THE BEST DEMO & TEASER YET | Arlecchino Teaser & Demo REACTION | Genshin Impact

[@daysand123]

As Billy Butcher once said "Theres no need to worry now lads. Daddy's home."

[@georgieegames]

omfg I love the boys - this is one of my fave comments ever hahaha

[@hloreyn]

i love that you didn’t look away even for a second all throughout Arle’s demo. ❤

[@georgieegames]

lol I deffo did to look at camera XD but I do have the video up on both screens so I don't really miss anything haha

[@Jothun]

I can't wait for "Father" to come home with the milk tomorrow. Arlecchino's signature weapon is a polearm that transforms into a full on scythe when used on her, other waepons get more of a pyro infusion that shaped like a scythe

[@theimmortal3907]

She is the flame she is saying she is no longer needed

[@geovanagama1]

Now that you said, I agree with that 👍

[@SkyRoseKNA5500]

Fun fact 6:55 the first child that runs past is Clervie from the animated short

[@ridash7ice]

Yeah i notice that too 😢...

[@jdoggivjc]

Yeah, Arlecchino is a polearm user… which means while most are spears, scythes are a type of polearm so it’s much less weird than, say Navia, who is a claymore user that actually wields an axe as a signature weapon.

Good to see your reaction as always. Super hyped for Arlecchino tomorrow (my time) and her demo makes me even more excited. Definitely high up in the ranks for best Genshin demo.

[@georgieegames]

Omg tomorrow?? AHHHH that's so exciting good luck with your pulls!! Oh agreed this demo was stunning!!

[@madfritz3873]

has anyone noticed that the first child that passed her was Clervie, but she was not shown among the singing children

[@sassyquatch1185]

Genshin has always been dark but it used to be mostly self-contained in the world quests and lore till now

[@UnlimitedMichi]

Those who don't know what that eye might mean : 😊 Those who know what that eye might mean : 💀

[@georgieegames]

omfg what does it meaaaaaannn ahhh

[@tobiokun234]

I think she is the descendant of the crimson moon dynasty

[@icepaw1085]

@@georgieegames okay so basically there is this super scary thing called the baleful moon which is possibly like an apocalypse entity thing and its a giant red moon with a crying eye and it seems like arlecchino has been cursed by that moon, sorry my answer isn't more in-depth its quite a complicated thing to explain.

[@UnlimitedMichi]

@@georgieegames there's a book in Fontaine called Perinheri and talks about something.... very interesting 😩

[@Orion_TheyThem]

​@@icepaw1085it is. It's from the book Perinheri.

[@Frey_TRO]

Fatherchino took my wig off with that demo

[@aloureluxe4174]

Georgie: She did just brutally murder a man by stomping on his head and it's kind of like..." Me: sexy???

[@beesdiorrr]

The voice that talks about sparks, shadows, and whatnot is allegedly the Tsaritsa

[@selenaautufuga7597]

The thing is... the children appearing and singing like that... is canonically possible, Arlecchino's flames aren't normal flames, anything they burn leaves behind a shadow of itself, and when she killed "Mother", she also destroyed a large portion of the House of Hearth. She literaly hangs out with small flame apparitions that are born from her dead children as they drive away the madness that threatens to engulf her.

[@RenaDeles]

Another layer to how Father is raising these kids is while she's trying as hard as she can to *not* be like the previous director, we see again and again growing up in HotH means being shaped to treat yourself like a tool to be used however the fatui wants. The dying agent is on her literal deathbed and is still just focused on if she can do another mission. Arlecchino's waying of comforting her was finishing the mission for her, instead of any soothing to her. And family is everything to the children, but we have so many world quests about what happens if you dare dream of leaving. Really sticking Xiao, Childe, and the HotH cast in the room would be interesting. The former two's character arcs are all about how they see themselves as tools, and them either learning to treat themselves like a person more or failing that. And it seems we have similar themes going on with the House too.

[@CurinDesu]

To me the voice in the beginning sounds like Arlecchino when she was a child. And seeing as it's the lines of a book in Genshin it makes sense that she might remember reading it as a child. More so sense it relates the curse.

[@nollie7326]

Yay! Excited for you to play through Fontaine! Just a quick side note I would highly suggest doing neuvillette story quest between act 4 and 5 of the archon quest.

[@FenrisAta]

Father definitely got the Archon treatment. I'm so excited for her, I hate the weapon banner but I will try to get her weapon. Im also excited for her story quest

[@randompersonontheinternet1038]

Scythe is a polearm, it only appears as a scythe when she uses it

[@Shadow_knight902]

I love that you are saying it the darkest thing genshin has ever done, all i can think is lucky you, you didn't got abuse😮 emotionaly by mihoyo ( honkai impact 3rd player speaking here)

[@georgieegames]

Oh I meant the darkest thing genshin has ever done 😫 I've been tortured by HI3 emotionally too 🤣🤣 I get you haha but genshin went VERY dark with this teaser lol

[@aliwi3476]

When you don't play world quests and read minimum lore , it will be dark for normies

[@Shadow_knight902]

@@georgieegames i am specially curious and scared about the pyro archon, because people think she is already dead and it seem that she is call murata, i personaly don't think she is dead, because knowing mihoyo, they wouldn't let pass the opportunity to bring back some trauma with the name Murata. (in my mind while i am writing this: never let's you go...)

[@effortlessfury]

Though Genshin's rise in "darkness" was always going to be a slow burn, it's always been there under the surface. It's hard to talk about without spoiling anything specific (and even what I'm about to say may be considered a tad spoilery, I'm being as vague as possible) but those who've properly finished the desert world quests know what I'm talking about.

