People who came "late" will never understand the tension and worry players felt after 4.2 trailer until it's release, nor the beautiful sadness of it's AQ once it came out. It really was a "you had to be there" moment.
Fontaine's archon quest, for me, was absolute cinema. So many unexpected twists and turns, and the trailers for it were done so well that you had no idea what was actually going on. Just magnificent work throughout on all levels. Also regarding the updates: Every version is six weeks. Every 3 weeks, we get two new limited character banners. 5.2 is going to be released in roughly 3 weeks.
Nah Fontaine was not magnificent throughout, Act 3 and 4 were boring as hell, it just breaks the flow that was built by Act 1 and 2. Act 5 was peak of Genshin but if I count all the acts together and compare, Sumeru might be slightly higher than Fontaine.
re:harbingers, you’ve met childe/tartaglia(11th) and signora(8th.) others in these trailers include wanderer/scaramouche(6), arlecchino(4), dottore(2) and capitano(1)-you can tell by the italian names. they’re kind of like genshin’s akatsuki!
@@anipos1264 i feel like it’s the easiest way to explain “group of powerful people with their own agendas ostensibly working together to collect each nation’s super weapon so they can [fontaine spoilers] and overturn the old world order but most of them don’t really care about the mission and also they all wear snazzy cloaks and squabble with each other” to an anime fan 😂
I really like how you analyse each trailer and spend your time on each one, rewatching them too it’s really refreshing to see and it shows genuine interest!
Something you might not know but it may resolve some Questions: The Archons(Gods) have multiple Names, Venti(Barbatos) , Zhongli(Rex Lapis), Nahida(Lesser Lord Kusanali), Furina(Focalors). This fits for the Fatui too like Childe(Tartaglia)
I like that you actually rewind and paying attention, even having discussions. A lot people just watch them for the views, saying "wow" when something epic happened and thats all
1:43:40 the whiplash with some of the the trailers make me laugh with the new mechanics preview at the end, but this one especially (for those who watch without context) bc literally a patch ago they were sentencing our girl to death and here she is the director of a movie 🤣🤣🤣
2:05:53 she’s one of the few very morally grey characters. Someone you can’t put in a box. But she is a great character and is very complex, I really love her. Also she’s a very unique Fatui harbinger, but that’s all I’ll say.
I agree! It's refreshing to see him pause, analyze what the characters are saying, and even call back to previous videos he watched such as remembering Alhaitham and his connection to the Akademiya.
1:18:30 yes, Klee has a mom, her name is Alice and she is so chaotic to the point that she is in Inazuma's watchlist lmao. Inazuma pretty much has a protocol prepared incase she enters the nation. They can't stop her but they'll have someone watch over her 24/7.
@@Vnemes1sV Alice in the Mondstadt volume was so "on sight" towards the Hilichurls it's crazy. If she treated normal humans the way she treated Hilichurls she and Dottore would make great partners
@@strawcoldThe scariest thing is that she most likely knows about the nature of the Hilichurls, but she still treats them that way. it would be strange if she doesn't know about it, because she is friend with one of the Khaenri'ah Sinners, she is very old (older than all the members of hexenzirkel, some of whom are confirmed to be several thousand years old) and she been in Teyvat since the days of Enkononya.
I may have missed some, but I looked through the official Genshin TH-cam channel to try and find all the shorts and teasers since you asked about them. There are some animated cutscenes on there too but I didn't include them here (aside from a few which were part of limited time events that can't be experienced otherwise anyway) since they're best experienced in game with story context. Teyvat Chapter Storyline Preview: Travail Endless Suffering Echoes of the Heart (In game cutscene, but from a limited event) Tsubaki in Thawing Snow A Winter Night's Lazzo Lantern Rite Promotional Video: Dream Upon a Lantern Overture Teaser: The Final Feast Tidings of an Auspicious Beast Vibrant Harriers Aloft in Spring Breeze (Another limited in game cutscene from this year's Lantern Rite) The Song Burning in the Embers Arataki & Flying Lavender Melon's Rockin' for Life Duet (Another limited in game cutscene. Not story or lore related or anything but it's still really great) Ignition Teaser: A Name Forged in Flames The Road Not Taken Also just appending this here, version 3.0's trailer might be my favorite they've ever put out. Gives me chills every time I watch it from the beginning til the end.
Finally finished watching the whole thing, lol. If you’re planning on redoing the archon quests for Mondstadt, Liyue and Inazuma, then I’d HIGHLY recommend not to skim over the details because these three nations introduce some lore bits that will become integral to understanding the story later, trust!! In case you were wondering, Mondstadt is the Nation of Anemo (wind) Liyue is the Nation of Geo (earth) Inazuma is the Nation of Electro (electricity) Sumeru is the Nation of Dendro (plants) Fontaine is the Nation of Hydro (water) Natlan is the Nation of Pyro (fire), and Snezhnaya is the Nation of Cryo (ice) Also, just to clarify, Sumeru takes a lot of real-world inspiration from South-Asiaand the Middle East! The cultures are especially apparent through the music, so if you really enjoyed the music, I recommend sitting down later down your journey and listening to the free online concerts Genshin Impact releases on their main TH-cam channel! It gives us an in-depth and behind the scenes experience of how much effort and hard work goes into the music of this game, along with some AWESOME renditions of existing music in the game! However, some concerts do contain some story spoilers, so I do recommend checking in regularly with the comments to know when you’re far enough in the story to go ahead and watch the concert videos, if you do plan on watching them! Anyways, loved this reaction video as well, can’t wait to see you play through the stories, especially Sumeru and Fontaine. Natlan is still in its early stages and it’s hard to rank, but it’s been GREAT so far! Excited for when you start the game!
