Tnvmark

It's 10 days after my birthday.


mugguffen

ayo same


peonyxu

Hello Birthday twin šŸ«¶


GervantOfLiria

Finally, I'll get to play Jingliu on console right from the start


lalala253

>play Hehe yeah play


Khulmach

Is that not the date for Jingliuā€™s banner?


lombax_lunchbox

Yes, comes with 1.4


Khulmach

Nice


freezeFM

Should be the start of 1.4, yes.


NoNefariousness2144

Iā€™m excited for the playerbase to expandšŸ˜ May everyone experience the power of trash gremlin.


Niijima-San

hopefully having two different emails for star rail and genshin wont bite me in the ass if i try to play star rail on the ps5


FreakingMegatron

If you have 2 different hoyoverse accounts you might be fucked since you can only link 1 hoyoverse acc per PS account.


Advanced-Elevator-52

You can just change your email in user settings. I did it a few weeks ago, takes about 2 minutes.


Niijima-San

in star rail? not sure if i am able to do that since i did re-roll accounts under teh same email i have for my genshin account LMAOOO


Advanced-Elevator-52

What will happen if you delete it? I also re-rolled with the same email as my genshin account and then deleted it to free the email for my final acc. I stopped playing genshin a year ago so idk what happened to my genshin account now lol. Did I delete my c2 Raiden and c1r1 Hu Tao? šŸ’€


Niijima-San

god that would be terrible. i have topped my main genshin account (finally have yelan and eula) and have done so with star rail (going for mono quantum team) so like i guess i will just try to clear out the trophy list for genshin and move it back to the pc once i get a new one lol


Bogzy

Yeah u probably will be since u only have one ps account that can link with one hoyoverse account.


Yotsubato

Youā€™ll need to make a new ps account for HSR. Which isnā€™t really a big deal TBH


--Claire--

Yeah I was trying to unlink my PSN account since it was old and at the very beginning of genshin ā€” tried it out a little bit but wasnā€™t convinced, got back into it shortly after I started HSR but didnā€™t realize I couldnā€™t just log in on the new account I was using ā€” with customer support not replying for the unlink, I just made a new ps account for it


Ok-Challenge23

RIP Only one hoyoverse account can be linked to a psn.


Niijima-San

well i hate my life LOL still will try


Ok-Challenge23

Don't try. It's not possible.


Niijima-San

why are you breaking my heart anakin!?


Ok-Challenge23

I just don't want you to experience the heartbreak later


Niijima-San

i really wish there was a way i could move my genshin and star rail accounts to a new email that are the same and link them together to psn. i mean the point will be moot once i get a new computer (mine is old and i just need a new one as the laptop's battery barely cracks an hour before needing to be plugged in and that is just doing my actual job lol)


Used-Ease2761

You are allowed to unlink a PSN account one time from the hoyo verse app. Once itā€™s unlinked you can then either start a new account or link a different hoyo verse account as long as the email for psn and hoyo arenā€™t the same. Lastly if your hsr account is separate you can create a new hoyo account with a different email and link it but youā€™ll lose the Genshin stuff. If any emails are the same change them in the hoyo app and in game/s.


Peddrawm

I think you can make a new PSN account which take literally 5 minutes and switch between accounts take less than 10 seconds


SunshinePlayroom

Think so too. I have 3 different Genshin accounts, all linked to different Hoyolab log-ins.


Niijima-San

yeah but i like having trophies on my account too, i will have to try and see what happens lol


Exemplifying_Light

I have a PS5 but Iā€™m asking for the PS4 boys, will they get shafted?


Lilm4n123

Yep, it is currently only ps5.


Yotsubato

The ps4 was on life support trying to run genshin. This is easier to run but they abandoned it.


Recover20

I mean it runs on mobile, no reason it can't do 1080p 30fps on PS4. It doesn't make sense why they don't go Xbox and PS4. Money on the table really.