[@squaremage]

Skull crushed so hard the blood hit her face. She love her kid very much, now I don't feel like hitting Fatui operatives XD

[@thefrickenchicken1417]

Love the reaction as always. This is part of the reason why Arlecchino quickly became my favorite. She brought such a huge tone shift to Genshin. Before, all the "evil" or "bad" people just felt like Disney villains. Especially Scaramouche and The Doctor. They tried to make them seem intimidating but I honestly couldn't hold back my laughter from the cringe. They actually nailed it with Arlecchino however and I'm certain it's mostly because of her ruthlessness and lack of emotion. In the teaser when she crushed that guy's skull, she didn't say a single word and hardly showed any emotion if any. She's such a mysterious character to top it off which is scary. You never know what she's thinking. Ugh can't wait.

[@Keiki-kun]

the game doesn't need new weapons, Mihoyo just needs to think outside the box Wrio uses catalyst but has gauntlets Navia has her sig weapon as a battle axe and now Arlecchino's spear turns into a scythe when she is using it

[@Picking.a.name.is.hard1]

Arlecchino is serving those Tokyo Ghoul vibes fr. The red wing, the murder, the red eyes, the image of her on a reflective lake with clouds and shit. Its the first thing that came to mind😂

[@Keiki-kun]

of literally all the Demos that Mihoyo has made in these 7 years in all of its games, this is definitely the best

[@zm6947]

Her weapon is a polearm and it only turns into scythe when she uses it. It looks like a normal polearm if anyone else uses it.

[@RenaDeles]

Also I will say for Genshin going dark: so have you done Wriothesley's Story Quest yet 👀 I'm gonna guess no since you just redownloaded, but yeah I *would* give that a try sometime.

[@Amelia-ch]

She is soooo fun to play!

[@lonewolfjedi493osswfan]

Definitely glad I pulled her and her weapon, she’s going to easily beat out Hu Tao as the best pyro polearm

[@theodorejonesjr8093]

I'm not sure who that voice was in the beginning, but to me, it sounds like Lynette may be her. All in all, this is one of the best, if not the best, demo genshin release so far

[@TheCsel]

There was an in game book quietly added to the game recently. It describes a khanrieh hero and orphanage, and sort of an initiation rite involving a hearth and an eye. So there is a strong possibility the Fatui somehow continued this tradition from khanrieh. Oddly enough the khanrieh hero is book apparently changes gender pronouns in Chinese based on the players gender. Which seems significant, but it’s still a bit hard to connect to Aether/lumine. And it’s still not sure how anything connects to Arleccino or what her curse is. We will likely know soon though.

[@jakubbarczyk4310]

Arlecchino is an interesting person, what is more evil? letting children die and starve, be abused or making them into child soldiers.

[@CelesNihility]

make sure to check if the scythe effect is the character's effect or the personal weapon's effect.

[@AnoesiQ]

Its character specific, other polearms will become “ghost scythe”

[@georgieegames]

Ohhh polearm yeah it could be actually I will have to look!

[@CelesNihility]

@@georgieegames ye if character effect, saves you money and don't jeed to pull weapon ✧*｡٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و✧*｡

[@Ivy-jq6di]

She does care for her children but she's also the one training them to become assassins and spies at a young age. Morally questionable character and I love that for her

[@nikosmokas2066]

You need her signature weapon if you wanna use her signature artifact set on her. If i remember correctly wirhout the weapon the artifact set is useless. Well i'm positive to get her but not about her weapon, depends how early i will get her 🥺

[@JazzLafayette]

She uses the artifact set perfectly well with her base kit. You may be recalling that both the artifact set and her signature weapon are designed entirely around her and have much more limited use for other characters.

[@Ivy-jq6di]

her signature isn't that much better from other dps polearms like homa and jade spear. BoL is ingrained in her kit and the artifact set complements it by giving her a bigger buff

[@PauloCaskeira]

Like and subscribe granted. Can't wait to see you play through fontaine Archon Quest Act 5. You don't know what you're missing. ☺️

[@_r._7513]

3:27 Gives me Virgilius vibes

[@kuvrut7747]

Only her signature weapon turns into a scythe, when she uses other polearms there's no scythe effect.

[@kelskinnie]

There's still like, an outline of a scythe if you don't use her sig I'm pretty sure, it just doesn't turn into a proper scythe

[@georgieegames]

ahhhh got it thank you xD so get the character not the weapon (tbf I was deffo gonna get her too) but this will save me some funds thanks :D

[@martinstensvehagen9161]

I mean.. the main plotline started out with a guy kidnapping and serial killing woman. So genshin is not exactly without dark themes, though they are interspersed with humor most of the time, so its easy to not take it too seriously

[@NiramBG]

Oh, do you mean that the plants that grow where children drowned was not dark enough? Or do you mean just the promotional materials? But even then Nahida's trailer and teaser, and Furina's teaser were pretty sad.

[@Natsu]

And also Wanderer's teaser with him basically wanting to unalive himself...

[@something7419]

Arlecchino sometimes gives me Wednesday vibes

[@__Rasse__]

Unfortunately, her scythe only looks like a scythe on her. It looks like a normal polearm on everyone else.

[@Natsu]

Nah, her killing a guy was not a bad thing to do, the real bad thing is she's taking these orphans to make them into children soldiers who can die any moment. Does she care about them? Probably, in her own twisted way. Will those homeless children from the teaser have better life at her orphanage than on the streets? Hard to say.

[@MigueDnB]

"brutal teaser" this girl is a kid? lmao