Gotchu, I'm gonna try making the first 3 regions into 1-2 videos each, but idk if I'll be able to. Depends how long they are with Archon Quests and if I do every side/world quest. I'll consider reacting to the concerts once I'm farther into the story like you mentioned.
It's crazy watching these trailers again like where did time go it feels like just yesterday lol Many of these big events were fun and full of character exposition I wish I could experience them again 🥺 Klee's mom is named Alice btw but we haven't actually met her yet! She actually voices Wanderer's Collected Miscellany. I cant help but giggle at your reactions knowing what happens Sumeru & Fontaine were definitely amazing and Natlan looks promising! I LOVE the exploration and the music If you want to see more about the characters each one has a Teaser and a Collected Miscellany. The CM also shows you how their gameplay works. The shorts are worth watching too btw but you can take your time with those. There's one about Arlecchino that ties in with the 4.6 trailer it's really good!
About your Meta Question: Yes, there is actually a Meta that most people seem to follow with currently the 3 strongest Main DPS Characters being Neuvillette, Arlecchino and Alhaitham. (Unless I missed something with the release of Mualani and Kinich). Every Character can be played and with enough time investment into them, they can clear the current Endgame Content aswell. (Abyss & Theater)
I think Alhaitham was dethroned, after Neuvillette and Arlecchino the strongest DPS at the moment are Mualani, Kinich, Navia in an average rotation a Mualani and a Kinich can do more than 500k damage and Navia with Full stacks can also reach that with 2 shots + Clorinde surpasses Alhaitham's DPR
Btw, if you want to kniw their gameplay and skills, you should watch the Collected Miscellany of everyone. Start with characters you like the most or curious on how they play cuz its 5 mins long each.
28:24 Sumeru is based off of a historical region under collective Islamic rule called Dar al Islam. Dar al Islam was a vast region that stretched from most of Northern India, connecting with China. This region also included the Middle East and most of North Africa. It was so vast that it stretched all the way to Europe and included Spain which was called Al Andalus at the time. As it may be obvious, it would be extremely difficult to control such a large region under one ruler/government. That's why it was helpful that Dar al Islam was actually more akin to a coalition of many different governments working together.
1:11:54 Raiden Shogun is said to be the embodiment of Lightning, and Charlotte made a bold comment there about her. That's why she's worried getting struck by lightning.
*pauses when seeing Nahida cry* "Who made her cry?! You're going 6 ft under!" All of us reacted like that... please remember your reaction here when you find out the context. I can't wait to see your reaction to why Nahida actually cries and relate to your reaction here
OH if you wanna pull for Kinich you'll wanna do it before next Tuesday unless you wanna wait for a rerun. He's definitely fun to play I'm hoping to also get Xilonen she looks really cool too! 5.1 starts next week
Just so you know those invite the four star character events that are at the end of some of those versions are actually the game giving out free 4 stars
26:05 genshin is a story game at heart, and story games naturally expect people to sit down and read through the story. Usually the people who say it has yapping are people who don't do that
Agreed. Though I do think if Star Rail is a good comparison, they could pace the story better. Some parts can be written with shorter dialogue while having the same impact or development.
I love ur reactions! You should check out character TEASERS next, they give you more insight about who the characters really are, unlike the character trailers/demos!
It depends. Some events/content you can use whatever, but certain comps might be easier due to bonuses to certain damage types/reactions/enemy composition. Others have restrictions on using specific characters or only allow certain types of characters. Just using the two End-Game modes as an Example. Spiral Abyss you can in theory use whatever you want as long as it can finish content, though getting full rewards for doing so may be more difficult if you aren't playing around the design of the encounters. Imaginarium Theater requires a ton of characters to use and only certain elements are allowed (there's 6 characters you have to use but are provided trial version in case you don't have them or they don't meet the level/build requirements for the mode) (except for a handful of special guest characters which ignore that limitation but you actually need the special characters to be able to use them). However your roster, aside for the first 6, is randomized and you can only use a character twice for the whole mode, unless you get an event card that restores their usage, so you have to strategize your character usage to make sure you have teams strong enough to finish the boss encounters of each stage, while balancing getting character/event cards vs buff cards. Events are similar. But will usually provide a few trial characters if they expect you to use certain characters for the event fights (though this is sometimes optional).
Still havent watvhed this yet but i love how he actually pays attention and makes theories and predictions insyead of watching a masterpoece and saying "yeah that was pretty cool"
great video as always, man, your reactions are v rewarding also wanna note that all the archons have their official god name (like focalors is for furina) and their usual Name name (furina in this case, nahida, venti, etc), as well as titles that their people gave them (like with nahida it's lesser lord kusanali), so yeah, they are referred to in many many ways and it's easy to get confused just watching the trailers that tease the lore :)
I mean, hsr and genshin are already in the same multiverse so it's not ENTEIRELY impossible to see them cross eventually ;) They even got the traveler's glider on herta space station
The gnosis is that chess piece looking thing that Mavuika is holding in the trailer. Your number one girl is the Pyro Archon Mavuika. The gnosis is an artifact that contains godly power and elemental controlling power. Each archon is given one upon gaining godhood
You definitely saw Collei's demo. The only characters without demos are ones that were already in the game before it released. Characters like Jean, Diluc, Ningguang, Beidou, etc. Basically the earliest Mondstadt and Liyue characters. 36:59 "You're going 6ft under. Whoever made her cry" I am at a loss for words... 😟😢😭 Ain't no way this dude just confused Alhaitham with Dottore 😂 I can understand if it's Baizhu and Pantalone, because they looks so similar, but Alhaitham and Dottore??? 😂😂😂 He was doing so well pronouncing Neuvillette's (New-veh-let) name the first time, but slowly got worse with Noovilitey ☠️ Kinich is only on banner for a few more days btw, so if you want him, you gotta start now. Natlan is freaking great! I love the characters already. They are cool but also super friendly, even Kinich looking emo as he is is actually a sweetheart~ Exploration and story is fire as well!
