im south east Asian, and grew up on dragon dancing as a kid and its been a few years since Ive seen a performance. Ive always love everything ab dragon dancing, but the music was always something else, and hearing the resemblance in genshin was mesmerizing
Gaming got the best ending he could ever hope for: He got to perform his passion to all of Liyue and finally got his father to acknowledge and respect him.
This was so cool! One of the longest cutscenes I think I've seen yet in Genshin. And this Lantern Rite's story has been so damn sweet and wholesome! You have mommy Xianyun, daddy Zhongli, and now Gaming and his father.
I'm not too familiar with it, but I saw a video of Marco Meatball analyzing the cutscene, and I remember he said he could hear the pattern still a bit, although it's probably much more discreet than in previous years. Could also be a thing to symbolize renewal, like the rise in popularity of wushou dance in Liyue, people moving forward and adopting new things.
ts was so beautiful i cried literally like this was my first lantern rite cause i kept missing the other ones. definitely a moment i wont forget in this game
I’m Japanese but I love Chinese culture and the awesome Chinese friends I’ve met here before COVID hit and suddenly they were all gone… Chinese people are much more easygoing, funny and don’t take things as seriously as us Japanese do. At least in my experience and I miss their presence a lot. I play Genshin everyday because of my love for Chinese culture and before I started playing seriously, I’ve never experienced a Lantern Rite event. It was surprising to me that although our cultures are different, Gaming’s story resonates a lot with just being an East Asian child in general. At first I just wanted to pull for Cloud Retainer because I love Anemo and support characters and thought maybe she could give my Xiao a little boost :’) I thought that getting at least some Gamings would be nice because his design looked great and he really looks like my husband if he was a kid, so I picked him out of the free characters and lucked out and got his C6 and Xianyun C1. I thought I would hate this event because I didn’t like Cloud Retainer’s first uhh… Appearances in the questlines? Her personality was very different… I feel like they made her a lot more likeable now and it’s always great to see Shenhe being treated well and getting more screen time. Now Xianyun may have taken the spot of my beloved Yae as my comfort character. Both me and my husband cried because of Gaming’s story. I only ever cried for this game when Focalors got executed, even though I am very invested in the story. It was very beautiful. Gaming has gotten the best treatment as a 4 star in my opinion, and I’m fine with that. Although it may hurt my husband’s pride as he loves Dilluc, I much prefer Gaming and am happy to finally have a Pyro claymore character that’s not him lol. I just can’t help but be a little bothered by the disparity between older characters and the new ones in terms of design improvement. It is to be expected but, God, Xianyun and Gaming look so much better than my lovely older favorites, whenever I switch from them to older characters, it feels so unfair lol I’ll even say that Gaming looks more like a 5 star than Dilluc and it’s not my personal vendetta against hearing him constantly when playing coop with my husband but I really feel like Dilluc got the worst possible treatment from Hoyo… He looks like he was the first ever designed character in the game, and that was Ayaka… Why make his face so… simple… and his 5 star shop skin doesn’t help him in that at all… I even joke that Clorinde got the Dilluc treatment because she also looks a bit underwhelming in comparison to characters like Neuvi and Navia… Which is sad because I like Clorinde a lot :’) I hope Hoyo can revamp their older characters in an update, but knowing them, I am aware it’s just wishful thinking. But even Zhongli feels a bit underwhelming nowadays… Pls justice for the older characters!
Fun fact: Luminescent dyes are the reason why his dress and Suanni mask glows in his idle animation and the cut scene Edit: Also Gaming's dance on water (look at his footsteps) and the lantern getting stacked upon each other and being sturdy enough, for allowing Gaming to stand upon them is also due to Xianyun
@@sallyxu6121well certainly he used luminescent dyes, u can see the the suanni kite glowing in the end of the cut scene, but i believe he can control dye to glow at will infusing his pyroenergy 🤔🤔 And dancing on water was due to Xianyun
I haven't played much in the past two years, but for some reason I've been getting back into it, and while I was very late to start this event, I'm so glad I did! Gaming is a great character, and I've loved his story! Getting to spend time with Ganyu, Shenhe, and Xianyun was a treat too, all three of them look drop-dead GORGEOUS! Seeing Zhongli so quick on the uptake was cool as heck too, and Xiao being much friendlier than I remember really tells me I've missed quite a bit. But holy crap, I loved this scene so much. Just breathtaking. Beautiful music, beautiful girls, and a really badass wushou dance! So glad I came back and got to witness this, and I just had to come here to rewatch it right after and show my brother!
F, the watermark ruined it, i just recorded the cinematic but with a litle freeze part because i accidentally tabbed out the game, i want the whole cinematic without watermark 1080p 60fps preferably in spanish but its fine in english, well, preferably without text really, but i completed it on my 2 accs, recorded on 1 and not on the second, and after that i checked it and F a few sec are missing :C
Gaming is such a cool character, should I re download the game, (currently only playing HSR), but I used to play genshin before and stopped when HSR released then dropped genshin only to come back during Neuvilette banner (I got him though) but I honestly dont know how to build genshin characters, as if building HSR characters burnt me out already, genshin feels so huge though
I missed out on the first two Lantern Rites and between this and last year’s (as much as I love Hu Tao in all her weirdness), this year was a thousand times better.
my laggy ah laptop wouldn't even play the audio without stuttering like 1000 times ever 5 seconds let alone play the vid, shit just froze in a place like wtf man....
Is it even explained how he can just magically stand/dance on water? Is the giant statue on the boat supposed to be Xiao since he isn't at the festival?
Nah but with so many adepti nearby it must be their doing. Either Cloud Retainer, Mountain Shaper or Moon Carver made it happen. Maybe all 3 of them. Adeptal energy does wonders. There's a particular pond in Chenyu Vale that lets you walk on water just like that. And the Giant Statue depicts a Monkey Yaksha. It's not Xiao but one of his old comrades iirc. Ah what's his name again... Menogias. He was mentioned on few occasions during the story by Cloud Retainer.

