I played it back when it launched and the first bit doesn’t/didn’t give you the inkling of what’s to come.
It eases you in so by the time the game shows its true ugly self, you’re already too deep.
But yeah, I too became bored fast. It’s just mleh.
BotW exploration with a really wild combat system. Also has incredible music and interesting worldbuilding. Also has a heap of time wasting bullshit and gotcha.
I muted the game after an hour of anime noises so I have no opinion on the music. I honestly hated the combat, though. It was the worst parts of every combat system I’ve ever encountered, with slow enemy attacks coupled with slow movement and high HP that just made for long, easy slogs. Like master mode on BOTW. I enjoyed the genshin koroks and exploration, though. Those were fun.
I’ve attempted to play genshin a few times and it seems both predatory and mind-numbingly boring. What’s the appeal?
Fanservice, I think.
On PC, at least, the controls are very smooth, and the challenge bar is pretty low, so you can fairly relaxingly explore a pretty vast world.
Yes, you can end up insane and bankrupt chasing your favourite husbando, but even that has ceilings, which are pretty well-documented by gacha norms.

Your only takeaway should be that Genshin’s music is way better than it has any right to be. Here’s a few of my favorites
Sumeru battle theme
Balladeer fight
Raiden fight
Azhdaha fight
Port Ormos
Teapot
Late game Genshin is anything but slow. Well, and I liked BotW’s Master Mode~