My pronunciation of words has always been terrible 😂 And yea... Idk how I mixed up Alhaitham with that other dude 😂 I'll be playing and recording this weekend a lot so hopefully I can wish for Kinich and get him before his banner ends 🙏🏾
46:00 Jerada this entire video xD No but jokes aside, your analysis of these trailers are hilarious man, love when people catch details when they barely started the game, especially Sumeru? AAAh even though I have listened to the full Inazuma OST more than I can count, Sumeru music is simply heartwarming. Wether it's because the Arab tones speak to my soul, or that the soothing Indian instruments lull me to sleep, Sumeru really is precious to me, not to mention the amazing story arc, the INSANE Scara boss battle OST that lives rent free in my brain, AND THE REGION HELLO?? I stumbled on Sumeru halfway through Liyue's Archon quest after several hours of navigating the void that was my map, and have been in love with it ever since! :D As of lately, Fontaine's story had my jaw on the floor with its twists and turns. 1:34:54 this entire trailer? literal _chills_ 2:22:25 Hat Guy really said "Heck no I ain't going to be part of your group picture" xD
@@sudiptaday7875but she is god of war, she is super strong, maybe strongest archon, but maybe her stamina is not infinite like other archon( like raiden has been fighting for 500 years straight)
@@quan004a yeah that's precisely why she ain't the strongest she doesn't have much stamina also didn't show any proof she is stronger than raiden currently raiden can literally cut space itself and she cut an island in half and she never used the gnosis and the cryo archon is probably stronger than both cuz she is the last and has been hyped up since launch there's still a pew archon quest left so let's see if she's stronger or not
Strongest playable characters damage-wise right now would probably be 1. Neuvillette, 2. Arlecchino and 3. Alhaitham. If any of the new characters have threatened Alhaitham’s place in that hierarchy, the community has not reached a consensus on that yet at least and it’s too early to tell.
I think Alhaitham was dethroned, after Neuvillette and Arlecchino the strongest DPS at the moment are Mualani, Kinich, Navia in an average rotation a Mualani and a Kinich can do more than 500k damage and Navia with Full stacks can also reach that with 2 shots + Clorinde surpasses Alhaitham's DPR
@@Keiki-kun That may be true, but like I said in my comment, I’d give it a bit more time to be sure. Endgame content has just been catered to those two as well.
@@hibernatingbear74 I usually test characters with local legends, you can do rotations, test teams, whether the character prefers standard equipment or benefits from for example a cup of atk or hp instead of elemental damage It's much more reliable and non bias than a run in the abyss
Archon have more than one name Venti (Barbatos) Zhonhli (rex lapis, morax) Raiden shogan(Ei, baal) Nahida (lesser lord kusanali,buer) Furina "(focalors)"
Kusanali's identity will be revealed later on ^^. Don't wanna spoil you on how the story and characters work. Either way, love that you're going back to check details in the trailers! Most new players or reactors don't really go back on them as they prefer to just watch them in one sitting. I like your style of figuring out what's going on! The trailers do contain some parts of the story, but nothing will beat actually playing through it with the context and stuff, so honestly, just feel free to talk about the trailers a lot! It's fun doing your own crafting of the story haha. Sumeru's also my favorite region and its story and characters just hit different from the other regions! Welcome to the Nahida protection squad as well! Edit 1: All characters are usable in the game (of course if you have them)! The elemental gameplay makes it so that there's so many attack team combos to use! There ARE meta characters but that's mostly for the endgame content (think HSR's Forgotten Hall and that kind of content).
I appreciate avoiding the spoiler. And I'm happy that so many of you enjoy watching me pause and go back to analyze. I enjoy sitting through and just watching as well, but once I'm intrigued I start rewatching. I'll be playing it quite soon so I can at least try wishing for Kinich. And I can't wait to traverse Sumeru and protect Nahida 😤😂
Just in case you mispronounced the names: Nilou is pronounced “Knee-Loou” Layla is pronounced “Layla*” Lyney is pronounced “Liinee” Wriothesly is pronounced “Riseths-ley” Neuvillette is pronounced “Nerv-illette” not Neuvillettee
Well you should know The Seven Archon has a God Names & Human Names, - Anemo Archon is Barbatos aka Venti (God of Freedom) - Geo Archon is Morax/Rex Lapis aka Zhongli (God of Contract) - Electro Archon is Beelzebul aka Raiden Ei (God of Eternity) - Dendro Archon is Buer aka Nahida (God of Wisdom) - Hydro Archon is Focalor aka Furina (God of Justice) - Pyro Archon is Murata aka Mavuika (God of War) - Cryo Archon is Tsaritsa aka ...... (God of Love) And some of the archon has already been replaced by their next legacy Only Barbatos & Morax that remains the first Generation of archons that never been replaced with
Arlecchino (pyro), now Mavuika (pyro), I think I sense a pattern for you right now 😂 Love your reactions by the way, you notice every details and I love it, really shows how invested you are, its cool 😊
Yeah i remember most of the players says that Sumeru has the most great storyline and wonders if the Fontaine can top the story and man they really did and much more greater than the Sumeru and hoping that this year Natlan will have a great storyline too
i'm glad you're enjoying the first trailer to sumeru. back then this trailer was generating a looooot of hype. i think i said it in a comment before that most people i know irl that played genshin from day 1 stopped after inazuma for myriad of reasons. maybe it's the mobs, stupidly annoying challenges or oculi. but those people made a come back when this trailer dropped. Sumeru is still my favorite region in terms of music and lore (world quests). it's also the last region Yu Peng Chen direct and compose majority of Genshin music. which is why Fontaine's music wasn't as "memorable" for me. it's still good music but it's a bit "generic". Hoyo-Mix does make a come back with Natlan. I can't wait to listen more from the new composers bcs even as of now Natlan has a lot of bangers already. I cannot wait until you discover Port Ormos in Sumeru. it's still the only place in all of Teyvat that made me stopped dead on my tracks and just stand there until the music loop. a lot of people and content creators reacted the same way. it's just so so good. nothing in HSR made me reacted that way.
