It is an absolute testament to the quality of music, the story telling and the emotional drive of every single one of these scenes that I can replay them in my head. Even if the Chasm scene with Xaio, Yelan etc is now forever imprinted with Nightglow 😥
10:22 It’s worth noting that Nahida was at he lowest following Dunyarzad’s disappearance from the samsara: all her self-doubt as an Archon, guilt for letting the Akademiya take power and harm Sumeru's people, and being unable to save the life of her most devout follower converged to make her more depressed than ever before (you can see it resurge in Act 5 when we had to free her from the Akasha). If Nahida couldn’t prove to herself that she was more capable and worthy than the Akademiya (and herself) gave her credit for by saving Dunyarzad from the brink of death, she wouldn’t have gained the confidence needed to actively oppose the Akademiya in the subsequent acts.
I respectfully disagree. I think the Traveler powering up the akasha to fight Scaramouche, Dottore's first introduction, Nahida and Rukkadevata, all of the Chasm Interlude cutscenes, a great majority of Fontaine Act 2 cutscenes, and most recently (and hands down my absolute favorite and the best imo): Focalors's sacrifice Kazuha's story wasn't fleshed out nearly as much as many characters from Sumeru and Fontaine(honestly I love Inazuma but Kazuha is just one mild case of characters who should've had more involvement in the story), so while I initially would've agreed with you, that scene has been topped by more recent AQ cutscenes in my opinion. I respect your opinion though, and I still love it, even though it's not necessarily one of my favorites *anymore*
The exact second "all in one,all in vain" started playing I knew it was scara This is what happens when you create a playlist for your favorite blorbos,I know his themes by heart
It takes place in both Liyue and Mondstadt. Although it does start and end in Liyue. Also, the Inverted Statue of Anemo Archon is what most people remember it by, so it's not surprising people think of Mondstadt first.
realizing that i should go listen to cutscene osts now.. every demo ost is embedded into my head but i struggled so much while playing along with this quiz. i really adore mihoyo's usage of leitmotifs
The music is why I started playing genshin in the first place, I love it! Also idea for a quiz - guessing the genshin character by only the sounds they make when walking or running 👀cuz they do all sound different for each character
As someone avidly listens to Genshin's OST, especially The Shimmering Voyage Vol. 1 - Vol. 3 (where all of these soundtracks are from) I can confidently say that I got most of these correct. The one that threw me off is Shenhe's one. I really thought it was the from the Original fight with Osial in Act 3's Liyue Archon Quest
The ones I had mote issues with were some of Liyue's and Mondstats, but Inazuma and Sumeru I have down, especially because I also have a fondness for the sounds of the music regions
Me, who's listened to them so many times and has perfect pitch and a music education and can sometimes guess a song from 0.1 seconds if I know the song: oooh a challenge right up my alley
Halfway into the video, I only mistook returning the holy lyre for Amber's first appearance Also, don't really remember 8, but the Childe motif gave it away Got 9 a bit before Bran and 10 at the same time, but my initial impression was Inazuma 😂 Didn't get 11 but at least got 12 instantly 😂 Hang by a thread, the chasm cutscene with Yelan, Xiao and others is my favourite cutscene ost, so, of course it was an instant got it
"That's mine! Don't even _TRY"_ ah yes I can still hear the scene oh so clearly *_sobs_* I got 35 points :D I'll take it considering that I haven't done half of these Archon Quests. It's so funny how I immediately recognised the holy lyre scene just from the trickster Venti motif haha that scene is hilarious. The way I screeched "SUMERU. INTRODUCTION" with no other explanation is absolutely insane. Version trailers were instantly eliminated, I know those by heart at this point. _You ain't fooling me._
I only got the Nilou Dance one and the Xiao Chasm one. Honestly, I'm impressed with myself for getting any of them, since I almost never pay conscious attention to background music during story stuff. :"D
I only remember a few of these. The one that I can tell from like first second is hang on a thread. That scene is so good I rewatched it over and over, to me it was some of the best scene in the game And the baisht one is so similar to osial one that it's very hard to tell the difference until the erhu part comes. But tbf I guessed osial so it's still points for me right?
My best ones : Number 5 in first 5 seconds Number 8 - first two seconds of tartaglia theme was enough for me to recognize the cutscene;) Dottore entrance was immediately right after his title appeared in music Number 12 immediately! Number 13 in first 10 seconds Number 16 in first 10 seconds 😎😎😎
I swear to God it's impossible to take those videos seriously when chat is just giving him answer and he can just have everything set up in a way that he sees chat without moving head
For bonus part I was so confident that it'll be 3.1 act 4 cutscene where kasala says Lord rukkadevata saved them!! Bcuz of the music only I was confident bcuz the same music is also present in that cutscene. I hope. Bcuz I have left genshin just taking a break so I might be wrong!!
4. is we will reunited trailer. the answer wrong. when the music start. I can see the lumine sit in ruin guard hand. and later the lumine just see us in high ground and walk away
That track hasn’t been officially released yet, anyways. Any version you see on RUclips is a fanmade cover. The official version will be included in The Shimmering Voyage Vol. 4 album during 4.8 in late July/early August.
the music used for destined parting was the wrong one, they used the music from the we will be reunited trailer instead of the cutscene. unwatchable, I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder
not true, the song IS called destined parting. you can look it up on youtube. also, i admit i couldnt find the song that actually plays during the cutscene, but this song plays BEFORE the cutscene. you can look up the quest and see for yourself also bran recognized it so that's all that matters :)
@@kenluxe don't worry I'm mostly joking (hence the "unwatchable I hope someone got fired"). anyway, didn't know destined parting also played there. though it technically doesn't count as a cutscene theme in the same vein. but that doesn't really matter, like I said it was mostly a joke. also, the theme you're looking for is called fateful departing. I honestly don't really keep track of which is which, I just kinda went with the name that was used in the video to make it clear which I meant, and also because I couldn't be bothered to look it up at the time.
@@phantomchaser0963 you gotta do what you gotta do to play the game, and for me it's playing at ass o'clock without any speaker volume while not owning any headsets or earphones
"Halfdan was never full"
AM I SUPPOSED TO CRY OR LAUGH??
Both :)
I somehow thought that it meant full as in "the opposite of hungry" for the first couple of seconds 😂😅💀
i mean his song is called unfulfilled wishes..
I mean 😂

