>bee tee dubs our god has been striking a pose and waiting for you to notice her for like 10 minutes you should do so soon otherwise she will get flustered
I love this moronic goddess
Artifacts, I've been running Millelith for so long I've forgotten there's anything else. Also getting Yelan's 5th con. Dilucucked out of the 6th for now.
Pull Lyney. I got him in a few pulls.
Still need to do the quests for Nahida, Yoimiya, and Baizhu though, and the hangouts for Kaeya, Faruzan and Layla. So I won't be exploring the new area for the next few days.
This update's pissing me off so far.
Map is about as laggy as using the Hoyoverse app now, specifically the desert.
The poses and background for making a party was completely unnecessary.
Aside from the new area and quests, the update seems focused on TCG which I don't bother playing.
The map is indeed pretty laggy to be honest, it's because the desert has up to 4 layers in places. Still they should really fix that. The poses are kinda cool, look fun although unnecessary I think they make the game look more fresh. The new lighting is phenomenal, especially in quests, makes the characters and scene look much better. Also the new characters have way higher res models than the old ones which is both good and makes it weird when older and newer characters are in one scene. The writing of the new story is pretty interesting so far and they've added a good amount of humor and more cinematics which is pretty good. The map looks fine, I usually finish the quests before exploring but from what I saw by walking around doing quests it looks good enough. As for the TCG, I wouldn't say the update is TCG centered, we have 3 character cards which we get every update, some support cards which happens every other update too and a new PvE rotation in the TCG which they do for a few patches now. The only new TCG feature is the spectate function. Unless you haven't paid attention to the TCG in the last 3 patches which seems like the case, it's standard TCG content for a patch plus spectate mode. I woulnd't call that TCG centered.
Like I said, I won't be touching the new quests for a while. Whenever I see that fricking cat for the TCG, my thoughts automatically go to "they did something significant for that portion of the game." Shouldn't assume so, but I don't like card games much anyhow.
Story but holy shit is it long. However I really like the new story, animations and cinematics. It didn't start very promising but when we got to the magic show I was honestly blown away. It feels like a completely different team did this quest from everything we've had so far. I won't finish it today because I've gotta go to bed, I've done 2 out of the 6 parts of the quest so far but I'm actually excited. Also I actually laughed multiple times playing it, which to be perfectly honest hasn't happened a lot while playing genshin. Also I love the attention seeking awkward goblin furina. Based autistic archon.
Running around like a headless chicken exploring, marking what I got off on the interactive map so I don't run like an even bigger headless chicken because of terrible memory. Pretty fun so far, but the underwater combat needs a complete revamp to either let you keep all abilities and cycle through them or not remove the last obtained one because it's currently moronic. Haven't even started the story yet.
If you're talking about stuff like the pages I am. I left the tiny Oceanid one by the wayside for now and the two other seahorse people quests, but that's about it.

>Swimming outside of Fontaine doesn't use the new Swimming stamina meter, so water is still a fricking annoyance the occasional time where you run out of stamina when flying over or water walking as Mona
Bruh.
Exploration got better but story got 100x times worse and dragged out. I always hopped back in for a new region but it's gotten so dull I haven't even bothered with Fontaine yet
I came back after finishing the archon quest where you beat up Balladeer. The first main quest I did I had to sit through 2 rando men talk for 15 minutes, then Nahida talk for 10 minutes, a slow moving follow the character segement with more talking for 25 minutes, then a 20 minute flashback cutscene. The whole quest had no fighting or exploration, just talking.
The next archon quest had me interact with another literal who character just for the guy to suddenly say "it was me the whole time" and found out it was another memory flash back that has no bearing to the story except Kaeya backstory? What the frick is with the writing?
There are good bits to the story but 90% of it is filler garbage that has to be written by Nasu because it's word salads after word salads that don't explain anything.
>answers all my questions
PLAP? PLAP? PLAP? PLAP? PLAP? PLAP? GET PREGNANT? GET PREGNANT? GET PREGNANT? GET PREGNANT? GET PREGNANT? GET PREGNANT? GET PREGNANT?
Don't worry Collei, I can fix him.
Or
Since him and Areleccino were leaked maybe we just do the memory erase thing with Scaramouche for every Fatui memeber.
Her outfit is kinda lewd. I'm surprise that the same western puritans that ask Mihoyo to censor the whole "molestation affair" from the english script, didn't ask them to censored her outfit as well. I wasn't planning on using her, but she runs pretty damn fast, so she's probably going to my exploration team along with Kirara.
Lynette was raped by some rich butthole in the past, something that is explicitly mentioned in every version of the game (including the original Chinese), except for the English version where 'molestation' was changed to 'hurt' for some reason.
I thought Arle saved her before she got deflowered like the rest of the girls in the basement was that actually not the case the entire time and I was using a second hand loose prostitute while exploring the world? Disgusting! I'll strip her naked immediately and send all her atifacts to someone else.
Only Rosaria, Jean and Amber got censored and that is because they are first charaters you meet. The chinese censors also couldn't be assed to read everything past Liyue which is why Sara and Shenhe are allowed to have boobs.
It seems the way I'd want to play her requires c6, which is kind of a kick in the dick. I like her design and animations and everything. It really just sucks that every character i've liked just doesn't play the way I like, or is just not all that good.
It's why I won't ever use mods lol. People WERE banned for modding when the game came out. Mihoyo is pretty based but all it takes is one call and every modder will get banned, without warning.

The early mods and reshaders all modified game files, which is a big no-no and easy to catch. The current 3dmigoto mods work on in-memory items and don't modify game files, which is harder to catch. They've started banning for it in HSR though, as they can use Lua scripts through the client to detect 3rd party software. I dunno if they've updated GI to do the same thing

The only problem with banning is moronic because the modding tools exist for years and Mihoyo can download it themself to create countermeasure against it but after two fricking years nothing happen.
Its either :
1. they don't care anymore because they already make tons of money without need to sell tons of alternative cosmetic
2. they hate CCCP so much for forcing censoring on them so they let the modder make lewd shit for them.

3dmigoto doesn't modify game files at all, in resting storage or in system memory, it tells your GPU to skip draw calls for specific buffers/shaders, or renders textures as overlays of existing textures, which is why FPS drops and glitches can happen. Everything it does in in-GPU, and is referring to texture files outside of the game dir and the game's memory. What they're looking for in HSR (I think) is known executables running in memory

TL;DR: People don't care. The average person is a moronic consumer and if they hear there's a "private server" for Genshin, they just think "Okay. Whatever." They don't wonder why it exists, how it works, what makes it different, or even if it's worth their time. It goes in one ear, spits out a response to their mouth, and flies out the other ear.

I believe certain overworld mechanics don't work properly as well. >Enemies and NPCs don't spawn in the overworld properly. >You can't just load up events on any version, you need to downgrade to lower versions to play events from those versions which means if you want to play 1.0 events you need the 1.0 client, you can't play the 1.0 events on the 4.0 client.
There is a reason why no one seriously considers it outside of dicking around with beta content, Spiral Abyss testing (Where mobs do somewhat work), or modding skins. It's early Maplestory levels of Private Servers where the skeleton is effectively the only thing you have.

I guess it depends on your priorities then. To me all of that shit is still not worth paying thousands for all the characters and shit. I beat the story F2P, fricked around in the private server for a bit, and then called it a day.

story was pretty long but overall it was okay. did some exploring which was fun. the swimming doesn't feel as clunky as i expected it to be. but, other than that the hydro traveler is pure DOGSHIT
Jesus christ the quest designers have no chill sometimes, I was in that opera house for like two hours. It was an interesting narrative but god damn break it up a bit, I feel like I just watched a movie
>shitty person that did shitty things actually gets judged by everyone and punished accordingly instead of just getting a forced "aw man im so sorry guys please forgive me here's a sad flashback for some extra pity points" moment
more stories should take notes tbh
>some places you have to teleport out of
When a teleport is granted to you, such as at the end of a Domain, this is fine.
If there is absolutely no way for you to walk/climb out, then a teleport to the first Archon statue in Mondstadt is permitted.
Torturecore run.
But if you want something worse, A run where you aren't allowed to use EXP pages.
This is correct. You can't sit on the world level up quest forever because it gates your max Adventure Rank too.
The correct method is to slowly, and miserably, farm every enemy on the entire fricking map that you can every day and slowly accrue level EXP. When you wanna push up a new character, you just sub out one of your current and get to grinding.
Fontaine Archon Quest requires AR40. Which will require you to clear the first 2 Ascension quests. It'll also bump the world level to 5 in the process. However, you can downgrade the WL to 4.
Wouldn't this take hundreds of hours just to get Traveler alone to 90? I've never genuinely seen a natural level up from enemy EXP in hundreds of hours despite using characters who were 80 for ages. Even in the early game I think I went from 1 to 5 and then started using books because it was beyond garbage for the EXP. Even the most EXP-heavy enemies only give what, 200?
It took me about a year and a half to get Hu Tao from 89 to 90 on kills alone. And I used her for everything. Leveling through kills simply isn't a thing in this game.
The old "20 minutes of pressing E" Kaeya method. Theoretically in this instance you would also have taken a Waverider from Inazuma so you'd just run to wherever you docked it, assuming you didn't use it in one of those Sumeru caves. The Aranara story would also force you to do the 20 minute run every time you enter a couple caves because there's at least two or three instances where you have to use a Waverider that gets stuck in a cave/area you can't take it out of.
You can leave Inazuma at any time after finishing the very first bit of the Archon quest and the 1 side quest to get the off-island permit. It takes like 5-10 minutes of driving, but Waveriders don't despawn, so you can drive back when you're done.
genshin's map is so good, imagine a racing game where you have to run across the whole map with no teleports, or guild wars 2 style world vs world on teyvat
I started the archon quest and went to Fontaine
Met the twins and the hydro archon, after that got sidetracked by a world quest then explored underwater for a few hours
Not really in a rush for the story, kind of debating if I want to finish getting the dendroculus in Sumeru before deep diving into Fontaine
That wind-powered fan reward just simulates that updraft you can get in certain parts of Liyue, huh? I won't be surprised when it turns out that the tengu fan gadget is better.
>Anemo traveler is shit >Geo traveler is shit >Electro traveler is shit >Dendro traveler is good >Hydro traveler is shit
Damn. I'd hoped after dendro mihoyo had decided to actually make the traveler playable for people who want that, but I guess not.
I explored, put all 3 statues on the map and a bunch of way points. Its a very pleasant new area, it feels a lot like the swiss alps/scandanavia like i thought it would, and i'm sure the northern areas that expand on it will lean more into that. the underwater areas are very pretty, and a lot bigger than i expected, but the 3 move combat is gonna get old fast. i still have a fair amount of catch up to do before i can continue the story, so i'll just keep filling in the map for now
>Genshin video cutscene folder is as big as whole genshin folder during 1.0 >The Japanese audio file alone is as big as the whole game data file.
Still far less bigger than Warzone file size.
I burned out during Sumeru from the progressive dumbing down of the game and new characters all kind of sucking ass, did things improve? I want more things like last year's summer event.

