    This is why Acheron is my favourite character. Even though I'm not an HI3rd veteran, I enjoyed the HI3rd references in the Penacony story.
    Even though she walks in the path of Nihility and in her life feeling like she's on a boat sailing through an endless rain, in this scene, she began to feel something warm when she interacted with us. Her smile is proof that she felt something warm like the sun rising in the morning.
    I'm so glad I pulled her and her LC. Her character development here is amazing. I hope we can see her again. Maybe when another Kiana variant comes in the future. 👀
    I'm kidding, but I hope there will be another Kiana variant in HSR. But overall, Acheron is a GOATED character.

      if we're being real, the only reason acheron wears her current outfit is to appeal to fans, because no way in hell would she choose to wear that.
      it's impractical, revealing, and just doesn't suit her style at all. the kimono she wears in the flashback is much closer to her actual preference in clothes.

    Acheron was the reason I decided to play HSR and my 3 month journey on the path of Trailblaze. I had completed all the story quests (It's was fun and good) and the only thing that kept me in game was the hope that 2.3 would not be our last encounter. I was excited when I saw her, but then I drowned in tears the entire dialogue. Seeing her smile was beautiful, but it seems that along with saying goodbye to Acheron, I'll be saying goodbye to the game.

      ​@@PsLove-el5bw Already answered by another person. I've done everything but High-end content, which honestly is just annoying and requires a full character upgrade, but when the game has resource locking like Trailblaze Power regenerating in real time, it's frustrating to wait a whole day to slightly upgrade one character.
      Yes, HSR will get a lot of cool characters in the future (Fox Man for Acheron, but honestly I don't care anymore) and reruns of characters I missed because I'm a newbie (Kafka, Black Swan). But after this patch, I don't see why I should waste my time on Gacha game when I can play other games. Like I said, Acheron was honestly the only main reason that kept me in the game. Since I won't see her for a year or two - I don't need HSR in my life.

      At the start, the red text felt somewhat ominous. Now, with context, I do think it's meant to represent the idea of a "memory." It's a little bit of color that breaks through the Nihility, something so deep-set in who you are that it overrides nothingness itself.
      I think that, just like how Mei subconsciously implanted her memories of an old friend onto the Trailblazer, the Trailblazer did the same to Mei. There is someone in the Trailblazer's past, obscured beyond their amnesia, that she reminds them of. Metatextually, it's also a nod to the player about all the lookalikes, but I don't think it's *that* simple if it unlocks such an important scene. You're given three separate chances to abandon that line of thinking, so there's clearly something else here.
      In short, I think this is both a message to the players *and* a moment of very important foreshadowing for the Trailblazer. That's my interpretation, at least.

    • @crowkoraki6910
      @crowkoraki6910 5 месяцев назад +4

      Now that I thought about it some more every time a red text appeared it's always Acheron and the trailblazer talking about if they met before, now what if that red text isn't Acheron doing the red text thingy, instead TB perceive it like that and hyper focusing on it as they are remembering something or feeling De javu as they say, and to get to this finally scene you need to keep insisting you met before then boom you get a glimpse of that vision between The past Raiden B. Mei and TB ? As if the conversation happened before
      At least that's what I get from that scene because that Raiden B. Mei form never seen in game right ?

      I can't agree with that.
      Her 2.0 presence she was just the quiet emo kid who didn't say anything substantial.
      And she had too much screen time with the Penacony Galaxy Ranger that i cannot imagine many people cared for that payoff and how long for how long it was slow dripped.
      Acheron is at her best when she wasn't doing that but the former was a substantial amount of her screentime.

      It's just meant to be another reference/clarification for players familiar with HI3. When TB says that they're sure they've met before, it's meant to be us (the player) talking about the Mei in HI3. Acheron could tell that TB doesn't mean her because she already clarified that the feeling she had before (of meeting the TB before Penacony) was an illusion, and also like you said, probably cause of her familiarity with variants from other worlds.
