Ei has 8 lines, let's go Eimiko fans
>>
Is Itto really popular in China or something? Like hes a fun character but why nearly every Inazuma event being centered around him or having him play a major role? The end of the Fontaine movie event implied the next time we went to Inazuma would be to do something with Ayaka so I was hoping for an Ayaka event at least. Not to mention Ei has pretty much gotten to do almost nothing since her storyline. Meanwhile the other nation's archons play major parts in events.

They’re the best thing to have come out of the chink arc. Jingliu and Baiheng had potential but they got 0 content.
>>4169541
Since she’s 2.3 at the earliest I can safely go for (and get) E2S1 Yomi before that. Got around 430 right now and I can get a good 30 pulls from Penacony + G/G + achievements. I’ll definitely have enough for E0S1 when she’s out and if I’m lucky when pulling for Yomi I might even have leftovers for E1/2.

how's the new jean/lisa event anyway
>>
>>4169823
Jean hasn't physically appeared yet, but she gets mentioned a few times by Lisa so she probably will later. Jean tells Lisa to open up a potion shop but Lisa talks you into doing it instead.

The gameplay is very basic, you're just mixing ingredients to get the right consistency that's being asked for. Sometimes characters will show up and you get a scene with them, so far only Eula and Beidou have appeared though.
>>
>>4169823
>>4169832
There's some Beigguang pandering. Spoilers ahead:
Beidou buys a sleeping potion from the Traveler as a gift for a female "friend" back in Liyue, saying she has trouble finding sleep. Paimon immediately understands she's referring to Ningguang (they are supposed to keep their relationship secret). When she leaves for Dornman Port, she leaves a note alluding to a dinner with Eula, Ningguang and the Traveler in the future.

I know it's probably supposed to be Ningguang but I'm going to pretend she was talking about Ganyu. Since the supposed sleeping issues and inability to relax fit her better.

Ganbei? In this economy and in this current year? You have a refined taste, sister. Also Beidou x Eula has a ton of potential, they could easily carry an event all by themselves!
>>
>>4169840
I'll be honest at least, I'm kinda disappointed how they RWBYfied Beiguang and to a lesser extend Eimiko. I admit that it's too basic bitch vanilla for my tastes, but not every thing about Beidou has to be about Ningguang and vice-versa.
>>
>>4169878
Well, considering they both have hangouts where they barely mention the other, if ever, I think you're slightly overreacting
>>
>>4169891
Fair enough. At least I'd like to see Beidou finally interact with Ganyu and some more with Shenhe. As for Ningguang just give me the damn interactions with Yelan and the and revive the Keqing pairing.
>>
>>4169921
Though I kinda agree with you about Eimiko. It does feel like Miko went full yandere and forbids Ei from interacting with anyone besides her. Hell, she spends most of the time locked in Miko's sex dungeon

It feels like a classic Genshin storywriting moment where some female characters went down a very different path than what their debuts implied. Believe you me, I'd love nothing more than to see ropeless Shenhe glassing some poor bastard's place and reducing their crew numbers to zero!

Star rail's main story arcs are simply too short for the amount of characters and world building they have to go through. Even belobog, the best main arc so far, is still pretty rushed.
Penacony had a pretty good star, they'd have to drop the ball really hard to be worse than the Luofo

They're already dropping the ball by making the "deaths" completely pointless, despite making everyone react like they were serious business

>>4170737
So far there was not a single death that was to be taken serious. Ting has been immediately debunked by Welt noting that there's no body and this doesn't need to mean anything. It's fiction. You don't say that without reason. It's gonna matter, in one way or another. Of course, for the people there if you get no information about the whereabouts or anything really, after a while you gotta officially call it death given what information you have. They aren't exactly knowing it's a story, so Welt's remark, while valid, is feeling more like coping than anything else.

And the penacony shit? There's a reason TB didn't give a single shit after being shocked for a moment. The dream feels real of course, but then you realize.. you are fucking dreaming. Unless it turns out that this shit affected reality, there's no need to care. Especially considering that the character's story just started.


None of this was like HI3rd. Or what Heaven Burns Red does. Does it mean there are no stakes? Pretty much, yes. But does Hoyo even WANT stakes in this game? I kinda doubt it.

I maintain that the lack of any Satsui no Hadou Shenhe or whatever the fuck you want to call her is one of the greater travesties of Genshin's writing (and we all know there are many, the TCG event being one of my "favorites").

