AS SOMEONE WHOS BEEN OFF GENSHIN FOR QUITE A BIT, SO THANKFUL I SAW THIS VIDEO BUT ALSO PANICKED SEEING THE POST DATE. glad to see this comment when i did :’)
did i just spend 4 hours watching genshin impact lore? yes. yes i did. am i gonna come back and rewatch it because i forgot everything i just watched? absolutely
yea for me the video just randomly played and i watched it for a couple of minutes and when i got out of full screen i saw how underrated this is considering how well it is made. insane quality!
It is because of rare uploads and videos so long they discourage retention. Those things are not good for getting big. This kind of content takes a lot to get big with, and it is going to be a while before a channel that has been posting for only 9 months and has only 11 videos becomes very large. It is, unfortunately, how RUclips runs.
My wife recently became OBSESSED with Genshin, she plays it every day and loves it! But i’ve found it very hard to follow along when she talks about it, and this vid has been a HUGE help in better understanding it. I’m only about halfway through, but a lot of things she talks about make WAY more sense now with this review. thank you so much!
Same OMG! I wasn't fortunate enough to be able to play it because both my phone and my old PC isn't suited for it. I can't even afford a new device because I'm freaking poor. Third-world problems man...
I completely missed the Mona/Fischl/Scaramouche event so never knew any of that existed and wondered where this random harbinger came from, thank you for this!
@Mx Mintey Honestly, that kinda weird imo to not first introduce the character in the main storyline. It's no big deal tho Ig, I can always watch gameplay of past events to see what I missed out on
I started playing at 1.0 and skipped nearly the entire story. Now, in inazuma, after a whole year i got interrested in the story. Without your help i couldnt really say anything about Mondstadt, Liyue or Inazuma. Thank you and every single second you spent on this 'project'
I have this so often in games At the beginning I’m like: Skip skip idc let me just play I’ll figure it out Skip skip skip HOW LONG IS THIS TUTORIAL skip skip Finally I can play 6 Months later of playing Shi- I never payed attention to the story
Even though i never skipped any dialogue in the entire game and genuinely interested in the lore since the beginning, i would never remember all the details in the story.. especially when the continuation usually came months after the first story told.. this kind of content really help refreshing my memory..
I know this is irrelevant but I did the same in honkai and when the story got interesting I didn't know what the hell was happening. the events are usually in the new story things because most players already got to that point. I neglected the story stages and now I have to catch up to everything so I know how you feel:/
I watched til the end and just realized that this is a 1-year+ old video. I'm impressed with all the efforts and details thrown into this one single recap video, and also the fact that how deep the lore runs in Genshin to the point that 3 hrs is not enough to cover everything the game has to offer (not to mention that it's still expanding and not gonna stop anytime soon). Also made me realized how much time could have been saved if there was a skip button all along lol. Thanks for the video, it really reminds me of what made me loved Genshin so much ever since the release. Looking forward to future volumes as well!
@@StrayMaverick Stumbled across your video and I am SHOOK at the quality of your content! You really deserve way more subscribers! You clearly put a massive amount of time, effort, and energy into this video and it shows. This is the best, most comprehensive video ever made on this game and one of the best video game story explained videos of all time! Thank you! My daughter absolutely loves this video game and I'm trying to connect with her and spend time with her doing something she likes so I very much needed this. I really appreciate this video more than you know! ❤️
As someone who has never played this, and knows they never will, this is great. I just wanted to know about the plot/characters in general because I really enjoy seeing the content for it, lol. Kudos to all the hard work you put into this!
This entire video is only recapping everything that has been told to us by the game so far. There are a million other things hidden in the lore of artifacts and weapons like crimson with of flame artifacts set or the 5 musical instrument weapons that adds to the story of the manga which is an entirely different topic. Not to mention there’s so much about khean’riah we don’t know plus the books give us info on Celestia and where it comes from. Not to mention the whole subplot of the gnosis’
This was INSANELY helpful as someone who played day one, left for a year and missed a ton of events, then came back only to skip through a lot of the text dumps because I couldnt read the font on my TV since my eyesight was so bad and I just wanted to catch up. Thank you!
You're doing a real service here, because of how Genshin Impact's story is released piece by piece, it was really hard for me to remember what happened and I wanted a recap before I get into the Chasm and Sumeru. You did such a great job on this and I hope you know that because WOW this is a long video! I can't wait for the next one (because I remember how much I loved the Inazuma story)!
i’m sure this has been said before here in the comments, but the official manga expands on diluc and kaeya’s relationship and goes into detail about diluc’s past and gives some background as well on events taking place before we arrive, as well as showing/introducing characters not yet seen in the game. im not sure if you covered this since i’m only at jeans story quest part
Most heartwarming act is, on Klee's quest... I feel warmth... Alice is a very motherly mom for her. I feel like crying at the time I finish the quest. Klee is her everything. And Alice is the best mother in the world for her.
