The trick here to "everybody is a fighter" is that almost every playable character has a Vision, and while that doesn't magically turn you into a fighter, the same set of qualities that lead to somebody finding themselves with a Vision pretty much universally lead to that person also being willing, able, and inclined to train in at least basic self-defense and basic magical technique. (This correlation does not work in reverse; there are more criteria. And getting a Vision is not the only road to manipulating energies, but the alternatives either tend to require greater than a mortal lifetime to see any real results or have side effects which absolutely suck. (There might be horrible downsides to Visions too, but if so they're a lot less obvious.))
Visions also seem to grant an advantage in terms of physical ability if some early NPC dialog is to be believed Vision's main negative point is that the "ambition" that's associated with the Vision is basically stored in it, if the bearer is deprived of it, they'll lose the ambition, along with memories associated with it
Furina's demo is full of teasers. In the swing scene, she's mimicing the archons of every other nation (Sumeru, Inazuma, Mondstadt and Liyue in order). The scenes she's directing (with Childe, Neuvilette, etc) are full of opposites (Lynette being the outgoing lead performer, Lyney being the assistant in the tank, Neuvilette being the arrested criminal, Childe running from a fight, etc). The final fight is a nod towards stage fighting. If you pay attention, no one is actually hitting one another (just like actors are taught how to make blows look real without hurting their acting partner).
Also the scenes she's directing represents scenes from archon quests too, like the way they're holding neuvillette is exactly the same as how fatui agents hold traveler when signora was taking venti's gnosis.
i like it when people just fell in love with Arlecchino. I mean FATHER Arlecchino. you actually can get some info regarding her in Inazuma and Liyue world quests. she is the head of an orphanage called House of the Hearth, the rumors from those world quests implied she is raising child soldiers in that orphanage. Lyney, Lynette and Freminet are also children from House of the Hearth. there are more of them. others already explained about the orphanage so i'll tell you about her unique eyes. if you observed enough you also noticed that there's a lot of "glitching" in her video. it's intentional. she is in all meaning is "a glitch" in Teyvat system just like her eyes. the "blackhole" you said is not a blackhole, that's a moon. crimson moon. Her actual power has a tie to that crimson moon.
@@ItsJeradaShe is by far one of the most interesting characters in the game. Other interesting playables for me would be Neuvilette and Kaeya due to their lore (and potential future lore for Kaeya).
I loved that subtle detail that Arlecchino is a walking anomaly, an existence that shouldn't exist. She's carrying a non-existent bloodline that's been wiped off Teyvat. (Not a spoiler)
Not sure if this was obvious yet, but yes you can actually explore underwater in fontaine. In fact, 50% of fontaine is underwater. You dont run out of breath or anything, it feels like a completely different world.
I really enjoyed your reactions to these demos! You pay attention to the details and remember the little stuff! Really cool! You HAVE to watch the Character Teasers now, to see more of each character's personality! Don't worry, there are less teasers than demos. since only five stars get them.
Watched him break down Arlecchino’s video and guessed right on parts of her lore is crazy. But we have the same top 4 ! Alre, Clorinde, and Kinich are my favs and Candace’s Demo OST is MY FAVORITE!
I can't wait for you to react to all the version trailers and character teasers! lovee your reactions and your inputs! you're not far off with your theory on Arlecchino
Navia is kinda supposed to be more of a French/Italian mix than British. Fontaine _is_ partially inspired by Britain, but the only British-coded playable character so far is Wriothesley. Xianyun isn't a woman who can turn into a bird, she's a bird who turns into a woman. Adepti are animals that have achieved enlightenment, and in doing so gained magical powers, including the power to take a human form. The thing Chiori picked up at the end of her demo was a decoration that had fallen off Navia's outfit. She sighed because she realised she would have to fix it. Yes you can get Kinich if you start playing now. He's my current main and is one of my top 3 most fun characters to play. But he'll be gone by the end of patch 5.0. I'll second whoever said you should react to the version trailers next.
who gon tell him about the VA's of Kinich and Ajaw. If you are playing genshin most probably you are into anime too and they both share quite an iconic duo's voice actor
In Furina's trailer, everything is the opposite of what it is in reality: she protects the champion from the most harmless creature, Childe runs away from the fight, Nouvellette is arrested, Furina is filmed Chatrelotte, Fremenette drowns on dry land, the warden goes through a justice duel, Lenny is an assistant and Lynette is a magician. And on the swing, Furina parodies other Archons: Venti's lyre, Raiden's meditation pose, Morax's money.
