Yeah it hurt 😭 I really didn’t wanna have to do it but he had to be humbled…

[@kingdoppelganger8951]

So often when we defeat a villain it feels satisfying. Because they never accept their defeat. And lash out as a result. Call you names. Deny the reality because to them it just isn’t right. We stole their life’s work from them but they don’t make us feel bad because they don’t believe they’ve lost. They only insult and taunt us. The balladeer made me feel bad cause he wasn’t calling us filthy mortals who tried to touch the divine. He was scared to go back to being a mortal. Helpless. Hurt. And in his own eyes a failure. If a villain was scared when they lost we would find it much harder to feel good beating them. If they cried. If they felt heart broken.

[@IceKnight678]

Certainly felt like a victory when the allies defeated the axis

agreed. normally I always celebrate after beating a major boss, but after scara's boss fight i just felt bad for him :(

Not for me, after watching the fatui taking gnosis after gnosis, it's pretty satisfying to see the tables turn on this occasion

[@Mr.Saucy_Lobster]

I just don't know why having the gnosis taken away from him was really sad, the fact that he wanted not for the sense of power (maybe a little) but because without it he lost a sense of purpose, like an ambition

[@Whenpigfly666]

Well if he gets an anemo vision, it must mean he still has plenty of ambition to spare, doesn't it ?

[@lonewolfhero3526]

Well, lets recap... From Aether's point of view, he tried to kill me in 1.1, caused the death of many people via distributing delusions (wich also caused the death of my battle buddy in the army), destabilized the region of Inazuma by taking the chances given of the flawed 'honor' of some politicians, drugged me, ruined the Kaedehara's reputation, and attempted to turn an entire nation in shambles just to fuel his "im destined to become god" complex, tried to kill the Dendro Archon, tried to kill me again, and his actions worsened the problems of Eleazar and the Withering.

Yes, 9:40 is extremely hurtful, but it was 9:46 image that truly pierced my heart. The image of desperation. Look how ungraceful he looks, so animalistic, so *mortal*. His scrambling forward and breaking the glass of divinity showed his true nature - that of not a god. Desperation is a very hard emotion to observe nonchalantly for many. Because it is distress and, typically, end of someone’s life/ rope. (Ha. Ironic, his ropes actually snapped)

[@airitistic]

for me its 9:59 actually

[@88polaris]

yeah and the fact that he vowed to scrub every single humane emotion just adds up to the sadness

[@xoxobvrbie]

Yes, i completely agree; 9:46 was the most impactful for me as well, with the line “I’ll never go back” being a close second. I can heavily relate to his position and seeing that fear and desperation portrayed so fucking accurately to how I felt at a very dark period in my life? It shook me to my core. I couldn’t rewatch this scene at first just because it hurt too much to think about, but thankfully I’m a lot better now. Still, i hope he can let go of his grudges and overcome his grief and trauma like i did. There’s so much outside of ones “purpose” or “world” that can bring you so much happiness. You just have to let go and have an open mind. There’s so much out there. I hope anyone struggling right now can learn to believe in themselves a little; get back on their feet and keep going. This is all there is; don’t cut it short.

as sad as this is, it's pretty interesting to think about his defeat is a parellel to ei's. when you fought her, you needed to use the collective ambitions of the nation's vision bearers against a god's eternal ambition. in this fight, you had to use the collective wisdom of a nation in order to defeat the everlasting lord of arcane wisdom it's interesting to think how scaramouche, the supposed new god of wisdom, was defeated by the very thing he was meant to represent. it mirrors ei's own defeat in using the people's wills to shake her own imo. like mother, like son also i want to get stepped on by both of them so theres that too

Another parallel would be in their origins and how they deal with their grief, both suffered a devastating loss and both then attempted to find a way to never feel that same emotion again.

I love how the cutscene was done almost as if Scara's the main character in it. WE have won, but the music is sad. Because for Scara this is a sad event. Also, the music is a remixed version of the music in "The Divine Will", further pushing the emphasis on Scaramouche. The cutscene is playing his theme, and not the Balladeer's theme, HIS theme, whatever his original name was (it's not Kunikuzushi btw). The cutscene isn't meant to be triumphant or epic like how Signora's was. It's supposed to make you feel bad for him, and for you to know you should do this but to hate you're doing it too.

His main purpose was to store the electro gnosis. That was his "ambition" and he finally got that chance. He had thought that he finally achieved his purpose, and finally showed that he was strong enough for the gnosis. But it was only for a second. He failed. His purpose was to store the gnosis for eternity. And he wasn't able to complete that. He has now been rejected of the gnosis 2 times now. Once by Nahida right now, but previously he was discarded before he even got a chance, by his own creator, his mother, Ei. He was just stripped of his ambition by a God. Does that sound familiar? Let's see if he gets another ambition. Also yeah, I cried when he sounded so sad.