@@ezgidefile the fact that she bothered to outfit a whole unknown archipelago with machines to rise it up, invite most of the prominent mondstadt characters, each with their own personalised letter, somehow even got the anemo archon and Dvalin play along, all to make her daughter happy, I'd say is more than enough proof that Klee is her everything. The reason for her absence has to be very important, for her to stay separated from her daughter, when we know how much she's willing to do for Klee
No, thank YOU for having the footage. It was a god send and I'm extremely, extremely thankful! Don't hesitate to reach out if you ever wanna work on anything together in the future or need anything at all. You're the best!
Thank you for putting the work into this. I’ve been looking for a comprehensive retelling of the story those far and this video was it! Can’t wait for part 2!
I cannot believe how amazing this recap was. Like... it was so accurate, humorous, and not to mention nostalgic. It was honestly amazing sitting back and watching this and remembering the year i've spent with genshin. The first day i logged in, the awe at seeing mondstadt for the first time, the glittering eyes i had for all the cool characters *cough*kaeyaandxiao*cough*, and the emotional responses i had to certain scenes. The awe at the lantern right festival, the sadness of venti's story, the irritation at scaramouche wanting to kill us on sight. just.. wow. You've 100% gained a new subscriber.
just realized that in the Chasm story line, Lumine mentions that she's been too focused on the "Heavenly Principals" and with the first cut scene, the unknown god introduces herself as the "sustainer of Heavenly Principals". Didn't recognize that without this video! Neat!
I’ve just started playing Genshin about a month ago, so this was really helpful to see some of the stuff I’ve missed. This is really underrated, sending you lots of love!
Same, a lot of it was confusing when the Traveler greeted people I'd never seen before like they knew each other (with the biggest shock coming from the fact the Traveler knew about Kaenriah while I had never heard of the place). They really should keep all the story important quests in (like the one where Scaramouche first showed up), even if those were for specific events.
Me but weeks ago. When genshin was released years ago I tried downloading it on my phone. But uninstalled it immediately since I don't want to get distracted because I have school and such. But when I downloaded the game again (just in AR 19 for now) I really enjoyed it but at the same time since I focus on my academics I play the game sometimes. But yepp I half regret it since I also missed some important events *sigh
I stopped playing genshin because i had no money for a computer and my iphone's storage was full. I absolutelly loved the game and hated it when i had to quit. I was really into it, it was my safe place and it trully means a lot to me. Unfortunately, because of health problems (which comes with bad memory and forgetting almost everything) i forgot almost everything. Now, after i was able to buy new computer, the first thing i did was to download genshin again. I stopped when i finished dendro chapter. But i didnt want to play straight away when i dont remember things. So, thank you so much for your videos, it helps me a lot and i absolutelly appreacite that you also sum up the events, as i started the game right after liyue release. Love your work, keep up!
I love how much relish is in your voice when describing pretty much all of Childe's quest over the ridiculousness, it really never gets old seeing the big bad eleventh Harbinger backed into these sorts of corners by his own determination to shield his brother's innocence 😅
I never skipped any stories, but I honestly didn't play them in the right order apparently. So many things make more sense now! Kudos to you, as I would have died in the making of this unholy long video!!
Wow, this video is amazing! Even being 3 long hours, it kept me entertained through the ENITRE thing! Great job!!! I loved how you explained everything and it brought back great memories of the events when I played them!
Wait ... You're also narrating throughout the video. This is perfection honestly. You not only have compiled all the important cutscenes and info but give a brief explanation filled with comedy and gameplay. Beautiful
As somebody who first picked up Genshin a month after its initial launch, completed the prologue archon quest, explored all of Mondstadt, then drifted to other games for the next 2 years before finally coming back recently with 3.0, I've missed a LOT, and I've also forgotten the smaller details of what's going on in the story, and who is who, so this video is a GODSEND. Got my personal homework set out for the weekend 😁
As a person who stopped playing genshin impact for nearly a year, I am so grateful for this video because I can now understand what I missed and what is happening right now as, honestly, it is very confusing. Thank you a lot lot 🛐 ... Lot. :3 You saved me for real! ^^
I dont play genshin impact but ive always been so fascinated by the intricate character back stories, the development, the plot, literally everything!! Like, one could literally write a book for each character!!! Thank you for this video!! I love how despite not playing genshin, i get to see what the world looks like!!
