I feel like Edo Star would be the best option. Hoyo is clearly setting up Nanook as the main villain, but the Antimatter Legion hasn’t had much of a presence in the story yet. They were the bad guys during the HSS arc and Xianzhou arc, but HSS was the prologue and Xianzhou set up the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus as the bad guys before pulling a plot twist and revealing Lord Ravager Phantylia as the true mastermind. Alternatively, another comment here suggested the planet where Emperor Rubert’s tomb was found. I honestly really like that idea too, because it would give an opportunity to elaborate on Erudition. Personally, however, I am fully expecting Hoyo to throw us a curveball involving March’s past.
It would kinda make sense to have the next story be about March to establish a pattern where every 2nd destination you get more insight on the lore of one of the astral express members and a 5-star version of them like with Dan Heng, alternating between "upgrading" the Trailblazer and giving insight and power to another astral express member (Jarilo-VI: Trailblazer, Xhianzhou: Dan Heng, Penacony: Trailblazer, destination 4: March, destination 5: Trailblazer, etc. etc.)
They really need to set a bigger story soon. As much as I loved Penacony, it was very much in a bubble. What happened there would be of little importance outside of the planet, and only the IPC so far has a minor stake in all places we've been to. Adding more people to the express (truly adding them in the story as part of the "family"), or having a main villain would be nice.
Well, seeing the recently released stonehearts trailer, i will say the oceanic planet has the most possibilities. Pearl's design was obviously made to stand out. I don't see thrm releasing obsidian or sugilite soon, so she is the third option people seem attracted to the most
Honestly out of these edo star and melustanin seem the most likely destinations out of the 4. edo star because it could give us more info on the antimatter legion and melustanin because of the stellaron which could cause problems for the astral express (i mean a stellaron was why we went to the Luofu to begin with and that stellaron was a new one from what i remember)
@Josh-qt5zi help, I can't do this anymore, I am not made of money, I need a full filler region at this point, I am aleardy out of my way with the fact that we are getting the 6 new Xianzhou caracters(i just love so much the way most of the caracters from that region look and act), now a greek/Rome theme??? Good thing izumo exploded(I am a huge fan of the Japanese inspired caracters, I wish to have and i love every inazuma caracter) but I can't handle this anymore, I love Greek/Rome interpretation and I am sure gonna want all of the new caracters The next region better not be Greek/Rome, anything but that at this point
Keep in mind the Planar sets also are based on planets and could give hints since Penocony also became a set. So our bonus options are "Sigonia the Unclaimed Desolation", "Talia Kingdom of Banditry", "Vonwacq's Island of Birth", "Thalassa", "Salsotto the moving city", "Taikiyan the sports planet", and lastly "Pier Point home of the IPC Headquarters". A short Description of each Planet since most don't read into the planar sets: Sigonia: A sand planet home to Adventurine which is almost devoid of humans but home to Humanoid Lizard species Talia: Once beaming with life turned into a comic dumping ground of trash which led it's original inhabitants to leave while making it a home of many engineers and thieves running from Galaxy Rangers Vonwacq: A small but crowded planet filled with dense wild life and trees. Because the trees are so dense it creates a makeshift roof making the top only trees and the bottom so dark it creates a home of Fungi. The indigenous Wacqwacq (the race that lives there) only eat fruit and are living in the stone age still a former nameless (Yanming) once visited stating that the laws are really harsh. Thalassa: Is a water only planet and had Mermaid like inhabitants, not much is known other than this planet is deeply inspired by Atlantis and that the the inhabitants are apart of the Xianzhou Alliance Salsotto: Is an unfortune planet as half the year it's under the scorching hot sun and the other under the cold moon leaving it 100% inhabitable but somehow the Salsottoians made moving cities that would follow the changing equator (so where the sun and moon meet) making so they could live. Taikiyan: A sports planet that was once a IPC home and had former traces of the Intelligentsia Guild now host car racing events on a 3 dimensional plan. The other top sport being "Roboball" which seems to be like Quidditch (Harry Potter) just without the broom Pier Point: Home of the IPC and has there main headquarters "Pan-Cosmic Commercial Enterprise" nothing is known other than the Amber Lord (Qlipoth) once lived there before turning into an Aeon Which one sounds the best?
I'd say Pier Point and Talia are most likely. The former, because of all the IPC info we've been getting. The latter, because it sounds like the most realistic to design in terms of gameplay while still be unlike anything we have now. Although, if new planets are always tied to a new path, we probably won't get one till 3.0. However, March 7th is hinted to be getting a new form "soon" by the writers and devs.
i think it’s still a bit early for pier point but we’re definitely going there at some point. since every other planet seems to be an internal conflict i think we’re due for an invaded planet again
The latest Interastral Peace Broadcast episode mentions an excavation on Emperor Rubert’s remains. I personally think that that’s where we’ll be going next, as the Intelligentsia Guild and Screwllum are mentioned to be characters we’ll interact with there. It is also considered to be a Category Omega site on the Potential Disaster Index so the possibility of a Stellaron being there is high as well. The first episode of the Interastral Peace Broadcast already mentioned Penacony’s invitation to the IPC too as early as 1.0 so I think the devs are using this as a way to foreshadow future locations. Considering the fact that Screwllum is still not a playable character, as well as an unofficial confirmation from Dr. Ratio’s English voice actor that he’ll be working with the team for a year from now, and that the broadcast states that they’ll be following the story as it occurs, I have reason to believe that we’ll be exploring the Mechanical Emperor Tomb. Perhaps we’ll even get the Erudition MC there on 3.X!
If we consider the Simulated Universe DLCs as foreshadowing future content, it only adds credence to the possibility of the tomb being our next story location. After the Swarm Disaster in 1.3, we got a formal introduction with them first in Argenti’s character quest from 1.5, then Ruan Mei’s recreation of an Emanator in 1.6. Considering that we just got Gold and Gears, a whole expansion that delves on the lore of the Inorganic War, the devs could have introduced as to who Emperor Rubert was so we’d be a little more familiar with him when he gets his story moment soon.
