Honkai Star Rail just passed the one-year mark and I'm massively impressed with it. I don't often play games on mobile and this is only the second gacha I've put significant time into (the first being Final Fantasy Record Keeper). I honestly didn't know my four year old, not-flagship phone could run something like this. I guess there's a reason Hoyo has enough money to buy a small country.

The battle system is crazy good. Turn based without rounds is my favorite RPG battle system, and this might be the best version of it I've seen. The presentation's great. The story and the writing is a little weird.

I wish it didn't throw a million currencies and play modes at me, but I guess that's the genre (or just F2P in general these days). Looking forward to when I can sort all that stuff out in my head so I'm not wasting time on it when I get a chance to open it.