Fontaine is great bcs of the Archon Quest, Hoyo writing team basically perfected their craft in this region. in terms lore (world quest) there is something big happening there too but personally for me it's too complicated to digest. regarding the dragons. i assume you won't dig too deep about Genshin lore and do all the world quests so i'll give you a general info about them: Teyvat was once a world ruled by dragons. it has Seven Sovereigns elemental dragons of which then defeated by someone called "Primordial One". this primordial one didn't defeat the dragons alone, they created Four Shining Shades for this "war". after that Primordial One and the Shining Shades regain control of all Teyvat, stole the power from Seven Sovereigns which then turned into Seven Divine Thrones. they chose seven Gods from Teyvat (after an event called Archon War) to place upon those thrones and called these "new rulers" as "Archons". These Archons also gifted an item called Gnosis. Gnosis looks like a chess piece in the game. it's a power-up item for these Gods.
I highly doubt natlan will be in any other language until 5.4 or something. These quest are pre recorded... WELL in advance. It's just the trailers being affected. 5.1 was fully voiced in en even though kinich trailer was in jp. There's an example with cyno's va doing another job in star rail as jingyuan who was basically voicing them both at the same time even though cyno was months earlier than jingyuan, or tighnari's old va
I think you misunderstanding something, those events from trailers are gone. only windblume, lantern rite are cyclical. other sometimes come back in slightly different form. Ps: also your predictions are wrong. but it's ok trailers are made this way so you can't do it, especially without playing earlier acts. Ps:: Natlan is on good way to exceed fontaine. but not yet.
You can swin and dive in Fontaine, and ONLY in Fontaine, which is why I like that place more than the rest. Ps. I think the best way to react to these types of videos, are to watch them to the end, so you can give your real reaction, and then go back to the beginning and watch it again, where you can pick it apart. By doing it this way, the people can see your honest reaction, and you can go deeper with the videos, without breaking the flow of the video, with a ton of pauses. Pps. Do you need help making a list for the teasers?
Why do you keep calling robots "golems"? A golem is NOT a machine - it is a solid piece of material (clay, stone, metal) brought to life by magic. A machine is NOT a golem, it is a machine.

@@st4r.ace872 It was insanely stupid for Hoyo to introduce that feature. It like directly contradicts the themes of the story (where Mavuika says that every journey through every nation prior to Natlan was the most important part of the journey) which shows a real disconnect between the writers and the higher up devs. If you care about the story, you should not skip straight to Natlan.
@@bookswithike3256 I know but people mainly do it js for the primos, i’m glad i’ve been caught up even tho it’s best u don’t skip it’s always going to be up to personal preference
I think the animations are better watched after you know the characters and stuff. A lot of spoliers too. I see some ppl reacting too all the spoilers before the story, its weird haha And Natlan is peak Genshin, best area since 1.0
1:36:52 Neuvillet is Hydro dragon, who is stronger than hydro archont but he can't use his full power when hydro archon is alive. He can save and forgive all fontainians just if Furina(Focalors)die (sorry for my english and hello fron Ukraine, like your reaction videos)
And dude, calm down with your "dragons" thing. Dragons are the original rulers of the world, pure magical beings, living embodiments of the elements, in other words: Elemental Gods. So stop calling every lizard and dinosaur a "dragon"!
Every lizard and dinosaur is a descendant of dragons so it isn't really that wrong, dragons aren't elemental gods they're just a species and SOME of them were elemental gods, the Sovereigns, but there are non-Sovereign dragons too.
@@alexgainsborough4921 search the wiki for Saurians and the very first sentence calls them dragons. Dragons are a species and some of them are special but not all of them, they were the major race before the first descender so it wouldnt make sense if all of them were super special. Also, Neuvillette himself calls Natlan a nation of dragon. If there's anyone who knows what a dragon is, its him.
@@aduckonaplane3816 so what? What does that have to do with it? And by the way, the Teyvat dragons aren't reptiles - they're based on deep-sea creatures.
@@alexgainsborough4921 it has everything to do with it because you criticized the dude for calling a saurian a dragon, which it, in fact, is. Also, I doubt all of them are inspired by deep-sea life. Neuvillette probably is as a god of the sea, but Apep resembles a normal serpent (reptile), Azdaha definetly doesn't look deep sea, Xiuhcoatl, the likely Pyro Sovereign, resembles.. maybe a crocodile or something in his murals, and his name is inspired by a serpent. Either way, definetly not deep sea, and Dvalin is a pretty normal depiction of a dragon but with more wings.

Also, just to clarify, Sumeru takes a lot of real-world inspiration from South-Asiaand the Middle East! The cultures are especially apparent through the music, so if you really enjoyed the music, I recommend sitting down later down your journey and listening to the free online concerts Genshin Impact releases on their main TH-cam channel! It gives us an in-depth and behind the scenes experience of how much effort and hard work goes into the music of this game, along with some AWESOME renditions of existing music in the game! However, some concerts do contain some story spoilers, so I do recommend checking in regularly with the comments to know when you’re far enough in the story to go ahead and watch the concert videos, if you do plan on watching them!
