I'm thinking of uploading more of these since they don't take much time to edit, but if somehow these are popular, I'll probably edit them and post in the future. Let me know either way if you enjoyed by leaving a like and subscribing.
I think there was some miscommunication between us because when I said greater lore, I meant something that contributed to the main storyline whether it'd be explaining a character or the world building like celestial nails, the gods or any kind of thing that's applicable to every person on Teyvat. Hermanubis is an integral part of the desert and how it's folk people evolved and how Deshret altered it. The tighnari story quest was a "good story" but it also explained or gave context in how alchemical and mechanical beings had this sort of conflict where you have to choose which way to go which was an addition to the lore provided to us in Albedo's event and story quest. The akademiya subjects with the people of different types of area of expertise with different Darshans foreshadowed how and why was there a need of 2 dynasties like Crimson Moon and Eclipse dynasty. That's further more explained when Faruzan comes into the play with a continuation of that story quest where she repairs Karkata and also explain how seals are made or work differently and gives us an idea of how and why did the eclipse dynasty choose machinery over alchemy and what potential it has apart from the traditional sense of alchemy and how Rhinedottir made different beings to fight and create chaos. Ayato's story quest also did help in explaining the baselines of the political environment of Inazuma and how it was exploitable by people in power, how things work, etc but yes it was a horrendous story. That's the idea of you have a character with a story and it's not necessarily about them but the story does help in building things up and Tighnari is a part of that. Honestly we got way more of his character exploration in the events of Sumeru but that doesn't necessarily make Tighnari's first story quest bad because we didn't get to explore his character as deeply as it was in the trailers or the events. But all of the story quests in this category will have some build up of a future project. Like a person just can't appreciate Nilou's story quest if he hasn't payed attention during Jeht's world quest and properly give us some information about how was Nabu Malikata as a person. Every quest has some story but how it's presented and it's role is something that contributes to the overal story. Like these quests aren't mind blowing or that good in terms of exploration of the character but the people who do read and like to think from a writer's perspective do appreciate it.
If I had to commend Genshin on one thing then that would be foreshadowing and that's why I said that the story wouldn't ever just drop the whole action without building it up first properly. Xianyun or Beidou's quests had "lore" but they didn't add up that much to the main story's lore which would consist of 1. Something about Teyvat which is common or is responsible for a lot of events, 2. Archon quests and 3. Khaenriah.
Another thing was about the descender stuff and about Childe's involvement. Yes Childe did not die but he did go through an experience and we didn't know where he was or did anything change about him after the battle so it brought clarity even though some people may disagree. Again it isn't necessary for Arlecchino to talk about everything because that's just not in her character. You wouldn't ever see Diluc, Alhaitham or Ningguang just endlessly talk about stuff because that's not in their character and Childe in this scene acted as the initiator while also establishing how the Fatui works for some people and how different members have different roles. Like we read the character stories and follow everything Genshin related but a lot of them don't so this serves that purpose here. And a lot of Ajax fans were happy to see him just as you are happy to see Neuvillete sometimes.
And about the descender part- We as the traveller don't have a single interaction where any Fatui member just outright starts talking about them knowing that you are a descender except Scara who had left the Fatui at that time. So it wouldn't make sense for the traveller to suddenly bring up skirk and talk about it in front of a potential enemy. Yes we as the viewers know that they know but it wouldn't make sense for it to suddenly happen inside the story.
And yes while I dislike the wait for some characters but ultimately it's a story and they don't write themselves in a week or month so you have to wait. Most of the books go like that and you have to wait for the story
Fair point on Tighnari's story quest. It was quite a while back so I only remembered the basic plot of how it went. I still think my main point of this video is valid, and that is Arlecchino should've gotten more screen time. Everything else could've been fine if left for a future quest, eg. The lore, world building etc. But that's just my opinion. I did end up reading Arlecchino's Lore (character details) yesterday and most of what I wish they had included in the story quest (Perinheri, Fatui, Her powers) were all explained to some extent. But these are mostly locked behind getting Adlecchino. So those who haven't pulled her most likely will either never find out or have to wait for months if not years to get more info about her. Anyway, thanks for the response. Hope you enjoyed my reaction and thoughts regardless of our difference in opinion!
