New Fontaine realm, Fontaine main building || Serenitea News version 4.3

[@UnluckyTabibito]

What is your honest thought on the Fontaine realm? For me, it's kinda disappointing (ᴗ_ ᴗ。) WHY NO WATERRRR ｡°(°.◜ᯅ◝°)°｡

[@tikolatte]

But now, deep sinking makes it possible to swim around your build:)

[@sparklingblue]

we're like fishes in a fish bowl😂 personally i think it's okay. i'm just disappointed in the interior area... it's so white that it reminds me of a hospital. and it's structured just like sumeru's main house😔

[@notebookofmath]

Ability to swim/build underwater should have been intended instead of making us glitch to it like always. But I guess that is teapot mains' fate to always have to do everything cool via glitches. Otherwise I like the new realm a lot but the interior is disappointing.

[@dinjong]

I feel like even I wanted to have a emerald peak themed but more Fontaine-ish realm, i kinda hate the water 😂 ALSO I feel you when they just use the same layout of the mansion with the sumeru tree house!! 😡 they are getting so lazy with it. I was expecting more like a mondstadt mansion where its unsymmetrical and still look great. These symmetrical rooms and halls are just boring to me, but the white ceramic and floor just made up for it because it looks fancy. I hope they won't do the same in natlan but these already happened twice so idk anymore I think they really abandoned teapot development and just work on it in bare minimum 😢

Đúng r đó 🥲 đang me me chạy zô để bơi buttt nooooo 🥲 chặn luôn bằng kết giới 🫠

[@grishmagurung3227]

I love the underwater design but i was really looking forward to Fontaine style overworld realm kinda like Cool Isle, all beachy, lakes, rivers because the furnishings are gorgeous and they look amazing in the sun. The interior of the main building also looks amazing in the daytime in another realm.

[@tikolatte]

Now Floating abode realm met its polar opposite 😂

[@dinjong]

True! Also does this mean all lights and lamps will be automatically turned on?

[@theretherebearbears7631]

@@dinjongyeah, it's eternal night time. I always prefer night time more overall, but I have mixed feeling for this realm.

[@marianadobreva_]

​@@theretherebearbears7631Fr, night time is way better bc atleast u have lights that glow in ur teapot and not just some eternal adeptal sun

[@tacticalmechtank5556]

OMG didn't expect them to actually give us an underwater teapot, this looks so beautiful.

[@grishmagurung3227]

So happy that they made this and sumeru’s realms purchasable because i dont wanna remember the pain i had to go through to get inazuma’s realm 😭

[@Sim_Pole]

the new furnishings require a whole lot of iron ore that I haven't even thought of since my earliest days in Mondstadt (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

[@dinjong]

Knowing that teapot also needs iron ore (early days ore) now I always put my expedition for 3 chunks, iron white iron and the blue one. Though it makes the stock just slow in increasing and I have to redispatch in every 3/4 hours instead of making them all 20 hours, it actually helped a lot with expedition for the teapot mats! Maybe you can give it a try :D (i don't farm them manually anymore as well)

[@UnluckyTabibito]

Yeah, I've also been dispatching my characters on 4-hour expeditions just for the iron ores 😂

[@jnaednnjel9682]

I did not really expect for Fontaine Realm to get underwater. The way they make it look like it was underwater is already good enough for me. Also, the Annapausis was a dead give-away on how the realm would be made. Also, I agree with you on the colors inside the mansion. I may have to use the other realm's floor and see if anything would make sense. That being said, I am sure you would make beautiful designs despite these limitations. Will look forward to your works of art. :)

[@NixAyala]

For me, all the white marble reminded me of those restrooms in the more fancy malls...for some reason. I hope the furniture makes it more homey. 😅

[@nguyenhongthy7526]

Omg I love new furnishing, especially the outdoor ones. Looking forward to your new building clips in this new realm as well!