This is EXACTLY what I needed, as both a refresher and an explanation of the events I missed due to starting later. Thank you so much for all the work you put in, I'm looking forward to more vids like this as the lore expands! Good job and I hope you get some recognition
1:11:02 i don't usually comment before finishing a whole video but since you asked, no actually, it doesn't feel long. you did a very good job and i'm really enjoying it so far
i was watching while i redownloaded the game since it was taking about 8 hours and this really made it go by quicker and now i can skip dialogue without missing out
This is a masterpiece. The story telling, the humor, the pacing, everything! Loved it binged the whole thing in one go. Probably one of the best lore based videos to date. ✨
Oh man, I don't often comment. But. even though I just clicked to get a quick summary of Genshin story, your style really is something. Made me sensibly chuckle more than once. Just gained yourself a new subscriber.
we've been blessed with this rundown of all the lore, presented in an easy-to-understand, convenient, and hilarious way, without leaving any important info out the hero we needed but didn't deserve fr tho, *thank you*- your work must not go unappreciated- you've gained a new subscriber today, my friend
I still remember the summer event and just how much fun and wholesome it was. It always made me smile and just spending time with the Monstadt crew was a delight. And when Inazuma would come in the next update it really hid the darkness that was yet to come
Dude thank you so much for this video, i wasnt paying much attention to the story but you recapped it perfectly and you kept me interested the entire time. The jokes and the editing didnt faulter throughout the whole video thats awesome! I really appreciate you. I realllly hope you do a video on Inazuma soon :)
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad that I was able to help out! And yeah, I'll begin working on the Inazuma video soon. But this video took a long, long time to complete lmao. I'll try and do an update on it tho when I begin!
@@StrayMaverick I don’t know how hard it was to make the entire video, but maybe you should chop up each new area into their own Story recaps so it won’t be that bad🤷♂️
As of writing this, I've only watched 45 minutes so far, but I really enjoy your narration and a well scripted story telling, lovely sense of humor and I am not disappointed clicking on this! So good! Thank you
The amount of time, effort, and love you have put into this is dedication. This video is very underrated and I hope you will continue telling Teyvats story as we progress. I hardly like RUclips video but you’ve earned it.
As someone that's currently on AR 51 and started playing for the first time back in february,I somewhat enjoy the nostalgia I get from looking back at the beginning chapters and quests.It reminds me how far I've gotten and the feeling of major excitement I had when I started playing this game not that long ago
I never comment, but I had to here. Genshin is my absolute favorite game, and this video is the best storyline-dedicated video on the platform. It is aesthetically pleasing, funny, and flows seamlessly. The amount of effort put into this is admirable as well. Thank you so much for doing this, and I cannot wait for part 2!!!
As a returning player after two years (got up to Chasm), I needed some lore catching up to do. Kudos for your excellent work which is so helpful getting back into the story! So great that you also incorporate time limited events and character stories into the time line and don't just string together cutscenes but summarize the essential parts and with some tongue-in-cheek, too 😉. Thanks, will watch on now
spent my whole afternoon watching this, and it's so worthwhile. i needed a recap myself, since the lore details are starting to get hazy to me considering that it was a long time ago since i started.
I was thinking about watching the complete story of Genshin til this update some days ago, and the community post were u promote this video showed up Amazing and really nice narrated Keep the good work
First off, this is amazing and so well put together! Thank you so much for putting in all the effort in creating this timeline/history video! Second, just a note which has likely already been said, but Albedo is not biologically related to Klee, Alice, or the "race of longevity" (which many have presumed to be an elf-like species due to Klee's ears). He is (spoilers for his backstory) an alchemical experiement created by "Gold"/Rhinedottir, a woman from Khaenri'ah who also created the Rifthounds in Inazuma. This is why he feels a connection to Durin, because they are both creations of Rhinedottir and could essentially be considered siblings. Alice and Rhinedottir are friends and after spending his youth with his master, Albedo was given a note which told him to go find Alice and join the Knights of Favonious. Alice told Albedo to call her "mother" but he doesn't, rather refering to her as "Aunt Alice" as we saw. Despite this, he sees and treats Klee as his younger sister, often looking after her. So yeah! Not biological siblings or cousins, but they do have a family-type relationship!
Great comment! I made sure to word it in a vague enough way where this revelation could still be surprising in Part 2, as, like you said, Albedo uses the word "aunt." So I just say that he's "also within that family tree" without saying that he's blood related to them.
@@StrayMaverick Fair enough! Apologies for the long winded comment with the Albedo lore btw,, he’s my definite favourite if it wasn’t obvious haha. Also I realize this was created before/during the newest Albedo event so not everyone had access to all the Albedo info and if I remember correctly there was a bit of new stuff as well :)) Once again, thank you so much for the amazing video! The comical bits helped break up the long story conversation which was a great way to go about the video! I look forward to part 2 in the future! 💗
I would like to express my gratitude for this video. As a person who took a long break from this story, and likes to remember all aspects of it, this video really made my return so much better. I can't imagine how long this must have taken,, with the editing, script-writing and so forth. Thank you!