Nahida's matrix and gathering of wisdom from everyone was op tho. Literally an entire nation pondered on how to kick Scara's ass and dhe was able to process all of it

[@Crystaliiisms]

Honestly, Scaramouche needed this loss as a wake up call. Nahida and him aren't that different, so it's interesting to see their different approaches to their own situations. He deserved and needed this loss to finally understand himself and to let go of his past, that's probably why he will get an anemo visions. Anemo represents people who need to free themselves from something, but also people who have already freed themselves.

[@anti-lucifer6290]

words can't describe how bittersweet it was to watch the heart-wrenching scene of his desperation to get the gnosis back omg. that was his whole life's work an purpose - to attain the gnosis and become the vessel of it like he was supposed to be all those centuries ago. he rejects humanity but he has such a human ambition☹ he denounces his own humanity, especially his emotions(because that was what made ei decide to let him go) when he's one of the most emotionally driven characters in the game! it's ironic, really. he's beautifully written and i will continue to yap about that till i die

[@Jxnhn]

He probably wanted the gnosis, because the gnosis symbolize his ambition. Basically without it, he thinks he's not worthy to be a human. Or maybe he treat the gnosis as his "heart" to feel that he's a human just like others. But when he received an anemo vision, there's a chance he treats the vision as his new "heart"

I felt so bad for him here :( all he wanted was a purpose and it just got took right before his eyes, you could hear the pain in his voice when the gnosis was being took justice for scaramouche :((

[@valhersa29]

During the whole thing, I was admittedly fed up because of Scara’s dialogue. He really took the whole “god” thing to the extreme, to - what I’m sure - was his own view of the gods. But when push comes to shove, he’s more similar to mortals than he likes to admit.

[@rnjdzzzz]

“WAIT,NO,ANYTHING BUT THE GNOSIS” Got me sad and wheezing at the same time

[@Maiiruu_n]

The fact that he did all of this just for a recognition even a little bit fom his mother(ei) is kinda sad for me. Its like a child who seeks attention from their parents and will do anything to achieve that. I hope mihoyo would do some kinda event quest where we get to see them reunited even if they forget each other) atleast i wanna see them talk with each other

[@SevPOOTS]

I already knew that everything would turn out like this, so I didn’t want to go through this story, I didn’t want him to feel like that, his look and feelings were so truthful and human, I felt

[@syul.01]

9:40 I actually cried in this scene. I feel so SO bad for scara. He looked so sad I- my heart broke😭😭😭

[@suntailu88]

Y’know, I was wondering why Scara gave up ALL hope on trying to get it back, but then i realized that it’s a Gnosis. Nahida is a god. It wouldn’t be hard for her to, y’know, gain control of it somehow? So that maybe when she touched it Scara truly felt that, yep, he can’t get it back. Like feeling all control has left your hands, and, in his case, his life’s purpose too.

[@mizuki5th]

The best cutscene in this fight is the one where you see everyone trying to help you fight him. You see the citizens getting the question from nahida through the akasha and sumeru feels united for the first time since king deshret’s death

[@adrianna.woohoo]

I remember you Beur, “The God of Wisdom”. And standing beside you, the traveler. *already giving me chills*

[@blunievrse]

I was happy to defeat a boss like him, but when he begged to not take the gnosis from him, i cried my life out, it was his porpouse, he spent his life in it i felt so sad to take it away from him:((((

Sad, but quite satisfying. He was so arrogant towards Nahida with all that shit talking. Nahida kept quiet, despite knowing all too well that he's already fallen into her genjutsu. The fight had already ended before it began, seeing the real god putting the fake god in his place is a well deserved punishment.

[@haruto1831]

right? it's understandable that he was only proving himself that he is no more than just a vessel. but he can literally do that thing without risking lives - if not a nation. all the measures he did were counter productive and instead exacerbated his whole suffering.

[@dearestdoppio8554]

Now this is a nuanced take. Im getting tired of all the simps who are crying for him. "Oh poor scara he just wants to be loved" yeah, as if he didnt hurt and step on other people to reach his goals.

Anyone here after the new stimulanka event? I feel so bad for him now that he didn't have anyone to save him like he did with durin🥺

The music that plays when Scaramouches gnosis is taken away sounds like the trailer theme for Raiden shoguns "nightmare"

[@Natsu]

it's "The Divine Will" though

[@Aventurinesgirl]

The divine will’s soundtrack playing over while he’s screaming “its mine” trying his best to get it back and lose hope it stings😭

[@0xVENx0]

thinking of it now theyre so similar these two both were made by their archon to serve as puppets, but one was just for testing while the other was a fully fledged one one had the gnosis all along, the other had to work for it and earn it for hundreds of years both wanted to become god, but never managed to until this quest and the fact its electro AND dendro, which has a connection in lore just makes it more sad

Scaramouches voice actor had to put food on the table with this voice acting.