If this is the case we might even see the stoneheart ‘Pearl’, she’s been mentioned to be interested in that topic and if it’s the IPC’s request surely they’ll send an ambassador to help out 🐸
I love the idea of an overall "glass" themed SU expansion in 2.3 or 2.4, based around the glass asteroids, Mirror Holders, and Fuli. I'd also love to see new Paths playable in SU, and was just thinking about how we've been getting several characters centered around Weakness Break (Xueyi, Ruan Mei, Harmony Trailblazer, and Boothill) and don't yet have a dedicated Break path in SU like we do for other niches of Follow Up, DoT, and Ultimate. I was hoping that it could be The Harmony, but if it was The Beauty instead I'd like that as well. Argenti is also due for a rerun soon, so he could also appear or be referenced there. I also like the idea of going to the place where the first Stellaron appeared, but I hope that would happen a lot later in the story so we can get big lore bombs about what exactly the Stellarons are, how they are sealed, and what the possible effects of us literally running around with one inside of us could be (as well as either confirming or debunking whether they're related to Nanook or not)
I honestly think that an IPC related location will be the most likely next destination. We've heard so much about pier point and have been getting to know more about the IPC and their members, and the Boothill plot with Oswaldo was introduced at the end of Penacony. I wouldn't be surprised if we're invited or have to make a stop at pier point or something like that and then get caught up in IPC government schemes and stellaron hunter stuff Pier Point could also be a hub for the IPC while also being their HQ, like maybe we could visit some mentioned planets like Punklorde or the Hyai'i Federation as they seem to be lesser important planets and could just be like mini areas connected to the Pier Point map. idk just an idea that popped into my head just now But anyways, pier point seems the most likely to me but it could very well be some other IPC planet. I at least assume the next planet is related to the IPC
According to leakers, characters named jiaoqiu and feixiao(the general of xianzhou yaoqing) are supposed to be released in 2.4 or later and the next location would be definitely the xianzhou yaoqing or zhuming and this is also where we might get march 7th new version and this part of story is going to last for 3 patches minimum and after that there will be new planet therefore,yaoqing or zhuming is next
I think we're going to Pier Point, Aventurine, Jade, Boothill and the narrator of the true ending all mentioned Pier Point, IPC members, and the Amber Lord being next.
Assuming we now have a solid pattern, the next planet's story will place one of our crew members as the main character. Much like Dan Heng's story was center stage after getting Preservation in Belabog. My vote is going to either March or Welt. The planet Black Swan recommended may be her sneaky way of guiding March to planets related to her, I don't think we'll get a March power up just yet but we may get more clues as to who she is. As for Welt I think Edo Star is a good option, seeing the devastation the Legion has caused will probably make him think back to when he was fighting the Honkai, this would be a good way to inform people who haven't played HI3 as to why he's a fan favorite. Perhaps we'll also run into Void Archives and see what he's been up to since he left the train, Welt also has experience in corrupt organizations so maybe we'll get his full opinion on the IPC.
the plot you suggested to edo star feels so crazy I want it to be that way. like, for example what I enjoyed in inazuma in genshin is that the end of archon quest didn't mean the end of crisis between sangonomiya and main inazuma islands, also didn't revive enkanomiya at all. I like it when sometimes we can't fix everything in an instant even if I enjoy this scenario as well
I think Hoyo already collect the choice we made for their plan in the next future story, unlike Genshin that they have to rely on in-game survey Star rail use some interaction in-game to collect data(like when we finish every event or mini-game, NPC tend to ask us about how we feel) I choose Glass Belt because I want to meet someone from Morning actor and their perspective after Aha amusingly force them to be part of Elation
@@pxndavicthat was in the dream, they could change it in "reality". Although the survey helps them understand what people are looking for, I doubt it will be the next one. People underestimate how far game development is ahead for this type of game, next arch is probably already written for a long time and they're working on maps and units already. Maybe the survey helps them decide 2 or 3 worlds down the line
Aha has been getting some mentions in the story so I think we could potentially going to the mourning actors planet or a planet in epsilon because that’s where the masked fools hang out the most
Now you maked me think, if we get there, I belive that's where we will got on XI path, ik it sounds weird but I just had a long run of thought in my head and comed to this idea😆 Nice pfp
We’ve yet to obtain the Paths of Hunt, Abundance, Nihility, and Erudition. Herta’s Space Station is where we got Destruction, despite the Station being heavily tied to the Erudition. Jarilo, a planet that serves Preservation, started doubting the Preservation, and is where we got Preservation. Penacony is kinda similar to Jarilo, in the sense that it doubted the Aeon they believed in, and we obtained the Path of said Aeon. I don’t know if that is a trustworthy pattern or mere coincidence to … take slight notice of, but not devote our theories to. There is no guarantee that every planet we go to, is planned for the retrieval of a Path … otherwise we’d have 7 Planets and we are already at out Fourth Planet within a year, onto our Fifth … this would be an unfortunately short game in that scenario. We have the Xianzhou Alliance, where we did not obtain a Path, but obtained a powerful Ally in our destined fight against Nanook. So it would be cool if every Planet is designed for us to obtain the Seven Playable Paths, as well as an Ally for every Path (Trailblaze Ally was entirely spoon-fed to us within an hour, and Order possibly excluded/possibly not excluded, and if we somehow get a Propagation Ally, then we somehow got a Propagation Ally.) We’d be looking at … at least 7 Paths plus (at least) 15 Allies. At least, 20 more planets to come!!! (There are definitely enough planets in Star Rail to make this easily plausible.) Possible Planets we’ll obtain a Path on: Destruction - Herta’s Station Preservation - Jarilo Harmony - Penacony Hunt - Xianzhou Alliance (personally, I hope not, but … I don’t know any other alternatives atm.) Nihility - Black Forest (an interesting possibility, not likely possibility. Having fun with this possibility for the moment, will get serious when … things get serious. Edit: as far as I’m aware, there are only two references about Black Forest in the game, so I’m not surprised if you don’t know about this place. It’s mentioned in the curios “King of Sponges” and “Black Forest Cuckoo Clock”.) Erudition - Temple of Nous Abundance - Planet that belongs to one of the many Denizens of Abundance species. (Will definitely start narrowing this extensive list down four years from now.) Possible Planets/Factions we’ll obtain Allies from: (will only stick to the 7 Playable Paths for now, will explore the other potential Paths at a later date.) Hunt - Xianzhou Alliance (let’s just fit in the Galaxy Rangers … somewhere) Preservation - Pier Point/IPC Erudition - Temple of Nous/Genius Society (an alliance with all members, not just individuals from the Faction.) Abundance - some Denizen of Abundance species (once again, will narrow the list down at an extremely later date.) Nihility - Mr Nobody, as well as the Doctors of Nihility, as well as the Aeon of Nihility themselves. (It’s a joke, I love this Aeon’s design too much to not mention them.) Harmony - Harmonic Strings, how this will occur … we’ll just have to wait and see. Destruction - Ever-Flame Mansion/Annihilation Gang (I know, I know. A Destruction Faction fighting against their Aeon of Destruction? Never happening … well, you’re extremely likely to be right. I’m not adding them because I’m serious about it, but because it’s purely entertaining to imagine. And who knows, perhaps this insane Faction of Destruction is so faithful to their philosophy, that destroying the Aeon of Destruction makes perfect sense to them?)