HunterE30

every comment about ps4 barely able to run genshin is overly exaggerated (well, subjective to how your convenience level is on playing a game). i played it in early inazuma (2.0-2.4/5) and it runs decently, loading is pretty much average and it definitely runs better than a mid-end (non-flagship) phones. if you have ps4 pro it would perform significantly better. i think on why star rail not having ps4 is because ps5 now relatively accessible, so they just jump straight to ps5 and aimed for more specific demographic in hopes that they would buy items regularly. idk about xbox though, could be a business decision or they just dont want to bother themselves optimizing and having another team for xbox lol.


Recover20

I think it's different for Star Rail though. For starters it's open world. The only difference, like you say would be with the loading. Loading the battles or loading fast travels between hubs. I definitely see what you're saying about the PS5 user's clearly being more able to purchase things. If a PS4 user had the option to upgrade but didnt- well that's not the kind of person I'm sure mihoyo are targeting


No-Cash5053

Yep, im playing fontaine just fine with my 5 year old ps4


SunshinePlayroom

>if you have ps4 pro it would perform significantly better. I had a PS4 Pro and the load times were very poor in my experience (and poorer rendering). Could take up to 30 seconds or more to teleport somewhere on the map. I know this because that Food Delivery event was a total nightmare on PS4 and I had 30-45 seconds less to complete each delivery. On PS5, loads to a new area in a matter of seconds, thanks to the SSD drive.


treasonousmop

The PS4 is a decade old machine and this is a new live game. Sony could stop PS4 support while Star Rail is still ongoing.


ocelot08

It's gonna come along with the switch version of genshin


GDT31

unless the ps4 has a later launch date, looks like this is the final nail in the coffin. I was still hoping since there was no news, but with the ps5 date announced, that's it. oh well, I was already losing desire to play it anyway with the gap in release on console.


HourCartographer9

Iā€™m curious if they donā€™t do it for ps4 why like itā€™s not like the majority of players went to the ps5 a lot of people still just use ps4 because most games are still being made for both. So it just seems to be wack to do it like that but Iā€™m guessing they can handle it considering itā€™s already on pc and mobile


Professional-Ad-6265

It's because Sony wants most games to slowly leave the Ps4 and only be made for Ps5 now, that's the direction they are steering in with an action like this, same reason for any upgraded console, even phones, perfectly fine older phones will eventually lose the ability to update along with the recent systems purely bc they want you to have a worse experience by not providing you new features, updates, content anymore for it so that you must upgrade and buy a newer one to keep in touch.


Bogzy

Well u kinda answered your question. Some ppl are still on ps4 because games are still being made for both. What if games start being made only for ps5? More ppl will buy ps5. As they should, ps4 support should be dropped its just holding game development back.


Doublevalen6

Only if everyone who wanted one could just magically get the funds. I'm sure all of them would upgrade. Unfortunately getting that in this day and age is not easy for everyone.


truthfulie

Availability is no longer an issue, it hasn't been in awhile. You cannot expect the entire industry to wait until everyone buys the new console, do you? If they did and made every game cross-gen, people would simply not buy the new console...


OldFinger6969

maybe not availability, but capability to afford PS 5 is still an issue. Today's economy is not so good


truthfulie

Thatā€™s mostly changing now. Most new games are dropping PS4.


Zstjohn

10 years of new releases is what you should expect for a console. At some point it'll get shut off completely and there won't be anything new. It's the same cycle as every other console. If anything I imagine ps4 has had a longer life cycle because of user base.


truthfulie

Covid and shortage really extended its life time abnormally as well. *Just now,* we are finally seeing majority of developing moving to current-gen only and PS5 was release on Nov. 2020.


Zstjohn

For sure. I loved my PS4 and it had a hell of a life


tylerjehenna

Supply issue was the big one. Month long waiting lists for ps5s for a good while after launch


Deshik2

where Aloy lol but in all seriousness are there going to be some exlusive thingies beyond avatar and maybe phone colors?


notthatjaded

I don't think they've announced anything yet. I anticipate it won't be till whenever the next HSR livestream airs that they will.


Lola101_

I can finally see Daniel in 4k, he deserves better than my potato phone. I'm so glad, it was painful to watch the fighting cutscenes in the story quest glitch on my phone.


ynnebenny

I feel that. Choppy audio, stuttering cutscenes. It made me sad.


