. Therefore, it is trash. That point simply cannot be argued. It's not up for debate. If you're here to debate that point, please don't even bother. All mobile games are trash. All free-to-play games are trash. All gacha games are trash. Again: there is no debate about that.

Having gotten that out of the way: why are so many people under the false impression that this SPECIFIC trash game is somehow more than trash?

Does it have particularly sexy anime girls? Particularly sexy anime prettyboys? Cool mechs or something? Does it very sadly contain core elements of gameplay that would be fun in a non-trash setting?

Help me out, here.

Oh, so I'm supposed to know EXACTLY which kind of reptilian monster you are?

Doesn't matter to me. You're not a human. You're an unfeeling beast, without the emotional capacity to care for other people. You've admitted that much, and that's all I need to know. Everything else you've said makes total sense, now.
