It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about the combat system in Honkai Star Rail. As far as I know, Honkai Star Rail is currently the only HoYoverse game that doesn't have an open world combat system. Instead, it has a turn-based system. That means every character, including enemies, get one turn each. Your characters finish their turns, then the enemies each get a turn, and this continues until the battle is finished. Extra actions can be done at any point regardless of whose turn it is. This sounds interesting, but it's actually very boring and tedious. It gets old very fast, and I personally prefer the combat in the other games. The animations are nice, but the voice lines repeat every time, which just makes it worse. I'm not sure what could be done to fix this, especially since it's been like this for a long time now. I just wanted to talk about this because I've been playing Honkai Star Rail recently and the battles just about put me to sleep whenever I have to fight a strong enemy. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I'm sure this is because this game focuses on the story more than anything, it just bothers me. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