@@pancrepe5576 Considering it’s called a Temple and not a Planet, I’d assume the Temple of Nous is on some Planet … however I guess this is something we’ll have to discover at a later time. I really hope we do get the chance of seeing this Temple.
Not many people talking about it, but it is almost certain were getting new paths somewhere down the line too. And I bet the MC will be one of the first of said path just like dendro.
i really wanna see melustanin it just sounds really cool a world made of crystal rock and we would get to see more of the knights of beauty who im dying to see more of
Spoilers for hsr leaks so be carefull up ahead and skip if you don't wanna know. Last warning... March is going to get a new form in 2.3/4/5 which has xianzhou characters in the art. Considering that the foxian character jiaoqiu will release soon we'll probably go back to the xianzhou and finally get fu xuan to recover march's memories with the help of black swan making it our next destination!
@@legendaryBrocolywe did, Jing Yuan talked about her in an event before being the descendant of another general and shipping her with his apprentice 😂 I don't think we'll be getting the new ship alongside the new units, it'll likely be an event with new area in the ship we already know. Entire new ship representing China will have the honor of a x.0 update for sure
I would like to point out Moonshield or another Xianzhou ship as the next possible location, though i really do adore the scenario you put together for Edo Star
I personally feel like those 4 destinations are all nice choices and perhaps they may do something very interesting and pull an interesting twist to where we could end up actually choosing 1 of the 4 (alter each players gameplay) and eventually reaching all 4 of them by the time we will be able to reach the next big milestone of the game they could be seen as 4 mini world adventures that we go to be seen like a filler till 3.0. so many different possibilities I feel like Remembrance might be linked to the Forshadowed March 7th buff, while their are other things that can be peculated ofc. Like you mentioned chance of us unlocking Nihility, but I feel like it be too soon since we only just got Harmony recently, so that may be a potential 3.0 hint/foreshadow since we know hoyo likes its foreshadowing in the story. we also got a chance of going to acheron's destination (not 1 of the 4 choices if I recall right), and that could be the foreshadow of 3.0 being Nihility trailblazer.
The probability for them to go to another Xianxhou ships is more than Pier point mostly because Mc unlocked the perservesion path before but not the hunt or abundance, and Loucha and Jingliu trials is going to be soon and they are definitely have plans. But I don't like that to happen I 'm tired of xianxhou and want something new at least not so soon. Hoping for an Elation theme place like the planet with mourning actor.
Every culture that represents China will get special treatment (Liyue expansions *cough cough*) so I bet next ship is coming soon. Maybe next lunar new year? But they know they messed up the story and design of the first one, they'll spice it up for the second time I hope.
I'm very curious about HSR's long term plan regarding its plot. We have more than a dozen planets already prominently mentioned as part of the lore, not to mention how older planets are also candidates for a second visit, like Belobog with its restorations and the mysterious "catastrophe" that Sparkle and Sampo were talking about. There's no way we'll get to see all these regions in the next 5 or even 10 years, so it'll be interesting to see what part of this huge universe we are focusing on.
Great theory. I was about to say that the most possible next destination is another Xianzhou ship, but then all I could think of that can support this are leaks
I feel like we’d return to the Loufu, since following the pattern we have been seeing with trailblazer and their new power is we unlock the same path as our enemy, destruction-antimatter legion, preservation-Cocolia (and Jiarlo 6 but I’m unsure if it is under preservation), and now harmony- The Family, so I feel like we’d likely fight some follower of the hunt or something of the sorts and unlock the hunt path next if we’re gonna follow dps path, defensive path, buffing path, which is what it seems like we’re following, we already have a hunt followers in the entirety of Loufu, so I feel it’d make sense
There are a few people who are mistaking Lord Ravager Zephyro as the one that was assassinated by the Rangers using the Swarm, that was Lord Ravager Zulo, Zulo was later replaced by Lord Ravager Celenova. I mean Zulo and Zephyro is kinda similar in name so I understand the confusion between the Lord Ravagers names
Honestly im kinda hoping for Moonshield to become an explorable planet, cause i want more Garden of Recollection and Fuli lore (and possibly March lore as well)
I doubt Lushaka the most for a non lore related reason: Fontaine. Hsr and Genshin not only intercalate new regions but the thematic of it as well. Thats why we got an ice planet first so it would be far enough from Genshin imo. So water region in hsr is years away, if we get there.