My laggy ahh computer only played the audio and missed the whole fucking cutscene
It wasn't your computer. I got to watch the cutscene three whole times to almost-completion because I disconnected!
im south east Asian, and grew up on dragon dancing as a kid and its been a few years since Ive seen a performance. Ive always love everything ab dragon dancing, but the music was always something else, and hearing the resemblance in genshin was mesmerizing
My laggy ahh phone won't show this cutscene in its full glory
Same but mine only lagges till 0:26 😅
Good thing mine didn't, and watched it smooth and straight
DUDE SAME
mine won't show the video but will show the voice lines and them talking 😭
console is better
Gaming's story has to be one of the best
FR 😔💕
Gaming got the best ending he could ever hope for: He got to perform his passion to all of Liyue and finally got his father to acknowledge and respect him.
And i love how it similars to a real life asian family situation too🥺
I'm Asian and I agree with you lol
Its pretty basic but still cool fr, and insane cutscene ong
who else can feel the goosebumps when see gaming performance... really great story...🎉
Yes it is, and I did get goosebumps!
This was so cool! One of the longest cutscenes I think I've seen yet in Genshin. And this Lantern Rite's story has been so damn sweet and wholesome! You have mommy Xianyun, daddy Zhongli, and now Gaming and his father.
The song is fucking amazing oh my god
Without the iconic soundtrack, Lantern Rite feels a bit different

Thank you very much for this cut scene. I have a very laggy PC :D
You're welcome!
1:20 Bro feel like a MC now
i mean he is in a another game ;) (VA at least)
He's the mc in this cutscene ✨
gaming is quite literally the most relatable character to me and my life. He easily has become one of if not my favorite characters in the game
I need them to release his Lion Dance song ITS SO GOOD RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Fun fact: Luminescent dyes are the reason why his dress and Suanni mask glows in his idle animation and the cut scene
Edit: Also Gaming's dance on water (look at his footsteps) and the lantern getting stacked upon each other and being sturdy enough, for allowing Gaming to stand upon them is also due to Xianyun
Hmmm here I thought he infused it with his pyro energy somehow..
I mean hey, the dude walks on water
@@sallyxu6121 It because of xianyun look closely to his feet it something windy thingy
@@sallyxu6121well certainly he used luminescent dyes, u can see the the suanni kite glowing in the end of the cut scene, but i believe he can control dye to glow at will infusing his pyroenergy 🤔🤔
And dancing on water was due to Xianyun
Nadia did apper in the cutscene, but she wasn't with Vlad this time =(
nadia is making a kite with vlad :)
in very cute dialogue
@@alisonrodrigues5956where to find them?
I have to say this has been my favorite latern rite so far, hell of a lot better compared to last year. Hu Tao's rap kinda killed it for me Lol.
They HAVE to release the song, its too gorgeous
genshin know how to cut onions in the room
For me that was the most beautiful Lantern Rite so far
This scene gave me chills bro
fuk. i realy love this OST
I legitimately look forward to these cut scenes every year. I love the lantern rite festival 🙂
Such an excellent Lantern Rite quest.
This lantern rite doesn't have its signature soundtrack tho
3:32 hu tao
Thank you very much
She’s so cute 😭
I loved this my favorite lantern rite so far I hope they'll release the audio ❤️❤️❤️
I was shivering during the cutscence
The dance gave me chills
Love it
I love how genshin characters can have their professions but also be so much more at the same time, I hope we get more ga Ming in the future
0:04 chongyun and his bf spotted along with third wheel xiangling

There’s one without watermark in Genshin’s official yt.
This song gives me Avatar the Last Airbender vibes
1:20: Wow! Even if is stylised in a Studio Ghibli style... 😃😃😄😄
Came to rewatch this after finishing Lingyang's story. This is so much better.
I love Gaming so damn much!
i love the part where the wind goes away and Xianyun is like i got this
DRAGONDANCE!
Someone explain how he’s walking on water
Gaming is such a cool character, should I re download the game, (currently only playing HSR), but I used to play genshin before and stopped when HSR released then dropped genshin only to come back during Neuvilette banner (I got him though) but I honestly dont know how to build genshin characters, as if building HSR characters burnt me out already, genshin feels so huge though

Is it even explained how he can just magically stand/dance on water? Is the giant statue on the boat supposed to be Xiao since he isn't at the festival?