You should watch the character teasers and the version trailers and animated shorts, you'll have more about the lore in itself (especially for some parts you wonder, like why furina wants the trials to be dramatic and kinda fun) Also, something really cool about Furina's demo is that when she seem to film some scenes like tartaglia getting chased or neuvilette being arrested, she actually recreates real scenes of the story, it's different characters in different places but it's the same "action"
Here is short information for non Genshin player, world in Genshin called Teyvat, in Teyvat have 7 different nation correspond to each element and properties, each nation have different story and different mission 1. Monstadt, Nation of Freedom, element is Anemo (Air) 2. Liyue, Nation of Contract, element is Geo (Earth) 3. Inazuma, Nation of Eternity, element is Electro (Thunder/Electricity) 4. Sumeru, Nation of Wisdom, element is Dendro (Plant/Greenery) 5. Fontaine, Nation of Justice, element is Hydro (Water) 6. Natlan, Nation of war, element is Pyro (Fire) 7. Sneznaya, Nation of Love? (still not conferm), element is Cryo (Ice)
SO glad it looks like whoever has been falsely claiming reactions to Furina's demo stopped. Also, when a character from a completely different region than the main one randomly shows, it means they were likely released due to an ingame event. Lantern Rite is a yearly event where new Liyue characters are released for example. Anyway, here's some stuff I find neat about these demos: (Alhaitham) The fandom likes referring to this group of friends as 4ggravate, based on a reaction that involves Dendro and Electro since it has 3 Dendro people and 1 Electro person. (Dehya) The Aaru village that Dehya was protecting is where Candace lives and what she protects almost 24/7. (Mika) He was part of the expedition that took away most of the Knights of Favonius and all their horses [insert Cavalry Captain Kaeya doesn't have a horse joke] (Kaveh) You can actually see some of his work ingame! Of course, his magnum opus the Palace of Alcazarzaray that was shown in the demo is one of them. He also helped with the infrastructure in Port Ormos. And the floating toolbox he uses is something he also made himself. (Baizhu) He's been introduced waaaayy back then, in the same arc Qiqi has been introduced in. So a bunch of older players were so happy to see him finally become playable. (Kirara) She was literally a normal cat who turned into a yokai(nekomata specifically) that can change her appearance however she pleased. (Lyney) His demo and teaser were mass disliked by the Korean fanbase bc they felt he was too much of a flirty femboy for their liking (Lynette) Some people thought that Lynette was a robot bc of how she acted but it turns out she was just an introvert who was open about how much she doesn't want to socialize with most people (Freminet) He's actually not biologically related to the magician twins, but they see each other as family regardless. It's also their hands that show up at 0:29:33 (Neuvillette) He actually stopped the rain, not time. The demo makes a point of this by showing the birds flying through the unmoving raindrops unbothered. He's a very water-oriented guy. (Wriothesley) He's kinda implied to be colorblind so he might actually think he's wearing black and blue instead of black and red so he thinks he's keeping on theme with the ice element he wields. (Charlotte) She's one of 5? characters who appreciate Cyno's dad jokes instead of groaning or glaring at him. btw Cyno only really jokes when you get to know him more (Furina) When she was swinging, she was actually imitating the other archons. The color of the lights depending on who she's pretending to be. The Dendro Archon just swings in general. The Anemo Archon uses a lyre. The Electro Archon does the pose she does at 0:52:45. and The Geo Archon had an infinite money glitch and he was very very generous with his infinite money. (Navia) Her organization focuses on helping people in need and on solving crimes in ways that the police in Fontaine usually couldn't (Chevreuse) People were actually impressed by how Chevreuse managed to keep her long hair from splitting at the half like how many other girls in Genshin do. You can only see it subtly splitting in three in some animations and then at the end of one, her polearm splits her hair instead of going through it. (Gaming) He lights up like in the demo during one of his idle animations, and the lights change color depending on the time of day! (Xianyun) The reason her demo showed Ganyu and Shenhe was because they were her disciples and pretty much her adoptive daughters. I think it's sweet. Also a lot of adepti have pretty good sight and hearing, especially demonstrated by Xiao who can hear people call for help from all over Liyue. (Chiori) The other playable characters who show up in her demo are wearing clothes made by her. She also knew Kirara from when she was still a normal cat. (Arlecchino) She's not wearing gloves. She actually has blackened arms and hands, and other markings and patterns on them. (Sethos) When he closes his eyes at 1:42:30, a cutscene from Cyno's 2nd Story Quest (where Sethos first gets introduced) plays in fast forward. He's also the first playable Genshin guy to hold his bow vertically in aiming mode. (Clorinde) The monster she was hunting was a type of hilichurl you could encounter ingame. Their descriptions note that they're loners who are particularly smart for their kind. They wander around and sometimes help out at hilichurl camps before setting off on their own again. (Sigewinne) She's actually the same species as the blue creature who helped her find the flowers. They're called Melusines, and Neuvillette cares for them like they're his daughters. Melusines perceive some things differently and they tend to make either weird-looking or weird-tasting food and drinks. (Emilie) Despite her demo's focus on water, her gameplay actually likes it way more when you have pyro on your team instead of hydro. She's also abnormally taller than other characters who use the same model type (medium female). To the point that she's taller than the shortest medium male type, Cyno. (Kachina) She's one of the characters you can get for free without a limited event, like Collei, Xiangling and Barbara! I like climbing up and down with her in Natlan. (Mualani) The pink pufferfish thing she wears and throws is like an inflatable suit that she sells so that people could float in emergencies. (Kinich) This demo uses the Japanese dub since the English voice actors are currently on strike (which iirc is to make companies legally promise not to use ai voice imitations in their games)
Quick reply to this for now. They have not stopped falsely claiming the Furina music. I have filed a dispute with them on TH-cam since the video got copyright claimed. But I still wanted to put the video out for everyone regardless.