[@grishmagurung3227]

When they announced this, you were the first thing on my mind

[@c1nnamodoll]

i guess i wasn't exaclty expecting that we'd be able to place furniture underwater, but i guess im also still a little disappointed 😞what an incredible opportunity it would have been ! and the interior... all the interiors are not exactly to my taste, but i don't think one has ever put me off as much as fontaine's house interior :( it feels so closed in.. the tile floor is like a hospital, it's a little nauseating 😵‍💫

[@himechan1416]

I'm excited to try to decorate it but I have to admit that 3 spaces is kinda limited. I wish there were at least 3 spaces underwater aswell as 3 spaces at the surface with a Fontaine type landscape, for more fun and diversity, and also for those who feel umconfortable with constantly being surrender by water And I hate the reskin of Sumeru house, it was hell to decorate it because of how much little load the different room had 😢

[@UnluckyTabibito]

I just want at least 1 area with water, doesn't even have to be submerged in water, maybe there's a river in the middle would just be fine but NOOOOOO (╥﹏╥)

[@himechan1416]

@@UnluckyTabibito You're SO right ! A lake to build upon would have make this realm the best one so far. Well... I guess I'll keep using that giant fish pond for the rest of my life 🥲

[@dinjong]

I cant wait for your amazing build in this realm!💖

[@blackmiIk]

I really wanted a swmming space, its my favorite thing. And the realm made me pretty anxious, it looked to much deep in the water and with to little life forms and plants. I dont know but they could thought that some ppl have deep water fobia. I really liked the furniture and definitely going to use on other realms

[@jamiej.4490]

honestly was hoping for too much - kind of disappointed because i wanted an area to above land and then underwater :s Or at least water features like editable pools so we don't have to glitch to float our builds on the water underground. I wanted to be able to swim in the water, not watch it around me while i'm in a dry bubble

[@Yafie710]

imagine the furina/focalors statue in the event obtainable as a furnishing 😮🤩 hopefully tho

[@bfjrd]

that fontaine main building is what I have in mind for a long time so I can save stairs and its interior is beautiful xD

[@amphiptered.5355]

I am disappointed with it as well. There is no day and night cycle, I wanted an over water area, and honestly the ocean feels too empty. They should have added more sea life. I do like the mansion exterior, but not the interior. Unless they plan on giving us more load, Sumeru interior was way too big. But the mansion looks a lot better in the Monds realm, but I like my Monds build so I won't be replacing it.

[@EternaMidnight]

Yeah, it would have looked better if they filled it in with more giant corals instead of leaving so much empty space.

[@nkkbliw]

My first thought about fontaine teapot was we could get to swim around and we can built a city of atlantis. But this was far from what we got

[@CeIesta]

I feel a bit disappointed that we can't swim freely between zones

[@ayfhsvluv4154]

Be grateful u can have this lil bro.

[@picat3422]

im so excited this update has a ton of qol updates plus the teapot omg

[@Seseorang_00]

Im waiting for more inspirations from you☆ im so excited

[@OrangeBanana836]

Teapot looks so good but I'm still looking for an underwater teapot design to copy. I love the underwater atmosphere/ambience but I dont want an underwater theme design on my teapot, if you get what I mean. lol

[@rainwater_05]

The thing that dissapoints me is the layout, as its the same exact as the Sumeru one. Other than that, I love everything else about it.

