First Time REACTION to All GENSHIN IMPACT Version Trailers | 3.2-4.2

[@-amel-9896]

Fontaine's latest archon quest is basically THE best quest in the entire game, its dramatic, the music is amazing, the plot is good well thought out, the characters are very well written too

[@murata..]

voice acting is amazing too

[@Blackout_]

@@murata.. Yeah, Amber did so damn amazing

[@murata..]

@@Blackout_ literally incredible

[@Blackout_]

@@murata.. Literally best va of 2023

[@megatbasyarullah4859]

Yup. The voice acting especially for the EN was superb for the whole fontaine cast. And its probably the first archon quest where i feel we are actually spectators and are not solely directly involved. Neuvi and furina are like the actual main cast here. Ofc for fights and battle scenes sumeru still takes the cake.

[@alvinshen9501]

7:00 the song is the “Hustle and Bustle of Ormos” , Love the reaction and quick note, a lot of us love to watch people react to the music so we weren’t skipping it. We all appreciate the music in Genshin and love when others also appreciate it.

[@_XVIII_]

I feel that intro. I took a break for a while after finishing Inazuma's Archon quest when it first dropped, then took another after the Caribert quest first came out. Didn't even touch the game until this recent update with the completed archon quest in Fontaine. To me, this game is best enjoyed in huge bursts rather than immediately completing everything every time it updates.

[@Gh.stKng.]

The fontaine era made me hooked and get back in Genshin again. It's so amazing and well written.

[@mordakie3805]

Fountain is refreshing

[@vertisyvengeful4254]

Fontaine has easily the best characters in genshin

[@thecrystalliaguild]

5:30 They're non-biological siblings, both puppets created by Raiden Ei, but he never met his mother as he was abandoned after he was made, and Raiden Ei soon went into meditation in her sword carried by the Shogun, whom she has the ability to control but his mecha suit was created by different people, likely attempting to create a similar appearance to honour his origins and the gnosis he is using

[@mintpudding7908]

Kabukimono & Raiden Shogun meets each other before. It was during the time when Tatarasuna in peril so Kabukimono use the feather to see Ei but was denied by Raiden Shogun. (Wanderer character story)

[@kaizeric]

Scaramouch just a prototype to create perfect puppet shogun.

[@thecrystalliaguild]

@@mintpudding7908 I thought that he met Yae and she told him that the Raiden Shogun/Ei is unavailable (because she went into meditation) Ok edit: I went to check on the wiki, it says he met Yae after being refused, but it doesn't say refused by who, so I guess it's ambiguous whether he personally met the Shogun and she refused him, or if he was stopped outside the castle gates by the guards Looking back on my original comment, I myself don't clearly remember my intention, but it seems like I meant that the Kabukimono didn't meet Ei, rather than the Shogun, I suppose I wasn't very clear on that, even causing myself confusion, so I'll go and edit my comment to clarify

[@juliarose3862]

The reason that Scaramouche’s suit (the huge mechanical boss) looks like Raiden’s boss is because Ei (who is the creator of the raiden shogun as she is a puppet as well as scaramouche) is Scaramouche’s mother as revealed in the end of the inazuman archon quest by Yae Miko. That’s Ei’s puppet that she made by hand so she technically isn’t blood related but she is still considered his mother. And the Raiden shogun who is the boss we fight is Scaramouche’s sister. Thank you to the people for catching my error!

[@callmerosa170]

Well yes and no. Ei is Scaras mother, the puppet Shogun would technically be Scaras younger sister.

[@_dragonflies_]

The Raiden boss is the Shogun, not Ei. And the Shogun is Scaramouche's younger sister.

You can really feel how the trailers and the plot itself are getting better and better. And thought I am a Sumeru fan, Fontaine is the best region so far

[@UguuUng]

Well, they had close to no experience when they made genshin so they're learning

[@meddios]

Returned to genshin recently after quitting just before Sumeru was released. 7:04 This was me when I heard this song for the first time. Honestly if you don't focus too much on artifacts and etc, you can have a good time just going through the story. The underwater exploration is so good, you forget that this is genshin you're playing. I get the exaustion you feel, and that was cause there was nothing to do in the game (at least in my case). You just go in, complete comissions and spend your resin. Every day. Just switch your focus on the story and exploration, that helped me. Cons of returning to genshin rn is waiting for all the dendro banners to come back (or any other banners), cause you've missed them. But honestly, the f2p national team is more than enough to blitz through the story imho.

Fontaine has been the best region in terms of story so far. It’s kinda a shame because you have to go through so much just to get there as a new player. For me I just play for the story now, the daily grind is insufferable to me now tbh.

[@Ratccoon_]

if you are in a burnout of genshin one thing ive done is play a completely different game or no games at all for a week or two which isn't to big of a downside, might miss a small event or two and definitely helps getting back on genshin without the feeling of "Ugh". I stopped for a whole 2 months and now am playing non stop again.

[@x_Psyduck_x]

i had a Genshin burnout back in version 1.2 with Dragonspine. Took a break for 2-3 months, got back in 1.4 iirc and then never ever quit again

[@kaz7886]

For me the burnout was huge, i just played from 1.0 until Liyue was finished and then never played until 4.2, took a few years of break since i do NOT like at all when a game makes me come back constantly to it.