Natlan is by far, by far, the best exploration they ever done. Its the only area i 100% almost without any guides, because its very well done. The story is cool too, on the same level as sumeru and fontaine (that are really good, way above the others). You should react to all the version trailers, thats a good watch. Also Knich voice actor is sasuke and the little guy is naruto (for japanese).
I feel like rather than fontaine being dark, id call it more..cinematic.. the story kinda feels like a theatrical movie (well make sense given the setting, a whole court that is also an opera house?). It also gave me..ace attorney vibes. Its a bit like penacony but instead of it being dream themed its theatre themed. There are characters with darker themes around them like arlecchino but the thing is her backstory and why she is the way she is, wasn't developped in the main archon quest, though she was involved, but she didn't do as much as we thought she would given ger importance, it was more developped through her own story quest. As a whole fontaine is so loved not bc ita darker though there are a few darker themes behind, but bc its really artistically well written and everything comes together at the end REALLY well, and every character has good writing.(Esp Furina and Neuvilette)
When Furina is on the swing she impersonate all the other archon, you can see it with the light color (green=dendro, teal/cyan=anemo, purple=electro and yellow=geo)
So about Arleccino's lore you guessed almost everything, the House of the Heart is a orphanage that she was part of as a child and ran by Mother, but by that time the children were trained to be spies and assassins and learn to do all kinds of dirty work for the Fatui, and the children that underperfomed were handed to Dottore who conducted terrible experiments on them. The orphanage also had a king-of-the-hill type of training were they were to select a "King" among the children, so they were instructed by Mother to kill each other until only one child stands, and so Arleccino as a child killed all the other children, her best friend and Mother included, thus she became Father. She abolished those pratices from The House of the Hearth right after but still trains and uses the children as spies and for dirty work, Lyney and Lynette are from there aswell.
Yeah She is important, very much. Her name is Arlecchino, aka The Knave. She's from a long lost ancient bloodline known as Crimson Moon. She's strong both lore and game wise. Currently the top DPS in the game. So strong that they desinged a scyth like weapon just for her.
Fontaine has underwater exploration and it's really great the swimming animation is so smooth, the scenery etc.. it's really refreshing n immersive experience to get in fontaine so I suggest that to experience it for ur selve.
1:40:11 you should watch the animated short that genshin put out! It’s lore about the House of the Hearth and Arlecchino’s history. It’s called ‘The Song Burning in Embers’ and it’s also animated by the same studio who does Demon Slayer
So fun fact is that Navia and Chevreuse were released in the same update, so some people were jokingly calling it the "America update" because we finally got playable characters with guns lol. Previously we'd only seen enemies with guns so people were pretty hyped for it
yeah people tend to say that Dr Ratio is the Alhaitham from Star Rail and Kaveh is the Aventurine (with a pinch of Tartaglia in the mix) but there is an NPC in Genshin who is literally the Dr. He is a marble statue with a face similar to the Dr statues and even has the same style of clothing and color scheme
@@nadjamywife the NPC? his quest is on Petrichor the isolated island below the Fontaine Plateau between Sumeru and Liyue, his quest is very cinematic and interactive
Part 3 let's goooo~ 9:25 my guy, Dehya is the Lion and Candace is the Hunter. The green eyed wolf is the npc's mercenary group name... He's reminding himself (a wolf) not to mess with them. The item Kaveh is holding is a briefcase, not a book... Baizhu is from Liyue. We actually see him in the Liyue archon quest. Kinich is on banner right now, so yes, you can play him. Ajaw (pronounced as ah-how) isn't the dragon he was fighting. He's a contracted saurian. Kinich contracted him in exchange for his own body, hence why Ajaw wants him deadge, so he can finally be free and have a proper body.