That cutscene with Navia and Chlordine or Chlorine or whatever was pretty cool. I wonder how she'll use her gun for gameplay, also curious just how many people shes killed in duels.
Hold the shield attack down until you get hit and see a reticle on the enemy. I thought it was a parry but you have to hold it and get hit. Didn't explain it well.
You use the crab shield, take a hit either by its spin or by the things it shoots at you, and eventually it'll gain a shield (Usually after about three hits). Back away a bit (Enough for the crab ability to recover) and return the crab's attacks three times to break the shield which will instakill it.
Manta Ray's gimmick is to swim around for hours until they do their combined attack then shoot the ball they form when they do. Your actual manta ray attack does chip damage.
Seal you have to follow the blurry invisible outline until it stops attacking (Or you can lead your shots well enough), then shoot it with the sonar waves from the seal. This causes it to take massive damage and stun it for a few seconds to let you spam more sonar waves at it.

I rolled for Lynette, got C6 very easily. Got most the waypoints in Fontaine for ease of access, farmed for Lynette materials, and went back to finish Sumeru.
He's the hydro dragon and has been on Teyvat since the beginning. The power levels differ based on the dragon and archon in question >Dvalin is most likely stonger than Venti >Zhongli is stronger than Azdaha >Ei probably killed the Electro dragon >Apep is easily stronger than Nahida >As for Neuv and Furina, we don't really know yet. She seems to get flustered on the spot easily despite creating drama herself, but given Fontaine's traditions of duels I wouldn't be surprised if she started that herself, which means she knows how to fight
She also made the Oratrice and Neuv admits that it's a divine creation that he doesn't understand how it works, so despite being much younger we can infer that Furina has powers beyond Neuv
Apep is stronger than Deshret too.
Dvalin isn't an ancient dragon, is he?
I think Furina is very strong and has much more to show, she's probably a clumsy girl who switches personality once things get rough.
Anyway Neuv is the kinoest character in a very, long while I think. Might roll even though I'm tired of male banners
Dvalin is an elemental dragon from the light realm, but he's not one of the 7 soverigns
Furina most definitely has a lot more to show, guess we'll see what's really up in 4.1
I'm actually very surprised by the amount of actual dead people happening literally in front of us and even some implied rape lines, it's like a whole new team of writers were formed for this Archon quests and decided to give it a bit more serious tone, I hope they keep going in this direction since Natlan apparently has fricking dinosaurs and people survive living in tribes
Genuinely terrible. >Skill takes over a second before it even starts firing. >Makes you a sitting duck as it does this. >The damage on it isn't even that good. >Requires C4 just to gain a shield that can absorb some damage. >Burst flies away from you way too quickly and also pushes you back a bit. >Requires C2 just to make it usable at all. >The primary gimmick of the character seems to be healing and gaining a shield via drops from the SMG, but it's basically unusable until C6 when it gains party healing from the drops the SMG creates when hitting enemies.
I don't see why you'd use Hydro Traveler when Barbara can more or less do what they do better without having to collect the water droplets and has significantly better Hydro application and healing.
So if I understood the Ann story correctly Mary-Ann is the Oceanid who was in charge of raising orphans of all kinds, particularly the orphans of Fontaine and Khaenri'ah. But in the past the water was corrupted due to either the Abyss or the aftermath of Khaenri'ah and Mary-Ann used the fictional stories as a way for the surviving children to have happy memories as they grew up? If that's the case, why lie to Ann to keep going through a cycle of fiction? To keep her from knowing the truth about the outside world? Has she been in a time loop for hundreds of years?
Or is this answered if I continue the main story? It sort of just abruptly ended at act 3.
You get told at the end of the main quest. It's the sea that used to cover the entire planet and from which all life came. Then it went away and was replaced by the current sea. Apparently there's still some primordial ooze out there though. It's noted that it's weird it dissolves people since it originally gave birth to life.
We know they can detect mods since they banned people in Star Rail (only for a few days so not a permaban like morons think). I just don't get why they let people do it in Genshin.
The way they do it in SR is via remote code execution, they fire off lua scripts remotely via the client. I dunno if they're even still doing it after the initial ban wave, since SR has been flagged as a security risk by some AV software, and it wouldn't surprise me if the RCE shit is why. It's not even all that sustainable, since modders can change the executable that their script is looking for and do other things to hide it, creating a stupid arms race. Anyway, they definitely don't want their cash cow to be flagged as a virus, especially since it started off with a bad rep due to the ring 0 anticheat shit and MHY being Chinese
Same deal here. SMAA instead of FSR. The Ann stuff had me literally hanging for 1+ minute on an SSD several times, I saw some jittering here and there during cutscenes, and I'll have moments where it's completely smooth only to drop to 1 FPS for about a minute. The Party Setup screen is also either instant or stutters so badly it takes 15+ seconds to get into.
I just did a co-op match of the dancers and I was stuttering so badly when a couple hours ago it ran just fine in co-op.
I play maxed out at 1440p 120fps or 4k 120fps with 0.6 render with FSR on my TV on my 3080
I say 120fps but it can vary wildly for no reason, especially in cities. I can go from 80 to 120 in the same area, but I don't really care.
>Do the quest somewhere until after meeting cheld (I am taking it more slowly this time) >Explore a bit and appreciate the new scenery and music >Luckshit Lyney in 30 pulls >Unlock the new domain and dump my resin of the day on it to give him some artifacts
So far I am liking it. The introduction was pretty comfy and I like the new characters. For now I have to find out how the pneuma/oussia stuff works and what kind of team to make around Lyney and Lynette.
Pulled Lyney, I wasn't gonna but I saw the free Lynette's boobs bounce with that tight outfit of hers and I just had to get the bratty boy, I'm gonna make them work together somehow
same tbh, I don't know if should just give her Kazuha's entire equipment for support and EM or try and build her "optimal", supposedly she deals pretty good damage as an off dps
I am not sure yet either, I had hoped to be done with that domain for a while after building Jean recently and I would rather focus on the new set for Lyney. I might give her the set I use for sucrose for now
Pulled Lyney, I wasn't gonna but I saw the free Lynette's boobs bounce with that tight outfit of hers and I just had to get the bratty boy, I'm gonna make them work together somehow
He isn't bratty. Did you do his story quest? Now Furina IS a fricking brat
>black screen that basically says "lol he died btw" afterwards
Why the frick do they do this
I hate the black screens summarizing offscreen events so much
SHOW HIM HAVING A HEART ATTACK
fontaine just feels much better to explore because it's european and based on the era that was the height of western civilization. by far the most majestic region, huge upgrade from sandBlack folk and jungles
>Just wanna do some leylines before bed >Bombarded by a frickton of tutorials about pnumatics & hydraulics
why
why did anyone think this shit was a good idea
It's literally just "Characters with the light element slow down the dark element and vice versa". I don't know what Lyney is because I wasn't paying attention but Hydro Traveler is light and Lynette is dark.
>I've got resumé
Lmao, didn't you just get kicked around by Ei during round one and round two was still basically just stalling until the gay fox came to help? Or is my memory of Inazuma's "story" just that poor?
Yeah, I don't really recognize him as a god but even if we do, we literally only won because of law of large numbers, Nahida kept reruning that until we won, which also implies that we got our asses kicked a bunch of times.
>>and they were chumps >Venti isn't even a fighter and was basically a small step up above a Seelie in terms of elemental beings to my understanding. >John Lee literally threw mountains at his enemies casually and even in his retirement is saving entire groups of people through rock magic from miles away against situations stronger than his own creations that we couldn't even deal with. >We could barely even deal with Osial with the help of multiple of his creations, Ningguang, and the Kek King whereas in his time it basically jobbed to him and he was ready to step in if we failed. >Ei cleaved an entire mountain in half fighting an uppity lizard and in both fights we had with her she was holding back. >We lost the first fight spectacularly and only got away because of plot armor. >Yae Miko "trained" us and the only reason we "won" was because Yae Miko planned for us to appeal to Raiden's logical and emotional side with her people. The most we did was hold out, and canonically Ei holds back against everyone she fights to give them a fair shot at proving themselves. We have never fought her on equal terms even remotely. >She then proceeds to battle the robit in a stalemate for like a hundred or thousand years straight and is only just starting to get tired when we check in on her again. >Scaramouche barely had his mech finished and still killed us well over a hundred times before we finally got one successful run, and that was with Kusanali giving us an Akasha Terminal that could attack him while we did it.
So far the only feat we have is picture related. Even in the fight against Marana's Avatar we almost completely rely on Arama's strength to do anything.
Oh yeah, and we nearly died to Signora even though we technically won. Raiden had to step in and give her the old Kowtow Kleave. Childe is like the only feat we have to ourselves and if I remember right we only won because we "TWO!?"'d him and he was suffering from Delusion withdrawal.
If the stars align we have protagonist power. It also takes quite a while for the start to align for us to actually use it and requires us to usually expend our "Power of Friendship" buff each time.
To be honest, she should be intimidated. Raiden would have easily smoked her without the le ebin power of friendship. Nahida is a baby and not a fighter and Venti is a drunk but Zhongli likely could smoke Lumine as well since even pre-god Zhongli was destroying islands.
Honestly from what we see of Raiden in her story quest, I feel like even with the powerup, she still could have beaten Lumine if her heart was actually in the fight and she hadn't already more or less given up.
>want mafia princess >want Sara (French) >want ArlecKINO >want dumb brat archon
Why can't the shitposters claiming that this is a homosexual game ever be right?
Good story, but it's mostly cutscenes.
Region is pretty to look at without going over the top fantasy like Sumeru and Inazuma did.
Underwater exploration is fun for now if you are not a moron getting filtered by the combat.
Pneuma and Ousia are a non factor for now (thank God).
I want to have sex with all the female characters they showed so far.
Haven't touched any of the main story but the side stuff I have has either been enjoyable or at least decent enough. >The map is great but can feel bland at times, especially visually since it feels like Mondstadt with sharper and harsher peaks a lot of the time but without the rolling fields.
They really knocked it out of the park in some areas like Poisson, Annapausis, and a lot of the underwater areas (Especially the trench area). The Rift Wolf summoning circle defense mission areas look great as well. >The new enemies are all fun, I really love their animations and their movesets. The crab miniboss is honestly the only disappointing one. Even the sentient rocks are cool. >The new enemy HP is all over the place. Dogs, the stationary turret things, any of the underwater enemies that come on land, and water droplets die from a slight breeze, but the rocks, higher tier mechs, and some miniboss enemies are the advanced Hilichurl level of health.
The miniboss Eidolon that gives you an achievement on one of the shores is way too tanky though, it had an absurd amount of health compared to anything else on the map. >Water traversal is fine, better than I thought it would be. >Water combat is garbage even with manta ray's DPS but they make you do it all the time. The fact you can't keep the powers permanently to swap between is beyond stupid. >Underwater bosses are even worse because the seal and manta rays force you to play a waiting game to deal any damage at all and the crab is you sitting there holding the crab power until it finally attacks. >The stamina bar we have for underwater is way too low, the fact that the SotS isn't increasing at least that is moronic. >Hydro Traveler is beyond terrible and even with constellations I don't see a reason to ever use it over almost any other character. Even Geo Traveler would be preferable. >Music is alright, haven't heard anything that great that I can think of.
>it had an absurd amount of health
did you hit it with pneuma...frick those words, did you hit it with a light attack? iirc they're dark aligned so light should frick them up, tho I didn't try that because I oogaboogaed it in seconds
Lynette is the only one on my team that can do the swaperoo so sadly, no. Wasn't even sure it worked on the water boys, I thought it only worked on the mechs.
I just gave it a whirl with HMC and nothing interesting happened, so I guess I mistook them for being dark aligned because of the dark "mask" they have on
>Can control rain
There is no way this guy wasn't the real Fontaine Archon, seeing Furina act like a complete clown in the whole cutscene I bet she's just a another person forced pretending to be an Archon or something.
Does anybody use this map?
How do you check the floors underground?
I know there's a toggle all underground but i don't know how to do certian levels
I know you can do it as certain things are one certain floors, and if you click on it, it filters the map for that floor.

