For me, it's ZhongTao, ZhongMiko, YanTao, FuTao, XiangTao, YunTao and LoomTao.

Yoimiya is more relevant than 99% of Genshin's cast, how do you feel about that..?

Well, I'm done with act 3 of fontaine, and in the end the entire act could've been skipped. All the important information is just "cheld seems to have escaped through a pipe filled with water". The prison also seems to have been designed to shill yelan as much as possible. Doing this without some sort of movement character must be literal torture. The fact that there's not a single chest or anything in there also feels extra stingy.

Chasca thread averted.

"Netflix and chill" with Furina!

I am sorry i jobbed...........

Nuggets are not erotic.

>>527271068
Low quality quests is what really killed this game for casuals

sausage and nuggets

"Netflix and chill" with Furina!

>>527271068
Yeah. Meropide is the worst part of the game by far.
I'm also starting to have Tartaglia fatigue because he appears too often.

It brings me great pleasure to know you suffer because what you believe to have been your game was stolen from you by "incel gooners".

>>527271121
true
nuggets are cute

>>527271068
In 4.1 /gig/ defended the quest by saying prison isn't supposed to be comfortable btw

Are YOU ready for Skirk to outsell Mavushitka in 4 days despite:
>no double 5 star (citlali)
>no hutao skin
>no archon wank

Damn, i can't believe Da Wei opened the floodgates for Quadrupe Amputee shit, as if Vorefags were not enough

>>527271068
there is chests though, theyre just behind puzzles

>>527271208
No one defended Meropide.

Hu Tao's stumps! Licking her round smooth stumps!

Seele! waiting room

>>527271289
Its literally one schizo.

>>527271176
I fully agree with this statement.

>>527271270
This is a falseflag for a future grudgepost btw

Again - why can't you do this yourself? 60% of fontaine exploration is diving everywhere. At least handwave it with some "oh idk the currents are too strong" shit, hoyo.

Escoffier [talking to Aether]: I want us to spend my birthday together, I will cook whatever you want and we will have a private dinner, with no one else bothering us.
Furina [talking about Neuvillette]: Anyway, we're no longer working in tandem, and it's been a long time since I've been to the Palais Mermonia. I imagine that this is good for both of us, right?
Furina [addressing Aether]: ...when I'm with you, I seem to constantly feel happy... Such an amazing feeling!

>>527271408
Just roll for Mavuika

Now that is basically confirmed phainon from HSR is the heavenly principles/the primordial one do you think phainon is related to paimon in any way considering their names are similar for no reason?

.

>>527271291
After running around during the whole act I haven't seen a single thing. Maybe they're deactivated during the archon quest.

I'm running the optimizer and it seems that Escoffier C1 buffs Ayaka more than Escoffier R1? I'm using finale btw, is it because of the diminishing returns on %ATK? I thought R1 was better?

>>527271515
>do you think phainon is related to paimon in any way considering their names are similar for no reason?
Teyvat is a simulation made by K.K for Paimon

>>527271264
Shartoji doing these basedface moments like he was Marvel, goddamn that man is pathetic.

>>527271408
you should roll Kinich for the overworld kino

>>527271068
No one liked prisonslop. Fontaine began great, then prisonslop happened and killed the momentum. Nothing was gained by that arc and you did nothing. You can still find prisonslop defenders, though.

That's a 91k DPS requirement against a boss with a 20s long stun windows, outside of that the fucker has 70% resistance to all elements.

Every fucking thing went wrong with genshin in 5.X

I try once more to get some Chiori cons, lose the 50/50 and get ANOTHER stinko now at C1

Why does everything just look like Honkslop now.

>>527271664
Literally just a C6R5 Mavuika Check, also if i'm nlt mistaken i think C6R5 Mualani can do a gorillion damage with Vapes, this is just a Natlan check

She's just not as organically popular as Arlecchino used to be.

>>527271706
why would they be talking to the abyss princess?

