The Genshin Impact 3.0 update is already stacked: new characters, new element, new region. But it also brings one feature that everybody didn't know they needed.

Genshin Impact 3.0 Changes

Sprint Changes

For characters with alternate sprints and dashes, a single pixel of elevation most likely means putting a stop to the sprint. While sprinting as Mona, Ayaka, or even just using either Yelan's or Sayu's Elemental Skill, you probably know this feeling.

Genshin Impact 3.0 fixes this problem, meaning you can now smoothly sprint and dash, no matter how bumpy the terrain is.

The Reddit thread for this discovery were mostly filled with comments of awe and disbelief:

“This is too good to be true…”

“This […] is f***ing insane.”

“Finally! Now I won't get stuck on every twig in Sumeru hopefully.”

“Ayaka finally learned how to walk up stairs!”

“Yelan can finally run over a twig on the ground, im so proud of her sobs”

“THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING”

Now, this isn't the only good change coming to Genshin Impact 3.0, as the Artifact Strongbox will also receive some changes, as well as adding multiple artifacts that will surely make certain aspects of the game more convenient.