If melustanin (space rome) and Edo star (space japan) is going to be playable then i theorize the final planet is going to be sumeru expy (space middle east) but the thing is if they decide to make space sumeru in hsr how are they going to represent middle eastern culture better and at the same time have a space theme which is hard bc middle eastern culture combined with space from my imagination looks soulless but the most important question is which path and elements trailblazer going to receive in future arcs well here's my speculation Melustanin: Erudition-Ice (mage appearance) Edo star: Nihility-Lightning (trailblazer in black suit appearance) Sumeru expy: Abundance-Quantum (Sage appearance) Xianzhou: Hunt-Wind (something bad happens in Xianzhou and for a last ditch effort trailblazer gets the hunt path)(Xianzhou soldiers appearance) So yeah this is what I imagine happening in future arcs what do y'all think about it?
Space Sumeru could be Talia: it's a desert planet of bandits and machinery. I could imagine Abundance playing an important role: making a wasteland hospitable sounds like something Abundance Trailblazer could do.
I think it would be another ship in the Ten Lords Fleet, specifically the one that the newly announced 5 star is from. I totally forgot what it was called but it would be cool to see another part of the commission.
The new units are coming before any new ship that's confirmed, but we could be going there next lunar new year perhaps? I hope they up their game, it was by far the most boring region so far, somehow the tutorial was better.
@SiliconOneFour Ikr! Also, for the Path of Elation (since you mentioned that in the video), I imagine the gameplay being FUAs but to an extreme since the Simulated/Divergent Universe uses the Elation to buff FUAs. I guess the best way to explain what I mean is that characters of the Elation would have more opportunities to FUA. Instead of one trigger for FUAs, they may have three or four depending on the unit. Another path that could be playable is Propagation. Again, going off the buffs from Simulated/Divergent Universe, characters of the Propagation could have beefed up basic attacks and not as interesting skills. Like the inverse of how it is for most characters in the game where the basic attack is not worth it. For those following the Propagation, the skill may take 2 skill points in exchange for a buffed basic attack. Maybe the skill point gain is a +1 idk. And that's all I have before I talk your ear off. Can't wait to see what HSR has in store next!
I'm praying that the next planet we visit isn't the Edo star. We have enough Japanese inspired stuff in video games as it is. I remember that the leakers mentioned that a possible Polynesian or Russian inspired planet was in the works so I'm hoping it's one of those two, mostly the former
Maybe the next destination is Edo Star especially because there is an invasion by the antimatter legion and the situation is very suitable for Trailbazer to get the Nihility path. Because there may be events that make them feel frustrated, for example because they cannot save something and may make them depressed and feel empty, then they get the nihility path. Moreover, when we vote for the next destination, the choice for March and Dan Heng will not change (they will choose Edo Star) unlike Welt and Himeko whose choices are determined by our choices. maybe it's a hint for the next destination, but who knows? This is just my speculation.
I think the next path is going to be erudition considering su patch,Pearl begin likey the fouth stoneheart we encounter in the story who is likely an intelltron and the ipc news about the temple of empire Rupert
Honestly I don’t think we’ll ever get a true new path (as in new gameplay) as the current roster of roles feels pretty good. However if we were to get a new path I think it would be a combo of other paths. We already have characters who play fast and loose with the rules of paths. Example: Gallagher being a healer who can also be a break dps. So I think we could have a scenario similar to that, where we get a path like engimata (idk how to spell) where characters can do a mix of things in a way obscuring the abilities of paths
@@justinpehala2740I just don’t see why we would do that when we have already done that location we all want a new planet with some cool new story beats
@brickflair8926 there's multiple ships in the fleet, we're going to a different one not the loufou, and hate to break it to you but it's all but confirmed, also there's 7 other generals leading 7 other ships other then jing yuan did you assume we just weren't going to see them 😅
@@justinpehala2740 I just feel like there is an entire endless universe out there we can explore and the world building has limitless opportunities so going back to an area with a theme we hav already explored seems lazy and also that section of the game was the worst so far as well, I just feel like we can do better
Personally I think the next destination would be related to Aha and the IPC only because they mentioned some hints on recent story. But if those are the options I hope it’s Edo Star
Well i dont know these planets because i feel i kinda miss penacony (so my first chance to choose a planet is edo star maybe is a cool planet in there or something like that of others
Game design for these type of games are done waaay in advance, I doubt the next one isn't already deep in production. And for sure more ships representing China whether we like it or not. But they're definitely watching the responses for that question, probably a few updates down the line.
@@huzaifashikrani5510 Yeah, just like Genshin's updates. We'll get updates like 2.4, 2.5 etc. every 6 weeks, but the next planet will unfortunately be a while away
i'm so interested in Aha and the path of elation, so hearing the mourning actors' pov will be so fun. i hope ppl who speculate that we'll return to the xianzhou are wrong cuz i'm sooo sick of them, the plot and characters got me so bored i LMOST deleted the game 💀💀 Penacony is what drove me back into star rail so i really hope they don't loose me again with confusing plot and boring characters
I heard a rumor that since there are leaks of a new foxian character that we might be going back to Xianzhou, which I kind of hope we do maybe not rn but eventually

Keep in mind the Planar sets also are based on planets and could give hints since Penocony also became a set. So our bonus options are "Sigonia the Unclaimed Desolation", "Talia Kingdom of Banditry", "Vonwacq's Island of Birth", "Thalassa", "Salsotto the moving city", "Taikiyan the sports planet", and lastly "Pier Point home of the IPC Headquarters".
A short Description of each Planet since most don't read into the planar sets:
Sigonia: A sand planet home to Adventurine which is almost devoid of humans but home to Humanoid Lizard species
Talia: Once beaming with life turned into a comic dumping ground of trash which led it's original inhabitants to leave while making it a home of many engineers and thieves running from Galaxy Rangers
Vonwacq: A small but crowded planet filled with dense wild life and trees. Because the trees are so dense it creates a makeshift roof making the top only trees and the bottom so dark it creates a home of Fungi. The indigenous Wacqwacq (the race that lives there) only eat fruit and are living in the stone age still a former nameless (Yanming) once visited stating that the laws are really harsh.