no you just cross them off, but people tend to write more, like say you need to do X to unlock this puzzle, or it's a time gated quest, put pics, memes, video tutorials etc.
I see. Official community map do exactly same things like yours (it also save your progress, just need to login your hoyoverse account). Too bad you can't import your progress from other tools to official community map. Good things is community keep improving the map albeit little bit slow.
NTA but oh shit, I just realized that isn't the official map. I've been using it since fontaine dropped because I know I will suffer once the full map is open and I have to collect all occuli and treasure and I don't remember what I already got.
I love the environment, being central European I feel right at home with the alpine environment. And swimming is comfy and fun, even though I can't make Kokomi zora-jump out of the water, even though she should be THE character to make that feat.
But does the music feel a tad generic to anyone else? There hasn't been a single song so far where I've had to find it on israelitetube immediately.
>But does the music feel a tad generic to anyone else? There hasn't been a single song so far where I've had to find it on israelitetube immediately.
Yeah it's on the weaker side. Their main composer hasn't been actively working on the game since Chasm, contributing only select tracks.
This dude hits like a fricking truck and I can't tell what he's doing unlike the consecrated beasts because he's tiny. Cool shit for being the first dude you see in the third desert though, my ascension 2 party is getting wrecked.
I thought that after the Don Sombrero convoluted arc Mihoyo demoted the writers but I see they keep at it in Fontaine
That trial was so dumb it gave me a headache
Is there a good place that summarizes all the lore? I just got my little mind blown by Enkanomiya because I remembered the stuff about the time god from that one quest. Want to know if there are other kino connections like that I missed because of my shit memory.
I love how the devs try to make the characters's breasts as hot as possible while covering the cleavage line in any way they can
man china sucks and chinese feminists suck even more
Downloading it atm and playing it for the first time because friend talked me into it and i dig the animations, designs and especially the music. Also 30% of cosplayers do genshin characters and Im tired of not knowing any
Going in blind, I wonder if it gets me or if i drop it next week
I don't spend enough on girls because hoyo takes a fricking year before they rerun them and by that time I have so much shit saved up that I don't need to spend anything.
They better fricking speed up with the releases/reruns and alt costumes if they want my money.
I imagine the per banner statistics that occasionally get posted here are only based on money spent during that time period so buying gems during homosexual banners marks you as a homosexual even if you spend the gems later on a hag banner.
The water censoring is so annoying. Not because I cant see the butt of the character (kinda stupid when it can be seen everywhere else r when aiming) but because the blur is so big it erases 1/3 of the char model
You know I just got to the part where you learn that Lynette pleased rich old men as a child and thought it was pretty dark and then I saw OP and remembered about Collei, so yeah. There's that.
Book room. Grab your free chests. You'll get a key that leads to more Primos and some weird ass lore.
You'll also be back here after finishing Ann's quest.
Collei was repeatedly violated
By me

Hilichurls deserve to be raped by human men
Pull Lyney. I got him in a few pulls.
Still need to do the quests for Nahida, Yoimiya, and Baizhu though, and the hangouts for Kaeya, Faruzan and Layla. So I won't be exploring the new area for the next few days.
This update's pissing me off so far.
Map is about as laggy as using the Hoyoverse app now, specifically the desert.
The poses and background for making a party was completely unnecessary.
Aside from the new area and quests, the update seems focused on TCG which I don't bother playing.
The map is indeed pretty laggy to be honest, it's because the desert has up to 4 layers in places. Still they should really fix that. The poses are kinda cool, look fun although unnecessary I think they make the game look more fresh. The new lighting is phenomenal, especially in quests, makes the characters and scene look much better. Also the new characters have way higher res models than the old ones which is both good and makes it weird when older and newer characters are in one scene. The writing of the new story is pretty interesting so far and they've added a good amount of humor and more cinematics which is pretty good. The map looks fine, I usually finish the quests before exploring but from what I saw by walking around doing quests it looks good enough. As for the TCG, I wouldn't say the update is TCG centered, we have 3 character cards which we get every update, some support cards which happens every other update too and a new PvE rotation in the TCG which they do for a few patches now. The only new TCG feature is the spectate function. Unless you haven't paid attention to the TCG in the last 3 patches which seems like the case, it's standard TCG content for a patch plus spectate mode. I woulnd't call that TCG centered.
Like I said, I won't be touching the new quests for a while. Whenever I see that fricking cat for the TCG, my thoughts automatically go to "they did something significant for that portion of the game." Shouldn't assume so, but I don't like card games much anyhow.
i'm away from home so i can't play
Story but holy shit is it long. However I really like the new story, animations and cinematics. It didn't start very promising but when we got to the magic show I was honestly blown away. It feels like a completely different team did this quest from everything we've had so far. I won't finish it today because I've gotta go to bed, I've done 2 out of the 6 parts of the quest so far but I'm actually excited. Also I actually laughed multiple times playing it, which to be perfectly honest hasn't happened a lot while playing genshin. Also I love the attention seeking awkward goblin furina. Based autistic archon.
Running around like a headless chicken exploring, marking what I got off on the interactive map so I don't run like an even bigger headless chicken because of terrible memory. Pretty fun so far, but the underwater combat needs a complete revamp to either let you keep all abilities and cycle through them or not remove the last obtained one because it's currently moronic. Haven't even started the story yet.
Some places are locked behind world quest, don't forget to do them
If you're talking about stuff like the pages I am. I left the tiny Oceanid one by the wayside for now and the two other seahorse people quests, but that's about it.

