So if you haven't realized by now, Genshin has too very big problems that are becoming apparent as time goes on.

Firstly, pulling becomes awkward for new players. If you just got into Genshin and decided to pull on, say, Raiden's banner because she looked cool, you'll realize you can only really upgrade her once you get to Inazuma. Why? Her ascension materials. This currently isn't too big of an issue since Inazuma doesn't take too long to get to, but once we get to 4, 5, even more nations? The current system of banners aren't going to work for new players.

Secondly, with the number of characters gradually increasing, this means wait times for characters will be terrible. Like, imagine you want Zhongli. Each banner lasts around 3 weeks, and each new nation brings about 8 new 5-stars and varying amounts of 4-stars. I'll be focusing on the 5-stars. So let's say we're at the end of Sumeru, and we have 36 5-stars in the game now. If Zhongli rerun just ended, you'll be waiting about 735 days, or more than 2 years. Okay, sure, double banners might help, but that just cuts the time down to a year, which is still a really long time.

Now, my proposition is to add something called 'regional banners.' How this will work is that there will be a banner for each nation all put together. .

Imagine that there are 3 icons where the banners currently are, one for Mondstadt, one for Liyue, one for Inazuma, all side by side. More icons will be added when new regions are released. When you click on an icon, it divides into a weapon banner and a character banner. Each character banner can only contain 5-stars from that specific region, and each will contain different 4-stars (or maybe the same 4-stars, what do you guys think?) Each weapon banner will represent the character in the character banner. They all last 3 weeks, same as now. Although maybe they could be a month long, I don't know. Standard and Beginner are still there. When a player hasn't unlocked a region and tries to pull on a banner from that region, the game will have a popup that says 'Are you sure you want to pull on this banner? This character requires ascension materials you have not yet unlocked' with the options 'Yes' or 'No' under it.

I feel like this would solve those problems. Now the number of characters you can pull at a time increases by a ton, removing that wait time for your Geo daddy. It also helps with new players, since if they wanna pull on Mondstadt, why not? However, if you're alting on a new account and you want to get Yae, you can still pull even if you haven't unlocked Inazuma.

I also don't believe this hurts the sales as much. On the contrary, whales now have even more characters to spend on at a time. I want Xiao but I also want Klee! Well, they're both on right now, why not spend on both?

Thank you for reading through this, I know it's a long one but I've been thinking about this for a pretty long time.
