Reacting to ALL Honkai Star Rail CHARACTER Trailers for the FIRST TIME Part 3

[@vidianott]

After putting this off for sooo long I finally got this video out! LOL. Rather than try to catch up on all the random reacts I did individually, I decided to just compile them all into a single “Part 3” video. Due to them being taken from various streams, apologies that the sound quality is a bit inconsistent >.< That being said HOW do these trailers just keep getting better & better?? I’m still a couple patches behind 3.0 so there’s still a LOT of context I’m lacking in terms of theorizing anything

[@RexZShadow]

Hope you have time to catch up soon 3.0 so far has been amazing, one of the biggest patch by far!

[@seikijin2308]

There's so much hidden lore in the game. If you want to know more about firefly and what the symbolism of the trailer means you need to look into the Glamoth Relic sets flavour text. Out of everyones backstory so far fireflys is by far the the most tragic. Without spoiling too much even the storm trooper clones from star was have a happier story for their existance. On another note i feel like the success of HSR has allowed hoyo to get really creative instead of staying to mainstream whichs is great. Poor Genshin was their start but being the first it has all the faults that have been slowly filtered out in their newer games. HSR seems to be getting all the amazing story content and ZZZ seems to be getting all the improved model designs (learning blender and comparing games ZZZ model design seems to be quite a bit better than the competitors).

[@RexZShadow]

@ The animation power creep in zzz is real. I enjoy 3.0 but I can see how so many people are mad about it after you seen what zzz get each patch in terms of animations.

Chevy did a very good job with Robin's singing... it's nice how she was a hoyo content creator then they asked her if she wanted to sing for Robin...

[@vidianott]

I love love love that sooo much - I can only imagine how that must have felt for her!! I would have probably sobbed haha 😭

[@jackthejester6841]

Theres also something that further adds and solidifies Jade's biblical theme! During her trailer did you ever notice the big words that would occasionally show up? The trailer was actually listing down the seven deadly sins in latin! Showing them in the following order: • Superbia (Pride) • Invidia (Envy) • Gula (Gluttony) • Acedia (Sloth) • Ira (Wrath) • It doesn't show lust (although you can argue her entire trailer itself represents it) • And she outright mentions greed in her last line

[@vidianott]

*GAAAASSSSPPPP* STAHP I LOVE THIS!!!!!

[@ineedmorecarrots6063]

despite firefly's sweet and timid demeanor, she's ruthless when deployed in a mission. blade proves this statement by saying she's good at sending someone in the purgatory while silverwolf also says that she can't have fun during the missions when paired with firefly because she immediately destroys everything 😂

[@shadowbuddy8034]

Holy heck I didn't even know you did HSR reacts! Love to see it! Getting more content from you is always an exciting time!

[@vidianott]

Awwww yay yay yay!!

[@EnigmataFollower]

Andrew just slay BOOTHILL VOICE, Hoyo did my man dirty without his own myriad

[@vidianott]

YA KNOW WHAT. I would have loved to watch a myriad celestia for him 😭😭😭

[@MegaApostel]

Sunday trailer was soo good I love how Hertas trailer and kit are just full of memes xD Can’t wait for your 3.0 trailer reactions

[@theshig9618]

Vidia, if you like the combination of Magical Girl Transformations and Mecha, check out the older series Tekkaman Blade. Some of Firefly's animations are even kind of based on it, IMO. Also the Anime Symphogear, IMO, blends the 2 design styles really well.

[@vidianott]

I LOOOOOVE Symphogear!!!! I don’t think I’ve seen Tekkaman Blade though- I may have to check it out! 🥰

[@theshig9618]

@@vidianott Tekkaman is a much more niche series. It was an early 90s anime, which got a frankly not very good dub in 95 that was called Teknoman in English. I'm not surprised you've never heard of it. I'd dearly love to see a studio take a modern take on it like they did with Gatchaman.

[@protolight1654]

vidia not knowing ANYTHING about the evils of Dr primitave is suffering. again, cool stuff we cant talk about because spoilers?

[@protolight1654]

do your simulated universes please lmfao

[@vidianott]

LOL who needs boss fights when my greatest enemy sim uni exists

[@RexZShadow]

Oh boy from Nikke to HSR, going to be a ride. It does suck how hard Nikke block their their main story behind ridiculous combat power requirement. I just cleared chapter 32 myself. Its so good but most people won't be able to.

[@vidianott]

My fingers & toes are crossed that I don’t get too bogged down as I continue the story as long as I learn mechanics & build up my units properly 🤞 HSR can be pretty similar in that the boss fights usually rely on the “gimmick” for the patch that some units just do a lot better against vs others…but it’s not nearly as impossible feeling if you’re missing the units

[@RexZShadow]

@@vidianott Ya but HSR difficulty is hard cap at lvl 80. Like you do hit a weird phase when you first reach lvl 80 where bosses are too strong but now for main story they even added in easy mode for bosses. But nikke is rough, my account i been basically play ing every day since first half year ani which is about 1.5 years now. I brought most monthly passes and like good chunk of the $60 skins (so i spend decent but not crazy) And only now did was I really able to kinda brute force through to 32 at like 480k power. Now I did brute it hard I heard from people clear it like 420k so like 400k ish at least? Which is like at least a year of investment to got which I personally think its kinda crazy locking all that good hype story content behind. Granted I'm pretty lazy with nikke like I'm sync lvl like 371 with only like not even 500k while people at like 290 hit like 420k so there definitely some optimization that can be pushed while gated at lower sync level but sync level whole other pain in the ass to raise lol. Like HSR every main story patch is a big hype but nikke like no one talks about main story update because majority of players aren't there yet. On top of that events spoil main story as well, like man I'm actually kinda angry I went through recent Rapi event before finishing 32.