The way you explained the events made this really flow nicely to the point where I watched the entire thing and realised just how long I was sitting there for.
No joke, I've watched this probably 3 times now. The work you put into this hasn't been in vain, and I've watched it not only for the story bits, but also to relax to while I wind down and get to enjoy a retelling of the story up to a certain point so far. Thank you for putting this together~ (Plus the little edits and jokes and puns are a welcome bonus.🤣)
it could have been just a simple compilation of events but you made it so much more entertaining with the community consensus and memes scattered in between, can't wait for vol 2!!
As an AR 59 and early game player, I onlyJUST found this video and im listening to it as i work. You put so much effort into this im immediately subscribing. I randomly smile to mysel when you insert random comedic side notes "they were carrying tears around ?!?". Love that because it shows how invested you are in the game, and while a recap video is serious you also have fun with it lol, saying what a lot of us probably were thinking.
I just can't accept that this video has very little views and likes after 5 months. This is wonderful and so underrated. I couldn't play Genshin so I just watch these types of videos. THIS NEEDS MORE ATTENTION!!!
This video is mind-blowing. You narrate in a way that's clear and thorough, yet while the video is long, it doesn't feel like any point is drawn-out or boring. Audio and editing are both of great quality, and even the ad count stays at a more than reasonable amount. You definitely deserve far more subs and recognition, sheesh. Thanks for this blessing of a video!
1:11:02 Thanks for callin me special, man. And thank you for devoting so much tine to make this too! Im not able to fit Genshin on my phone, so learning the story this way helps fir me to still enjoy the game. Keep doin you!
Wow! Thank you so much for putting this together. Your 45-page script is amazingly hilarious, loved it! I used to play on a mobile device that freezes whenever cut-scenes start so I'm very thankful videos like yours that gives me the chance to view them again. The only part of the event order that is different from how I imagined is: the Unreconciled Stars event could be before the Windblume Festival (v1.4) and this festival is after the Lantern Rite(v1.3). But I guess since they're pretty independent events so this works too. Would love to see more story videos from you!
this video made me realise how much I forgot was in the story even though I only started playing since Eula's first release. Thank you for this video and reminding me how good the stories are in this game
Thank you so much for this!!! I’ll binge vol 1 and 2 because I only started playing genshin in 3.0 and missed so much, even new events because they were in regions I haven’t unlocked yet so this is a massive help for me! I took my time playing and only got to inazuma after almost a year of daily playing so there’s LOADS I missed - including many story quests that I haven’t started yet bc I wasn’t interested in the character involved. But these videos really get me engaged in those stories too :)
I hope you make a part 2 at the end of the year. It would be a huge help to new players and older players who don't have time to play all the limited time events.
I started playing genshin about a month after this video was posted. I've been loving it since, but I am so thankful for this video. Definitely a lot of information i would've not been too aware of or missed completely without watching this. Amazing work!
thank you for this, i only play genshin impact because of how good the graphics and gameplay is and never really focus on the lore, so this literally helps me so much, thank you !
I feel so happy knowing that I can watch this for all the events I missed. I started playing the game this year and I am at chapter 1 act 4: “we will be reunited” and I have missed so much story because I started late. I have so much appreciation for this video and the effort you put in to it. Thank you
Thank you so much for this! For someone who cannot play the game but still wanna follow the story, this helped me so much. I will be patiently waiting for the continuation, thank you again!!
I found this a very useful recap. Impressed how much of the story details covered I remembered, but watching through this helped me put the various details in correct order. Plus your story recap style was entertaining to watch & listen. Thanks.
This is such a great video. I love the format that you used to recap everything with the mix of cutscense and voice overs. I can't wait for the next part as Inazuma is the region I remember the least!
I decided to watch the video just to recall all the things that happened, since there's so much content and so much more to come. This gave me so much nostalgia, I really wish I could replay the game for the first time again. I also loved all the memes and the jokes, they made the video really entertaining. Thank you for putting so much effort into making this video, I really appreciate it, and I also hope you will continue doing this when Sumeru is released :)
I love this video, especially cause I missed a huge part of the story when I was on my semester abroad (server lag). It's insane to me that you took the time to compile the entire story! That must have been so much work. Thank you!
I suck at this type of game where I have to react fast while fighting, so it's great I can get a glimpse into the story and world building of this one. I really enjoy the character design and love it's scores. Thanks for bringing this all together....
please please please continue this story explaining thing it helps a bunch surprisingly enough. and it makes the game more entertaining when you connect the dots together. please follow through with chapter 2 !!!!