>>527271596
Yeah it's because of the weapon

I can't think of any character I'd use this feature on besides Nilou.

>>527271812
Didn't you get the memo anon? The entirety of Teyvat is a honkai bubble world, all our quests and struggles and suffering are so hilariously insignificant that it might as well have never happened

>>527271705
C0 Kinich is the same, probably worse without Emilie or Mavuika

>>527271596

>>527271664
>>527271960
I'm so close to quitting but unfortunately I'm too invested in Snezhnaya / Tsaritsa hype to quit

Lyney [to canonically LGBTQ Aether]: It seems we're both keenly interested in each other. Well, know that the honor is mine! Haha, relax. I couldn't ever tell lies to your mesmerizing eyes — not even if I tried!

>>527271860

You should be glad we're getting crumbles of honkino in our genslop
Could be the only thing saving our game from getting axed, in the future

I have to admit, I was hyped for Starsharts release, but I decided to wait when it was revealed to be niggas in a row bog standard turnbased shit, with no interesting mechanics to interact with. zzz looked interesting, but it was mobile only and the first combat iteration suffered greatly. I don't even take wuwa seriously.

man how come we never got an Aponia expy...

>>527272190
nah the temporary skin is just to desensitize you to the idea of having content aimed at whales in the game
this is only the beginning

>>527271664
Bennet is a huge noob trap for Mavuika against Tulpa. Pyro Traveler is actually much better.
>Can gives cinder buff to Mavuika
>Some more DMG% buff from cons

Am I the only one who wants to fuck a character instead of watching a character fuck another character?

>>527272454
Automaton is more of Skirk + Escoffier shilling. If you can give out tons of cryo app, all of its resistance will stay at 10%.

>>527272760
Most normal people do.

Fontaine is the best region btw

I thought Meropide was alright. This game is talk spam anyway, Meropide's really not much different in that regard.

>>527272760

>do you even read your own posts xis

I'd understand wanting to self insert as Pagther if he looked cool and masculine. But he's scrawnier than Lumine, shows off his belly button, and has a long braided pony tail.

>>527272760
no I'd rather bring up pagther and make up scenarios from the female's POV about loving pagther

>>527272792
Yep, the boss has -30% cryo resist after being stunned, it's the simplest out of the three in terms of mechanics, can't oneshot you, doesn't move. Only thing is that Ayaka/Skirk are a hard requirement.

>Why yes I rather self insert as the woman than as the scrawny man, I'm a straight cis male by the way

If I want to make my nugget stronger should I roll for Escoffier's constellations or hers?

>>527273113
TRVVVVKE

Here's a TRVKE for ya
Fact is, Aether is the promotional necessity. If Lumine was the poster protag the game would be perceived as for girls. The majority still overwhelmingly pick Lumine as player character when given the choice. When you install genshin you are already sold and Lumine is another cute girl, a product, that the player is given. The story also necessitates that one will be in opposition, so both can't be promotional material as the player choice.l, contrasting granblue where both protags walk the same path with minor deviations.

>>527273113
nice strawman

>>527272957
Lumine is more of a man than power bottom pagther

>>527272957
yes, I'd rather see a cute girl when I play quests

Mona? Natlan design btw

>>527273213
ZZZ and HSR announced buffs for their older characters in their previous anniversary streams... Surely they won't leave Genshin hanging, right?
The playerbase is full of people who are starting to become disillusioned when they discover their favourite 1.X and 2.X characters no longer can clear the new greedy game modes...

>>527273113
Lmaooooo pagthers really think like this lole

>>527272985
You need C3 Shenhe to unlock Shenhe's level 14 Spring Spirit Summoning: Crowned, Skill +3, and Skirk's +1 Elemental Skill to party members. That's 105% Bonus Attack.

Anyone with similar mindset? It would be an easier choice if Ayaka were too outdated for the state of the game but rn she's pretty competent thanks to Escoffier. I might have to skip Skirk for real.

uh oh loomtroon melty!

