Xianzhou story line is basicly the Dainsleif arcs from Genshin. We get a bit every year slowly eluding to the endgame of fighting aeons. But it wont happen until the main story of collecting all paths actually finishes.
Ehh it's more like a combo of Liyue/Moonrite honestly. It's Hoyo so ofc they made the Chinese inspired place the hub we come back to yearly. I only say that b/c we get Aeon lore every patch and heavy Aeon lore in general comes from Herta/Simulated Universe patches more than Xianzhou, with them it's only ever related to the war on the Abundance.
In case people are wondering since chat seems confused... Being gazed by an aoen does not equate becoming emanator immediately so we still don't know if Feixiao became an emanator here or not. If that was the case, then trailblazer would have been the emanator of destruction, preservation, and harmony.
IIRC, all the generals are sort of shards of an emanator. The marshal(Fu Hua) is the one who got Lan’s gaze/gift centuries ago and she shares the power like how Diamond does. Where Diamond has each Stoneheart carry a cornerstone, it seems Fu Hua has the generals inherit guardians like the lightning lord etc(or its just some of them that do, Jing Yuan’s predecessor had it before him but that might just be a one off if the others didn’t get theirs the same way).
Hoyo always manages to cook when it comes to disabilities and mental health issues,I genuinely get shocked everytime I see how much care they put into characters with them I shouldn’t be relating this hard to fictional gacha game characters
@@PaulNapkinds That mechanic they introduced in 2.1 was such a gamechanger. Letting the story unfold in other characters' POV adds so much to the inmersion and helps decentralize the MC, while also letting you try them out in combat in case you missed them.
2:08:59 looking back at that story, there are really a lot of hints that everyone at the skysplitter in that moment are cloud knights.. well done writers.
Honestly, the fact that yanqing had mastered the move only by looking at it here 3:25:30 the first time he did it i think it was like a prototype thingy to it and now here
I hope it was a case of mad scientist ruan mei resurrecting, replicating, or reconstructing Tingyun, rather than her just laying somewhere and being rescued.
I think it is since her study is life after all, what was previously in Tingyun’s body was an emanator and she revived an emanator before, it just couldn’t last because that respective aeon was dead, but that isn’t the case here, if Tingyun’s body is suitable to host a emanator Ruan Mei might put an emanator of the hunt within her, as long as Lan lives she’ll do too, smth like that?
@@roanoord6436 that would be interesting too. My only thing is it would genuinely be bad writing imo if tingyun was alive and well before ruan meis intervention. Especially with the entire lore dump about heliobi that qe received and how they work.
2:02:03 I'm reminded of an old anime "Machine Robot: Revenge of Cronos." Whenever the villain of the week would ask the main hero what his name is, the hero would reply with "You don't deserve to know my name."
Moment that I want one day they put it on Xianzhou lore/story: 1. The second reunion with full team High-Cloud Quintet to fight something related to abundance follower or maybe to find way to redeem all their sins or maybe to find cure about mara. 2. The team fighting moment between Jingliu - Yanqing and Blade - Yunli If this happen, I don't know what to comment anymore... please make this happen hoyo!
I will easily admit I was a Yanqing hater for the longest, it got worse since I lost my Feixiao 50/50 to him but after 2.5? Damn if he is insanely hard to hate now. Also i hope Mina does play the Wardance Event since it honestly felt more like a Belobog continuance quest with the additional event battle mechanics a lot like the ghost hunting event back in 1.5.
I can safely say I don't particularly like him even still. Kind of felt like a lot of more interesting characters got neglected because they didn't like that everyone memed on him, so they pushed a redemption story at the expense of all else.
One thing we should really give them feedback for is making sure the VA has done de-essing. OMG I Love Feixiao to bits but the SSSS sounds are killing me
The more I watch the Fei Jiao reunition, the more worried I get. When I played through the story, it was wholesome. Now that I watch different CC's, why does it feel like Phantylia 2.0 :c
I don't know if thats patch is one of the best ever but it is damn Penacony lvl ^^ the stories we got since 2.0 are golden and even a filler patch feels like main story :)
This update was really fun, we finally have a good main story in Luofu . I really hope you play the event too! It easily became on of my favorites! PS: Can be a bit of a Spoiler - I really like how the events are canonical, like, the characters remembers our interactions makes the world much more alive. The Ghost-Hunting Squad is the best example I have about this, and the tournament event is another important one that made me like the characters even more than I was expecting
Remember one thing though. They said that Ruan Mei found a way to resurrect people as Vidyadarans, so next time we see Tingyun she may not be the same...
Additional info for people who are confused Fei Xiao didn't become a Emanator she was only blessed and gazed by Lan similar to the Trailblazer from the 3 Aeons who gazed and blessed them on their fights
So...Who's sad that HSR left us on the cliffhanger of the century and that the Luofu continuance ends in 2.5?... We won't get to continue this plotline anytime soon...🙏😭
On one good note, we got our tiunyun back later for an update, bad news, the damn bug that killed firefly home is part of a very stupid plan of killing gods. And Swarm was a galaxy problem that multiple aeon causing alliance to get rid of him. And lord if that giant snake that devour everything just cause joined, HSR is doomed😂, nanook who?!

The way Jiaoqiu dedicated his life to healing Feixiao, hunting for a cure. And now Feixiao has vowed to search the cosmos for a cure for him.
Well she doesn’t need to search that much, Ruan Mei has arrived

You don't say!
Classic HSR story quest. Grand battle, Engaging lore, and a litteral Cliff Drop (not cliff hanger, a Cliff Drop)!
Good thing Jiaoqiu and Feixiao are there, we would be attending yanqing's funeral rn if not
awwwwwwwww wonder what would happen if yanqing did died
Luofo redemption arc!
In case people are wondering since chat seems confused...
Being gazed by an aoen does not equate becoming emanator immediately so we still don't know if Feixiao became an emanator here or not.

I was not ready for this to be this long. This ain't no filler!
Yanqing wasn't spooking people they were pulling the GOAT all along
Tell that to my E3 sig lc Yanqing😭😭

Extremely loving Yanqing in this quest; his character has sure grown and the arc is quite beautiful. I'm glad you also see it, Mina.
