I know this is super random and completely unlike me. I usually don't do big farewells or anything like that. But don't worry, I'm not dying or anything dramatic—I'm just saying farewell for now.

Since it was announced that the PS4 will soon be unable to run Genshin, I've accepted that every day was a countdown until I'd have to let my favorite game go. Four days ago was my birthday, and it really sank in then that I'd have to leave the game behind. I'm not a rich guy—I don't have money because I live with my family and take care of them at home. We're way out in the country—it's never been a problem before, and it still isn't. I'm just sad to know that my time is running out.

Every day for the past few months, I've been able to play. How, you might ask? Well, I might be an AR60 player who pretty much never has any resin, but... my siblings play the game now. And, as the eldest sibling, it's been so cool to watch them start playing something I picked up five years ago. I've led them through almost every nation and showed them chests. I've annihilated their enemies for them and watched them hug eachother when they got the characters they wanted. It's been fun to see them grow as Genshin players, even if it's only been for the past few months.

I got my PS4 when I was 16, and I've kept it in pristine condition just for Genshin. I've taken care of it because I knew I wanted to be able to play with my siblings when they got old enough. Well, they're old enough now. It's been a short run, but It's been so fun. I can only hope that, when I can no longer play, they'll help eachother in my stead.

And to the Genshin community, which helped me out so much when I first started, I thank you. You've all been so pleasant and supportive in my journey—especially the friends I made in the game. I hope we can all play together again someday soon.

If anyone wants to play with me before I'm gone, my UID is 626237787 on the American server.

I love all you guys :)

Thank you.

I had a good run