Sorry, brain dumb.

I haven't played Genshin since the quest where you beat up the raiden chick. How was the desert region?
You stopped right before the game entered his peak
Exploration got better but story got 100x times worse and dragged out. I always hopped back in for a new region but it's gotten so dull I haven't even bothered with Fontaine yet
I came back after finishing the archon quest where you beat up Balladeer. The first main quest I did I had to sit through 2 rando men talk for 15 minutes, then Nahida talk for 10 minutes, a slow moving follow the character segement with more talking for 25 minutes, then a 20 minute flashback cutscene. The whole quest had no fighting or exploration, just talking.
The next archon quest had me interact with another literal who character just for the guy to suddenly say "it was me the whole time" and found out it was another memory flash back that has no bearing to the story except Kaeya backstory? What the frick is with the writing?
There are good bits to the story but 90% of it is filler garbage that has to be written by Nasu because it's word salads after word salads that don't explain anything.
>That feel when you're out for a walk.
>Oh no don't pee on my face, Nahida!

sounds like the key to sexo chars then
Don't worry Collei, I can fix him.
Or
Since him and Areleccino were leaked maybe we just do the memory erase thing with Scaramouche for every Fatui memeber.
Her outfit is kinda lewd. I'm surprise that the same western puritans that ask Mihoyo to censor the whole "molestation affair" from the english script, didn't ask them to censored her outfit as well. I wasn't planning on using her, but she runs pretty damn fast, so she's probably going to my exploration team along with Kirara.
Ironically censoring it makes it made the whole situation even more fricked up, maybe that was intentional. Less is more etc.
qrd?
Lynette was raped by some rich butthole in the past, something that is explicitly mentioned in every version of the game (including the original Chinese), except for the English version where 'molestation' was changed to 'hurt' for some reason.
I thought Arle saved her before she got deflowered like the rest of the girls in the basement was that actually not the case the entire time and I was using a second hand loose prostitute while exploring the world? Disgusting! I'll strip her naked immediately and send all her atifacts to someone else.
She was saved from being raped, but it's implied that she was touch inappropriately.
They are discussing on R*ddit, and several people are claiming the same thing.
>touch
touched*
And of course, there are already people who are defending the change.
>they had to imagine Lynette helplessly getting railed by an old man's big fat wiener
nice, smart decision by the EN team, unironically
Source? I heard about a near kidnapping but I find it hard to believe Genshin would ever mention sex let alone rape.
>Collei was raped
>Lynette was raped
Mihoyo really likes torturing their hebes, huh?
kill all americans
I want to put her on my pantyhose team with reeeEEEeeEEeeeEEee, Ganyu, and Monass
Only Rosaria, Jean and Amber got censored and that is because they are first charaters you meet. The chinese censors also couldn't be assed to read everything past Liyue which is why Sara and Shenhe are allowed to have boobs.
Man why did they have to put the extra charge all the way at C4, I want that double dash action
It seems the way I'd want to play her requires c6, which is kind of a kick in the dick. I like her design and animations and everything. It really just sucks that every character i've liked just doesn't play the way I like, or is just not all that good.
oh shut the frick up with that shit, there's no fricking lewd in this game. Character have fricking bubble diapers when they go underwater.
I downloaded a bunch of lewd mods for the first time today and going for a swim is sick.
Based
The loom bathtowel is good, but Hu tao really has the best mods of them all.
Hu has some good stuff.
For me it's the Jiangshi bare foot mod
That smug fricking sperm.
where do you get mods like that? game banana has only LGBT and huge boobs mkds and as hutao gay I don't care about either