I’ll never be bored to rewatch and rediscover Genshin’s lore. Your narrative version is so fine to follow, thank you so much for this humongous piece of work ! I can’t wait to follow the next episodes. Worderful video 💖
Amazing work, I can't believe the effort that went into this video for sure. Gives me some nostalgia for the early days of Genshin... And honestly your narration of the plots really enhance it for me
I just now got this video recommended and as a lore reader I appreciate this so much. You've done soo much work and I really applaud you for that. Subscriber gained :))

She is not present for her kid like how is she a good mother while klee is on her own she didn’t even come visit her
@@ezgidefile yeah Alice seems like a female goku type parent
@@ezgidefile the fact that she bothered to outfit a whole unknown archipelago with machines to rise it up, invite most of the prominent mondstadt characters, each with their own personalised letter, somehow even got the anemo archon and Dvalin play along, all to make her daughter happy, I'd say is more than enough proof that Klee is her everything. The reason for her absence has to be very important, for her to stay separated from her daughter, when we know how much she's willing to do for Klee
@@jsw973 She did all that and still decided not to spend time with daughter face to face. She better have a really good reason for that xD
Thanks for featuring our footage! Great video, I know it took lots of effort!
No, thank YOU for having the footage. It was a god send and I'm extremely, extremely thankful! Don't hesitate to reach out if you ever wanna work on anything together in the future or need anything at all. You're the best!
As a beginner Genshin player, I would like to understand what the heck is going on, I appreciate this video 😌
Same. I wanna get back into Genshin Impact but I missed a Lot of stuff. This is extremely helpful.
Just starting out now finally- yes!!
Have you been able to catch up since? :) 👀
Thank you for putting the work into this. I’ve been looking for a comprehensive retelling of the story those far and this video was it! Can’t wait for part 2!
Part 2 was literally uploaded today
Hope you enjoyed Part 2 as well! Lol
I cannot believe how amazing this recap was. Like... it was so accurate, humorous, and not to mention nostalgic. It was honestly amazing sitting back and watching this and remembering the year i've spent with genshin. The first day i logged in, the awe at seeing mondstadt for the first time, the glittering eyes i had for all the cool characters *cough*kaeyaandxiao*cough*, and the emotional responses i had to certain scenes. The awe at the lantern right festival, the sadness of venti's story, the irritation at scaramouche wanting to kill us on sight.
just.. wow. You've 100% gained a new subscriber.
just realized that in the Chasm story line, Lumine mentions that she's been too focused on the "Heavenly Principals" and with the first cut scene, the unknown god introduces herself as the "sustainer of Heavenly Principals". Didn't recognize that without this video! Neat!
Replies... Error.... Missing
I’ve just started playing Genshin about a month ago, so this was really helpful to see some of the stuff I’ve missed. This is really underrated, sending you lots of love!
Same, a lot of it was confusing when the Traveler greeted people I'd never seen before like they knew each other (with the biggest shock coming from the fact the Traveler knew about Kaenriah while I had never heard of the place). They really should keep all the story important quests in (like the one where Scaramouche first showed up), even if those were for specific events.
you missed quite a lot i started during summer 2021 but i wasnt too intrested, so i just didnt do event to this day i regret it,
@Liana_Grill blame it on mobile players for not enough space
Me but weeks ago. When genshin was released years ago I tried downloading it on my phone. But uninstalled it immediately since I don't want to get distracted because I have school and such. But when I downloaded the game again (just in AR 19 for now) I really enjoyed it but at the same time since I focus on my academics I play the game sometimes. But yepp I half regret it since I also missed some important events *sigh
I stopped playing genshin because i had no money for a computer and my iphone's storage was full. I absolutelly loved the game and hated it when i had to quit. I was really into it, it was my safe place and it trully means a lot to me. Unfortunately, because of health problems (which comes with bad memory and forgetting almost everything) i forgot almost everything. Now, after i was able to buy new computer, the first thing i did was to download genshin again. I stopped when i finished dendro chapter. But i didnt want to play straight away when i dont remember things. So, thank you so much for your videos, it helps me a lot and i absolutelly appreacite that you also sum up the events, as i started the game right after liyue release. Love your work, keep up!
I love how much relish is in your voice when describing pretty much all of Childe's quest over the ridiculousness, it really never gets old seeing the big bad eleventh Harbinger backed into these sorts of corners by his own determination to shield his brother's innocence 😅
I never skipped any stories, but I honestly didn't play them in the right order apparently. So many things make more sense now!
Kudos to you, as I would have died in the making of this unholy long video!!
Wow, this video is amazing! Even being 3 long hours, it kept me entertained through the ENITRE thing! Great job!!! I loved how you explained everything and it brought back great memories of the events when I played them!