Anyways, loved this reaction video as well, can’t wait to see you play through the stories, especially Sumeru and Fontaine. Natlan is still in its early stages and it’s hard to rank, but it’s been GREAT so far! Excited for when you start the game!
Gotchu, I'm gonna try making the first 3 regions into 1-2 videos each, but idk if I'll be able to. Depends how long they are with Archon Quests and if I do every side/world quest. I'll consider reacting to the concerts once I'm farther into the story like you mentioned.
@@ItsJerada Great! remember not to stress too much and enjoy the process! Genuinely hope you enjoy the game :)
It's crazy watching these trailers again like where did time go it feels like just yesterday lol Many of these big events were fun and full of character exposition I wish I could experience them again 🥺
Klee's mom is named Alice btw but we haven't actually met her yet! She actually voices Wanderer's Collected Miscellany. I cant help but giggle at your reactions knowing what happens Sumeru & Fontaine were definitely amazing and Natlan looks promising! I LOVE the exploration and the music
If you want to see more about the characters each one has a Teaser and a Collected Miscellany. The CM also shows you how their gameplay works. The shorts are worth watching too btw but you can take your time with those. There's one about Arlecchino that ties in with the 4.6 trailer it's really good!
About your Meta Question: Yes, there is actually a Meta that most people seem to follow with currently the 3 strongest Main DPS Characters being Neuvillette, Arlecchino and Alhaitham. (Unless I missed something with the release of Mualani and Kinich).
Every Character can be played and with enough time investment into them, they can clear the current Endgame Content aswell. (Abyss & Theater)
I think Alhaitham was dethroned, after Neuvillette and Arlecchino the strongest DPS at the moment are Mualani, Kinich, Navia
in an average rotation a Mualani and a Kinich can do more than 500k damage and Navia with Full stacks can also reach that with 2 shots
+ Clorinde surpasses Alhaitham's DPR
Btw, if you want to kniw their gameplay and skills, you should watch the Collected Miscellany of everyone. Start with characters you like the most or curious on how they play cuz its 5 mins long each.
28:24 Sumeru is based off of a historical region under collective Islamic rule called Dar al Islam.
Dar al Islam was a vast region that stretched from most of Northern India, connecting with China. This region also included the Middle East and most of North Africa. It was so vast that it stretched all the way to Europe and included Spain which was called Al Andalus at the time. As it may be obvious, it would be extremely difficult to control such a large region under one ruler/government. That's why it was helpful that Dar al Islam was actually more akin to a coalition of many different governments working together.
1:11:54 Raiden Shogun is said to be the embodiment of Lightning, and Charlotte made a bold comment there about her. That's why she's worried getting struck by lightning.
*pauses when seeing Nahida cry*
"Who made her cry?! You're going 6 ft under!"
All of us reacted like that... please remember your reaction here when you find out the context. I can't wait to see your reaction to why Nahida actually cries and relate to your reaction here
"We have a new contender for the best girl"
It's Sucrose.
Fontaines masquerade of the guilty will be forever my favourite archon quest of all time. Furina ❤❤❤
OH if you wanna pull for Kinich you'll wanna do it before next Tuesday unless you wanna wait for a rerun. He's definitely fun to play I'm hoping to also get Xilonen she looks really cool too! 5.1 starts next week
Just so you know those invite the four star character events that are at the end of some of those versions are actually the game giving out free 4 stars
Who made her cry? The Universe did.
You mean Azar.
@@HashiNuke you mean [redacted]
26:05 genshin is a story game at heart, and story games naturally expect people to sit down and read through the story.
Usually the people who say it has yapping are people who don't do that
Agreed. Though I do think if Star Rail is a good comparison, they could pace the story better. Some parts can be written with shorter dialogue while having the same impact or development.
I love ur reactions! You should check out character TEASERS next, they give you more insight about who the characters really are, unlike the character trailers/demos!
amazing reaction as always!
I'd love to see you react to the character teasers ♡
I'm getting emotional rewatching these fontaine trailers, like damn, hoyo really did cook
yeah probably its the best Archon quest so far, just Act 5 because other acts are boring specially the second and the third acts
Lantern Rite is the celebration of chinese new year, it's every year in genshin as well :D
It depends.
Some events/content you can use whatever, but certain comps might be easier due to bonuses to certain damage types/reactions/enemy composition.
Others have restrictions on using specific characters or only allow certain types of characters.
Just using the two End-Game modes as an Example.
Spiral Abyss you can in theory use whatever you want as long as it can finish content, though getting full rewards for doing so may be more difficult if you aren't playing around the design of the encounters.
Imaginarium Theater requires a ton of characters to use and only certain elements are allowed (there's 6 characters you have to use but are provided trial version in case you don't have them or they don't meet the level/build requirements for the mode) (except for a handful of special guest characters which ignore that limitation but you actually need the special characters to be able to use them). However your roster, aside for the first 6, is randomized and you can only use a character twice for the whole mode, unless you get an event card that restores their usage, so you have to strategize your character usage to make sure you have teams strong enough to finish the boss encounters of each stage, while balancing getting character/event cards vs buff cards.
Events are similar. But will usually provide a few trial characters if they expect you to use certain characters for the event fights (though this is sometimes optional).
