Hmm what if I don't have a bank account
The eternal ayaka banner was the first time i got ayaka never regretted it and in her next rerun i got her c1 making her skill going on a killing spreed with kokomi making frozen 10 movie the revenge of ayaka
@@kelvinx5yt ya same but what if i want it in Genesis Crystal and just give him my uid
@@kelvinx5yt "Please read carefully and only submit if you meet the criteria" it's all in the form! If you can't receive the prize it wouldn't be able to be granted
I’ve been wondering if you would do this! Exited for it!
Ayaka embraced eternity better than Raiden herself. I was so depressed everytime i logged in and her banner was still there.
Just seeing the thumbnail gave me horrible flashbacks of this💀
Same😂
Raiden forced the notion of eternity by putting her nation and Vision holders on notice and Ayaka just achieved it by being herself
Honestly it gave me hope
Funny because I started playing the Game 16 days before the end of her banner so it was like a normal banner to me 😂
Hoyoverse actually sending care packages of food and water to the employees is legit so heartwarming, though.
There are so many cases of companies abusing their employees, but Hoyoverse prioritized their employees and made sure they were safe, before caring about making money. It's such a simple thing, but it's still so nice to see. The government failed to take care of them, so Hoyoverse stepped up.
Yeah, this is nice
I love how the fandom branded Ayaka as a Yandere after the 240 days of Ayaka. It was out of their hands with Covid, the best thing they could do was extend it and the Fandom's perspective on one of the most anticipated characters becomes evil
Her and Noelle would have an epic duel over the nonconsensual ownership of the Traveler
I actually had no idea yandere Ayaka was spawned from this before this video.
@@Pelfmiester I would've thought it came from how she manipulated the traveller.
9:54 The 240 days makes more sense from a programmer's perspective. The banners were probably saved on the database as having a Banner Start Date and a Banner End Date. The time remaining is simply the difference between the Banner End Date and the current date. As they did not know when the lockdowns would end, they would need to update the Banner End Date to a reasonably distant future date so that the banners wouldn't just disappear as a quick fix. Other fixes such as changing the logic of the display or changing the text will require additional coding and testing which may or may not break the banner.
Therefore, on May 5, the 125th day of the year, the banner end date was set to something along the lines of Dec 31, 2022 or Jan 1, 2023. This would cause the days remaining calculated from the updated banner end date to be 240 days.
Yeah, I thought so too, when it happened, I thought it was just the number of days until the end of the year. Didn't really think about the programming but that makes total sense to me
The Shanghai situation was indeed very bad, even more considering how many people live in it.
the fact that Mihoyo had the actually send food themselves tells u ALOT of how badly organized it was by the goverment.
That Ayaka Yandere meme though, she'll never lose that again even more since the meme has long since evolved in some places to her chasing him whenever Aether goes after the latest waifu.
What really made the yandere meme applicable was that no other character was crushing on the traveler as hard as she was at the time. We literally went on a date and she wants to hold hands. The banner was the perfect storm for her and looking back, those memes may have boosted her popularity more than the actual story and gameplay
funny thing that shes legit now in fountain. I can see the memes chasing him all the way to fountain xD
And she also gets a gun XD
@@Slayeahlo literally solidifing the who yandere Ayaka meme 😭😭
I do love how mihoyo took care of their chinese employees, better than the government could ever do.
As I said under the Mujin video comment, it is hard for westerners to get the whole picture of country like China by reading only English news from only western media, for obvious political reason. At least as a Shanghainess, my view is that many people do think Shanghai did a bad job as a local government because of some stupid officials. But many other provinces, even some of the districts in Shanghai still did a quite decent job preventing the virus getting out of control. My family and all my relatives in Shanghai basically didn't face any issue back then.
The extended delay gave me a chance to get Ayaka as I had just spend a month and a half hospitalized.
The yandere persona for Ayaka was just starting to pecolate before the "240 days", but the event happening made sure to solidify it for all time.
The five-week-patches were awful for me personally lol. Having a full-time job and hobbies other than gaming/Genshin, i always relied on that “empty week” to catch up with exploration, farming etc (basically everything that isn’t time-limited). When this was gone it felt as if i suddenly didn’t have time for anything anymore and i was so stressed the whole time lmao.
FACTS!!! The people "scolding" mihoyo game developers for not releasing content was absolutely insane.
Some Chatter calling Mujin "The Breedable Boy" is actually unhinged
9:54 Actually That placetime holder just shows How much days left for the year to finish. We have already finished 125 days so that’s why .
15:00 exactly why as a f2p I dread the thought of 3 character banners - we don’t even have enough time or rewards to pull for one character, let alone 3.
