Is anyone else feeling overwhelmed with how much there is to do in the game right now? It would have been different back during release when I had no problem playing the game for long hours daily until I used up all the content and had to rely on only resin and daily commissions, but I feel like my foot is on the back burner right now. I never did finish all the quests and exploration in 2.0 before we have a new patch here -- which was partially on purpose, granted. I really can't choose to do that in 2.1, though, given that there are bosses with character materials or weekly talent items that I can't just let slip through the cracks.

Plus the number of world events have me constantly trying to track everything that's been happening during these opening seven weeks while simultaneously poking around the world before everyone spoils all the quests for me and doing all my regular daily stuff that existed beforehand. Not to mention new characters and new artifacts means I want to put more time into a focus on farming, but I've barely touched my stockpile of fragile resins because I just haven't been motivated to continue for that long.

It's not that long hours of Genshin is bad. Many games demand more of your time. But we're suffering whiplash for the second time. And I'm not sure if going from too little to too much to do is better or worse than the other way around. It was a brutal transition the first time. It's rough this time around, too, and the pendulum will likely swing back the other way before long. And this is coming at a time when my other major game is asking for more time and I'm also trying to remember what it was like to play other games. To say nothing of RL demands.