Its funny how those old genshin player forgot about Dr. Baizhu like brother how can you forgot Bubu Pharmacy, BUBU Pharmacy who can fogot that name? Anyway you meet Baizhu in Liyue quest so if you've done it.
I'd actually recommend watching the collected miscellany for characters you're interested in, it's a brief video narrating the background and in-game abilities.
2:05:14 yes you can play as him if you have enough wishes to pull right now. he will be in the banner for at least 17days to come. he is by far one of the most unique character in term of playstyle. i love him so much, i pulled both him and his weapon. his "highlight" is an ability unique to Natlan characters called "Nightsoul Blessings". exploring places with him is extremely fun thing to do, the fact that he does big number effortlessly also helps. you mentioned silver wolf bcs of the "retro game aesthetic", while SW is a support Kinich is a main DPS. a good one at that. about the retro games; i can only remember Snake (the first one with the moving yellow lines), Pacman, possibly mix between Mario and Sonic, then every other JRPG titles (made me remember Fire Emblem, old school Zelda idk why), and lastly every fighting game (like Mortal Kombat, Street Fighters etc)
more like Dr. Ratio is a blue-Alhaitham. Alhaitham appearance and release pre-date Dr. Ratio in awhile. Alhaitham is based on a real life counterpart, a Muslim Mathmatecian and Astronomer named Ibn Al-Haytham who found the concept of Camera Obscura which is the basis for ALL modern camera we have today. his attack animations are all about mirrors and flickering lights bcs of that. He is also very important character to Sumeru Arhon Quest even though he doesn't act like it. The Archon Quest literally will fall apart without him.
55:24 kinda funny seeing your reaction to Furina's trailer bcs at that point in time the Achon Quest was about to hit the peak. the trailer did its job brilliantly which is confusing you from what is actually happening in Fontaine. Her trailer is very different than her teaser video. all i can say is that the trailer's title talked about "the world is a stage". everything about Fontaine is just a "play" a little help, when Furina swings and the background changed colors... she actually mimicking the other Archons. one she mimic Venti by holding a lyre, then Ei with posing calmly and crossed one leg like Ei does in her meditative state, then Nahida and lastly mimicking Zhongli by throwing mora bcs he's the one that can produce mora in Teyvat. every citizens displayed that watched her also changed in costumes and people matching the region they representing.
woah you actually guessed arlechinnos lore pretty accurately. shes part of a villain organization called the fatui, but she also owns an orphanage in fontaine called the house of the hearth. the kids in the orphanage basically work under her and act as her spies for the fatui. she did grow up in this orphanage and killed the previous owner, taking her place as owner of the orphanage and member of the fatui. and yes lyney, lynette and freminet are a part of the house.
Lyney, Lynette and Freminet are all siblings; at the end of Freminet's demo when he mentioned the hearth, is the orphanage they live at. (Lyney and Lynette are bio siblings)
If you've ever seen Naruto but Kinich's voice is Sasuke's voice and the pixelated dragon's voice is Naruto's, that's why you put them in Japanese despite being the English account of Genshin
Actually impressed how close you got with Arlecchino just from her trailer nice job her teaser is also satisfying & gives you some insight! Kinich's banner started last week! So much fun to play + makes exploration fun & easy with his skill. Ajaw is actually his Saurian companion (Natlan dragon companions) & his voicelines with Kinich are hilarious Would love to see you react to all the teasers esp for your favorites. I'm a Childe stan so he's naturally #1 but I love Furina, Arlecchino, Kinich, and Neuvillette
A good trick to remember Arlecchino's name is to know that's it's Italian for Harlequin. It's pronounced almost the same, just without the H and an o at the end: Ar-le-KI-no (caps denote stressed syllable).
34:30 as for Neuvilette, i'm sure you've noticed how his accompanying music is either has choir or some kind of church organ in it. his visual also "speak of someone high position and important". just his music alone speaks of "Divine". he's a character that is also important to Fontaine Archon Quest. he is someone that is on par with Gods. after the main quest he is basically above Gods and Archons lore-wise. he wasn't stopping time but he was stopping rain and send it back to the sky. the visual with him talking about "sins" and people floating is related to the main quest and the nature of Fontainians. Neuvilette speaking about judging the future is tied to who he is as a character. i can't spoil more if you want to do the Archon Quest but he is a judge that isn't just judging humanity but also a judge that will prosecute Gods if needed "in the future".