12:55 That’s because the version updates usually contains the new story/character story content that comes and the time-limited events, though it can vary which is at the forefront

[@Mist_Hashira_Muichiro]

Don bro, i was not expecting you to look into genshin, i was literally playing it when i saw this notif. idk if you would have the time to play it, the story quests are pretty lengthy but if you do then good for you, just appreciate genshin for the masterpiece that it is, it cannot be called a game, not with how insane and sad and perfect some of the quests are, the newest story quest which i have already done was so sad and moving and everything, genshin goes so beyond just a mere game

[@goat_hitman7655]

oh lord hes stepin into genshin

[@justrandomgamesandotherthings]

16:00 - Dehya - The only people who says she's bad are those expecting her to be main DPS but she's clearly tank/ support/ subDPS.

[@Blackout_]

She is clearly still bad either way

[@justrandomgamesandotherthings]

@@Blackout_ - Not really. Her kit is balanced in all aspects. Hers isn't the best but she's well rounded. You're just thinking of comparing her to top tier DPS like Hu Tao but can't sustain for long or any top tier support but slow when soloing. She got all of that but not the best. Her best comparison would be Noelle at C6. Not as strong as Itto at DPS but can help team in other aspects.

[@DoubtfulZero]

dehya is definetly overexagerated with how bad she is, but she is overall a bad unit. She got some play in some teams now, but just because shielders are a thing, compared to them she is very lacking to straight up bad.

[@justrandomgamesandotherthings]

@@DoubtfulZero - Not really. She's just not the best in a specific role. You can't compare her to shielders since that's their main gameplay. Dehya's kit just is just all around accross the board. She's made to be flexible than being OP in a certain field.

[@nikumilotic1333]

It's funny you had to stretch her to three different areas Knowing that she sucks in all of them

[@Keiki-kun]

people who say that Dehya treat her as a DPS but she is a Tank "oh but I don't need a Tank" I don't care shut up "but her ult does damage" her entire kit is based on the skill I'm not going to respond to anyone wanting to start a stupid argument thanks

[@Felnal]

Honestly, Deyha's reception feels more or less like just a repeat of Zhongli's initial reception. Granted, Geo shields were pretty useless before 1.3 and definitely needed the change, but it still doesn't change the fact that it was wild that there were people who were surprised that the guy who can give you a shield with 100% uptime was better used as a support than as a DPS.

5:45 i think you forgot so let me remind you. Scaramouche is a discarded puppet of ei and he got the gnosis of her from yae. Basically he went to sumeru and convinced the people there to build him a mech using the power of the gnosis to create a new god for them since they dont like the current one.

You missed 3.0 "The Morn a Thousand Roses Brings". That was the main and bestest I ever saw in the Genshin version trailer.

[@jeffergzl]

"amazon delivery girl" 😂

[@mrsaagar7]

Sooo to answer some of your questions without spoiling anything; . there is no 3.9, the trailer you watched before 4.0 was kind of like a teaser for what 4.0 and up has to offer . Dehya is a character whose gameplay/dmg output is severely underwhelming, but she's actually an amazing character lore wise . . The monster thing in 3.2 who has the same thing as Raiden; yes correct, it's very similar. There's a reason for that but you'll find out sooner or later . In 3.3 was it him fighting himself? Kind of, it's a bit complicated but you'll also find out when playing. . in 3.4 everything is frozen in time yeah. Also a reason for that . in 3.5 the character wielding all those weapons (Mika) is a polearm user, but uses his crossbow with his skill . in 3.6, Baizhu is indeed the guy from Liyue! He finally got released as a playable character . in 3.7, yes Kirara is an Amazon delivery girl who can do back flips. . in 4.0, why is Childe here? it's cause he's mr. Worldwide, that's the only question I'm answering from anything post 4.0😂 My opinion on the latest Archon Quest: Best one so far. it's amazing that they managed to top the one from Sumeru given how good that one was. They seriously went crazy with this one. I really recommend rewatching the 4.1 trailer after Act II and rewatching the 4.2 trailer after Act IV, since things from the trailer will make so much more sense (yet also not at all at the same time, which is what makes it so freakin good)

[@daysand123]

I dont think i could agree more on how sometimes the game feels like a chore if you want to catch up on story. Sumeru was good and wrapped up well until the post archon quest scaramouche story quest required for progression. That was legitimately painfully dragged out unnecessarily. It wasnt Yae Miko bad but it was still pretty bad. Luckily Fontaine is probably much like Inazuma in that its story quests dont take up a ridiculous amount of time, and they are well put together and written even better than the best of Sumeru. So far there isnt a single character main or side npc that just exists seemingly solely to be unbearable or hateable. Even Furina from the get go is just such a fun interaction that its more than easy to forgive how she comes off.

[@Frello4775]

I know the burnout on Genshin I also feel the same where I want to play it but its just boring, doing world quest and side quest are boring, the combat is boring, events are boring too since its the same as before. The only reason I still play it is for the Archon quests, some characters, and just to explore from time to time.

It depends entirely on what motivates you. I've never lost that motivation, but I've begun to lose it for Star Rail. They're both good games but they target different appeals in different ways (and that's a good thing).

[@JohnCivor]

​@@effortlessfuryyeah same to me im more burnout on HSR especially that Luofu story disaster and its more repetitive gameplay compared to genshin.. i think its more on preference.. more people love to grind and afk then they play hsr and me who love open world and love exploration more stick to genshin.. but for me the make-or-break for continuing a hoyo game is on how good the story is because im not totally invested on characters anymore or gacha in general and thank god Fontaine improves while hsr story is eh.. kinda curious on the next planet tho.

[@effortlessfury]

@@JohnCivor I give HSR benefit of the doubt because slow starts seem to be common in HoYo games. The overarching lore seems interesting, but despite generally preferring sci-fi to fantasy, there is a lot about how Genshin approaches it's story, many aspects of which actively turn plenty of people away, that lends it my preference.