Ohhhhh I remember the time bran BROUGHT THAT UP
Fun fact : All of these Josh Hutcherson memes got into Bran's head and literally after that quiz he keeps whistling the song every 15 mins 😂😂😂
Waiting for someone to make a touching grass joke
Let me help with that, go touch some grass (your welcome)

I never thought about that. Very valid take.
1:20 "There are always those who dare brave the lightning's glow"
Best moment in any archon quest
Debatable

Definitly not
Nah bro.
The exact second "all in one,all in vain" started playing I knew it was scara

20:24 "I can hear his voice" so true
Fun fact. Mandela's effect in genshin is We will be reunited chapter 1 it happens in liyue
All my friends thought it was in monstat
It does start from Liyue but most of it takes place in old mondstadt
It takes place in both Liyue and Mondstadt. Although it does start and end in Liyue.
Also, the Inverted Statue of Anemo Archon is what most people remember it by, so it's not surprising people think of Mondstadt first.
@@_dragonflies_ yea that's true

Bran did an incredible job! Really makes you appreciate the effort that's put in the OST of this game. It marks the scenes so well
24:57 "AZARRRRRRRR!" *HUGS AZAR AGGRESSIVELY*
Blusshy_ you are 😂😂😂😂
The music is why I started playing genshin in the first place, I love it!
Also idea for a quiz - guessing the genshin character by only the sounds they make when walking or running 👀cuz they do all sound different for each character
you know it's around Mondstadt and Liyue 1.0 if the music is more joyful and have the original Genshin leitmotif
18:56 always gives me goosebumps. One of my favorite cutscenes.
This video was 50% acutally guessing quests, 50% just vibing to beautiful music... and I'm _all for it!_
I love this kind of quiz. Makes me appreciate the Genshin OST more even in the cutscenes. That's why I love this game
The fact that so much of the music is so recognizable is a testament to the emotional ties and memories we have
17:17 that's penacony,a new subregion in genshin 😂😂