Thalassa: Is a water only planet and had Mermaid like inhabitants, not much is known other than this planet is deeply inspired by Atlantis and that the the inhabitants are apart of the Xianzhou Alliance
Salsotto: Is an unfortune planet as half the year it's under the scorching hot sun and the other under the cold moon leaving it 100% inhabitable but somehow the Salsottoians made moving cities that would follow the changing equator (so where the sun and moon meet) making so they could live.
Taikiyan: A sports planet that was once a IPC home and had former traces of the Intelligentsia Guild now host car racing events on a 3 dimensional plan. The other top sport being "Roboball" which seems to be like Quidditch (Harry Potter) just without the broom
Pier Point: Home of the IPC and has there main headquarters "Pan-Cosmic Commercial Enterprise" nothing is known other than the Amber Lord (Qlipoth) once lived there before turning into an Aeon
Which one sounds the best?
I'd say Pier Point and Talia are most likely.
The former, because of all the IPC info we've been getting. The latter, because it sounds like the most realistic to design in terms of gameplay while still be unlike anything we have now.
Although, if new planets are always tied to a new path, we probably won't get one till 3.0. However, March 7th is hinted to be getting a new form "soon" by the writers and devs.
I raise you the fact that the galactic baseballer doing actual laser baseball would be amazing.

It is also considered to be a Category Omega site on the Potential Disaster Index so the possibility of a Stellaron being there is high as well. The first episode of the Interastral Peace Broadcast already mentioned Penacony’s invitation to the IPC too as early as 1.0 so I think the devs are using this as a way to foreshadow future locations.
Considering the fact that Screwllum is still not a playable character, as well as an unofficial confirmation from Dr. Ratio’s English voice actor that he’ll be working with the team for a year from now, and that the broadcast states that they’ll be following the story as it occurs, I have reason to believe that we’ll be exploring the Mechanical Emperor Tomb.
Perhaps we’ll even get the Erudition MC there on 3.X!
If we consider the Simulated Universe DLCs as foreshadowing future content, it only adds credence to the possibility of the tomb being our next story location.
After the Swarm Disaster in 1.3, we got a formal introduction with them first in Argenti’s character quest from 1.5, then Ruan Mei’s recreation of an Emanator in 1.6.
Considering that we just got Gold and Gears, a whole expansion that delves on the lore of the Inorganic War, the devs could have introduced as to who Emperor Rubert was so we’d be a little more familiar with him when he gets his story moment soon.
If this is the case we might even see the stoneheart ‘Pearl’, she’s been mentioned to be interested in that topic and if it’s the IPC’s request surely they’ll send an ambassador to help out 🐸
It is actually rumor our next location is Rome/Greek theme
Ooh, I'd love to see a character from the Armed Archaeologists.
I love the idea of an overall "glass" themed SU expansion in 2.3 or 2.4, based around the glass asteroids, Mirror Holders, and Fuli. I'd also love to see new Paths playable in SU, and was just thinking about how we've been getting several characters centered around Weakness Break (Xueyi, Ruan Mei, Harmony Trailblazer, and Boothill) and don't yet have a dedicated Break path in SU like we do for other niches of Follow Up, DoT, and Ultimate. I was hoping that it could be The Harmony, but if it was The Beauty instead I'd like that as well. Argenti is also due for a rerun soon, so he could also appear or be referenced there.
I also like the idea of going to the place where the first Stellaron appeared, but I hope that would happen a lot later in the story so we can get big lore bombs about what exactly the Stellarons are, how they are sealed, and what the possible effects of us literally running around with one inside of us could be (as well as either confirming or debunking whether they're related to Nanook or not)
Seeing that the Eno Star will have a higher chance being the next destination
I honestly think that an IPC related location will be the most likely next destination. We've heard so much about pier point and have been getting to know more about the IPC and their members, and the Boothill plot with Oswaldo was introduced at the end of Penacony. I wouldn't be surprised if we're invited or have to make a stop at pier point or something like that and then get caught up in IPC government schemes and stellaron hunter stuff
Pier Point could also be a hub for the IPC while also being their HQ, like maybe we could visit some mentioned planets like Punklorde or the Hyai'i Federation as they seem to be lesser important planets and could just be like mini areas connected to the Pier Point map. idk just an idea that popped into my head just now
But anyways, pier point seems the most likely to me but it could very well be some other IPC planet. I at least assume the next planet is related to the IPC
I doubt the thing about smaller worlds as a part of pier point, but I fucking hope that happens! Incredible idea!
Seems to be a bit early
According to leakers, characters named jiaoqiu and feixiao(the general of xianzhou yaoqing) are supposed to be released in 2.4 or later and the next location would be definitely the xianzhou yaoqing or zhuming and this is also where we might get march 7th new version and this part of story is going to last for 3 patches minimum and after that there will be new planet therefore,yaoqing or zhuming is next
i think the other xianzhou ships won't be considered as new planet (as in not 3.0) but treated as part of luofu's expansion.
I like 90% sure we not going get new plane till 2.6 so those may just be updated on older map
You were almost right
I think we're going to Pier Point, Aventurine, Jade, Boothill and the narrator of the true ending all mentioned Pier Point, IPC members, and the Amber Lord being next.
Way too early.Pier point must be the last one
Assuming we now have a solid pattern, the next planet's story will place one of our crew members as the main character. Much like Dan Heng's story was center stage after getting Preservation in Belabog.
My vote is going to either March or Welt.