[@vidianott]

Ahhhh I see what you mean *nod nod* That definitely makes sense!

[@RexZShadow]

@@vidianott I'm curious if you plan to stream HSR? I see few video going up to end of Belobog (I love how I always feel like I'm misspelling it coz google tell me its not a word lol)

[@vidianott]

@@RexZShadow Oh ABSOLUTELY!! I adore HSR & want to get back into playing it more consistently - I just wanted to upload some more of the VODs for it before I delve too much back into story! (Because it was actually my first game I tried streaming, the files aren't nearly as organized as Nikke which is why it's taking so long to fix them >.

[@SirJeal]

You also planning on watching the animated shorts? :)

[@vidianott]

yes! 🤍

[@SirJeal]

@@vidianott Great, looking forward to those as well! Hope you keep enjoying the game, but keep taking care of yourself as well!

[@CG-hf2cd]

Sure Firefly has a very high bounty and has done a lot of bad things, but we are talking about a bounty posted by the IPC and the IPC has done many, many more bad things than all the stellar hunters put together in they're lifetimes. Also who says that a large part of that bounty was the IPC making things up to make her more of a target because she is a threat that they would love to get rid of and what better way than to put a huge bounty that would get a ton of people to get rid of her while the IPC doesn't have to do anything. It would be much more cost effective to have others do the dirty work and pay them a huge bounty than to go after her themselves and put a lot of personnel, time and money than the bounty.

[@vidianott]

OOOOhhhhh, I didn't consider that - you're so right!

[@SkyBlade10]

As someone who has been Firefly main since she released, I recommend you watch the animation shorts Myriad Celestia Trailer and the The Embers of Glamoth video

[@vidianott]

Ahhh, I’m obsessed with her!! She may honestly be my favorite female character in HSR so farrr (& there’s still so much to her story that I don’t know!)

[@mochi-farm]

If she pauses one more time

[@vidianott]

*pause*

[@Batmandle]

Slay to my beat bruh

[@Shinransa]

Without spoiling anything, you're way off on how Feixiao's "curse" works. She is a completely different case from Xing Yuan, as you can see she has it worse.

[@YaBoiCart]

HSR INCOMING!

[@vidianott]

YIPPEEEEEEE (Yall are about to witness more characters get the Johan treatment frfr im not even sorry)

[@LordValzy]

I dislike most IPC characters but except for Jade i still have them... Aventurine in terms of gameplay is peak defenender and Topas turned out to be a decent person and very good with Feixiao.

[@The__Blackout]

Jumping this HSR vid to see if anyone knows if Vidia has ever tried Honkai Impact? I've been watching her Nikke stuff mostly but she'd occasionally bring up HSR so I got curious

[@vidianott]

I have not tried Honkai Impact yet! I am super tempted to though because of how much I love HSR 🥰🧐

[@The__Blackout]

@@vidianott oh hey thanks for answering yourself! I'm a big fan of it personally (surprise), it's cool getting to see parallel characters and story ties between the 2 Honkais. Only downside is being really into HI3 means every time a HI3 character shows up in HSR my wallet is in danger...And half the HSR cast also

[@Meeperino]

jing yuan's summon and what feixiao has going on is completely different. you'll find out when you reach the sword dance festival arc.

[@Grimm196]

Jiaoqui's food was all real food. Hoyo really racked up a lunch bill for a character trailer lol. He's also blind Also Feixiao's thing is not Lightning Lord. Only Jing Yuan has Lightning Lord. The kitsune looking creature is something else. And it itself is trying to take over Feixiao. It's a representation of half of her bloodline (now going into details cause that's spoils) trying to take control and make her change become a new person, in a way. (I would totally describe this much better if I said the spoils but I won't)

[@vidianott]

Wait is it really?? LOL that’s amazing, I love how far they’re willing to go with these trailers so much hahaha

[@KumaCraftMC]

Bro stop you're spoils too much

[@Grimm196]

@@KumaCraftMC it's very vague considering I could name drop everything

[@momo8700]

Firefly has a really good myriad and animated trailer. Shes my favourite character I never regret e6ing her

[@ilovedentistry3934]

i am a bit salty now 80 pull one by one get welt in banner of The Herta like he is Below T3 in every End Game content

You'll enjoy the game more if you ignore the dumb tier lists.

If it clears the fight, then it’s alright 🫡

[@TimeOutCrimeCraft]

Some unfunny unrelated stories through all video, awful reaction.

[@floopysan]

Really takes a certain kind of energy to watch an hour long vid to scroll down and comment "unfunny" like anyone asked 💀💀