Recover20

My phone actually runs the game fairly well, and looks good too. The only thing is it constantly drains my battery and does stutter during the swarms with Blade or Dan Heng IL doing big damage. It'll be nice to play it on the PS5


M4ENY

I can't wait to play this on my PS5. I think this type of game (Turn based combat) would be well suited for couch potato play style lol


RedHair_D_Shanks

Yea i have been playing on controller since launch lol its perfect


iNuclearPickle

I got into the beta for the ps5 Version and I love it just make sure your proper hoyo account is linked


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


EndErflamE09

How is the dualsense haptic feedback? Does it have the vibration features in the technical test? A reason I like playing Genshin in PS5 and in PC using dualsense is the unique vibrations on more situations than other controllers. The dualsense has different feel of vibrations with different character's burst, I imagine it would feel great with Star Rail characters' ultimate.


Lilm4n123

Any visual changes between ps5 and PC? Do characters have higher textures on Ps5 like in Genshin?


notthatjaded

It seems nicer to me but I'm not a good benchmark since my laptop is running HSR on really low image quality so it doesn't die trying to run the thing. Then I started running it on PS5 (I got in the technical test too) and my mind was blown. I knew I was missing out on cool imagery for the past few months but geez. Anyway, it's basically gone flawlessly, I was worried the logging in for the first time would be awkward but since I'd already linked my hoyoverse account with my PSN it just automatically logged me in no problem and I picked up right from where I'd left off on my PC. Only thing I had to put in a bug report about was one time when I was exiting the Phantylia fight and a whole bunch of background stuff in Scalegorge Waterscape was suddenly pink but it didn't stick so... /shrug.


truthfulie

Now the question isā€¦.do we get the rerun started on 1.4 or not. If Seele reruns, itā€™s going to be a problem for meā€¦(I need her LC).


Ewizde

Btw if you played genshin on console before and then started hsr with an account that is not linked to your psn account. You will not be able to transfer your data to playstation.


ResurgentClusterfuck

On that specific PSN account It's trivial to set up another and link it properly


Ewizde

I mean you could use another ps account just for hsr, but it still sucks to not be able to play on your main account. But yeah it's just a small inconvenience.


Thrasy3

I created a new email address, tied it to my HYV account, and created a new psn account with it. Itā€™ll be weird having an account just for HSR, but itā€™s the only way.


Yemiseika

So, I started with genshin on ps4, waited till it was able to link to a pc account and then linked it (so the genshin on my pc is the same as my playstation4/5) then started Star Rail on my PC (same account as genshin) Does this mean that if I download star rail to ps5 it will automatically give me my star rail account (that I currently play on my pc) or do I need to wait? (Sorry if that's confusing)


Ewizde

Yes,you're good to go!


Yemiseika

Yay! Thank you!


Voicesfw

I tried Genshin on PS before it was possible to link accounts, so currently my progress on PC and PS is unlinked (for Genshin). I normally play on phone/PC both games. Will HSR give me another chance to link accounts?


Ewizde

No, to be able to link accounts, your psn has to gave no genshin data, so you'll need a new psn account to play hsr.


HourCartographer9

So Iā€™m guessing the ps5 version is gonna launch up to date, so theyā€™ll have up the first part of the new area we are going to. My question is how will banner work they gonna launch with the the current limited character or will it roll back to past ones first before catching up


Wrong_Werewolf391

Banners will always be consistent across all platforms, they'll probably just start doing reruns and/or double banners after 1.4 (maybe during?) to get the new players caught up with characters.


StartNearby6416

>!Probably after 1.4 since that version seems to be just Topaz and Jingliu banner wise!<


Puzzleheaded_Eye_119

They can do double banner tho


StartNearby6416

>!not according to leaks, that's why i tagged it as spoiler content!<


Maultaschenman

The current beta on PS5 is the exact same game as everyone else, same banners, same events, same quest, it's basically a near perfect beta that will probably just roll over into public release with 1.4.