Wow, incredible praise. Thank you so much! Really happy that you enjoyed the video and I hope to see you around for future ones. 😊
Wait ... You're also narrating throughout the video. This is perfection honestly. You not only have compiled all the important cutscenes and info but give a brief explanation filled with comedy and gameplay. Beautiful
As somebody who first picked up Genshin a month after its initial launch, completed the prologue archon quest, explored all of Mondstadt, then drifted to other games for the next 2 years before finally coming back recently with 3.0, I've missed a LOT, and I've also forgotten the smaller details of what's going on in the story, and who is who, so this video is a GODSEND.
Got my personal homework set out for the weekend 😁
I normally would never have the patience to watch something like this. for 4 hours straight. but i did.
this was amazing. S tier storytelling
I’m so glad we immediately acknowledged how funny Paimon being called emergency food so often is
Such a quality meme
Yay, you’re back! Good to see you again. Gonna binge watch the entirety of this in 3.. 2.. 1.. now!
Lol it's good to be back! I hope you enjoyed the video. 😀
As a person who stopped playing genshin impact for nearly a year, I am so grateful for this video because I can now understand what I missed and what is happening right now as, honestly, it is very confusing.
Thank you a lot lot 🛐 ... Lot. :3
You saved me for real! ^^
I dont play genshin impact but ive always been so fascinated by the intricate character back stories, the development, the plot, literally everything!! Like, one could literally write a book for each character!!! Thank you for this video!! I love how despite not playing genshin, i get to see what the world looks like!!
This is going straight into my 'favorite multiple hours long comfort videos' playlist. Thank you for your hard work❤
This is EXACTLY what I needed, as both a refresher and an explanation of the events I missed due to starting later. Thank you so much for all the work you put in, I'm looking forward to more vids like this as the lore expands! Good job and I hope you get some recognition
1:11:02 i don't usually comment before finishing a whole video but since you asked, no actually, it doesn't feel long. you did a very good job and i'm really enjoying it so far
Lol aww, thank you so much. That really means a lot.
i was watching while i redownloaded the game since it was taking about 8 hours and this really made it go by quicker and now i can skip dialogue without missing out
This is a masterpiece. The story telling, the humor, the pacing, everything! Loved it binged the whole thing in one go. Probably one of the best lore based videos to date. ✨
I really wish the unknown stars quest would have been made permanent I feel like it’s such a vital piece of lore that new players missed out on
Oh man, I don't often comment. But. even though I just clicked to get a quick summary of Genshin story, your style really is something. Made me sensibly chuckle more than once. Just gained yourself a new subscriber.
we've been blessed with this rundown of all the lore, presented in an easy-to-understand, convenient, and hilarious way, without leaving any important info out
the hero we needed but didn't deserve
fr tho, *thank you*- your work must not go unappreciated- you've gained a new subscriber today, my friend
I still remember the summer event and just how much fun and wholesome it was. It always made me smile and just spending time with the Monstadt crew was a delight. And when Inazuma would come in the next update it really hid the darkness that was yet to come
Dude thank you so much for this video, i wasnt paying much attention to the story but you recapped it perfectly and you kept me interested the entire time. The jokes and the editing didnt faulter throughout the whole video thats awesome! I really appreciate you. I realllly hope you do a video on Inazuma soon :)
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad that I was able to help out! And yeah, I'll begin working on the Inazuma video soon. But this video took a long, long time to complete lmao. I'll try and do an update on it tho when I begin!
@@StrayMaverick I don’t know how hard it was to make the entire video, but maybe you should chop up each new area into their own Story recaps so it won’t be that bad🤷♂️
As of writing this, I've only watched 45 minutes so far, but I really enjoy your narration and a well scripted story telling, lovely sense of humor and I am not disappointed clicking on this! So good! Thank you
One of the best Lore videos I've ever seen, gonna watch part 2 right after I'm finished :D
The amount of time, effort, and love you have put into this is dedication. This video is very underrated and I hope you will continue telling Teyvats story as we progress. I hardly like RUclips video but you’ve earned it.
Thanks you now I can fully understand the story since I started playing a month ago
Yay! I'm so glad that I was able to help someone with this.
As someone that's currently on AR 51 and started playing for the first time back in february,I somewhat enjoy the nostalgia I get from looking back at the beginning chapters and quests.It reminds me how far I've gotten and the feeling of major excitement I had when I started playing this game not that long ago
Jeez you sped through the game
I never comment, but I had to here. Genshin is my absolute favorite game, and this video is the best storyline-dedicated video on the platform. It is aesthetically pleasing, funny, and flows seamlessly. The amount of effort put into this is admirable as well. Thank you so much for doing this, and I cannot wait for part 2!!!