The planet Black Swan recommended may be her sneaky way of guiding March to planets related to her, I don't think we'll get a March power up just yet but we may get more clues as to who she is. As for Welt I think Edo Star is a good option, seeing the devastation the Legion has caused will probably make him think back to when he was fighting the Honkai, this would be a good way to inform people who haven't played HI3 as to why he's a fan favorite. Perhaps we'll also run into Void Archives and see what he's been up to since he left the train, Welt also has experience in corrupt organizations so maybe we'll get his full opinion on the IPC.
the plot you suggested to edo star feels so crazy I want it to be that way. like, for example what I enjoyed in inazuma in genshin is that the end of archon quest didn't mean the end of crisis between sangonomiya and main inazuma islands, also didn't revive enkanomiya at all. I like it when sometimes we can't fix everything in an instant even if I enjoy this scenario as well
I think Hoyo already collect the choice we made for their plan in the next future story, unlike Genshin that they have to rely on in-game survey Star rail use some interaction in-game to collect data(like when we finish every event or mini-game, NPC tend to ask us about how we feel)
I choose Glass Belt because I want to meet someone from Morning actor and their perspective after Aha amusingly force them to be part of Elation
nah if you pick i dont care...it says Edo Star it is
thats not how it works lol
@@pxndavicthat was in the dream, they could change it in "reality". Although the survey helps them understand what people are looking for, I doubt it will be the next one. People underestimate how far game development is ahead for this type of game, next arch is probably already written for a long time and they're working on maps and units already. Maybe the survey helps them decide 2 or 3 worlds down the line
I just want Vonwacq, we need them beach episode filler planet after all the emotional trauma💀
And that beach filler planet turns out to be Penacony 2.0 🤣
Aha has been getting some mentions in the story so I think we could potentially going to the mourning actors planet or a planet in epsilon because that’s where the masked fools hang out the most
Now you maked me think, if we get there, I belive that's where we will got on XI path, ik it sounds weird but I just had a long run of thought in my head and comed to this idea😆
Nice pfp
We’ve yet to obtain the Paths of Hunt, Abundance, Nihility, and Erudition.
Herta’s Space Station is where we got Destruction, despite the Station being heavily tied to the Erudition.
Jarilo, a planet that serves Preservation, started doubting the Preservation, and is where we got Preservation.
Penacony is kinda similar to Jarilo, in the sense that it doubted the Aeon they believed in, and we obtained the Path of said Aeon.
I don’t know if that is a trustworthy pattern or mere coincidence to … take slight notice of, but not devote our theories to.
There is no guarantee that every planet we go to, is planned for the retrieval of a Path … otherwise we’d have 7 Planets and we are already at out Fourth Planet within a year, onto our Fifth … this would be an unfortunately short game in that scenario.
We have the Xianzhou Alliance, where we did not obtain a Path, but obtained a powerful Ally in our destined fight against Nanook. So it would be cool if every Planet is designed for us to obtain the Seven Playable Paths, as well as an Ally for every Path (Trailblaze Ally was entirely spoon-fed to us within an hour, and Order possibly excluded/possibly not excluded, and if we somehow get a Propagation Ally, then we somehow got a Propagation Ally.) We’d be looking at … at least 7 Paths plus (at least) 15 Allies. At least, 20 more planets to come!!! (There are definitely enough planets in Star Rail to make this easily plausible.)
Possible Planets we’ll obtain a Path on:
Destruction - Herta’s Station
Preservation - Jarilo
Harmony - Penacony
Hunt - Xianzhou Alliance (personally, I hope not, but … I don’t know any other alternatives atm.)
Nihility - Black Forest (an interesting possibility, not likely possibility. Having fun with this possibility for the moment, will get serious when … things get serious. Edit: as far as I’m aware, there are only two references about Black Forest in the game, so I’m not surprised if you don’t know about this place. It’s mentioned in the curios “King of Sponges” and “Black Forest Cuckoo Clock”.)
Erudition - Temple of Nous
Abundance - Planet that belongs to one of the many Denizens of Abundance species. (Will definitely start narrowing this extensive list down four years from now.)
Possible Planets/Factions we’ll obtain Allies from: (will only stick to the 7 Playable Paths for now, will explore the other potential Paths at a later date.)
Hunt - Xianzhou Alliance (let’s just fit in the Galaxy Rangers … somewhere)
Preservation - Pier Point/IPC
Erudition - Temple of Nous/Genius Society (an alliance with all members, not just individuals from the Faction.)
Abundance - some Denizen of Abundance species (once again, will narrow the list down at an extremely later date.)
Nihility - Mr Nobody, as well as the Doctors of Nihility, as well as the Aeon of Nihility themselves. (It’s a joke, I love this Aeon’s design too much to not mention them.)
Harmony - Harmonic Strings, how this will occur … we’ll just have to wait and see.
Destruction - Ever-Flame Mansion/Annihilation Gang (I know, I know. A Destruction Faction fighting against their Aeon of Destruction? Never happening … well, you’re extremely likely to be right. I’m not adding them because I’m serious about it, but because it’s purely entertaining to imagine. And who knows, perhaps this insane Faction of Destruction is so faithful to their philosophy, that destroying the Aeon of Destruction makes perfect sense to them?)
The temple of Nous is where Fu Xuan went to recieve her mini-Omniscia. I don't think it's a place visitable without the power of an Aeon.
@@pancrepe5576 Considering it’s called a Temple and not a Planet, I’d assume the Temple of Nous is on some Planet … however I guess this is something we’ll have to discover at a later time. I really hope we do get the chance of seeing this Temple.
Not many people talking about it, but it is almost certain were getting new paths somewhere down the line too. And I bet the MC will be one of the first of said path just like dendro.
The ost that you used at the beginning, when you were talking about the water world, is now my favourite ost in genshin, ITS SO BEAUTIFUL
gosh i hope we go to melustanin, im a sucker for the beauty and i NEED more lore about i
i really wanna see melustanin it just sounds really cool a world made of crystal rock and we would get to see more of the knights of beauty who im dying to see more of
Spoilers for hsr leaks so be carefull up ahead and skip if you don't wanna know.
