the fandom of an ongoing game can’t survive without headcanons. it’s not the big spenders, the theory crafters, the casual players, or even the content creators who keep the fandom alive; it’s the people who read just a couple of lines about an unreleased character, fell in love
Genshin players headcanon way too much that it just destroys the actual game's story. Like, if genshin players just stop for a moment of headcanoning things and just let the writers show what they want as canon, then 99% of all illiterate comments/ problems wouldn't exist at all.