That's the problem, Skirk's C1 is dogshit garbage vs Escoffier's being one of the strongest in the game. If you're vertically investing in Skirk, it's C2 the stopping point.

>>527273428
Fontaine has the most likable cast. Stopped reading after the first line because it surely can't get better

>>527273430
I think lots of people have had similar thoughts and it's not like it's the first case where two somewhat similar DPSes in the same element put people in similar shoes
For a recent example just look at how many people who were reluctant to pull or outright skipped Arlecchino because they had Hu Tao, did the same to Mavuika because they had Arlecchino and so on
Cherish your Ayaka and save the gems for someone else

>>527273378
Sorry but I'm not even running Shenhe at all, I hate her gameplay.

normally when straight men point out hatred of self insert characters in harem games like genshin is driven by seething homofujotroons that hate straight men, your kind likes to like and pretend you only hate him because of his looks or how you are the real waifufags or whatever else

I don't play pyro dps but Tao can play plunge and Arlecchino/Mavuika's teams don't overlap that much, do they? In this case though, Ayaka and Skirk literally compete down to the last slot - Shenhe/Yelan.

yuripags are pretending they're white and fund this game again..

Aether-pags have no fucking excuse. You picked him either because you want to stare at him and his twink midriff for 1000h+ of cutscenes, OR you want to self insert as the ponytail twink. There is no other justification for picking him.

Alright now the traveler's IQ lowering aura is affecting wrio as well. I can already see it, in the end he's gonna let them go for some dubious reason.

It's not so much about the difference in playstyle but rather about people feeling reluctant to pull the new characters because "I already have a good pyro DPS"
That being said at the time of Arle's release people also mostly played her in vape teams with some level of support overlap as Hu Tao, though not with Furina and/or Xianyun

Jingliu? what are u doing here?

In the grand, waterlogged city of Fontaine, where the rain never seemed to stop, Neuvillette, the stoic Chief Justice, sat in his ornate office, staring at a stack of case files. His hydro dragon heritage made him partial to the drizzle outside, but today, it felt like the sky was mocking him. Another day of tedious trials, another evening of solitude—or so he thought.

The heavy oak door creaked open, and in swaggered Wriothesley, the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide, all smirks and leather. His coat was damp from the rain, and his dark hair clung to his forehead in a way that made Neuvillette’s usually unshakable composure flicker. Wriothesley had that effect—always had.

“Busy saving Fontaine from petty thieves again, Your Honor?” Wriothesley teased, leaning against the desk with a grin that screamed trouble. He plucked a case file from the pile and flipped through it, pretending to care. “Ooh, stolen baguettes. Thrilling.”

Neuvillette adjusted his glasses, his voice cool but betraying a hint of amusement. “If you’re here to mock my work, Duke, the door is behind you.”

Wriothesley chuckled, tossing the file back onto the desk. “Nah, I’m here to kidnap you. You’ve been cooped up in this damp courthouse too long. Let’s go somewhere… less soggy.”

Neuvillette raised an eyebrow. “Kidnap the Chief Justice? A bold crime, even for you.”

“Crime’s my specialty,” Wriothesley shot back, stepping closer. His voice dropped, playful but firm. “C’mon, Neuv. Live a little.”

Against his better judgment, Neuvillette let himself be dragged out into the rainy streets. They ended up at a tucked-away tavern near the docks, where the air smelled of salt and cheap wine. Wriothesley ordered them drinks—something strong and unpretentious—while Neuvillette sat stiffly, looking wildly out of place in his pristine robes among the rowdy sailors.

I genuinely have never met an IRL girl genshin player who are unironically interested in Aether at all kek

Ei [talking to Aether]: ... Will you remain here a while longer? With you by my side, though our mouths stay silent, my heart is at peace. Your companionship... This is one change that I shall not contest.