As a returning player after two years (got up to Chasm), I needed some lore catching up to do. Kudos for your excellent work which is so helpful getting back into the story! So great that you also incorporate time limited events and character stories into the time line and don't just string together cutscenes but summarize the essential parts and with some tongue-in-cheek, too 😉. Thanks, will watch on now
spent my whole afternoon watching this, and it's so worthwhile. i needed a recap myself, since the lore details are starting to get hazy to me considering that it was a long time ago since i started.
Lol wow, it's wild to hear that someone spent an afternoon watching something I made. Really means a lot to me. So, thank you!
Been playing since day 1 there’s so much that has become hazy after so long
I was thinking about watching the complete story of Genshin til this update some days ago, and the community post were u promote this video showed up
Amazing and really nice narrated
Keep the good work
Thank you! Really appreciate the kind words and I'm glad you were able to see the video
First off, this is amazing and so well put together! Thank you so much for putting in all the effort in creating this timeline/history video! Second, just a note which has likely already been said, but Albedo is not biologically related to Klee, Alice, or the "race of longevity" (which many have presumed to be an elf-like species due to Klee's ears). He is (spoilers for his backstory) an alchemical experiement created by "Gold"/Rhinedottir, a woman from Khaenri'ah who also created the Rifthounds in Inazuma. This is why he feels a connection to Durin, because they are both creations of Rhinedottir and could essentially be considered siblings. Alice and Rhinedottir are friends and after spending his youth with his master, Albedo was given a note which told him to go find Alice and join the Knights of Favonious. Alice told Albedo to call her "mother" but he doesn't, rather refering to her as "Aunt Alice" as we saw. Despite this, he sees and treats Klee as his younger sister, often looking after her. So yeah! Not biological siblings or cousins, but they do have a family-type relationship!
Great comment! I made sure to word it in a vague enough way where this revelation could still be surprising in Part 2, as, like you said, Albedo uses the word "aunt." So I just say that he's "also within that family tree" without saying that he's blood related to them.
@@StrayMaverick Fair enough! Apologies for the long winded comment with the Albedo lore btw,, he’s my definite favourite if it wasn’t obvious haha. Also I realize this was created before/during the newest Albedo event so not everyone had access to all the Albedo info and if I remember correctly there was a bit of new stuff as well :)) Once again, thank you so much for the amazing video! The comical bits helped break up the long story conversation which was a great way to go about the video! I look forward to part 2 in the future! 💗
I would like to express my gratitude for this video. As a person who took a long break from this story, and likes to remember all aspects of it, this video really made my return so much better.
I can't imagine how long this must have taken,, with the editing, script-writing and so forth. Thank you!
The way you explained the events made this really flow nicely to the point where I watched the entire thing and realised just how long I was sitting there for.
No joke, I've watched this probably 3 times now. The work you put into this hasn't been in vain, and I've watched it not only for the story bits, but also to relax to while I wind down and get to enjoy a retelling of the story up to a certain point so far. Thank you for putting this together~ (Plus the little edits and jokes and puns are a welcome bonus.🤣)
We really need event quests to make reruns for people that missed them
it could have been just a simple compilation of events but you made it so much more entertaining with the community consensus and memes scattered in between, can't wait for vol 2!!
As an AR 59 and early game player, I onlyJUST found this video and im listening to it as i work. You put so much effort into this im immediately subscribing. I randomly smile to mysel when you insert random comedic side notes "they were carrying tears around ?!?". Love that because it shows how invested you are in the game, and while a recap video is serious you also have fun with it lol, saying what a lot of us probably were thinking.
I've been calling paimon a "floating diaper baby"
until minute later I called her emergency food
3:00:45 had me falling off my chair 😂 I find your narration so hilarious. You are so underrated and deserve more recognition.
The amount of time this took honestly was probably a lot. More than I can imagine. Props
Can't wait for a part 2 for this as more content have been released since the making of this video. This is really good.
I am really super grateful for this video! Over the years my memory has been starting to get hazy so it's really nice to revisit these moments 😄✨
Thanks for the cool video. You did a great job and I hope you get the recognition you deserve. Your commentating is entertaining and funny.
This type and quality of content is amazing, I think it’s really cool that you made this so in depth
I just can't accept that this video has very little views and likes after 5 months. This is wonderful and so underrated. I couldn't play Genshin so I just watch these types of videos. THIS NEEDS MORE ATTENTION!!!
This video is mind-blowing. You narrate in a way that's clear and thorough, yet while the video is long, it doesn't feel like any point is drawn-out or boring. Audio and editing are both of great quality, and even the ad count stays at a more than reasonable amount. You definitely deserve far more subs and recognition, sheesh. Thanks for this blessing of a video!