Last warning...
March is going to get a new form in 2.3/4/5 which has xianzhou characters in the art. Considering that the foxian character jiaoqiu will release soon we'll probably go back to the xianzhou and finally get fu xuan to recover march's memories with the help of black swan making it our next destination!
The new character that was revealed is from a different Xianzhou vessel, not the luofu.
@@SnailSnail-lo4pm i see, however when i made the comment we didn't have that info.
Still thanks for the info!
@@legendaryBrocolywe did, Jing Yuan talked about her in an event before being the descendant of another general and shipping her with his apprentice 😂 I don't think we'll be getting the new ship alongside the new units, it'll likely be an event with new area in the ship we already know. Entire new ship representing China will have the honor of a x.0 update for sure
Tbh I wanna go tot the world where sparkle originates and see that huge city where you see in her trailer
I would like to point out Moonshield or another Xianzhou ship as the next possible location, though i really do adore the scenario you put together for Edo Star
I personally feel like those 4 destinations are all nice choices and perhaps they may do something very interesting and pull an interesting twist to where we could end up actually choosing 1 of the 4 (alter each players gameplay) and eventually reaching all 4 of them by the time we will be able to reach the next big milestone of the game
they could be seen as 4 mini world adventures that we go to be seen like a filler till 3.0.
so many different possibilities
I feel like Remembrance might be linked to the Forshadowed March 7th buff, while their are other things that can be peculated ofc.
Like you mentioned chance of us unlocking Nihility, but I feel like it be too soon since we only just got Harmony recently, so that may be a potential 3.0 hint/foreshadow since we know hoyo likes its foreshadowing in the story.
we also got a chance of going to acheron's destination (not 1 of the 4 choices if I recall right), and that could be the foreshadow of 3.0 being Nihility trailblazer.
The probability for them to go to another Xianxhou ships is more than Pier point mostly because Mc unlocked the perservesion path before but not the hunt or abundance, and Loucha and Jingliu trials is going to be soon and they are definitely have plans. But I don't like that to happen I 'm tired of xianxhou and want something new at least not so soon. Hoping for an Elation theme place like the planet with mourning actor.
Every culture that represents China will get special treatment (Liyue expansions *cough cough*) so I bet next ship is coming soon. Maybe next lunar new year? But they know they messed up the story and design of the first one, they'll spice it up for the second time I hope.
I'm very curious about HSR's long term plan regarding its plot. We have more than a dozen planets already prominently mentioned as part of the lore, not to mention how older planets are also candidates for a second visit, like Belobog with its restorations and the mysterious "catastrophe" that Sparkle and Sampo were talking about. There's no way we'll get to see all these regions in the next 5 or even 10 years, so it'll be interesting to see what part of this huge universe we are focusing on.
Edo Star seems like a good place to have a Nihility Trailblazer hehehe
Well....we are not going to edi star.
Edo Star would be awesome to see. Like we've seen the Antimatter Legion in HSS and Xianzhou but they havent had much of a presence.
i still hope we will be able to visit punklorde though 😔
Crossin fingers we get a history of penacony vid
Lalody's lore has a great video about this, it's Misha focused but still
Great theory. I was about to say that the most possible next destination is another Xianzhou ship, but then all I could think of that can support this are leaks
I feel like we’d return to the Loufu, since following the pattern we have been seeing with trailblazer and their new power is we unlock the same path as our enemy, destruction-antimatter legion, preservation-Cocolia (and Jiarlo 6 but I’m unsure if it is under preservation), and now harmony- The Family, so I feel like we’d likely fight some follower of the hunt or something of the sorts and unlock the hunt path next if we’re gonna follow dps path, defensive path, buffing path, which is what it seems like we’re following, we already have a hunt followers in the entirety of Loufu, so I feel it’d make sense
There are a few people who are mistaking Lord Ravager Zephyro as the one that was assassinated by the Rangers using the Swarm, that was Lord Ravager Zulo, Zulo was later replaced by Lord Ravager Celenova. I mean Zulo and Zephyro is kinda similar in name so I understand the confusion between the Lord Ravagers names
Honestly im kinda hoping for Moonshield to become an explorable planet, cause i want more Garden of Recollection and Fuli lore (and possibly March lore as well)
i wanna see Taikiyan so much, this planets is gonna be so dope i don't think anything tops
A planet where masked fool like Sampo and Sparkle would likely gather is maybe one of the future planet
I doubt Lushaka the most for a non lore related reason: Fontaine. Hsr and Genshin not only intercalate new regions but the thematic of it as well. Thats why we got an ice planet first so it would be far enough from Genshin imo. So water region in hsr is years away, if we get there.
If melustanin (space rome) and Edo star (space japan) is going to be playable then i theorize the final planet is going to be sumeru expy (space middle east) but the thing is if they decide to make space sumeru in hsr how are they going to represent middle eastern culture better and at the same time have a space theme which is hard bc middle eastern culture combined with space from my imagination looks soulless but the most important question is which path and elements trailblazer going to receive in future arcs well here's my speculation
Melustanin: Erudition-Ice (mage appearance)
Edo star: Nihility-Lightning (trailblazer in black suit appearance)
Sumeru expy: Abundance-Quantum (Sage appearance)
Xianzhou: Hunt-Wind (something bad happens in Xianzhou and for a last ditch effort trailblazer gets the hunt path)(Xianzhou soldiers appearance)
So yeah this is what I imagine happening in future arcs what do y'all think about it?
Space Sumeru could be Talia: it's a desert planet of bandits and machinery.
I could imagine Abundance playing an important role: making a wasteland hospitable sounds like something Abundance Trailblazer could do.
I think it would be another ship in the Ten Lords Fleet, specifically the one that the newly announced 5 star is from. I totally forgot what it was called but it would be cool to see another part of the commission.