In a parallel universe, there exists a version of Shenhe's story (such as it is) where it starts with us getting reports of a "white-haired demon" fucking shit up right outside the city gates and we're asked to investigate because the Millelith keep getting injured. You check it out and turns out it's Shenhe going on a rampage because one of her ropes fell off etc etc. Hell, they can keep the rest of the story. Just change that whack ass intro.

Alas, here we are, talking about her almost making Ganyu cum from touching her horns (which I actually thought was kinda funny) and how she can't be a proper waitress. Shit sucks.

And speaking of Beidou, if this interaction doesn't happen soon, I'm getting a refund.
>>
>>4171263
Preach it, Shenhe as a character has been endlessly frustrating to watch develop. Great potential that gets utterly wasted. I wouldn't even mind the let's be honest waifuish personality she's stuck with now IF she at least had the occasional scene where she gets angry, but noope.
>>
>>4171263
They should've let Shenhe and/or Dehya join Beidou's crew. Neither had anything better going on anyway at the end of their stories, so why not just let them see the rest of Teyvat? Beidou would also appreciate the extra strong pairs of hands around!
>>
>>4171272
For real though, who thought it was a good idea to turn Shenhe of all women into a waitress and delivery girl? They should gotten her to join the Liyue branch of the Adventurer's Guild.

Is it me, or has Genshin 4.X in general been kinda lackluster in terms of world expansion?

We're in 4.5 right now and not only is this yet another filler patch, but the current event, a *flagship* event at that, is just kinda... there. No lore, a bunch of interactions that ultimately mean fuck all, it's just... there.

Meh, free primos and an okay healing staff, so there's that. Oh, and that brief bit with Beidou and Eula. Silver linings, I guess.

That's you get when the fanbase bitches about limited-time lore and character development. That's why most of 3.x series events were dogshit too.
>>
>>4172740
I like how HSR has its events have a limited-time prize period, but if you miss that, you can still play the event later if you want to see the content. I wonder why Genshin doesn't have something similar, but I assume it's because of the changes its events tend to make to the open world space. I also wonder if it's an issue with memory usage on certain devices, but then that doesn't explain why HSR does it and Genshin doesn't.

You can always do something like what they do with character episodes already. Limit it to only 1 main event being able to take place at one time, and be done with it.
The only problem are those forced multiplayer gameplay segments some shitty events have. But you could easily fix that by no longer having that in the future, and removing that shit for the past events. Nobody would miss local host multiplayer in 2024 anyways..

Same but I’m still sticking to Pela.
Not that I have BS, but I’m not pulling her +E1 +S1 PAYN on reruns as that’s way too expensive and there are a good number of characters I (may) want in the near future like Sam, Jade, and Feixiao.

To be honest I'm kinda glad there's at minimum full patch before Firefly because it means I can save up enough tickets skipping Acheron and fuckboy.
>>
>>4173684
The way it currently looks, Firefly isn't before 2.4. So at the earliest it would be August. She might not even come out in v2, period. They are doing something strange, but there's likely reasons for it. Or they are hiding her very well, because she becomes a free character or will be what makes MC get the new class.
>>
>>4173691
I can accept that, I don't feel the need for many more characters team comp wise so I'll just hold till then unless another character I grow really attached to shows up, but it's not likely.

Well, considering events aren't canon (otherwise Paimon wouldn't be shocked about certain things happening in the main story, like the fact that some Oceanids can take a human-like form), I suppose it's just as well.

Speaking of events, you girls think NaCl will survive Fontaine? Considering we haven't seen any real interactions between the two outside of that one scene with the Gardemeks and that long ass Lantern Rite epilogue, looks like it could be anyone's guess.

Honestly, if the kit even just somewhat survives, it's gonna be fun for memes in really limited environments. Those memes would require Ruan Mei and no sustain. (at least if we wanna keep it all female, as the new 4* is the only sustain with mattering break damage, and that's a guy)
It'd also require img weakness, and ideally phys and/or fire weakness. Scuffed. Acheron e2 could also kinda work.

Fun fact, the new version has absolutely NO base atk and huge base def, more def than the preservation version. I honestly never felt like the resources to make her perservation class work are worth using. Too much other stuff to raise.

Is it weird that I feel like I'm missing some key context about why Black Swan and Acheron are so heavily shipped, it just seems like it originally appeared out of nothing and is now getting leaned into with this dance.