The ones I had mote issues with were some of Liyue's and Mondstats, but Inazuma and Sumeru I have down, especially because I also have a fondness for the sounds of the music regions
I immediately knew the one that was where scara just falls outta the huge ass robot probably because I re watched it 10 thousand times
I never realized Alhaitham’s techno motif has always been there before his release. It’s so recognizable too.
Me, who's listened to them so many times and has perfect pitch and a music education and can sometimes guess a song from 0.1 seconds if I know the song: oooh a challenge right up my alley
Halfway into the video, I only mistook returning the holy lyre for Amber's first appearance
Also, don't really remember 8, but the Childe motif gave it away
Got 9 a bit before Bran and 10 at the same time, but my initial impression was Inazuma 😂
Didn't get 11 but at least got 12 instantly 😂
Hang by a thread, the chasm cutscene with Yelan, Xiao and others is my favourite cutscene ost, so, of course it was an instant got it
I love how “the second!?” Is just a meme now
@Bran - hair is looking great my friend
6:46
I knew the cutscene from the moment it started. Simping for Raiden really paid off
When the "tununun tun tuntun tunununtun tun tun" hit every one knew it what was.
"That's mine! Don't even _TRY"_ ah yes I can still hear the scene oh so clearly *_sobs_*
I got 35 points :D

I listen to Genshin OST everyday and I recognize all of them under 10s.
I touch grass ... with headphones on
I only got the Nilou Dance one and the Xiao Chasm one. Honestly, I'm impressed with myself for getting any of them, since I almost never pay conscious attention to background music during story stuff. :"D
Pog quiz Ken
Thanks Ken
Who is Ken, why are they pog?
I joke, gg's again Ken! (even if you made me cry with Dunyarzard)
@@ZephyrBluePaddy no need to apologize zeph i can tell it's u🤣🤣🫵
An awesome quiz by the one and only awesome Ken
@@kenluxehow dare you
@@BlenderP984 u cutie go sleep alr
that moment when Raiden pulling out her sword was the best trailer ever made, or maybe because we are all excited with Inazuma when they launched it.
Damn, Bran's new hair is pog!
I'm surprised that I can still see the cutscene from the song, even for the quests that I only did once.
IVE BEEN WANTING THIS FOREVER WOOOOOOO
Love this trivia games, pretty fun to watch.
I only remember a few of these. The one that I can tell from like first second is hang on a thread. That scene is so good I rewatched it over and over, to me it was some of the best scene in the game

For me beisht vs osial are actually easier to discern at the beginning with the jade chamber
Letter from Ajax played at the end for number 8
My best ones :
Number 5 in first 5 seconds
Number 8 - first two seconds of tartaglia theme was enough for me to recognize the cutscene;)
Dottore entrance was immediately right after his title appeared in music
Number 12 immediately!
Number 13 in first 10 seconds
Number 16 in first 10 seconds

Furina bustin a move
The fact that i guessed every music and even know the title speaks more of myself and youtube playlist than actually me playing the game.

As someone who plays with no music... I failed to answer everything and just watch.

Did Bran ever did Ashikai's Narzissenkreuz video? I've been trying to see if he did or not.
Not having Sinner's Finale in this is a crime
But yeah it's only til 3.5 so understandable
That track hasn’t been officially released yet, anyways. Any version you see on RUclips is a fanmade cover. The official version will be included in The Shimmering Voyage Vol. 4 album during 4.8 in late July/early August.
I don't suppose anyone got a way to find the Thoma Raiden bondage art? For a friend of course
Bran kinda sounds like CheapPickle while humming. Hahahahaha
That was great ! An other edition ?
But Fontaine cutscene ost are out. Sinner finale on RUclips and
the music used for destined parting was the wrong one, they used the music from the we will be reunited trailer instead of the cutscene.
unwatchable, I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder
Kens been fired like 15 times already...
not true, the song IS called destined parting. you can look it up on youtube. also, i admit i couldnt find the song that actually plays during the cutscene, but this song plays BEFORE the cutscene. you can look up the quest and see for yourself