1:11:02 Thanks for callin me special, man. And thank you for devoting so much tine to make this too! Im not able to fit Genshin on my phone, so learning the story this way helps fir me to still enjoy the game. Keep doin you!
I loved this recap. I will wait for volume 2 for as long as it takes
How does this ONLY have 270k views. This quality and the length is deserving of at least a million.
And 1 million it got as deserved
And 1 million it got as deserved
1.4 million now
Wow! Thank you so much for putting this together. Your 45-page script is amazingly hilarious, loved it! I used to play on a mobile device that freezes whenever cut-scenes start so I'm very thankful videos like yours that gives me the chance to view them again.
The only part of the event order that is different from how I imagined is: the Unreconciled Stars event could be before the Windblume Festival (v1.4) and this festival is after the Lantern Rite(v1.3). But I guess since they're pretty independent events so this works too.
Would love to see more story videos from you!
this video made me realise how much I forgot was in the story even though I only started playing since Eula's first release. Thank you for this video and reminding me how good the stories are in this game
Thank you so much for this!!! I’ll binge vol 1 and 2 because I only started playing genshin in 3.0 and missed so much, even new events because they were in regions I haven’t unlocked yet so this is a massive help for me!
I took my time playing and only got to inazuma after almost a year of daily playing so there’s LOADS I missed - including many story quests that I haven’t started yet bc I wasn’t interested in the character involved. But these videos really get me engaged in those stories too :)
Thank you for doing this! Seems like there's nowhere else to find this info with the actual footage included.
I hope you make a part 2 at the end of the year. It would be a huge help to new players and older players who don't have time to play all the limited time events.
I started playing genshin about a month after this video was posted. I've been loving it since, but I am so thankful for this video. Definitely a lot of information i would've not been too aware of or missed completely without watching this. Amazing work!
thank you for this, i only play genshin impact because of how good the graphics and gameplay is and never really focus on the lore, so this literally helps me so much, thank you !
not gonna lie this is the funniest genshin video ive watched and it was really nice how you edited everything so it was easier to follow
I’ve watched this at least 3 times since it came out, so I hope that puts a smile on your face
I feel so happy knowing that I can watch this for all the events I missed. I started playing the game this year and I am at chapter 1 act 4: “we will be reunited” and I have missed so much story because I started late. I have so much appreciation for this video and the effort you put in to it. Thank you
Thank you so much for this! For someone who cannot play the game but still wanna follow the story, this helped me so much. I will be patiently waiting for the continuation, thank you again!!
Oh my god, the AMOUNT OF TIME that must have taken you to make this video... Thank you so much for your efforts!!! We appreciate it infinitely!!
I found this a very useful recap. Impressed how much of the story details covered I remembered, but watching through this helped me put the various details in correct order. Plus your story recap style was entertaining to watch & listen. Thanks.
This is such a great video. I love the format that you used to recap everything with the mix of cutscense and voice overs. I can't wait for the next part as Inazuma is the region I remember the least!
This was funnier than i expected ... i expected a boring recap due to length but DAMNNN was that so fun
I decided to watch the video just to recall all the things that happened, since there's so much content and so much more to come. This gave me so much nostalgia, I really wish I could replay the game for the first time again. I also loved all the memes and the jokes, they made the video really entertaining. Thank you for putting so much effort into making this video, I really appreciate it, and I also hope you will continue doing this when Sumeru is released :)
The first chapters of genshin in monstadt were truly the best. Those chapters were peak genshin lore
Nice writting and narrations really loved it
I love this video, especially cause I missed a huge part of the story when I was on my semester abroad (server lag).
It's insane to me that you took the time to compile the entire story! That must have been so much work. Thank you!
I suck at this type of game where I have to react fast while fighting, so it's great I can get a glimpse into the story and world building of this one. I really enjoy the character design and love it's scores. Thanks for bringing this all together....
please please please continue this story explaining thing it helps a bunch surprisingly enough. and it makes the game more entertaining when you connect the dots together. please follow through with chapter 2 !!!!
I’ll never be bored to rewatch and rediscover Genshin’s lore. Your narrative version is so fine to follow, thank you so much for this humongous piece of work ! I can’t wait to follow the next episodes. Worderful video 💖
Thank u fr this...Eagerly waiting for vol 2!!
Great video. Saved me so much trouble and I love all the little jokes in there. I just think doing a project this big with high quality is fantastic.
Amazing work, I can't believe the effort that went into this video for sure.
Gives me some nostalgia for the early days of Genshin... And honestly your narration of the plots really enhance it for me
I just now got this video recommended and as a lore reader I appreciate this so much. You've done soo much work and I really applaud you for that. Subscriber gained :))
I've been waiting for this video for a long time. Glad it's finally out
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed it
Bruhh you're the best at story telling. You included it all