[@VeronicaEtcetera]

The framework of the mansion is definitely disappointing but I kinda like the marble flooring and the walls, prolly because I was a nurse. 😂😂😂

[@d3addarko27]

Now all we need is an unlimited load limit and everything will be perfect😭

[@lugia99bc]

We will never get unlimited load limit, people will start making softlock realm or lag machine

[@theretherebearbears7631]

Broo they reskin the Sumeru main house. 😢

[@vantasue]

CAN U POST IF U DESIGN OUTSIDE OF THE MAIN HOUSE?? I REALLY NEED IDEAS AND YOUR DESIGNS R THE BEST

[@shreosheesarder6132]

The interior doesn't seem that bad to me honestly. It looks better after adding furnishings. The exterior *sort* of disappointed me because no Atlantis :(

[@kyraky4682]

I figured out why the inside of Fontaine realm mansion feels so weird- it’s because there are no shadows for some reason! Idk what it is but seems like a glitch or mistake

[@imdani4997]

Kinda sad that it only has 3 islands rather than 4 like usual and in permanent night ;w; Very excited to see what I can do tho Building ideas I might do: (inside) -Neuvillette office -Furina bedroom -Opera room (outside) - Mini Fontaine city/countryside - Poisson/prison -Melussine village -Institute of kinetic energy/narzissenkreuz ordo

[@UnluckyTabibito]

It still has 4 areas like other realms, but the first 2 areas are on the same isle. What bug me is that Fontaine buildings are so big, but the areas are kinda small 😭 I wanna build a whole city, but now there's not enough room (ᇂ_ᇂ|||)

[@imdani4997]

@@UnluckyTabibito Oh I see! Ty for telling me. Yeah the areas are small but I can't never fill them up because of the load limit anyway :'3 I hope they'll increase it one day

[@nuggetdragonicoverlord9938]

was it in this update or a previous one where they fixed floating. because when i try to float items, theres a message that says it fixes it to a proper position

[@carina.esk_ei4203]

Im playing on ps5 and I don’t have the multi select mode in my teapot :((

[@grishmagurung3227]

Does anyone feel like the main building inside resemble Hotel Debord exactly?

[@kevinvalencia7982]

Disappointment the area where you can build should be the one that is submerged not the other way around. Have you tried sinking it? Can u swim if you sink it?

[@Sheep_Sleepy]

why wasn't the fairytale like cottage houses not available, the ones we see in the grassy field, not the court of fontaine. My cottage core dream feels so faraway

[@abundantsolace]

I'm even more disappointed with this one than I was with the Sumeru realm. Fontaine has such beautiful mountains and scenery, I would've preferred it if three of the islands were above water with only one underwater (even if we couldn't swim in it). As it stands, everything looks out of place here except for the Merusea Village furnishings. I feel like the devs have been trying to make the realms more whimsical and dreamlike ever since the Inazuman one went so well, but sometimes it's better to make them more similar to the open world. I hope they'll consider adding more realms with different environments (like the desert, above water Fontaine, maybe even Enkanomiya or the Chasm) after all of the seven nations have one. I do like that they're making more large furnishings to help fill up these gigantic islands, though.

[@grishmagurung3227]

Yeah i did really want an open world realm. For now, ive been using the furnishings in Cool Isle realm. They look great in the sun!

[@scarlettalbright3578]

best realm by far!!

[@dinjong]

Also tabibito, i remember there is one outdoor gift set that don't belong to any character's favorite. Do you think its for future characters? 😂

[@EternaMidnight]

Yes when this has happened before it's been for future characters. Maybe Chiori?

[@dinjong]

@@EternaMidnight yesss I thought so, maybe clorinde too (i didn't check properly which set was it)

[@gracewongpt]

Does anyone has problem with unlocking the swirling isle even after purchasing the swirling scene in a bottle?

[@EternaMidnight]

Did you make sure to go into your bag and use it?

[@xuan840]

It feels kinda empty, but at the same time it kinda reminds me of spongebob😂😂

[@marianadobreva_]

Bro the main building literally looks like the white house 😀

I didn't like the new realm because I wanted to make a space for my Furina and gaddamn putting fontanina bldgs in the new realm makes it look like it's sunken Fontain and poor Furina will surely trigger PTSD. hoyo truly is a devious one 😢

Im upset tht they took away the set creating. Like this new one isn’t great and makes building less fun. And the interior for the Fontaine mansion looks like s reskin of the sumeru mansion