source of mod?
the eternal seethe when they start mass banning for this
The word "ban" has been floating around for two years now.
It's why I won't ever use mods lol. People WERE banned for modding when the game came out. Mihoyo is pretty based but all it takes is one call and every modder will get banned, without warning.
> People WERE banned for modding
Source?
Of course there was none.
There was a loverslab thread for the earliest mods but it was eventually locked because everyone was getting banned, posting proof too. I'm not digging it up for you but feel free to find it yourself. Initially you could just delete that censore but Mihoyo changed their security and then started banning people who were modding.
I have no idea why you tards are acting smug like this lol.
>I'm not digging it up for you but feel free to find it yourself.
Every fricking time LMAO.
Why would I lie about this...? Are you mentally challenged? Is modding not against their TOS? I simply shared facts dude.
There are dozens of genshin mods github exist in the internet, zero of them reporting any ban.
You can pick any example just to proved me wrong but instead you went "google it yourself" shitpost method.
>There are dozens of genshin mods github exist in the internet, zero of them reporting any ban.
I didn't say anything contrary to this you copelord. I only spoke about the earliest mods from back in 2021 or whenever the game launched. People did get banned over on loverslab and the modding thread was closed.
They have an anti-cheat that can see what's running on your PC.
And for some reason in span over two years after that zero people got banned anymore.
And for some reason you believe that it's impossible that could change.
I believed it when someone post a link that people get banned right now instead of "google it yourself"
https://www.loverslab.com/topic/179948-genshin-nude-mod/?do=findComment&comment=3599339
they clearly don't care and I honestly doubt the modding scene has any kind of genshin impact on it's ability to make money.
Yeah, Mihoyo can't make lewd character but if people make lewd mod for their official game then those people need to gamble to unlock the character first.
Unless its a mod where you unlock every character without paying then I bet that guy would get banned.
Not a problem for Mihoyo, until normies see the mods of Aether fricking Nahida on Youtube as their first experience with Genshin
>Not a problem for Mihoyo, until normies see the mods of Aether fricking Nahida
There are tons of modding tutorial about genshin in youtube for years already.
I don't think ban is the first thing people should worry about when you post child porn in israelitetube.
Pretty much, and it just makes Mihyo look good.
Then why did they change their file verification system and ban people back then? Why censor the game? It doesn't matter if "they" care or not. It would just take some call from a ccp backed Karen and a lot of people would get fricked. And please post an image of you modding with your UID visible on the forums, they don't care right?
I'm not telling you what to do you autistic moron.
The early mods and reshaders all modified game files, which is a big no-no and easy to catch. The current 3dmigoto mods work on in-memory items and don't modify game files, which is harder to catch. They've started banning for it in HSR though, as they can use Lua scripts through the client to detect 3rd party software. I dunno if they've updated GI to do the same thing
It's not harder to catch since they know exactly how the mods work just like you do, and it is modifying game files. I seriously don't understand why you guys cope like this. You can have all the fun you want with the mods but there is some risk to it.
The only problem with banning is moronic because the modding tools exist for years and Mihoyo can download it themself to create countermeasure against it but after two fricking years nothing happen.
Its either :
1. they don't care anymore because they already make tons of money without need to sell tons of alternative cosmetic
2. they hate CCCP so much for forcing censoring on them so they let the modder make lewd shit for them.
Again, it just takes one call for things to change. They didn't care about the earliest mods either - until they did. Same thing with the censorship. It was gay but it is what it is. I really just don't get the smugness you guys have, do you really want to be like that "im a genius OH NO" meme? lol
>it just takes one call for things to change.
Well they need to do it soon because the game will end in two years after all regions open.
Until that happen people already making tons of sex mod as if this game is Skyrim.
These make believed moronic scenario mean nothing when people already moved on to other game.
>the game will end in two years after all regions open.
Uh
>Natlan
>Snezhnaya
>Celestia
>Abyss
>Unknown God
That's five years at least. Not counting when they reveal what Teyvat actually is which could be during Celestia, Abyss, or the Unknown God portion of the game.
More years for the free sex mods then.
Also, the current arc is called "Episode of Teyvat"
I'm pretty sure the game isn't gonna suddenly stop there. Honkai is moving on even without Kiana
>because the game will end in two years after all regions open.
Right... and One Piece was going to end 5 years ago...
>These make believed moronic scenario
I am simply relaying reality to you.
The reality doesn't mean nothing when it doesn't happen for two years already.
I remember moron like you keep saying the same thing over and over again just for a simple fps unlock mode that just came out two years ago.
Still nothing happen, I know you gonna repeat this for another years to come.
I don't understand why they don't just unlock framerates
>muh bugs
Shit was in the CBT and never had any issues
>muh optmizations
PS5 should be straight forward to optimize for, but it's still stuck at 60fps
>muh Apple exclusivity
You'd think Snoy would pay for that exclusivity over clouds and textures. It's not like Apple devices are capable of running the game at 120fps in the first place
Maybe the actively cooled Macbook Pro could pull it off but there's no OSX port despite the game running on iPad Pros which literally use the same chip
I'm using fps unlocker to play at 144fps and only thing that wasn't working was sumeru desert puzzles. Rotating things were making 390 degree rotations instead of 180 and you needed to restart the game. Also it happened few times that the dialogue was skipped (I played the story with my gf side by side)
>mindless ESL that cannot be reasoned with
okay then
See you next year.
morons unironically beleive that Mihoyo's cash cow will end in 2 years
3dmigoto doesn't modify game files at all, in resting storage or in system memory, it tells your GPU to skip draw calls for specific buffers/shaders, or renders textures as overlays of existing textures, which is why FPS drops and glitches can happen. Everything it does in in-GPU, and is referring to texture files outside of the game dir and the game's memory. What they're looking for in HSR (I think) is known executables running in memory
>I really just don't get the smugness you guys have
massive projection
The only banned happen for account trading, Two years ago one plebbit posted a 15 years ban for "unlawful activities" but when it asked OP what was the ban for there was no real answer.
Multiple Github links for any mods that exist for over two years got zero post talking about their account getting banned for using their mods.
No one got banned for that as far as I know.
Take your meds.
How does me being disappointed equate to me being a troony
The fact that a free private server is available and instead of using that people actually pay money for this shit astounds me. You are literally paying for nothing.
How does the private server even works. I don't get it.
You download it, start the server (or connect to someone else's), proxy your local connection, and then launch the game
TL;DR: People don't care. The average person is a moronic consumer and if they hear there's a "private server" for Genshin, they just think "Okay. Whatever." They don't wonder why it exists, how it works, what makes it different, or even if it's worth their time. It goes in one ear, spits out a response to their mouth, and flies out the other ear.
Okay yeah, fair enough I guess
>astounds me
How?
>Quests don't work properly.
>You have to console command basically everything including every single step in a quest like this is a Bethesda game.
>Damage calculations don't work properly.
I believe certain overworld mechanics don't work properly as well.
>Enemies and NPCs don't spawn in the overworld properly.
>You can't just load up events on any version, you need to downgrade to lower versions to play events from those versions which means if you want to play 1.0 events you need the 1.0 client, you can't play the 1.0 events on the 4.0 client.
There is a reason why no one seriously considers it outside of dicking around with beta content, Spiral Abyss testing (Where mobs do somewhat work), or modding skins. It's early Maplestory levels of Private Servers where the skeleton is effectively the only thing you have.
I guess it depends on your priorities then. To me all of that shit is still not worth paying thousands for all the characters and shit. I beat the story F2P, fricked around in the private server for a bit, and then called it a day. The game is fun when exploring / doing the MQ but people "grinding" for no payoff at all and then flushing more money down the drain is what I really don't understand
People who grinding in this game is the moronic abyss metagays that basically only 1% of the whole player.
Using a private server for other than ducking around with characters is hella dumb.
I understand people who use private servers for WoW because they're in high school and can't pay for the monthly sub
Genshin is literally free lol
to be fair WoW is only fun when play on 20x servers
As i said, I had fun doing the MQ and exploring, but try explaining that the game is free to all the people who love "rolling" for the new character and shitpost about it on here. It's the equivalent of the videos of old folks on slot machines
I don’t think high schoolers play wow or even know what wow is, maybe 18 or 19 years ago they did
I used that example because that's how I played WoW vanilla when I didn't have money
Also private servers in CS 1.6
But I don't see the point of making a private server for Genshin
Aren't they still shitty? Also bless and praise the morons funding the game. If everyone pirated the game would die.
That's very true, and idk I last played a while ago. I did everything and tried all the chars, then quit
Genshin private server is equivalent of Papag.
A cooked discarded trash that people eat because its free.
>when
lol
lmao even
Make the call then
where is his bikini?
farts are lewd
story was pretty long but overall it was okay. did some exploring which was fun. the swimming doesn't feel as clunky as i expected it to be. but, other than that the hydro traveler is pure DOGSHIT
Jesus christ the quest designers have no chill sometimes, I was in that opera house for like two hours. It was an interesting narrative but god damn break it up a bit, I feel like I just watched a movie
Story. The story was fairly long this time. God for Dawei.
Now I have to explore....there is too much content, bros.
>shitty person that did shitty things actually gets judged by everyone and punished accordingly instead of just getting a forced "aw man im so sorry guys please forgive me here's a sad flashback for some extra pity points" moment
more stories should take notes tbh
would've been a good conclusion if the villain was an actual character and not a shitty generic npc
How long do you think a "no teleports allowed" run of Genshin would take to clear all the way through Sumeru Archon quest?
Some guy ran from the Mondsadt where you start to the end of the 3.6 desert and it took him over an hour
Can’t wait to see a full run from the bottom of the map to the top when all the other zones come out
I think there's some places you have to teleport out of, but aside from that...christ it would take thousands of hours
Hardest homie in Teyvat
>some places you have to teleport out of
When a teleport is granted to you, such as at the end of a Domain, this is fine.
If there is absolutely no way for you to walk/climb out, then a teleport to the first Archon statue in Mondstadt is permitted.
Torturecore run.
But if you want something worse, A run where you aren't allowed to use EXP pages.
>A run where you aren't allowed to use EXP pages.
Just don't do ascension quests and only use free characters
but you have to get to certain ascensions to progress the story, don't you?
This is correct. You can't sit on the world level up quest forever because it gates your max Adventure Rank too.
The correct method is to slowly, and miserably, farm every enemy on the entire fricking map that you can every day and slowly accrue level EXP. When you wanna push up a new character, you just sub out one of your current and get to grinding.
I think that AR35 is the bare minimum now
Fontaine Archon Quest requires AR40. Which will require you to clear the first 2 Ascension quests. It'll also bump the world level to 5 in the process. However, you can downgrade the WL to 4.
Story quest requirements top at at AR40
Wouldn't this take hundreds of hours just to get Traveler alone to 90? I've never genuinely seen a natural level up from enemy EXP in hundreds of hours despite using characters who were 80 for ages. Even in the early game I think I went from 1 to 5 and then started using books because it was beyond garbage for the EXP. Even the most EXP-heavy enemies only give what, 200?
It took me about a year and a half to get Hu Tao from 89 to 90 on kills alone. And I used her for everything. Leveling through kills simply isn't a thing in this game.
I'd be interested in seeing just how much exp killing the entire map would give you every day and how long it would take.
How do you go back to the continent after Inazuma without using teleport?
Waverider.
The old "20 minutes of pressing E" Kaeya method. Theoretically in this instance you would also have taken a Waverider from Inazuma so you'd just run to wherever you docked it, assuming you didn't use it in one of those Sumeru caves. The Aranara story would also force you to do the 20 minute run every time you enter a couple caves because there's at least two or three instances where you have to use a Waverider that gets stuck in a cave/area you can't take it out of.
But that would require not leaving Inazuma until beating the archon quest. Would end up missing some dailies
You can leave Inazuma at any time after finishing the very first bit of the Archon quest and the 1 side quest to get the off-island permit. It takes like 5-10 minutes of driving, but Waveriders don't despawn, so you can drive back when you're done.
Nah, there's still the thunderstorm around the islands
genshin's map is so good, imagine a racing game where you have to run across the whole map with no teleports, or guild wars 2 style world vs world on teyvat
imagine if the teapot wasn't instanced
She deserves a new hangout event.
I started the archon quest and went to Fontaine
Met the twins and the hydro archon, after that got sidetracked by a world quest then explored underwater for a few hours
Not really in a rush for the story, kind of debating if I want to finish getting the dendroculus in Sumeru before deep diving into Fontaine
>getting honkai star rail dailies in 4.1
Neat
Why does Lyney have a tear tattoo? Did he murder someone?
How do I unlock dailys in fontaine?
Keep doing the story
Really? I just did the entire murder trial.
Touch all of the statues of seven and finish act 2 of the archon quest
Did anyone else think it was a little disrespectful of Paimon to put on those glasses after some random dude just got squished?
NPC lives don't matter
>Artifact inventory was raised to 1800
Was that so fricking hard, Mihoyo?
he was dissolving motherfrickers
When she did this all I could think was "Paimon, people are fricking dead" and she kept them on for the whole fricking case
>The first reputation reward is Steak Tartare
She won, bros...
That wind-powered fan reward just simulates that updraft you can get in certain parts of Liyue, huh? I won't be surprised when it turns out that the tengu fan gadget is better.
>Anemo traveler is shit
>Geo traveler is shit
>Electro traveler is shit
>Dendro traveler is good
>Hydro traveler is shit
Damn. I'd hoped after dendro mihoyo had decided to actually make the traveler playable for people who want that, but I guess not.
Dendro MC is only good because almost all other dendros are crap
I explored, put all 3 statues on the map and a bunch of way points. Its a very pleasant new area, it feels a lot like the swiss alps/scandanavia like i thought it would, and i'm sure the northern areas that expand on it will lean more into that. the underwater areas are very pretty, and a lot bigger than i expected, but the 3 move combat is gonna get old fast. i still have a fair amount of catch up to do before i can continue the story, so i'll just keep filling in the map for now
I want to eat her macarons
>Genshin video cutscene folder is as big as whole genshin folder during 1.0
>The Japanese audio file alone is as big as the whole game data file.
Still far less bigger than Warzone file size.
Where the frick do I find Bulle fruits? I think I might be moronic.
on trees
Nvm, I finally found some.
What if everyone and everything gets replaced with Keqing?
what the frick is this thing
Sexo
That thing on the left? A pedophile.
I want to have sex with Furina and Navia at the same time.
I burned out during Sumeru from the progressive dumbing down of the game and new characters all kind of sucking ass, did things improve? I want more things like last year's summer event.
If anything, it's getting worse and lazier new that they're divided further with star rail
Unfortunate
>new that they're divided further with star rail
lmao they got over 3k people working all over their game.
They add another 500 for SR.
>did things improve?
you should quit. it gets worse later on
As someone that hated Sumeru, Fontaine is a lot better. I'm having a great time.