Chronicled Wish banner: *Allow us to introduce ourselves*
even tho i didnt start genshin during that phase, it still haunts me in my dreams
3:23, the answer is actually simple, they buy from another country where primos costs less, then re- sell it. I know nothing about this site, but just a reminder, don't give your accounts data like mail and password and think twice before buying something from someone you don't know or don't trust (it's not about this site, but all unofficial sites)
During that whole thing, I managed to completely finish out both Mondstadt and Liyue's assortment of primo giving quest and even finished up either one or both of their statues. I have not managed to clear out an entire nation worth of quests or finish a statue in its entirety since then. The constant flurry of events with time limits and the constant need to get stuff done makes it so difficult for me to even think about properly exploring and gathering stuff.
This is what i did. Helped me clear everything for sumeru.
this delay actually helped me to overcome my gambling addiction with the game.
on these few days I learned that I couldn't waste 2-3/8 of my salary in primogems.
already had Ayaka, Ayato was the last banner I pulled with my money (220€ to get just the character)
I've been clean since, only welkin and nothing else. I still pull for characters and lose 50/50ties, but I don't swipe my card until I get all the characters.
the one that's about the "Death of someone" actually occurs during Alhaitham's drip marketting and The Game Awards, which as you know... we're busy fighting with Sonic Fandom to make out the 5 days of mourning.
Nah it was 4.2 stream got delayed
@@MiyuKawasaki oh yeah, that's pretty recent as well.
But i swear i read about an article about a high profile Chinese figure who passed away during TGA date
@@RTheStoryteller7 ye wanderer teaser got delayed bc someone died
I remember this time. Most of the community were respectful (at least where I go for Genshin) but some people actually asked for apologems and we were like???? Wtf no
6 weeks also makes sense cuz some people don’t have a ton of time and use that extra week to catch up on the story
We still have 5 weeks patches till this day tho :)
@@glory_m99 no we don’t they ended after 4 patches to make up for that month
@@glory_m99we have whole 6 weeks what are on?
I actually liked it when they prolonged the ayaka banner so that I could pull for her. But I got keqing 💀 and I have to wait for a rerun.
Edit: This was in Apr-May 2022, I did get Ayaka in her rerun in Mar 2023 :)
Same for me. I got blocked by Jean twice when Ayaka first release and this banner. So the extended time help me farm enough to get her.
Well you're in luck! Shes here.
You had 200+ days 😭
@@taylormoreira1266 it was only 42 days for this particular banner
honestly, that 4 week freeze period was a good time to kinda catch up on content already in the game. I can't say for other players, but a friend and I were just chilling, collecting resources again without a care, farming all books and enhancements to level up our characters and their weapons, do side quests, achievement farming, and building out serenitea pots. and other smaller things. Yeah, it was boring to see the same banner during that time, but it wasn't the worse thing that could've happened.
Kinda like how Ashikai uses yanfei mujin started using xiao as his mascot
Also 7:10 based finally some genshin love
hahahhahaha.. this and the free AR42 Ayaka still haunts my dreams xD.. Like damn... Ayaka here and Ayaka there... They clearly had her as the favorite while Eula at that time didnt even had a rerun
“Free Ayaka 42” was just a stupid false meme spread by community . This Ayaka 42 you can get during CBT .
Yep that why it still haunts me to this day@@sentience3033
I think 240 days thing was an automatic placeholder. If a banner timer runs out and a new banner isnt brought the game automaticly puts up the previous banner again with 240 days.
Ah, i think i remember this one. If not wrong, the pandemic makes every mihoyo worker cannot go home, they all stayed at the office.
Also, i heard the rumor there's someone tried to stab Mihoyo CEO, but failed and got arrested. I forgot what the motive is.
I think the ceo stuff was related to honkai and was a different time
I guess that guy had had enough of qiqi
From my understanding of the guy trying to st*b Dawei (CEO)
Long story short
MHY planned a bunny event for Honkai Impact 3rd Anniversary for GLOBAL. CN version of HI3 can't get it because of government regulation with bunny suits. CN community was pissed AF. The guy was so mad that Global was gonna get the bunny suits and CN doesn't. The attempt to physically attack Dawei caused MHY to cancel the bunny event for Global. And actually provided compensation for CN instead..
(If im missing any information, please correct me)
Hoyo CN community can be very very scary at times
@@EeveesBentoBoxAh, yeah. That Bunny event one. I forgot of that happened during pandemic or not. It's been a long time ago.
I think you got it mixed up. The employees had to stay home and couldn't go to the office.
I was and still am living in Shanghai. That period of the pandemic was the worst we had, way worse then even the beginning of the pandemic. Luckily I got through it comparatively well, and was able to get a mistsplitter due to the extended banner (had Ayaka from her debut banner).