>>527273113
I look like the right and want to get fucked by the left :3c

>>527272171
Because people fail to understand that while yes, numbers like 140k DPS seem high, especially when compared relatively to the damage calcs posted here. However, these calcs usually use KQM standard artifacts. So if you have a top 1%, or even a top 10% build Akasha build, your characters will outperform these calcs by a lot.

>>527274078
“Loosen up,” Wriothesley said, sliding a glass toward him. “You’re not on trial here.”

Neuvillette sipped the drink, wincing at the burn. “This is… undignified.”

“That’s the point.” Wriothesley leaned in, his knee brushing Neuvillette’s under the table. “You spend all day being Fontaine’s perfect Iudex. Let me remind you you’re human. Or, well, dragon-adjacent.”

The night blurred into laughter and banter, Wriothesley’s rough charm chipping away at Neuvillette’s walls. By the time they stumbled out of the tavern, the rain had slowed to a drizzle, and the streets were empty. Wriothesley grabbed Neuvillette’s hand, pulling him into a narrow alley where the lamplight barely reached.

“What are you—” Neuvillette started, but Wriothesley cut him off, pressing him against the brick wall with a grin.

“Shh. No objections, Your Honor.” Wriothesley’s voice was low, teasing, but his eyes held something softer. He leaned in, and Neuvillette, for once, didn’t resist. The kiss was fierce, all heat and certainty, Wriothesley taking the lead with the same confidence he wielded in the Fortress.

Neuvillette’s hands found Wriothesley’s coat, clutching the damp leather as the Duke’s lips trailed to his jaw. “You’re insufferable,” Neuvillette murmured, but there was no bite to it.

“And you love it,” Wriothesley shot back, his hands firm on Neuvillette’s waist.

They didn’t care about the rain, or the city, or the fact that nobody else in Fontaine would give a damn about the Chief Justice and the Duke stealing moments in an alley. For once, it was just them—Neuvillette letting go, Wriothesley taking charge, and the world fading into the background.

Is it going to be possible for C2R1 Raiden to clear difficulty 6?

>the weapon skin rewards are time limited
That just killed all my interest.
They look cool. But only keeping them for a couple weeks is just annoying.

>>527273979
Wrio should've just let them rot in prison, he had no reason to be so kind. The way he's written he's clearly meant to be some kind of smug manipulator character with darker morals than most characters but he gives up playing mindgames and starts playing actual fucking quiz games with the traveler.

>>527274132
I dated a girl who plays Genshin for four months and her MC was Aether. Never asked her why, but it certainly wasn't because she headcanoned him as some harem king.

>>527274795

>>527274497


The weapon skins is for people who are both giga whales and who know how to play this game. They are for people like IWTL.

I have pretty strong teams. Have a c2r1 Mavuika with her best team.
Will likely have c0r1 Skirk. With her beat team too. The two best teams in the game, with good investment.

I will only get primos and the artifact reroll thing.

>>527274873
If you do the whale level difficulty (unironically need C6R5 tier teams to clear it) of the new endgame mode, you unlock weapons skins. The weapon skins are temporary and only last until the reset of the mode.

>>527274637

In the new endgame mode, there is a difficulty mode that gives you temporary weapon skins.
But to clear it you need to be a speedrunner whale.

Kids don't have a developed sexuality and lack libido, when a kid plays with a figurine of Batman or Goku he does so because he's self-inserting as them and likes to think himself as some chad superhero. When an adult man plays with a big tiddy waifu or a cute hebe, he does so because he finds it titillating. Trying to apply kid psychology to grown ass men is both retarded and wrong, unless of course you're a manchild who still gets off the idea of being the cartoon character that's being shown on screen.

you are all homosexual btw, since your account has kaeya by default, a black man no less.

