Despite a month-long boycott and 100,000 petition signatures, Genshin Impact saw no changes and remains unaffected. Instead, it continues to succeed, with their web event gaining 30 million cheers in just two days, and Genshin winning "Best Mobile Game" at Gamescom. Hoyoverse also earned "Best Developer," and Honkai Star Rail won "Best Storytelling." Now, some are trying to boycott pulling for the new character, Mualani, but this effort is being mocked by other players. Some even purchased 12,000 Genesis Crystals just to counter the boycott.