Neuvillete can control all water in the world including the ones inside all living things any type of fluid that has H²0 mix to it he can manipulate it... He absolutely hates oil and anything cooked with it lmao There is in fact a person who can manipulate time in the game they're not playable
U didn't catch the idea of those char trailers :v For Neuvillette: at the last second u said he watching the galaxy while there was the huge crak in the sky and u not even border For Furina: u saw her throwing the money , but the real thing is when she threw her hat all the light and time and the music focused on that And many others 😢 I do like watching u react geshin content though
Meh, sorry, not my kind of reaction. Waaaay too much pauses. I know some are into deep analysis, and sure, why not. But when you spoil your first impression and mess up the pace with constant pauses, it's a waste. And honestly, what strongly annoy me is how disrespectful to the original material the interruptions are. If you want to keep it your way, I'd suggest you do a "first viewing", to at least record that virginal impression, and then carry on with the analysis. Moreover, if you do, I can guarantee you'll see the views skip most of this second part, despite it's much more "work" for you.
kinich is inspired by 8-bit games and natlan is the copy of pokemon and palworld. i should be happy but have to say devs are choosing the easiest way possible instead of being creative.
The trick here to "everybody is a fighter" is that almost every playable character has a Vision, and while that doesn't magically turn you into a fighter, the same set of qualities that lead to somebody finding themselves with a Vision pretty much universally lead to that person also being willing, able, and inclined to train in at least basic self-defense and basic magical technique.

Vision's main negative point is that the "ambition" that's associated with the Vision is basically stored in it, if the bearer is deprived of it, they'll lose the ambition, along with memories associated with it
@@ZenoDLCyeah the reason why Inazuma was practically dead when the decree was going on
@@ZenoDLC unless they're a xian! because visions are based on xianxia novels.
Delusion is one of the alternative. And it might cost the life of the user.

The Anemo Archon uses a lyre. The Electro Archon does the pose she does at 0:52:45. and The Geo Archon had an infinite money glitch and he was very very generous with his infinite money.
(Navia) Her organization focuses on helping people in need and on solving crimes in ways that the police in Fontaine usually couldn't
(Chevreuse) People were actually impressed by how Chevreuse managed to keep her long hair from splitting at the half like how many other girls in Genshin do. You can only see it subtly splitting in three in some animations and then at the end of one, her polearm splits her hair instead of going through it.
(Gaming) He lights up like in the demo during one of his idle animations, and the lights change color depending on the time of day!
(Xianyun) The reason her demo showed Ganyu and Shenhe was because they were her disciples and pretty much her adoptive daughters. I think it's sweet.
Also a lot of adepti have pretty good sight and hearing, especially demonstrated by Xiao who can hear people call for help from all over Liyue.
(Chiori) The other playable characters who show up in her demo are wearing clothes made by her. She also knew Kirara from when she was still a normal cat.
(Arlecchino) She's not wearing gloves. She actually has blackened arms and hands, and other markings and patterns on them.
(Sethos) When he closes his eyes at 1:42:30, a cutscene from Cyno's 2nd Story Quest (where Sethos first gets introduced) plays in fast forward. He's also the first playable Genshin guy to hold his bow vertically in aiming mode.
(Clorinde) The monster she was hunting was a type of hilichurl you could encounter ingame. Their descriptions note that they're loners who are particularly smart for their kind. They wander around and sometimes help out at hilichurl camps before setting off on their own again.
(Sigewinne) She's actually the same species as the blue creature who helped her find the flowers. They're called Melusines, and Neuvillette cares for them like they're his daughters. Melusines perceive some things differently and they tend to make either weird-looking or weird-tasting food and drinks.
(Emilie) Despite her demo's focus on water, her gameplay actually likes it way more when you have pyro on your team instead of hydro. She's also abnormally taller than other characters who use the same model type (medium female). To the point that she's taller than the shortest medium male type, Cyno.
(Kachina) She's one of the characters you can get for free without a limited event, like Collei, Xiangling and Barbara! I like climbing up and down with her in Natlan.
(Mualani) The pink pufferfish thing she wears and throws is like an inflatable suit that she sells so that people could float in emergencies.
(Kinich) This demo uses the Japanese dub since the English voice actors are currently on strike (which iirc is to make companies legally promise not to use ai voice imitations in their games)
Quick reply to this for now. They have not stopped falsely claiming the Furina music. I have filed a dispute with them on TH-cam since the video got copyright claimed. But I still wanted to put the video out for everyone regardless.
@@ItsJerada Ah, I see! First of all screw them I wish they'd use all that audacity on something actually useful. And good luck on the dispute!
Natlan is by far, by far, the best exploration they ever done.
Its the only area i 100% almost without any guides, because its very well done.
The story is cool too, on the same level as sumeru and fontaine (that are really good, way above the others).
You should react to all the version trailers, thats a good watch.
Also Knich voice actor is sasuke and the little guy is naruto (for japanese).