37:01 "you're going 6feet under whoever made her cry". I guess who made her cry DID go 6 feet under
eyy I like your genuine interest and enthusiasm!! most people post these only for clicks and barely take anything in
I like you reactions
Stand proud you content is good
Still havent watvhed this yet but i love how he actually pays attention and makes theories and predictions insyead of watching a masterpoece and saying "yeah that was pretty cool"
Jujutsu ahh comment
yeah he paids attention and tris to understand. majority of these "reactors" are not evn familiar with what they are reacting to.
> I can’t tell if she’s evil or if she’s good.
Yeah, neither can any of us, lol
Bro is just vibin with the music lol, might as well do a genshin music reaction
great video as always, man, your reactions are v rewarding
also wanna note that all the archons have their official god name (like focalors is for furina) and their usual Name name (furina in this case, nahida, venti, etc), as well as titles that their people gave them (like with nahida it's lesser lord kusanali), so yeah, they are referred to in many many ways and it's easy to get confused just watching the trailers that tease the lore :)
Should I say
1. Whoever made her cry went six feet under for sure
OR
2. Who made her cry??
(iykyk)
aha, i knew anyone could vibing to Port Omos song 😂
Can you react to genshin live symphony? They’re all great
People often say Mavuika is basically a himeko expy
Red hair
Fire powers
Claymore
Sensei vibe
Previous era incarnation
Doomed to die
People who say she is not are delusional
@@Keiki-kunYeah.. and Spoiler Warning 👇
Even her sister's name is Hine.. suspiciously similar to the name "Himeko"
I can see it.
I mean, hsr and genshin are already in the same multiverse so it's not ENTEIRELY impossible to see them cross eventually ;) They even got the traveler's glider on herta space station
This would be crazy
Bruh that “Who made her cry?” 😂
Sumeru and Natlan are definitely my favourite nations. Story wise and the characters are fire.
40:50 Yessss the port ormos daytime theme goes so hard oml
the version 4.2 is for sure my favorite version trailer and version to play ngl i rlly hope to see u play it just to see ur reaction
Well... whoever made Nahida cry did go 6 feet under loln't
The gnosis is that chess piece looking thing that Mavuika is holding in the trailer. Your number one girl is the Pyro Archon Mavuika. The gnosis is an artifact that contains godly power and elemental controlling power. Each archon is given one upon gaining godhood
You definitely saw Collei's demo. The only characters without demos are ones that were already in the game before it released. Characters like Jean, Diluc, Ningguang, Beidou, etc. Basically the earliest Mondstadt and Liyue characters.
36:59 "You're going 6ft under. Whoever made her cry" I am at a loss for words... 😟😢😭
Ain't no way this dude just confused Alhaitham with Dottore 😂 I can understand if it's Baizhu and Pantalone, because they looks so similar, but Alhaitham and Dottore??? 😂😂😂
He was doing so well pronouncing Neuvillette's (New-veh-let) name the first time, but slowly got worse with Noovilitey ☠️
Kinich is only on banner for a few more days btw, so if you want him, you gotta start now.
Natlan is freaking great! I love the characters already. They are cool but also super friendly, even Kinich looking emo as he is is actually a sweetheart~ Exploration and story is fire as well!
My pronunciation of words has always been terrible 😂
And yea... Idk how I mixed up Alhaitham with that other dude 😂
I'll be playing and recording this weekend a lot so hopefully I can wish for Kinich and get him before his banner ends 🙏🏾
@@ItsJerada I hope you get him!
He just got so confused about Fontaine lmao its fun to see
46:00 Jerada this entire video xD
No but jokes aside, your analysis of these trailers are hilarious man, love when people catch details when they barely started the game, especially Sumeru? AAAh even though I have listened to the full Inazuma OST more than I can count, Sumeru music is simply heartwarming. Wether it's because the Arab tones speak to my soul, or that the soothing Indian instruments lull me to sleep, Sumeru really is precious to me, not to mention the amazing story arc, the INSANE Scara boss battle OST that lives rent free in my brain, AND THE REGION HELLO?? I stumbled on Sumeru halfway through Liyue's Archon quest after several hours of navigating the void that was my map, and have been in love with it ever since! :D
As of lately, Fontaine's story had my jaw on the floor with its twists and turns.
1:34:54 this entire trailer? literal _chills_
2:22:25 Hat Guy really said "Heck no I ain't going to be part of your group picture" xD
ah, yeah, the two best girls, pyro father and pyro mother.
2:29:38 The strongest archon(Mavuika) vs The strongest harbinger(Capitano)
You don't believe it she is literally a human archon
@@sudiptaday7875but she is god of war, she is super strong, maybe strongest archon, but maybe her stamina is not infinite like other archon( like raiden has been fighting for 500 years straight)
@@quan004a yeah that's precisely why she ain't the strongest she doesn't have much stamina also didn't show any proof she is stronger than raiden currently raiden can literally cut space itself and she cut an island in half and she never used the gnosis and the cryo archon is probably stronger than both cuz she is the last and has been hyped up since launch there's still a pew archon quest left so let's see if she's stronger or not
Let's not start assuming stuff before we get the full story y'all 🙃👍
where did you get that she's the strongest? it's not like she was the one to win the archon war and not ei 🤷
Strongest playable characters damage-wise right now would probably be 1. Neuvillette, 2. Arlecchino and 3. Alhaitham. If any of the new characters have threatened Alhaitham’s place in that hierarchy, the community has not reached a consensus on that yet at least and it’s too early to tell.
I think Alhaitham was dethroned, after Neuvillette and Arlecchino the strongest DPS at the moment are Mualani, Kinich, Navia
in an average rotation a Mualani and a Kinich can do more than 500k damage and Navia with Full stacks can also reach that with 2 shots
+ Clorinde surpasses Alhaitham's DPR
@@Keiki-kun That may be true, but like I said in my comment, I’d give it a bit more time to be sure. Endgame content has just been catered to those two as well.