In the actual canon it kinda only has the dance scene so far, and Acheron seems to really have liked it. Though from Black Swan's lore, she says she wants to capture the future Acheron's memories hold, even if it will end in tragedy.
Canon aside, the fact one of them has goldfish memory and the other is a memokeeper makes for an interesting and funny dynamic. And for once in her life Black Swan has lost control of the situation, since she can't keep reading Acheron's memories even if she wants to. Also her mom had amnesia, so I wonder if Acheron reminds her of those times. Finally, I imagine BS would find very interesting to see memories of a planet that no longer exists, if they ever fix Acheron's evil side.
>>
>>4176956
It's the equivalent of an industry plant but for yuri. Fine pairing and I'm sure there'll be plenty of great art and fics, but it's very much something MHY is deliberately leaning into.
>>
>>4176956
For me, I'm not super into the AcheSwan ship because their dynamic isn't particularly interesting right now. Acheron has dementia and doesn't seem to give a shit about anything, while Blackswan is a generic mysterious lady whose strongest feeling towards Aecheron seems to be "aiiieee". That might change in the future though. Hopefully they don't abandon it after pushing it so hard now.

Lesbo dynamics.

>>4178153
I'm talking about the background. To me it looks like the girl on the right is Acheron in the past, holding a flower bouquet. And on the left there's a guy, and if you look closely you can see there's someone next to him talking to him. Is that this universe's Kevin talking to Acheron? All this makes me worried that Acheron and Kevin did actually have a romantic thing, especially if you consider Acheron's voice line for Trailblazer, where she talks about how she used to be kept in someone's heart.
>>
>>4178157
Dude doesn't look like Kevin, girl barely looks like Acheron and Acheron herself is just passing between those people. In all those shots she only shows up once (not even as a close up), and she looks exactly like her current self.
>>
>>4178157
I thought it was just the other people at the party dancing but since they're just background characters in their dance they just fade into the stars.
>>
>>4178182
Me again. The girl has short hair, not a ponytail. From all the materials avaiable so far I'd say Acheron's closest bond is with Frebass, who is a girl. She has the same red flowers as Acheron on her diving suit, and she's also in one fo Acheron's character stories.
Also I don't know much about HI3, but didn't Kevin play a different role than Kiana/Finality? Acheron said she killed the spiritual Adam or whatever, but is that the same role Kiana performed?

I mean, I hope you're right. To me the girl's hair pattern looks a little too similar to Acheron's to be a coincidence. It seems like she might have her long hair tied up in a bun. Honestly when I first saw that image while watching the short I thought it looked like she was getting married, or at least interacting with a lover. And to me the guy on the left looks indistinct enough that he may or may not be Kevin. And I know in the other starry memory scenes there's only one Acheron but maybe for the first scene it's more like a collage.

I haven't played HI3 either but from what I've gathered Kevin does have a romantic relationship with Dr. Mei who is kind of like a previous incarnation of Raiden Mei, so the theory that Acheron and Kevin had a romantic thing in the past seems to hold weight. Again I hope I'm wrong.
>>
>>4178226
From what I know about HI3, Kevin is just the current Mei's mentor for some time, which seems his role in Star Rail too, he's also an Oni. Though I'm not sure he was the Finality sword. If we get Kevin, but no Kiana I'm gonna vandalize Hoyo's headquarters.
And I think doctor Mei and current Mei are very different people, otherwise Kiana would be banging her great22grandmother.
>>
>>4178237
And also the people in the screenshot are wearing normal western clothes. Acheron lived in Space Japan where most people wore kimonos. To me the shot seems more a contrast of everyone living happy lives, but Acheron always seeming indifferent and distant from everyone

Dumb post. They aren’t the same person at all. No similarities other than the appearance, which was never brought up ingame (devs have also once stated that PE characters looking the same is just for ease of recognition, and not because they’re identical), unlike Hare-Cecilia or the Seeles.
Acheron is far closer to Mei than MEI. The latter was mainly a scientist/strategist. She’s also a non-combatant for the most part, and when she did fight it wasn’t with a sword. Acheron is closer to Mei since she’s a warrior, uses a sword, had the horns, and the whole Origin thing.
>>
>>4178817
There's no denying Dr. MEI was in love with Kevin. I just hope that when they inevitably reveal more about Acheron's tragic past, there's no romance (including hinted romance) between her and HSR's version of Kevin because that would dampen my enjoyment of the character. At first I was paranoid that there would be because of how I interpreted the first starry memory scene (see discussion above) and because of her voice line to Trailblazer, but now I feel like there are strong alternative explanations for both. Anyway, it's clear that she and HSR Kevin had some kind of relationship because she refers to him as an "old friend" when talking to male TB, but I'm hoping it was more of a mentor/apprentice relationship.