I did not realize the VA's. That's awesome, I loved Naruto & Shippuden!
Dude: whats with that scale behind Neuvillette?
Me: Don't mess with the Oratrice Mécanique d'Analyse Cardinale (the french classes paid off there lol)
(According to the judgement)
I feel like rather than fontaine being dark, id call it more..cinematic.. the story kinda feels like a theatrical movie (well make sense given the setting, a whole court that is also an opera house?).
It also gave me..ace attorney vibes. Its a bit like penacony but instead of it being dream themed its theatre themed.
There are characters with darker themes around them like arlecchino but the thing is her backstory and why she is the way she is, wasn't developped in the main archon quest, though she was involved, but she didn't do as much as we thought she would given ger importance, it was more developped through her own story quest.
As a whole fontaine is so loved not bc ita darker though there are a few darker themes behind, but bc its really artistically well written and everything comes together at the end REALLY well, and every character has good writing.(Esp Furina and Neuvilette)
duuude i literally just watched your other genshin and hsr reactions and refreshed my youtube feed to see this fresh upload
bless 🙏🙏
When Furina is on the swing she impersonate all the other archon, you can see it with the light color (green=dendro, teal/cyan=anemo, purple=electro and yellow=geo)
So about Arleccino's lore you guessed almost everything, the House of the Heart is a orphanage that she was part of as a child and ran by Mother, but by that time the children were trained to be spies and assassins and learn to do all kinds of dirty work for the Fatui, and the children that underperfomed were handed to Dottore who conducted terrible experiments on them.
The orphanage also had a king-of-the-hill type of training were they were to select a "King" among the children, so they were instructed by Mother to kill each other until only one child stands, and so Arleccino as a child killed all the other children, her best friend and Mother included, thus she became Father. She abolished those pratices from The House of the Hearth right after but still trains and uses the children as spies and for dirty work, Lyney and Lynette are from there aswell.
Don't forget Freminet as well haha
wtf r u so on point w that arllechino theoryTT-TT
Yeah She is important, very much. Her name is Arlecchino, aka The Knave. She's from a long lost ancient bloodline known as Crimson Moon. She's strong both lore and game wise. Currently the top DPS in the game. So strong that they desinged a scyth like weapon just for her.
Her demo got me the most interested in the game again.
@@ItsJerada IKR? I just love her. So cute
Fontaine has underwater exploration and it's really great the swimming animation is so smooth, the scenery etc.. it's really refreshing n immersive experience to get in fontaine so I suggest that to experience it for ur selve.
That sounds like a lot of fun! I remember always drowning in Monstadt and Liyue 😂
1:40:11 you should watch the animated short that genshin put out! It’s lore about the House of the Hearth and Arlecchino’s history. It’s called ‘The Song Burning in Embers’ and it’s also animated by the same studio who does Demon Slayer
Ufotable is animating this? 👀 It has to be a masterpiece! Is there a playlist or place to find all the Genshin Animated Shorts?
Cyno is no-nonsense and dedicated when he's on the clock, but takes full advantage of his time-off to let off steam and be a goof-ball.
So fun fact is that Navia and Chevreuse were released in the same update, so some people were jokingly calling it the "America update" because we finally got playable characters with guns lol. Previously we'd only seen enemies with guns so people were pretty hyped for it
yeah people tend to say that Dr Ratio is the Alhaitham from Star Rail and Kaveh is the Aventurine (with a pinch of Tartaglia in the mix)
but there is an NPC in Genshin who is literally the Dr. He is a marble statue with a face similar to the Dr statues and even has the same style of clothing and color scheme
genshin models so ugly and skinny compared to other hoyo gacha
@@PavelPuff go cry in the corner Genshin anti
Oh where can I find it exactly? :0
@@nadjamywife the NPC? his quest is on Petrichor the isolated island below the Fontaine Plateau between Sumeru and Liyue, his quest is very cinematic and interactive
@@Keiki-kun Thanks a lot
U can indeed play as kinich if u start playing now... he's in the current banner
Bro I really love your reaction too much ❤
Kinich is in the game right now he's banner has 17 days left until he's gone so it's the perfect time for you to try him
Part 3 let's goooo~
9:25 my guy, Dehya is the Lion and Candace is the Hunter. The green eyed wolf is the npc's mercenary group name... He's reminding himself (a wolf) not to mess with them.
The item Kaveh is holding is a briefcase, not a book...
Baizhu is from Liyue. We actually see him in the Liyue archon quest.
Kinich is on banner right now, so yes, you can play him. Ajaw (pronounced as ah-how) isn't the dragon he was fighting. He's a contracted saurian. Kinich contracted him in exchange for his own body, hence why Ajaw wants him deadge, so he can finally be free and have a proper body.
cant wait for you to react to version trailers!!!!