i guess you are so used to coordinating your raids on cord you cant believe any interaction could be actually organic
sorry to disappoint you but this general is not your cords personal safe space if me posting canon monologues and images of girls fawning over the canon mc you are free to filter them

i recently started having weird screen freezes in genshin. image would freeze but audio would continue. no system freeze or hang as i can continue doing whatever else i'm doing and that is unaffected if the game hangs (even if it happens when i'm alt-tabbed). clean reinstall drivers, no change. so i began suspecting my GPU. which i guess was do for a change. 1070, with now a 9 year old chipset. honestly after the years of pandemic hoarding driven gpu price fluctuations and the fact i don't play anything other than genshin i've had zero motivation to upgrade. but damn, not being able to even empty your resin without alt-f4'ing and rebooting the game started to get tired real quickly. as i don't play any other game and have no plans to play any other games on my pc i started looking at cheapest price/perf options. thankfully the rush of 5xxx upgraders have made the second hand market pretty good for last gen buyers. i was able to snipe a 3060ti for $140. which was honestly less than i was anticipating to spend. i almost got baited into buying a 4060, but thankfully i missed out on the one i came across (turns out vanilla 4060 is 5-10% worse than the 3060ti). On the flip side 5090 for $2.5k? a fucking middling 5070 for like $800? holy fuck how do pc builers justify shit like this, it's crazy

yo I clicked through all the dialogue why does it reset me??

>>527274873
Have to beat floor 5 to get 4 star version of the skins.
Have to beat floor 6 to get 5 star version of the skins (just more glowing than the 4 star version)
You only get to keep the skins for a few weeks, and then you get different skins in the next cycle.

There have been several aetherpags, but the most recent is the wormschizo who usually just fought homokeks and femhoroidschizo. He was tolerable then, annoying yes, but now that he's latched onto pagther he's become a radicalised version lashing out at anyone not wanting a twink to feature on his screen.

>>527275609
This is wrong
It’s beat difficulty 6 at all for the 4* skins (2 minutes per boss)
5* skins are beating difficulty 6 with a total time of 3 minutes or less (aka 1 minute per boss on average)
Them being temporary is correct which makes the whole thing even sillier.

Just grab a used 30 or 40 series one if you want to upgrade. I would recommend getting 7900xtx since it comes with more VRAM than every nvidiashit. The price hike is getting ridiculous more thanks to Trump. You don't have much time.

>No one cares about
Pagther. No one cares about Pagther.
Here's some quick math for you. 66% of genshin players are males, 34% females.
71.09% chose Lumine. Hypothetically lets say all 34% of the females chose Lumine, that STILL leaves 37.01% of the 66% of the males who went with her. Over half the males mind you. Essentially anyone who picked Pagther is in the fucking minority no matter how you slice it.

>>527275615

>>527277989
You just need to max out reputation in some of the tribes which requires some amount of weekly bounties and requests but beyond that you can do regular area exploration, tribal quests and the random overworld quests for reputation
Pretty sure that you reach level 3 (out of 4) in each tribe just from the permanently available content

Is Ayaka a good companion for burst bot Skirk?

>>527277518
Sometimes they do, but it is pretty hard to moderate this place since the worst ones (like the person who avatars as Eula and the HSR character who looks like Kurumi from Date a Live and the one who claims all female characters sell poorly) ban evade. I have seen the mods ban them and in like 2 minutes they were posting again.
Moderating/vg/ is probably not easy.

>>527278090
No, it seems to be a pure flex thing. You can show off for a month, and then you better have the C6R5 characters needed for the next reset if you want to get them again. As someone who will never go such high cons, I'm glad it's not permanent content I can feel FOMO over.
But then again, there's dozens and dozens of FOMO namecards I missed out on because they were BP reward, so who cares.

>>527278202

They had some whales to test the mode in China and even they took a long time to clear it.

Knight only got tied to horse riding for a brief period, around the Norman Conquest in the 11th century. Before that it wasn't associated with the french for cavalryman (chevalier), only when Normans introduced a feudal system with a class of mounted warriors that the "cniht" stopped reffering to young boy servants/vassals/farmhands. From there it quickly stepped away from the role of cavalty and took a meaning closer to what we know today, where knighthood became tied with feudal obligations, with a certain social prestige. It wasn't long before the role became almost exclusively ceremonial in nature, with religious symbolism. Although they probably all knew how to ride for a long period and would use that in times of war since it is an advantage, that was just the preferred mode of transport unless roads were good enough for drawn carriages, and higher class people usually had the means to take care of the horse. They were not actually warriors for the most part, more like they had their little fiefdom to manage.