The new units are coming before any new ship that's confirmed, but we could be going there next lunar new year perhaps? I hope they up their game, it was by far the most boring region so far, somehow the tutorial was better.
We’re not going anywhere, the Trailblazer is gonna help rebuild Penacony and live with Firefly (Copium)
If the Path of Beauty was a playable path, its gameplay style would be self-preservation/healing.
What do you think?
Yeah, I think it would fit with the themes we see in Argenti's boss fight!
@SiliconOneFour Ikr! Also, for the Path of Elation (since you mentioned that in the video), I imagine the gameplay being FUAs but to an extreme since the Simulated/Divergent Universe uses the Elation to buff FUAs. I guess the best way to explain what I mean is that characters of the Elation would have more opportunities to FUA. Instead of one trigger for FUAs, they may have three or four depending on the unit.
Another path that could be playable is Propagation. Again, going off the buffs from Simulated/Divergent Universe, characters of the Propagation could have beefed up basic attacks and not as interesting skills. Like the inverse of how it is for most characters in the game where the basic attack is not worth it. For those following the Propagation, the skill may take 2 skill points in exchange for a buffed basic attack. Maybe the skill point gain is a +1 idk.
And that's all I have before I talk your ear off. Can't wait to see what HSR has in store next!
I'm praying that the next planet we visit isn't the Edo star. We have enough Japanese inspired stuff in video games as it is. I remember that the leakers mentioned that a possible Polynesian or Russian inspired planet was in the works so I'm hoping it's one of those two, mostly the former
We already has Russia(ice world)
There's nothing Japanese in hsr, it'd be unique at least.
I wonder what will happen, i think next will be aoe damage dealer wind caelus 💚
Edo star is most likely as it will be the Japanese themed place, with Edo/Tokyo in the name and all.
Maybe the next destination is Edo Star especially because there is an invasion by the antimatter legion and the situation is very suitable for Trailbazer to get the Nihility path. Because there may be events that make them feel frustrated, for example because they cannot save something and may make them depressed and feel empty, then they get the nihility path. Moreover, when we vote for the next destination, the choice for March and Dan Heng will not change (they will choose Edo Star) unlike Welt and Himeko whose choices are determined by our choices. maybe it's a hint for the next destination, but who knows? This is just my speculation.
still sad we dont get more penacony and get the other parts
I still can't believe we don't have any playable pepeshi, it suddenly hit me, not even any potentially playable model in the game :(
Fuxuan : did i not pepeshi enough to you 🥹
I think the next path is going to be erudition considering su patch,Pearl begin likey the fouth stoneheart we encounter in the story who is likely an intelltron and the ipc news about the temple of empire Rupert
Well lets go to the agate world yall
Honestly I don’t think we’ll ever get a true new path (as in new gameplay) as the current roster of roles feels pretty good. However if we were to get a new path I think it would be a combo of other paths. We already have characters who play fast and loose with the rules of paths. Example: Gallagher being a healer who can also be a break dps. So I think we could have a scenario similar to that, where we get a path like engimata (idk how to spell) where characters can do a mix of things in a way obscuring the abilities of paths
We're going to a xianshou ship not the loufou but another one in the fleet ❤
God I hope not
@@BrickFlairMMA sorry to tell ya 😅
@@justinpehala2740I just don’t see why we would do that when we have already done that location we all want a new planet with some cool new story beats
@brickflair8926 there's multiple ships in the fleet, we're going to a different one not the loufou, and hate to break it to you but it's all but confirmed, also there's 7 other generals leading 7 other ships other then jing yuan did you assume we just weren't going to see them 😅
@@justinpehala2740 I just feel like there is an entire endless universe out there we can explore and the world building has limitless opportunities so going back to an area with a theme we hav already explored seems lazy and also that section of the game was the worst so far as well, I just feel like we can do better
Personally I think the next destination would be related to Aha and the IPC only because they mentioned some hints on recent story.
But if those are the options I hope it’s Edo Star
what about screwllum's homeland?
It might be nothing but ‘Edo’ is also a very famous period of history in Japan so maybe that planet is modeled off of old Jp like Inazuma for genshin
Well i dont know these planets because i feel i kinda miss penacony (so my first chance to choose a planet is edo star maybe is a cool planet in there or something like that of others
Arasaka Tow- I mean IPC Headquarters.
will black swan and boothil travel with us or it was just a dream ?
I really hope they do, guess we'll have to wait for 2.3 to see.
@@SiliconOneFour yeah we really need more companions in the express to live up the mood
I think that hoyoverse is using that dialogue option as survey for our next destination
Game design for these type of games are done waaay in advance, I doubt the next one isn't already deep in production. And for sure more ships representing China whether we like it or not. But they're definitely watching the responses for that question, probably a few updates down the line.
Pier Point or Punklorde
Probably the former
I chose Edo Star in these in game
Me too.
It sounds way more fun than others.
When will be the next update happening??
The next major update will be 3.0, probably just over half a year from now
@@SiliconOneFour wait what? So we have to wait half a year? 😭
@@huzaifashikrani5510 Yeah, just like Genshin's updates. We'll get updates like 2.4, 2.5 etc. every 6 weeks, but the next planet will unfortunately be a while away
I accidentally choose the glass planet but I wanted to choose Edo star
It would be funny if Idrila was Aha in disguise
i'm so interested in Aha and the path of elation, so hearing the mourning actors' pov will be so fun. i hope ppl who speculate that we'll return to the xianzhou are wrong cuz i'm sooo sick of them, the plot and characters got me so bored i LMOST deleted the game 💀💀 Penacony is what drove me back into star rail so i really hope they don't loose me again with confusing plot and boring characters
LEAKS
Based on leaks, our next planet will be based of Ancient Rome.
Wasn’t it leaked to be Talia?
I heard a rumor that since there are leaks of a new foxian character that we might be going back to Xianzhou, which I kind of hope we do maybe not rn but eventually
Spoiler
It is confirmed we are going back to xianzhou