Kinich is on the banner for the next 17 days, if you want him, run and get your primo grind on! And good luck if you do!
YEEEES! ARLECCHINO IS THE BEST CHARACTER TO ME! She is crazy powerfull and so important in the story! Waiting for her release was sooo long and good!
kinich and ajaw share the same jp vas as sasuke and naruto
Since you like Arrlechino so much you should watch her animated short. It’s about her backstory. The animation is epic!
"His entire demeanor gives 'i'm over powered'"
Yeah.
Its funny how those old genshin player forgot about Dr. Baizhu like brother how can you forgot Bubu Pharmacy, BUBU Pharmacy who can fogot that name? Anyway you meet Baizhu in Liyue quest so if you've done it.
I'd actually recommend watching the collected miscellany for characters you're interested in, it's a brief video narrating the background and in-game abilities.
Take a shot everytime he says “bro”
😂 can't help it anymore
55:58 'best time of her life', ah yes those words have never been more wrong
Great reaction!
57:00 she’s copying the other archons, with the last swing being a reference to the archon who created Genshin’s currency
2:05:14 yes you can play as him if you have enough wishes to pull right now. he will be in the banner for at least 17days to come. he is by far one of the most unique character in term of playstyle. i love him so much, i pulled both him and his weapon.
his "highlight" is an ability unique to Natlan characters called "Nightsoul Blessings".
exploring places with him is extremely fun thing to do, the fact that he does big number effortlessly also helps. you mentioned silver wolf bcs of the "retro game aesthetic", while SW is a support Kinich is a main DPS. a good one at that.
about the retro games; i can only remember Snake (the first one with the moving yellow lines), Pacman, possibly mix between Mario and Sonic, then every other JRPG titles (made me remember Fire Emblem, old school Zelda idk why), and lastly every fighting game (like Mortal Kombat, Street Fighters etc)
Yo, those retro games had memories coming back to me. That was such a fun demo to watch!
more like Dr. Ratio is a blue-Alhaitham. Alhaitham appearance and release pre-date Dr. Ratio in awhile.
Alhaitham is based on a real life counterpart, a Muslim Mathmatecian and Astronomer named Ibn Al-Haytham who found the concept of Camera Obscura which is the basis for ALL modern camera we have today. his attack animations are all about mirrors and flickering lights bcs of that.
He is also very important character to Sumeru Arhon Quest even though he doesn't act like it. The Archon Quest literally will fall apart without him.
ratio and alhaitham both look like su from honkai impact
if u didn't know chiori actually designed the clothes of Lynsey, Lynette, freminet, and navia which is super cool
Hip hop, punk jazz, break dance, reggae, surfing, Natlan has it all.
All the animated shorts would be nice.
55:24 kinda funny seeing your reaction to Furina's trailer bcs at that point in time the Achon Quest was about to hit the peak. the trailer did its job brilliantly which is confusing you from what is actually happening in Fontaine. Her trailer is very different than her teaser video. all i can say is that the trailer's title talked about "the world is a stage". everything about Fontaine is just a "play"
a little help, when Furina swings and the background changed colors... she actually mimicking the other Archons. one she mimic Venti by holding a lyre, then Ei with posing calmly and crossed one leg like Ei does in her meditative state, then Nahida and lastly mimicking Zhongli by throwing mora bcs he's the one that can produce mora in Teyvat. every citizens displayed that watched her also changed in costumes and people matching the region they representing.
Baizhu is from Liyue by the way and its pronounced "Chichi" for qiqi
I thought he would say "my brain is tremblingggggg" 😂
Betelgeuse reference? I love Re Zero.
remember navia is doing all that in heels
Kinich is on banner right now so if you want him I'ts the moment 😁
woah you actually guessed arlechinnos lore pretty accurately. shes part of a villain organization called the fatui, but she also owns an orphanage in fontaine called the house of the hearth. the kids in the orphanage basically work under her and act as her spies for the fatui. she did grow up in this orphanage and killed the previous owner, taking her place as owner of the orphanage and member of the fatui. and yes lyney, lynette and freminet are a part of the house.
I waited for you fontaine Characters reaction 😭
Lyney, Lynette and Freminet are all siblings; at the end of Freminet's demo when he mentioned the hearth, is the orphanage they live at. (Lyney and Lynette are bio siblings)
ARLECCHINO THE BEST FR❤❤❤
schadenfreunde means enjoyment of someone elses misfortune, like laughing at someone tripping over 38:15
Yeah you can play as kinich if you start to play right now, he is fun
If you've ever seen Naruto but Kinich's voice is Sasuke's voice and the pixelated dragon's voice is Naruto's, that's why you put them in Japanese despite being the English account of Genshin
Actually impressed how close you got with Arlecchino just from her trailer nice job her teaser is also satisfying & gives you some insight!