@@hibernatingbear74 I usually test characters with local legends, you can do rotations, test teams, whether the character prefers standard equipment or benefits from for example a cup of atk or hp instead of elemental damage
It's much more reliable and non bias than a run in the abyss
yeah recommend you to play this version and u can grab dehya from free 5 star and a chance to get kinich
Archon have more than one name
Venti (Barbatos)
Zhonhli (rex lapis, morax)
Raiden shogan(Ei, baal)
Nahida (lesser lord kusanali,buer)
Furina "(focalors)"
Ei is Beelzebul, Makoto *was* Baal
Now if you don't mind some spoilers you can react to the story teasers next
I'll probably avoid those since I'll be playing soon.
Kusanali's identity will be revealed later on ^^. Don't wanna spoil you on how the story and characters work.
Either way, love that you're going back to check details in the trailers! Most new players or reactors don't really go back on them as they prefer to just watch them in one sitting. I like your style of figuring out what's going on! The trailers do contain some parts of the story, but nothing will beat actually playing through it with the context and stuff, so honestly, just feel free to talk about the trailers a lot! It's fun doing your own crafting of the story haha.
Sumeru's also my favorite region and its story and characters just hit different from the other regions! Welcome to the Nahida protection squad as well!
Edit 1:
All characters are usable in the game (of course if you have them)! The elemental gameplay makes it so that there's so many attack team combos to use! There ARE meta characters but that's mostly for the endgame content (think HSR's Forgotten Hall and that kind of content).
I appreciate avoiding the spoiler. And I'm happy that so many of you enjoy watching me pause and go back to analyze. I enjoy sitting through and just watching as well, but once I'm intrigued I start rewatching.
I'll be playing it quite soon so I can at least try wishing for Kinich. And I can't wait to traverse Sumeru and protect Nahida 😤😂
Yea Pyro Archon is Mavuika and she and Arlecchino are two coolest and best characters in game!
TH-cam HID THIS FROM ME FOR 7 HOURS GRRR
😡
Just in case you mispronounced the names:
Nilou is pronounced “Knee-Loou”
Layla is pronounced “Layla*”
Lyney is pronounced “Liinee”
Wriothesly is pronounced “Riseths-ley”
Neuvillette is pronounced “Nerv-illette” not Neuvillettee
Well you should know The Seven Archon has a God Names & Human Names,
- Anemo Archon is Barbatos aka Venti (God of Freedom)
- Geo Archon is Morax/Rex Lapis aka Zhongli (God of Contract)
- Electro Archon is Beelzebul aka Raiden Ei (God of Eternity)
- Dendro Archon is Buer aka Nahida (God of Wisdom)
- Hydro Archon is Focalor aka Furina (God of Justice)
- Pyro Archon is Murata aka Mavuika (God of War)
- Cryo Archon is Tsaritsa aka ...... (God of Love)
And some of the archon has already been replaced by their next legacy
Only Barbatos & Morax that remains the first Generation of archons that never been replaced with
Mavuika's name is not Murata but Haborym.
Arlecchino (pyro), now Mavuika (pyro), I think I sense a pattern for you right now 😂 Love your reactions by the way, you notice every details and I love it, really shows how invested you are, its cool 😊
fontaine is peak
2:30:32 wait till you realize that she is fighting Arleccino’s superior 💀
57:58 filthy outsider! from Yharnam lol
1:32:10 Didn’t expect to see myself😂
Yeah i remember most of the players says that Sumeru has the most great storyline and wonders if the Fontaine can top the story and man they really did and much more greater than the Sumeru and hoping that this year Natlan will have a great storyline too
I give you hope for Kinich if you do go for him‼️‼️
🙏🏾
I can’t wait for 5.1 to drop 😊 so that we can find out what’s what😂
nice video :))
Fontaine is pure gold.
i'm glad you're enjoying the first trailer to sumeru. back then this trailer was generating a looooot of hype. i think i said it in a comment before that most people i know irl that played genshin from day 1 stopped after inazuma for myriad of reasons. maybe it's the mobs, stupidly annoying challenges or oculi. but those people made a come back when this trailer dropped.
Sumeru is still my favorite region in terms of music and lore (world quests). it's also the last region Yu Peng Chen direct and compose majority of Genshin music. which is why Fontaine's music wasn't as "memorable" for me. it's still good music but it's a bit "generic". Hoyo-Mix does make a come back with Natlan. I can't wait to listen more from the new composers bcs even as of now Natlan has a lot of bangers already.
I cannot wait until you discover Port Ormos in Sumeru. it's still the only place in all of Teyvat that made me stopped dead on my tracks and just stand there until the music loop. a lot of people and content creators reacted the same way. it's just so so good. nothing in HSR made me reacted that way.
Fontaine is great bcs of the Archon Quest, Hoyo writing team basically perfected their craft in this region. in terms lore (world quest) there is something big happening there too but personally for me it's too complicated to digest.
regarding the dragons. i assume you won't dig too deep about Genshin lore and do all the world quests so i'll give you a general info about them:
Teyvat was once a world ruled by dragons. it has Seven Sovereigns elemental dragons of which then defeated by someone called "Primordial One". this primordial one didn't defeat the dragons alone, they created Four Shining Shades for this "war". after that Primordial One and the Shining Shades regain control of all Teyvat, stole the power from Seven Sovereigns which then turned into Seven Divine Thrones. they chose seven Gods from Teyvat (after an event called Archon War) to place upon those thrones and called these "new rulers" as "Archons". These Archons also gifted an item called Gnosis. Gnosis looks like a chess piece in the game. it's a power-up item for these Gods.
