They only do trailers for 5 star characters!! With the exception a few 4stars like march 7th cause shes the mascot and serval as she was a fan favorite
Actually, in CONTRAST to Genshin, they do switch the gender of the protag pretty regularly as you have seen. Which I absolutely appreciate. I personally don't play Genshin anymore but i also chose Lumine and honestly I think at least until Sumeru (that's where I stopped playing) the story flows better with their roles that way so it was always a bit weird for me with the trailers. Stelle and Caelus (Star Rails Protag names) don't give me whiplash in the trailers since they are both present and while I do adore my little racoon queen more, Caelus doesn't feel out of place like Aether does for me xD EDIT: guys I really love that you engage with my comment but do yourself a favour and also read the replies to get the full picture :)
@@surfersunknown Are you referring to the fact that both siblings are canonically in the story whereas in HSR if one exists the other doesn't? Or is there something about the story that i might not have gotten that directly canonises one set-up over the other?
@@siph0r154 in genshin each of the twins has their own !separate! role in the story, in hsr they are literally one character but of different genders, so there is no difference who will show up in a trailer
@@serinoneko8485 That i know. What i asked was if they meant that because of that, they believe that sticking to one character makes trailers easier to parse and less confusing or if they believe that the siblings have a *fixed* role in the story despite them being interchangable.
Even tho Im obsessed with hsr I still LOVE genshin way more and the reason which they show awther is cuz both siblings have different roles that mayter in the story, whereas in hsr its just genderbent mc and theres only one of them in the main story Its veryyy different
I'd love to see your reactions to all Myriad Celestia trailers and animated short films. After that, if you ever decided to play the game i'd be up to watch your journey!!
There is no canon protagonist, they use both time to time in trailers. Sometimes it's Caelus, sometimes Stelle. Also they are kinda the one thing, just with option to choose gender for player.
The writing they put in the footage of the events is an in-universe font Hoyo uses as a placeholder for the trailers. That way they can show off some bits and bobs of the event UI and gameplay without giving anything away about specific circumstances or rules from the writing.
Kafka definitely is one of the most prominent characters, and is instrumental not just to the early story but to the entire wider arc as well as the MC (trailblazer). I'm not sure I can think of a Genshin equivalent but I didn't play for very long. Perhaps Dainsleif-esque but Black Swan probably fits that archetype better, she's in an early myriad celestia trailer and shows up in the story from 2.0 til present and is obviously aware of things we aren't but is still very mysterious to us. Kafka is an HSR special lol, clearly a dev favorite and definitely fans'. Speaking of myriad celestia trailers, you should do those next alongside the animated shorts. At that point you should just play the game lol, i know I'm not the only one who loves seeing ppl get hyped over trailers and then ride the hype train into the actual game (which really has only been getting better since launch). Oh yeah and all the trailers use custom fonts that represent the language of that world, the Penacony one has even been successfully translated so they just casually cook up mini languages (probably more like ciphers tbh) for their version trailers so obscure details before launch 😂
@@alexanderwendehake9989 Even in permanent ones there are rewards that you can't get after the time has passed, for example the lightcone for Fox Tales.
The Astral Express, the Train, runs on a massive network of "Stellar rails", a set of invisible rails that visit every planet. It is basically your interplanetary fast travel.
Both Genshin and HSR version trailers purposefully twist plot points by mixing up the visuals and the VO in a way that can mislead or not actually give away the plot. I think it is a good thing over all. Gives you enough to get interested and curious but not enough to fully give away the story.
I mean, Jingliu's (the light blue hair women) trailer literally has a close up 2 second shot of her without her blindfold, and the whole duration of her without a blindfold is still quite long
In version trailers, Hoyo uses both Stelle and Caelus (female and male MC respectively). In character trailers and animated shorts, it's been consistently only Stelle thus far, AFAIK, so it appears she's the favored one of the 2 in this game. Which suits me fine, as a female player character enjoyer in any game that lets me pick. And no, unlike Genshin, there's no "sibling" or any such thing in the story. You pick the one of the 2 you like, and the other one is discarded, never to be seen again.
Welp just to let you know they just released a new character trailer and the next version trailer 2.3 should be out in a week or so so you should check both out at some point.
Don’t worry about the story not being as hype as trailer, HSR’s story is definitely a banger, especially the recent update. However, if people would rate the least liked story, it would be the second arc (or the third one if counting the space station). But even when it’s quite disliked, it’s still a very good story, just a bit of a drag.
Each version present as a new patch version of the game. It begin with 2 new 5 stars characters, for gacha banner for that period of version, those are limited time as usually. Then present a new map or game play with will permanent add to the game, and new event that like mini game which will add temporary for period of time to play. And new 4 stars charactor without trailer. Except the version 2.0 that a main new patch for currently ‘Penacony’ planet, they show most preview what we gonna happen.
In Star Rail, both Caelus and Stelle (Male and Female MC) share one story, unlike Genshin where Aether and Lumine have different storyline for one another, hence why HSR MCs appear in trailers. You can see Stelle in some trailers.
You seem like a cool chill guy so I'd absolutely watch your genshin/hsr playthrough if you decide to play /edit My bad, I see you already played some! Exciting :D Waiting for more :D
now you should do zenless zone zero(another very anticipated upcoming hoyo game) trailers since its nearing release in a month on july 4th : ). They have really good jazzy music too : D
the whole protagonist thing works well in star rail because they both don't exist in the world you choose to create one then the other one doesn't exist so the other one doesn't interfere with the story like in genshin where they both exist in teyvat hence why it could be confusing to swap between them canonically. edit yeah as a fully straight male I appreciate seeing another real manly man in a hoyo gacha game aka gallagher. It's not often you see a beard and broad chest in these games I wish they did it more they're my favorite male characters too bad gallagher just isn't that good because they gave him the 4 star treatment I did however e6 him in an effort to make him more playable.
I gave up on genshin the moment star rail got out it's legitimately good plus robin and Kafka & sparkle are the only woman i went out may way paying for them
I personaly dont vibe with the writing in honkai star rail and i cant be botherd to grind builds for story bosses but the game is a high budget spectacle for sure.
She's the most attractive character in the game. It's just natural that most people will like her. Not even Black Swan can compare to her attractiveness in general
They only do trailers for 5 star characters!! With the exception a few 4stars like march 7th cause shes the mascot and serval as she was a fan favorite
Bro saying march 7 is mascot, lets wait her 5 star and you know she is more than what you say.
@@faturrizka9262 she is the mascot??? Shes literally the apps face☠️☠️☠️ wdym
@@faturrizka9262 being a mascot doesn't mean being weak...
@@faturrizka9262 Do you even know what a mascot is?