Kinich's banner started last week! So much fun to play + makes exploration fun & easy with his skill. Ajaw is actually his Saurian companion (Natlan dragon companions) & his voicelines with Kinich are hilarious
Would love to see you react to all the teasers esp for your favorites. I'm a Childe stan so he's naturally #1 but I love Furina, Arlecchino, Kinich, and Neuvillette
YURRRRRRRR W UPLOAD🔥🔥🔥
"Early bird" ahh comment💀
“Lyeney from Fontana” LMAO😭
Kinich is fun to play, and he does big damage😊
Arlecchino aka the knave aka Father aka fourth of the fatui harbingers
A good trick to remember Arlecchino's name is to know that's it's Italian for Harlequin. It's pronounced almost the same, just without the H and an o at the end: Ar-le-KI-no (caps denote stressed syllable).
The scale is called the oratrice mecganique d'analyse cadinale :)
You might wanna start playing now since kinich banner gonna be gone soon
I should be starting by the end of this week. I'm looking forward to playing!
Kinich is the newest and current character, you can get him right now and he's very strong
If you are interested in a character's playstyle you can check out the character's miscellany, it shows ingame footage of their abilities etc.
This is Definitely not the final video for Character demos because genshin releases a new character every month soo
how about reacting to the burst animations? i made a video about it but there are tons out there
bruh u nailed it
You should watch the version trailers please omg
34:30 as for Neuvilette, i'm sure you've noticed how his accompanying music is either has choir or some kind of church organ in it. his visual also "speak of someone high position and important". just his music alone speaks of "Divine".
he's a character that is also important to Fontaine Archon Quest. he is someone that is on par with Gods. after the main quest he is basically above Gods and Archons lore-wise. he wasn't stopping time but he was stopping rain and send it back to the sky. the visual with him talking about "sins" and people floating is related to the main quest and the nature of Fontainians.
Neuvilette speaking about judging the future is tied to who he is as a character. i can't spoil more if you want to do the Archon Quest but he is a judge that isn't just judging humanity but also a judge that will prosecute Gods if needed "in the future".
This man sounds like he's no joke at all. I'd love to see a lot of these characters interacting with each other in the story.
Would love to see you react to the teasers :D
Kanich is on the banners right now if you want him
You should see all of arlecchino's teasers
Kinich (last character) is available right now
Neuvillete can control all water in the world including the ones inside all living things any type of fluid that has H²0 mix to it he can manipulate it... He absolutely hates oil and anything cooked with it lmao
There is in fact a person who can manipulate time in the game they're not playable
Fontana Montana
U didn't catch the idea of those char trailers :v
For Neuvillette: at the last second u said he watching the galaxy while there was the huge crak in the sky and u not even border
For Furina: u saw her throwing the money , but the real thing is when she threw her hat all the light and time and the music focused on that
And many others 😢
I do like watching u react geshin content though
Dehya best girl fr fr
Average Neuvillette reaction gg
I love hannah Fontana
Maybe you can react to honkai impact 3rd character demos😊 the game is also from Hoyoverse!
1:30:40 yeah, many people who reaction to Arle's demo is also confuse who it is, and yeah it's her, Arlecchino 😂
do wuthering waves pls
I'll add that to the list. Might be a a little while though.
play it bro
"Why's it gotta be dramatic?"
Play the game
2:01:45
*insert clueless emoji*
Arlecchino is an expy of Raven from Honkai, just like Natasha in Star Rail
The three are part of a shadowy organization and run an orphanage
Xilonen react plsssss
Natlan is basically Australia, but with much safer and less horrifying wildlife.
Meh, sorry, not my kind of reaction. Waaaay too much pauses.
I know some are into deep analysis, and sure, why not. But when you spoil your first impression and mess up the pace with constant pauses, it's a waste. And honestly, what strongly annoy me is how disrespectful to the original material the interruptions are.
If you want to keep it your way, I'd suggest you do a "first viewing", to at least record that virginal impression, and then carry on with the analysis.
Moreover, if you do, I can guarantee you'll see the views skip most of this second part, despite it's much more "work" for you.
kinich is inspired by 8-bit games and natlan is the copy of pokemon and palworld. i should be happy but have to say devs are choosing the easiest way possible instead of being creative.
I’m sorry but the moment I read “copy of Pokemon and Palworld” I didn’t need to read further, your opinion is instantly discarded.
@@matrixster6238 oh i forgot to mention, they copied wuwa as well, many local legend domain are literally from wuwa.