Hoyo's marketing team have absolutely dropped the ball on Skirk. Infact they've been sharting it up since the pretentious nod krai welkin whatever website released months ago.

It is quite interesting, even. They were having a nice thread, where people were talking about the game. Suddenly one of them posted some content creator talking about the game with tons of replies at a much faster pace than the thread was going.

>>527278717
Reminder that the Raiden freak is currently having a mental breakdown and spamming the thread with Raiden in order to cope with their sunk cost of 2 years. They will ask random questions like
>Is c3 Raiden worth it?
>which weapon to use on Raiden?
>talking about hyperbloom Raiden
>I will be rolling c2/c3 Raiden
(When they already have a c3+ Raiden they wasted 2+ years of resin on and its still a critfishing subpar unit)

>Random post about "endgame" so they can critfish and scream in frustration trying to cope with their sunk cost
>reply with "Genshin peaked with Raiden" and proceed to spam about Raiden in events
In order to help cope with their need to spam Raiden because they are having a mental breakdown. They farmed for over 2 years and still constantly struggle to contain their mental illness. They seriously need help as its not normal to think about Raiden all the time and they cannot function without talking about her

I don't understand Skirk's kit.
She has two bursts, right? But if you use her bursts you can't use her elemental skill?
How does it really work? You either play her as Hu Tao (never using her two bursts) or as Venti (press Q and leave, but when do you use her two bursts)?

Another little known factoid about horseback riding is that, unlike what's commonly depicted in media, native american indians did not domesticate horses and species that roamed the Americas had long (long) been hunted to extinction by local humans. Horses were reintroduced there by Spanish settlers in the 16th century and taught American tribes to make use of it.

Though the mounted warrior was the dominant force one the battlefield until the late medieval/renaissance period not all mounted warriors were knights or nobles, though you would expect the bulk of armoured cavalry to be made up of the aristocracy, but the exact ratio would depend on the region. The transition from warriors to administration is true, but I would not exaggerate the shift to be sudden, but tied more to the centralisation of the state and decline of feudalism, which was not a fast process and only really completing first in France in the 1600s under Louis XIV and Richeliue. Until the state could effectively raise and fund armies, the aristocracy would have to fight and be administrators. I would expect that the odds of a heavy cavalryman from the high medieval to late medieval period to be a knight or noble was pretty high, but it could also be a man-at-arms, often moreso the later we get.

>>527280856
>what's a team I can use Collei in
Collei, Nilou, Dendro Traveler, Barbara
Collei, Alhaitham, Xingqiu, Kuki

>>527280528
>>527280770
I thought that the game was going to be something like star ocean, aliens in a medieval setting

>>527280596
Do people get impressed by breasts when it's virtual? It's not like real life where a massive rack on a pretty skinny girl is a rare genetic outlier, some guy just clicked on a few buttons on the computer and made them big, that's all...

>good for (You)
Citlali
>bad for (You)
Skirk

Are they actually making Skirk pagbait? Holy fuck I may have to whale.

>>527280852
I didn't care about Citlali or Mizuki because they're filler characters. Skirk being turned into filler is egregious

>>527280951
>A girl must be shipped with my noncanon twink to have purpose
Fuck off

>>527280852
>>527280934
Nailed it

>>527280834
that's the thing, they'll probably just recast characters progressively as they become relevant again like how they recast Kinich when he became the main character of an event, some of them might take years if their VA never comes back

>>527280857
/gig/ is a cataphract general
fuck off back to /hrtg/ eurocel

>Wuwa's most hyped patch yet
>they are here in /gig/ shilling
lmao

>>527280736
I don't get it

>>527281057
I don't play ZZZ either but guess what ZZZkeks come here every day and now they talk about Alice and I have no idea wtf are they talking about it pisses me off

>>527280267
It is how Twitter (and other social media websites) makes money. If I had to guess, this is quite expensive, since Genshin has tons of mentions.
But Tencent obviously has a ton of money so this is not a lot for them. This is not even a conspiracy theory, it is the business model of twitter, facebook, etc.