Former member of the Iris Family (artists, actors, celebrities), retired to become a bartender and help the Dreamjolt monsters through alcohol therapy - that's what the event is about.
There might be more, I haven't finished the event yet.
The other girl in the screenshot I posted is Amiky, a fan trying to get Siobahn to come back to the stage, she shows up during the main quest.

I've only played Genshin yet but does Honkai also put much character interaction in the never recurring events so u have to dig through the archives as new player if u wanna see all of it?

>>
>>4179170
ah cool, wished they did this for some genshin events
>>
>>4179174
Genshin seems to be designed to be more time consuming than all their other games and to have even more FOMO, meanwhile star rail barely has any, the only real FOMO so far are the 4 star light cones from events and not all of them are good.
>>
>>4179191
true that, fuck FOMO. Also just sucks for new players
>>
>>4179191
>>4179228
I don't even mind fomo events in gacha, but every fucking gacha that cares about its playerbase a little does event reruns and eventually makes them into permanent content you can play whenever once that is no longer feasible because the game gets too old..
>>
>>4179237
The worst part is events that have key character interactions in them, like Shenhe meeting Ganyu in person for the first time is tied to an event, and it was a really nice scene and now new players can never experience it.

Even though Jean only showed up at the end, her and Lisa's interactions were still very sweet with Jean showing that she cares a lot about Lisa and is constantly thinking of her. Even if Lisa basically just sat on her ass and did nothing the entire time.

Paimon does that A LOT. "Hey, don't forget Paimon!" and "Paimon helped too!" type of shit. It's either that or her making plans on your behalf. Like, no Paimon, YOU agreed to have lunch with Kaveh. I'M going shopping with Dehya and Candace, archons-dammit!

It only seems to get worse as time goes on. I get she has issues with abandonment and she's our sidekick or whatever the fuck, but does she need to be in the middle of damn near every situation and interaction? Makes talking to characters more of a slog than it already is.

Yes. They drink tea and have a short conversation about how the export of potions could affect Mondstadt's economy, then Lisa tells Jean they should go and celebrate together. Then Paimon interrupts to invite herself.

>>4180590
Gameplay wise Chiori is a perfectly serviceable damage dealer, in the overworld she won't have any trouble grinding materials and doing quests, she's able to be a fairly decent off field dps, there's just nothing particularly standout about her kit unfortunately, at c0 she's pretty limited to team composition (you're basically limited to having Ningguang or Geo Lumine on your team if you are avoiding males)
She plays pretty smoothly, though you are likely to have her off field 90% of the time because her damage mostly comes from her skill
Split atk and def scaling means she's pretty easy to build however because her skill scales better from def, you kind of have to pick if you want to focus on her geo infusion or her skill and burst.
An upside to her is she's got some good easy to get sword options (cinnabar spindle if you played the albedo event)(harbinger of dawn for example is a surprisingly good sword on her despite being a 3star) being Geo she doesn't have much synergy with other elements and a lot of characters, c1 Chiori has good synergy with Navia but that's about it
Overall she's not going to push you to higher heights in terms of damage and better abyss results. If you already have built teams and are looking to make them better, probably best to skip, If you already have built teams, I guess it matters if you plan on going for Arlecchino and/or don't spend much money on the game or not.
She is pretty however and is shippable with Kirara and a few others.

>>4180682
I don't regret throwing my ~9 months of saved pulls on her, getting c6r1. She's disgustingly powerful. Shit like skipping the whale's phase 2 is something she can do with extremely high chance (it will always somewhat depend on which attacks the whale does), and in general her dps is silly.
She's also very nice for overworld, as you have a jump + fly every 4 seconds, doing a better job at "climbing" than what Kirara does in 90% of cases. Kirara is only better when her entire duration (or more) is needed.
Add to that, that geo basically deals with any barrier to an extend, is literally damage immune if the enemy has a barrier/is enchanted and only uses that element, it's comfy. When I stumbled over a certain watery optional "boss" in Fontaine, it was funny reading how it's supposed to oneshot you. Chiori lost like 500 HP the entire fight.. taking only a few seconds anyways.