There is a new character trailer for a character called Boothill. You should watch that one
I'd love to see your reactions to all Myriad Celestia trailers and animated short films. After that, if you ever decided to play the game i'd be up to watch your journey!!
Funnily enough, although both of the protagonists alternate in the trailers, in star rail the female MC (Stelle) is used the most
Because for obvious reasons, she's more popular among the fandom
Not relly. In fact, mMC used often.
I would LOVE to see your reaction to Myriad Celestia videos and animated shorts!!! And I will hope you would be interested to play the game soon❤❤❤❤❤
Space comedy was the first trailer I ever saw and it instantly made me want to play.

Don't worry most of the event is permanent 😊
Not most, but major ones for sure
the cool ones are permanent, the easy currency or extra relics are not, but nobody cares about those ones
@@alexanderwendehake9989 Dunno about you but I care about those more than the main events, easy jades and cool combat

I Recommend Watch Keeping Up With StarRail, Like Collected Miscellany in genshin, They Introduce Mechanic All Char in StarRail
You seem like a cool chill guy so I'd absolutely watch your genshin/hsr playthrough if you decide to play
/edit My bad, I see you already played some! Exciting :D Waiting for more :D
nope, the trailers use both MCs not just male
Yeah play it.
now you should do zenless zone zero(another very anticipated upcoming hoyo game) trailers since its nearing release in a month on july 4th : ). They have really good jazzy music too : D
Female main character is more comedic
Male main character is more serious
And the fmc is stelle
The male mc is caelus
the whole protagonist thing works well in star rail because they both don't exist in the world you choose to create one then the other one doesn't exist so the other one doesn't interfere with the story like in genshin where they both exist in teyvat hence why it could be confusing to swap between them canonically.

They don't use just male in trailers. They use both one after another
Yes. They don't make trailer for 4 star (except March and Serval), which is sad.
HSR use the thow MC for the trailers
Kylo ren react to space train
Definitely react to Myriad Celestia trailers next
or the Animations
Myriad Celestia ttailer and short anime
Yeah, give the game a try 🙂 its pretty fun 😄
HONKAI IMPACT 3RD ANIMATION/TRAILERS REACTION pls😊
Uhm actually stelle Female MC is literally is in almost all trailer
More than caelus male MC
80+% of player base thinks stelle is canon MC
Four Star characters don't get trailers, other than March 7th and Serval.... The rest of the trailers are only for the five stars...
P.S. The tournament was their version of a Pokemon fighting tournament event... like Genshin has the/had the Fungi Pokemon Event
They actually uses the female Main Character more, Her name is Stelle and it's the canon one probably
they are the exact same story wise, both are canon
I personaly dont vibe with the writing in honkai star rail and i cant be botherd to grind builds for story bosses but the game is a high budget spectacle for sure.
New people liking kafka probably the most generic reaction at this point.
She's the most attractive character in the game. It's just natural that most people will like her. Not even Black Swan can compare to her attractiveness in general