>>527281156
>noncanon twink
xister I need you to take a step back and evaluate how many levels of delusion you're on right now

Is Skirk really pagbait or is she just nice to you at some point and pags decided to claim her for (You)?

>>527281112
>good for (You)
Firefly
>bad for (You)
Citlali
Vivian
Skirk

>>527281297
Nothing I said was wrong, you self inserting gay boy.

>>527281173
Should have replaced Dain's VA first, he is used in almost every patch with those videos about new characters, the JP voice is so boring

>>527281183
Me? I prefer winged hussars, personally.

>>527280779
why are people so fixated on Yanfei when her voice isn't even that deep compared to JP Yae and Arle

>>527280940
does it not work for hyperbloom

>>527281198
Alice ASSAULTED your brain

>>527280856
You need to be really close to the enemies to apply Dendro aura on enemies with Collei because of her passive skill dendro ring btw

>>527281091
Well you were essentially correct at this point, except for how we got cameras from fantasy France and a dimension hopping witch bringing back idol mags to already mess with the time period outside of the old giant robots (which to be fair, would be an FF case with ancient civilisation magitek). Now? Fuck it.

>>527280886
It won't confuse people. Just like Nicole won't confuse people either.
Alice is a beautiful name, but one who people use in real life.

It is not like they are using a name like Barbeloth or Istaroth or on ZZZ

>>527281381
The fact that they simply haven't bothered replacing him yet (he's not coming back even though the strike officially is over) just goes to show that they truly don't give a fuck about how people outside of China experience the game

sustainer waiting room

The Philippines should have been a region in Genshin Impact, but you all are not ready for that discussion.

Skirk being "pagbait" brings me great pleasure

>>527281420
Because she's a squeaker in CN and some haggy looking fox and a manish imposing assassin would be fine with having deep voiced compared to Yanfei, visually

>>527281338
trvke

>>527281569
many say this

>>527281567
this but brazil

>>527281426
Raiden sucks at blooming, use Kuki. Escoffier does nothing in that team, run Nahida or Loom.

>>527271812
$500 riven skin aesthetics

>new animation dropped
>nobody cares
fags

>>527281194
She posted her bunny girl cosplay. The guy replied fully erection and got blocked

>>527280856
wait for Dottore sis, she'll be his bis support

>>527280095
>2 VAs
And one of those VAs accounts for like half the voice lines in the entire game lole

>>527276410
>just wait for Arlecchino to have a super secret second form
Obviously. She'll be important in Khaenriah because of her dynasty.

>>527281709
the 0%ers are too busy crying about waifus in a harem game liking the protagonist, please try again in an hour

>>527281426
It can work but Escoffier's cryo turret is going to get rid of the hydro aura and can prevent you from creating dendro cores for hyperblooming.

>>527281709
>skirk
Was boring
>any new stuff like summer or sports
I dont care

>>527281593
except that every female voice in CN is squeaker, even CN Arle isn't even that deep

>>527281567
Yes I'm sure people would be thrilled to roll for characters named Nguyen

>>527281402
Imagine if they try to do this with Varka riding against the wild hunt in nodkrai, its going to be 5 riders vs some hilichurls like the inazuma battle

anyway i woudn't call being the eventual slayer of one of the sinners irrelevant so the entire argument is dishonest not just the part where heroines being both for (You) and plot relevant can't possibly exist even though they did since forever

>>527281183
Uh oh
Roman (forma de hellas) melty

>>527280585
this post really angered the pagcord lol they all came out of the woodwork for this one