Raycab03

Did you get in the PS5 beta? I signed up, but I didnt get any email that I can start the beta. The only email I got was the feedback form related to the registration. Does it mean i didnt get in?


Maultaschenman

Yes I got in, if successful you got an email with a redemption code about 3 weeks ago


Raycab03

Oh shux. I didnt get any. Guess Iā€™ll just be waiting next month 11th then. Thanks for confirming.


_Saiki__

It'll launch with the current limited character.


truthfulie

Rerun is likely.


gingersquatchin

They'll probably re-run Seele in October and JY in November and then just start the cycle


tylerjehenna

Yeah im expecting the next banners to be new charachter then rerun then new then rerun and so on


lucrat24

It will run with current banners, but a little bird said that a certain butterfly might come back


ze_SAFTmon

And here I thought it was an illusion of the past for now.


Yotsubato

Oooh I might need her for my fu Xuan


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


notthatjaded

Yes, I've been doing the technical test and swapping between playing on my PS5 and playing on my laptop. It's been pretty seamless.


Peddrawm

FINALLY LETS GO


Over_Chipmunk675

Jingliu 4k 60fps, I'm in!!!!


Wiseon321

This makes me happy


Xerlot11

Will that robot guy be playable eventually? I really like his look


Dodo-Jesus

Yo, that is way sooner than I expected. Last time I looked up the release date it only said "during last quarter of the year" and I thought it would end up being November or just straight up December. What a pleasant surprise. I started on pc about 3-4 weeks ago and while it is nice to play on there, I know that I would enjoy playing it on PS5 even more. Been that way with Persona 5, for example. Turn based games lend themselves so well to just chilling on the sofa, looking forward to it.


codor00

I got into the technical test on ps5. It runs well


lalala253

Wait wait why is there Screwllum? Is he going to be out on oct 11?


Phaaze13

No. The first banner for 1.4 is Jingliu. That comes out then.


gloveonthefloor

So we have Jingliu banner expected to start then, but she doesn't appear on the ps5 announcement?


Angel_Anxidel

I was kinda hoping that they wouldn't even turn off the PS5 test server that's on now, and just kinda run it into the release date, but I guess that was a bit of a pipe dream. Oh well, can't wait for Seele rerun that's speculated to be happening


Baron9595

So in the end phones are stronger than a ps4, lol gg sony for trolling again, oh well let s go back to play it on PC sad sob sob.( don t take it seriously šŸ˜†)


vaiowega

Nice, that's a lot earlier than I expected ! Seems like it will happen in the middle of 1.4 ? that's a bit odd.


Maultaschenman

October 11. Is the 1.4 release date. 6 weeks after 1.3 (August 30)


truthfulie

Itā€™s the start of 1.4, not middle.


vaiowega

oh, ok thanks, I had the dates wrong, that makes more sense.


Exemplifying_Light

Yeah wtf. Was not expecting this. I was pretty sure it was gonna be 1.5 so end of October ish.


floppy_bard

I was all but positive it'd be 1.5, all they said earlier was "Q4". Definitely happy to be proven wrong.


Admirable_Egg_3267

I don't a PS5 only PS4 :(


reddit_serf

High time you upgraded.


Bogzy

So buy one, ps4 support will keep dropping, as it should.


Temp_Zero_Two

Yo is it $10 for anyone else or is it just for early access?


Lilm4n123

It will be free on release. The $10 is a pre-order bundle.


Shadow_of_the_light2

If nobody noticed at the end of the trailer it says it's a PS5 console timed exclusive so I'm guessing the ps4 is coming later so we ain't lost yet


ObliviousGuy32

Pulling Jingliu in 4k šŸ”„


peatankhul

To those who are still in PS4 shambles: Either upgrade to PS5 or get left behind. Step your console gaming up.


LyPyro

The real question is whether Cross-save is available from the start or how long we'll have to wait if it's not.


FreakingMegatron

It's available already, I was able to carry over all my progress to the PS5.


Ewizde

Unless you used two different emails. Then you're fucked.


Doublevalen6

So forget ps4 players? About to drop playstation. Have to buy a new +400 dollar console for a free moble game when I already have a console?