She's a dork, definitely the loser of the archon family.
Here's hoping she decides to "vacation" in Natlan and tags along with us for an entire region.
>She gets to make the wise-crack joke of "raining on your parade" to the Natlan Archon
Hearing about the fact that are different tribes in Natlan from an npc made me hopeful that at least one of them is composed of tanned hebes.
Just finished part 2 of the quest holy momma that plot twist in the fountain was great hope we will get prophecy kino soon.
Who the frick put Dark Souls boss in this game?
How the frick do you beat this guy anyways? I’m not taking like a hour to slowly clip away at his hp
That cutscene with Navia and Chlordine or Chlorine or whatever was pretty cool. I wonder how she'll use her gun for gameplay, also curious just how many people shes killed in duels.
Hold the shield attack down until you get hit and see a reticle on the enemy. I thought it was a parry but you have to hold it and get hit. Didn't explain it well.
You use the crab shield, take a hit either by its spin or by the things it shoots at you, and eventually it'll gain a shield (Usually after about three hits). Back away a bit (Enough for the crab ability to recover) and return the crab's attacks three times to break the shield which will instakill it.
Manta Ray's gimmick is to swim around for hours until they do their combined attack then shoot the ball they form when they do. Your actual manta ray attack does chip damage.
Seal you have to follow the blurry invisible outline until it stops attacking (Or you can lead your shots well enough), then shoot it with the sonar waves from the seal. This causes it to take massive damage and stun it for a few seconds to let you spam more sonar waves at it.
>spin 2 win
fake
You charge up your shield and reflect massive damage back to the enemy.
>Childe getting treated like the jobber he is
SHE SPEAKS
Kino
Her toes were the first things I looked at in that picture.
wasn't modding an insta ban? what happen? private servers?
why is the verification so long? the update is quicker?

How do you unlock fontaine commission and reputation quests?
Finish part 2 of the quest and light up the map
sex with lynette
She already had tons of sex with men when she got sold before her bro could buy her back.

The Fontaine story is really, really good so far.
Saving this hilarious shitpost for 5.0 update.
>literally just the truth
>not a single recommendation for you
How is this hilarious or a shitpost? You are so fricking stupid lmao.
Sure anon, see you in 5.0.
You are actually a subhuman with a monkey's IQ. I didn't even say they would ban you, only that they could.
Sure, still waiting those bans.
2.0...3.0...4.0...
>Arrive in Fontaine
>Furina starts shit IMMEDIATELY
Okay, I know nothing so far and I'm already convinced Lyney is a god & he's pissed that the land he & his sis ruled over is now underwater.
Considering he wears women's underwear, I say he deserves it.
Technically, Paimon started shit BY BREAKING THE LAW.
>Paimon goes from an irritating nuisance to an active detriment
I can't wait to smash her face in when she's revealed as the secret bad guy.
You can already smash her face if you buy the official Paimon plush by Mihoyo, it's the best seller item in our shop!
>patch night
Nothing, I slept through it.
>next day
I rolled for Lynette, got C6 very easily. Got most the waypoints in Fontaine for ease of access, farmed for Lynette materials, and went back to finish Sumeru.
Dehyabros..
heizou but he ice
He's not a pretty brown girl.
I love my Dehya and have never removed her from my team since.
But can he jump during his burst? I didn't think so
budget nilou??
event weapon or gacha?
Probably gacha unless they are adding another series of craftables in.
These weapons look badass, except the catalyst. Mechanical magic book is stupid.
How strong is Neuv? He literally broke Childe in a second. Is he above Archons? Why would he just stay as a shitty judge?
He's the hydro dragon and has been on Teyvat since the beginning. The power levels differ based on the dragon and archon in question
>Dvalin is most likely stonger than Venti
>Zhongli is stronger than Azdaha
>Ei probably killed the Electro dragon
>Apep is easily stronger than Nahida
>As for Neuv and Furina, we don't really know yet. She seems to get flustered on the spot easily despite creating drama herself, but given Fontaine's traditions of duels I wouldn't be surprised if she started that herself, which means she knows how to fight
She also made the Oratrice and Neuv admits that it's a divine creation that he doesn't understand how it works, so despite being much younger we can infer that Furina has powers beyond Neuv
Apep is stronger than Deshret too.
Dvalin isn't an ancient dragon, is he?
I think Furina is very strong and has much more to show, she's probably a clumsy girl who switches personality once things get rough.
Anyway Neuv is the kinoest character in a very, long while I think. Might roll even though I'm tired of male banners
Dvalin is an elemental dragon from the light realm, but he's not one of the 7 soverigns
Furina most definitely has a lot more to show, guess we'll see what's really up in 4.1
What artifact set do I give Dehya?
I just got her rolling for Yelan, dont feel like rolling more since wriothselay looks really cool.
is there a minigame where you can hyperextend your units fingers until they snap?
Inquisitive reminder
We can fly now?
they can fly, the savages can't.

Main quest FINISHED

Yep it's shelved until 4.1 time
I'm in the second court case, how much more do I have?
That's pretty much close to the end
Thanks. I can't play this weekend so I was kinda rushing.
Not much left. Once you solve the Navia case you're done
I'm actually very surprised by the amount of actual dead people happening literally in front of us and even some implied rape lines, it's like a whole new team of writers were formed for this Archon quests and decided to give it a bit more serious tone, I hope they keep going in this direction since Natlan apparently has fricking dinosaurs and people survive living in tribes
I enjoyed it much more than the older quests. Neuvillette seems to be a deeper character than the old ones, too. Finally some stakes
How is hydro MC?
bad
Genuinely terrible.
>Skill takes over a second before it even starts firing.
>Makes you a sitting duck as it does this.
>The damage on it isn't even that good.
>Requires C4 just to gain a shield that can absorb some damage.
>Burst flies away from you way too quickly and also pushes you back a bit.
>Requires C2 just to make it usable at all.
>The primary gimmick of the character seems to be healing and gaining a shield via drops from the SMG, but it's basically unusable until C6 when it gains party healing from the drops the SMG creates when hitting enemies.
I don't see why you'd use Hydro Traveler when Barbara can more or less do what they do better without having to collect the water droplets and has significantly better Hydro application and healing.
Unironically the worst character in the game.
So if I understood the Ann story correctly Mary-Ann is the Oceanid who was in charge of raising orphans of all kinds, particularly the orphans of Fontaine and Khaenri'ah. But in the past the water was corrupted due to either the Abyss or the aftermath of Khaenri'ah and Mary-Ann used the fictional stories as a way for the surviving children to have happy memories as they grew up? If that's the case, why lie to Ann to keep going through a cycle of fiction? To keep her from knowing the truth about the outside world? Has she been in a time loop for hundreds of years?
Or is this answered if I continue the main story? It sort of just abruptly ended at act 3.
I finished that quest and still have no idea what happened
Btw, did they ever explained what the frick is the primordial sea? They use that term like we're supposed to know what it is
You get told at the end of the main quest. It's the sea that used to cover the entire planet and from which all life came. Then it went away and was replaced by the current sea. Apparently there's still some primordial ooze out there though. It's noted that it's weird it dissolves people since it originally gave birth to life.
Bros im torn. Do I go jp dub or en dub for the archon quest?
CN dub because paimon va is better in cn
Just finished the 2nd archon quest
The part where Marcel gets his soul stolen by all the girls he killed actually creeped me out. Sasuga Fat Xiao.