I actually think that the shorter patch cycles are still fine because there are often still complaints about patches dragging on once the main events or stories are finished by the majority of players. Perhaps not all the time, but it was actually pleasant (to me and a lot I saw) to have them be shorter in Sumeru. I don't know their usual story writing cycle though, so I'm not sure if the reason they flat out went back to six week cycle is due to that being the norm or due to them actually needing that much for prep time. Also have to think about that time being used for closed betas for upcoming characters and events as well, which each beta group should end up going through, and they need time as well. Lots to consider but those were actually still my preferred length.
The fact that I lost the 50/50 TWICE (once on the character banner and weapon banner each) and still managed to get Ayaka and Mistsplitter shows how insane that time was.
Hoyoverse just touching some grass, eating, drinking, takin a shower,takin a walk, and going to the gym🗿
Personally, I was grateful on that long Ayaka banner. Together with pure luck, I got my Ayaka from C1 from her first banner to c6. When I started Genshin (1.1), she's the only character I'm really excited for cuz she's also part of the beta and was in love with her skill animation (still am. she's my biggest gun for Abyss) and her full constellation is just simple yet very amazing.
I started Genshin at the start of this year so when I saw memes about it I was so confused 😂😭
The 240 days was a godsend for me and mihoyo, i got ayaka after loosing pity, mihoyo got time to plan out genshin more than before
Oh god I remember this 😂 always love your videos bran, can’t wait for the YLYL HSR version!!
people ask me when i joined the game, and I cant give an exact time, because it was in the ayaka banner, and i dont know how long i was there for, or how much and past when I joined, i was just one in an army of ar 15's who got ayaka, when they werent even out of mondstadt
I started to play Genshin when the ayaka banner stuff happened, and there were a huge controversy in the CN community against this longer banner bc some of the older players think that since a lot of new players are hopping onto Genshin due to lockdown, they got more time to get primogems from quests and chests, and they would be likely to get at least a C2 ayaka + slicer😅😅😅
some friends and i at the time googled "240 days from now" when that banner came out. It landed on Dec 31st, 2022. That's probably why it was 240, to land exactly on the end of the year
Joined the game around 2.6, one of my first ever banners was that ayaka banner, I thought for a moment that’s how banners were till my friends freaked out lol
this long banner is the reason why i now have a C2 Ayaka
Meanwhile I had no wifi for three months….. *THREE MONTHS* and I didn’t know what was going on outside, at least I have siblings I would be bored without them
I am still impressed with how well they managed to get back on schedule after this delay. It must had been insane when they got back in the studios again, trying their best to fix the delay.
We had like a complete lockdown in Croatia for like a month or two where you had a designated day to go to store for your neighbourhood and you couldn't go out otherwise without a pass. Wild days
During the 240 days of Ayaka's banner was my most memorable time in playing Genshin Impact, that's because I got Ayaka and I saved up enough primogems that I got Yoimiya after
I remember coming across a tweet saying how Xiao's VA was doing recordings at home and was probably being heard by his neighbors 😂
now i know why ppl in the community stamped ayayas big ass forehead with the label "Y A N D E R E"
I was actually happy that Ayaka's banner was extended. I manage to pull her after losing the 50/50 and got her weapon
This actually came in clutch like i got to save primos
I actually started playing near the end of 2.6 and got Ayaka in 14 wishes. I wasn’t aware of this "eternal banner"
Im so grateful for her being my first 5 star. Things would've been so different if the banner wasn’t extended
I like how the most replayed part is the ad skip KEKW
If 240 days was real everyone would had c6 ayaka
I don't think i've ever realized how bad the lockdowns were in Shanghai until that video, that was crazy and awful.
Meanwhile, my first Ayaka was from this particular banner. Figured I might as well.
Ayaka: Look at me, i am eternity now
according to popular estimates on billibilli, furina's banner alone made a total of of 440 millions dollars in the month of november. with PC and console contributing 220 million and china(mobile) alone contributing around 130 million, with the rest coming from global mobile
Ayaka, you were supposed to help us defeat Eternity, not join them.
Lmaoo😭😭😭😭
My favorite joke out of the situation had to be Rawfler's Ayaka and the Eternal banner, for his never ending teasing of any Ayaka.exe this happened almost perfectly timed
The craziest thing is that I still played even when the banner was 240 days because I wanted Ayaka. I got her c1. F2P be the way.
I think most people also forget that we got 400 primos for every week until 2.7 arrived
Forget her excellency, Ayaka achieved eternity. I saw this and thought “Bran’s going to have ptsd”
This banner was hell I was so bored I was like, hey lemme do 20 wishes on both banners because I was so bored and I wanted a couple of 4-star constellations so I can start building them. I had zero pity, I only did singles for both and to my shock and dismay I got Ayaka and Mistsplitter at 17 and 11 pity respectively which was crazy because I didn't want Ayaka and I had no use for her sword aside from it being tied to the hip for my Bennett and she's Lvl. 20 til this day
I remember rejoining genshin for venti, (i really wanted venti and lost my 50/50 so kinda grinded and then left to make sure to get him). and than the ayaka banner struck and I was like yes I can catch up with my quest. moral of the story I did not catch up with my quest But I was closer then than I am now :D
Great video, I wonder how many weird anecdotes we will have about Genshin by the end of khaenri'ah chapter. Edit: yes 999 would make the community think "Ok, they don't know the date" but 240? Damn guys.