But mind you, I don't like Genshin's battle system and grind whatsoever. Most people probably want to pull more stuff. I dread the grind (I still have an unraised Miko I got early when initially pulling for Kirara, because she's simply not something I wanted or care about), so yeah. And even now where I do grind artifacts a little again, I'm already feeling like giving up on it again. Something about Genshin's artifact grind is just so much more awful compared to Star Rail's. Probably the controls. Unable to easily switch between controller and mouse is fucking awful.
And while there's this fancy auto lock system now, it's unusable. 2 good subs are okay with 3 subs existing, but not with 4, and then there's off pieces that can be useful.

Oh well. I'm there for other things. I still like running around doing nothing, and Chiori + Kirara are cute.
>>
>>4180729
I will say that I think any c6r1 character is going to be very powerful, I was saying those things as someone only with c0 Chiori who only buys the Welkin moon and rarely gets a 5star above c1r1
Certainly I enjoy having her on my roster, but I don't foresee using her as my go to.
Also given that the 4 second cd is a c6 I don't feel as if it's super relevant to most people who are pulling and experiencing Chiori.

The fandom liking weeb Ei doesn't influence hoyo's neglet of the character. They could have given her screentime in the sword event, but didn't. They could also cook some interlude quest about Chiyo or whatever the hell is resting under one of the islands, and fix Inazuma lore, but they choose to just focus on the retard oni instead.
And if Ei doesn't like leaving her room, we could always have an event where *we* (or other characters) visit her

As nice as that would be I doubt that's gonna happen, I don't think they'll shake up the status quo like that. Best and most likely scenario is that everyone departs on good terms but still with their own factions, it's not like they won't bump into each other again since the SH's are like the main faction we interact with.

I don't care for Acheswan much, but it's definitely a boon for the community.
I think the only HSR ships I like are Fuqing and Stellemarch. Kafhime is hot but too crack for me and I don't understand what their dynamic is supposed to be. Guishang has a lot of potential but they just give off a bff vibe for now.
One Penacony ship that might be good if leakers aren't lying is Sparkbin. Their potential dynamic is literally making me feel butterflies in the stomach. Very little fanart for now though.

I on the other hand am mentally ill about Acheswan and I hadn't even played HSR before watching the animated short (I'm like halfway through the first planet now.) I'm a bit sad that the hyv yuri community's reaction to them so far seems kind of lukewarm, or at least not as feral as I was expecting given how much hyv has pushed it with the short, LC art, and tidbits in their voice lines. I'm guessing it's because they haven't interacted much in the actual story? Anyway I really hope they have some good interactions in 2.2 and 2.3. I feel like things could potentially get interesting given BS's dialogues about Acheron with Constance and Boothill in 2.1. Then again it's probably best if a keep my expectations low.

Same, I only started playing star rail because of them. And that was before the dance video was released, I haven't been the same person after watching that. I'm not sure if hoyo will manage to deliver since 2.1 was a huge let down. Besides no Acheswan interactions, they barely had any screentime as solo either, especially BS. And all of Acheron's scenes were just useless HI3 references.
Though I still have a bit of hope since the line count for 2.2 was leaked and both of them have a decent amount. And I'm holding onto "I yearn to capture the future it points to, whether it be filled with rain or sunshine" until my last breath
>>
>>4185406
Yeah, we'll see what happens in 2.2. I *want* to say that, as disappointing as 2.1 was, pretty much all of BS's screentime was her trying to learn more about Acheron, which makes it seem like the writers are setting something up between them. But who knows, I'm trying to keep my expectations as low as possible.

I only play Genshin but personally, I've been wanting to play Star Rail for a while, mostly because I've noticed that Star Rail has both noticeably more yuri fanart despite being a much more recent game than Genshin (and arguably not as popular/mainstream as Genshin), and there seems to be a bit more discussion about it here on /u/, all of this gives me the impression that Star Rail has slightly more overt yuri than Genshin but I don't really know if that's actually the case
the other thing that stops me from playing Star Rail is that I enjoy the exploration in Genshin a lot, and Honkai doesn't have that
>>
>>4185620
Unlike Genshin, Star Rail takes almost no time, unless you choose to play content. If you are too time restrained to pick up another game, it might lead to you dropping Genshin altogether. Just for that reason alone. So you might be better off staying away unless you are willing to take that "risk".

If you have the time, it's not going to add much to your daily list and you may as well try. It's free to try after all. At worst you spend a few hours on something that ends up not fun to you.
>>
>>4185756

I can second that.
Fuck Genshin's dailies and having to walk all around the gaff. Star Rail has so many QoL improvements that make Genshin feel even more like a chore than it already is.