I can't wait to hear these bangers! Idk if Sumeru or Fontaine is gonna be my favorite region, but its gonna be fun to find out.
2:04:57 but the person who said that is actually stronger than father
I highly doubt natlan will be in any other language until 5.4 or something. These quest are pre recorded... WELL in advance. It's just the trailers being affected. 5.1 was fully voiced in en even though kinich trailer was in jp. There's an example with cyno's va doing another job in star rail as jingyuan who was basically voicing them both at the same time even though cyno was months earlier than jingyuan, or tighnari's old va
Let us all say in unison, WE HOPE NOT 2:53:34
the 4.2 is the best Version ever i ever play in genshin
1:40:23 is Skirk, Tartaglia Master
You'll eventually learn that Furina is best girl.
I think you misunderstanding something, those events from trailers are gone. only windblume, lantern rite are cyclical. other sometimes come back in slightly different form.
Ps: also your predictions are wrong. but it's ok trailers are made this way so you can't do it, especially without playing earlier acts.
Ps:: Natlan is on good way to exceed fontaine. but not yet.
Flaming hair? Ah yes. You should watch animated shorts from honkai impact 3rd. These games are connected
peak
You can swin and dive in Fontaine, and ONLY in Fontaine, which is why I like that place more than the rest.
Ps. I think the best way to react to these types of videos, are to watch them to the end, so you can give your real reaction, and then go back to the beginning and watch it again, where you can pick it apart. By doing it this way, the people can see your honest reaction, and you can go deeper with the videos, without breaking the flow of the video, with a ton of pauses.
Pps. Do you need help making a list for the teasers?
3 hours !!! 🌴🌊🌋
do you watch CoryXKenshin by any chance? You REALLY remind me of him, but tthats probably just me coping cuz he hasnt uploaded in more than a year
Why do you keep calling robots "golems"? A golem is NOT a machine - it is a solid piece of material (clay, stone, metal) brought to life by magic. A machine is NOT a golem, it is a machine.
Ruin golem is a term in-game for one of these robots
Robots in fantasy settings are often called golems, so it's understandable.
@@GreenHellTube this is not really the name of the robots, but rather an indication that the locals don't know what they are (their level of development doesn't allow it) and call them "golems".
My bad lol. Thank you for the correction.
It if you gonna keep playing Genshin, make sure not to spoil yourself on that story man!
"Not as good as Fontaine" while the dialogues, lore drops and the writing of the Traveler's personality still the best in Sumeru's story
Mavuika is the pyro archon and she is an expy of Himeko
all Himekos are doomed to die, if she dies too, this will be like the 16th death of a Himeko in the multiverse
enjoy the time you have with the Himeko from Star rail bro
16th!?

@@Timelineofcards yeah dude... it's hard to be a Himeko fan...
You should watch Mavuika VS Capitano next
No he absolutely should not. JERADA, if you see this, this is a cutscene from the story. It's a BIG spoiler.
@@bookswithike3256 lol im just saying it as a suggestion. he’s able to skip to the archon quest if he wanted to either way
@@st4r.ace872 It was insanely stupid for Hoyo to introduce that feature. It like directly contradicts the themes of the story (where Mavuika says that every journey through every nation prior to Natlan was the most important part of the journey) which shows a real disconnect between the writers and the higher up devs. If you care about the story, you should not skip straight to Natlan.
@@bookswithike3256 I know but people mainly do it js for the primos, i’m glad i’ve been caught up even tho it’s best u don’t skip it’s always going to be up to personal preference
I think the animations are better watched after you know the characters and stuff.
A lot of spoliers too.
I see some ppl reacting too all the spoilers before the story, its weird haha
And Natlan is peak Genshin, best area since 1.0
1:36:52 Neuvillet is Hydro dragon, who is stronger than hydro archont but he can't use his full power when hydro archon is alive. He can save and forgive all fontainians just if Furina(Focalors)die
(sorry for my english and hello fron Ukraine, like your reaction videos)
And dude, calm down with your "dragons" thing. Dragons are the original rulers of the world, pure magical beings, living embodiments of the elements, in other words: Elemental Gods. So stop calling every lizard and dinosaur a "dragon"!
Every lizard and dinosaur is a descendant of dragons so it isn't really that wrong, dragons aren't elemental gods they're just a species and SOME of them were elemental gods, the Sovereigns, but there are non-Sovereign dragons too.
@@aduckonaplane3816 not in Teyvat. The descendants or relatives of dragons are also magical creatures - such as Vishaps.
@@alexgainsborough4921 search the wiki for Saurians and the very first sentence calls them dragons. Dragons are a species and some of them are special but not all of them, they were the major race before the first descender so it wouldnt make sense if all of them were super special. Also, Neuvillette himself calls Natlan a nation of dragon. If there's anyone who knows what a dragon is, its him.
@@aduckonaplane3816 so what? What does that have to do with it? And by the way, the Teyvat dragons aren't reptiles - they're based on deep-sea creatures.
@@alexgainsborough4921 it has everything to do with it because you criticized the dude for calling a saurian a dragon, which it, in fact, is. Also, I doubt all of them are inspired by deep-sea life. Neuvillette probably is as a god of the sea, but Apep resembles a normal serpent (reptile), Azdaha definetly doesn't look deep sea, Xiuhcoatl, the likely Pyro Sovereign, resembles.. maybe a crocodile or something in his murals, and his name is inspired by a serpent. Either way, definetly not deep sea, and Dvalin is a pretty normal depiction of a dragon but with more wings.