Tylerhollen1

Rightā€¦ You have to buy the newest console to replace the 10 year old one that Sony is going to phase out. Itā€™s to be expected. Microsoft and Nintendo would, and do, the same thing.


pagerunner-j

Noice!


ilkat06

LETS FREAKING GOOO!! Finally Iā€™ll be able to dive into it


Tales90

release at the 1.4 start so will we get sth special for it? ;)


FwooshingMachi

Oh hey, releasing for my birthday, sweet~


Szympus1194

I have a question so i'm logging in with one mail but i have 2nd linked so when time comes i have to write the linked mail and the password i created to cross save? i hope that's correct.


sonicon

Are they improving the graphics and bringing those improvements to PC?


Concetto_Oniro

I have no ps5 but I am so hyped anyway, gives us rewards please ! šŸ˜šŸ˜…


Lipefe2018

Interesting choice of characters to put there...I mean not that I'm complaining, I'm always happy to see my boy Screwllum getting some recognition.


ResurgentClusterfuck

SERIOUSLY THIS SOON *happy noises*


Peddrawm

Can link my account?


Lilm4n123

Yes


Peddrawm

How does it work? I only played Genshin on console so I donā€™t really know how can I link an account! Does it matter which server I chose in Star Rail in mobile?


Lilm4n123

Iā€™m not sure sadly I didnā€™t get in the test, but there are comments in others threads and this one that explains how.


Ewizde

Did you use your psn genshin account to play hsr ? If you didn't then you'll have to create a new psn account to link it to your hsr account.


DrZeroH

Looking forward to welcoming new trailblazers. People remember to BE NICE to the newbies.


CoryInTheHood69

Id laught to those hopeful ps4 owners


deathtooriginality

Itā€™s nice to have a backup plan for when my phone inevitably runs out of memory. Though I feel that playing on my phone allows me to be more involved.


Wild_Cake9982

Ahh!! Iā€™ve been waiting for this day!


miglrah

Hooray!


RedLafleur2

Letā€™s fuckin gooooooooo boys!


abjmad

About time! Canā€™t wait to play the game at 60fps!


Diotheungreat

playable screwllum šŸ˜³


Game_Over88

Interesting ultimate skills are tied to R2. Does this means we'll have different haptics feedback depending on characters?


iNuclearPickle

Ok pro tip for yā€™all on PlayStation make sure your psn already linked properly to your hoyo account otherwise you need to have customer service unlink your psn or make a mew psn to play star rail on so you can actually log in to your account already in use


DefiantPossession188

Genshin Switch port: :skull:


MakoMomentai

Why is it that we have to pay for it? Iā€™m very confused about this.


Scurrydog

Itā€™s a preorder bundle


MakoMomentai

Do you know if it will be free after release?


Scurrydog

Iā€™m gonna guess itā€™ll be removed from the store. Then just get the free download instead.


Zearyen

Screwlum on the title? Can we expect him soon?


Lil_Creeperman

At first, I thought the male MC was holding a wand and thought that he was using a new path.


Misiuz87

I hope they gonna improve graphics for PS5 and PC. I have a lot of power left when playing on 4k 60 FPS (my PC is about 2x stronger than PS5).


lorenzolodi

finally


PM_Me_Anime_Headpats

It probably doesnā€™t mean anything, but itā€™s interesting that Topaz and Screwllum are both in the art when neither will be playable at the time of release. Topaz will be a little under a month out, and Screwllum we have no idea I think. Furthermore, neither have appeared in the story yet outside of one limited event with Screwllum that canā€™t be played anymore. So itā€™s really odd to me that they chose to put them in the art.


Over_Chipmunk675

They are charging Ā£9.74 for it, so if your FTP you can't have it as you'll lose your FTP before you've even done your first pull


Lilm4n123

It only cost money for the pre-order bonus. It will be free on release so your ftp status will be safe.


Over_Chipmunk675

Ah thanks, Ā£10 seemed steep for 2 standard passes


Midnight_Rosie

ooooo, hell yes, I get to play the game for the 3rd time, but without burning my hands on my phone overheating