Exploring the place
also lots of swimming
We know they can detect mods since they banned people in Star Rail (only for a few days so not a permaban like morons think). I just don't get why they let people do it in Genshin.
You sure? Star Rail is newer.
Not enough people do it to be worth the effort, likely.
Way more people mod Genshin than HSR
Yeah but I mean relative to the playerbase.
Star Rail was made after and probably had the detector built already, they didn't implement it on Genshin yet I guess.
The way they do it in SR is via remote code execution, they fire off lua scripts remotely via the client. I dunno if they're even still doing it after the initial ban wave, since SR has been flagged as a security risk by some AV software, and it wouldn't surprise me if the RCE shit is why. It's not even all that sustainable, since modders can change the executable that their script is looking for and do other things to hide it, creating a stupid arms race. Anyway, they definitely don't want their cash cow to be flagged as a virus, especially since it started off with a bad rep due to the ring 0 anticheat shit and MHY being Chinese
All Mihoyo wanted is fear monging and making an example out of them.
>killing the chicken to warn the monkey

Chapter 2 spoilers
Tartaglia just got one shotted LMAO
does anybody here play the game at max settings?
Not high settings but at everything maxed out including render resolution.
How does the game run for you?
It's choppy for me, despite my gpu not reaching anywhere near max, i want to know if it's normal.
Same deal here. SMAA instead of FSR. The Ann stuff had me literally hanging for 1+ minute on an SSD several times, I saw some jittering here and there during cutscenes, and I'll have moments where it's completely smooth only to drop to 1 FPS for about a minute. The Party Setup screen is also either instant or stutters so badly it takes 15+ seconds to get into.
I just did a co-op match of the dancers and I was stuttering so badly when a couple hours ago it ran just fine in co-op.
I play maxed out at 1440p 120fps or 4k 120fps with 0.6 render with FSR on my TV on my 3080
I say 120fps but it can vary wildly for no reason, especially in cities. I can go from 80 to 120 in the same area, but I don't really care.

So far I am liking it. The introduction was pretty comfy and I like the new characters. For now I have to find out how the pneuma/oussia stuff works and what kind of team to make around Lyney and Lynette.
Nice general genkeks
wrong tab chud
Shut the FRICK up seele
Wrong board honkbab
Fricking hell, guess I'll ask my question here. How did Marcel remotely dissolve that soldier?
he didn't, it was established the water takes some time to take effect
So he planned to erase the dude regardless if he betrayed him or not? Marcel was such a piece of shit, man. Deserved that death 200%.
Is Lynette the first canon non virgin character?
>collei
>lynette
>at least two hebes canonically raped in just two regions
What the frick is wrong with fat xiao
He has great taste.
no she was just sold and the dude was killed by the lady before anything happened
c'mon bro, we all know that's not what happened.
>he doesnt know
lyney chased her the minute after finding out
after seeing the porn videos of her you mean.
The rich bastard got killed before she got fricked in the pussy.
>underwater exploration is actually good
why is fontaine so good
which one does furina use?
bro, they won't release her for at least half a year
>they won't release her for at least half a year
If by half a year you mean exactly 3 months from now, yeah.
she's flat, so it should be obvious
Pulled Lyney, I wasn't gonna but I saw the free Lynette's boobs bounce with that tight outfit of hers and I just had to get the bratty boy, I'm gonna make them work together somehow
It appears that he works best in mono or triple pyro + Kazuha teams. I think I am going to give the latter a try but with Lynette instead
same tbh, I don't know if should just give her Kazuha's entire equipment for support and EM or try and build her "optimal", supposedly she deals pretty good damage as an off dps
I am not sure yet either, I had hoped to be done with that domain for a while after building Jean recently and I would rather focus on the new set for Lyney. I might give her the set I use for sucrose for now
Got Lyney. Is he even any good? He's cute, but I dunno if he really does damage.
he uses a bow so he's automatic shit tier in my head, unless I see water arrows behind me.
He's very strong.
He isn't bratty. Did you do his story quest? Now Furina IS a fricking brat
he winks and bleps, he wants adult wiener in his ass and taunts adults like that
Is Neuvillette from another world too?
he's a dragonbro
Jesus. I didn't expect things to get this dark.
Genshin is pretty dark in general. Tons of people die and everyone has a tragic past.
I mean, it wasn't significantly more dark than a guy getting dissolved on-screen.
>black screen that basically says "lol he died btw" afterwards
Why the frick do they do this
I hate the black screens summarizing offscreen events so much
SHOW HIM HAVING A HEART ATTACK
>every child character has a dead parent in this game
>i didnt think things would get dark....
based side quest skipper.
Future banners?
fontaine just feels much better to explore because it's european and based on the era that was the height of western civilization. by far the most majestic region, huge upgrade from sandBlack folk and jungles
agreed, feels like mondstalt (H)2.0
agreed. glad i can explore mondstat 2.0
i love these dudes
they're going hard with the pokemons in fontaine and I love it
Navia > Arlecchino > Clorinde > Furina
Archon isn't even the best girl in her own nation
I'm partial to Furina since I find her JP dub extremely erotic. I'll admit the androgynous voice isn't for everyone. I liked Navia too
>Just wanna do some leylines before bed
>Bombarded by a frickton of tutorials about pnumatics & hydraulics
why
why did anyone think this shit was a good idea
It's very simple. Just skip it and learn as you play
I don't want to get an engineering degree just to beat up some monsters.
Bro you're unironically low IQ if you don't get it in a second, I never read tutorials myself
You can ignore it completely and have zero problems dealing with anything
you can ignore it can press left mouse button. remember, this game is designed especially for you.
It's literally just "Characters with the light element slow down the dark element and vice versa". I don't know what Lyney is because I wasn't paying attention but Hydro Traveler is light and Lynette is dark.
>Furina challenges Loom to a duel
>Loom doesn't just pick her up and run
Loom pulls out her sword, which is beyond basado.
Loom is no longer in the mood for games. Gone are the days when she would bribe you with an apple.
>I've got resumé
Lmao, didn't you just get kicked around by Ei during round one and round two was still basically just stalling until the gay fox came to help? Or is my memory of Inazuma's "story" just that poor?
Scaradouche was technically a god when you fight him, but even then it was Nahida doing most of the work.
Yeah, I don't really recognize him as a god but even if we do, we literally only won because of law of large numbers, Nahida kept reruning that until we won, which also implies that we got our asses kicked a bunch of times.
She fought twice against the electro archon and survived to tell the tale.
Even Venti would be able to bend this dumb kid over and sodomize her, let alone a actually strong archon like Zhong or a battle autist like Ei.
Furina small
>stood there striking a pose for (You) to notice her
My wife Furina is so cute.
I love how Lumine is not intimidated at all by her being an archon was ready to throw down immediately.
We already have been through four and they were chumps
>>and they were chumps
>Venti isn't even a fighter and was basically a small step up above a Seelie in terms of elemental beings to my understanding.
>John Lee literally threw mountains at his enemies casually and even in his retirement is saving entire groups of people through rock magic from miles away against situations stronger than his own creations that we couldn't even deal with.
>We could barely even deal with Osial with the help of multiple of his creations, Ningguang, and the Kek King whereas in his time it basically jobbed to him and he was ready to step in if we failed.
>Ei cleaved an entire mountain in half fighting an uppity lizard and in both fights we had with her she was holding back.
>We lost the first fight spectacularly and only got away because of plot armor.
>Yae Miko "trained" us and the only reason we "won" was because Yae Miko planned for us to appeal to Raiden's logical and emotional side with her people. The most we did was hold out, and canonically Ei holds back against everyone she fights to give them a fair shot at proving themselves. We have never fought her on equal terms even remotely.
>She then proceeds to battle the robit in a stalemate for like a hundred or thousand years straight and is only just starting to get tired when we check in on her again.
>Scaramouche barely had his mech finished and still killed us well over a hundred times before we finally got one successful run, and that was with Kusanali giving us an Akasha Terminal that could attack him while we did it.
So far the only feat we have is picture related. Even in the fight against Marana's Avatar we almost completely rely on Arama's strength to do anything.
Oh yeah, and we nearly died to Signora even though we technically won. Raiden had to step in and give her the old Kowtow Kleave. Childe is like the only feat we have to ourselves and if I remember right we only won because we "TWO!?"'d him and he was suffering from Delusion withdrawal.
So what you're saying is we have protagonist power
She should be afraid
If the stars align we have protagonist power. It also takes quite a while for the start to align for us to actually use it and requires us to usually expend our "Power of Friendship" buff each time.
To be honest, she should be intimidated. Raiden would have easily smoked her without the le ebin power of friendship. Nahida is a baby and not a fighter and Venti is a drunk but Zhongli likely could smoke Lumine as well since even pre-god Zhongli was destroying islands.
Honestly from what we see of Raiden in her story quest, I feel like even with the powerup, she still could have beaten Lumine if her heart was actually in the fight and she hadn't already more or less given up.
Raiden is able to fight at full power for hundred of years. She could probably overturn Celestia on her own if she werent terminally moronic
No. She's afraid of Celestia.
>Open menu
>Paimon isn't on a leash
One job.
>want mafia princess
>want Sara (French)
>want ArlecKINO
>want dumb brat archon
Why can't the shitposters claiming that this is a homosexual game ever be right?
They put them back to back to make waifugays open their wallets
It's insidious and it works
Yea, I'm in the same boat.
But if I am to skip on it will be French Sara, as we have enough of hot electro hags already.
Not there yet but what's verdict so far for Fontaine?
holy KINOOOOO
you better quit this game. it gets worse later on
Best region they've released
Actually good.
bratty archon correction
She's like the youngest sibling that no one likes but gets treated like a princess by the parents.
Good story, but it's mostly cutscenes.
Region is pretty to look at without going over the top fantasy like Sumeru and Inazuma did.
Underwater exploration is fun for now if you are not a moron getting filtered by the combat.
Pneuma and Ousia are a non factor for now (thank God).
I want to have sex with all the female characters they showed so far.
Haven't touched any of the main story but the side stuff I have has either been enjoyable or at least decent enough.
>The map is great but can feel bland at times, especially visually since it feels like Mondstadt with sharper and harsher peaks a lot of the time but without the rolling fields.
They really knocked it out of the park in some areas like Poisson, Annapausis, and a lot of the underwater areas (Especially the trench area). The Rift Wolf summoning circle defense mission areas look great as well.
>The new enemies are all fun, I really love their animations and their movesets. The crab miniboss is honestly the only disappointing one. Even the sentient rocks are cool.
>The new enemy HP is all over the place. Dogs, the stationary turret things, any of the underwater enemies that come on land, and water droplets die from a slight breeze, but the rocks, higher tier mechs, and some miniboss enemies are the advanced Hilichurl level of health.
The miniboss Eidolon that gives you an achievement on one of the shores is way too tanky though, it had an absurd amount of health compared to anything else on the map.
>Water traversal is fine, better than I thought it would be.
>Water combat is garbage even with manta ray's DPS but they make you do it all the time. The fact you can't keep the powers permanently to swap between is beyond stupid.
>Underwater bosses are even worse because the seal and manta rays force you to play a waiting game to deal any damage at all and the crab is you sitting there holding the crab power until it finally attacks.
>The stamina bar we have for underwater is way too low, the fact that the SotS isn't increasing at least that is moronic.
>Hydro Traveler is beyond terrible and even with constellations I don't see a reason to ever use it over almost any other character. Even Geo Traveler would be preferable.
>Music is alright, haven't heard anything that great that I can think of.
>it had an absurd amount of health
did you hit it with pneuma...frick those words, did you hit it with a light attack? iirc they're dark aligned so light should frick them up, tho I didn't try that because I oogaboogaed it in seconds
Lynette is the only one on my team that can do the swaperoo so sadly, no. Wasn't even sure it worked on the water boys, I thought it only worked on the mechs.
I just gave it a whirl with HMC and nothing interesting happened, so I guess I mistook them for being dark aligned because of the dark "mask" they have on
Still haven't touched the current story. Does Furina really have that split personality or just a schizo?
She's just a dork
She's haughty. Play with EN dub.
Screw you! I like her jp boyish tone more.
shes a schizo
She is moronic. Her INT stat is decent, but her WIS stat is abysmal.
>INT and WIS are different stats
You can be good at doing math but make horrible decisions in life.
>implying math takes high intelligence
That's literally one of the definition of intelligence you dumbass
yes moron
She's a dumb kid and the poster child for rape correction, but nothing so far hints at her being a schizo.
She's literally a paper tiger.
>Play with EN dub.
JP is a miscast
I use CN though, you stupid weeb Black person
>bug language
no thanks
wtf is that real??
I'm sorry, I just don't care anymore. I really don't want to be skipping through mountains of intentionally useless text. Surely the chinks know this
is it true there's a mating press QTE in this game?
Yes, it's going to come up during Furina's story quest when you have to rape the brattiness out of her.
New pokemon dropped. What do I think of it?
love the animations, beam reminds me of Destiny 2's Warlock.
>this is the average water enjoyer
coffeegays in shambles
>water
homie that's wine.
Nice try, coffeegay. That pure fricking wa'a.
>stops the rain
>sends it back
Pretty fricking cool
>Can control rain
There is no way this guy wasn't the real Fontaine Archon, seeing Furina act like a complete clown in the whole cutscene I bet she's just a another person forced pretending to be an Archon or something.
he's the Hydro Dragon
the story basically spells it out for you
Kino
>C6 makes his beam last 3x longer and gets stronger the longer you channel it
Genuinely tempting
seriously? jesus christ a fricking homosexual tall male might actually be my first c6
>Get hit mid animation
>Lose 50% of your DPS
And his E looks like Klee's mines, which are terrible.
AHHHHH WHY ARE THEY MAKING THE CHARACTERS I DON'T WANT TO PULL FOR SO FRICKING COOL MOVESET WISE!
>dickbeam
>cool
yes???
Why is Henri getting tortured
he got caught breeding the hilichurls
Great day for a walk, isn't it?
Does Kokomi/Beidou's talent and anemo resonance work underwater?
Does anybody use this map?
How do you check the floors underground?
I know there's a toggle all underground but i don't know how to do certian levels
I know you can do it as certain things are one certain floors, and if you click on it, it filters the map for that floor.