JUST AYAKA.
JUST AYAKA.
JUST AYAKA.
JUST AYAKA.
I just said, "Cool! More time to roll for Ayaka cons." Ended up with C3 and almost a C4 that ended up being Qiqi.
All the horror stories i have heard about the pandemic make me so thankful that i live in Sweden and was able to go outside and live my life
I actually forgot about this banner... At least at the start of the video.
I did remember the sad incident in china. I mean... How could I not?
But the banner itself took a while to kick in.😂
gaming community: "there is no perfect company"
Mihoyo:"... hold my beer"
00:00 aaa as I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do in 4.3 when I want EVERYONE AND PEOPLE SAY PULL ON THE WEAPON BANNER
ughhh
I'm even starting to look at "can Kaeya bandaid"
"What does Raiden do again"
21 seconds ago.... What???
Nice reaction BTW. Crazy to think that Genshin Impact was actually get frozen.
Yandere Ayaka literally haunting us like its actually canon 😨
Well only sane person will not see it as canon or actually canon
Ayaka cementing her legacy not only as a fan favorite to many but also a company favorite to Hoyo themselves
This banner is what started the memes of Ayaka wanting to viciously kill any new 5 star girl the traveler came in contact with like Nilou 🤣🤣 she is the true god of eternity
I started play genshin during this time. Everyone was shocked when Ayaka's banner is 240 days banner yet hoyo give me my first qiqi & still don't get her at the end of the 2.6. I do have her now but still with that long amount of time & not getting ayaka is totally pure bad luck.
I remember this cause I was just like "welp..." And just said hello to Ayaka every day that I logged in. I felt bad for the Mihoyo because of the reason for the delay, but Ayaka just being THERE for so long that it was funny
i returned to play genshin again a bit before the 240 days ayaka banner (my cousin got my acc to ar16 so we could play in co op. but played by myself on mobile 6 months or so before and got to ar9). it was like after ayato's banner finished and ayaka's banner still had the 20 days countdown i think. i was a bit confused why the banner was so long but then i figured that it had to do with covid so yeah.. i thought at the time it was normal for an update to last 4-5 weeks until genshin announced they'll go back to the 6 week update schedule
I'm just happy that we all survived the pandemic. The Players, Mihoyo and Genshin Impact. ☺️
They also gave us coins for our Serenetea Pot during that time. To this day, I haven't spend all of the coins Mihoyo gave to me. It's still at 70k.
chill live, love watching it in the morning !
❤❤
The Ayaka Eternal Banner that lasted for bloody forever.... As in an extra week.
But boy oh boy we were nervous during that week.
Ah yes the only reason I was able to get mistsplitter as an f2p
those years was fuckecd up for alot of ppl it is what it is. i did not even start playing at that time
2:11 to be fair, PlayStation and Xbox was dealing with the chip shortage drastically decreasing their production and sales. I’m pretty sure every console sold record lows except Nintendo.
Oh so that’s why Yandere Ayaka meme exists
As much as I want to upload my HSR entry, my internet here is quiet poop right now because of the on going storm.. Best of luck to all ^^.. and make Bran laugh because HSR consists a bunch of memes in lore alone xD
I got my ayaka thanks to the eternity banner haha
Not gonna lie I really wish I was playing genshin when this happened
Mee too I want Ayaka man😅😊
The ayaka banner was infuriating, because my first single pull after that banner was Yelan, and I didn't get ayaka until a YEAR after
I live in Sweden and we were quarantined for a little bit
Funny thing is I stopped playing at the beginning of 2022 until about October that year. So this is news to me lol
This is just the beginning.
Of what
This is cool. i watched this yesterday
wow you look different now 😂im coming back to genshin it been a while
the fact i joined at this time LMAO
I somehow missed this entire thing despite already playing genshin back then
Honestly that would’ve been the easiest way to C6 Ayaka 😂
this is how i got c6 ayaka as f2p
4:55 you just realized? lol
I didn't care about ayaka or yelan so I didn't know about the 240 days till I saw videos lol
been expecting for some Rawfler vids reaction though
I must be thankful for bannertime extension
-Because I could secure Mistsplitter 2/2 after gotten Unforged 2x 💀
13:14 this is even funnier because ayaka’s element is cyro😂
if i started the game at that time, i might have a c2 ayaka perhaps by now...
This happened when I first started genshin at 2.6😅
