    Before dendro was released, there was an interview with the game devs explaining dendro and its reactions. Though Bloom and Burning made sense, and they said was based on real life, any electro reactions with dendro were “new reactions” that they made up, probably to satisfy the communities demand for “electro buff” that they’ve been begging for.

    Love the vid but I will have to point out that Teyvat has its own laws, and the HoYo team said that the elements are based on different concepts, and whilst dendro is based around life, electro is based around energy, so with that it definitely makes sense that the concepts of life and energy combining would result in the growth of different plant life and enemies

    • @effortlessfury
      @effortlessfury Год назад +8

      Many things in the game have core themes that they work from but that doesn't mean their reasoning and design decisions stop there. Every nation has an Archon with a theme that will drive its conflict, but they're also based on real-world nations and cultures. There are references to books, historical figures, even music (Bohemian Rhapsody anyone?).
      I don't know why everyone feels the need to see "well actually, it's not that deep" when not only can it very well be that deep, but going that in depth is the entertaining part.

      The number of references are enormous. You can easily search up a list of them, including Ei's name being Beelzebul, references to the real life vs. fantasy in not only the False Sky but in dialogue during the Archon Quest, the fact that he wished he'd never been born at all, and his Miscellany video's title being "Any Way the Wind Blows." It's...bonkers the number of references to Bohemian Rhapsody they threw into his character.
      Oh, and not to mention his theme's name on the OST is "Ominous Fandango," and his boss music opens with a flamenco rhythm, of which the Fandango is a style of.

    The character mentioned wanderer has an unknown age. According to lore he should be older than the Raiden shogun. But he can’t be older than Ei herself for she created him. Shogun is about 3000 and of course ei has no distinct age. But seeing she fought in the archon war she should have an age similar to Venti or everyone’s old grandpa Zhongli. It seems easy BUT. He is supposed to be younger than Yae Miko who is CLAIMED to be 500 from the five tails seen in official art and her burst.

I mean, genshin has a lot of lore inside. He would have to make multiple part explenation what is already going on and then start making theroise for another 3 episodes. Its too big for him imo.

    • @sweetflowersucrose9839
      @sweetflowersucrose9839 Год назад +144

      Yes, but it is actually a specific reason why its only those 3 elements have reactions and it’s related to the lore. It was said in a interview with the devs that dendro was the final peice in the elemental puzzle which can be taken literally. Since if you were to draw up all of the elements and connect them by their reactions in a particular way, it creates the appearance of a symbol called the tree of life. I can’t remember it all of the information on why this is important so I can’t do it justice but if I find the vid I’ll add a link cuz it’s a really well made analysis but to make a long story short, just like every single other tiny detail, it has a freaky amount of symbolism and meaning to Genshins overarching story.

    All very cool to see how the dendro reactions have real world counterparts-ish. Though I curious how he could connect the oft forgotten reaction of Burgeon. Dendro+hydro+Pyro basically making the seeds from bloom landmines that explode on command.

      The "on command" part is obviously for gameplay purposes, but, going off of this video, the explosions can be attributed to the same thing talked about with lightning striking a tree. Heated water becomes steam. When trapped inside a plant, this generates enough pressure to explode out. Basically, just think of it like popcorn.

      @@SgtSupaman actually, there are some plants that disperse their seeds this way! Touch-me-not is a particularly well known one, and the sandbox tree has fruits that explode when they ripen and can fling their seeds up to 100 meters away. There are also some plants whose seedpods explode upon contact with water, or when they ripen, or just come into contact with anything.

      @@privateuser3726 True, but then why does the explosion get bigger when the Creeper is charged. TNT could be the reason it explodes by default but this could be the reason the explosion gets bigger. Since lightning could possibly super charge the gun powder in the TNT. I'm not really qualified to give an explanation just food for thought.

    As much as I wanna be surprised by this theory I think that the devs at Mihoyo talked about some of the research that went into the dendro reactions during a livestream prior to the release of Sumeru. It's still fun to watch this tho,,, even if I'm waiting on the Fnaf timeline lol