>not using official community map
homie u dum
https://act.hoyolab.com/ys/app/interactive-map/index.html?lang=en-us#/map/2?shown_types=
you mean this?
it doesn't keep track of what you have gottern
https://genshin-impact-map.appsample.com/
that's the one i currently use I posted it here
>it doesn't keep track of what you have gottern
unfortunate, you need to manually tick off everything otherwise its a useful tool
wait... the one you use can automatically track what youve gotten in your world if you linked your UID to their tool?
no you just cross them off, but people tend to write more, like say you need to do X to unlock this puzzle, or it's a time gated quest, put pics, memes, video tutorials etc.
I see. Official community map do exactly same things like yours (it also save your progress, just need to login your hoyoverse account). Too bad you can't import your progress from other tools to official community map. Good things is community keep improving the map albeit little bit slow.
NTA but oh shit, I just realized that isn't the official map. I've been using it since fontaine dropped because I know I will suffer once the full map is open and I have to collect all occuli and treasure and I don't remember what I already got.
Nahida to Furina is a whiplash.
Also gonna dip a little into Furina savings for Neuv. He's genuinely kino
You need c4 for him to be playable
NTA but I'm playing physical traveler who does 2000 crit damage, you think I can't play Neuvillette C0?
>move 50m
>cutscene
>press auto
I love the environment, being central European I feel right at home with the alpine environment. And swimming is comfy and fun, even though I can't make Kokomi zora-jump out of the water, even though she should be THE character to make that feat.
But does the music feel a tad generic to anyone else? There hasn't been a single song so far where I've had to find it on israelitetube immediately.
>But does the music feel a tad generic to anyone else? There hasn't been a single song so far where I've had to find it on israelitetube immediately.
Yeah it's on the weaker side. Their main composer hasn't been actively working on the game since Chasm, contributing only select tracks.
homie what the frick is this
Sex.
sex
Cute litte slug thing that we'll never be able to roll for, ever.
>but
No.
At least we will have a human version of her, the e-girl this region is a slug thingy
SEEEEEEXXXXXX
This dude hits like a fricking truck and I can't tell what he's doing unlike the consecrated beasts because he's tiny. Cool shit for being the first dude you see in the third desert though, my ascension 2 party is getting wrecked.
I thought that after the Don Sombrero convoluted arc Mihoyo demoted the writers but I see they keep at it in Fontaine
That trial was so dumb it gave me a headache
N-Nani?!
Is there a good place that summarizes all the lore? I just got my little mind blown by Enkanomiya because I remembered the stuff about the time god from that one quest. Want to know if there are other kino connections like that I missed because of my shit memory.
me on the right
>Lost the 50/50 to Keqing
Seems like I'll go another round without Yelan. At least I guarantee the brat archon.
Navia looks gorgeous. What do we know about her besides being geo?
she's dehya 2.0

I love how the devs try to make the characters's breasts as hot as possible while covering the cleavage line in any way they can
man china sucks and chinese feminists suck even more
what does this sign say?
The pleasure of being cummed inside
He was buried for a reason you know
Downloading it atm and playing it for the first time because friend talked me into it and i dig the animations, designs and especially the music. Also 30% of cosplayers do genshin characters and Im tired of not knowing any
Going in blind, I wonder if it gets me or if i drop it next week
you should quit now. it gets worse later on
Not a gacha guy so I think Ill be fine
reminder that lyney looks like a gay because you don't spend enough on cute girls, so hoyo thinks hikikomoris are their target audience
I don't spend enough on girls because hoyo takes a fricking year before they rerun them and by that time I have so much shit saved up that I don't need to spend anything.
They better fricking speed up with the releases/reruns and alt costumes if they want my money.
He literally the same person in the promotional trailer from three years ago.
Last time I rolled for a cute girl she was the weakest character in the game. I've learned my mistake. Never again.
How do they know who I pay for and who not? If I buy gems during homobanner, but not use them until hagbanner, what happens to my pay statistics?
I imagine the per banner statistics that occasionally get posted here are only based on money spent during that time period so buying gems during homosexual banners marks you as a homosexual even if you spend the gems later on a hag banner.
The water censoring is so annoying. Not because I cant see the butt of the character (kinda stupid when it can be seen everywhere else r when aiming) but because the blur is so big it erases 1/3 of the char model
You know I just got to the part where you learn that Lynette pleased rich old men as a child and thought it was pretty dark and then I saw OP and remembered about Collei, so yeah. There's that.
Blessed catgirl looking after the elderly.
Collei was just treated to aggressive headpats, nothing more.
Where the frick am I?
Book room. Grab your free chests. You'll get a key that leads to more Primos and some weird ass lore.
You'll also be back here after finishing Ann's quest.
why is it verifying file integrity every time i start the game?
If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.
🙂
Ugh...Mihoyo?