It depends, I really do like the QoL improvements compared to Genshin, I like how I can very easily get daily stuff done and grind when I have days where I either don't have time or am just not in the mood to play much vidya, which Genshin doesn't really have.
but, I just can't really get into Star Rail enough to care about following it's story, Firefly and Stelle interaction was about the only thing I liked about star rail since Jingliu released.
I haven't even done the 2.1 story because I know if it had Firefly x Stelle interactions it would be posted here.
90% of Star Rail bores me, but Genshin for all its faults just has me hooked.

They only encounter each other again at the end of 2.1 so yeah. At least there was the implication that Firefly only attacked because she thought Acheron and BS weren't trustworthy and the direct statement that she tried 11 times to reveal herself to Stelle beforehand.

Seems like there's no missing out if I just wait for 2.2 still.

I don't have all that, I'm a new player.
Best I can come up with is Lynx, Pela, Hinabi and Qingque.

I just beat Svarog and so far I think Star Rail's writing is a huge step up from Genshin's. Paimon not being there helps a ton, and besides that I just find the character interactions much more interesting. Bronya's backstory reveal was surprising, her dynamic with Seele is fun, Clara and Svarog's relationship was actually pretty sweet, March and Dan Heng have a fun sibling(?) dynamic, Stelle is funny, etc. And that one rapping NPC woman had my jaw on the floor lol. It's not mindblowing or anything but it's definitely better than what I was expecting.

I found Belobog's setting and plot quite generic, but better than Genshin's Mond and Liyue, though Luofu is dogshit. My favorite thing about star rail however is that it has more morally grey or non-goody two shoes characters.

Unfortunately QQ is the single worst option against Sam, since with Sam you want your attacks to consume SP (QQ skill doesn’t work; it damages her and she gets none of the benefits), as 5 SP consumed = Sam’s enhanced mode ends. The faggots at mhy specifically designed this for DanIL and added the ‘attack has to consume SP’ clause to fuck QQ over.

At least 2.2 will likely have plenty of Stelle/Firefly content and probably 2.3 as well if it has Firefly's companion mission in it.
>>
>>4185923
typo, meant to say Hanabi (Sparkle)
>>4185935
Yeah, that's why I'm having trouble, trying to build up my Acheron now tho.

Wait whatever happened to that dancing event that was suppose to be in 2.1?
>>
>>4185935
In the first moc with Sam (no longer there), where she was in moc 11, she didn't even make it till the enhanced phase vs my quantum team. Half HP deleted in the first cycle, and then the moc blessing completely shredded her.

Current moc is just not very favored for QQ. You can kill the trotters, but those don't deal half of max HP every cycle unless you are using dots maybe. I don't know. I have none. Makes it all a lot harder.
>>
>>4185892
Pretty sure that Lynx isn't great vs Sam as healing is punished so hard.
Try March instead.

You need outgoing healing%. You can beat it without, but then your heal really goes down to 20%. The -80% is additive though. So a cone giving some and an outgoing healing chest can drastically improve your healing.

I think single target preservation has bigger issues.

Sigewinne to drop alongside Chlorinde and most likely a 4-star if anyone still cares about her. I remember leaks from last year saying that she was gonna drop with Chiori.
>>
>>4186489
why do we care about siege
shouldnt it be clorinde as far as /u/ potential goes

>>4186495
Her SQ better be S-tier since she's not beating the Fontaine Sara allegations so far. What an absolute nothingburger of a characer.
>>
>>4186497
I still don't understand what she was supposedly doing to hold back the primordial sea in that part of the archon quest, she has a sword and pistol and electro vision, how the he'll is she gonna hold back a flood?
Felt like she was put there because "we have to have her doing something"
>>

>>
>>4186497
At least she didn’t get beat up offscreen like Sara

>>4186513
That too. What was she even doing there

The prison section was the fucking worst, I want game devs to understand that prison sections in video games are never fun.

I liked it for a bit at the start...all the prison rules having this urban legend vibe....and then they all led to freaking nowhere

I care because that means we'll be one step closer to Natlan and some new (Afro?)Latin-inspired yuri couples.

Apparently these are from a recent HoYoFair web event "Lightning-Riding Swordsman"
I never do web events, so, do they have any interactions on that web event or did HoYo just pair them up to tease arlefuri fans?
they look cute together nonetheless

It is. It's as canon or relevant as your average fanfic. People love to give it importance because "approved by mihoyo," but conveniently ignore all the shit that doesn't gel with canon at all like the futuristic shit that always appears.
